Guess what? The super awesome song called Forbidden Beat was totally written by the incredible duo Brett and Greg. And get this, Brett himself revealed that the first verse of the song is actually about his own wild journey with drugs. Can you believe it? Brett described Forbidden Beat as an anti-drug anthem that explores the temptation of messing with your mind. How cool is that? Don’t just take my word for it, check out Flipside #59 (Spring 1989) and the Roger Vulture interview with Brett (1996) for more juicy details.
