The Metal 80s: 'Somebody Save Me' by Cinderella (1987)

I don't know why I haven't already had an 80s metal series, but here it begins, and it starts with American heavy-metal/glam-metal band Cinderella and their 1987 hit Somebody Save Me. Cinderella originated out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, and was founded in 1983 by Tom Keifer (singer-songwriter, keyboardisand bassist Eric Brittingham and also included guitarist Michael Smerick and drummer Tony Destra. The band would produce many multi-platinum albums in the 1980s. Somebody Save Me was the third single off of the band's 1987 triple platinum album Night Songs.  It would peak at #66 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and hit #37 on the Album Rock Chart. And so, there is the first heavy-metal 80s post, stay tuned for more 80s fans.  :-)
