Mr. Big - Addicted To That Rush Lyrics






When I was a young boy
My momma said to me
Once a woman gets your soul
You'll never shake her free
These are words of wisdom
Tt turns out she was right
Gotta find a lover-
'Cause I need a fix tonight

Once I thought her lovin'
Was a habit I could break
But when I go without it
My body starts to ache
Whoooooo [etc.] ooooo
Watch it touch me deep inside
Whoooooo
Somethin' snaps inside my mind
When I feel it comin' ain't no sense in runnin'
I'm addicted to that rush
Every time we touch
Never get enough
'Cause I'm addicted to that rush - Yeow!

Look around I stop and stare
Got to get a taste
Pretty women everywhere
We ain't got time to waste
Lookin' for a little thang
To fit into my plans
On the town I'll hurt you down
I'm walkin' like a man
[Chorus]

  11. B.... S....

    Suuuuper

  12. J.... M....

    HOLY MOLY BILLY !!!!!!!!MY GOD MAN!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!

  13. C.... S....

    Shyboy shyboy - give it to me one more time boy ;)

  14. K.... P....

    Sounds like Back Alley Driver by Rainbow

    K.... P....

    Yeah it does👍

  15. T.... F....

    Mr Big and Extreme were best hard rock bands of that very late 80's era

    T.... F....

    Good 2 c appreciation 4 these bands! Paul Gilbert, Nuno, Warren Dimartini, George Lynch, I'm fortunate 2 grow up with thm learning 2 jam! Love playng guitar n they're the reason!

    T.... F....

    I agree with you! (*'ω'*)

    T.... F....

    Ur crazy af...bands like giant,blue murder,fifth angel were way better and thats just to name a few but theres lots more...dirty looks,firehouse..and maybe even winger

    T.... F....

    Those are both really good bands, no doubt. With Mr Big, I always felt that the quality of their music did not quite match the talent of their musicianship, which is pretty high. With Extreme, I didn't think this was the case.

    T.... F....

    Technically you’re right, but I’d say it’s more like early 90’s... I think they both released their first album in 1989, but their best material in the 90’s. I agree with you, though!

  16. L.... H....

    Very good band. They can hangle their business with expertise. The vocals are very good with a good range. The story of the song is that age old story of being addicted to love, even if one or both are just passing by. Over the years, music has protrayed every single aspect of our lives. That makes it so great to relate to. We can inject ourselves in so many songs. It was like it could have been written about us. This is genius in itself!!

  17. L.... ....

    Love that ! And im 20 yo :D

  18. D.... G....

    oooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHH !!! Yes I'm addicted to this Mr.BIG Rushies !!! Always !!! Salud y Vida Pa'lante !!! Cheers and Life On !!!

  19. F.... D....

    With the late Pat Torpey...

  20. M.... V....

    92 people have no idea!

  21. G.... C....

    this is Death alley driver by Rainbow

  22. r.... ....

    Sheehan and Gilbert - this band should have been MUCH bigger.

  23. E.... M....

    headbangers ball and hard and heavy days!!!!!

  24. M.... ....

    Think you’re a good bassist? Learn this song and you’ll see how much you know.

  25. D.... B....

    I’ll never forget watching them play their first show ever, at the Omni, a small club in Oakland California. We waited nearly an hour for them to come out before it was announced that the show has been postponed for 30 days due to an illness with one of the bandmembers. Came back 30 days later, Paul had a custom made dark blue suit on with F hole patterns all over it, and we were blown away with what the band did. I’ve never been so impressed with a guitar player in person before or after that gig.

  26. J.... B....

    Once upon a time... there was music.

  27. F.... ....

    Death alley driver!!!!

  28. B.... T....

    Such an underrated band!

  29. j.... ....

    I wish I enjoyed actual sex as much as I enjoyed this song

  30. B.... S....

    1989-One of the best summers of my life. Had a summer job between 1st and 2nd year of college, dayshift in shipping at a factory, then a 3 hour job delivering parts from it in southern Ontario to Michigan. Made some good coin getting paid to drive into the sunset and first discovered Z-Rock, an AM all hard rock station when I crossed into Michigan. Got to hear all the new hard rock and metal releases 3 months before "some" of them came to Canada! Mr Big, Warrant, Skid Row, and many others a couple times a week for 3 months before they came out up here! I was in HEAVEN! And hearing Judas Priest "Ram It Down", Anthrax "Indians", Alice Cooper's "Poison" all on AM Radio- well, I thought I was dreaming! And to boot, I made enough to buy my mint '84 Monte Carlo AND, started dating a hot young lady from the factory I delivered to, on the companies dime! Up there in the top 3 of my best summers of my life! Footloose and fancy free!

    B.... S....

    Nice! I’ll never forget watching them play their first show ever, at the Omni, a small club in Oakland California. We waited nearly an hour for them to come out before it was announced that the show has been postponed for 30 days due to an illness with one of the bandmembers.

I’ve never been so impressed with a guitar player in person before or after that gig.

    B.... S....

    @David Bruce Never been to a show that was cancelled before, which would be a huge letdown, but sounds like they made up for it later!

    B.... S....

    Brian Sauer, they didn’t need to make up for it, just the fact that we got to see the first ever show from this band was phenomenal, and it was in a small club! I think it was something like a 700 capacity place

  31. C.... W....

    Can't mess with these folks.

    When I was a young boy
    My momma said to me

    Gotta find a lover-
    'Cause I need a fix tonight
    Once I thought her lovin'
    Was a habit I could break
    But when I go without it
    My body starts to ache
    Whoooooo (etc.) ooooo
    Watch it touch me deep inside
    Whoooooo
    Somethin' snaps inside my mind

    (Chorus)

  33. P.... N....

    RIP Pat ❤️

  34. D.... L....

    Absolutely one of the most undervalued band of history. They were (and still are) fucking beyond the world.

  35. v.... l....

    Damn bass..!! 😰😰😰

  36. j.... ....

    Paul Gilbert is godlike, he is my top 1 guitarist

  37. M.... T....

  38. m.... ....

    Still reminds me of Shyboy. Saw Mr Big at 86th Street Music Hall & Club Soda in Vancouver.

  39. �.... ....

    I like this song more than to be with you.

  40. A.... ....

    Billy Sheehan is Steve Harris on steroids)

  41. S.... M....

    Better than To Be With You. Who’s with me?

    S.... M....

    SpongeBob McPringle, exactly! That song isn’t who the band truly is. I’ll never forget watching them play their first show ever, at the Omni, a small club in Oakland California. We waited nearly an hour for them to come out before it was announced that the show has been postponed for 30 days due to an illness with one of the bandmembers.

    S.... M....

    i do agree always

  42. R.... b....

  52. F.... ....

    But let's be real for a Hot Minute: "ATTR" was a Van Halen-ized version of ZZ Top's "Heard It On The X"(but because of this banger,I would've had no Idea about "Heard it on The X")

  53. R.... S....

  63. F.... ....

    Every casual fan Who remembers "To Be With You"'had no fucking idea how BAD-ASS Mr Big Was!(and this song was a Rip On ZZ-Top's "Heard it On The X")

  64. I.... R....

    The 1980s were awesome for a good bit of guitar shredding !

  65. j.... f....

    This is not hair metal. This is not a good song. Don't blame the 80s they suck.

  66. M.... ....

    Охуенно!!!!!!

  67. r.... ....

    VAN HALEN paved the way but Mr.Big continued it properly! perhaps the best,instrumentally, Mr.Big song..Gilbert and Sheehan playing in this video as if tomorrow may never come..

  68. �.... ....

    なんだただの神の産声か

  69. C.... M....

  70. �.... ....

    Pat was the man! Paul and Billy knew who got their back

    Stellar Band. Sheehan and Gilbert, one of the best bass and guitar combos of all time. Top notch veteran musicianship.

  72. Z.... ....

    This is from THE DEBUT ALBUM NOT RAW LIKE SUSHI!!!!!!!

  82. E.... S....

    Awesome!!

  83. S.... A....

    I wonder how popular this band was at that time..

  84. G.... ....

    Should have got a younger bass player Sheehan always looked so much older “in a bad way”

  85. Y.... S....

    The best bass to the rock story😎

  86. a.... m....

    Still looks so modern, never gets old! 😊

  87. D.... T....

    How badass is Billy Sheehan?

  88. D.... C....

    3:03 ❤️

  93. U.... K....

    Paul gilbert has 3 middle fingers in his left hand...i wonder when he get mad ..triple f you!!!

  94. M.... ....

    Been looking for this song for ages

  95. D.... M....

    Mr Big is an unintentional supergroup

  96. B.... S....

    Wow. Eric Martin was so young back then. Mr. Big were very unique in that they had just a regular Hard Rock singer (Martin) paired-up with the absolutely insane Metal Machine of Sheehan, Gilbert, and Torpey (R.I.P.). Very unique band. Not the best one around, but they had some really good, memorable moments like this one.

  97. g.... s....

    i perfer darker heavy metal. but this is the band i always point to when ppl say that all the glam rockers were crap at playing instruments. im a metal elitist but i dont know any metal bass player. that comes even close to billy sheenan or any metal guitar player that has the technical skills this guy has. but i cant stand listening to this kind of music.

  98. C.... Q....

    Billy Sheehan.. You F*cking Psycho!! I've never seen a bass played like that! This is why you're my idol
