POISON - Cover Of The Rolling Stone video free download

from album Crack A Smile And More

lyric

Coughing, Blues?: "Gol, Bret--don't touch me there!"

Bret: I'm gonna tell you who we are.

Well we're big rock singers

we got golden fingers

And we're loved everywhere we go

(That sounds like us)

We sing about beauty

and we sing about truth

At ten million dollars a show

(Yeah, right!)

We take all kinda pills

That give us all kinda thrills

But the thrill we've never known

Is the thrill that it gets ya

when you get your picture

On the cover of the Rolling Stone

Chorus:

Rolling Stone

I'm gonna see my picture on the cover

Stone

Gonna buy five copies for my mother

Stone

Gonna see my smiling face

On the cover of the Rolling Stone

I got a freaky old lady named Cocaine Katie

Who embroiders on my jeans

I got my poor old gray-haired Daddy

Driving my limousine.

Now it's all designed to blow our minds,

But our minds won't really be blown

Like the blow that'll getcha

When you get your picture

On the cover of the Rolling Stone

Chorus

Spoken: Hey, I know how!!!

Solo

Spoken: Beautiful!

We gotta lot of little teen-aged

blue-eyed groupies

Who do anything we say

We got a genuine Indian Guru

He's teaching us a better way

We got all the friends that money can buy,

So we never have to be alone

And we keep gettin' richer,

But we can't get our picture

On the cover of the Rolling Stone

Chorus

Talking:

I don't know why we ain't on the cover, baby!

Ah we're beautiful fellas!

I ain't kiddin' you man, we'd make a beautiful cover

I mean, I can see it right now--we be up front,

Oh, we be smilin'....Beautiful!

Poison comenzó a grabar su sexto álbum Crack a Smile en 1994, pero la grabación se suspendió abruptamente debido a un accidente donde se vio involucrado el vocalista Bret Michaels, el cual perdió el control de su Ferrari, sufriendo fractura de huesos y pérdida de cuatro dientes. Después de la recuperación en 1995 la banda continuó grabando.

Para este momento el Rock Pesado había perdido popularidad y para contrarrestar un poco la situación, la banda saco un disco de éxitos en 1996 que fue platino y después de 8 años de separación Michaels y DeVille arreglaron sus diferencias y la reunión finalmente fue en 1999

Para el 2000 finalmente el álbum Crack a Smile pudo ser lanzado, posteriormente en el mismo año Poison lanza Power of the people que marcó el regreso de C.C. DeVille a la banda.

Poison began recording their sixth album, Crack a Smile, in early 1994. Recording was brought to an abrupt halt in May 1994, when Michaels was involved in a car accident where he lost control of his Ferrari. Michaels suffered a broken nose, ribs, jaw, and fingers and lost four teeth. After his recovery in 1995, the band continued recording the album. However, in the face of 1980s-style hair metal being almost completely gone and with a shift in staff at the label, Capitol Records offered little support for a new Poison record. Recording the album was halted for a second time. Instead, the label opted for a Greatest Hits compilation, which featured two new tracks with Saraceno on guitar, "Sexual Thing" and "Lay Your Body Down". The record was released on November 26, 1996, and went two times platinum, despite the lack of an immediate tour to support the album

Hardcore fans uncovered copies of Crack a Smile from the numerous bootlegs that were beginning to surface, but it wasn't long before a shortfall in supply became evident. Fans clamored for an official release fearing that not only was the album becoming a collectors piece but was also quite possibly "their best album to date." On March 14, 2000, Crack a Smile...and More! was finally released with extra tracks to combat the bootleg industry. That being Poison's seventh album after the Greatest Hits: 1986-1996 album took its place as the sixth, fans were calling it "The Lost Album". Crack a Smile...and More! was a bright and raunchy series of party anthems, containing few traces of the seriousness of Native Tongue. However it did host various outtakes from the Open Up And Say...Ahh! and Flesh and Blood sessions. "One More For The Bone" and "Set You Free", both outtakes, were originally planned for use as B-sides though no single selection was ever made. In addition to the outtakes, live recordings from the 1990 installment of the MTV Unplugged series were included.
