Top 10 Best Cinderella Songs

One of the best bands to come out of the hair band era, Cinderella showed impressive talent and musicianship. Tom Keifer is a great musician who can play lead and rhythm guitars, piano, saxophone, steel guitar, and more.

This band sold a significant number of albums and received extensive airplay for their videos. They also delivered outstanding live performances.

After years of vocal trouble, lead singer Tom Keifer has never sounded better live and really stood out during their 2011 tour.

The Top Ten

Nobody's Fool - Night Songs

Was a great breakout song for them. I was a junior in high school when I heard it. Great song, great memories.

Rockin' song that's full of emotion and power. One of my personal top 10 songs of all time. Simply rock and roll at its best.

Favorite song by this band. The best live version I have found was from the Moscow Peace Festival in '89.
Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone) - Long Cold Winter

I never listened to Cinderella until now. I've always been a Brian Johnson AC/DC fan, and when I came across this song, it sounded like a melodic version of Brian Johnson. I have to say that this band is very talented. Tom Keifer's voice in this song is unbelievable, but what's even more impressive is his non-falsetto voice. It's similar to Bon Jovi.
As a singer myself for over 25 years, I can really appreciate what Tom Keifer has overcome. He's smart to take on country music because Heartbreak Station gave us a glimpse. I never thought I'd say this, but this band and this particular song are both great. Good luck, Tom.

I listened to this song a long time ago. I liked it then, but I love it now. To me, it is one of the best songs ever written by anybody, before or since. It has a lot of power in its arrangements and lyrics.
Brilliantly performed and featuring a voice that can't be duplicated by anyone, Tom Keifer is in a class that other singers could only wish for.
Coming Home - Long Cold Winter

This is a great song. It is so well written and features the range of Tom Keifer's voice. Awesome melody and all-around musicianship. Love it!

A straightforward rocker with excellent guitar, vocals, and songwriting.

Simply a great rock song, regardless of when it was released. Back to basics.
Heartbreak Station - Heartbreak Station

This was a song I was learning on acoustic guitar to sing to my girlfriend as a surprise. We were both big rock fans of the 80s, with Cinderella being one of our favorites.
We had made plans to see Tom and his band at Buster's in Lexington, KY, on his solo tour. She found out she had terminal cancer, and I lost her less than five months later. I didn't get the song down completely before then, but she loved it anyway.
I will never listen to this again without a smile and great thoughts of a great girl!

As a teenager, I grew up with the powerful tunes from Cinderella. On one hand, they could rock the room, and on the other hand, they could sing songs that touched the heart. Thank you, Cinderella, for being a part of my life.

Shelter Me - Heartbreak Station

This song (actually titled "Shelter Me") should be #2. I think if it were released today, it would be a huge hit. This song and "Don't Know What You Got" got me listening to Cinderella/Tom Keifer for the first time just this past month.
It reminds me of a cross between The Black Crowes, Rolling Stones, and Guns n' Roses. I'm really impressed that Cinderella took a risk with the saxophone in this song. It's perfect and an example of why Cinderella shouldn't be lumped in with average hair bands.
I'm a big metal fan but also listen to R&B. Tom Keifer's amazing vocals in this song, fronting a catchy rock/blues/metal rhythm, make this one of the most unique songs I've ever heard.
Gypsy Road - Long Cold Winter

Just plain rocks!
By the way, where is the Janis Joplin cover of Move Over from Make a Difference Foundation - Stairway to Heaven/Highway to Hell?

Saw Devil City Angels perform this live. Awesome! Anyone reading this, you gotta check out Devil City Angels.

Kick-ass song, awesome riff. No doubt, the greatest Cinderella song.
Shake Me - Night Songs

This song needs to be in the top ten. This song was the first Cinderella song I listened to, and I love it! I heard it on the House of Hair, great show.

Shake Me should be in the top 5. This was the first Cinderella song I've ever heard. The music video is kick-ass, and seeing it live is even better.

First song, best song. The energy is unmatched. Rockers first, then ballads!
Somebody Save Me - Night Songs

Great song, very catchy, with a great hook and lyrics that everyone can relate to!

Not bad for a band from Philly.
Bad Seamstress Blues / Fallin Apart at the Seams - Long Cold Winter

Great bluesy start, and then this song heats up into a smoking rocker!

I absolutely love this song! The transition from the bluesy start into a rock banger is flawless.

Simply put, one of the five best rock songs of all time!

LOVE this song. Like all good songs, you know it's coming when the first few notes are played.

From the slow build in the beginning, this song is a classic!
Push, Push - Night Songs

One of those songs that sticks in your head. Very catchy, fun, and it rocks!
Through the Rain - Still Climbing

Such an overlooked song in their catalog. It is absolutely a beautiful song.
Hard to Find the Words - Still Climbing
Nothin' for Nothin' - Night Songs

Very catchy, full of attitude, straight-out rocker.

Probably my favorite. It's stood the test of time.
Take Me Back - Long Cold Winter

With a lyric like "I was raised by my daddy's hand, my mama taught me how to pray," this one sticks in your head as a rocker that came from the heart!
The Last Mile

This is a great song. It's one of the greats by Cinderella.
Bad Attitude Shuffle - Still Climbing
Hot and Bothered - Still Climbing

Originally from the Wayne's World soundtrack. Last song with Fred Coury, I think.
Hell On Wheels - Night Songs
Winds of Change - Heartbreak Station
Talk is Cheap - Still Climbing

My favorite song off a very underrated album. You can feel the anger in this song, and the lyrics are biting.
Long Cold Winter - Long Cold Winter

Excellent song, really shows Tom Keifer's blues influence. But it's more than just a blues song. What goes on behind it is incredible and hard to describe. So full of emotion. And Tom's voice is amazing. So good I couldn't stop shaking. Listen to understand.
Second Wind - Long Cold Winter
