There are 9 tracks here, not one!,
By Brad (CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Midnight Madness (Audio CD)
I love the song "Sister Christian", as did millions of others in the day. It is a fantastic, defining power ballad that was Night Ranger's biggest hit. HOWEVER, Night Ranger has numerous other songs that are equally as good and better--including on this album!"(You Can Still) Rock In America" is a fantastic, patriotic hard-rocker that leads off the album. If this song doesn't get you pumped up, then check your pulse; you may be dead. "Rumors In The Air" also absolutely rocks. After that famous aforementioned hit ballad, "Touch Of Madness" is a different-sounding track that is truly a great hard rocker--offsetting the previous track nicely. "Passion Play" and "When You Close Your Eyes" are both great anthems, the latter which was a top 20 hit. "Let Him Run" is a very underrated and nice ballad to close the album--more accoustic than the rest of the album, which is generally hard-rocking. Every track on this album, in my mind, is an absolute winner. Every melodic hard rock fan should have this album in their collection. While Night Ranger has had several great albums, this album is clearly the defining moment for one of the most enjoyable bands of the past 20 years. Strongly recommended--from the first through last tracks.

Showcasing Expertise,
By susumu-5 (Japan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Midnight Madness (Audio CD)
Midnight Madness one of my all time favorite albums was released in 1983 amid the metal fury which dominated the music scene. Night Ranger made the album which was pure form of melodic rock when melodic rock giants such as Survivor, and Journey struggled to creat one. Night Ranger is made up of top quality musicians in any fields. Particularly I like Alan Fitzerald's excellent command of keyboard and excellent playing by twin guitarists Jeff Watson and Brad Gillis. Vocalists are super as well, featuring Jack Blades and Kelly Keagy which are both the finest vocals. You already know You Can Still Rock In America it is strikingly one of their best songs so far. And great follow up for their debut and masterpiece album Dawn Patrol. Ironically it is a ballad Sister Christian which made them the top American band and made the album double platinum. To me Sister Christian was a swan song for heavy metal era and Night Ranger was led into more Journey or Survivor like mainstream pop rock. But what was good about them is even in ballad hits they did so well. Other than hit tracks I like When Love Have To Change and Passion Play and the last nice ballad Let Him Run(one of the best non-hit tracks). Now they are facing difficulties due to demise in melodic rock itself but I am sure they will be back with a new studio album when we will it!

Night Ranger Make It Two For Two!!,
By Michael Gerstbrein "Extreme Music And Movie Buff" (Iowa City, IA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Midnight Madness (Audio CD)
Following fast on the heels of their splendid debut "Dawn Patrol," the boys in Night Ranger clock in with another great pop-metal masterpiece. They haven't strayed too far from the formula they perfected on that first CD, but that's a GOOD thing in this case. If anything, "Midnight Madness" rocks even harder than "Dawn Patrol," with the flag-waving lead-off "You Can Still Rock In America," the stormy "Why Does Love Have To Change," and the pulsating "Rumors In The Air" leading the pack and of course, the indelibly classic "Sister Christian," a power ballad to end ALL power ballads. Then feast on the wistful nostalgia of "When You Close Your Eyes," the steamy rock of "Passion Play" and finish it off with the delicate acoustic-folk balladry of "Let Him Run." There's honestly not a weak track on the whole CD and I think it's one of the most perfectly paced collections by any 80s metal group out there.Combined with "Dawn Patrol," Night Ranger haver created back-to-back classics that stand the test of time!
