In the day I stumbled upon them (I think Columbia House) I was all over this shit. I always look for the underdogs. They put the most effort into their craft. (just like sports, I would rather watch AAA than professional. There is heart put into the craft.) They always disappear to my despair and if not, when they become popular I quit listening. This band was in my regular rotation on cassette along with Poison, Motley Crue, ACDC, Bruce Dickenson and the such. (those are classics [with professional producers] so will always be remembered) I just hope D.A.D is still getting revenue from this and not Warner fucking them over... other wise Jihad! I am getting mad! I would classify that as obscure or underrated. On a side note, around the same time was a band called Tuff-N-Nuff. I can not find any record for the life of me. If anyone can help I would appreciate it. Also, a Japanese metal band with "X" in the title, but it is not the one you find on Google. I listened to it in the 89-91 range. All help would be thankful.

2024 here 2. Still enjoying this fantastic song. As said. Never gets old.

In 1993 I was working for the UN protection forces in Balkans, we lived high up in a camp in the mountains between Macedonia and Serbia... No Fuel Left For The Pilgrims was one of the albums that was played over and over and over again. I still love D-A-D and their music always brings back good memories.

I heard this when I woke up in 1968. Then again in 1989. I still hear it today.

Hard to find as good rock and roll song than this

I was rocking this CD in '89 while stationed in southern Italy. Purchased it at the NATO base in Naples on a trip up there. I can still sing along to it after all these years. Great songs stick with you and never get old!!!

My childhood playing this on cassette player & riding the skateboard half pipe I built in dad's back yard !👍😊

I was 18 in 89 and saw the cassette tape in the music store. I bought it because I loved the cover, went home not knowing what to expect and, boom!, I was hooked forever! D-A-D became one of my favourite bands instantly, and Sleeping my day away is one of my five fave songs from anyone, anytime. Here in Argentine they are all but unknown, but I keep spreading the word!

I did the same with an album from Montrose, had a shark fin moving in a yard with grass. I never played the album for years, and when I did put it on a turntable, it blew me away. Montrose 2 I think the album was called. I liked the art so well, I never thought about playing the album. I collected a lot of albums, but had none from D-A-D. I liked the song when I heard it, but I never bought an album that only had one good song. I will now listen to the full album if KZread has it. I always thought the title of this song was Sleeping My Head Away, but now understand it was my day.

I've heard this song 100's of times on the radio but never knew the name of the band. I've been going crazy trying to find this song. Found it today, finally!

Thanks for sharing. I haven't seen this since the end of 1989.

my best moments of living in Denmark for 17yrs.. the birth of my Daughter and getting to see these guys live,

Back in the day, first heard this on WSOU, a little rock radio station outta NJ. 1989, visiting Denmark from NYC, 17 year old me, thrilled to hear this blasting at Tivoli Gardens whilst flying through the air on one of the rides there.

I remember when this came out I was a teenager and the song still holds up today 30yrs later

Just saw them last night (22/11/22) in Perth, Western Australia for the first time ever. They were super tight and Jesper's vocals were on point. 👌 It has been over 20 years since they played in Perth! 😳 Great band, really entertaining and I would love to see them again.

Another underrated phenomenal band that never got the credit or attention they deserve. Like Dirty Looks and others. I was listening to this when I was a long haired teen back in the late 80's. Still AM and they've out survived my hair. D.A.D.4EVER!!!

Saw these guys In Finland back when they were still called Disneyland After Dark... Loved them!!!
