Fun Fact: this music video was directed by David Fincher. Yes, THAT David Fincher.
Before he became a famous Hollywood director, he was a success ful music video director/ producer.
Interesting
@@heatherholman4834 Fincher also directed that iconic music video for George Michael's ''Freedom'', with all the super models in it. Oh and another fun fact: Michael Bay, started his career in Fincher's music video production company as well. He directed videos for Meat Loaf among other things and speaks very highly of his time, working for Fincher.
So the guy who made alien 3 and seven also directed this video??
Yes. @@jimmurray9204
@@jimmurray9204 He also directed Judith by A Perfect Circle...
Winner of 2 MTV Video Music Awards 1990: "Best Metal/Hard Rock Video" and "Viewers Choice Award".
Dear God I'm OLD!!!! I was 36 when this song came out and ppl still watched MTV. Hell I'm so old I watched the premiere of MTV lol
@@FrederickBamber-od2fp71 isn't old, sir. Stay youthful.
David Fincher's work
This song stinks more than the liquid that leaks out of garbage trucks.
Parceque MTV n’accepte pas la vraie musique, sincèrement j’ai trouvé ce morceau ridiculement ennuyeux
I miss the 90´s when music videos were like micro movie blockbusters with a kick-ass soundtrack.
They had to be because of thriller
Miss Headbanger`s Ball And Vanessa Warwick and 80-90`s
@rogernordseth8060 yea
Bruce Fairbairn took this guys and this album to a timeless masterpice.... Pump is their best album
Yes the video is a another Fincher masterpiece too and 89 is when the Menendez brothers killed their record producer daddy just FYI.

Yes the video is a another Fincher masterpiece too and '89 is when the Menendez brothers killed their rapist record producer daddy just FYI and context.
@@annalisavajda252yeah OK. The menendez brothers? Lol. Of all the things to bring up, as if it was some kind of cultural highlight of the year.
Pump is definitely their best album and the first CD I ever owned as an 11 year old girl
2:49, when they make the guitar riffs sound like the oncoming sirens of a cop car or ambulance. Sheer genius.
Tru
Holy shit! That's why it's so chaotic and my mind says i don't like this part. I'm not good at interpreting things, thank you for clearing that up for me!
The intro sounds like Law and Order
They don’t sound like fucking sirens at all
wow
The line 'She said cuz nobody believes me' always makes me tear up
Yes...... I must admit, I just played this song today after many, many years, and that part got me.i had to wipe my eyes.
It just made me as well.
Victim blaming happens way to often!
@@nickosmond9561yup and making us feel like it's our fault if we wouldn't have done this.. he wouldn't have done that 🤬.. it's a disgusting shame and I'm sure it happens everyday unfortunately 😞
I relate to that verse 😢 nobody believed I was SA by sex traffickers and then I had a rape test done and then everyone wanted to believe me
This song was written by Steven Tyler and bassist Tom Hamilton, video directed by David Fincher, influenced by an article in Newsweek about children being abused in affluent suburbs. The music video, in 1989, was ground breaking at the time, impassioned and skillful. Steven Tyler's fantastic raspy vocals hit the right balance between sympathy and righteous anger. And Joe Perry, as the rest of the band, excellent as usual. The taboo subject, child abuse, infrequently covered before by a top tier band (exception of Benetar with Hell is for Children in 1980) was certainly done justice. Much needed, and long time in coming.
Fincher was the master at music videos. Every one a masterpiece, and so well edited, lit, etc....
This is a hard truth, but if anyone has had a child who was abused, or relative, or was abused as a child, and the perpetrator got away and unpunished (as they often do) this song seems to give a vicarious retribution to the caregivers/relatives of the harmed, the victims, which is something they have until justice, someday may be delivered. And of course, the Lord, who says "Vengeance is mine, I will repay'.
@@annablyst6754 Agreed.
@@bridgetm4711
Many believe in the vengeance belongs to the lord thing.
Which is fine by me because if anyone ever messed with my kids I'd arrange their meeting with him ASAP.
"Only your god can judge you I'm just here to arrange the meeting" would be the last thing they'd ever hear.
@@dpz9872 I hear ya DP Z, loud and clear.
Still listening and loving Aerosmith in 2024
ME TOOO!!! 😎😎😎
The way the opening sounds express the pain and confusion of abuse is just genius.
Sounds like finger nails on a chalkboard.
@@annalisavajda252It's actually fingers on the rims of drinking glasses.
@@annalisavajda252 It sounds similar to part of the Matrix music/sounds
Song still gives me chills
the parody of this song still gives me chills
@@coreymakesmusic9691 what parody
Gente essa banda é maravilhosa principalmente as músicas que ela canta seja as antigas e agora as recentes eles ainda tiveram o grupo olha gente essa música eu não enjoo de ouvir ela tem vez que eu coloco ela e fico o dia todinho só fazendo o serviço de casa ouvindo ela significa meu amor que eu curto rock e muito significa a pessoa que gosta de rock ela não esquece gente nem no passado nem no presente nem no futuro sabe por quê a cada dia a um a um músico tocando uma música diferente a cada rádio tocando também uma música diferente significa cada banda cada equipe cada conjunto é uma saída de música nova isso é para todos nós ouvirmos e dançarmos
I know
Why does he bring you back to those days?
Here's a funny story about this song. I was in line at the DMV & they were playing a lot of my generations great music. Even the guard was getting into it. When I got to the front of the line by the guard, he told me his funny story. He saw a kid who was coming in for his very DL wearing an Aerosmith t-shirt. The guard said "Janie's got a gun". The kid said "WHERE?!". So he had to explain that it was a big hit for Aerosmith. He said "who?". "You're wearing their logo. Don't you even know who they are?" The kid said, "No. My Mom & Dad went to Vegas to see some concerts of old music (yeah, he said OLD music!) & all they brought me was this t-shirt." "So why are you wearing it if you don't even know who they are?" "Because it was the only clean shirt I could find". Then everyone in line cracked up! The DMV actually made everything very easy for me that day. The next day, I brought the whole staff a big platter of cookies as a thank you. The guard was already on a break so I asked a woman if she'd bring him a couple. She asked if he'd know my name & I said "Just tell him "Janie's Got A Gun. He'll know!" So she went in the back & less than 30 seconds later, I could hear him laughing loudly. Sometimes in life, it's those small shared moments that can really make you feel good about life.
Love It 😊

Yes this is good song but it's so sad girls have to grow up with this crab from dads
this is a classical rock song that will make a long-lasting impression even in 2021..
Here in 2024 ( April 27th).
classic rock? this was new when i was a kid
Holy shit this song is so deep as an adult
I was just thinking the same thing 👀
This song has probably one of the greatest vocal bridges ever written
It's awesome and I do adore this song very much. It's helped me survive. But now I'll listen to Take On Me by Ah-ha, and then Elvis ✨

I hope to contribute to justice of these men who abuse women. Thank you Steven Tyler for your advocation in this matter.
Women also abuse men
And the women who abuse men and other women?
That's a red Herring you disingenuous price of *
It breaks my heart in a million pieces that there are children out there who experience this living hell of a life. I've never experienced this type of abuse, but it hurts my heart and fills me with indescribable rage, just knowing that it could be anyone. Aerosmith has been my favourite group since I can remember, because they make the greatest music and also because they have heart, and they use their gift of music to advocate for the voiceless. I'm not sure if this will be read, because it's been a year, but if it is, God bless you guys and thank you so much for your fantastic music and the joy it brings. No other group makes music with heart like this.
Already we knew where the Godsmack took out the inspiration for music vodoo
Oh yeah while Tyler had a relationship with a 14 year old.pleez.
Errors. Little mistakes @@hays9008
❤❤❤
@@hays9008This song wins a grammy for hypocrisy.
In my youth I found the intro of this song ("The Water Song") frightening, as it lead into the steady chanting lyrics of "... What have you done?" It is perfectly bookended by the harmonies which leads the listener out of the song ("Honey, honey, what's the problem..."), leaving you with an uncomfortable feeling in the pit of your stomach. The marriage of the song and the music video was brilliantly done, especially during the chorus of "Run away...", with its "Psycho"-esque violin stabs punctuating the image of Janie running through oncoming traffic. This was one of the more powerful uses of this early medium of storytelling, and it has withstood for over 30 years. Thank you, Aerosmith.
Lesley Ann Warren was amazing in the little screen time she had here. From 1:56 to 2:08 shows just how much of a powerful and underrated actress she really is.
+FaytLinegod Right on...
thought she is sigourney weaver when this video debuted. lol
Do you know the other actors on the video?
+FaytLinegod "what did her daddy do" is this song about incest?????
+Wild Days of Noir Inspired by Jane Lane's Mind the song is about a little girl getting raped by her Dad, and then she kills him when she gets older.
The work with light and shadow in this video is awesome! David Fincher is a genius....
Aerosmith definitely deserved the Grammy they got for this musical piece
They deserve more than that. They have to recieve the Great Honor of the Planet. A Nobel prize!
Edit : Cultural Nobel prize.
Loved this song in high school. Now I'm really listening to the lyrics years later. What a masterpiece.
El nivel de voz de Steven Tyler en este tema no tiene nombre. Burning and sparkling everywhere! ❤️🔥
NOSTALGIA MARAVILHOSA!!!! ANOS 90 !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you STEVEN TYLER for founding Janie's House, a shelter for abused girls and women. :-)
Robin, ABSOLUTELY!!!
Anything for men?
yeh, odd how he got custody of a 16 y old when he was in his late 20s, did drugs w her, got her pregnant, pressured her to have his baby, forced her to then have an abortion she didn't want after a suspicious fire was lit in her apartment.
Matt Laugle no because Janie’s house is for women and has been for several decades
I saved all the puppies at plumbsteads house, she was going to kill them all so I stole them and run. Rip the kids that one maybe did this to my friend
Such a beautifully chaotic guitar solo, absolutely perfect for the song. This song and video are masterpieces.
I've always liked how the guitar emulates the sound of police sirens for a couple of seconds during the beginning of the solo.
@@jonesm1975 Strangely enough, Joe Perry wrote the solo on an acoustic guitar.
It still blows me away how the drums are not just part of the "sound" of the song like a normal song. they are both telling the story and PART of the story. the delicate accent in the cock of the hammer, the loud percussive SNAP of the drums to mimic the sound of the shot, and finally the soft "click" of the hammer fall on an empty chamber. To this day i believe it to be the greatest use of drums to tell a story ever.
Shot..what went wrong from my pov unsuccessful
Thank you for making me aware of this.
@@PreciousPotat not a problem. :)
@@darkvisiongothacked are you dating an emo girl
I had to listen to the song again with this in mind, I’m glad you pointed it out.
Run away run away from the pain
A lot of girls (and boys) have gone through what Janie went through. Sad but awesome song
Yes I feel bad for anyone that has been abused as a child at least I know I'm not the only one

Always been so glad Aerosmith wrote this song. So many people find themselves in terrible situations (not only child molestation) which are not of their making. Many have no voice, or are not believed when they speak out. Artists & celebrities are in a unique position to be able to speak for those who are overlooked & ignored. They're able to shine a spotlight on harmful behaviors often hidden in the dark. Many thanks to Aerosmith, & especially Mr. Steven Tyler, for his "Janey's House" program. God bless you, guys, & those whom you help.
Yeah he put his money where his mouth is was not virtue signalling.
@@annalisavajda252 Virtuous Steven's not - kind & generous he is. Thanks for your comment.
Love the music
Yeah, terrible situations like the 14-year-old girl went through when Steven trafficked her.
@@FarmersAreDummies Julia Holcomb was 16 yrs. old when Tyler had his relationship with her in 1975. I make no excuses for his subsequent behavior toward her, & the fact that she was considered a minor at the time, legal age of consent being 17 yrs. old. I will submit that 47 yrs. ago, cultural mores & attitudes were not the same as they are today. Even today, a minor can be legally married with parental or guardian consent. Tyler has always been wild, but I suggest that his establishment of all the "Janie's Houses" is his outward recognition of his faults, & an attempt to atone for them. There is no doubt the Houses provide care & support for thousands of young people today.
This was the song back in 1989 I love this track
My dad introduced me to all the hard rock bands he liked when I was a kid. In 2010 and now I'm proud to be listening to hard rock and roll music
My favourite song from them ever. ‘Janie’s last IOU’, lyrics are so impactful.
Top 5 favorite Aerosmith songs!❤️
O M G ! This song is like a missing part of me... I swear to you people, it was 1990, and in my mind, I wanted to know where this song came from, how to get it, et cetera. Here we are in 2023 and I havent forgotten.
I also know why I felt I need a gun when I turned 18... Too funny...
My favourite Aerosmith song, so dark and the music is awesome! The gunshot drums are on point!
I drive for a living and the song came back in to mind.....now I play ▶️ it 11 on the volume.....great song with dark subject.

@@allentoyokawa9068 *favourite in the UK and Canada.
when people argue over great bands Aerosmith is always overlooked, great guitar work and a fantanstic frontman
Hebrews4forme as long as Alice Cooper is in your top 10 somewhere I agree with you.
Aerosmith is definetly in my top 10
Hebrews4forme Bon Jovi all day and night.
They're not overlooked.They are one of my favorite bands and they've been in the music business almost 50 years.Of course they are one of the best bands.
Not only a kick arse song with magical keyboards by ST but a very very heavy subject that I am glad they brought to the front. Best memories around this album.
2025 This was my dad’s second favorite band aside from Metallica well my father got laced with fentanyl and passed away back in 17. The music is the only memories I have with my dad. No pictures no videos. I’m 24 now and it’s been 8 years in April 1st my dad has been gone. 🙁 my dad would be 51 nov 9
This song really hits home for those of us that were abused by those that should have protected us. This song in a way saved me and gave me piece, as Janie did what I longed to do, but couldn't. I think this was their goal with this song, to let the abused know there's light at the end of the tunnel, not to go out and off your parents
Agree. Don’t forget who’s singing this though…
Excellent 👌
🙏🏼
Damn I'm really sorry you had to go through that. I'm hoping that song helps you at the time was your release and your way out of your pain by listening to music when you were being abused or neglected by your parents
Pokedex entry 132: ditto. I'm glad a fellow survivor is here, standing strong
Top class rock act. The theme and lyrics are powerful but let´s not forget that the orchestration in this song is out of this world. I remember when it came out I was blown away but the intricate guitar parts, the stumping drums, and vocal crescendos. It still remains a great piece of rock music.
My y
I totally agree with you
...except for that extremely shitty guitar solo
I never knew?
Not to mention those stabs of strings throughout the song that really grab your ears' attention
The detective doesn't get enough credit in this story. He successfully puts together just what happened, and upon seeing Janie, rather than treat her like a criminal and force her into handcuffs, further traumatizing an already deeply shocked young girl, he puts a blanket on her shoulders and helps her to his wagon. I wish more cops were like that.
They're everywhere. You just don't hear about them on the news.
Most cops are like that.
Don't judge one bad experience with all the good cops out there working in the worst conditions. Hey the brothers in Blue are always there...forget the one offs.
However he went home to his wife, kids, home, and middle America life. Everyone moves on. And when all you've ever known is the fake world of a wacho. Jamie ended up alone on a unhabitabled planet. Thanks for the blanket
no cap
Man, I'm sitting here wiping my eyes...I haven't heard this song in a long time, and it randomly popped up in my mind today, and I didn't know it was Steven's birthday. Happy Birthday to him, may GOD bless and keep him in the name of JESUS CHRIST.
This never impacted me before, it just sounded great; but the message really got me today. I don't think Steven is with the gate keepers, the Pizzagate gang wouldn't like a song like this. I pray for Aerosmith anyways, that The GOOD LORD take them away to His Kingdom of Heaven, in the name of JESUS CHRIST.
I never realized what this song was about until I read the lyrics. Wow. Cheers to Aerosmith for tackling a hard subject that needs to be paid attention to, especially today with all the stories hitting the news about abuse.
have you french heritage or is my imagination sister?
Jillian Andrei you must not grown up in the MTV are you had a song was big and it is about raped and molestation and Aerosmith is a kick-ass band
You know the songs over 20 years old
I too never thought about this song and the meaning behind it.

1989. This song has really stood the test of time. Thank you, Aerosmith
The pump album and dr feelgood were my two most played and loved albums as a kid from my age of 7 to 10.
By the way this song is about a daughter who got abused as a child by her dad and gets revenge on him by shooting him.
Edit: grammar/spelling mistakes fixed.
thanks Doctor obvious :)
hahahaha
+Justin Tuck What's so funny
exactly the way it should be
Murdering the abuser doesn't make things right. It might make the victim feel better, but it isn't right.
My father used me several times in the ways a husband should only do with his wife(my mother). I am in my 50’s now, and I am married, but still feel so dirty. I am so thankful that Jesus loves me and will never stop😊. Jesus understands how I feel and HE does not want me to feel dirty, but I am slow to let go of feeling dirty in HIS eyes, yet HE has, and never will forsake me as many others have. In Jesus eyes I am not dirty/filthy, it is only me that feels dirty/filthy. I always remember this: Jesus Christ has never done anything to me, Jesus Christ has done everything FOR me. My father WILL stand before The Lord and give an account for his CHOICES, he has gotten away with nothing.
Amen! thelord wil ldeal with him!
Same...
Do you think you could pray for me too? Ask God to give me what he has given to you. I was hurt too. I don’t want to be damaged anymore. Since it happened, there hasn’t been a day that I haven’t felt broken. I haven’t lived, I have existed and I’d really like to live now. Thank you for sharing.
I M so sorry to hear This 😢😢😢😢 GOD bless Amen 🙏❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Never feel ashamed for something that is not your fault! Jesus sees all and is always with you! God Bless you! Rev. J ❤
31 year old song, directed by David Fincher, and still potent as ever.
Fincher only makes all the sense.
Easily the best of the director's who started out by directing music videos. The bullet zoom out scene towards the end is stunning.
My father's good friend was a director and Fincher's first employer-- back when he was a PA and such-- I asked what he was like, and he said he 'knew more than I did in about 6months'. I believe it, he has a real hunger for details, and it always shows!
@@fromthehaven94 It's like a super early precursor to the Fight Club opening credits.
25 years later I realize I was too young to appreciate how wonderful this band was. From the difficult topics they brought into light, the music being masterpieces. Not even wanting to compare what we are listening nowadays.
Anyone else here because they like Aerosmith and it has nothing to do with a movie or another youtube video?
ME!
meeeeeee
fuck yes!
Hell ya!
Yes
The “what did her Daddy do?!” line always gives me chills. Poor Janie.
@@raealene865 I know why you're schocked. Americans can't be that logic!

It's 2023 and I'm still listening.
TIMELESS CLASSIC!!!!!

I have watched this music video more than 100 times.
I memorized each lyric of this song.
It hurts to know what Janie had been through.
And still there are another Janie suffering in PAIN.
...
The pain of what I went through will never go away.
Sorry buddy ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So sorry to hear about your incident 🙏🥲
I’m really sorry
No it won't and it sucks
It won't but it'll pass
This song brought the issue of sex abuse to the forefront when I was younger. It helped me feel less alone too. Im glad this song came out and really at the time caused others to see a problem that used to be swept under the rug. Later they opened Janies House for abused kids.
I love this song. I can relate.
I hate the fact that abuse is still swept under the rug and it's a common thing too
I cant relate, But I can't imagine how terrible it was I'm so sorry.
I can't relate. The worst thing about my parents was that they were negative people. But they tried. It wasn't a constant thing. But you remember when they say they'll have to see my graduate from high school to believe it. And to those who truly suffered, I'm so sorry, I wish I could hug all of you.
Yes, but song is judging people who committed sex abuse and they maybe have mental health problems LoL
It's 2018 and still listening to this!
I get chills song at part where Tyler drops his mic to the side then Joe Perry just blasts his guitar after that...about 2:45...Damn!
Powerful song!
Grease sound track
Holy shit
Im listening to this in my car right now and just said to myself how this song beings chills up my spine. then read your comment right after lol
The whole song is still giving me the chills..
As a detective who fights child abuse and Aerosmith fan since... well, since EVER, I admire Steven more and more. Such a great iniciative to start a foundation to suport abused women!
I 100% agree
Jamie was a boy, douche... But homosexsual incest is more than americans can stand. Thats why he changed it from Jamie to Janie... Shame on you...
He opened up a second place for abused children and women just recently
I never knew that, but I’m glad to know that. Maybe they can get all the help they need.
Well said Detective Rita Silva with such passion and honesty. I am also passionate about this subject being a tremendous lover of women all my life. I want to help too. Sign me up Detective. Beautiful just beautiful.

Killer song

What a voice
I loved this song even for it's subject matter and dark content. To me it's one Aerosmith's best songs.
It is even though
Let me tell you something, I fell in love with this song as a kid, to this day, I still love this song
This was one of the very biggest hits from the summer when I graduated high school. My brother and I shared a 1985 chevy cavalier, and I installed a Sony AM/FM with a caseete in it, along with a set of pionerr 3 way 6x9's in the back, and a set of Sony 4 inch tweeters in the front. Let me tell you, my 17 year old ears were very sharp, and this speaker system SCREAMED in this cheap old car.
me too lol
I remember sitting in my 1984 chevy cavaier, with a set of 3 way sony 6x9 and a set of 4 inch dash speakers. That sony 25watt am/fm cassette player was really kickin,...my mom, beeing the narcissisic bitch that she was, was screaming that I was ruining my ears. I dd not give a shit, this was cool.
Same Thing here lol
Same here. My babysitter took me to her girlfriends house and they had this album on heavy rotation at that time.
This is one of the few old school artists still putting out music and that's a good thing. Like Mick Jagger Steven Tyler will never retire. Rock legends continue on
A masterpiece of true rock genius music ❤
Amazing Aerosmith song, never gets old. April 2021 🖤

@@Blueluise yeah she did do a version of it. Good too
Can we all take a moment to appreciate Joe Perry's guitar playing in this song. It's incredible!
That will be difficult. Because in many songs, it is always friggin incredible.
Jesus Christ, the amount of genuine sincere just overall power he puts into these vocals is absolutely mind boggling to me. He puts every breath and every single thing he has into his vocals. That’s what makes him hands down top 10 best vocalists in the rock world.
@Facts , Oh yeah 100%, I only put top 5 because I know people get super protective and butt hurt about opinions involving music. But yes definitely top 5, and yeah Aerosmith is an incredible band and they’ve reached goals some rock bands couldn’t. They have achieved so much and they are definitely one of the most infamous rock bands. Besides you know Motley Crue, Van Halen, those bands. And whoa really? I didn’t know he had a girlfriend that’s 43, and I also didn’t know he was 73! Geez man that’s crazy, he definitely doesn’t look or act 73!
@Facts , What the heck haha, wow that’s crazy! And seriously? Motley Crue’s my favorite band! That’s pretty gnarly, I’m going to see the Motley Crue tour next year actually.
The Jesus 😂😂😂😂 anacronist
Janie’s Dad in this video is brothers with Christopher Guest (Spinal Tap)

This song and video has haunted me since I was a child. This is one of the first of its kind to address such a serious topic. I love that they depicted a rich white family
I, personally, with legitimate evidence to support my thesis, believe that Janie is, in fact, in possession of a firearm.

I hope you are safe now.
The fact that Aerosmith had the stones to "break bad" and address a very painful issue is just further testiment to how great a group they are... Rock on!

From 4:58 till the end the song always gives me chills.
Same!!!!!!
One of my favorite Aerosmith songs
is good, listen to "Jesus is on the mainline" too, sister
This song got me through my teens after years of sexual abuse. 🤜🤛 to everyone that's survived childhood trauma
Much peace and healing to you darlin.❤️
🙏❤️
Needed to hear this. I am a survivor of all forms of abuse, at the hands of both parents. Though violence begets violence, this dog's day has just begun....
I m Sorry for u
too bad tyler is a pedophile himself, really ruins the song for me.
Amazing to see all the people still listening...
This song is so nostalgic. It's so distinct.
Hands down, the best song in Aerosmith's repertoire, and I'll be bloody damned if this isn't one of the best music videos ever made!
Otherwise, this video is anything but well edited. Total confusion...
i would say that this is a very good music video, but its not one of the bests. imo, the best is GNR"s "November Rain", but I can see y u like this mv so much
It's David Fincher btw
David Fincher directed it.
Not that great of a song and video when compared a classic like “Dude Looks Like A Lady”.
Fun fact: David Fincher directed this music video.
He's come a long way since then.
Ohh..amazing fact..Guess these vids wr signs off future gr8 works tht wr to come.

I spent my teen years in the 1990s, and its songs like this that im glad i grew up when i did. I heard awesome songs in my era of growing up, and witnessed some awesome videos to go with them as well. I can honestly say that when this song first came out, there was alot of debate about its message, and even some controversy over it because of it. Im glad songs like this pushed the envelope and got people talking about things that wouldn't have if it wasnt around ❤
One of the greatest guitar solos of all time!
At first listen this song seems simple yet when you really listen to it it’s truly one of the most well written emotional songs in history - what a fucking masterpiece
Multiple replays every time this song comes up for me.
I do appreciate this guy. His voice and moves. Legend Steven Tyler!
My story. I still shake through this video.
That song is a masterpiece from start to finish.
Aerosmith still rules in 2023
Dude it’s way ahead of times and still is
2024

Even the video is great, so many times a video is not as good as the song
Still listening to this classic in 2020
I'm 13yrs clean now. But in my active addiction me & the girls I used with would blast this & drive down a windy road non stop.. they said I was Janie. Replacing her name with mine. Growing up molested non stop, never having a voice. Somehow this song gave me what a needed, freedom for those however many minutes.
A lot more I could say
.. but God Bless You Janie!
You Are A Hero!!❤💜💜
I'm not sure, perhaps AS emancipated a young women from her familys abuse? ❤❤❤This song resonates with me, I hope he was a savior too the young women he sings of! Either way this song has so much meaning to so many! Music fulfills the soul and eases the mind!❤
Dum-dum-dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum-dum-dum, it's the sound of my gun
Dum-dum-dum, honey, what have you done?
Dum-dum-dum, it's the sound
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Janie got a gun
Janie got a gun
Whole world's come undone
From looking straight at the Sun
What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
They said when Janie was arrested
They found him underneath a train
But, man, he had it coming
Now that Janie's got a gun
She ain't never gonna be the same
Janie got a gun
Janie got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Tell me now it's untrue
What did her daddy do?
He jacked a little bitty baby
The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under
The lightning and the thunder
Knew that someone had to stop the rain
Run away
Run away from the pain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away
Run away from the pain, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away
Janie got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
What did her daddy do?
It's Janie's last IOU
She had to take him down easy
And put a bullet in his brain
She said: 'Cause nobody believes me
The man was such a sleaze
He ain't never gonna be the same
Run away
Run away from the pain, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away from the pain, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away
Janie's got a gun
Janie got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Now everybody is on the run
Janie got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run (honey, honey, what's the problem?)
'Cause Janie got a gun (tell me it ain't right)
Janie got a gun (was it daddy's cradle robbing that)
Her dog day's just begun (made you scream at night?)
Now everybody is on the run
Janie got a gun
Janie got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
It took a lot of stone's to write a song about something that (unfortunately) happens every day,
But no one wants to talk about 🤗
I thank God for Aerosmith- Thank you for acknowledging my pain 🥰
First time I heard this song,I cried and cried tears of relief,acknowledgement.Thank you Aerosmith,can you come get my Dad now/
One of many reasons Aerosmith are legends.
