Kickstart my heart

"Kickstart My Heart" is a song by the American rock band Mötley Crüe, originally released on their 1989 album, Dr. Feelgood. The song was written by Nikki Sixx about his famous overdose in which he was declared clinically dead before being revived by two adrenaline shots to the heart. The video clip was shot in the Whisky-A-Go-Go during the Mötley Crüe's warm up show before embarking on the Dr. Feelgood Tour. For the 'Carnival of Sins' tour 2005, "Kickstart My Heart" was used as the band's closing song of a concert. Released as the album's second single in 1989, "Kickstart My Heart" reached #27 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in the United States.[1] The introduction is a classic example of a Floyd Rose bridge trick, in which Mick Mars drops 3 consecutive strings resulting in sound similar to a car shifting gears.
