Wikipedia article"'Make Love Like a Man'" is a 1992 single by English hard rock band Def Leppard from their multi-platinum album 'Adrenalize'. The song reached No. 3 on the Album Rock Tracks chart and No. 36 on the 'Billboard' Hot 100 chart in the United States.[ Def leppard's Billboard history] BackgroundIn a Joe Elliott statement on the 'Vault' compilation album, he stated that this song was not about Def Leppard trying to be "MACHO", and were just trying to be funny about the content of this song. The statement only appears on the UK version of 'Vault', as the track is not included on the American version. Elliott made a similar note in the album booklet for the later 'Best Of' compilation, joking that "everyone thought we were turning into Manowar" and explaining that the band had come to terms with the then-recent death of guitarist Steve Clark on the album track "White Lightning" and wanted to have a lighter song on the album. Elliott once said that he would rather not play this song live any more as the lyrics "were a nod too stupid". Despite this, the song still featured occasionally as the first song of the encore during the 2018 Hysteria Tour. VideoThe video was the first to feature Vivian Campbell, who had joined the band when the album was released so he does not appear on the recording.
