In 1985, Schermick and Destra left Cinderella to join Britny Fox (another Pennsylvania-based hard rock band). They were replaced by guitarist Jeff LaBar and drummer Jim Drnec. It was this lineup that recorded their first album, 'Night Songs' (although the drums were played by session drummer Jody Cortez).
Shortly after the recording, Drnec was replaced by (former London drummer) Fred Coury, who joined in time to be included as the drummer of record in the album's liner notes. The album, released in August 1986 went on to become triple Platinum, selling 50,000 copies per week at one point.
During the Night Songs tour, Cinderella were exposed to a very large audience opening for Bon Jovi (on their tour for Slippery When Wet) and David Lee Roth (on tour for support his Eat 'Em and Smile album).
Cinderella's second album, 'Long Cold Winter', was released in 1988. The 254-show tour to support it lasted over 14 months and included dates on the Moscow Music Peace Festival along side other glam metal heavyweights such as Ozzy Osbourne, The Scorpions, Mötley Crüe, Bon Jovi, and Skid Row. A highlight of the tour's stage show featured Keifer being lowered to the stage while playing a white piano during their radio hit Don't Know What You Got 'Til It's Gone.
Their third album, 'Heartbreak Station' was released in 1990 and featured songs much more heavily influenced by Keifer's love of the blues. Following the accompanying tour, Fred Coury left the band and joined former Ratt vocalist Stephen Pearcy in a band called Arcade.
Additionally, Keifer began experiencing problems with his voice after the tour and underwent several operations. This added to delays in recording of their fourth album. In 1994, they finally released 'Still Climbing', but with little support from their label and none from MTV. The album quickly disappeared from the charts.
Cinderella reunited in 1997 and toured the United States in the following year. That same year, Mercury Records released a greatest hits compilation titled Once Upon a.... In 1999, Live at the Key Club was releasd through Cleopatra records. Around this time they were signed by John Kalodner to Portrait/(Sony) Records. Unfortunately, they were dropped by the label before a new album could be released. They toured again in 2000 and 2002.
In 2005 Mercury Records released the compilation 'Rocked, Wired & Bluesed: The Greatest Hits' on CD and DVD.
In the Summer 2006, CInderella toured with fellow glam metal rockers Poison to celebrate the 20th anniversary of both bands' first albums. "Night Songs" and "Look What The Cat Dragged In" were both released in 1986. The tour is a rousing success and has swiftly become one of the most successful tours of 2006, averaging about 20 thousand people in attendance per night.
On July 14th 2021, guitarist Jeff LaBar was found dead by his wife after being MIA for days. He was only
58 years old.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Looking for sympathy
You just keep on walkin'
Actin' like you don't know me
Ain't nothin' new for you
Honey what you put me through
Seven years ago today
There ain't no other way
Once bitten now two cents shy
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
But your love
Your love's gone bad
Yea, yea, yea
Your love
Your love's gone bad
If I hear you talkin'
Gettin' in my ear
Listen to the words I say
Let me make this very clear
Don't ask for money
Don't you think my name
Everything was sunny
Dream about it ain't the same
Once bitten now two cents shy
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
But your love
Your love's gone bad
Yea, yea, yea
Your love
Your love's gone bad
Once bitten now two cents shy
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
But your love
Your love's gone bad
Yea, yea, yea

Yea, yea, yea

The song "Love Gone Bad" by Cinderella is a classic rock song about a relationship that has turned sour. The lyrics describe the singer's frustration with their ex-partner who keeps trying to come back into their life, even after causing them pain and heartache. The first verse sets the tone for the song, with the singer warning their ex to keep their distance and not try to manipulate them for sympathy or money. Despite this, the ex continues to pester the singer, who is uninterested in rekindling their relationship.
The chorus of the song, "Your love's gone bad," is a powerful statement that encapsulates the entire premise of the song. It suggests that the love between the singer and their ex-partner was once good, but has since deteriorated due to the ex's actions. The second verse reinforces this idea, with the singer reminiscing about happier times while acknowledging that things are now very different. The song ends with a final warning to the ex to stay away, highlighting the resentment and bitterness that have built up over time.
Overall, "Love Gone Bad" is a song about the pain of a broken relationship and the frustration of dealing with someone who won't let go. It's a powerful rock song that captures the raw emotions of a difficult situation.

If I hear you stalkin'
If I catch you lurking and spying,
Looking for sympathy
In search of pity and attention,
You just keep on walkin'
You should just continue moving on,
Actin' like you don't know me
Feigning ignorance of my identity,
Ain't nothin' new for you
This is something you have always done,
Honey what you put me through
Sweetheart, the trauma you made me experience,
Seven years ago today
Exactly seven years since the fateful day,
There ain't no other way
There is no different perspective or solution,
Once bitten now two cents shy
After getting hurt before, now extra cautious,
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
Nearly the favorite of your father,
But your love
However, your affection,
Your love's gone bad
Has turned sour and unfortunate,
If I hear you talkin'
If I hear you gossiping,
Gettin' in my ear
Whispering things to me,
Listen to the words I say
Pay attention to what I am telling you,
Let me make this very clear
Allow me to clarify once and for all,
Don't ask for money
Do not request financial assistance,
Don't you think my name
Don't even dare to mention my name,
Everything was sunny
Everything was perfect and optimistic,
Dream about it ain't the same
Now the idea of it is not as appealing,
Your love's gone bad
Your love has become unpleasant,
Once bitten now two cents shy
Once wounded, now more guarded,
Almost the apple of your daddy's eye
Still second-favorite to your father,
Your love's gone bad
Your love has gone awry,
Your love's gone bad
Your love has turned sour,
So bad
Extremely unfortunate and unpleasant

on Bato sa buhangin
Kapag ang puso'y natutong magmahal
Bawat tibok ay may kulay at buhay
Ngunit kung ang pagsuyo'y lilipas din
Bagay kaya ang bato sa buhangin
Kay hirap unawain
Bawat damdamin
Pangakong magmahal hanggang libing
Sa langit may tagpuan din
At doon hihintayin
Itong bato sa buhangin
Ngunit kung ang pagsuyo'y lilipas din
Bagay kaya ang bato sa buhangin
Kay hirap unawain
Bawat damdamin
Pangakong magmahal hanggang libing
Sa langit may tagpuan din
At doon hihintayin
Itong bato sa buhangin
Bato sa buhangin
Oh ah
