  • Nice little pop song from Chesney Hawkes which was written by Nik Kershaw. Nothing much to say really, it's your typical pop rock of the time and has a pretty cool solo.
    'Leppardized' is my way of adding interesting guitar parts to a song that has little to no guitar in it, in an attempt to make it more like the Hysteria era of Def Leppard. Although really it is just an excuse for me to play over pop. :)

    I use a Charvel DK24 into a Boss Me50 into a Palmer Pdi-09 into a Scarlet interface into Logic Pro X.
    I have a Patreon where I upload my notation notes for all my new covers and I am going through my old ones too. But I also provide custom notation and video lessons content there or at my bwmguitarlessons@gmail.com address. Please get in touch if you want help playing the music you love. / bwm5150

    I've seen alot of covers of this song over the years and it's been covered beyond the ridiculous and then I sat and listened this.... By far the best guitar cover I've heard, thats the comment. Amazing work mate, You've just earnt yourself a subscriber :).

    All due respect to Nik Kershaw,
    he's an underrated solo guitarist,
    but this is the 2.0 update.

    The part from the solo to the end, I could listen to it all day. Solo is killer and the part after that just a kind of soothing. Crazy as it may sound. Thanks for this amazing piece.

    i remember when this song came out in the charts in 1990
    i was 12 years old and in 1st year high school.
    There are not many other people on RUclips that have covered this song.
