Def Leppard's new single 'Nine Lives' received it's first radio airplay last night in New Zealand. At 10pm local time (8am UK time) radio station The Rock FM played the song during the Bryce and Night show.



The first single from the band's long-awaited new studio album 'Songs From The Sparkle Lounge' is still without a firm release date. Still no news of a proper UK CD single release.

The station has an email request page via the MUSIC link.

Played again at 4pm UK time Sat 16th (5am Sunday local time). New Zealand is currently on daylight savings and is 13 hours ahead of the UK. More airplay probably during the daytime. The DJ's are mentioning the song in advance.

Stream quality is decent but not that great. Lyrics page has been ammended slightly based on hearing the song.

"feb 25 - single added to classic rock radio

a video for the song may be shot but this has not been decided yet"
