      I think everyone who knows his playing knows he's great. He's just not been in the spotlight much since early 90's. In other words, I don't think under rated, but under known.

    People say "omg this band should be way more famous" for literally every fucking band they listen to - regardless of said bands actual popularity.
    In this case though, Living Colour should be way more popular. True, Cult of Personality was a hit that is still played on rock radio today - but everything else they've done is buried and forgotten. They simply aren't discussed like they should be.
    These guys are TIGHT. A great frontman, an incredibly rhythm section, a good mix of solid rock n' roll attitude and smart lyrics - it's just very solid rock music.

      What's sad is that that they put out an album recently, called Shade, and IMO it was really good and the masses probably didn't even know about it. I also liked Faith No More's recent album Sol Invictus. What's sad is that there are probably alot of people out there that don't realize that both bands are still active. A couple of years ago I saw Living Colour perform at the podunk Bike Fest in Cape Coral, FL. It was an awesome show and I believe the tickets were only $15. Cool thing was that I met the drummer.

    I love the guitar break in the middle. The tone is just great and gives the song a Caribbean feel to it. Awesome. How Reid goes from that clean kind of calypso feel to the more crunchy distorted rock sound in the chorus is just phenomenal. I was lucky enough to see them live in college.

    The glamour boys swear they are a diva
    The glamour boys have it all under control
    Always dancing and always laughing
    The glamour boys are playing the role
    The glamour boys never have no money
    The glamour boys wear the most expensive clothes
    The glamour boys are always at the party
    Where the money comes from heaven only knows
    I ain't no glamour boy - I'M FIERCE
    I ain't no glamour boy
    I ain't no glamour boy - I'M FIERCE
    I ain't no glamour boy
    The glamour boys live off their ambition
    The glamour boys have it all figured out
    A very, very dubious position
    When you got no clout
    The glamour boys whole life is a gamble
    They might get over or fall flat on their face
    But if one does, there's no need to worry
    Another G-Boy will take his place
    I ain't no glamour boy - I'M FIERCE
    The glamour boys don't think tomorrow
    The glamour boys just need tonight to play
    But just like things you can't afford on credit
    Time catches up and you have to pay
    The glamour boys are always on the guest list
    You'll always find them in the hottest spots in town
    They'll be your friend if you have fame or fortune
    If you don't they won't be hanging 'round
    I ain't no glamour boy - I'M FIERCE
