The tour had originally been postponed due to COVID-19 but is “back on.” Five new dates were recently announced for the tour for North America and Canada. Their “Stadium Tour” celebrates the band’s 45th year together. Def Leppard celebrates 45 yearsĭef Leppard is currently on tour with Joan Jett, Motley Crue, and Poison. It just makes you wonder what we’ve not done because it never happened,” said Elliot. “This is the great sliding doors moment of any situation like that, what happens if…? It’s superb, it really is hilarious. It reached number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 in July 1988 and ranked number two on VH1’s 100 Greatest Songs of the 80s. The song went on to become the band’s signature song. The smiles broke out after about 45 seconds, luckily.” “You could imagine they were like, ‘you’ve got to be joking,’ and I said, ‘Nah Nah just wait, listen’. “Within a minute, as soon as we walked in, they knew it was a ‘what’s going on’ moment and I said, ‘Guys, we’ve got this other song,’ and there was eye-rolling,” Elliot said. Surely, they didn’t want to add another song, right? Wrong. It had already taken the band two and a half years to record the then album-in-progress. The singer went to the control room to fiddle around on his guitar and producer Robert Lange walked into the room and said, “What was that you were playing? Play it again.”Įlliot thought the producers and the band wouldn’t be on board with recording another song. Lead singer Joe Elliot said the lyrics for the chorus came to him during a break from recording another track on Hysteria. “Pour Some Sugar on Me” comes from the band’s 1987 album Hysteria,and as iconic as the song became, it was written completely on accident. I can’t get enough “Sugar” almost didn’t make the cut.
