Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me(#ad)
Lead singer Joe Elliot's brain child "Pour Some Sugar On Me" is not only Def Leppard's best song to date, but has been ranked as one of the top 3 songs of all times by many online magazines, television networks as well as traditional magazines.
Even though "Pour Some Sugar On Me" has no explicit lyrics, many fans consider this song to be Def Leppard most profane single to date and point towards this specific line from the song.."Do you take sugar? One lump or two?" , which they say is Joe Elliot asking the girl if she is interested in threesome or not.
Selling 3 million copies in the U.K, another 4 million in the United States..."Pour Some Sugar On Me" was chosen as the best video of Top 300 Music Videos of all time by MTV Networks in 1991.
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C’mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can’t get enough
I’m hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet yeah...
This part of the lyrics in itself contributed to the entire Hysteria album's success and is still a major 'selling factor' for the album in the itunes store.
But there were hardly any hot women (there was a grumpy woman in the U.K version trying to blow Def Leppard's house) or no women at all for "Pour Some Sugar On Me" U.S edition's music video.
Yet this song has become the anthem of love making all over the globe, being played in many underground bars in the U.K and U.S..almost incessantly in the early 90s.
The story behind "Pour Some Sugar On Me" is equally intriguing as it was never meant to be in Hysteria album, ever! until Robert Lange Hysteria's uncanny producer was sharp enough to notice drummer Rick Allen's engrossing MIDI beats, eventually asking him to develop on his MIDI beats to create a patterned rhythm.
The beats were so impressive that Def Leppard decided to postpone the release of Hysteria by a few more months (from May to August 1987) to polish and finalize "Pour Some Sugar On Me".
Robert 'mutt' Lange, the genius of a producer responsible for many multi platinum albums including AC/DC's Highway to Hell,Back in Black and his ex-wife Shania Twian's best selling Country album ever Come On Over...was having a casual chat with Def Leppard's lead singer Joe Elliot, when they grasped the title out of thin air, hence "Pour Some Sugar On Me" was born and released to public on the 8th of September 1987.

Step inside, walk this way
You and me babe, Hey, hey!
Love is like a bomb, baby, see'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?
(Your man)
Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Television lover, baby, go all night
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss ah innocent sugar me, yeah
Yeah!
So see'mon, take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
See'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah
Listen! Red light, yellow light, green-a-light go!
Crazy little woman in a one man show
Mirror queen, mannequin, rhythm of love
Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up
You gotta squeeze a little, tease a little
Please a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah
Yeah,
Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
See'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah
You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
Cause I'm hot, (too hot), sticky sweet
From my head, (my head) to my feet
Do you take sugar? One lump or two?
Take a bottle (take a bottle), shake it up (Shake it up)
Break the bubble, (break the bubble) break it up (Break it up)
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
See'mon fire me up
