So hey, don't you hate it when you're trying to get it on with some chick and, wouldn't you know it, Michael Sweet pops up and starts rockin' out about abstinence.....
Dear God, this is like something you'd watch in Sex Ed just so it could 'relate to the young people'.

That is a great album. Never saw this video though, yet I used to own the VHS home video that followed the album....
BTW: I almost choked when I saw the title of his thread!

I remember this video from when it came out.... I like this album - it is very Bryan Adams-ish. Heck, they even used they same type of drum machine that BA used on Waking Up The Neighbors.
MTV wouldn't play it and Michael Sweet complained that it was because of the message. I remember MTV releasing a statement that they wouldn;t play it because the song sucked.
Of course, that doesn't explain all the other crap MTV plays.........

Message aside, those are probably his worst lyrics ever...

Let's face it , I like Micheal Sweet, but he's not really known for the most intellectual lyrical content. He usually does better than this, which I think is a low point in his songwriting career. I bought this CD when it first came out, but gave it away shortly after.

Actually, while I do like "Against the Law" overall, one of the songs I don't like is "Not that Kind of Guy," which I'm sure everyone knows here has the same message. Another of Micheal Sweet's low points lyrically, and musically.

"Not That Kind Of Guy" is Shakespeare compared to "Ain't No Safe Way"...

While the song has a good message in it, the lyrics do come off very corny. It is one of his weaker AOR songs no doubt.
