This is Track #5 from the 1990 Stryper album, "Against The Law" Listen to the whole album here -
Stryper's 1990 release was probably my favourite. This is in no small part because of the more commercial sound of the album as I've never been a huge Metal fan. This album was very well produced but I bet the Metal fans of Stryper thought it was over produced. The JPM count on this album is much much lower than usual from them. I really think this album could have been a commercial success if it had just come out a few years earlier. Unfortunately at this point in history Rock & Roll was headed to it's dreaded grunge sound. The album actually has several songs centered on women and I bet there's an interesting story in Michael Sweet's life at the time. To me one of the stand out tracks is "Lady" which is an excellent rock ballad that could have easily played on radio just a few years earlier. The strange cut on the album is a cover of Earth Wind & Fire's Shining Star which actually is pretty good. They did close out the album with a Metal song for their base fans, "Rock the Hell Out of You"
