On this day, November 20, 1989, Mötley Crüe released their adrenaline-pumping single “Kickstart My Heart.” Featured on their album Dr. Feelgood, the track quickly became one of the band’s most iconic songs, celebrated for its blistering riffs and high-octane energy.
Written by bassist Nikki Sixx, the song was inspired by his near-death experience and subsequent revival after a heroin overdose. “Kickstart My Heart” is not only a rock anthem but also a testament to the band’s wild lifestyle and ability to turn chaos into unforgettable music.
