Eventually reaching Platinum status in the US and charting on the Billboard 200, the album was ranked #22 on Rolling Stone’s “The 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time.”
Too Fast For Love’s was the first of seven consecutive studio albums to be certified Gold or Platinum for Mötley Crüe in the United States. The band paid homage to The Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers album cover with their debut album’s cover. Their single “Live Wire” debuted in 1982 and peaked at #24 on Billboard’s Hot Rock and Alternative Songs chart, with the video premiering in 1983.
