"Tell Me" features a music video and together along with "Wait" and "When the Children Cry" made Pride a massive success.
Mike Tramp has said,
"It just proves that the album is timeless. Those songs will live on forever."[3]
"Tell Me" is a snapshot of the late 1980s sound. The production had that "stadium" sound with a lot of echo which featured in the video.[4]
The song along with the rest of Pride was featured on White Lion's 2020 compilation album, "'All You Need Is Rock 'N' Roll - The Complete Albums 1985-1991'".[5]
