Talk:Here I Go Again

message: On the 'Different Recorded Versions', it's stated that the radio edit ( the one with Dann Huff on guitars and Denny Carmassi on drums ) year was 1989.I did some survey and found out there's only 1987 date..Anybody knows more about this?

replies: text:  One version has a very distinctive keyboard fill after the first ""Here I go again on my own"" in each chorus that is absent from more frequently played version(s) -  I find it very jarring! As my original memory of the song is pre-1987 am I right in guessing its the Jon Lord version that has this fill? Stub Mandrel (talk) 13:02, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Radio stations do play the 1987 version, however, it appears only adult contemporary stations play it, and it's not often that they do. This follows a recent trend of adult contemporary stations adding in songs from the glam metal era that did not chart on the AC chart. Some of the songs added include Pour Some Sugar on Me by Def Leppard among others. Bon Jovi makes sense since a lot of their post-1980's stuff has charted on the AC chart (practically every album since since These Days had at least one AC hit), even though most of their 1980's hits did not.Moline1 (talk) 18:47, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

message: is it worth noting that the song is about lonliness, while the music video has dave showing off his girlfriend every 10 seconds?

message: The article mentions that the lyrics were changed slightly, and gives the original. But doesn't state what they were changed to. This sort of leaves things hanging a little.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.128.122.200 (talk) 01:10, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

message: I've noticed that many adult contemporary stations, especially the ones owned by iheart radio play this song often, even though it was Is This Love that charted on the AC chart, and not this one. I wonder if the 1987 version has an AC feel to it and that's why they play it. They also do it with other glam metal acts such as Def Leppard and Pour Some Sugar On Me. Bon Jovi makes complete sense since a lot of their material starting with These Days had at least one adult contemporary hit. All I can figure with Here I Go Again and Pour Some Sugar On Me is that they were popular enough for AC stations to add them, but not popular enough to dent the chart. That alone could warrant a chart called the Bubbling Under Adult Contemporary chart where songs that weren't popular enough to chart on the main chart, but get airplay anyways, go to chart, similar to the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart. Those two songs definitely would meet the requirements of such a chart if it existed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moline1 (talk • contribs) 18:54, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

message: has repeatedly added mention of a discussion of this song's lyrics on a podcast, sourced only to that podcast itself (hosted on Wordpress). I don't agree that the podcast's episode is significant enough to include. The podcast itself is just three KISS fans talking about songs, and there is no independent coverage that gives any weight to their opinions. I cannot see any reason to include mention of their episode in this article. Schazjmd (talk) 22:21, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
