Fun fact: the song “dancing on glass” is a reference to another sixx overdose where his drug dealer tried to wake him up with a baseball bat, figured he was dead, and dumped him in a dumpster
Today I watched The Dirt. I'm surprised any of Motley Crue guys remember anything from their pasts! Was also surprised how much I remember from those days, since I was on my own destructive path.
If you've heard any of their interviews you would know from what Nikki has said they don't remember much about the first half of their career. Who cares?!
Dude....you know his name is Nikki SIXX, right? Like the number. Why do you keep calling him "Nikki Sticks"? Although if i ever get a dog who loves to play fetch.....that would be an awesome name!!😁😁😂😂
Right? I was half assed listening to this & I kept hearing him say Styx. I’m going to date myself here, but I thought “did they have some connection with the band Styx that I don’t know about?”
@@bfox8577 don't feel bad about the "dating yourself" thing, darlin. You are GORGEOUS! And....after hearing "Nikki Styx".... I really wanna hear him cover "Come Sail Away". 😎😎
Girls, Girls, Girls talked about strip clubs in NORTH America. The Crue were quite fond of Canadian strip clubs, and gave props to Vancouver's The Marble Arch in the song.
Don't remember where I read it or saw it, but Nikki Sixx said Kickstart My Heart is actually about lifestyle of being in a rock band not about his overdose. Hence the lyrics, "....to think we did all of this to rock." Dancing on Glass on the other hand is about a near death experience from heroine during, "Valentine's in London" that found him in the trash. That's in The Dirt...
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that "Dancing on Glass" from Girls, Girls, Girls is about Nikki Sixx's heroin addiction, so that's some seriously dark personal subject matter for song lyrics.
i believe the movie he heard the "dont go away mad" thing was heartbreak ridge with clint eastwood and mario vanpeebles. it was said when one of the higher ranking officers walked in on clint eastwoods guys during boot camp, and offered them special treatment if they would co-operate to get gunnery sgt tom highway( eastwood's character) drummed out of the marines. thats when stitch jones(van peebles) told the guy dont go away mad...just go away. that movie would have been around right at that time.
Tommy Lee dated the most beautiful women on earth…. Not only Heather Locklear and Pamela Anderson, but one of the most beautiful woman in the universe that not TH-cam or the media ever mention Bobbie Jean Brown aka “Cherry Pie” girl!! She’s GORGEOUS! Why is it that she is never mentioned? She’s gorgeous, dated Tommy Lee, was Warrant’s Cherry pie girl, and was one of Hollywood’s Sunset Strip party girl Goddess! I love her 😍
Omg @GRUNGE could you please, at the minimum... get nikki's name right? Is plastered 1000 times below but I just feel the need to shove it in deeper. HIS NAME IS. NIKKI ***SIXX*** THANK YOU
If you were sick as he is you would always look that way too. Give the guy credit he's still an essential big part of motley Crue and he always was and he always will be. Take a look at yourself in the mirror and try to imagine yourself having the same disease he does.
I missed my 20s ! Im an old rocker! Ive been sick and the last few weeks I was able to watch The Dirt and I loved it! I laughed and cried. Im up and ready to live again. No dope just get sick. Loving Life Again! I wish they would tour Id go see Motley Crue! I must have been busy working and stoned to miss this awesome band. My sister in-law is smiling because Im jammin to them! RIP HEAVEN ROX!
The phrase, "Don't go away mad, just got away" was muttered by Mario Van Peebles in the 1986 movie, "Heartbreak Ridge". Maybe that's where Nikki Sixx heard it?
Thank you! I am a former stripper myself- danced to GGG nightly. Had tracked down the other clubs mentioned, but didn't know where the Marble Arch was.
Here’s some six degree’s of separation for you : Nikki sixx believe’s that a girlfriend cheated on him with jack wagner & year’s later Tommy Lee’s ex wife Heather Locklear ended up dating Jack after appearing in Melrose Pl together.
What I like bout these here video's. U don't have to watch um. Click play turn it up & lay your phone down or walk away from the computer. And do your thing!!!🤟🤟🤟
At the end of Girls Girls Girls... the staccato riff on the guitar, it trails of and has the break in it because Mick was sooooo drunk! He fell out of his chair while playing it!
the thing about kickstart my heart being about Nikki's OD is a myth. it was actually just a throwaway tune that Nikki didn't like and wasn't even going to put on the album until he was convinced to.
Good video but why would you not include their most controversial song name, Shout At The Devil? I remember people talking about that for years after........
Anybody who doesn’t know all this already should take all their Motley Crue posters down and hang their hairy heads in shame this is all basic Crue history.
Fun Fact: Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away) -- I remember Nikki saying he got it from Heartbreak Ridge (1986 Clint Eastwood movie). But I never saw it, maybe someone here did and can confirm if that line really is in that movie... Anyone know? Well, who cares.
In case your wondering aboutbthat movje line im pretty certain it was tbe clint eastwood movie i watched lasr night "heart break ridge" the line dont go away mad just go awa
**Nikki walks out on stage in full shout era clothes and sits down at a piano** iiiiiiimmmmm sailiiiimg awayyyyyyyy set an open cooouuurrrrse for the GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS
Dr feelgood is about one drug dealer. Its about Top Jimmy. A musician who worked at a taco stand called top taco and sold drugs to the other musicians. Chili peppers, cobain, scott weiland, perry ferrel, motley crue, etc. All LA bands got their gear from top jimmy. You can google him.
I’ve always loved Nikki Styx’s vocals on “Come Sail Away”.
I'm crying 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂 Love it!
Crypto Jihadi I did the same thing!!
Hahaha I’m so happy you called him out on this one!! I had to replay just to make sure I heard him mess it up. LMFAO
😂😂
I listen to "Kickstart my heart" whenever I go for a jog. Perfect song.
I can appreciate that
I put it at the beginning of my Summer playlist
I played it at my dad's funeral yet it didn't help
So the dude knows all about the stories behind the songs but can't manage get Nikki's last name right? Weird.
Lindsay Osterhoff I know right.
Sixx
Lmfao wtf right???
I think that they used to call Tommy Lee sticks. However, it is funny.
Also the first fact is half wrong so hes definitely not a fan
I guess Dr. Feelgood was certified “stix times platinum”
Fun fact: the song “dancing on glass” is a reference to another sixx overdose where his drug dealer tried to wake him up with a baseball bat, figured he was dead, and dumped him in a dumpster
Damnnnn I thought that's only my mind who think about that... I don't know it was real
You got a link for this?
I didn't know that. I know the song & story. Didn't know song was about that story.
Someone read the heroin diaries
Today I watched The Dirt. I'm surprised any of Motley Crue guys remember anything from their pasts! Was also surprised how much I remember from those days, since I was on my own destructive path.
Glad you made it along the path so far & keep going bud. If you don't make it, say hi to my missus.
@@Serreski Thank you. I've found a new path. Sorry for your loss though.
Loca Luna nikki writes the sings music
Splash the rapper is the james deen version of tommy lee.tommy lee is enrique iglesias.
If you've heard any of their interviews you would know from what Nikki has said they don't remember much about the first half of their career. Who cares?!
Sticks? This isnt Steel Panther.
Larry Crabs cringe every time he says that
Lol
Ohh Isnt it....? 😌
that's cool for nixxi sixx standing up for those girls even if they were undercover
good god i just remembered how obsessed i was with them when i was 13 and it was a goooood tiiiimeee
Joey u had that big hair lol )
@@rickrolledtruth5834 ahaha no XD I wasn't from the 80s dude. i was 13 3 years ago
Meh lol your a nooby to the 80s... hey least u like it... it was way better experiencing it tho .... ask your parents I'm sure they loved it )
Dude....you know his name is Nikki SIXX, right? Like the number. Why do you keep calling him "Nikki Sticks"? Although if i ever get a dog who loves to play fetch.....that would be an awesome name!!😁😁😂😂

STIXX AS IN HES A DRUMMER! LOL
Sloth_Guy
But.........
Nikki is the bassist. 😐
Girls, Girls, Girls talked about strip clubs in NORTH America. The Crue were quite fond of Canadian strip clubs, and gave props to Vancouver's The Marble Arch in the song.
matterofact
They also referenced the famous “Crazy Horse” in Paris, France.
...just sayin’...
@@spiritcatproductions5214 Ah right. They did reference Crazy Horse.
Sixx was one hell of a writer
IS a Hell of a writer. NOT WAS!!!!
Don't remember where I read it or saw it, but Nikki Sixx said Kickstart My Heart is actually about lifestyle of being in a rock band not about his overdose. Hence the lyrics, "....to think we did all of this to rock." Dancing on Glass on the other hand is about a near death experience from heroine during, "Valentine's in London" that found him in the trash. That's in The Dirt...
is it just me or is this guy calling Nikki Sixx "Styx"
Styx is an entirely different band, bro. *eye roll*
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that "Dancing on Glass" from Girls, Girls, Girls is about Nikki Sixx's heroin addiction, so that's some seriously dark personal subject matter for song lyrics.

Shout at the Devil is my favorite album
Phantom Hell its THE ALBUM imo by Mötley 💯🎸🤘🏻. Dr. Feelgood is awesome, but Shout is the defining album.
Same
Only song worth a damn in their entire career 😂
NOFRENZ there is a lot of amazing songs from Mötley crue
What about "Wild Side"?? That's my favorite 80s song and I knew it was hella famous....
I’m shocked they don’t have more top 10 or #1 songs
Tommy Lee dated the most beautiful women on earth….

Grew Up With Them
. First Show in West Hollywood. I Watched Them Cross Over to SUPER STARDOM, at The Us Festival.
YESS I WAS LITERALLY THINKING THAT JOURNEYS FAITHFULLY WAS EQUIVALENT TO HOME SWEET HOME
I used to ride my dirt bike and played dr feel good so many times the tape broke so much I only have half the tape left. Miss my childhood.
Jeff Dlxon What type of bike?
First was a 78 Honda 75. Then a xr100. Then a yz125. Ride a crf250. There is a funny bust video on my channel at the bottom. Good times!!!
@Jeff Dlxon Nice I've only been riding for about a year now. But I started on a Yamaha Ttr230.
Pro 17 stick to the dirt! To many Buick’s out there.
Half a tape? 🤣🤣🤣
Pretty surè if a tape snaps its not usable 😂
How did someone interpret kickstart my heart wrong.
Nikki Styx never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
Omg @GRUNGE could you please, at the minimum... get nikki's name right? Is plastered 1000 times below but I just feel the need to shove it in deeper.
HIS NAME IS. NIKKI ***SIXX*** THANK YOU
Is it me or does mick always look so freaking dead inside even when they were just having fun
If you were sick as he is you would always look that way too. Give the guy credit he's still an essential big part of motley Crue and he always was and he always will be. Take a look at yourself in the mirror and try to imagine yourself having the same disease he does.
Does he keep saying sticks?? Nikki Sticks?!?! 😂😂😂
I noticed that too
that's what I first thought when I first heard kick start my heart
Their movie has boosted their popularity. They may even tour again.
Nope on the latter.
mark s well he called it. They’re gonna tour again.
I missed my 20s ! Im an old rocker! Ive been sick and the last few weeks I was able to watch The Dirt and I loved it! I laughed and cried. Im up and ready to live again. No dope just get sick.

The phrase, "Don't go away mad, just got away" was muttered by Mario Van Peebles in the 1986 movie, "Heartbreak Ridge".
Maybe that's where Nikki Sixx heard it?
The phrase was coined by Blondie in 1979s Parallel Lines
Song was Just go away
Marble Arch was in Vancouver BC--not in the USA--I worked there for 15 years
Thank you! I am a former stripper myself- danced to GGG nightly. Had tracked down the other clubs mentioned, but didn't know where the Marble Arch was.
Saints of Los Angeles is a good song so is If I die tomorrow
“Don’t go away mad...”
The line is from Mario Van People’s’ character “Stitch Jones” in Heartbreak Ridge.
"Just go away"...love that movie.
Amber H , I believe it actually IS “Stitch”, but, anyway, the point is that’s where it came from.
Ah! LOL!
I should’ve guessed!
😺👍
Nikki Sixx just kicks ass!!
Wrong they gave him 2 shots of adrenaline
You mean that the first line of Kickstart My Heart "when I get high I get high on speed" wasn't about love?
Speed is also a word for meth 🤷♀️
@@frenchfries8594 No the fuck it ain't. Speed is amphetamine. Meth is meth
Speed is about the speed of love of course.
It's about adrenaline. "When I get high get high on speed, top fuel funny car will do it for me"
@@mikeimmonen6619 you must be young because speed is an old term for meth as was crank. Amphetamines- including meth, was speed, bennies- was speed.
Here’s some six degree’s of separation for you : Nikki sixx believe’s that a girlfriend cheated on him with jack wagner & year’s later Tommy Lee’s ex wife Heather Locklear ended up dating Jack after appearing in Melrose Pl together.
The phrase “ don’t go away mad, just go away” is from heartbreak ridge
An under cover cop wouldn't have his night stick with him. Me thinks that maybe someone is lieing.
there was more than 1 cop. †he story is in The Dirt (book)
If you actually listen, the narrator actually says his name correctly MANY times sooo 🤷♂️
Alan Rickerd I was just thinking that!!!
BFBF people just wanna seem cool for pointing out a tiny mistake by another human.
I thought I was the only one that heard that he was actually saying Sixx
Offensivebrat haha yeah. People just like to listen for the mistakes cause it makes them feel better when they point them out.
Alan Rickerd lmao
I wonder if there's a story behind Looks That Kill? If there is, I want to know
On with the show about Frank becoming Nikki....
I love this Freaking Band!!!
Urgh, "I love this *Freaking band* " sounds so sickly american. Something a child would say...
Marble Arch was a strip club in Vancouver Canada, from the song girls, girls, girls. 1st concert I paid for, was Ozzy and Crue in 84
Girl Don't Go Away Mad is my favorite power ballad they sing.
What I like bout these here video's. U don't have to watch um. Click play turn it up & lay your phone down or walk away from the computer. And do your thing!!!🤟🤟🤟
At the end of Girls Girls Girls... the staccato riff on the guitar, it trails of and has the break in it because Mick was sooooo drunk! He fell out of his chair while playing it!
Ah yes my favorite, Nikki Styx
the thing about kickstart my heart being about Nikki's OD is a myth. it was actually just a throwaway tune that Nikki didn't like and wasn't even going to put on the album until he was convinced to.
Oh Really!? Interesting
Motley Crue... Wonderful To See Yahoo..😁💐
Heather Locklear first major show was TJ Hooker. After. The second show she was in SUCKED
someone explain to me why there are like 5 ads in a ten minute long video
gorls, gorls, gorls
Everybody jumping on the hype train now.
yep
Just like everyone with the queen movie
@Amber H Hopefully these kinds of bands re-emerge.
NIKKI STIX IS AWESOME
When did Nikki Sixx become "Nikki Sticks"? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I m a Vince fan
Use to love Bret Michelle’s
But Bret kind of lost his Flare
God saved him!!
it was 2 shots of adrenalin
Good video but why would you not include their most controversial song name, Shout At The Devil? I remember people talking about that for years after........
i was right about kickstart my heart! i had a feeling it was about nikki
They all did power ballads because Motley crue did power ballads
Exactly, they did it first.. not the other way around
Lol as a black woman I love me some motley. Please say his name right sixx not sticks
Come on Sixx, give God the glory for the extra time you've been given.
Amen!
5! 5 goddamn fucking ad interruptions in a 10 minute video. What the fuck is happening to TH-cam?
Home sweet home was one of my favorite songs. Lol just something about it
What about the song ‘Rodeo’? Great lyrics and melody but unreleased.
but God put those paramedics in a position where they were able to save you so happy you survived and got clean Nikki
The paramedic was a fan
Anybody who doesn’t know all this already should take all their Motley Crue posters down and hang their hairy heads in shame this is all basic Crue history.
What's your favorite Motley Crue song?
ALL ) .... this band is so American, just like hot dogs and hamburgers... everyone knows them
Kick Start My Heart
@Eddie Moyna You're King of the Internet today...
Screaming for vengeance. Oh wait thats judas priest.
Primal Scream
I always thought kickstart my heart was about getting sober
Nope literally about someone kickstarting his heart to revive him lol
Some great facts. I bet even the Crue didn't even know.. since they were a little busy living it up to pay attention.. ha
I love 💕🥰 tommy to so much 💖❤️ love ya hahaha 😂🤣😏😂🤣😂 love ya to byebye prayers 🙏 bless Jeni angel 😇 love 💕💕🥰.
First. It’s Sixx. Not sticks! Also. He didn’t shoot him self up his dealer shot him up. And it was 2 shots of adrenaline. Hey your shit right!
wheres this beat from
Watch the dirt you will love it
Can somone link me the background song
Omfg that background music makes me want to murder!
Fun Fact: Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away) -- I remember Nikki saying he got it from Heartbreak Ridge (1986 Clint Eastwood movie). But I never saw it, maybe someone here did and can confirm if that line really is in that movie... Anyone know? Well, who cares.
bugs bunny coined the dont go away mad phrase at elmer fudd.
Ok saying Nikki Styx once is a tongue twister but he keeps saying its getting on my nerves now LOL
In case your wondering aboutbthat movje line im pretty certain it was tbe clint eastwood movie i watched lasr night "heart break ridge" the line dont go away mad just go awa
Lita Ford ( Nikki GF at the time) pawned her car to make bail for Nikki .
don't go away mad just.....go away. Heartbreak Ridge.
A minute in and you missed how he was brought back with TWO adrenaline syringes so definitely not gonna watch the rest of this
Your loss!
Kickstart my heart is there best song
The Girls, Girls, Girls album is better than the Dr. Feelgood album! Change my mind!
Shout At The Devil
Dr. Feelgood is they're best album.
@@brentbare3698 That's true if ya don't count Too Fast For Love and Shout At The Devil.
That paramedic was Nikkis best fan ......
yeah i totally love nikki sticks
His name is "Sixx" not Styx, dude
They were still performing in the 2000 so idk what u mean until the 1990s
IT WASNT NIKKI SIXX'S BELT, IT WAS LITA FORD'S...
PLEASE CHECK YOUR FACTS BEFORE PUBLISHING FALSE INFO!
**Nikki walks out on stage in full shout era clothes and sits down at a piano** iiiiiiimmmmm sailiiiimg awayyyyyyyy set an open cooouuurrrrse for the GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS
Watched THE DIRT today it was AWESOME!!!!
grunge channel posting about Crue strange
Dr feelgood is about one drug dealer. Its about Top Jimmy. A musician who worked at a taco stand called top taco and sold drugs to the other musicians. Chili peppers, cobain, scott weiland, perry ferrel, motley crue, etc. All LA bands got their gear from top jimmy. You can google him.
Yes some seatle bands are listed too i know but they too worked in LA a lot. Theres pics of top jimmy with all the celebs from the 80s and 90s
