I gotta admit the 80's starting with me seeing KI$$ w/Judas Preist opening when I was 12.It's true what they say about this time period.It was crazy all the drugs,sex and r-n-roll and going to wild shows is true.
I was young and can't remember the year (81? Pre makeup removal but after Peter and Ace were gone) but my Dad told me I had to see them, so he took me to see KISS in the early 80's. Then a few months later he took me to see Alice Cooper. Now I'm the one dragging his old butt out to see those same bands lol
80s music TOTALLY ROCKED!!!! I'm so incredibly thankful that I grew up as a teen in that decade. The perfect time to be in the teen years. Back then we had to go to an arcade to play video games. We had drive in theatres and stone washed blue jeans. No internet, instead we actually had real friends who liked to do crazy things to have fun. Friday and Saturday nights we even went to the skating rinks. Oh it was so much fun, especially when you eyed that pretty girl you were scared to talk to. No we didn't text back then, there were no smart phones or cell phones. Back then you actually called a girl, if you had the nerve, and asked her out on a date. To top it all off the movies were great and so was TV back when everyone was always trying figure out what JR Ewing was up to on Dallas. We only got to see cartoons on Saturday morning, then after that we played outside all day trying to find an old tire to push down the hill to see it bounce. We played outside all the time. A wonderful time to be a kid, especially when you finally heard your favorite song from Casey Casem top 40 on the radio. If you were focused, you would record the song from the radio onto a tape recorder, LOL!!!
OMG you described my childhood to a tee! The first song that I ever recorded onto cassette was We're Not Going To Take It by Twisted Sister! You really summed it up from arcades to roller rinks. I see the neighborhood kids get off the school bus these days and straight into the house and disappear while us 80s kids couldn't be kept inside! The 80s where absolutely great times!
When being a kid was fun adventures and real friends not fake internet friends. You walked to there house talked in person and played outside. Used imagination
Too bad I didn't grow up in the 80s... Though it is my favorite decade, especially in music... I wish I could do those things as a teen, but I would probably get rejected....
There will never be a decade of music like the 80's, being from the class of 1986 I got to listen to it all and loved it, anybody still listening in 4/2024.
Like all 70's babies,how lucky were we to live as teenagers through the 80's. This song : an absolute anthem for a then 16yo girl.. and as a 50yo now....the rebel inside reignites whenever I hear this song. Huge thanks Poison for making us feel forever young 🎸🔥
@@Darthsinned Yeah me too!!👍🎸 This song almost reminds me of myself: Walked/ran🏃♀️ away from home at 16 to escape my uber religious family to try n fend for myself in the big wide world: "🎶Turned her back on a best friendship n watched her family slip away 🎶" pretty well sums it up!! This song and a tonne of hits from Guns n Roses & Bon Jovi pretty much saved my life- with NO regrets-as I keep walking to the beat of my own drum still. This music genre gives me such an invigorating boost every time I hear it!🎸💕👍
My mom taught me everything about the 80s I love her so much I miss her to death she is my guardian angel now I just lost her three weeks ago I miss you so much you don’t even know we were soo close we felt like we were twins. I miss her so much. I’m bringing you home before Christmas Mamma.
God the women in the 80s were so naturally beautifull!!! This woman ...Pam anderson ...Bobbi Brown ...Tawny Kitaen...Heather Locklear....the music was better back then ...movies were better ....even the food tasted better back then ....no mass shootings ...no pandemics....If only I had a time machine ...I was a teen in the 80s and they were by far the best days of my life!!
Not sure about all of that, but I think alot of the women today are prettier, but I think it's because they perfected the makeup. Give me those 80 bods. I don't need every woman tattooed either.
@@officialyuus hello. I'm Doing Good Today. I've Always Been Listening to Your Group. But I Like it that the Group was Based in Mechanicsburg Pennsylvania. I Was Actually in Lancaster Pennsylvania in 2012. Even Though that County Is Very Much Mennonite I Know There's More Variety of Music Tastes There Than People Would Think. Your Style Has Always Been Cool Different and Fun. Keep Rocking. These Days I'm in Missouri. Have a Great Day and Night. 🎸 🎤 🙂

@@michellehawkins2865I know u left this a year ago, but that wasn’t them u were talking to. It was a scammer. Also, I’m from coatesville Pennsylvania. Lancaster is a lot of Amish/mennonite, but Lancaster is turning into the ghetto.
I'm 18 and this music go harder than everything now days. It actually has meaning and gives you a good feeling. And a feeling to relate too... God bless
I live in Nebraska. When the town of Pilger got hit by a tornado a few years ago, Michaels went to help out the residents. He just seems like one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. He puts on some pretty awesome shows as well.
that is very cool, but i really like the bass line during the pre-chorus. something funky about it that fits the song perfectly the rest of the bass lines, not so much but Bobby was never the adventurous type on the bass.
"Fallen Angel" the video shows the father upset that his daughter is just (out of the blue) leaving home on Friday. The song is called (Mama's) Fallen Angel, when it actually is (Daddy's) Fallen Angel.
The irony of this song is 3 dudes left small Mechanicsburg Pa to go to Hollywood and make it big and they did. They wound up calling themselves Poison. By he way I still love CC Devilles guitar playing.
Cool story. Fr. Although I wonder if I cringe at my younger yrs,how older ppl must feel... Like in the 80s did art transfer to real life? 🤔 I was born in 82. I don't remember any dudes wearing glammy makeup
Im a 91 kid & thought 90s was great until i heard 80s rock & it wipes the floor with anything that came in the 90s. Nirvana, pearl jam or anything later was the music that destroyed rock
C.C.'s guitar and Bobby's bass were both just blistering hot in the entire album. Absolutely killer tone and punch. Why can't we have music like this now?!?
CC, my 3 buddy's and myself at the Rainbow on the strip one night. At one of the tables outside in the patio. OUTSTANDING time in my life!!! CC, thanks for the drinks brother!! You rock!!
My mom loved his song, because I broke her heart by running away ... But I did come back home by 17. But I miss my mama ,🙏and I listen to this every time it rolls around
CC's the man. That's how he switches guitars 5 times during the solo. Poison rocks. I was born in the fall of 1975, so I'm just old enough to have rocked out to this stuff when it was new. 20+ years later, I still rock out to it! Go Poison! I hope you rock forever!
The 80s. Just the greatest musical decade ever. The joy, the excitement, the fashion, it was truly the best of times. Most of all, it was fun, fun, fun!! Any new bands out there, remember to put a smile on the peoples face. Rock n roll will never die!
Man I’m so glad I have an awesome dad who can play this type of music. No other kids I know has even heard of poison or def leopard. I wish there were still bands that made this genre of music. Even if they did it wouldn’t feel the same.
I am thankful CC has turned his life around for the better, it's a blessing and Amen he has faced his demons and continues to rock it! CC Deville you rock my world 😎💓you are such a personable kind soul. I think you are very Hansome, hot & sexiest man alive ❣BTW I am NOT some crazy fan, just a country gal & single businesswoman. Your guitar paying is so incredible with very unique qualities which are truly underestimated! C.C. DeVille dating history - 5 long term relationships / me 3 Who is he dating right now? According to our records, C.C. DeVille is possibly single. OMG I totally would be indebted if I could meet this man!!!!
I grew up in the 80s listening to this and other metal bands and have never stopped. I’ve been listening in the 90s, 00s, 10s and now. It’s certainly the best and today’s music can’t compare.
I was Born in 1973, and I'm from Rome and this Song reminds me of High school days Poison were quite popular in Italy in the 80s and in the 90s, even though they never came to Italy By far my favourite hard rock band
I remember recording this video on VHS to take with me when I moved to the island. My sister and I made tons of music video VHS tapes so we didn't miss Canada. Damn! Memories!❤
Man, I remember I used to watch MTV all day long, and just fall in love with girls in the videos over and over and over again. There's a girl in the Nelson video for "Love and Affection" that is on screen once for literally 1 second, and I can still remember her face exactly to this day. The girl in Billy Idol "Rock the Cradle of Love", the Aerosmith videos with his daughter, this video, I mean... those were awesome videos back then. Lord knows what effect all that had on me to this day.
The girl in Rock the Cradle of Love always reminds me of my crush back in early 90s because that song used to come on MTV when we were hanging out. Good times Rachel Kelly.
There are no word's to describe how much i miss the 80"s.. My daughter knew the words to the song at 8yrs .. she loved this song.. it was our get the day going song.. I just started being able to listen to this song ..I lost my daughter 9 yrs ago to a drunk driver i had to let her go off life support.. her urn is on the shelf above my stero .. and i play this song everyday for us and i dance all around the living room like we always did.. i miss Kayla so much.. but i know she is with me.. looking out for me.. i fell from a 4th floor balcony.. i broke many bones but i didnt have no head trauma at all.. doctors where wow someones looking out for me.. i know i will see her again..but for now thanks Poison.. i have many memories of when we played this song and danced around together ❤️...Take Care 80's Fan's
The artistic freedom, the still-developing evolution of the genres you mentioned, and the imagination to just do what the fuck you wanted to do musically. From the 80's to early nineties, we will NEVER see another era that was as excellent as that was. And from a black man who's an avowed Hip-Hop and metalhead, Poison was truly one of the underappreciated bands during that time. Their songwriting, musicianship, and performances were legendary. And their music still endures to this day of how great a group they were.
@@thegodfather1907 Yeah there was racism come on, dude i'm Mohawk Indian born in the 90's have older family members that were around back then. in the 80's. There's been racism in this continent for centuries. Plus I'm a biracial dude but i will grant that it wasn't being pushed as much as now but to be fair critical race theory was started in 1980 by some Marxist cucks. But in places like prison racial tension has always existed. It's jus tribalism but magnified beyond tribes and across larger populations. The 80's had it's problems the Contras and the drug wars to start. But yes, music, fashion movies, were better,.
You might have missed out on the easy going life and good times of the 1980's but you can listen to the music anytime. You are just catching up. Poison was one of the best bands of the era and there were some good ones.
as I listen 30 years later ..one of the most underrated gutair solos ever. Captures all the emotions of the characters portrayed ....love it .Of course song is written way before video director's vision steps in lol
17 years ago on August 5 2007 my dad passed away I'd been at the hospital literally all day. That night I got in my car to come home. This was the first time I'd been alone all day. When I turned on the radio this song was playing. A detail of my past that I'll never forget. Great song from a great band!
Headbangers Ball debuted April of 87, MTV had been on air less than 6 years at that point, hardly WAY before. And how do you know Michael’s a kid? Could be the same age as you Army Beef, or even older 😁
When this song came out I was 16. It has always been my favorite song by them. this video is absolutely amazing I wanted to be the male version I'm going out to LA and making it big. But sadly at 50 years old now I guess that's not going to happen lol😅
I was 5 when the 80s ended. Old enough to get a sampler of how awesome they were, but gone before I could really take in all in, so it feels like an amazing dream world I wish I could experience now. At least I grew up on songs like this. LOVE Poison and the hair bands, this song's so underrated.
looking back,growing up in the 80`s was a dream..no internet,no cell phones ,if you wanted to meet a friend you went home to them and knocked on their door..hey wanna do something???.Music was avesome..
Legends ❤️❤️ ❤️ I love the video, the loving dad and mom, the hot girl, the timeless awesome rock music 😎 , those were the golden years in music industry . Nothing now comes close. Classic 😍
I BORN IN THE BEST EPOQUE OF ALL OF TIME AND POISON IS MY FIRST BAND WHEN I WAS ONE TEENAGE AND THIS SONG I BACK AND MY BEST TIME OF MY YOUNG I BELIEVE IF I CANT BACK TO TIME I RETURN TO 80s AND GO TO SEE TO BRETT MICHAELS,C.C. DEVILLE,BOBBY AND RICKY ROCKETT IN YOU BEST TIMES THIS GUYS ARE THE BEST OF BEST OF 80s THANK YOU FOR SHARE THIS VIDEO AND THE ONE OF MY FAVORITES SONGS OF POISON SALUTED FROM PUERTO CORTES HONDURAS
Damn I loved Poison back in the day. This song came out in 1988, senior year of high school. You could have the worse day ever but listening to their music made you forget about all the shit going on in your life!
I love Poison! I'm still listening to them in 2024. I'd lock myself in my room and play their music constantly. They got me through some hard times also. I just love them.
CC is singularly underrated. I am a guitar player myself, CC may not have the chops of EVH but he has the same level of musicianship. His solos are never a flury of meaningless notes running up and down the scales like a pattern exercise - his solos are melodic mini songs in themselves. CC, Zakk and Eddie, all have mastered this skill - I can absolutely sing their solos because they are so memorable and so melodic and so well composed. I cant say that about most other guitar players. And yes there are many others in this category like say, Nuno, Sykes etc but I find these 3 especially skilled at writing beautiful solo lines.
The greatest classic rock band of all time no one can tell me different and puts on the absolute best live performances of any classic rock band love you poison thank y’all for getting me through tough times
Im learning the sheet music, it seems poppy but its very rhythmically complex. CC is a fucking genius. there is a reason he got the gig and Slash didn't
God how I wish I could back to the 80's. Being a teen back then was the Best... My friends, the parties... The music.... Being in love was the best part....🙄🤔😳💔 OK. maybe not...😳 Having friends... ...The 80's ROCKED!! OLD SCHOOL. ⏰
Best Poison tune.... It doesn't matter what brought you here...this song was always waiting for you.
Bruce Slaughterhouse You have the most manly name I have ever seen. 😂
I agree, I liked Poison in my day, they actually rock!!! This is their best song they ever did though, in my opinion!!! 🖒
@@kevinchadler469 I second that!!

Man I really missed out on the 80's. You guys had the best age of good music

Just love that intro to the solo! Damn C.C. Rocks!
that is very cool, but i really like the bass line during the pre-chorus. something funky about it that fits the song perfectly
the rest of the bass lines, not so much but Bobby was never the adventurous type on the bass.
So fortunate to have lived through the 80's listening to Poison!!
Not only the best Poison song, but one of the greatest ever.
Bret just wanted his girlfriend in the video lol
You got that right.
It's their best song, I totally agree 👍!!!!
One of my ALL TIME favorite songs!!!!! Could listen to this song all day and never tire of hearing it.
"Fallen Angel" the video shows the father upset that his daughter is just (out of the blue) leaving home on Friday. The song is called (Mama's) Fallen Angel, when it actually is (Daddy's) Fallen Angel.
I got it on a half-hour loop. Wore out the strings on my air guitar.
"Daddy... I've decided to move. I'm going to California. I'm leaving Friday." One of the most hilarious video openings of all time. 🤣
The irony of this song is 3 dudes left small Mechanicsburg Pa to go to Hollywood and make it big and they did. They wound up calling themselves Poison. By he way I still love CC Devilles guitar playing.

60. 70. 80. 90.
70s better than 80s tho

Radio is dead
this is garbage and it was in the 80s too
First Poison album bought at 8 years old in '88. Fan ever since.

Never stop, either!!!
For me ...even the intro. LOL
Man I’m so glad I have an awesome dad who can play this type of music. No other kids I know has even heard of poison or def leopard. I wish there were still bands that made this genre of music. Even if they did it wouldn’t feel the same.
I am thankful CC has turned his life around for the better, it's a blessing and Amen he has faced his demons and continues to rock it!
CC Deville you rock my world 😎💓you are such a personable kind soul. I think you are very Hansome, hot & sexiest man alive ❣BTW I am NOT some crazy fan, just a country gal & single businesswoman. Your guitar paying is so incredible with very unique qualities which are truly underestimated!
C.C. DeVille dating history - 5 long term relationships / me 3

According to our records, C.C. DeVille is possibly single. OMG I totally would be indebted if I could meet this man!!!!
Hello Tara
How are you doing today?
Nice meeting you here
@taragosselin5176. Hey there how long have you been a fan of poison?
I grew up in the 80s listening to this and other metal bands and have never stopped. I’ve been listening in the 90s, 00s, 10s and now. It’s certainly the best and today’s music can’t compare.
One of the best songs from the 80's.
I was born in the 80's and grew up on the best music ever made. Wish we could all go back in time.
That's the first Poison song I have heard, and immediately got hooked to the band, and then to the rest of 80's hard rock bands. Incredible music.
I was Born in 1973, and I'm from Rome and this Song reminds me of High school days
Poison were quite popular in Italy in the 80s and in the 90s, even though they never came to Italy
By far my favourite hard rock band
I remember recording this video on VHS to take with me when I moved to the island. My sister and I made tons of music video VHS tapes so we didn't miss Canada. Damn! Memories!❤
I’m here and 67 years old and still rocking it! I used to cover this one in my gigging days in the 90s!
Yes this was a decade of decadence and we enjoyed every moment of it.
I miss videos like this! I remember seeing this video on MTV, the good old days. Hair bands and glam rockbands like Poison were sooooo good too.
Man, I remember I used to watch MTV all day long, and just fall in love with girls in the videos over and over and over again. There's a girl in the Nelson video for "Love and Affection" that is on screen once for literally 1 second, and I can still remember her face exactly to this day. The girl in Billy Idol "Rock the Cradle of Love", the Aerosmith videos with his daughter, this video, I mean... those were awesome videos back then. Lord knows what effect all that had on me to this day.
Yas ! Yas ! and yas ! I still remember a lot of them, and I was like 11 or 12 at the time.
I had to go watch that Nelson video after you said this. It's gotta be the woman who appears towards the end just to mouth the words "baby" amiright?
Whitesnake Videos....Warrant Cherry Pie
The girl in Rock the Cradle of Love always reminds me of my crush back in early 90s because that song used to come on MTV when we were hanging out. Good times Rachel Kelly.
Graduated HS in 85 and college in 90. Damn, this song brings back so many memories. I wish i had a time machine that could bring me back to the 80s.
I was 14 when this was on MTV. Still love it! CC = totally underrated; and this is coming from an Yngwie fan.
I was 10
I was 8.
I was 12💯🤘
I was 14…Summer of 88. Big drought in MN with 100 degree days, and watched MTV that whole summer.
@@paisleyprincess7996 same in ohio.i remember doing the same thing as well.
Poison is the best band you will ever see live....When they come you will have the best a band can give!
ONE OF POISON'S BEST SONGS AND MUSIC VIDEOS THAT WILL NEVER GET OLD ! !
Love this song!! 🎸❤️ Poison Rocks!!
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here
I love this song. It truly shows the hardships of growing up. Plus it's just a great piece of classic rock.
One of the greatest riffs of all time.
There are no word's to describe how much i miss the 80"s.. My daughter knew the words to the song at 8yrs .. she loved this song.. it was our get the day going song.. I just started being able to listen to this song ..I lost my daughter 9 yrs ago to a drunk driver i had to let her go off life support.. her urn is on the shelf above my stero .. and i play this song everyday for us and i dance all around the living room like we always did.. i miss Kayla so much.. but i know she is with me.. looking out for me.. i fell from a 4th floor balcony.. i broke many bones but i didnt have no head trauma at all.. doctors where wow someones looking out for me.. i know i will see her again..but for now thanks Poison.. i have many memories of when we played this song and danced around together ❤️...Take Care 80's Fan's
😢
@joaoch.7423 awe thanks.. but I have happy memories of us together listening to this song..take Care
@@80sgirl4everHello
How are you doing today?
Nice meeting you here
2023 and I confirm this is 100% better than all the music now
Facts!
This shit STILL doesn't get old. CC tearing it up on lead
What a great decade...Rock, pop, metal, rap and hip hop, R&B, funk, etc...It was ALL good.
And there wasn't all this political bullshit we have today and racism.
The artistic freedom, the still-developing evolution of the genres you mentioned, and the imagination to just do what the fuck you wanted to do musically. From the 80's to early nineties, we will NEVER see another era that was as excellent as that was. And from a black man who's an avowed Hip-Hop and metalhead, Poison was truly one of the underappreciated bands during that time. Their songwriting, musicianship, and performances were legendary. And their music still endures to this day of how great a group they were.
@@thegodfather1907 Yeah there was racism come on, dude i'm Mohawk Indian born in the 90's have older family members that were around back then. in the 80's. There's been racism in this continent for centuries. Plus I'm a biracial dude but i will grant that it wasn't being pushed as much as now but to be fair critical race theory was started in 1980 by some Marxist cucks. But in places like prison racial tension has always existed. It's jus tribalism but magnified beyond tribes and across larger populations. The 80's had it's problems the Contras and the drug wars to start. But yes, music, fashion movies, were better,.
… 2022 yes indeed …
I remember his hair was so long and shocked out unreal
You might have missed out on the easy going life and good times of the 1980's but you can listen to the music anytime. You are just catching up. Poison was one of the best bands of the era and there were some good ones.
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here
@kimgallagher6254. Indeed they were one of the best bands of that time how long have you been a fan of them?
What a great band, Nothing else to add. The energy, the rhythm. I will never forget the way Rikki Rockett plays the drums it`s amazing.
as I listen 30 years later ..one of the most underrated gutair solos ever. Captures all the emotions of the characters portrayed ....love it .Of course song is written way before video director's vision steps in lol
My favorite Poison song.
Awesome Video ! Love the song and Love the Girl at the End. CC is one of the most Underrated Guitarist ever ! Love his Riffs !
❤Poison AweSome I Can Relate too All of this seems So relevant then and now even today
Love Poison😊❤
@WandaMcCloud. Yes they’re really great… how long have you been a fan of them?
That guitar playing at the end...omg
I agree, my favorite Poison song!!! Love the guitar solo!!! Kick ass
Awesome Jam from Poison!! The good ol' days would never be forgoten!!!
17 years ago on August 5 2007 my dad passed away I'd been at the hospital literally all day. That night I got in my car to come home. This was the first time I'd been alone all day. When I turned on the radio this song was playing. A detail of my past that I'll never forget. Great song from a great band!
My favorite road trip song back in the day. Sounds phenomenal cranked up to the max on a rural highway.
Sounds just as good at 30 decibels going down a city street too! Been there, done that!
They were my momma's favorite band back in the 80's.
Still rocking it till this day 💕🤘🏻
remember dial up MTV and headbangers ball anybody?? when MTV was MTV.
Michael Bauer Monday night for headbangers ball( in Mexico)
God yes, now its crap
the Ball never disappointed.......
"dial up MTV and headbangers ball anybody??"
MTV was MTV WAY before that....kid
Headbangers Ball debuted April of 87, MTV had been on air less than 6 years at that point, hardly WAY before. And how do you know Michael’s a kid? Could be the same age as you Army Beef, or even older 😁
When this song came out I was 16. It has always been my favorite song by them. this video is absolutely amazing I wanted to be the male version I'm going out to LA and making it big. But sadly at 50 years old now I guess that's not going to happen lol😅
Oh yeah. Sounds just as good as it did back then. Love the guitar break.
I was 5 when the 80s ended. Old enough to get a sampler of how awesome they were, but gone before I could really take in all in, so it feels like an amazing dream world I wish I could experience now. At least I grew up on songs like this. LOVE Poison and the hair bands, this song's so underrated.
I need to see these men again . One the best bands LIVE AND NO BACK TRAX . And bc of that....the y blow Motley crue away
looking back,growing up in the 80`s was a dream..no internet,no cell phones ,if you wanted to meet a friend you went home to them and knocked on their door..hey wanna do something???.Music was avesome..
One of the best music video cold opens of all time.
Legends ❤️❤️ ❤️ I love the video, the loving dad and mom, the hot girl, the timeless awesome rock music 😎 , those were the golden years in music industry . Nothing now comes close. Classic 😍
I have always loved this song and video!! The good old days of MTV and the 80s. I miss them!
I BORN IN THE BEST EPOQUE OF ALL OF TIME AND POISON IS MY FIRST BAND WHEN I WAS ONE TEENAGE AND THIS SONG I BACK AND MY BEST TIME OF MY YOUNG I BELIEVE IF I CANT BACK TO TIME I RETURN TO 80s AND GO TO SEE TO BRETT MICHAELS,C.C. DEVILLE,BOBBY AND RICKY ROCKETT IN YOU BEST TIMES THIS GUYS ARE THE BEST OF BEST OF 80s THANK YOU FOR SHARE THIS VIDEO AND THE ONE OF MY FAVORITES SONGS OF POISON SALUTED FROM PUERTO CORTES HONDURAS
Damn I loved Poison back in the day. This song came out in 1988, senior year of high school. You could have the worse day ever but listening to their music made you forget about all the shit going on in your life!
I love Poison! I'm still listening to them in 2024. I'd lock myself in my room and play their music constantly. They got me through some hard times also. I just love them.
Still sounds as good today as it did when it came out all those years ago! Love this song!
Ahh, the wholesomeness of good ole rock-'n'-roll of the 80's and early 90's. A better era in America in which to make music!
Man I miss the 80's. These guys, dokken, scorp's, etc... So much better than today's "music".
Im grateful they still tour regardless. Don Dokken postponed his European dates though
Saw them perform last night in NH, what a fantastic show! Please continue to tour with Def Leppard!
Just saw them at Mohegan Sun- what a show!
People seem to forget how big these guys were! Huge band !
I haven't forgotten 👍
The best guitar 🎸 solo, of theirs as well!!!!!
The band I saw the most in my teens. Good lord we had so much freaking fun. Packed my bags and headed to Hollywood. Great times. How I miss them.
CC is singularly underrated. I am a guitar player myself, CC may not have the chops of EVH but he has the same level of musicianship. His solos are never a flury of meaningless notes running up and down the scales like a pattern exercise - his solos are melodic mini songs in themselves. CC, Zakk and Eddie, all have mastered this skill - I can absolutely sing their solos because they are so memorable and so melodic and so well composed. I cant say that about most other guitar players. And yes there are many others in this category like say, Nuno, Sykes etc but I find these 3 especially skilled at writing beautiful solo lines.
LOL my gym teacher puts this song all the time when we are playing basketball or volleyball at his class. So awesome.
LOL
You have an awesome gym teacher.
Hahaha :)
I want ur gym teacher ;-;
I play this song as one of 3 songs to warm up my swing of a pool cue
My Halloween costume fallen 😇 this song was stuck in my head all night. Thanks to my mom for the awesome music years ago when I was a kid and a teen ❤
The greatest classic rock band of all time no one can tell me different and puts on the absolute best live performances of any classic rock band love you poison thank y’all for getting me through tough times
Agreed! Saw them in 89 when I was in 8th grade and I remember it like it was yesterday. I was in awe!
That guitar 🎸 is awesome 👏
The 80s was seriously a spectacular decade. Maybe it’s just nostalgia, but man, I would do anything to go back.
Im learning the sheet music, it seems poppy but its very rhythmically complex. CC is a fucking genius. there is a reason he got the gig and Slash didn't
Ca Mo Man, if you learn it. Post a video and drop the link here.
Just pure magic!! This band moves together like a wild flowing river.
I love that imagery, a wild flowing river. And they still move together like that on stage, even after 33 years. I can't wait see them again in 2020.
Can we take a moment to appreciate C.C.’s amazing performance!?! 🤘🏻✊🏻
God how I wish I could back to the 80's.
Being a teen back then was the Best...
My friends, the parties...
The music....
Being in love was the best part....🙄🤔😳💔
OK. maybe not...😳
Having friends...
...The 80's ROCKED!!
OLD SCHOOL. ⏰
