"Don't You Ever Leave Me" by Hanoi Rocks
The Finnish hard rock band Hanoi Rocks never achieved mainstream success in the US, but were hugely influential in igniting the glam and hairband craze developing in the 80s. Led by the charismatic Michael Monroe, the band released a flurry of albums in the early 80s that have became cult favorites among fans of the genre. Among their more melodic cuts, "Don't You Ever Leave Me" seemed to have the most potential to make it on radio. The band also did a rousing cover of Creedence Clearwater Revival's hit, "Up Around The Bend" that remains a favorite.
