New MÖTLEY CRÜE Single Is A SIMPLE PLAN Leftover - Dec. 13, 2004

Karen Bliss of JAM! Music is reporting that the new MÖTLEY CRÜE single, "If I Die Tomorrow", is actually a leftover song from SIMPLE PLAN's recording sessions for their latest album, "Still Not Getting Any..." The common denominator is Bob Rock, who produced the CRÜE's new material after completing work with the Montreal rock band.

"It's pretty dope to be thinking that such a influential huge band chose to work on a song that we wrote, for their comeback, their greatest hits package and their reunion tour. It's pretty amazing," says SIMPLE PLAN drummer Chuck Comeau, who co-writes SIMPLE PLAN's songs with singer Pierre Bouvier. "They just shot a video. The song's going to radio. It's pretty mind-blowing."

After Rock produced SIMPLE PLAN's follow-up to the 2002's 1.7 million selling debut, "No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls", he went to work with the reformed MÖTLEY CRÜE line-up (Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, Tommy Lee, Mick Mars). Knowing the metal band was looking for new songs to add to its 2-CD anthology, "Red, White & Crue", Rock brought "If I Die Tomorrow" with him.

"It's fun that we wrote the song and we loved it when we wrote it but it didn't really sound like it belonged on the album," says Comeau.

"After our project, (Bob) was going to work with MÖTLEY CRÜE on like four new songs and they were looking for people to the write with and looking for songs, so Bob played them the song and they really liked it. (Bassist) Nikki Sixx worked on some stuff on it, changed a few lines, then they recorded it. It's the original line-up that recorded it, and we're really stoked about it.

Sixx didn't alter much, says Comeau, just a few lines in the verse and some other minor things, but it was enough to give the band a piece of the publishing.

"Anytime you write a song with anybody, you have to figure out how you split it up, and it was really chill with them and cool. They could have been jerks and said, 'We're MÖTLEY CRÜE. We gotta take this.' But they're not like that at all. They were always gentlemanly. It was awesome." Read more.

I like In Through the Out Door the best.

Girls Got Rhythm

Van Halen doesn't just throw shit together...I think you mean shit like Maroon 5, but they aren't rock stars, but you get the picture...

Oh here it comes again

That funny feelin again winding me up inside

Every time we touch

Hey I don't know

Just tell me where to begin cause I never ever

Felt so much

No I can't recall any love at all

Baby this blows 'em all away

It's got what it takes

So tell me why can't this be love

Straight from my heart oh tell me why

Can't this be love

I tell myself

Hey only fools rush in an only time will tell

If we stand the test of time

All I know

You've got to run to win an I'll be damned if

I'll get hung up on the line

Tell me why can't this be love

Baby why can't this be love

Got to know why can't this be love

I wanna know why can't this be love

Great song, great lyrics, better than some song about Dave's car.

Sammy > Dave

But that's just my opinion, I'm not saying anyone who likes Dave better is fucking mad.

what are the best songs van halen did with hagar????????

Well 5150 is a bitchin album.

Among the best are Dreams, When It's Love, Why Can't This Be Love, Right Now, Top of the World, Poundcake...to name a few.
