The only change in the band's lineup was the addition of the American vocalist Michael Vescera (Loudness, Yngwie Malmsteen) in the Dr. Sin II times (2000). Vescera only remained in the band for a short time as he soon left the band to start his own solo project.
The band has released a total of 10 albums, including American/Japanese/European versions and singles. They released Listen to the Doctors, in 2005, an album that contains only covers songs with the word "Doctor" in their titles. In 2007, the band released Bravo, after almost seven years without any new songs released.

Hey You
Dr. Sin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're all alone
And feeling bad, bad to the bone
You must keep it up
No matter what they do
If you think men don't cry
You must be blind
You've been a prisoner for your whole life
You cannot even remember your name
Hey you! Don't say to me - you've never been a fool
Never cry, never lie - Have you ever been afraid to die
Hey you! Sometimes it's hard, it's hard
To face the truth - It almost always brings us pain
Have you ever felt this pain before
You shook my hand - You looked away
Are you afraid? Or maybe shy
To contemplate your own mistakes
You've been a victim of your fate
You're the only one - Who can really help yourself
The song "Hey You" by Dr. Sin is a song with a message about overcoming adversity and the importance of facing the truth. In the first verse, the singer is talking to someone who is feeling bad and alone, assuring them that it's okay to feel those emotions. The chorus, "Hey You," is a call to action, telling the person not to deny their emotions and to face the truth even if it brings pain.
The second verse is more direct, referencing the person's past as a prisoner of some sort and their struggle with self-help. The bridge asks the person if they've ever felt the pain that comes with facing the truth and directly challenges them not to be afraid to cry or lie. The final verse is a plea from the singer to the other person, acknowledging their fear and encouraging them to confront their own mistakes in order to find freedom and inner peace.
The song's message is clear: being truthful with yourself and others is hard but ultimately necessary for personal growth and healing. It's a message that resonates with many people, making "Hey You" a timeless rock classic.
