this will be played heavily at my delusions of grandeur party, even though this album's grandeur is earned!

Dammit I do too. In late middle school, I worked for a landscaping company raking leaves in the huge rich-people yards in the neighborhood where the governor's mansion is located in Nashville. I'm pretty sure Hysteria was the only thing I ever listened to on my walkman while doing that... It used to take me an entire 6-8 hour day to rake one of those yards, and I'd listen on repeat/auto-reverse the whole time.
Simply the fact that the drummer had one arm and that he stayed the drummer. What utter dedication
Rick Allen also managed to get arrested for assaulting his wife with only one arm. I tell ya the guy just never gave up in the face of tragedy.

The decline and fall of Mutt Lange
including mention of British tv documentary about making the album, which I wouldn't mind seeing.
I like it, but Pyromania will always mean more to me, even as I recognize Hysteria is certainly the more strange record, a singular document. I just like the tunes better on the earlier record.

DUDD!!!!
Def Leppard officially stopped mattering after the last note strcuk on Pyromania. After said album, the boys ditched all their sonic ties to the NWOBHM that spawned them and basically attempted to become a vaguely metallic version of Wham! I, for one, have never forgiven them.

"Gods of War""Don't Shoot Shotgun""Run Riot""Excitable""Hysteria""Love and Affection"
Right. *checks CD* Hey, you might be right! I needed to switch "Hysteria" and "Excitable"

You and I together in our lives Sacred ties would never fray Then why can´t I let myself tell lies And watch you die every day
I think back to the times When dreams were what mattered Tough talking youth naivete
You said you never let me down But the horse stampedes and rages In the name of desperation
Is it all just wasted time Can you look at yourself When you think of what You left behind
Is it all just wasted time Can you live with yourself When you think of what You left behind
Paranoid delusions they haunt you Where´s my friend I used to know He´s all alone He´s buried deep within a carcass Searching for a soul
Can you feel me inside your heart As it´s bleeding Why can´t you belive you can´t be loved
I hear you scream in agony And the horse stampedes and rages In the name of desperation
The sun will rise again The earth will turn to sand Creation´s colors seem to fade to grey And you´ll see the sickly hands of time Will write your final rhyme And end a memory
I never thought you´d let it get this far, boy....
great now I'm crying

Sucks ass, and always has. (Hair metal band chickens out and tries to get "heavy," what dipshits.) Their first LP was the only listenable one. But had *Adrenalize been released a year or two earlier, it still would have been overshadowed by plenty of great Warrant, Faster Pussycat, and Cinderella albums (among other things) regardless.
