“In From the Outside” by Cinderella appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 1990. It was first released in 1986 on the album Night Songs. Its best result is #963 on the Z-Rock Top 1001 Songs of All-Time (1990). In the combined RockLists rankings it is #2,360 hard rock song of all time.
"In From the Outside" comes off Night Songs, the debut album Cinderella released on Mercury on June 9, 1986, and it's Tom Keifer's song through and through: he wrote it alone, words and music, sings lead, and plays both guitar and piano. Jeff LaBar is the second guitarist, Eric Brittingham plays bass, Fred Coury drums, and guest Jeff Paris adds keyboards, with Andy Johns producing and engineering.
Check the backing vocals, though: LaBar, Brittingham and Tony Mills are joined by Jon Bon Jovi, a fitting cameo for a band whose record broke big partly on the strength of an opening slot on their labelmates Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet tour. Night Songs went on to reach number 3 in the US and ship 3 million copies.
