Nikki Sixx Mötley Crüe Est. 1981

In 1981, four young musicians came together to form the band that would become known as Motley Crue. The band was founded by bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee, who had previously played together in a band called London. They were joined by vocalist Vince Neil and guitarist Mick Mars, and together they created a sound that would become synonymous with the hair metal movement of the 1980s.

Motley Crue’s early years were spent playing the club circuit in Hollywood, California. They quickly built a dedicated fanbase with their energetic live shows and catchy, hard-hitting songs. In 1982, the band released their debut album, “Too Fast for Love,” which was independently produced and distributed. The album’s success helped the band secure a record deal with Elektra Records, and they quickly began work on their follow-up album, “Shout at the Devil.”

“Shout at the Devil” was released in 1983, and it was a massive commercial success. The album’s title track and “Looks That Kill” both reached the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and the album itself reached the top 20 on the Billboard 200. This success helped to establish Motley Crue as one of the biggest and most successful bands of the 1980s.

The band’s success continued with the release of “Theatre of Pain” in 1985, which featured the hit single “Home Sweet Home.” This album was followed by “Girls, Girls, Girls” in 1987, which featured the hit singles “Wild Side” and “Girls, Girls, Girls.” Throughout the 1980s, Motley Crue was known for their wild and over-the-top live shows, which often featured pyrotechnics, fire, and other special effects.

Motley Crue’s success continued into the 1990s, with the release of “Dr. Feelgood” in 1989, which was their most successful album, reaching No.1 on the Billboard 200. The band’s success continued with “Motley Crue” in 1994, which reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200.

The band’s influence on the hard rock and heavy metal genre is undeniable, and their music continues to be enjoyed by fans around the world. They were one of the most popular band of the 80’s who had a huge impact in the music industry and their legacy still lives on. Motley Crue’s ability to evolve, adapt and create music that appeals to a wide range of fans is one of the reasons they were able to sustain a successful career over several decades.

In conclusion, Motley Crue formed in 1981 and quickly rose to fame, becoming one of the biggest and most successful bands of the 1980s. Their music and performances have left a lasting impact on the music industry and their legacy still lives on today.

Mötley Crüe – The Dirt (Est. 1981)

Lyrics

The sex, the cash, the fame
Living out a life you can’t deny
The drugs, the lies, the pain
Will never get enough to satisfy
They never found a way to break us down
That’s why we’re still around

Gimme the dirt
Just gimme the dirt
Just gimme what I want ’til it hurts
Just gimme the dirt
Gimme the dirt

Let’s take it to the top and watch it burn
The fight, the hate, the game
Not afraid to stab you from behind
The years, the months, the days
Never gave a fuck about the time
They never found a way to break us down
That’s why we’re still around

Gimme the dirt
Just gimme the dirt
Just gimme what I want ’til it hurts
Just gimme the dirt
Gimme the dirt

Let’s take it to the top and watch it burn
More sex, more tats, more blood, more pain
More threats, more theft, torn jeans, cocaine
Midnight ride down the Sunset Strip
New bike with the plate read the 666
Give me more sex, more tats, more blood, more pain
More threats, more theft, torn jeans, cocaine
More pretty strippers with the big red lips
Making big tips, showing off the nice big tits, ha

Gimme the dirt
Just gimme the dirt
Just gimme what I want ’til it hurts
Gimme the dirt
Just gimme the dirt
Just gimme what I want ’til it hurts
Just gimme the dirt
Gimme the dirt

Let’s take it to the top and watch it burn
Give me more sex, more tats, more blood, more pain
More threats, more theft, torn jeans, cocaine
More pretty strippers with the big red lips
Making big tips, showing off the nice big tits, ha
