Members tim gueguen Posted July 7, 2011 Members Share Posted July 7, 2011 If the vid was such a disaster for his career why was "Rock Me Tonight" his biggest hit? The more likely explaination is that nothing Squier wrote afterwards appealed to listeners as much. It's a rare artist who has a long period of hit making.
