    Lyrics:
    Mercy don't think she's pretty no more,
    Starin' at the stars through her back screen door,
    She tries and tries to make it all work out,
    No matter what she does,
    She's left standin' in the middle of doubt,
    In a lonely night,
    And in the pourin' rain,
    You can count on me,
    Sometimes she cries,
    When she's alone at night,
    Sometimes she weeps,
    When she's feelin' cold and weak,
    Sometimes the pain,
    It just tears her up inside,
    Sometimes she cries,
    Ooh, I wonder why,
    Mercy don't have a lover no more,
    She plays with her pillow,
    Stares at the bedroom floor,
    Used to have a million,
    They've come and gone,
    No matter what she does,
    She can't figure out what she's doin' wrong,
    In a lonely night,
    And in the pourin' rain,
    You can count on me,

    There will NEVER be any better music than the music of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Music today sucks compared to that music. I'm 61 years old and I'll never listen to anything but rock, metal, and hair bands! Long live rock and roll! 🤟🤟🤟

      I was born in 77 and was 12 when this was released. Back then i couldn't wait to "grow up" and my mom would tell me, "itll happen before you know it, but you might not like it and she was absolutely right. Everything was simpler and easier when we were kids. But greed and social media has utterly destroyed and rotted society.

      Kinda ironic since that's what a lot people said about music in the 80's, especially with the abundance of progressive electronics that saturated the recordings. And as far as recording went, analog was still used but digital was starting to take over.

    Jani Lane was a phenomenal singer and songwriter. The same can be said for Tom Keifer of Cinderella. The Hair Metal Bands got a bad reputation. In the Grunge Era. That was not fair. They were awesome musicians. Looking back 30 plus years on. It's no question who survived. Hair Metal Bands inspired The New Wave Of Classic Rock Bands today.

      @BlackSeranna 2 роки тому +1

      You know what's crazy, is that when bands like this were headlining, there were people our age wishing they could go back to the 1970's, because they thought the new hair bands were terrible! I didn't feel that way, obviously. I do think there are some bands that really shined in each decade. For the 1980's into the very early years of the 1990's, Warrant shined bright. They played often on MTV, I had their tape, also my mixtapes that my boyfriend made for me (we are talking 1989). I came here today because I found an old mixtape, and I'm making a Kickass mix on my youtube channel with all the songs from this mixtape, and a few extra like this one. I'm sure the list will get pretty long the more tapes I find.

      If you can't find music today that excites you, that's your problem. You just aren't listening hard enough. There is more variety than ever before. Turn off the radio and do a little research for yourself. This bullshit confirmation bias of "back in the day!" is so immature and idiotic. You are the problem, not the music.

I read an article about Jani getting assaulted at a party and he never got over it. It affected him really hard . I can totally understand, I have dealt with Anxiety, Depression, Severe Mood Swings as a result of childhood trauma, abuse at the hands of older supposedly responsible adults. I have never sought treatment. I partied like a 🎸 ⭐ for a long time. Thankfully I'm lucky, 🙏 to live with my Mom, and Dad.
