    This song made me cry as a little boy in 1990, and it still does today.
    Thank you to all our Vietnam veterans. And if nobody ever told you this back then, I'll tell it to you now... WELCOME HOME.

      I will pray that you take solace and comfort in knowing that she is now in her rightful place in God’s Kingdom smiling down upon you.
      I also pray for you and your family that you continue to remember those wonderful moments with your daughter. 🙏

      I second that. I met a gentleman at my job that told me he fought in Vietnam. I thanked him for his Service but he refused to accept it. He told me his job was to go in and eliminate all the women and children. That broke my heart you could clearly tell that haunted him clean up to his dying day. I almost started crying in front of him because I knew that's not what he wanted to do but that's what he was told to do. RIP Barry and thank you for your service

      Mine was similar. He was a navy frog man ; before the seal program. He was heavily involved in the cold war, believe me ,those guys saw plenty of action. And, sometimes had to do the unthinkable; he paid his dues and then some. He led a very productive life after that , but had night terrors the rest of his life. He said he never had dreams anymore, he just didn't remember. It may be a terrible thing to say; but I am glad he doesn't have to see what he fought against so hard; communism on American soil.

    This was my favorite song at 15 years old. I had suffered a traumatic brain injury in a car wreck, being in a coma for six to eight weeks, my parents who only listened to gospel music played this song over and over on cassette tape until I was awake and in rehab, then I still played it constantly. I still l still listen to it on my phone sometimes as I do think it has substantial meaning for people in the world today ❤️

    Just when I think I can’t love Bret Michaels any more (or more than I did when I had a poster of Poison on my wall circa 1988), he goes and adopts a dog, named Bret Michaels, that helped save the life of a kitten, after hearing about the story via a rescue group's social media page and via his sister who lives in the area (apparently).
    So far, it appears Mr Michaels has only slightly altered the 6-year-old husky's name to Brett Jr. Thank you so much for adopting a 6-year-old dog and for helping find that very lucky kitten a home, sir! 🥰
    Now, please get down here to Australia sometime, please and thank you 😊

    Everytime I hear this song it reminds me of my grandmother. It was the last Thanksgiving that we spent together. She was in the living room, watching TV and I was in my bedroom listening to my poison CD. This song came on and the next thing I know, my grandmother, with her walker, had walked into my room and asked me to play this song again. When the song ended, she said that's a very special song. She asked to hear some other songs, so I played Every Rose Has It's Thorn. She said that's a really good song too. She asked what else do they sing. So I played Unskinny Bop. When that finished, my grandmother said, "Well I guess they have a wide range of talent" and then she walked back out to the living room. It's the last memory I have of my grandmother before she passed away.

      Because it's not music anymore. The record companies go after the money. And now days there's younger people think that rap is music. And I have always said that rap is not music not even close. I really thought green day was going to be the band to save the younger people from that DUMBASS SHIT rap but they just disappeared. I saw green day as really rock and roll they remind me of THE WHO they were that good.

      Seems nobody knows how to write music from the heart, it's all about the money machine turning with no heart or soul behind it. Miss the music I grew up with. Feeling, soul, heat, touching millions of people. Good Ole days. Sigh.

    @POISON : Once upon a time, rock artists produced quality songs both lyrically and musically. It was a delight for the ears of every rock music lover. You could listen to it endlessly. It had a special impact for many. The sixties, seventies, eighties... great times or in other words heydays for rock music. It may be said, America has fantastic rock bands...! "Something To Believe In..." released in 1990 and still popular in 2023...! Thank you Bret Michaels, C.C. DeVille, Rikki Rockett and Bobby Dall for one of your masterpieces and may you be well. Greetings from Belgium (Europe) and Florida (USA).

My heart beaks to see the homeless, as I have been there before.There IS someone to believe in, but we , being human , make choices. All have consequences, both good and bad. I am glad this song helped me to remember where I've been and where I want to be. Thank you for the upload.
