"The Real Me"
Another by W.A.S.P
This is the video for The Real Me by W.A.S.P. who are a seriously underrated shock rock/metal act in general of the 80's. Its a cover of THE WHO classic like no other.

Crazy, Crazy Nights
Promo Video by Kiss
Taken off the 'Crazy Nights' album; deemed as too commercial by some. Unlike other 'typical' Kiss albums which is why I especially like the album. Not a huge Kiss fan ... the occasional track has been enjoyed over the years .. this track is one of them.
