Def Leppard True to their stripes
Def Leppard is back in the spotlight. Well, kind of.
A Def Leppard song is back in the spotlight at least, now that Mariah Carey has covered the 1981 power ballad Bringin' On The Heartbreak, with the accompanying video getting heaps of play on video stations such as MuchMusic and MTV.
Carey's diva-fied version of the tune is not sitting well with some of the Leps's hardcore fans, however.
"They've really reacted weirdly to it," Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen said Friday in a phone interview to promote the U.K. hard rock band's concert tonight at the Pengrowth Saddledome.
