My best friends mother’s name was Jane. I’m an only child and I grew up sleeping on their couch most weekends. She was a second mother to me. She died of cancer when we were 21 and she was 41. I still think about her most every day, and this song has special meaning to me. I’m 50 now and it’s hard to believe I’m so much older today than she was when she died. And he’s still my best friend. If I would have had a daughter, I would have asked his permission to name her Jane. Hold the ones you love close, it can change in a moment. I love you mama.

[@davesalsberry4810]

Man it's scary how similar your story is to mine. My best friends momma was named Jane and she died of stomach cancer when I was 19. 1993. She was hard on us but fair and was a great lady. I don't think she liked me very much but I always admired her strength. He and I would always make it home for headbangers ball every Saturday night and she would let us crank up volume as much as we wanted. Great times.

I went from 29 looking to probably late 40's and it truly makes me sick. I can't stand going to where ever, Walmart or a store and being called sir. They'll say thank you sir, like it just makes me feel so damn old and i hate it. And then when i see people walking into Walmart or just out in public and people see me from a distance and think i'm young and then they get up close and see that i'm older and give me that phony dismissive smile. Can't stand that either. I want to be me again and live somewhere where age doesn't matter.

@@shanebroussard6262 It would have been cool if the two genres had been able to coexist. I love grunge, but it sort of killed the fun, party attitude that a lot of the hair metal thrived on. Grunge was great, but it was also kind of a buzzkill, attitude wise. Sometimes you have to shrug shit off and enjoy life, and the hair metal attitude sort of lived on that. Plus, a lot of the music was really good. Oh well. Both genres are gone now and were in the new musical era of whatever.

Tracii went straight to the tour bus after the show. Got the other band members' signatures and asked if they could give the pic to Tracii. The manager took me to the tour bus and Tracii was kind enough to sign the CD and put the picture on a wall of pics on the bus. Such nice guys.

I never knew this song was about Jayne Mansfield. Tracii Guns and Phil Lewis still bring it, now they are older, great chemistry. It is one of one of my neighbors' favorite songs. They love it when I turn up the volume on the weekend. The knocking on the wall matches the base drum. Semper Fi.

Her legacy lives on today, both in the success of her daughter Mariska Hargatay and the rear under ride guard mandated on every semitrailer on the road, commonly known as the "Mansfield bar", protecting others from the same fate she suffered.

2:11 The solo in this one is beautiful, in its simplicity and tone. Loved this band and this era... to my last breath. One of many bands that nailed the "seedy-strip" vibe perfectly. Always wondered what would've happened if I stayed in my hometown of Hollywood, CA instead of moving away at 12yrs old in '84. (sigh) onward music and memory.

I didn't grow up in California, but I hear what you're sayin'. I grew up and still live in Colorado, but I think back to the 80s when bands like Warrant, Poison, Motley Crue, Guns N Roses, Cinderella, and one of the best...LA Guns, ruled the Sunset Strip. The solos and riffs of these bands just seem to capture that California, Sunset Strip sound and vibe you mention. It takes me back, and though I didn't live in California, I have taken a couple trips there, and this song, and songs by the other bands I mentioned, are a soundtrack for me, and take me back to better days. Long live the 80s, and long live hair-metal!!!!

Johanson Fernandes Ya know, I read most all replies before I comment. If there are any truer words spoken about this or any other 80s rock ballad, I haven't seen or read em. Only one thing I'd add, and this is purely my opinion, the acoustical guitar stands alone in the better rock ballads!!!!! Maybe because I love to hear that sweet acoustical sound, but it really helps to set the music apart. Just one older guy's opinion.

This **IS** such an amazing ballad. TBH, every time I see an 18 wheeler and it's "Mansfield" bar, I think of this song. I so wish it got more respect because it deserved it, not just musically but the memory of the impact of the incident in 1967, and how it carries to this day 50 years later- and beyond. This song, about Jayne Mansfield and her death **literally** impacts all of us driving on the roads.
