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
One Step From Paradise
Danger Danger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Both of us reaching out for something
Hiding our feelings afraid what we'll find
Someday I know we'll find the answer
If it takes a little time, it doesn't really matter
Don't throw it all away cause we're
So close and still so far away
One Step From Paradise
Together we'll find Paradise someday
Lost in the shadows, we search for a light
Hoping the candle burns forever
The lyrics of Danger Danger's song "One Step From Paradise" convey a sense of longing and uncertainty. The first few lines establish a sense of disconnection between two people who are together but feel like strangers. They are both trying to find something meaningful but are hesitant and fearful about it. The singer in the song acknowledges that finding the answer to their questions about their relationship may take time, but it's worth the struggle. The chorus expresses the idea that they are close to paradise, but not quite there yet. Together they'll keep searching for that perfect place of happiness and fulfillment.
The lines about being lost in the shadows suggest an inability to see clearly or figure out what to do next. The hope for a lasting light implies a longing for stability and security. The singer in the song recognizes that even though they are one step away from paradise, there are still obstacles to overcome. The overarching theme of the song is the importance of perseverance in relationships, and the hope for a brighter future despite the struggles of the present.

We live like strangers playing for time
We behave like unfamiliar individuals who are delaying making decisions
Both of us reaching out for something
We both have a desire for something more in life
Hiding our feelings afraid what we'll find
We conceal our emotions in fear of what the outcome may be
Someday I know we'll find the answer
We hold onto the hope of discovering a solution eventually
If it takes a little time, it doesn't really matter
We are willing to wait no matter how long it takes
Don't throw it all away cause we're
We plead to not give up because we are so close
One Step From Paradise
We are nearly at our desired destination
So close and still so far away
Our goal is within sight, but not yet in grasp
One Step From Paradise
We constantly remind ourselves that we are almost there
Together we'll find Paradise someday
We have faith in finding our definition of perfection with the help of each other
Lost in the shadows, we search for a light
We feel directionless and are yearning for guidance
Hoping the candle burns forever
Our expectation is that what we possess will never fade or expire
