Song of the Week: "Home Sweet Home"

I've been hearing this song a lot lately, in movies and on commercials, so it's stuck in my head. That's okay, though, because this is a great song. I remember when I was a kid, and Motley Crue were supposed to be, like, bad for you. Kids weren't supposed to be into heavy metal, anyway, but because of Motley Crue's "Girls, Girls, Girls" video, they were supposed to be especially bad. In that stupid way suburban parents have of overreacting to everything their kids might clap eyes on, my parents didn't want me to hear any of their music. Whatever; I saw that video a ton of times as a kid--and that one Scorpions video MTV wouldn't play until late at night, and Cher's "If I Could Turn Back Time," and I turned out fine. Maybe it's because I had all of that scrambled porn to put it into perspective.

Anyway, this song is awesome. Motley Crue, 1985.
