Singer Ted Poley and guitarist Andy Timmons left the band after "Screw It!" was released (and having recorded a third album which got shelved). The band brought in Paul Laine to replace Poley for 1995's "Dawn" and on.
In 2001, Laine would record vocals for the shelved album they had recorded with Poley. Fans wanted to hear both singers, so they released this album, "Cockroach" as a 2-disc set, both discs having the same songs (Laine's had a bonus track), the only difference being the vocalist.
2003 saw the return of Ted Poley to the band. Danger Danger would then release "Prime Cuts", a collection of rare tracks and demos from the 80s with Ted Poley.
Their latest release is a live album recorded during their last tour with singer Paul Laine.
They also contributed a track called "Naughty Naughty Christmas" to the "Have A Very Hairy Christmas" Compilation.
the record label has sent them back in the studio to record a new album this year 2008. Their latest album is entitled "Revolve" and was released sometime in September 2009
I Do
Danger Danger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why must it hurt us so much
Still we try givin' more than we take
But it seems like it's never enough
Promises made in the heat of the night
Oh they leave us so cold
Nowhere to when we turn out the lights
Now these days we just sleep in our bed
But I didn't forget what I've said
'Til death do us part
Always here forever is what I swore to you
For better or worse
I meant to when I said it
Every word was true, still is!
I do
Time. Feel it slipping away
Pulling us further apart
But I know if we give love a chance
We'll find the strenght in our hearts
Emotions devotion lie here from our sight
Trapped the hours of time
We'll take to the world but your still my girl
And together we'll find our way out
We bought the dream and the weapons defence
And this is the way that it ends
'Til death do us part
Always here forever is what I swore to you
For better or worse
I meant to when I said it
Every word was true, still is!
I do
We were gonna be there but we were gonna be strong
And I still believe this is where I belong
I'm holding on
'Til death do us part
Always here forever is what I swore to you
For better or worse
I meant to when I said it
Every word was true, still is!
I do
I remember when it was just you and me
Two young kids running wild, running innocent and free
Oh I wish I could turn back the hands of time
The lyrics in Danger Danger's song I Do reflect on the ups and downs of love and the vows made in marriage. The song starts with the question of whether love ever feels right, given that it can hurt us so much. The lyrics suggest that despite the pain, we continue to give more than we take in relationships, but often it feels like it's never enough. The promises made in the heat of the night can leave us feeling cold and alone. The song then talks about the passage of time and how it can pull people apart, but the lyrics suggest that if we give love a chance, we can find strength in our hearts.
The chorus of the song repeats the vows made in marriage, "Til death do us part, always here forever is what I swore to you, for better or worse, I meant it when I said it, every word was true, still is." These vows were made to weather any storm that may come, and the singer holds onto the belief that they can be strong together. The final lyrics suggest a nostalgia for the past and a desire to turn back time to when things were more innocent and carefree.
Overall, the lyrics of I Do by Danger Danger explore the complexities of relationships and the importance of commitment.
