You can listen here but id recomend getting a decnet sound version. I think it was only on the USA version of LH so may not be availble in Canada.

It was available on the US Target Exclusive version of Lost Highway as a bonus track, along with a live version of I Love This Town. I absolutely LOVE this song, and the line "as tears came to my eyes" gets me every time. Something about that melody line Jon's singing over top of the solo.

Thanks to everyone for the informative responses and links. Great song too; some of their best ever, lyrically, and one of the best post-Crossroad musically (still pales in comparison to pre Crossroad, musically, though).

I've always thought Walk Like A Man was just ok, not amazing like alot of people here think. Certainly an improvement on many recent tracks. But I'm glad the UK got Lonely as a bonus track. I prefer it way more than WLAM. Very These Days/Destination Anywhere IMO.

Nah, prefer Walk Like A Man to Lonely- which is musically dull and lacks originality lyrically- neither of which WLAM do.

This is a great song. I love it. They were stupid to leave it off the cd. I think of Richie every time I hear it. Eileen

I'm totally with you there. I adore 'Lonely', i love the melody on the whole 'When love is blind...' parts. Fantastic emotional song.

'Walk Like A Man', in my opinion, is rubbish. I just don't get it. I hate the title, i don't like the solo, and the chorus is crap too. What is it about this track that everyone creams over?

(this is all just my opinion btw, before i get shot down bigtime!)
