February 28, 2008 - Thursday ~ Being a Teenager ~~

Current mood: aroused


UGH!! LOL So I just typed out this damn thing & was almost done & it got deleted damn myspace is always doing that to me. . .



So anyways, from about 14. . . I was pretty much a "troubled" child. . lol. . so they say! probably before that . . . Anyways . . this song. . I love/d it. . . This was one of my absolute favs as a young teen. . .



I loved Skid Row . . . (still do!) & was SOOOOO glad when i got to see them in 1992!

Skid Row started by Bolan & Snake in NJ in 1986.

In addition to being the year I saw them, 1992 was the year they released their 2nd album "Slave to the Grind". Skid Row had some problems & tension, and 1995 brought them releasing "Subhuman Race" under great strain.

The group was seperated, but 1999 brought Bolan & Snake realizing they didn't want Skid Row to die forever! Some changes were made to the band, bringing a new lead singer - Johnny Solinger, & a new and drummer Dave Gara. Scotti Hill is still with them too, being another of the originals.

I still love Bas & he is still doing his own thing too. He is as good as ever. . at least IMO!:) Still has a kicka$$ voice too:) (Bas: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=54524288 )

(hehe I even had a snake for over 5yrs named Sebastian after him:) hehe



Youth Gone Wild

[Bolan, Snake]

Since I was born they couldn't hold me down
Another misfit kid, another burned-out town

Never played by the rules I never really cared
My nasty reputation takes me everywhere

I look and see it's not only me
So many others have stood where I stand
We are the young so raise your hands

They call us problem child
We spend our lives on trial
We walk an endless mile
We are the youth gone wild
We stand and we won't fall
We're the one and one for all
The writing's on the wall
We are the youth gone wild

Boss screamin' in my ear about who I'm supposed to be
Getcha a 3-piece Wall Street smile and son you'll look just like me

I said "Hey man, there's something that you oughta know.
I tell ya Park Avenue leads to Skid Row."

I look and see it's not only me
We're standin' tall ain't never a doubt
We are the young, so shout it out

They call us problem child
We spend our lives on trial
We walk an endless mile
We are the youth gone wild
We stand and we won't fall
We're the one and one for all
The writing's on the wall
We are the youth gone wild

They call us problem child
We spend our lives on trial
We walk an endless mile
We are the youth gone wild
We stand and we won't fall
We're the one and one for all
The writing's on the wall
We are the youth gone wild
We are the youth gone wild
