Gen Xer here…this song was released when I was in Grade 10, I believe, and I loved it then. Now, the nostalgia I feel when I hear it, takes me back to school dances and driving around with boys in pick-up trucks, a bunch of young puppy love in the air!!! I love how this song ended up on your channel - such a sweet story! I found your channel a couple of months back, AB, and I love your reactions! Thanks for doing this one and sending me down memory lane this Friday evening.❤❤❤❤❤
Bro I was a teenager when this song hit! When you heard this one start up whether it was at a dance or not you grabbed your girl or your guy and got close! The lead singer actually spent a short time as the frontman of Motley Crue. I don’t think you’ll need even 30 seconds into this one before you’re into this one.
It was Van Halen (Van Halen III, specifically). He joined after they fired Sammy Hagar. He lasted one album. That pretty much ended Van Halen as a band.
Wow this goes back a long way. This song sounds like a typical love song but it's actually a baby in love with his mother because she is the only thing that he knows. It's part of a concept album that doesn't get the recognition it deserves.
I've always loved this tune & if you want to see something cool, the comedians Jack Black & Jimmy Fallon redid this song in full costume & set up to look exactly like these two & they sing themselves & it's beautiful. Of curse they manage to get you to chuckle a bit, when they try to make the same facial expressions & hair tossing body language. Even if you watch it privately, check it out. They do a great job & I was surprised how well they both sing.
I believe it's the 25th anniversary of the album, there is a video where Gary and Nuno are trying to perform this song but the crowd sings the song to them. Love their reaction to that.
Check out "Get The Funk Out", "Decadence Dance","Play With Me", "Rise", "Politicalamity", "Rest In Peace" by them as well...awesome guitar by Nuno Bettencourt
These guys could do anything. I have a soft spot for When I first kissed you. But their rock side with Pornograffiti, or or harmonies in Hole Hearted or A Song for Love.
First time I danced with a boy was the 8th grade homecoming dance to this song. I went and bought the single on cassette, yes cassette, and listened to it over and over. It's become a comforting favorite.
aaaaah I made an entire piece of artwork because of that song when I was in art school (because I am that old 🤫) and I remember belting out that song with my roommate in the back of a car while our (serious) boyfriends were driving and they both somewhat soon dumped us - oh lawd nothing makes sense hahahah - props to the line jumper though - good stuff 😍🤣💞
This is definitely one of those favs from back in the day. When I played guitar, I HAD to know how to play this song. It was my favorite for a very long time. Now it’s still up there lol I love that I just saw reactors were looking into it. ❤
I'm so glad you reacted to this song! Beautiful song! You should watch the parody that Jack Black & Jimmy Fallon did on his show a few years back. Priceless! Love your channel! Keep the reactions coming! I've been w/ you since your 1st reaction. You're reaction channel is my fav! Sending much love, light & positive energy. ❤💫👍
Another similar song of theirs was "Wholehearted", but something more typical from them would be "Do you want to play" from the Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure movie soundtrack
Talent, looks and great hair!!! And they can sing too! 😮❤️😮❤️😮. Gary Cherone and Nuno Bettencourt, lead vocals and amazing guitarist. They are actually a hard rock/funk metal band. Gary sang lead for Van Halen for a while before Sammy Hagar. Nuno played guitar for Rhianna tours and Guitar Master tour with Zakk Wylde. But they still appear together as Extreme. Pornograffitti…. Great album.
This is from their early career . They had a long break and after several years they released new stuff. Most of their songs are harder . Suggest from earlier years "Get The Funk Out" From newer stuff "Banshee" and "Rise"
This band is actually still releasing new music. Nuno is a masterclass level guitarist and shows it off in their song "Rise" just released in the last year or so. Word of warning, it's a banger, not an acoustic ballad.
Check out the Voice USA coaches doing this cover - good collaboration of their voices (sorry for the pun)😂 Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, Gwen Stefani, Blake Shelton
The camera pulling back a few times to show the rest of the band lounging around was actually a funny little gag the rest of the band came up with because they werent needed for this song.
LOVE THIS SONG.... sadly, their album isn't really this type of music. Please, y'all correct me if I'm wrong. The words: SHOW ME not just the words. Actions speak truth, js
Another hair band that found their greatest hit in a ballad. Its a good one

Sometimes you have to do something good for someone you don’t know. Life is short. That’s why I did it.
Hands down to you and thanks a lot, hon 😘@@TaraWontTapOut
Hole hearted and play with me are great too, but nothing beats the energy of Fet the Funk Out!!

@@strangeworldsunlimited712 thanks for updating me I could’ve sworn it was the Crue. I must be thinking of someone else.
The middle school banger along with stairway to heaven baby! But a teacher had to be able to put an arm between you! Hahahaha
Omg this is one of my all time fave songs. When this song plays…nothing and nobody else matters. I sing every word and FEEL IT. Man. Good song.
Another similar hit is by Mr Big called "To Be With You"
Wow this goes back a long way. This song sounds like a typical love song but it's actually a baby in love with his mother because she is the only thing that he knows. It's part of a concept album that doesn't get the recognition it deserves.
They are a Rock band. They also performed at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, it's really good.
The guitar player, Nuno Bettencort, did another version of this song with Steven Tyler from Aerosmith. It is worth checking out.
Not really. Steven Tyler could not recall the words. Nuno Bettebcort is awesome
This is one of my favorite songs! ❤️
Some of my best memories involve this song ❤
2 guys + 1 guitar = Awesome!
Absolutely love this song!! Very nostalgic for me! 💝💞
I so love this song!!!❤❤❤ A favorite from younger days!!🔥🔥 Adorable guys with a beautiful song!!!☺️☺️😍😍
Thanks AB!👍👍👍

Can't hear this song without thinking about Jimmy Fallon and Jack Black anymore lol I love when they redid this song!
Same!
This one and Fallon/P. Rudd Go west king of wishful thinking makes me lose it every single time!
Nuno is a beast on the guitar
And he's beautiful
Underrated vocals. Great group
I believe it's the 25th anniversary of the album, there is a video where Gary and Nuno are trying to perform this song but the crowd sings the song to them. Love their reaction to that.
The nostalgia! Take me back to being a kid....I can remember the first time I ever saw this video on MTV.❤❤❤
Extreme’s latest album “SIX” just out about one year ago in 2023 maybe their BEST album!
One of my fav rock balads!!!! ❤
I’ve heard and sang this song 1000 times…EPIC😁
definitely a classic hit that 1, still gets a lot of airplay in Oz
LOVE, LOVE this song!!!! Takes me back! Thank you for doing this one.
love this song and always love watching the video, nice looking guys. Thanks for the reaction.
Check out "Get The Funk Out", "Decadence Dance","Play With Me", "Rise", "Politicalamity", "Rest In Peace" by them as well...awesome guitar by Nuno Bettencourt
Nuno Bettencourt is one of the best guitar players in the world! Love Extreme!
Not me going back to being 8yrs old and jammin out EVERYTIME this song came of the radio! They had another song too but I can remember the name!
These guys could do anything. I have a soft spot for When I first kissed you. But their rock side with Pornograffiti, or or harmonies in Hole Hearted or A Song for Love.
That really took me back, ❤❤❤
Jimmy Fallon and Jack Black do a spot on parody of this that is actually really good ….. and funny
Odd ..
I think of that right away lol it’s so great
@@amber3567 always!
Jimmy funny… I doubt it🤨
I saw Tenacious D at a festival in 2022! Awesome!!
The Van Halen singer you never heard, with one of the greatest guitarists playing today!
Gary Cherone & Nuno Bettencourt!
And Nuno is still sooooo beautiful to this day
Omgosh....u didn't know this song previously? Been listening to it since my teens! I'm 44. ❤ this song is beautiful
Get the funk out by extreme is a must ❤
This song is in the 10 best written songs ,,, ever. IMO I love it!!!😍
First time I danced with a boy was the 8th grade homecoming dance to this song. I went and bought the single on cassette, yes cassette, and listened to it over and over. It's become a comforting favorite.
Aww, I’m here because I saw you just did a Seventeen reaction and explored your channel a bit. This song makes my Gen X heart happy. Love it 😊
I was obsessed with this song when it came out, they were the type of band I was normally but I loved a couple of songs of their album.
aaaaah I made an entire piece of artwork because of that song when I was in art school (because I am that old 🤫) and I remember belting out that song with my roommate in the back of a car while our (serious) boyfriends were driving and they both somewhat soon dumped us - oh lawd nothing makes sense hahahah - props to the line jumper though - good stuff 😍🤣💞
This songs just feels like falling in love. Perfect song.
I love this song. One of favorites to belt out! Play "Hole Hearted" next ❤
Loved this song so much we put it in our wedding.
Grew up to this !! Omg 😳 I’m old .. one hit wonders but amazing !
This is definitely one of those favs from back in the day. When I played guitar, I HAD to know how to play this song. It was my favorite for a very long time. Now it’s still up there lol I love that I just saw reactors were looking into it. ❤
How time flies?! absolutely love these guys and the song ❤❤
Beautiful song!
Here in Europe this was a one hit wonder and it got so much airtime! Love it! Thanks for the requester x
You’re welcome. Sometimes making people I don’t know feel seen is totally worth it.
Hi AB,It is a beautiful song...👍☝️🤓

Keep the reactions coming! I've been w/ you since your 1st reaction. You're reaction channel is my fav! Sending much love, light & positive energy. ❤💫👍

PERFECTION!! You should check out Exile "Kiss You All Over"...if you haven't already!!😉😉🎶🎼🎵🎸🎤🎧🥁🎹🔥🤘🤘
I love the acoustic guitar. And the words are touching.
Thanks for this one, AB; I hope you and your family feel better soon!🤗
This is an amazing song, but you will be blown away by the rest of their catalog - glam/hair/hard rock and the best guitarist since EVH
LOVE LOVE LOVE this greatest of Love songs!!!!!!
Whole hearted. Another good one
Talent, looks and great hair!!! And they can sing too! 😮❤️😮❤️😮. Gary Cherone and Nuno Bettencourt, lead vocals and amazing guitarist. They are actually a hard rock/funk metal band.

There a rock band

Now that youve heard this, you must listen to the Jack Black Jimmy Fallon cover!!
You need to karaoke this. You could kill it.
Isn’t it a lovely song?
This is from their early career . They had a long break and after several years they released new stuff.
Most of their songs are harder . Suggest from earlier years "Get The Funk Out" From newer stuff "Banshee" and "Rise"
Need to check out Get The Funk Out
Check out "HOLE HEARTED"...great harmonies!
Dude, checkout....Get the Funk Out. Hole Hearted, and Kid Ego
Classic 🔥🔥🔥
Guy Sebastian, Battle Scars, music from the home front version
This band is actually still releasing new music. Nuno is a masterclass level guitarist and shows it off in their song "Rise" just released in the last year or so. Word of warning, it's a banger, not an acoustic ballad.
Try John Denver, he is AMAZING!!!!
Now you HAVE to watch/listen to Jimmy Fallon and Jack Black cover this song! It’s amazing!!!
Check out the Voice USA coaches doing this cover - good collaboration of their voices (sorry for the pun)😂 Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, Gwen Stefani, Blake Shelton
They were a one hit wonder, but great high school dance slow song 💙
Jack Black and Jimmy Fallon made a version of this video that's so good. Please check it and ❤❤❤❤
The camera pulling back a few times to show the rest of the band lounging around was actually a funny little gag the rest of the band came up with because they werent needed for this song.
❤
That high pitch sound in your audio is a groundloop. Exact sound I get if I plug into both an amp, and the computer.
Haven't heard this in ages! The record is lots better. Heard this on the radio all the time.
I like the westlife cover better! But I love this song!!!
Jack Black and Jimmy Fallon didvan amazing version. You should check it out
Oh, PLEASE, AB, react to Jimmy Fallon and Jack Black covering this song! It is so awesome!
I was in 5th grade when this came out 😂
Prince said Nuno was a Top 3 guitarist in the World. And Prince did not throw kudos around lightly.
M first boss move. I earned $5 a math problem to do someone’s homework.
This song always makes me think of a teenage boy trying to talk his girlfriend into having sex.
What’s up with the shades?
Panty dropper Hall of Fame.
Haha! Your welcome!
LOVE THIS SONG.... sadly, their album isn't really this type of music. Please, y'all correct me if I'm wrong.
The words: SHOW ME not just the words. Actions speak truth, js
Exactly. Actions speak louder than words.
No they're not gay
They are still active so NOT a one-hit wonder.
Wtf are you rambling on about boiling silverware? What did you smoke or snort?
