Sounds like Def Leppard.
I've heard a lot worse out of the "old rockers singing about rocking" genre. Pretty good, Richie.

Wow, terrible. Big surprise.
He should just do a Bon Jovi cover album with him singing.

There’s a good song in there but this isn’t it.

Is this one of the songs he's had in the can for years that a label didn't wanna mess with?

Shouldn't record a song called "Born to Rock" if it doesn't rock.
Re: Richie Sambora Drops Clip of New “Born to Rock” Solo Single
He should go back in the studio write different lyrics change the guitars change the drums and then he might have a good song

Agreed!
I had higher hopes for him as a solo artist. His last record was so/so at best and the new singles are not great either.
However, they are more promising than the last two Bon Jovi albums!
Especially with Jon’s vocal problems, a Richie theater tour would probably do well.

Yeah, it does sound very Def Leppard, but I like it better than when Tesla went that route with Shock.FreddyFender wrote: ↑Thu Jul 17, 2025 10:37 am Sounds like Def Leppard.

Certainly more interesting than anything Bon Jovi has released since he left the band.

What an utterly dumb fucking song title. How can anyone think that's remotely cool, clever, fun or interesting?

It is released! It was co-written by Bob Rock.

How far do I need to fast forward to hear him rock? I’m at a minute and a half in and evidently haven’t got there yet.

Bob Rock doesn’t rock any more either.
He’s just taking Richie’s money for YEARS and producing crap.
Omg that background noise hurts my ears, it’d be ok without the noise and the do do do … interesting solo tone and the beginning of a good solo at the end that never materialized,

Not even AI could write something so uninspired. Let the pills do the talking. Richie must have bought the $2500 production pack from Bob rock. Because that’s all this is. It’s so dated And flat out lame. Did Richie pay someone to push this out there?
