She's incredibly attractive and dangerous She's extremely attractive and can be dangerous Note: This section uses generative AI, which can be inaccurate. Now for some interesting facts about the song: ![]() It highlights the importance of not underestimating someone based on their appearance alone and the potential consequences that can come from doing so. Overall, the song portrays a woman as a powerful and dangerous force to be reckoned with. The song is a warning to anyone who tries to take her on, as her looks alone are enough to kill. The clock strikes midnight and she starts looking louder and louder, ready to turn on her juice and power. She’s a number thirteen, meaning she’s a bit of a wildcard and can be unpredictable. The lyrics also describe how this woman is bulletproof and keeps her motor clean. The song portrays her as a deadly predator, with the looks that can kill anyone who dares cross her. Those who don’t know her name might not make it back alive. She is cool, confident, and moves like a cat. The song describes a woman who is razor sharp and will slice anyone apart who doesn’t give her what she wants. I mean, they had everything that Kiss have: they had a uniform look, with their ripped jeans and leather jackets, they had these hooky, power-pop/punk rock songs, and I always feel like they should have been bigger for longer, they should have been huge.The lyrics to Mötley Crüe’s song Looks That Kill are a testament to the power of a woman’s appearance and the danger that can come from underestimating her. But there’s a twist the narrator of the song isn’t a victim of this woman’s charms. The lyrics paint a picture of a seductive siren who leaves a trail of broken hearts in her wake. They should have been one of the biggest bands in the world. The verses of the song describe a woman who uses her beauty as a weapon, luring men in with her looks and then discarding them when she’s done with them. ![]() “I always felt like the Ramones were underrated. ![]() But then she puts on ‘90s pop and I want to hang myself!” We live up in Wyoming now, and my wife will get in my truck and she’ll be like, ‘Aww, can you change the channel?’ And I’ll say, “But listen to this! It sounds just like Fleetwood Mac in ’77!’ She’s not buying it. Looks That Kill deals with themes of dangerous seduction and allure, epitomizing the style and lyrical content found in much of Mtley Cres discography. I love how clever the lyrics are: they’re not the sort of lyrics I’d write, but like there’s a Brad Paisley song called Mud On The Tires which I really appreciate. “Oh God, it’s probably some of this pop-crossover-country that I hear now on the radio that sounds like seventies BTO, or The Guess Who, basically this music that sounds like ‘70s country rock to me. In terms of seeing a guitar player who blew my mind up-close, when Quiet Riot would play the Starwood club in Hollywood in the late seventies I’d be in the first or second row, and Randy Rhoads would come out and it’d be ‘Wow!’ His guitar playing embodied everything that we could possibly love about the guitar.” So that’s a kinda evasive answer, I know. Those two with Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer were such a solid foundation for Aerosmith. “Oh man, there’s so many great guys, right? It depends, do you wanna go down the Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page road, or the Eddie Van Halen road, or then there’s Joe Perry… but then Brad Whitford is also such a player. I’ll listen to Rammstein sometimes before I go on stage too, I’ll lift some weights, do some push-ups, stretch out, and they get me in the mood, so to speak. I guess I discovered Rammstein at the same time as a lot of other people, about ten years ago when I heard Du Hast, and then I saw them live, and they were really great. And specifically their greatest hits, which makes me a bit of a poseur, right? But I want those songs that are just crushing while I’m in the gym lifting weights, trying to fight off age. Maybe it didn’t become a commercial monster like Permanent Vacation, but when I was a teenager, Toys In The Attic and Rocks were monsters.” It’s such a well-crafted album, song-wise, and with the energy of the band… it’s an amazing album. That album captured everything for me, it was raw, and dirty, and yet there was something going on that, especially when I was a kid, I couldn’t really understand, because there were so many rhythms and overdubs. “For me, it’s gotta be Rocks by Aerosmith. ![]()
