  This beautiful power ballad brings a tear to my eye every time. It has everything an 80s hair metal band would have and more. Definitely one of the band’s stronger songs. When to Listen: Eh… I mean there are two places I suppose you could. One could make the argument that this could be a […]

Today’s submission: Oh yeah, the God himself… the man who corrupted a whole generation and continues to make waves today. Alice Cooper himself. When to listen to this one: Villain creation. Not kidding, I’ve build many a bad guy while listening to this song. Highly recommend it. Also, who here … Read More My Writing Playlist
