That piano intro hits the soul every single time, Mötley Crüe’s “Home Sweet Home.”
‘You know I’m a dreamer, but my heart’s of gold…’
After all the chaos, the lights, the road….there’s nothing like coming back to your own home, your people, and that deep sigh of relief. This ballad was born from the band’s own exhaustion after endless touring, craving the simple comfort of home.
It’s for every dreamer who’s chased the wild life but knows the real treasure waits where the heart is.
What’s one of your favorite Motley Crue songs?
"Joy to the World" is from the album Naturally (1970) by Three Dog Night. The song was written by Hoyt Axton, who composed the lyrics in a very relaxed way. Three Dog Night recorded the track and turned it into a super addictive hit, with the amazing vocals of Cory Wells.
Released as a single in 1971, the song spent 6 weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 and became the band's biggest commercial success, selling millions of copies.
The success was so great that the music became a trail of commercials, TV shows and was even covered by various artists over the decades.
