Default wanted...
prob think im dumb for posting this but is the song wanted dead or alive.. some how related to the band touring alot?

seems so by lyrics like this:

"It's all the same, only the names will change"

"Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days nd the people I meet always go their separate ways"

"I've seen a million faces And I've rocked them all"

Yah, that's what the song is about. When they wrote it, they were reffering to how touring is like being a cowboy..

ie. "On a steel horse I ride"

The steel horse is an analogy for the tour bus.

No it's not. It's referring to Jon's Motorcycle.

Does Jon tour on his motorcycle? I think it means the tour bus too. Or plane these days

In the US a steel horse means a motorcycle, it's not Jon or Richie who came up with this.

I always thought it was a bus or plane, after all it makes sense. Although prior to SWW the band will have probably toured on a bus due to their financial situation, which means they would still be riding on a bus when they wrote Wanted, as SWW hadn't been released.
