My Gypsy Road Can't Take Me Home

I love any videos that feature glam rock bands strolling through the normal streets of some unnamed town somewhere. They never stand out. I wish just once one of these bands would have gotten the crap beat out of them by some guys in a truck driving along and mistaking the band as some sort of weird gang coming to invade and take over their territory. Anyway the boys from Cinderella decided it would be a good idea to ride some horses and shoot a video someplace in Mexico I'm guessing. Here they are with the terribly out of place, but aptly named video "Gypsy Road"...

All Night

Today's song and video was the debut for the glam metal band Cinderella. The song didn't chart, but it paved the way for the next song, "Nobody's Fool" which was a top 20 hit in the U.S. So check out the song and video that introduced the Philadelphia band to the rest of the country - "Shake Me"...

I Can't Tell Ya Baby What Went Wrong

Sometimes I hear today's band and think to myself 'is this really this guy's real voice?' Honestly I can't listen to today's glam-metal band for more than about 3-4 minutes at a time because of it, and I sure didn't listen to this ballad when it came out back in August of 1988. Not one of my favorites. The band is Cinderella and the thing I notice now about this video is how strange and out of place it seems for a glam-metal band all decked out in their 80's glam-metal attire outside with all these nature backdrops. It seems very weird and out of place... just like lead singer Tom Kiefer's voice. Here is the band's most successful single "Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)"...

I'm Not Your Fool

Happy April Fool's day and as a warning to not be a fool... here is today's featured video that comes to us from the glam band from Philly called Cinderella... you ever noticed how lead singer Tom Keifer has those Steven Tyler lips going on in this song, and what's up with the chick running down the street dressed like a hooker and then in the end is running down the street again in some sort of white night gown? Here is "Nobody's Fool"...

Somebody...

Formed in Philly in 1982, this band rocked the glam metal world as well as any other band in the mid to late 80s... making their debut on The Excellent 80s, it's Cinderella doing an awesome acting job at the end when the girls end up with members of that "other" popular rock band... check out "Somebody Save Me"...
