    Before even knowing his name at age 13 I fell for his smile.Finding out he was front man Bret Michaels of Poison. Needless to say I never thought he could get better looking with age..Wow was I ever wrong. hide show

    I loved the first album...to the last, and all his solo projects in between. They matured and changed with the times. Bret Michaels had done solo albums,tours,directed and written movies, acted, was a judge on Nashville Star. He is the father of two daughters, and he is also a diabetic. To which he contributes alot to the Juvenile Diabetes fund. He is an amazing man, looks wise, personality, intelligence,talent as a singer, song writer, actor and whatever year I saw him in concert, you just can see how loves to be on stage.He appreciates where he is in life and where his talent has brought him--As much as his fans have. If there is one influence of my life, or one person who stood out from the rest..Id have to say Bret Michaels. To say he is my obsession in life..is to minimize the impact he has and had on me through my teenage years..and even now. His eyes and smile alone is just amazing.

    Bret Michaels is the Best. hide show

    He has one of the best hearts known to mankind, not only as an accomplished muscian but in life in general. He is probably the most orginal soul in all creation. He has a lot of values equal to Elvis, that are not as noticed to the general public. He has honesty, charisma, charm, sex appeal, and a whole lot more that I believe has not been seen the way it could. All you have to do is look in his eyes to know that he has depth and character. I really believe there is a great actor in there, and as far as directing, he could be his own Steven Speilsberg. Sometimes the world doesn't always see what they should, when they should.

    I just recently saw Bret in concert with Poison. He does not dissappoint. He had a 104 temp and battling the flu at the Concord performance. Still, he did not miss a beat. My hats off to this man. He showed so much dedication and heart it is no wonder why I want the world to know "Bret Michaels Is My Elvis!!"

    What More Needs To Be Say But Its Bret Michaels hide show

    Bret Michaels has always been a great frount man for the 80s rock band Poison but he is also a great solo artist! Hes first solo album "Songs Of Life" has always been a great cd with songs like "Raine", "Forgivness", "Times Like These", "Songs Of Life", Menace To Society", "Bittersweet", and my all time fav "One More Day"(yall gotta listin to that one). Now he has a new cd called "Freedom Of Sound which is the best cd so far this year in my opinion. Rock on Bret!
