Welcome to [A] WatchMojo.com and [E] today we're counting down our [A] picks for the top 10 Deaf Leopard songs.
For this [Am] list, we've chosen our entries based on a combination of the artist's fan [G] favorites and their most [A] commercially successful songs.
[E]
[Em] [F]
[Dm] Number 10.
[Bb] Bringin' On The [Bm] Heartbreak and Switch 625
[A]
[Am]
[Em] [F]
Deaf Leopard [Bm] practically invented [E] the power ballad and [A] standout [Bb] examples include Love Bites, [Cm] Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad, or Too Late For [Ab] Love.
But we're selecting [Bb] Bringin' On The [G] Heartbreak, a track whose music video was one of [C] the first to be [G] featured heavily on MTV.
[C]
[G] [A] Since [F]
[G] it's sometimes bundled with the instrumental Switch 625, [A] we're combining them [Ab] here to pay tribute to the late, [G] great Steve Clark.
[Eb]
[C]
[Ab] [E]
[C] Number 9.
[Fm] Wasted
[E] When
[A] [C] Steve [E] Clark passed on at the age of 30, he took some of the band's [C] magic with him.
[D] The guitarist was [B] legendary [E] for coining some of hard rock's most memorable [A] riffs, [C] and the band's first [D] album was full [E] of them.
[C] While [Dm] their debut also offered fans [D] epic tracks like Overture and When The [C] Walls Came Tumbling Down,
it's the [D] ominously and ironically [E] titled [C] Wasted that [D] displays Clark's riffing skills best.
[A]
[D] [Am] [D]
[A] [D]
[A] [Em] Number 8.
Gods [Db] Of War
[E] [Gb]
[A] [Bm] With [Dbm] all the songs off its A-side [B] released, [E] Hysteria proved [Gb] to be the [Dbm] band's best-selling album.
[D] Notable hits include Women,
[G]
[E] Rocket, [Dbm]
Animal,
[Gb]
[E] [D] Lovebites and Armageddon.
[E]
But it was the first [D] track on side [A] B, Gods [E] Of War, that really highlighted the band's musical [C] prowess and [G] lyrical [D] maturity.
[G] [C] [G]
[D] [C] That [G] [D] side also [G] gave [D] [G] us
Number 7.
Hysteria
The title track to the band's massively [E] successful album [Em] stands out thanks to [G] its melody,
which symbolized the detail [D]-oriented method to the recording madness of producer Mutt Lam.
[E] [C]
Instead [G] of the more conventional technique [D] of strumming, the famous producer recorded every note [E] one at a time.
[D] His hard work paid off when the [G] single peaked [D] at number 10 [G] on the Billboard Hot [D] 100.
[E]
[C] [D]
Hysteria!
Number 6.
[Bb] Mirror Mirror
[D]
Leopard's second album may go down in history as [Bb] arguably one of the best [D] heavy metal albums ever,
thanks to tracks like [Am] Let It Go, [D]
[A] Lady Strange [F] and another hit and [Am] run.
[G] [Am]
[A] But the [D] highlight is definitely the Steve Clark and Joe Elliott-penned Mirror Mirror.
Just have a listen for yourself to see why.
[Dm]
[Bb]
[Dm]
[Eb] [D] [E]
Number 5.
Coming Under Fire
On the [C] strength of tunes like Rock Of Ages and [G] Coolin', [F] Pyromania propelled [G] Def Leppard to [D] superstardom status.
[F] [Bb] Though [C] both are [Gb] fine [D] tracks that could merit spots on a [C] top ten list, one of the album's strongest songs is [E] Coming Under Fire.
It's just a good old-fashioned rocker that showcases the band at its lyrical, musical and melodic best.
[Gbm]
Number [E]
4.
Die Hard The Hunter
[A] Each of Pyromania's sides ends with dark songs.
[G] While side B has the [A] stellar yet [C] gloomy Billy's Got A Gun,
[Ab] we're choosing side A's ominous [Db] Die Hard The [A] Hunter for our list.
[Am] [A] Why?
Well, cause this six-minute track is one [D] of the finest examples of Phil Collin and Steve [A] Clark's dual guitar style.
[Gb] [F]
[A] [F] [G]
[C] [Gbm] [F]
[E] [Gm] Number 3.
White [E] Lightning
[D] [Bb]
[D] Despite hitting number one in the US and UK,
[Bb] Adrenaline failed to match the euphoria [E] of previous [A] records,
thanks in part to Nirvana and Pearl Jam having [Am] nuked the big hair, big sound of [A] 1980s rock.
Regardless, the album counted [F] many successful singles like Let's Get Rock, Heaven Is [A] and Make [D] Love Like A Man.
[C]
[G] [C] [G]
But [A] it's White Lightning that's one of their best songs ever.

[A] _ Lady Strange [F] and another hit and [Am] run.
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Am] _
_ _ [A] _ But the [D] highlight is definitely the Steve Clark and Joe Elliott-penned Mirror Mirror.
Just have a listen for yourself to see why.

Coming Under Fire
_ On _ the [C] strength of tunes like Rock Of Ages and [G] Coolin', [F] Pyromania propelled [G] Def Leppard to [D] superstardom status. _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ [Bb] _ Though [C] both are [Gb] fine [D] tracks that could merit spots on a [C] top ten list, one of the album's strongest songs is [E] Coming Under Fire. _
_ It's _ _ _ _ _ _ _ just a good old-fashioned rocker that showcases the band at its lyrical, musical and melodic best.
_ _ _ _ [Gbm] _ _

Die Hard The Hunter _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ Each of Pyromania's sides ends with dark songs.
[G] While side B has the [A] stellar yet [C] gloomy Billy's Got A Gun, _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ we're choosing side A's ominous [Db] Die Hard The [A] Hunter for our list. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ [A] Why?
Well, cause this six-minute track is one [D] of the finest examples of Phil Collin and Steve [A] Clark's dual guitar style. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ [G] _ _

_ _ _ [E] _ [Gm] Number 3.
White [E] Lightning
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] Despite hitting number one in the US and UK, _
[Bb] Adrenaline failed to match the euphoria [E] of previous [A] records,
thanks in part to Nirvana and Pearl Jam having [Am] nuked the big hair, big sound of [A] 1980s rock. _
Regardless, the album counted [F] many successful singles like Let's Get Rock, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Heaven Is [A] and Make [D] Love Like A Man.
_ _ [C] _ _
[G] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _

Photograph
_ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[E] [B] With its catchy intro riff [A] and memorable [D] chorus, Photograph [E] was the song that made [A] Def Leppard superstars in the [D] USA.
[A] _ _ [G] _ [A] _ _ [G] _ [C] _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ [G]
The [C] Pyromania number was [Em] also accompanied [D] by an irresistible [Bm] music video [E] featuring Marilyn Monroe, so there's no way it wouldn't make the list. _ _ _

_ Hard Rock Coon
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
Mixing _ glam metal with their brand of rock and roll, the song hit number two on the Billboard Hot 100 in the late 80s.
