Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad 1992.

Def Leppard 1992

Def Leppard's classic single Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad reached Number 16 in the UK charts on this day in 1992.

The third single to be released from the Adrenalize album.

It was released on 31st August 1992 (not September as wrongly printed on past Discographies with UK singles).

It peaked at Number 16 in its third week on the chart having entered at 45 on the 12th September before going up to 34 a week later.

Three weeks were spent inside the Top 40.

This song followed on from second single 'Make Love Like A Man' which reached Number 12 in July and 'Let's Get Rocked' which had been the band's biggest UK hit to date reaching Number 2 in April.

The Shamen were at Number One on this day with their (obviously not about drugs) single 'Ebeneezer Goode'.

Def Leppard were sandwiched between Pearl Jam at 15 with 'Jeremy' and Suede at 17 with 'Metal Mickey'.
