Not bad. Definitely has a modern-day Leppard sound to it. Lyrics are pretty cringeworthy though. And why is he playing bass? Just for the video, or does he do that regularly now?

Sounds exactly like a 2025 Def Leppard song….and that’s not good.
It’s not awful, but it’s nothing I ever need to hear again.

It was co-written with Mutt Lange and sounds like it. He hasn't changed his sound in 40 years and apparently has no desire to.

The guitar riff sounds like a slower version of One Night Love Affair.

The song is pretty bland and it delivered with as much excitement as the first single from a new Bon Jovi album.

He is worth seeing live, though. His voice is still great and the set is filled with many of the classics.

I lost interest after Room Service. That was a cool record. After that, maybe one song here and there. He was never a deep lyricist but he had more depth than this.

Agreed he is still great live. Saw him at the Garden. It was just hit after hit. A great night.

DId you catch the Garden show recently? I last saw him in 2023, here in Canada. You're right -- I think every recent release has had a couple good songs. I just miss his newest songs having that sense of "urgency" we hear in songs like Run To You, Lonely Nights, There Will Never Be Another Tonight, and others.

He's toured as a trio in the past, him playing bass and with guitarist and drummer.

It's the typical Bryan Adams formula: 90% bullshit cliche lyrics over a decent-to-pretty-good (yet rote) guitar riff.
Any semblance of original thought hasn't entered Adams' head since at least the mid 90s.

The Springfield track blows most Adams' songs out of the water.
