Finnish rock and glam punk band Hanoi Rocks covered "Up Around the Bend" on their fourth studio album Two Steps from the Move. The song was also released as a single. The song was an early favorite of the band's rhythm guitarist Nasty Suicide, who was listening to the song on the band's German-tour. The label noticed that the album was missing a potential international hit, so they chose the band to cover "Up Around The Bend". The CBS single-release also featured a press-on tattoo of the band's rose-logo, which the band's singer, Michael Monroe has tattooed on his right shoulder. Besides the title-track and "Don't You Ever Leave Me", the songs featured on the singles are all taken from Hanoi Rocks' 1984 live album All Those Wasted Years.

Famous quotes containing the words rocks and/or version:

    If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger. I should not seem a part of it.... My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath—a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Heathcliff—he’s always, always in my mind—not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself—but as my own being.
    Emily Brontë (1818–1848)

    It is never the thing but the version of the thing:
    The fragrance of the woman not her self,
    Her self in her manner not the solid block,
    The day in its color not perpending time,
    Time in its weather, our most sovereign lord,
    The weather in words and words in sounds of sound.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
