Dont Close Your Eyes is the biggest single success for the Hagerstown, Maryland glam-rock metal band Kix, from their fourth studio album Blow My Fuse. It also stands today as their sole charting hit, making them a solid one-hit wonder who nevertheless have had a decent career. This is as soulful and meaningful a song as any hair metal band ever recorded. Not only is it an anti-suicide song with gut-wrenchingly frank lyrics, but its delivered with tonsil-blistering intensity by the roaring banshee vocals of Steve Whiteman. Seriously, try watching the video and breathing along with Steve. If you can even take a breath that deep, youre not a smoker. Contemporaries of Kix included the likes of RATT, Poison, Warrant, and Winger. The producer for Kix, Beau Hill, was also producer for three out of four of those and produced for Alice Cooper. This actually explains a lot - did you ever get your 80s hair metal bands confused? Now you know why. The Rockin Apple
