You couldnt be a "hair metal" or hard rock band in the 80s without a slow ballad on your album. This was one of the most popular in its day, definitely the best song from Poison. Their guitar player, CC Deville is very underrated imo too.

All hard rock bands had Power Ballads: Bob Jovi had a few including “I’ll Be There For You”. Foreigner: “I Want To Know What Love Is”. Skid Row: “I Remember You”. Heart: “Alone”. Every other song by Journey, on and on…….

I played in a rock roll band on the east coast in the mid 80s. I met Bret Michaels (the singer) in late '85 , early '86 right when they were out to promote their new album coming out. I had no clue who he was because they were only really known in the LA scene at that point. The minute they took the stage and seeing the crowd's reaction, I knew they would make it big. 6 or so months later, they went from relatively smaller to mid sized clubs to selling out arenas. It's cool to see fellow musicians start out like this and make it big in short order. It's also a rarity since millions of us musicians all tried to make it. They hit at the right time with the right formula, the right songs and the right look. If they would have hit the scene just 5 years later, they would have never been as big.

Poison is still rocking today with all four original band members with the same high energy stage show fun concerts! Their music is mostly about just cutting loose and having “ nothing but a good time “ and that’s exactly what going to a Poison concert has and still is like today ! Check out some of their “ live” music videos as well as their original made for MTV videos from the ‘80’s … Like … “ Talk dirty to Me”, Fallen Angel, Unskinny Bop, I want Action, Ride the Wind, Look what the cat dragged in, and so many more !

The lead singer, Bret Michaels, says that he wrote this song when he was out on tour, called home to talk to his girlfriend and heard her new boyfriend in the background. He sat down that night and wrote the lyrics. The girlfriend in question says that Bret was the one cheating, not her. But that's what the song is about. Relationship may be a beautiful thing, but there's always a thorn in it to stick you. This was Poison's only number one hit, although they had several others that charted quite well. I've seen them in concert eight times now, and they're one of the few bands of that era that still sound amazing. For me, their best ballad is actually a different song, "Something to Believe In." I highly recommend you check out that one.

Good 80s band. Brett Michaels wrote this about his stripper girlfriend who dumped him. Good songwriter. Guitar solo by CC deVille. He was top rated guitarist until he hooked up with cocaine and alcohol. Self destructed. Brett never got over this breakup. Although he could have any girl, he pick one to have children with but never married. And remember every rock album is required to have power ballads. Poison had some good old fashion rock songs too. I suggest you check out Skid Row. Best ballad .. I Remember You. Best rock vocals .. Wasted Time. This song written about their friend Steven Adler, drummer for Guns N Roses, almost died from heroin addiction. The music video is stunning. You will freak over the vocals.

All those years when you thought Rock music was just a lot of screaming. That's one of the things I love about getting older. I'm 60. I have music going back to the 40's. Woody Guthries 'Dust bowl ballards.' The ballard of pretty boy floyd is a story in a song. Billie Holiday. Loved Ice-t since 1987. When he released "power" with Evil E, spinning some serious vinyl. That led me to some really serious millitant artists. Original G stuff. By the way. Ice-t has one of the most serious Rock bands in existance. "Bodycount". Incredible band. Ernie-c on,guitar, that will stun you. The point I'm trying to make. Very badly It seems. Is that you don't have to stop being into one genre of music, to get into another. Everyone can enjoy as much or as little as they like. Peace out.
