In the colorful tapestry of rock 'n' roll history, few tales are as gripping as that of Nikki Sixx's near-death experience. On December 23, 1987, the bassist of Mötley Crüe found himself at the brink of oblivion in Hollywood, the aftermath of a night that blurred the lines between excess and self-destruction. It was a heroin overdose that left Sixx unconscious and teetering on the edge of mortality.

According to Nikki, Sixx's life was saved by the timely intervention of paramedics who administered adrenaline, pulling him back from the abyss. But the road to recovery was long and arduous. Sixx spent days in the hospital, grappling with the physical and emotional aftermath of his brush with death. His journey to redemption was marked by moments of doubt and despair, but ultimately, he emerged from the shadows with a renewed sense of purpose.

The experience of staring death in the face left an indelible mark on Sixx's psyche, shaping the trajectory of his life and art. It was this profound encounter with mortality that inspired the writing of one of Mötley Crüe's most iconic songs: "Kickstart My Heart.", the song served as a visceral expression of Sixx's near-death experience, channeling the adrenaline rush of cheating death into an anthemic ode to resilience and redemption
