Let’s Get Rocked On Haikus about Def Leppard

School friends form a band

Rick and Pete start jamming, and

Def Leppard is born.

On Through the Night,

debut album release brings

fans a new delight.

High 'n' Dry follows,

with Mutt Lange producing and

Pyromania nears.

Photograph's the hit,

Pyromania ignites and

Steve Clark takes a bow.

Hysteria strikes,

Animal and Pour Some Sugar

are chart-topping highs.

Adrenalize comes,

a tribute to Steve Clark,

but no longer here.

Slang shifts their sound,

more experimental bound,

with darker tones found.

Euphoria's bliss,

hit song Promises allures,

even with their past.

X marks the unknown,

Guitarist Vivian Campbell

joins the band they've grown.

Long hiatus ends,

Phil Collen's hair metal blues,

New music transcends.

Def Leppard reborn,

Songs from the Sparkle Lounge bright,

with riffs and synth horns.

Mirrorball's career,

Celebration of classic,

Greatest hits, live cheers.

Joe Elliott’s voice,

Still resonates through the years,

Tribute to heroes.

Def Leppard rocks on,

Stadium tours bring it back,

Fans won't let it die.

Vivian's cancer,

Struggles with chemotherapy,

But still takes the stage.

Record label fight,

Lawsuit settled, fair justice,

Streaming revenue.

Rick Allen's drum beats,

With one arm, he’s still the best,

Survive and conquer.

Tour with Crue set,

COVID-19 derails it,

One more setback met.

Rock and Roll Hall,

Inducted to join the greats,

With their peers stand tall.

Def Leppard's legacy,

Still inspiring new rockers,

With their hits that roar.
