Joe Elliott on "Pyromania": Goodbye Pete Willis, hello Phil Collen. We decided to try to do something that no other rock band had tried before - blueprint "Sgt. Pepper" (but a bit heavier). A period in time when we allowed our Pop sensibility to come to the fore ... and guess what? Our first major success...huge in the U.S. ... but nowhere else .... (the postcard from "Work It Out" single)
"We just wanted to put a smile on people's faces. That's all we ever wanted to do."
"Is there a curse? Jon Bon Jovi is convinced of it. He won't travel in a car with me!"
"People always ask me how we got the name Def Leppard. Actually, it came from a poster I had made which depicted a rather strange-looking jungle cat with a hearing horn at his ear. I called him the deaf leopard. The guys in the band loved the poster, and after a bit of work, we decided to call ourselves Def Leppard. The name is funny, but it has strength."
"They called us 'bludgeon riffola' - it was a complete slag off. So just to show that we didn't really care we picked up on the phrase and used to for the record label."
"Our producer, Mutt Lange, is perfect for us. He doesn't accept what we do and say, 'OK that's great.' He's always pushing us and challenging us. We like to think that we push ourselves, but having someone like Mutt, who you know is going to always give you an honest opinion, is an invaluable help. He's helped make Def Leppard the band it is today."
"Some of the demos we do are better than a lot of people's albums."
"There's room for everybody - it's not the Olympics. I'd like to be on top, but if the album's successful, that's good enough."
"There's a lot more to being a singer than singing. I don't come off stage thinking that I have a power over people 'cause I don't - it's not a power, it's an ability to be able to communicate with a vast amount of people, something I'm very lucky to be able to do."
"That's the great thing about the future - nobody knows what's going to happen. That's what makes it all exciting."
"Selling out to America? That pisses me off. We're not the first English rock band that went to the States."
"When we set out to replace Steve Clark, Vivian Campbell exceeded our wildest expectations."
"You'd be surprised how many records we've had to sell to pay our debts."
"My mum and dad were the first people to believe in us."
"I was tall and I had long hair and I didn't look wimpy."
"The key to longevity? Maybe putting an album out every four years - people don't get bored of you! No, just joking. I think, not taking yourself too seriously. You've got to have a sense of humor. You have to be strong-willed to put up with all the bullshit that goes with the job. You've got to consistently write good songs, and have the right rock-n-roll attitude. The Stones are a perfect example. If we could last that long, I'd be very happy."
"The band is a millionaire. We as individuals aren't."
