Its a crime she didnt make it in the States. She should have been a massive star

One of the most underrated artists of the mid-late 90's. She was soooo much better than alot of the rest of the "chick" artists out at the time.....She was the real deal...

This is the Sass song that should have blown up. Stupid Canadian radio in '94. This album still rocks!!

I'm STILL rockin' SASS JORDAN IN 2022! TIME DOESN'T CHANGE TALENT!

When this hit the radio as a young adult I bought the CD immediately. Whole album is heavy with vocals and hard rock. Can still put my hands on it right now

I just came across Sass from a Tok video. I can't believe I never heard of her till now. She is friggin awesome,!!

Gotta love Sassy J. !!!!!!!!

Sass Jordon, she's ROCK'S man, you know what i mean if anyone of you's seen her back in the day:-) late 80's & 90's she was AWESOME to see live.. I've seen her 5 times.. Twice @ Lu Lu's in Kitchener, Ont. & Clud 54 in Thorold, Ont. & twice in Toronto... Sass Kick Ass!!! A Must See!! if you ever get a chance.. Dennis:-)

Hail yeah, thanks for the therapy.

Sass Jordan is one of my favorite female vocalists and a treasure from my native Canada from her stunning 80s synth pop debut tell somebody to this in my opinion her best album the badass 1994 rats just an amazing talent

Wow!!! This is so Awsome

A song with lots of Black Crows nuances. .

i made many mixed tapes when i was younger and that song was on each of them!

She said what so many women wanted to say.!

This was killer in 1993 when I first bought it Still killer now

I just served Sass and her band at the restaurant I work at, and man. She's talented, down to earth. We had a couple of drinks after my shift ended. A definite highlight and, oh my god, she's so fucking cool its insane!!!

Listen to this woman sing....thats a real singer and a real woman.

Incredible powerhouse vocals on this great Funky Hard Rock song

Damn. Now that voice is the real deal. And that greasy groove.

Sass and Stevie Salas - doesn't get much grittier and better than this!

Man been listening to this tune for ......I guess 25 years??? ( Can't remember exactly when it came out) this tune is comparable to anything from the great rockers, maybe I should say rephrase this song is possibly the one that elevated her and her band to the catagory of great rockers. Great guitar work.... just awesome, pounding drums solid thumping bass. And that voice, the effortless driving force. Sass if you a reading this, I still think your are awesome. Saw you for the first time at NAIT back in 1991.

I remember leaving for working at 5 am 93 or 94 popping this CD into the player, sipping coffee and jamming to Sass on my 40 minute ride to work every morning. Great ride.

Fan since early 90 `s And Sass is just fire and steel. Great artist who should have been more popular. I`m happy that i found her for many many years ago. I `m never get tired this music.

just saw her in ottawa casino the joint wow what a voice still love her so much top 5 best female canadian artist thanks SASS come back soon xo

GAWD DAMN

If this had been vinyl I would’ve worn the grooves out of it. One of my most-played CD’s of the 90’s.

I love Sass Jordan. I got "Rats" when it came out in 1993.. This is beyond. Her voice, - The music. --- Can you be a little less cute? "How could you not bang your head to this?"

Definately one if my top fav female singers, this lady can tear a hole in a rock and blues song🤘🤘🤘

great song

Simply put, it kicks ass - all the way around!

Sass and Salas made a great combo. Great album!

a true icon

Man this album kicks so much ass!! ✌✌

Pure talent, not a junkie or over sexualized pop star. Amazing voice, she is grossly under rated.

Oh my gawd she was amazing in her prime

Always loved her voice...

I hate when there's fantastic singers like her, and they don't get the airplay. Like The Angels from Australia. :(

Loved her in '92..... And I still love 💕💕 her in 2021! 😘

2023 checking in

I love love her voice don't hear that kind these days.

Such an incredible song

Saw her @ The Sting in CT. She was so sick but killed it, every song!!!❤️

One of my favorite women rockers of the early 90's & she still sings like this ..she's aged like a fine wine ...luv ya Sass XO 'keep rockin' !!

Gawd Damn funkin Hell

What a fabulous number this is and she is great!

I've just discovered Sass Jordan and I am BLOWN AWAY at how great she is. I'm a 70s dude and this brings back all the best from that era. Quality all around, and kick ass too! It's a shame how American media ignores quality like this from Canada.... same thing for Jann Arden, Amanda Marshall, etc. I only stumbled on them all by sheer luck.

This was a really great album. I think by this time Sass' drug use had escalated. She wasn't the same as the Racine tour cycle. Saw her on this tour with Taylor Hawkins on drums. She deserved to be huge.

Easy ! Huh Where's this Road? Lol Sass Rocks. Oh Ya!

Got a pocket full of power Got a handle on control Take a better man than you babe Rectify the damage to my soul Cause you took me down so easy Got the devil in your veins I may remember what was good But I won't forget the pain No I won't forget the pain Take the high road easy When your steel begin to rust Take the high road easy And your bones will turn to dust Well this morning it was sunshine But my head was in the clouds Cause the minute that I hit the street Saw your face in every crowd With the humble scraps you feed me Got addicted to the game And even though the face will fade I won't forget the name No I won't forget the name Take the high road easy When your face begin to crack Take the high road easy Cause you won't be coming back Time will tell if you're destined to fall Gotta throw that shit away You don't want more No you just want it all Well it might be better babe You know the devil devil gotta get paid

I'm her because of yoyoka and I love this song.

She got some airplay but Rock Radio from 1992-1995 in the US was in a state of flux. AOR Radio which gave birth to all of the bands now on Classic Rock radio was dying out and Alternative Rock & Grunge was taking over. She was too "classic rock" sounding for Alternative format stations to play and too new for Classic Rock stations to play and there were only a few classic AOR stations left that played everything...So she got lost in the shuffle.
