Love Classic/Love Hard:Skid Row-I Remember You

Skid Row aveau toate datele necesare pentru a devenii urmatoare trupa de senzatie de la sfarsitul anilor ’80;un solist care a urcat repede in preferintele fanelor(unde mai pui ca are si acum o voce foarte buna),abilitatea de a aborda diferite melodii,un contract mare cu o casa de discuri si un album de debut care a fost certififcat de 5 ori cu platina.Succesul nu a tinut foarte mult insa,chiar daca albumul de debut a fost un real succes,cele ce au urmat nu s-au ridicat la nivelul asteptarilor,Slave to the grind fiind totusi bine cotat,ce a urmat dupa Subhuman Race,ultimul album lansat de casa de discuri Altantic Records e doar istorie...sau pacatul anilor 2000.

Skid Row,lansat in ’89 e cu siguranta o capodopera a vremurilor,alaturi de nume la Appetite for Destruction a facut din Skid Row o trupa care a simtit succesul inca de la albumul de debut,in cazul celor de la Guns N’Roses,succesul a continuat inca 4 albume dupa,insa.Sunt multe single’uri care fac parte de pe acest album si sunt considerate de fani “cele mai bune” lansate vreodata de trupa,printre titluri ca “18 and life” sau “Youth gone wild” intalnim si “I remember you”,o balada putin spus superba,cea mai cuoscuta din repertoriul trupei si una dintre cele mai bune lansate in ’89,un an plin de cantece de dragoste daca stam sa ne gandim  mai bine.Cantecul a fost scris de Bolan si Sabo,a fost pe locul 6 in Billboard Hot 100 si pe locul 23 in Mainstream Rock Charts la inceputul anilor ’90.Bach spunea intr-un interviu din 2007: “'I Remember You' was the #1 prom song in the United States of America in the year 1990...You talk about making memories! Literally the whole country of America did their prom dance to 'I Remember You' one year, and that's a real heavy memory to beat.”

Versuri:

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
The wind would whisper and I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried, that called my name
And when you needed me I came through

I paint a picture of the days gone by
When love went blind and you would make me see
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew you were there for me
Time after time you were there for me

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say, I remember you

We spend the summer with the top rolled down
Wished ever after would be like this
You said I love you babe, without a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile and die for your kiss

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say, I remember you

We've had our share of hard times
But that's the price we paid
And through it all we kept the promise that we made
I swear you'll never be lonely

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true
Oh my darling, I love you

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say, I remember you

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say, I remember you
