BEHIND THE SONG

Inspiration and background

Researched recording background

Def Leppard originally released this recording on High 'n' Dry in 1981. The band's discography explicitly lists a later 1984 remix; the screenshot anthology tag alone does not prove that remix.

Evidence scope: Sourced release and recording context; not an account of songwriter intent
