I checked out Motley Crue’s latest album, “Saints of Los Angeles”, featuring the group’s original lineup. After blogging about the title track, “Saints of Los Angeles”, which I think takes us back to the good old 80’s rock and roll.
The other songs on the album is rather weak though, nothing stands out as much as this tune, “The Animal In Me”, a mid-tempo rock tune which I feel, if released, should do considerably well in the rock charts.
Motley Crue - The Animal in Me
It feels like thunder
When we’re slowly diggin in
It kinda makes me wonder
About the lovers that have been.
Lyin in my bed with her hands tied up
I knew it all along that it wasnt enough
Cus when I gotta taste of you
I found somethin I could sink my teeth into
Its an ache that never heals
Its the deepest cut you feel
Its the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me
Its the darker side of lust
Its the other side of us
Its the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me
I wanna be your last breath
Before we suffocate
A kiss you cant forget
Like a wedding on a rainy day
The chills keep shootin’ down the back of my neck
Like a freight train poundin’ in the pit of my chest
Cus when I got a taste of youI found
Somethin I could sink my teeth into

Wow, Nikki and co are still alive? If what I read about them were all true, they all should’ve been dead by now
Yes, i think The Animal In Me is quite good, the hook is there and it’s just my kinda music. Of course it’s always going to be an uphill task to reach the heady heights reached by classics such as Girls Girls Girls, Five Years Dead, Wild Side, Same Old Situation, Dr Feelgood etc etc. They also could pull of ballads with the rest of them (Journey included!) with Without You and You’re All I Need.

ben They are dead? I agree about reaching the heady heights of their previous years. But, this album’s not too tatty.
