I read some of the comments at Hardline's version of this song, originally released by Danny Spanos. It's a toast to you and your great voice, man! Enjoy the song!
Danny was my friend ! Late 1979 , I was in a band playing all the Hollywood clubs, I was the front man/ singer from Venice, I was his friend! He called me a good friend!
@@onmas909Ditto! Heard your good man’s song on an FM campus station with the sunroof open and wind blowing in Baton Rouge Louisiana in 1982. I think your bro and his band took this song exactly where it needed to be, artistically. It blew/blows me away. I found it again 30 years later when the internet came along. The music industry missed the boat on this monster opus. Crescendos (is that an adjective? it is now) so strong. It’s just a great song, and a great production. And your late buddy, lead vocalist Danny Spannos, kicked its ass.
I once won a free drink at a topless establishment when the DJ said whoever tells me who sang this song first wins. I was 10 feet away and I immediately said "Danny Spanos!" dude was shocked. it was like 1994.
+Liquidmice9 Just outta curiosity, where did you live when you first heard it? I ask because Danny always seemed to me to have pockets of fans in certain areas, rather that all over. He's from Michigan, and he did well there and in Ontario when I was in HS. He was also hot in California like Rick said, but I live in the Southern US now, and I've never found anyone who knows the song.
I know you weren't asking me, but as another data point: I heard this version, I assume when it was new, on 98Rock in Baltimore, MD. I loved it immediately.. (I can understand people coming at this from hearing Hardline first may not care for it, and I have probably come to like the Hardline version more, but this still holds up). As far as I recall, it's the only song by Spanos I ever heard. I don't remember it being a huge hit hereabouts, but I think people liked it well enough. Just my $0.02.
For those who are interested, none of Danny Spanos 3 LP albums were ever re-released on CD. Such a shame since the interest for a CD would be great. Record executives - such geniuses! DUH! This song is available only CD format on "Heard It On The Radio" Volume 2 which is a various artists compilation issued on Renaissance records.
@@jedsteelwell2354 Nah, Hardline’s not. And I like Hardline, couldn’t wait to hear their version. Bought the Hardline album in early 90’s having heard a snippet of their cut of this song on the radio. Disappointed. Far too sterile. by comparison. But what can you do to touch this Danny Spannos version? Just put it on. Turn it up. And call her just to say Hi.
Hardline USA who went under the name brunette before getting big and Streetheart Canada are the only other bands to cover this and another unknown singer, Steve Thomson.
If I had to pick just one song to be representative of the 80's "lost gem", you're listening to it. Other artists versions are okay, too, but Spanos completely nailed it with a unique sound on both instrumental and vocal work. I also feel that no other line has ever been written to surpass the core of utter romance than the lake and campfire scene so eloquently painted into this piece.
I first discovered this song very randomly. I was watching "All the Right Moves" starring Tom Cruise and saw Danny Spanos in the credits. I entered his name into youtube and found Hot Cherie. It has been one of my favourite songs for 10 years now. Spanos is the man!
I had never heard Hardline's version until just now. Sorry, but Danny Spanos did it first and best! Hardline took all of the passion out of this song; Danny Spanos sings it with intensity and desperation!
Yes, what a great song. I loved every bit of it. I had a girlfriend back in the 80's and we listen to it a lot. She automatically went all over me when it came on and you know I put it on all the time! God bless ya Danny, RIP
Nice version. Canadian band Streetheart wrote it in 1983, but their LP never got released until 1984. Spanos just got his recording released first, but he didn’t write it.
His was the first I heard, as it happened. And as it happened I was in love with a girl named Sherie at the time. Crazy. It was much later that I caugh onto the Streetheart version, but this Spanos version was the original for me, as much as I love Streetheart.
Back in the day, when i first heard "hot Cherie" on the radio, i went out to the record store the following pay day to grab the tape. I played the flavor out of that tape. Little did I know that i'd meet and work with a girl named Cherie-shoulda been my wife, but that's another story :)...... ah, good times!! Still a good song after all these years.
I love this song very much performed by Hardline, not knowing that they didn’t write it themselves. I’m a rock fan, so I guess their version is the one for me. But thank you Spanos, the song is superb 🙌
He is Giorgos Spanos. Aka George Spanos. Aka Danny Spanos. Greek drummer from US played in some groups until he released his own work. Where are you man? We miss you!
Memories,this is the version I remember as a VERY YOUNG GIRL,Hardline then came out with a great version a few years later.WOW WHAT MEMORIES SOME songs can bring
LOVE Danny's version the best you were and are the man Danny! I remember listening to this driving around the hood in Cleveland, OH in early 80's did not know who sang it till years later great song from my teen years.
Danny Spanos - a star that never quite "took off" ... I agree with another comment that the "desperation" and "yearning" in his voice is just amazing ... this guy could, and should have been a big star ... back when I was booking concerts at UF in the early 80s I remember a major agency (Premier?) was pushing him for college dates, but then suddenly he was pulled off the road ... lifestyle issues allegedly, but it's still a great song
@@josemariaricardodomingues7 Hi there! Just so you know , the original also is not Danny Spanos'. The original was written and performed by the Canadian band called " Streetheart". Its their song and Spanos and Hardline both covered it. Check it out. They were an amazing band .
THIS version is a cover as well. The Canadian band Streetheart recorded this before Spanos did. But, I'd have to say this is the definitive version, in my opinion. Whoever said this guy's voice was worse than the dude from Hardline is obviously tone deaf.
Oh yes. This is the version I remember. I never knew who sang it though and listened to Hardline's first but knew that wasn't it. Danny Spanos' is THE ONE. The FIRST and the BEST.
+Zutulem Yes, after I wrote that comment I realized it was not the original version and moreover I was confident that someone on here would call me on it, lol. But yeah thanks for the info. Still my fav though. So may not be the FIRST, but it's STILL the BEST in my book. (:o)
I love, love, love this song. It was my favorite song when I was in Junior High School. I looked for it on mp3 a few years ago and couldn't find it but now it's available for download. Great Song!!!
I knew Danny and his wife Carol. He was a premier drummer on the Hollywood circuit and remember 1983 very well in the high deserts at his house. He gave me my first real drum lessons and I gave him lyrics and friendship. Long story. RIP Danny and Carol? I hope you are well.
man! i grew up with my dad playing this song over and over. He lost his record and has bitched ever since. I am totally gonna take this and put on a cd. your a pal
Not to argue, my friend, but I recall this Danny Spanos' version being popular the sweet summer of 1983 when I turned 16......I'm pretty certain about it. At least we can agree we both have great taste in rock.
I was at a small event called The Mojave, California Gold Rush Parade in the 80's. There was a small stage in the park that was setup for the event. There were a few local musician that had spotted Danny there at the event. Some of the locals knew Danny as a kid from the Mojave Desert and pleaded with Danny to come up on stage and do this song. It was the first time that I had heard this song. Danny's voice was so spectacular and the band was equally wonderful as the evening started to get dark. I will never forget this song and that night for as long as I live. I kid you not Danny's voice was SO STRONG, SO CLEAR. I have heard that Danny went to Hollywood, California and got lost in the crowd down there. He will always be welcome to show up here in the park in Mojave, California to rock our desert any time. [[[ This man's voice is incredibly. ]]]
I keep seeing people say streetheart did this song first actually a couple members of the band wrote it gave it to Danny who recorded the song in 82 and the album was released in 83 , streetheart then released there own version of hot Cherie in 84 , then hardline covered it in 92 , as far who’s version was better the only version that ever got radio play. Where I live is Danny . So yada yada .
ok, i just played the hardline version. it was different buy no way as good as the original. no sax.....or clear cymbal hits. and danny you have a raw and sexy voice. god i love this song........... been playin it for 20 years!!! (guess my age and weight) would love to see it live........diane
Yeah, I agree!!! I remember when this first came out in 83' I think. The only recording I had of it was off the radio with tons of static and of course the tape was mangled. Thanks for posting the original. Nothing beats this version!!!
Hardline's version is just different. This is from a different musical era, with a different musical instrument emphasis. Additionally, Hardline is basically doing a cover of this song...Hardline's is modern and tight, but I prefer the vocals on this version.
danny , do you read these??? i heard this song while camping in cape may NJ about 20 years ago. it came on the radio and it was awsome. they didnt say who sang it , but i heard it again and this time they gave your name and song title. when i got back to pa., i searched until i found the tape LOL..........played it to death. two years a go i found the cd on line and was just listening to it on the way home from work today. ROCKIN UP RT 70!! love it and the second one too!!! diane
always wanted to hear the original and to be honest, i prefer the Hardline cover version. more loud guitars and less saxaphone, LOL! just makes me wonder how Neil Schon and Hardline came across this song and ultimately decided to re-record the song. then it was their 1st single-someone in that band or team was very, very smart
I used to listen to this in the 80's and LOVED it. Then I heard Harline's and wasn't that impressed with Hardline. But the more I listened to it, the more I liked it, and now I like both versions . What a GREAT song!!
Differents Performers, BRUNETTE( the Original🙏💕) Hardline, Danny...and others or no? Great prestation from all’s, is question affinity’s... and « HOT CHÉRIE »🤷♀️🎶
Hardline missed the whole point of this great song !! First of all, Danny's voice is perfect for this and that cool beat and feel just rolls along! One of the best rock songs ever ! F Hardline !
+Richie Ranno It doesn't happen often, but sometimes a Cover Artist ends up artistically owning a song someone else wrote. Sorry about that Canadian Band and credited songwriter "Streetheart," and 2002 recut artist "Hardline." Mr. Danny Spanos and his band have owned this one since they cut and released it in 83. I believe they knew where this song was trying to go. They were good enough musicians to get the hell out it's way.
I believe the song was originally written by Desmond Child, who wrote hits for many people. Including Bon Jovi and Aerosmith and is currently collaborating with Katy Perry. I played guitar on the Brunette version of Hot Cherie. (Pre - Hardline)
Danny was my friend ! Late 1979 , I was in a band playing all the Hollywood clubs, I was the front man/ singer from Venice, I was his friend! He called me a good friend!

❤ As we are in September.... the breeze from the lake is cold....campfire dies and strange tales can be told.... miss you Danny!
2022 and this song still rocks…Danny Spanos never got his just dues as an 80’s rocker..His career should have been much larger
You have to love a song with your name in it!! "Your getting me Hot Cherie!!"
- Cherie ;)
check out Hardline's version
Love it
@@billymuellerTikTok that's actually my favorite version! Gotta love hair metal!
@@TheWitchybitchy can confirm 👍
Too bad it's not about you personally, huh? Gtfoh.
.. Danny Spanos made this song his own and is is the best rendition - Hands Down
Nah hardline is better

❤somewhere a Japanese Anime Composer to note and made this apart of Bubblegum Crisis!

ditto. amazing times, amazing girlfriend, the song is a power ballad, and a time capsule.

Yes it was a rocking good time! 👍
Due to some people here saying this is original : original song Hot Cherie is written and recorded by band Streetheart.
Thank you DS.. i love this song for it gave me company when I was 14 and depressed....Im Still here and Thankful -...I CANT WAIT FOR OCTOBERRRR 💙
Cool song. I spent hours cruising and cranking the tunes. This was one of them.
Still on of my favorite songs of all time

We opened for Danny at Coast to Coast here in Baltimore County. Danny was a sweet person. However, his crew had some issues.
Nice chorus laden guitar. The sax lead break gives the song a whole new feel. Love the high energy and the vocal arrangement. Kudos, you nailed it.
A sax break in your mid tempo rock track was contractually required from about 1979 thru 1986.
man! i grew up with my dad playing this song over and over. He lost his record and has bitched ever since. I am totally gonna take this and put on a cd. your a pal
We need a CD colection of Danny's work.
saw him perform this opening up for cheap trick& aldo nova, early in 83 @ Kiel opera house, st. louis, mo.
That had to be a great night
You’re so lucky, 8 Ball!
This is a good cover of the STREETHEART(written by their singer Kenny Shields)song..

Childhood favorite. 1982 gem.
Great memories.They just opened the most happening rock club in Austin--Cardi's.This song was part of that once-in-a-lifetime scene.I remember...
Ooh, the sadness and feeling in his voice, beautiful!
This song was GREAT then and it's still GREAT now!!!!!
Damn right!
Always loved this song!
Aw man. Thanks for this. Made my day! There is no other version.
camann33 No there isnt
The best version of this song. Also the original. What can I say?
I hear this version for the first time, but i like it best. 80's forever.
I was a close friend of Danny Spanos in the 80's. Does anyone know what he's up to these days or where he is? What a beautiful man and talent he is.
Hi Kitty, you can find Danny/George on this guys' channel: he appears sometimes on there: th-cam.com/video/uC1kOg5YM7A/w-d-xo.html

Danny Spanos does a great dance version of this song. Hardline does a hard hitting arena rock version. Both good. This is the original.
No it's not. Streetheart did the original, this is another cover version.
Dang. Had no idea this was a cover by Hardline.
LOVED LOVED LOVED this version when I was a teenager!! Thanks for sharing!!
This song has been covered by many bands, but this version is the best. The 80,s were the best!
Would be hard to do this live.

Danny Spanos recorded this song with
Randy Bishop / Daryl Gutheil / Jeff Neill / Kenny Shields / Ken "Spider" Sinnaeve
according to the blog AllMusic.
We recorded and wrote this song as Streetheart . Danny covered it later
always wanted to hear the original and to be honest, i prefer the Hardline cover version.
more loud guitars and less saxaphone, LOL!
just makes me wonder how Neil Schon and Hardline came across this song and ultimately decided to re-record the song. then it
was their 1st single-someone in that band or team was very, very smart
I used to listen to this in the 80's and LOVED it. Then I heard Harline's and wasn't that impressed with Hardline. But the more I listened to it, the more I liked it, and now I like both versions . What a GREAT song!!
Both are cover versions. Canadian AOR heroes Streetheart did the original.
Thanks for putting this up here!!!!
bullshit!!!! Danny Spanos is the only version! so sick!!
Such an under rated 80's song, I NEVER hear this on 80's stations, sad.
80's Gold!
Danny's version is the best. I had a hard time finding it to download on my IPOD. i-tunes didnt have it. Found it on MP3 rocket.

Hardline sent me here.
Was in iTunes but can’t find any more

I believe the song was originally written by Desmond Child, who wrote hits for many people. Including Bon Jovi and Aerosmith and is currently collaborating with Katy Perry. I played guitar on the Brunette version of Hot Cherie. (Pre - Hardline)
Hardline's version is far superior.
hardline didn't write the song. no royalties for hardline. however nice version by hardline.
Niether did Danny Spanos to be fair. I like all versions.
Boo! Love the Spanos version so much more
I thought that at first, but now I much prefer the spanos version.
Definitely. The music on this one is weak, with those cheesy 80's keyboards. The vocals are pretty good though.
