Stone Cold (Jimmy Barnes song)


"Stone Cold" is a song by Australian rock musician, Jimmy Barnes. It was released in May 1993 as the third single from Barnes' sixth studio album, Heat.

Details

The song, written by Cold Chisel songwriter and keyboardist Don Walker, was the first time that Barnes had collaborated with former members of Cold Chisel since the band's demise.
Barnes said, "When Ian Moss played guitar on it in the studio, it was all so Chisel-esque that it made the hairs stand up on the back of our necks when we played it back. You tend to forget how great a songwriter Don Walker is until you sing his songs."
Don Walker had been the main songwriter in Cold Chisel, and Barnes had requested his contribution. Barnes said, "Now, let me clarify that it wasn't exactly the first time. I had asked Don for help in the past but he hadn't responded."

''30:30 Hindsight'' version

Barnes re-recorded the song in a harder, blues rock style with American guitarist Joe Bonamassa for Barnes' 2014 album 30:30 Hindsight.
