==Not a metal band==
{{WikiProject banner shell|blp=yes|class=c|listas=White Lion|1=
This article should be removed from any and all heavy metal categories. White Lion were a pop band with one (semi-) heavy guitar chord per song. The "metal" label was used for marketing purposes only at a time when such bands were popular. If there were a band who sounded like them today, they would not be marketed as a heavy metal band.

Real Wikipedians say "no" to posers. -- {{unsigned|A lizard|20:02, 26 April 2006}}

:Actually, real Wikipedians don't let their personal opinions skew categorization. I agree that this band isn't "heavy metal" but it is "hair metal" and was marketed as such during their height of popularity. As for the "poser" comment: please review [[WP:NPOV]]. Whether you think they're posers or not is irrelevant to this article. -- [[User:Miwasatoshi|Miwa]] * [[User talk:Miwasatoshi|talk]] * [[Special:Contributions/Miwasatoshi|contribs]] ^_^ 19:40, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

== Transformers theme song ==
didnt they do the theme song to transformers the movie? {{unsigned|88.106.175.100}}

:No, they didn't. That was a band just called "Lion" - their guitarist was [[Doug Aldrich]] and lead singer Kal Swan. They released a couple short-lived EPs, and then went on to other projects. -[[User:Dawson|Dawson]] 18:37, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

==Ironic==
The band Lion's Bass player Jerry Best and White Lion singer Mike Tramp later joined forces to create Freak of Nature. Jerry also toured with mike in the summer of 2001 in support of Mike Tramp's solo albums. I Met both Jerry and Mike at a show in Tampa i even commented to Jerry on the Irony that also I once thought it was White Lion who did the Transformers Theme song.
