Rock Rock ('Til You Drop)
"Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)" is a track by English hard rock band Def Leppard from their 1983 album, '' Pyromania''. An edited version was released as a single in Mexico that same year. History The history of "Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)" predates the ''Pyromania'' recording sessions by a few years. Def Leppard first played a song by the title "Medicine Man" on their first UK headlining tour in April 1980. "Medicine Man", which appears in its original form twice as live tracks on the band's 2020 box set '' The Early Years 79–81'', contains the main guitar parts and structure of "Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)." The song was rewritten to include new rhythm and lyrics, and a solo by Def Leppard's newest band member Phil Collen, to debut as the opening track on the 1983 multi-platinum ''Pyromania''. Though not released as a single in major markets, the song was released as a single in Mexico, and a music video was released. The song is one of the few non-singles to appear in many l ...

Def Leppard
Def Leppard are an English rock band formed in 1976 in Sheffield. Since 1992, the band has consisted of Rick Savage (bass, backing vocals), Joe Elliott (lead vocals), Rick Allen (drums, backing vocals), Phil Collen (guitar, backing vocals), and Vivian Campbell (guitar, backing vocals). They established themselves as part of the new wave of British heavy metal movement of the early 1980s. The band's greatest commercial success came between the early 1980s and the early 1990s. Their first album, 1980's ''On Through the Night'', reached the Top 15 in the UK but received little notice elsewhere. Their second album, 1981's ''High 'n' Dry'', was produced by Mutt Lange, who helped them begin to define their melodic hard rock style, and the album's most popular track "Bringin' On the Heartbreak" became one of the first rock videos played on MTV in 1982, but the album only reached the Top 30 and 40 in the UK and US. Def Leppard's next studio album, ''Pyromania'', was released in Janua ...

Songs Written By Robert John "Mutt" Lange
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers fo ...
