So this song and video is semi-based on a true story. Dave "The Snake" Sabo (guitarist) wrote the song after reading about an 18 year old in LA who got life in prison for breaking and entering, drunk and disorderly, and first degree murder. He did in fact shoot another 18 year old friend dead in the chest one night while drunk on the streets. The name Ricky was supposedly chosen to fit better with the song and to protect the 18 yr old's identity. If you are interested, "Youth Gone Wild" was the world's first introduction to Skid Row, you should check that out too.
He was such a handsome man with beautiful hair and the best part he's one of the greatest voice ever in history of popular music (I don't wanna write rock cause he's much more than this). So you cannot say that his fame was based on appearance cause we talk about big, big talent here! Some people really won the gens lottery:D
I hated every minute of high school but the one good thing about that time is it was the 80’s and we had the greatest music! There will never be another time like the 80’s.
There's a pattern developing here lol ... the 80s were my teen years and i hated high school and i totally credit the music with saving my life ... peace
"....You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend...." "Accidents will happen, they all heard Ricky say. He fired his six shot to the wind, that child blew a child away...."
Ricky is 53 now and 35 years into his life sentence. This popped up on one of my Gen X sites. I'm just going to remember when I saw them live in concert with Bon Jovi and my kids are jealous
Youth Gone Wild, In A Darkened Room, Monkey Business, Quicksand Jesus, Here I Am, Piece of Me, Rattlesnake Shake, Slave to the Grind, Mudkicker... All great Skid Row songs!!!
@@CroMagJohnson For sure. But if you really have never sat down and listened to the 3rd album Subhuman Race it is actually pretty freakin' good. No it isn't solid as the first two and it is nothing like the other albums musically but man there are some damn good songs on that album. They were trying to do something different and honestly they were way far ahead of their time. Go listen to it a few times. Like I said no it is not going to live up to this but is good in its own way. I listen to it just as much as the others.
I saw that concert in Biloxi, MS. It was great! Sebastian Bach ripped the back side of his tight leather pants… the entire seam and kept on singing…. After showing the audience of course 😂.
I was there too, in the 80's Flash forward to a concert in Jacksonville, FL, in the mid 2000's, and the openers were Sebastion Bach and Axle Rose.... I want to say it was Disturbed, but that seems incongruous
The guy who played Ricky lives down here in Wilmington NC. He said he was paid something like 200$ cash and all the beer he could drink while shooting the video
That voice! Those cheekbones! That hair! I used to be in a little bit of disbelief that, as a teenage girl, I wished to have the hair of Sebastian Bach 😂 Great reaction 🤘
Skidrow's song WASTED TIME. Hits very very hard, especially when you know what it's about and anyone that has watched someone fall to addiction can identify with it.
First time caller here! I just saw Sebastian Bach last week and was COMPLETELY enamored ❤ He looks amazing for his age and sounds EXACTLY the same as his videos!! His son is the drummer for him
Gotta check out Fly to the Angels by Slaughter... Mark Slaughter's vocals slay and the story is beautiful. Pretty sure you will like it since you enjoyed I Remember You.
Skid Row band was based out of NJ. Song idea was came from a local news report of a similar event. Yes the most successful bands in the eighties had a formula. Stunningly handsome lead singer with great hair and great vocal range, three guitars or two guitars and a keyboard, insane drummer, all members could sing and an ability to present raw metal rock song or grab your attention with a power ballad. Skid Row’s success was with Sebastian. After they fired him, never had another hit. Each part of the formula must be outstanding. When a component of it is gone, their success dwindles. Some reunite, some don’t. Some stay whole. Those bands are magical.
He did that on I Will Remember You.... which is the best one to start with in terms of hearing Bach's voice. BP had the appropriate stunned reaction. 😂
I remeber when I heard this the first time back in 89, that scream of "That child blew a child away* made me tear up. Sebastian's vocals were amazing!T oday Ricky would be 53 and 35 into a life sentence (apparently got denied parol a few times).
There's few things I love more than watching younger people hear a song from my generation and find out how great it really was. You're only a few years younger than me but a first hearing is a first hearing. First time visiting the channel, and you got my sub. Keep it up!
"That child blew a child away" hits like a punch in the teeth from Holyfield. I think the best thing I was ever taught was to not take anything I was told at face value. If you teach your kids to think for themselves and question everything they will be strong, independent and unwilling to be led by whatever narrative is currently the loudest in our society.
There are too many child's(youth) blowing child's away from day to day,,,epidemic the gun violence.... who is raising these kids what happened to society?....
Skid Row, G&R, Great White, Def Leppard, Poison, Warrant, and so on. They were all part of what was called "Hair Bands" because they were all sporting the same hairdos, the same clothes, and the same style. The music varied slightly from one band to the other, but at the base, the sound you hear is the same. I had them ALL on EVERY inch of my wall, and when I ran out of wall space, I used the ceiling. LOL. Sebastian Bach watched me sleep every night, and let me tell you, it was a BEAUTIFUL thing to wake up to. He had an amazing voice. A lot of those bands came over from Europe. It was basically the second wave of the British Invasion. I know Def Leppard was, Europe, obviously, Metallica...I think Whitesnake...Iron Maiden...I know Ozzy was. They came over when the US started the hair band craze here, and I couldn't get enough of them. I didn't go to concerts because I was/am partially deaf, and that kind of sound when you aren't used to being to hear is BRUTAL. I made the mistake of standing in front of a speaker at a school dance once in secondary school. OMG. When you're used to everything being muted, and then suddenly it's like BAM it's too much. I knew I wouldn't be able to tolerate a live show. But I loved the music just the same.
He had a huge self-control issue and was arrested on more than one occasion... once while on stage! Fans thought it was a stunt until he didn't return. The band eventually fired him because they couldn't depend on him, and he brought drama everywhere. Physically and musically, he had all of God's gifts. If he'd had insight into his own psyche, he would have been every 80s girl's dream.
The music was phenominal! He sang with so much emotion! Dude was on his knees. Skid Row was never the same without Sebastain Bach! You should checkout Jainie's got a gun by Aerosmith
If you ever watch Pearl Jam - Jeremy (the unedited video) be prepared because it is a true story. The singer Eddie Vedder read about it and the band wrote a song about it. The end of the video was a result of bullying.
Not entirely true. The boy that blew his own head off wasn't a delinquent like on the music video. He did this to himself because a girl broke his heart. He was a gentle soul and Pearl Jam were sued because of defamation.
This song was one of the top jams of my teen years. And I’ll be 47 years old in less than six moths. To me this track went hard, and I still love it to this day.
YOUTH GONE WILD!!!! I was born in the 70’s but ran wild in the 80’s. Grew up in a housing community in South Portland Maine. That was the song that described all of us at that time!!!! Love your reactions! Also….. Ive never really been much for rap or hip hop…. Until…. I came across your channel. I’ve been watching your work and your songs. You have created a true fan. Thank you for what you do
Dude....Youth Gone Wild, Quicksand Jesus, Monkey Business, In a Darkened Room........you need to hear these tracks....this band was WAY under appreciated....
Back then a lot of videos and the music always stood fir something I believe that came out when it was really bad with teens drinking and driving and drugs basically they were trying to reach out to the teens in classic rock just TLC this was how they would reach out for awareness on stuff like that
I miss this era of MTV....this was a heavy song at the time, and still stood the test of time. I have played this entire song, Lead guitar part, and it was brilliant, he wrote a seering solo that is not heard too often. I Miss the Old Skid Row.
I love this song! I love Skid Row for creating this song. These songs are so important and it is so many youth's stories.. breaks my heart. Thank you BP.
This song plays on repeat for days after i hear from my nephew currently doing life in Helene Georgia. He was 19 when convicted and the instant i found out this song started up in my head.
Same time period as Guns and Roses and all the hard rock/heavy metal bands would make at least one "power ballad" back then, it was a law or something. :) Good thing they did it, those are the songs on the "oldie stations" now....
I met snake and all of skid row with Tesla at the state fair in Pueblo , CO in 2002 I believe it was. He is intelligent and a gentleman. It was a great night I must say!
OOOOOO I have been waiting on you to do this reaction! Absolutely one of my faves of this album. Which the entire album is awesome! Wasted Time and Slave to the Grind are great songs my Skid Row also.
I grew up with this music. All hair bands of that time.Sebastian always stood out. Amazing range. Argument within the band, Sebastian got no say -he left. He took that amazing voice with him. As for his replacement- Ive never one listened to him. He can't be replaced, like Journey and Steve Perry.
Good song, good band. When they started out. Talking about getting out of school and going into life.... On your own with no help . Check out .. I Remember You, ia one their best. He could sing.. Reminds me of the Merle haggard song, ,, Mama Tried... And Johnny Paycheck,,,The only Hell my Mama ever Raised... Great song
If you like this, one of the bands at this time was Warrant I love Jani`s voice and if you like story telling try Uncle Tom`s Cabin,Heaven,or I saw red
Great reaction. This song came out when I was 18 so it was a reality check. Funny you mentioned GNR. I saw Skid Row as an opener for GNR in 1991. Excellent show. Both bands sounded great.
Skid Row was the best concert ive ever been to. Bach had been watching people get on stage and jump into the crowd while Pantera was playing and was so amped up he jumped into the crowd multiple times while Skid Row was playing...security was getting p*ssed
I remember you is probably my favorite skid row song (mostly because of a connection with a girl I had a massive crush on around the time the song came out when I was in highschool😂) decades in the past, but it’s funny how those mental connections never go away
I just stumbled onto your page...and I am hooked. You are by far the best reaction person....because, you actually listen to the words, most don't. So now I am just going through your videos.
Lyrically, a hard and daunting song to listen to. The lost youth of America is still so evident today. As a SR and Bach lover and fan, i will always crush hard when i see Sebastian in video or live. My husband has accepted this about me. ❤
For an awesome power ballad, check out Steelheart's " I'll Never Let You Go". Singer Miljenko has an awesome high range voice. He did the singing for Mark Wahlberg in the movie "Rockstar"
One of the best power ballads of the 80's. Such a great song! Huge hit for them. Bach has some of the best chops in music. "Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins poured gasoline, it kept his motor running, but it never kept him clean". A great line! Skid Row wrote some amazing songs, many of which were unlike the other artists of the genre who were sining about sex, drugs & rock n roll. Skid Row had a lot to say and messages to get across. Good stuff!

Rachel Bolan has the nose ring, ear connection and he plays the bass. Just sayin'.
@@WykkedMofo
I was actually going to make this same comment
@@WykkedMofo Thanks! edited.
This song was inspired by the lead singers brother. Check Wikipedia. It explains it.
Welcome to Gen X. This was our world to grow up in.
I was born in the 70's. Am I a Gen X Cause really Just don't understand the Title of what it represents?
Yeaasss 🙌 1970 baby here
Sebastian Bach has got one HELL of a voice! I get total hair envy every time I look at him. What a glorious man
He was such a handsome man with beautiful hair and the best part he's one of the greatest voice ever in history of popular music (I don't wanna write rock cause he's much more than this). So you cannot say that his fame was based on appearance cause we talk about big, big talent here! Some people really won the gens lottery:D
Sadly his voice has suffered over the years.
Yes, yes, YESS!!!
Have you listened to his new stuff? Doesn't sound like it's declined very much@@laurabailey1054
@@laurabailey1054- Sebastian's voice is still great. Sebastian is an actor and singer on Broadway now.
Fired his six shots into the wind, that child blew a child awayyyyyy. That is the hardest hitting line!
Ugh this has always been my favorite line. It is so powerful.
It hits even harder because this song is based on a true story. The teenager was drunk, shot his friend dead, and ended up with life in prison.
I hated every minute of high school but the one good thing about that time is it was the 80’s and we had the greatest music! There will never be another time like the 80’s.
I hated high school too but looking back, I still had the best times, mainly because of our music.
Fax. 80's was an epic era.
There's a pattern developing here lol ... the 80s were my teen years and i hated high school and i totally credit the music with saving my life ... peace
Same, i was a loner, music got me through, gosh i miss that time 😔
80's kid here ..now in my mid 50's..these songs take me back to 17..❤
"....You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend...." "Accidents will happen, they all heard Ricky say. He fired his six shot to the wind, that child blew a child away...."
Love that line.
Ricky is 53 now and 35 years into his life sentence. This popped up on one of my Gen X sites. I'm just going to remember when I saw them live in concert with Bon Jovi and my kids are jealous
I also saw them in concert with Bon Jovi. Best ever!
I saw them in Sacramento in the fall of 1989 with AC/DC

Youth Gone Wild, In A Darkened Room, Monkey Business, Quicksand Jesus, Here I Am, Piece of Me, Rattlesnake Shake, Slave to the Grind, Mudkicker... All great Skid Row songs!!!
Monkey Business 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
the first 2 albums are full of bangers!
I have a particular affection for Get The Fuck Out from Slave to the Grind
@@CroMagJohnson For sure. But if you really have never sat down and listened to the 3rd album Subhuman Race it is actually pretty freakin' good.

Wasted Time is a must listen...all the above too
I saw skid row live back in the late 80's . They opened for Bon Jovi . Let me tell you that concert was LIT !
I saw that concert in Biloxi, MS. It was great! Sebastian Bach ripped the back side of his tight leather pants… the entire seam and kept on singing…. After showing the audience of course 😂.
Seen them also but I've seen so many bands it's hard to remember who they were with, Cinderella, Motley crue, etc
I was there too, in the 80's
Flash forward to a concert in Jacksonville, FL, in the mid 2000's, and the openers were Sebastion Bach and Axle Rose.... I want to say it was Disturbed, but that seems incongruous
I saw them in Calgary when they opened for Aerosmith. Will never forget it.
I saw them on that tour, too!
The guy who played Ricky lives down here in Wilmington NC. He said he was paid something like 200$ cash and all the beer he could drink while shooting the video
Nice, my youngest brother lives in Wilmington
Got his ass kicked by his old man
I don't know about now, but Bach used to live not far from me here in NJ
Hey I live in NC. The guy who played Ricky was cute as hell!!
He use to live in CA.
That voice! Those cheekbones! That hair!
I used to be in a little bit of disbelief that, as a teenage girl, I wished to have the hair of Sebastian Bach 😂 Great reaction 🤘
He was my first crush, geez he was gorgeous 😍😍
We all wanted his hair and him too lol, dream lovee
@@MrsCiCiloveslifewe all had the hits for him ❤️
Skidrow's song WASTED TIME. Hits very very hard, especially when you know what it's about and anyone that has watched someone fall to addiction can identify with it.
He did do a reaction to this. I think it was ~a month ago when it went live on the channel.
Wasted Time is a master-piece
Their best IMO….
The song is about Sebastian Bach’s friend Steven Adler, Guns and Roses drummer.
One of the best songs out there. Sebastian really has the most angelic voice. ❤
First time caller here! I just saw Sebastian Bach last week and was COMPLETELY enamored ❤ He looks amazing for his age and sounds EXACTLY the same as his videos!! His son is the drummer for him
WHAT??? Unfortunately, his voice has faltered! Age, sex, drugs & rock can & will do that to ya!
True! Where did you see him? I saw him in Santa Ana, CA.
His new cd is soooo good!
@@jennac303his new cd is so good
Best line .... "That child blew a child away" always gets me, that's the heart of this whole song...
Skid Row Amazing band Sebastian Bach GREAT VOICE.......
Now you need to react to Skid Rows (Youth Gone Wild) and (Monkey Business), these two songs will blow you away with how good they are with his voice.
Youth Gone Wild made me fall in love with Skid Row. :)
Gotta check out Fly to the Angels by Slaughter... Mark Slaughter's vocals slay and the story is beautiful. Pretty sure you will like it since you enjoyed I Remember You.
This is a MUST!!!!
Also Steelheart
Steelheart I'll Never Let You Go
Definitely to both !! ❤🎉
Bach and Axel both had very unique, vocal ranges that kinda sucked you in and gave you chills😂❤ very versatile.
Normal Music for an 56 years old Metalhead like me with still long hair , Greeting from Berlin - Germany
Oh, Sebastian has an amazing voice....
This album played on repeat my junior high years!!

I watched MTV 's very first show..the birth of MTV
Dude in a darkened room is amazing
Saddest song ever written
What an incredible voice!
Not one word about his amazing vocals ?... Crazy
He has other videos of SR where he loses his marbles over Bach’s voice.
He did that on I Will Remember You.... which is the best one to start with in terms of hearing Bach's voice. BP had the appropriate stunned reaction. 😂
“This is like watching Skid Row’s version of Boyz N The Hood.” Dude, you friggin’ nailed it once again! ❤❤❤❤❤
I remeber when I heard this the first time back in 89, that scream of "That child blew a child away* made me tear up. Sebastian's vocals were amazing!T oday Ricky would be 53 and 35 into a life sentence (apparently got denied parol a few times).

Skid Row opened for Motley Crue in Oct 89, in Essen Germany. My then bf, now my husband, took me for my birthday.
Now to their first hit 'Youth Gone Wild' 🤘🤘

A child blew a child away….my favorite line in the song.
That beautiful powerful voice, the hair, the looks…Sebastian had it all! Love Skid Row!
He had a huge self-control issue and was arrested on more than one occasion... once while on stage! Fans thought it was a stunt until he didn't return.
The band eventually fired him because they couldn't depend on him, and he brought drama everywhere.
Physically and musically, he had all of God's gifts. If he'd had insight into his own psyche, he would have been every 80s girl's dream.
I'm so happy you reacted to 18 and life...my all time favorite song.
Yo 40... Totally digging the skid row I saw him when I was a kid and they blew me the f*** away
The music was phenominal! He sang with so much emotion! Dude was on his knees. Skid Row was never the same without Sebastain Bach! You should checkout Jainie's got a gun by Aerosmith
If you ever watch Pearl Jam - Jeremy (the unedited video) be prepared because it is a true story. The singer Eddie Vedder read about it and the band wrote a song about it. The end of the video was a result of bullying.

Not entirely true. The boy that blew his own head off wasn't a delinquent like on the music video. He did this to himself because a girl broke his heart. He was a gentle soul and Pearl Jam were sued because of defamation.
Try out "Janie's Got A Gun" by Aerosmith for a story you won't forget.
In the 80s we loved a loud story about a fictional anti-hero
This song was one of the top jams of my teen years. And I’ll be 47 years old in less than six moths. To me this track went hard, and I still love it to this day.
Now Youth Gone Wild
Ricky got a life sentence.He was eighteen years old
Aww the 80s Hair Bands!! Fukin fire🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's called the 80's!! Hair Bands!! Great voices and beautiful hair and Men❤️❤️ love Sebastian Bach❤️

Thank you for what you do
"Boys in the trailer park." Perfect description haha. Those guys were going crazy back then. This has always been one of the hardest rock songs to me.
Hell yeah,, Finally. Try some CINDERELLA also
Rock music in the height 70s and 80s and early 90s was all about the story
Dude....Youth Gone Wild, Quicksand Jesus, Monkey Business, In a Darkened Room........you need to hear these tracks....this band was WAY under appreciated....
TY BP for understanding the rules of gun safety. Never aim at a target, unless you intend to hit that target. Stay safe fam.
This has always been my jam, for multiple reasons.
Btw if you haven’t watched him live at Wembley Stadium 91, singing I remember you ,it is a must watch and it is amazing
SABASTIAN BACH is ONE of the greatest voices in rock. I STILL have this cassette!! Great band!
Back then a lot of videos and the music always stood fir something I believe that came out when it was really bad with teens drinking and driving and drugs basically they were trying to reach out to the teens in classic rock just TLC this was how they would reach out for awareness on stuff like that
I miss this era of MTV....this was a heavy song at the time, and still stood the test of time. I have played this entire song, Lead guitar part, and it was brilliant, he wrote a seering solo that is not heard too often. I Miss the Old Skid Row.
Many of us GenXers had Boomer parents who pushed us around just like Ricky’s dad. We all didn’t choose that path but some did
Song gives you chills!
You should check out Youth Gone Wild, Slave to the Grind and Monkey Business. All are Bangers.
I love this song! I love Skid Row for creating this song. These songs are so important and it is so many youth's stories.. breaks my heart. Thank you BP.
This song plays on repeat for days after i hear from my nephew currently doing life in Helene Georgia. He was 19 when convicted and the instant i found out this song started up in my head.
That's their best song and their biggest hit. They were huge in the late 80s.
Their first hit off their first album... IMPRESSIVE!! 🔥🤘🏽🔥🤘🏽

This is their best song, would love to see you review Firehouse
Firehouse is my All-time favorite band, it is still so hard to believe CJ is gone...but Never Forgotten.
@@mallardtheduck406 agreed, I used to play them over and over again. They have always been fantastic.
Home is where the heart is a slam banger by them
He stole the gun when he broke into someone's house. It wasn't his dad's gun. Still one of my favorite videos.
6:06 looks like a picture of dad and Ricky.
Not Uncle Tom's Cabin? Also crazy.
@@labbatopaul1925 👍
OOOOOO I have been waiting on you to do this reaction! Absolutely one of my faves of this album. Which the entire album is awesome! Wasted Time and Slave to the Grind are great songs my Skid Row also.
I grew up with this music. All hair bands of that time.Sebastian always stood out. Amazing range. Argument within the band, Sebastian got no say -he left. He took that amazing voice with him. As for his replacement- Ive never one listened to him. He can't be replaced, like Journey and Steve Perry.
I've always loved Skid Row videos. They tell the story so well.
The days of nose ring connected to earring!!!! Rock on 80’s MONSTERS OF ROCK
The underlying familiarity is the 80's and 90's sound. It's what makes it the best generation of music. Not genre, but generation.
You absolutely MUST DO "WASTED TIME" by Skid row, DEEEEP song and 1 of their best. Sebastian's Vocals are 🔥🔥🔥
The cult "fire woman " or "painted on my heart" from the movie gone in 60 seconds
" YOUTH GONE WILD " is a MUST !!! 💛👍
One of there best next listen should be Youth Gone Wild!
This song still hits hard after watching this for so my years!!! He's amazing love him and this video!
I'm glad you did this video. I've been hoping you would
By the way.yourreqction are my absolute favorite . I'm hooked
He has an amazing voice
Youd'd think some Hip Hop artist/rapper would have sampled this or remixed it by now....I'm an old white lady and I know it would be awesome! :)
Good song, good band. When they started out. Talking about getting out of school and going into life.... On your own with no help . Check out .. I Remember You, ia one their best. He could sing.. Reminds me of the Merle haggard song, ,, Mama Tried... And Johnny Paycheck,,,The only Hell my Mama ever Raised... Great song
Once you pull the trigger you can't recall the bullet. Love that song!
I was born in ‘82…. Skid Row the first tape I bought in 88 ❤
That was the music then baby! 80’s glam/big hair bands rule and always will!
If you like this, one of the bands at this time was Warrant I love Jani`s voice and if you like story telling try Uncle Tom`s Cabin,Heaven,or I saw red
2 other amazing Skid Row songs...
"Qiucksand Jesus" or
"In a darkened Room"
You won't be disappointed.
Love this band, and definitely check out more Skid Row.

He fired his six-shot to the wind
That child blew a child away ....."
Sebastian Bach is one of the great vocalists ever. Milijenko Matijevic is another one, so please try Steelheart, his band.
He has done a reaction to Steelheart a while back.
Agreed, so is Michael Sweet of Stryper.
@@pcooper3559 Sorry. I missed that one.
I remember you is probably my favorite skid row song (mostly because of a connection with a girl I had a massive crush on around the time the song came out when I was in highschool😂) decades in the past, but it’s funny how those mental connections never go away
I just stumbled onto your page...and I am hooked. You are by far the best reaction person....because, you actually listen to the words, most don't. So now I am just going through your videos.
Man i was wondering when you were gonna do some more Skidrow. 😎😎😎😎😎
Lyrically, a hard and daunting song to listen to. The lost youth of America is still so evident today.
As a SR and Bach lover and fan, i will always crush hard when i see Sebastian in video or live. My husband has accepted this about me. ❤
A++ brother!
For an awesome power ballad, check out Steelheart's " I'll Never Let You Go". Singer Miljenko has an awesome high range voice. He did the singing for Mark Wahlberg in the movie "Rockstar"
One of the best power ballads of the 80's. Such a great song! Huge hit for them. Bach has some of the best chops in music. "Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins poured gasoline, it kept his motor running, but it never kept him clean". A great line! Skid Row wrote some amazing songs, many of which were unlike the other artists of the genre who were sining about sex, drugs & rock n roll. Skid Row had a lot to say and messages to get across. Good stuff!
