' She's Only Happy When She's Dancin'' follows, and this track was a little more easily understood by teenaged me. But it does have a great, persistent drumbeat, a decent guitar solo and, now that I understand it, the lyrics are actually quite sad. When I first listened to this song, I didn't really understand it (I was 14 years old! give me a break).
Now, this is a good song, but to me it is one of the lesser songs on the album. Side one (yes, still sides!) opens with ' One Night Love Affair'. Having said that, I have not bought any of the re-release or updated editions because, to me, it is perfect the way it is. It was one of the first CDs I bought when I got my first player because I'd worn the second cassette out as well. I wore it out and had to replace it within 2 years. I already owned the 45 of ' Run To You' and when I saw the cassette at a special price for scouts, I used a large chunk of my spending money to grab it. Now, I bought this on cassette when I was at the Scout Jamboree somewhere in New South Wales in late 1984, early 1985. There's not too many more, so don't worry… Yes, this is another classic album I'm writing about where I like every single song. But none of his subsequent releases were as consistently good as Reckless, with every song being at the very least really good. While this album was an excellent album, Bryan Adams did not rest on his laurels, continuing to release big-selling albums and great singles over the ensuing decades.
