Who here hasn’t heard of Bryan Adams? The Canadian rocker has made a name for himself for his amazing love songs, the most popular one being "(Everythig I do) I do it for you". It is featured in the soundtrack of the 1991 movie Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves starring Kevin Costner. It spent months at number one on the charts worldwide. And with a voice like his, singing slower love songs with beautiful lyrics make such sense. You might also remember his duet with Barbara Stresiand for the soundtrack of Mirror Has Two Faces, starring Streisand and Jeff Bridges. And who can forget the beautiful acoustic number "Have you ever really loved a woman?" featured in the movie Don Juan DeMarco starring Johnny Depp?
There are many more greatly successful romantic hits by the man. But this is the great thing about good rockers. They are just as good at the mischievously fun stuff as they are good at the romantic songs. While these songs may not have been as popular as the ones I listed above, they show the listeners one hell of a good time. And to be honest, I like them much, much more. After all, you don’t get that many energetic rock songs sung by a vocalist like Bryan. And he always writes or co-writes his own lyrics so Bryan just might be less of a romantic than people think. Here is another side to Adams:

Do to you: This is from the album 18 Till I Die, released in 1996. It is my favorite Adams album. It is really fast with lots of songs you can dance to but it also features lovely slow songs as well so that you can catch your breath from all that dancing and singing along. Do to you is one of the songs that will really make you move. So if you just have excess energy, you better use this song. It is also strongly recommended for playing during fitness activities. The lyrics go something like this:
“ If ya love somebody- if ya need someone
If ya want somebody-ya-let me be the one I wanna) do to you what you do to me Do to you what you do to me Let me treat ya right-ya-show I care Cuz every night, I’ll take you there Do to you what you do to me
Do to you what you do to me”
Bryan Adams’ site gives you chance to make your own playlist where you can click on the Music Player and drag any song from the list. Do to You is included. It is not the whole song, but it will give a decent idea. I couldn’t find the song on youtube.
The Only Thing Looks Good on me is You- This is also from 18 Till I Die album. This is the first track and it has seen the number one position in the UK. I had the privilege to listen to this song live at an Adams concert. This is one wonderful concert song and it was one hell of an experience singing the song looking and pointing at Bryan Adams while he is looking and pointing at the audience If this one doesn’t energize you, I don’t know what will.
“Try it on, baby.
Well, I don't look good in no Armani suits, No Gucci shoes or designer boots. I've tried the latest lines from a to z,
But there's just one thing that looks good on me.
The only thing I want,
The only thing I need, The only thing I choose, yeah,
The only thing that looks good on me ... is you. “
I have included both the official video and a live version.

If Ya Wanna Be Bad-Ya gotta be good- This song is on Bryan’s MTV Unplugged Album, released in 1997. The song is combined with Bryan Adams’ Let’s make a night to remember from the album 18 Till I die but the real mischief is in this one:
“She got a nasty reputation and a talent for sin She's the kinda trouble i'd like to be in I wanna be a lover - I wanna be a slave But she's the kinda women makes me wanna misbehave So give it what you want boy - let's make it understood
That if ya wanna be bad ya gotta be good
She says there'll be no lying - no foolin' around
No seven day weekends - No nights on the town Well that's the way I want it -
That's the way it's gotta be
If you're looking for trouble better get it from me
So get on your knees boy and do what you should If ya wanna be bad ya gotta be good
No she makes the laws -
She calls the shots Do what she wants if you want what she's got Can't have it both ways - you gotta chose She can give you the rhythm or she can give you the blues Oh, if you want sugar better bring it on home Better keep it in the kitchen 'cause that's where it belongs You gotta make her happy boy Just take it from me Or you'll never get none of that tlc If you're tryin' to get lucky - better knock on wood
If ya wanna be bad ya gotta be good”

I wanna be your underwear: Well, of all of the songs this is the naughtiest and the least subtle one. It is also a song that can prove why men can love Bryan Adams. Some men are turned off by a singer/songwriter who wrote songs like Everything I do after all. But hey, as I said before, Bryan isn’t all about the romance.This video has nothing to do with me and doesn’t featurte anything about Adams but the audio track used is “I wanna be your underwear”. Enjoy.
“I wanna be your t-shirt when i t's wet - wanna be the shower when you sweat I gotta to be the tattoo on your skin - ya lemme be your bed baby - when you climb in I wanna be the sheets when you sleep - lemme be the secrets that you keep I gotta be the spoon - ta stir your cream I wanna to be the one that really makes you scream I wanna be - your lipstick when ya lick it I wanna be - your high heels when ya kick it I wanna be - your sweet love babe - ya when you make it
From your feet up to your hair - more than anything I swear
I wanna be - your underwear
I wanna be the itch that you scratch - wanna be your chair when you relax I got to be your razor when you shave Wanna be the habit that really makes you crave I wanna be - your hot tub - when you're dippin' I wanna be - your bathrobe - when you're drippin' I wanna be - your cocktail baby - when you're sippin'
I just wanna be right there - more than anything I swear
I wanna be - your underwear
Wanna be your sleepin' bag - baby slip inside
Let me be your motorcycle n' take ya for a ride - alright I wanna be - your hot sauce - ya when you're cookin' I wanna be - your sunglasses - hey good lookin' I wanna be - wanna be the one - ya stick your hook in'
I just wanna be right there - more than anything I swear
Oh ya I wanna be - your underwear”
