The album opens in glorious style with the title track Defiance, as hard-rocking as anything Ian has recorded for many years. The song is about Hunter doing things his way and not giving in to current trends, noting "Got an 'F' for squanderin' those golden years". Now that's defiance! The picture is of an ordinary kid who is defiant and has lived a long life doing the same. The song features Slash from Guns N' Roses who had played with Hunter Ronson at the Hollywood Palace on 13 November 1989. They played White Light/White Heat and proved to be an awakening for Hunter. He and Ronson wanted to rock as hard as newer players such as Slash.
