Cutting Crew - "I've Been In Love Before" (Extended Single)

To me, Cutting Crew is more than "I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight". "I've Been in Love Before" is my favorite song of theirs - the infectious bassline set to a slow-paced tempo makes the perfect backdrop for this gloomy ballad. This is the extended single version to this song. NOTE - I DO NOT CLAIM OWNERSHIP TO THIS SONG. Song Info: I've Been in Love Before (extended single) 1987 UK Siren 12 Inch - 3 Track Extended Version B/W 7" Version & Life in a Dangerous Time

FM - "Someday" (cd stereo quality)

One of the biggest debates in AOR music is which version of "Someday" is better - FM's or Mark Free's. Both versions are brilliant, however I prefer the overall musical arrangement of FM's and the vocals in Mark's. Which version do you prefer?

"Unbreakable" - FM

Per request, this song is taken from FM's album "Metropolis" (2010 album of the year). Please support the group by purchasing tracks/album from amazon or itunes.
Hey Romeo - Kee Marcello

Solo project by the best guitarist that Europe ever had (imho). And is it just me or does he have a "Don Henley/ New York Minute" thing kinda going in his voice/ the verses?

"No More Lonely Nights" - Glasgow

My fav track off this great album. Very underrated song - aor masterpiece! I hope everyone can one day relate to this song at one point in their lives. I know for sure i'll be ready for that day whenever it may come....the day when i will have "no more lonely nights", as beautifully stated in the song.

Boney M - "Painter Man" (remix)

These cats put the word "cool" in the dictionary. This is my favorite Boney M track - the solo @1:55 is just as sweet as Bobby's dance moves.

Pretty Boy Floyd - "Restless" (demo)

This demo is SUPERIOR to the other version of the song...much much better. The other version is tuned down, sorta slowed down & choopy, sorta lost at times, doesn't know what it wants to do. This version one is completely rock n roll, from start to finish. They hash this song it out with the greatest of easy and real damn good, which is what this group is....damn good.

Alone - Allister

I use to like this kind of music back in the day. This is my favorite track of their last album. It happens to be the last track on their very last album, before they broke up. The singer happens to be a nice guy too. I met him backstage at one of their concerts...he gave me props and shook my hand - cool dude. NOTE - I DO NOT CLAIM OWNERSHIP OF THIS SONG.

Top 10 Poison Songs of All Time

Poison is one of the most underrated groups of all time in my opinion. Had the critics gotten passed their glam look and actually listened to their music, then maybe they would have realized the sheer brillance behind the band. Here is my top 10 songs of their in my opinion. Do you agree/disagree with choices? Is there a track that you would've made sure you put on your list? What song do you think is their best one? *****GOOD TO SEE YOU ROCKIN' BACK ON YOUR FEET BRET*****

Home - Ice Cold July

Everyone I talk to who has heard or knows about this group all say the same thing...these guys should have been big. "Home" is my favorite track of their brilliant (and unfortunately only) album "There Will Come a Day".

Danger Danger - "I Still Think About You (live)"

Sure I would've prefered Poley-Timmons, but Laine-Marcello will have to do for now (not to take anything away from Laine-Marcello, but for me Danger Danger has Poley-Timmons). This track is the live version of "I Still Think about you" with Paul Laine on vocals. I don't know of any other live recording of this song available to public, aside from this track.

Kristi Krash Majors wanted to be the first person in the history of mankind to commit suicide with only a pointed human finger under his chin. Fortunately, he failed in his attempt.

Noiseworks - "Take Me Back"

I love Australian rock, and this is probably one of the best Australian rock songs ever written. Lyrics: You never expect it to be in your wildest dreams So take a step backwards for a little while You'll find it there It's something that I can't explain So I remain trapped inside Still holding strong Still holding on to you, to you Take me back to you, it's been a long time Although woh every night I think of you It's such a lonely life I watched you wave goodbye as you drove away I didn't know that it would be your last time with me You said - life ain't worth living if nobody cared You said that all the time, oh I take a step back and see your staring eyes I see you on the day you died Take me back to you, it's been a long time Although woh every night I think of you It's such a lonely life Take me back to you, take me back to you Take me back to you, it's been a long time Although woh every night I think of you It's such a lonely life, oh oh Take me back to you, take me back to you

Motor Ace - "Pieces"

Everyone has one, maybe a couple of bands on their "Man....i wish they would have lasted longer" list. For me, Motor Ace is definately on my list. They were only together a little more than 5 years, and all 3 albums that they released were good. I would have loved to have seen them release more albums, however due to the hectic tour and work schedule, it took a toll on lead singer Patrick and his health (Chron's disease). Btw, if anyone has the actual video to this song, please please PLEASE upload it for the rest of the world to see. (It's a cool vid - the band is playing in a room and thousands of 'pieces' of confetti blow all around during different parts of the song, as if they were in a ticker tape parade!)

The Ultimate Top 10 Most Underrated Rock Guitarists List

The following video is what rock guitarists I feel are/were the most underrated, under-appreciated in the modern era. More specifically, these folks does not/did not get enough exposure for their guitar virtuoso skills for some reason or another. An perfect example of this is Reb Beach. His skills are often overlooked b/c he was in a "girly" band. Another example is Zakk Wylde. By following a rock God legend such as Randy Rhodes, it is hard to get any credit at all. Again this list only includes who i think are ten of the most underrated/ underexposed rock guitarists. Please no "what about Jimi Hendrix", "Huh?!? No SRV?", "where is Clapton", "Yngwie should be on your list you dolt", "you're missing Eddie Van Halen", etc...type comments. I get that they are all great guitarists, but this list is again focusing on the more unsung guitarists. Do you agree with this list? Are there some guitarists you would have included or taken out of this list? More importantly, who would be in your top 3, top 5, top 10, or top whatever list of underrated axmen?

Top 10 AOR/ Melodic Rock Singers of All Time

It was an honor to come up with a top ten list of who I think is the greatest AOR/Melodic Rock singers of all time. AOR music is the best form of music in terms of getting the purest and most brilliant musicians in each respective instrument, and each of these vocalists on this list are in a class alone. There is no comparing these vocalists to the singers you here on the radio today. In fact, most singers today even with the help of autotune/computer help still can't get better vocals than any of these singers on my list (and don't get me started on American Idol.......) To AOR/ Melodic rock fans - What do you think of this list? Do you agree/disagree with this list? Who would you have taken out or placed instead? What is your top three, five, ten, or whatever list if you were to make one? Who do you think should be on top? NOTE - DAVID COVERDALE IS NOT ON THIS LIST FOR A REASON. I CONSIDER HIM TO BE MORE BLUESY ROCK AND NOT IN THE AOR CATEGORY, HENCE HE WAS NOT ON MY LIST. BUT HAD I PUT HIM ON THE LIST, I WOULD'VE DEFINATELY PUT HIM IN THE TOP 5.

June and the Ocean - Junction 18

Awesome song from an awesome album. Lyrics are highly romantic. Spit a few of these lines to a hottie and uve got ur Friday night. Lyrics: Sattelite night is how it all starts Over horizon dreams And then you appeared dressed in black You drew the fear out of me As we looked out to the sea Freezing in waters so blue 3AM seems just fine The nightcrawlers have left the bay Could I have so much more to say to you? Did you notice? Fate seemed shy an hour ago Look where that hour got us now Slowly..I'll wait for you holding all honesty As I watch the sea When you leave here Take in all the sounds of ocean waves just glistening We could just run away We were made for this anyway An IFO could steal us now We'd leave the beach to soar against the night sky Over the high tides Could these hours add on to our life stories? Now it's just another day without the sand beneath our feet I'll never let it go I'll keep repeating it all over and over and over Heaven's skies in your eyes You know they fit just fine I heard that song today it just bled of goodbye That summer's gone But the late night hours will still be worn And on the weekends out with your friends Will you remember that mindnight wind aching? Or the suprise before the sunrise It's just every night I miss you so well...
Top 10 Blue Tears songs

Michael Jackson was not the only talented musician that we had to say goodbye in 2009. We can only speculate how the rock industry would've been impacted had the critics given Gregg Fulkerson's band Blue Tears a chance. It amazes me to this day how critics can jump on the whole grunge bandwagon (cookie cutter power chords and simple teenage angst lyrics) and throw more talented bands such as Blue Tears under the bus. Calling them a "glam" metal act...there was nothing glam about Blue Tears....who are these critics?!?!? Overnight fly by night shady contractors that they hire from the local Piggly Wiggly?!? (no offense to Piggly Wiggly) For those of you who aren't familiar with the band, the best way to describe Blue Tears is that it is a cross between Bon Jovi and Def Leppard, but yet has a style of its own. Too bad radio missed out on this band. Here is what I think are the top 10 Blue Tears song in my humble opinion. Do you agree? Share your thoughts. What is ur favorite Blue Tears song, or better yet how would ur list look like?

"Slowly Slipping Away (live)" - Harem Scarem

Apparently, they feel it in the morning....AND sadly through the day also! Can these guys get a break??? Lyrics: There's a burning question in my heart But I see the answer in your eyes An uneasy feeling without you There's only peace by your side Our hearts survived the cold world outside Somehow this love keeps us alive I feel it in the morning I feel it all through the day I feel the heartache, slowly slipping away, slowly slipping away We've had our share of confusion We've been let down so many times before But what I've found is a real love No need to search anymore, no Somehow we've weathered the storms in our lives This love has never been a lie We will survive the cold world outside Somehow this love keeps us alive
