She went on to release the albums, Dancin’ on the Edge, and smash album, Lita, which featured the songs “Kiss Me Deadly”, “Back to the Cave”, and the huge hit with Ozzy Osbourne, “Close My Eyes Forever”, which reached #9 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Her hiatus to raise her two songs lasted until June 2008, when she returned to the stage at Rocklahoma. She then released Wicked Wonderland in 2009.

I just wanted to kick ass! I don’t know what’s popular, or the flavor of the day. I just wanted the music to rock! The lyrics are very personal and that’s it. I wasn’t going to come out in sandals with hairy armpits!

—  Lita Ford in an interview with ExclusiveMagazine.com

In 2011 promised her “real comeback album”, and in 2012 Living Like a Runaway was released on SPV/Spinefarm Records, and the album is defintely more in line with her early work.

She received The Certified Legend Award from Guitar Player in 2014.
