Who sang this tune?

Post by Peter Fitzwell »

Back in the late 80s/early 90s, a song came out called "You're Like a Tattoo." I can see the album cover in my mind, but I can't for the life of me remember who did the song. It's was "hair-metal-esque."

It had a neat little talkbox part in it.

Any help would be appreciated.

NO. NO. NO. I hope you were kidding. Honestly, no, not Jordan Sparks.

It was a four man band, I just can't remember the name.

Oh I dunno then, i just googled it and those words were in the lyrics.

Maybe check a guitar tab or lyrics site?

Thank You!!!! The name was on the tip of my tongue. I can still picture the album cover (I had the cassette).

Now hopefully I can download it.

Thanks again, I can now rest at night.

The videos on YouTube....

Looks like it was recorded off of HeadBangers Ball but I'll be damned if I ever remember hearing this song....
