Never disappoints, one of the all time great tracks and so nearly didn't make it on to the album.

I can't believe they'd ever overlook this track now. It's so huge, the idea it almost didn't make it to the album is crazy 🤯🤯
reply
Yes, it's hard to believe now that they considered putting it on the next album, Us 6 years later. This song was such a massive success and the video as well, would it have done as well 6 years later 🤷♂️.
Similar story with Def Leps, Pour Some Sugar On Me. It too was a very late inclusion on the Hysteria album and almost didn't make it and is the song that basically made them in to the mega band that they would become.

i couldn't imagine hysteria without pour some sugar. although its not the title track, it's probably the best known track from that album, maybe even the most known Def Leppard track.

I love this song!!
Check out this version of it by Northern Kings.

Yeah the keys are really different to the pan pipe intro Gabriel used.
With the conversion to symphonic metal, adding the strings and orchestral sounds makes it somehow sound much grander. Tony Kakko is the main vocalist for this version. Northern Kings did a whole tribute covers album of 80s classics. Each member is a great vocalist in their own rights and although Kakko is the front focus in this track you can hear Marko and the others backing him up. They all have a song where they feature more than the others.
