Def Leppard Lyrics

Def Leppard is a rock band from Sheffield, England, which formed in 1977 and has been identified as part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement. The band consists of Joe Elliot (vocals), Phil Collen (lead guitar), Vivian Campbell (rhythm guitar), Rick Savage (bass guitar), and Rick Allen (drums). The band has sold over 65 millions albums worldwide, and have two albums with RIAA diamond certification, Pyromania and Hysteria.

Rick Savage (who originally played guitar in the Atomic Mass, and then switched to bass), Pete Willis (guitar), and Tony Kenning (drums), all students at Tapton School in Sheffield, formed a band called Atomic Mass in 1977. Following a chance meeting with Willis after missing a bus, only 18 at the time, Joe Elliott tried out for the band as a guitarist. During his audition, however, it was decided that he was better suited to be the lead singer.

Their first ever gig was in the dining hall in A Block in Westfield School in Mosborough, Sheffield.
