The self-titled debut album was finally released in 1987, and, by that time, Richie Scarlet had been replaced by Tod Howarth. Spawing the top 30 rock hit "Into The Night", that successful album was followed by the live EP 'Live +1' and later by the full length studio album 'Second Sighting' in 1988. Anton Fig had a full-time gig with the Late Night with David Letterman studio band, and he had been replaced by Jamie Oldaker on drums.
In 1989, the album 'Trouble Walkin'' was released. This album was released as a solo album by Ace Frehley because of the change to a rougher sound and music style. Still. the band behind the release was the original line-up of Frehley's Comet. At any rate, Frehley's Comet as a band was no more.
Fallen Angel
Frehley's Comet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've seen you flyin'
Sometimes I'd wish
That you would fall down
I'm tired of your act
You're not even tryin'
Any dreams of hope
Dashed all away
(I'll) Take you down, so you can see
Take you down, what you've done to me
Take you down, your wanted by all below
Oh fallen angel
Oh fallen angel
Many times alone
I've been here waiting
(And) Many times again
I could not care less
(But) You've got a hold
And deep down I'm shakin'
But I won't let you make
A fool out of me
(I'll) Take you down, so you can see
Take you down, what you've done to me
Take you down, your wanted by all below
Oh fallen angel
Oh fallen angel
In Frehley's Comet's song "Fallen Angel," the singer addresses someone he knows well, someone who has fallen from grace in his eyes. He has seen them soaring high but instead wishes for their downfall. The person is no longer trying and any hope he had for them has been lost. The singer wants to bring this person down so they can see what they have done to him. The person is highly wanted by everyone below, but the singer knows the truth and refers to them as a fallen angel. The singer has been waiting for this person many times alone, but also knows that he may not care less at times. However, this person has a hold on him, and it's causing him to tremble inside. Regardless, the singer knows not to let this person make a fool out of him.
