In the day I stumbled upon them (I think Columbia House) I was all over this shit. I always look for the underdogs. They put the most effort into their craft. (just like sports, I would rather watch AAA than professional. There is heart put into the craft.) They always disappear to my despair and if not, when they become popular I quit listening. This band was in my regular rotation on cassette along with Poison, Motley Crue, ACDC, Bruce Dickenson and the such. (those are classics [with professional producers] so will always be remembered) I just hope D.A.D is still getting revenue from this and not Warner fucking them over... other wise Jihad! I am getting mad! I would classify that as obscure or underrated. On a side note, around the same time was a band called Tuff-N-Nuff. I can not find any record for the life of me. If anyone can help I would appreciate it. Also, a Japanese metal band with "X" in the title, but it is not the one you find on Google. I listened to it in the 89-91 range. All help would be thankful.
In 1993 I was working for the UN protection forces in Balkans, we lived high up in a camp in the mountains between Macedonia and Serbia... No Fuel Left For The Pilgrims was one of the albums that was played over and over and over again. I still love D-A-D and their music always brings back good memories.
Listening from a small town in Coimbra 🇵🇹.. This song is amazing, like Texas and USA 🇺🇸... I never met US, but since the 90's, because the Movies, and other things, I always dream to live and work in this great country... The hope never die🙏 🇺🇸❤️🇵🇹.. Sorry my bad english...

Just a perfectly crafted tune. Great hook, great bridge, great solo. Nothing not to like. Very underrated and undiscovered song. They should have been huge.
I was 18 in 89 and saw the cassette tape in the music store. I bought it because I loved the cover, went home not knowing what to expect and, boom!, I was hooked forever! D-A-D became one of my favourite bands instantly, and Sleeping my day away is one of my five fave songs from anyone, anytime. Here in Argentine they are all but unknown, but I keep spreading the word!
I did the same with an album from Montrose, had a shark fin moving in a yard with grass. I never played the album for years, and when I did put it on a turntable, it blew me away. Montrose 2 I think the album was called. I liked the art so well, I never thought about playing the album. I collected a lot of albums, but had none from D-A-D. I liked the song when I heard it, but I never bought an album that only had one good song. I will now listen to the full album if RUclips has it. I always thought the title of this song was Sleeping My Head Away, but now understand it was my day.
I miss the musical discovery I had at 18 (1985). Still have many I 'found' like that too. Now get it on YT mainly---just like this one---or the used CD/LP store. What Argentine rock/metal bands should we (USA) know about??? The only one I know is Attaque 77.

I've heard this song 100's of times on the radio but never knew the name of the band. I've been going crazy trying to find this song. Found it today, finally!
I was rocking this CD in '89 while stationed in southern Italy. Purchased it at the NATO base in Naples on a trip up there. I can still sing along to it after all these years. Great songs stick with you and never get old!!!
I agree with you 100%, this song is still a song that people can sing along to. The band METALLICA had chosen THIS SONG to have Kirk Hammet and Rob TRoujjio play and sing along to when the band had been in Denmark, and since the band "D. A. D." is DANISH, it had been a sign of RESPECT I THINK.
I can't understand how I could not listen this song till now... incredible!! I love 80' and I love this song. Let's rock for many more years to come!❤️
Just saw them last night (22/11/22) in Perth, Western Australia for the first time ever. They were super tight and Jesper's vocals were on point. 👌 It has been over 20 years since they played in Perth! 😳 Great band, really entertaining and I would love to see them again.

I'm not the only one who noticed that bass then. Looks like a Frankenstein job...a left-handed Fender Jaguar body (or similar) with a super-skinny neck. Kinda like Eddie Van Halen's Frankenstrat, but a bass.
ICONIC song! I'm Judas Priest fаn, but these guys touched my metal heart. There is so much melody in the song. I have got this single as plastic bonus in Metal Hammer magazine long time ago and since then .... I love them
xactly where i heared it 1st..awesome...not sure tho if it was pre- europe ´s final countdown or slightly later.. same year i discovered JP with Turbolover
I am in US and been listening to them since the early 90's. Thank my grandmother, bedste from Danmark for sending me the album when I was a young teenager. Wish they had more to listen to..
Back in the day, first heard this on WSOU, a little rock radio station outta NJ. 1989, visiting Denmark from NYC, 17 year old me, thrilled to hear this blasting at Tivoli Gardens whilst flying through the air on one of the rides there.
I love D-A-D! One of my top three favorite bands of all time! I've been listening to them since the late 80s. I wish they would tour here in the states. 🇺🇸🇩🇰
I was a stage hand back in the 1980's. Our crew did more than 100 Disneyland After Dark jobs, and we LOVED IT!! Not once did they do a mediocre show. They are kinda the Danish AC/DC, but with the Cow-Punk twist..
@@raksh9 They played everything from indoor sports-arenas to Roskilde Festivals Orange Scene. Yes, the crowds where LOUD and sang along, they still do btw.
@@hansemannluchter643 Thank you for the reply! This song made the charts in Australia, with the local music programs and TV shows playing it all the time. I think D A D even came to Australia once, but I'm not sure. It was a great time to be alive, with hard rock and metal like Crue, Poison, Whitesnake, White Lion and Europe getting a lot of mainstream airplay. Life was so much more simple back then! It's awesome to know that D A D are still together, it would be wonderful to see them live.
35years hard to believe getting old really suxs yikes omg scary gosh it's happening to us even the song but me it's the pinnacle i carry with me forever.Likes of Krokus,Accept,Britny Fox,Dokken many more so much competition and stacked all over Our World
This is the very song that encouraged me to start sleeping during the day and stay up all night. From the moment I heard it, early 90s...I've been nocturnal ever since. Loved the change and still do to this day...sleeping my day away.
So many memories, I was a rebellious teenager when this album came out, I was into punk/hardcore but for reasons I don't even want to begin to understand, I really liked D-A-D, and the time it wasn't at all easy to listen to the music you liked, you'd either owned the album, or you had to wait for the radio or MTV to pass it, and you always had either had a blank tape on, or a blank VHS tape on to record the songs you liked and listen to them at your liking, instead of waiting for God's time of choice! 😅 Kids these days don't know the struggle! 😂
Seriously underrated band. I listened to a bootleg copy of this in 1989 because we couldn't get the album in the States where I lived for almost a year. I finally got the album when I ordered it from the store in the mall.
@Werewolf486 I am agreed with you but, think that in that period, there were yet some bands like Cinderella, Motley Crew, Def Leppard, Gun's Roses, LA Guns, Skid Row, so on...it is difficult for DAD, i suppose, also because, maybe, they were not english or americans. And their textes are different from the hairy bands of that period, with more humour. It is a my opinion.
+Slackerphilosopher It was during the time with a lot of those bands. The biggest one was probably Guns N Roses? The market was pretty damn saturated in those years. Also, they're from Denmark. Before the internet it was extremely hard for bands from small countries to go worldwide.
Well, they did in their early years. They were the headliner for Roskilde Festival several times. I happen to know the guitarist, and he still lives completely of making music. They still tour every year :)
carbrett2007 Im 16, my dad showed this music to me and im in love with it. He always tells me that music back then was way better than what it is now, and im forced to agree. Anyone who was a teen back in the ‘80s was a lucky man.
Insanely good song, production, composition, backing track, music video. Everything is amazing about this song. Sometimes I lose my faith when I think how underrated it is. While it should have been a billion views by this time, only few million of good old rock fans appreciate it. I know many people that never heard of this song in US and they think they are glamheads. Very sad...
30 years later finally saw these guys on the MORC X cruise, didn't disappoint, got a pick and they closed their set both times with this one, my favorite song!
Superb band never made it big like deserved. no airplay here in the uk, loved them ever since isn't that wild, no fuel one of the all time great albums, should be megastars!!!!
If you have a Rock and Roll heart and soul.......This song never gets old .......Best song I ever seen played on a 2 string Bass...... Badass Forever !!!!!!!!
Remember a live private concert in Odense Airport - that's true, right on the tarmac - when DAD exploded with this song. It must have been ten years ago but still remember it like yesterday. Fantastic experience, thanks DAD!
we were sitting at a friend's today and just listening to music..... then it popped up. DAD after 30 years, it just pops up in a playlist from our buddy. I'm still excited. I've been looking for this for 30 years. I'm young again 😆
I miss these fuckin bands man... loved D.A.D... So many great bands out of denmark at the time but Hollywood wouldn't pay any attention to anyone but these guys...
I love Sleeping My Days Away facing uphill battles of everyday life as it gets harder quicker but shorter at the same time.Glam Fix Addiction lately love the Guitar Steel these guys have.Hair and Metal the glamorous and glorious gears genre it delivered with so many Wonderful Gifted Artists in their Videos Stage presence mean Guitar riffs solos,drums and vocals to perfection to be blessed and part of the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s atmosphere could harp on and explain vibes and feelings like no other time or place in history
@@brockautry8680 great Danish band and music is epic and timeless have a great day my friend keep enjoying until you tube pulls pin and it's not seen for god knows how longj 😀
Hey, what can i say? Love this band! Cool! Love jaspers voice... Like Sebastian bach but i love it 😁!!!! Great song and band! 😀 Im from sweden but Goooo Danmark!!! 😀 Love copenhagen! 😀
Just saw them in Perth, Western Australia this week. I'm 54 and seen 1000s of gigs but they were amazing one of the best I've ever seen - absolutely electric.

[Verse 1]
Mumbling good morning and raising my head
A bad-breath kiss to my pillow pet
Takes a look at the day and turns and stay in bed
Open my eyes when the day have died
I turned the world and I slept all right
Now my daymare is over, I zip my jeans tight
Oh, Lord, won't you bless this night?
[Chorus]
From the pale lips of a youth who lay
I'm sleeping my day away
And when the night comes to the city, I say:
I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah, with my pale lips in the pillow, I say:
I'm sleeping my day away
After dark is the game I play
I'm sleeping my day, I'm sleeping my day away
[Verse 2]
When my dreams begin, I'll be proud to be letting you in
With a smile on my face, I guide our dreamboat in
So if you wanna travel along with me
You better sleep tight the rest of the day
You see, I could be a sleeper, it's not rest I lack
'Cause I hit the sack when the sun's coming back
[Chorus]
From the pale lips of a youth who lay
I'm sleeping my day away
When the night comes to the city, I say:
I'm sleeping my day away

I'm sleeping my day away

Still love this album, every song...salutes from Greece
I got hooked on them back in '89 after watching this video on Headbangers Ball on MTV....man I would love to be 15 again
Yes yes exactly like me to the first, hell no to the last!!! 😅
It's funny that you're name is Carbrett2007 (ups hahahha) 🤣
carbrett2007 Im 16, my dad showed this music to me and im in love with it. He always tells me that music back then was way better than what it is now, and im forced to agree. Anyone who was a teen back in the ‘80s was a lucky man.
@@frosty4059 we didn't know .. But we had it made ..

I was 16 when this album came out. We were spoiled with music in those days.
Haunting guitar. Infectious chorus. In my head a lot! Play it loud
Insanely good song, production, composition, backing track, music video. Everything is amazing about this song. Sometimes I lose my faith when I think how underrated it is. While it should have been a billion views by this time, only few million of good old rock fans appreciate it. I know many people that never heard of this song in US and they think they are glamheads. Very sad...
30 years later finally saw these guys on the MORC X cruise, didn't disappoint, got a pick and they closed their set both times with this one, my favorite song!
No never in our country and radio sets I have ever listened to this song or band!
Just listen to it, it's a great song and probably a good band
Superb band never made it big like deserved. no airplay here in the uk, loved them ever since isn't that wild, no fuel one of the all time great albums, should be megastars!!!!
É pena não passar mais vezes nas rádios portuguesas 😢. São top
Saw them live in Sweden back in 2010. Such insane stage presence and power. Amazing live band. Those crazy Danes ;) Xoxox
Estelle Moughton yeah. I remember also when Sweden wasn't a muslin country. Giod old days...
'HaHAHA
That is so fucking right
You were probably drunk just like them
great band right..they visited our small town in the late eighties..good times great show!
One of their best from the 80's , have to listen to it cranked loud and its better everytime
If you have a Rock and Roll heart and soul.......This song never gets old .......Best song I ever seen played on a 2 string Bass...... Badass Forever !!!!!!!!
Best danish band ever! Greetings from Sao Paulo - Brazil
Remember a live private concert in Odense Airport - that's true, right on the tarmac - when DAD exploded with this song. It must have been ten years ago but still remember it like yesterday. Fantastic experience, thanks DAD!
TheA15995 var det med TDC
Great song , heard it on radio for first time in ages today this morning.... now played it a dozen times on here !
This song never gets old. I'm dead serious. Love from Estonia!

The bass player with his 2 string bass and medic helmet that shoots sparks 😆😆😆 this is great stuff
Your signature Guitar Sound and i love this since 1989
my best moments of living in Denmark for 17yrs.. the birth of my Daughter and getting to see these guys live,
Teenage memories, coming back. Still a great song !
I wish music today would be like this ..... Good old times!
Still a brilliant song in 2021! D.A.D is one of the best bands.
Totally agree!
One of the best rock song in history.
Awesome band. Cheers from Argentina 2023
It feels like the guitar is fluid and pounding in my veins, as soon as I listened a few times to this song I had to sing along!
Det ultimativt bedste Danske rocknummer ever .!!!!
hearing this song live has been one of my life's best moments
we were sitting at a friend's today and just listening to music..... then it popped up.
DAD after 30 years, it just pops up in a playlist from our buddy. I'm still excited. I've been looking for this for 30 years. I'm young again 😆

Jep det har du helt ret i :-)

I miss these fuckin bands man... loved D.A.D... So many great bands out of denmark at the time but Hollywood wouldn't pay any attention to anyone but these guys...
I love Sleeping My Days Away facing uphill battles of everyday life as it gets harder quicker but shorter at the same time.Glam Fix Addiction lately love the Guitar Steel these guys have.Hair and Metal the glamorous and glorious gears genre it delivered with so many Wonderful Gifted Artists in their Videos Stage presence mean Guitar riffs solos,drums and vocals to perfection to be blessed and part of the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s atmosphere could harp on and explain vibes and feelings like no other time or place in history
Awesome memories, loved D.A.D back in the day.
I'd forgotten all about this band brings back good memories 😆
Saw these guys In Finland back when they were still called Disneyland After Dark... Loved them!!!
Koska?
@@bruhjale 80-luvun lopussa tai 90-luvun alussa... En muista enää, mutta Nummirockissa se oli.
@@etunimisukunimi3101 Nummirock 1990. olin paikalla. Ja myyty. paras Bändi Tanskasta ikuna!
Wow! They have it all. I am happy to have the opportunity to listen to their music. Good video too.

met a little old danish lady today in my local,and she has heard of DAD,so cute she is 78,im 46 ,been a fan for 32yrs omg
Most underrated song ever. I am 24 but still remember hearing this in my childhood,
The bass player has some insane basses. I never knew that it was him from this band.
My childhood playing this on cassette player & riding the skateboard half pipe I built in dad's back yard !👍😊
Hey, what can i say? Love this band! Cool! Love jaspers voice... Like Sebastian bach but i love it 😁!!!! Great song and band! 😀 Im from sweden but Goooo Danmark!!! 😀 Love copenhagen! 😀
Just saw them in Perth, Western Australia this week. I'm 54 and seen 1000s of gigs but they were amazing one of the best I've ever seen - absolutely electric.
Saw them last week on a Motorcycle show....Gois/Portugal. They put up a great performance!!! Thumbs up!!!
What a top tune, stands the test of time, great band. Jesper is a top vocalists.
It's nice finding a new-old band!
I remember when this came out I was a teenager and the song still holds up today 30yrs later
the best Danish group ever!
Thanks for sharing. I haven't seen this since the end of 1989.
The best kept Scandinavian secret...... Im watching this in 2017 and grinning about the stunning musicianship
Fun fact: They once played a hockey game for charity against Leningrad Cowboys :)
Don’t forget Gasolin’ the first and biggest danish rock band.
You can keep the secret 🤣😂🤣
