Rocktober Hair Band Song #2: "Same Ol' Situation (S.O.S.)" by Motley Crüe

Today is Tommy Lee's 55th birthday.  Before he was banging Pam Anderson on video, he was the drummer Motley Crüe, so it only makes sense to go with a Motley Crüe song.  I'm going to go with my favorite Crüe song, "Same Ol' Situation (S.O.S.)" off of their 1989 mega-album Dr. Feelgood.  I've always loved this song, and the line "I used to call her Cindy / She changed her name to Cin" was one of those lines that immediately stuck with me, even as a 12-year-old.  As an added bonus, the video was filmed at a concert in Alpine Valley, just north of the Illinois border in Wisconsin, where I saw my first concert.  Granted, I saw George Michael, not Motley Crüe, but still.
