Def Leppard's Spotify Singles session was released on this day in 2018 on the streaming service featuring two songs.

The 'Spotify Singles' session was released on Spotify on 18th July 2018 with two songs included.

A cover of the 1989 Depeche Mode classic 'Personal Jesus' and 'Hysteria'.

'Personal Jesus' was initially played during the pre-show PA music as the 30 minute countdown clock ended on the 2018 tour with Journey and then throughout the year.

The new show intro had been premiered at the start of the tour in Hartford, CT on 21st May 2018.

The cover version and 'Hysteria' had been recorded on 16th May at Spotify's studios in New York after a few days of rehearsal at S.I.R. Studios in the same city.

This release coincided with the 40th anniversary of Def Leppard's first public live concert in 1978 at Westfield School in Sheffield.

Joe commented on the session soon afterwards in an interview with Eddie Trunk on SiriusXM radio.
