Poison – Open Up and Say Ahh (1988)

“Fallen Angel” was released 14 years ago (1988) on very popular album “Open Up and Say Ahh“. In this point I should also add that this album contained most popular songs recorded by Poison and even in whole glam metal genre in 80s. Those songs are: “Nothin’ But A Good Time” (#6 on Billboard 200) and “Every Rose Has It’s Thorn” (#1 on Billboard 200).

And finally, today’s song – “Fallen Angel” that was charted #12 on Billboard 200.

It’s really phenomenon in music as a whole that so many songs from single album peaked so high at once. How many artists and bands achieved this same success?
