Robert Plant cut "Hurting Kind (I've Got My Eyes on You)" for Manic Nirvana, his 1990 album, and it's a band effort from the ground up: the English singer wrote it with his group, drummer and guitarist Chris Blackwell, guitarist Doug Boyle, keyboard player Phil Johnstone and bassist Charlie Jones. What they came up with is a lean, swaggering rocker that sounds like a gang having a good time.
As a single it stalled at 45 in the UK and 46 on the Hot 100, but it went all the way to number one on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart, Plant's fifth rock chart-topper. The CD single sweetened the deal with three songs left off Manic Nirvana, among them a cover of the Remains' "Don't Look Back".
