The one Iead band member turns to the others with a 'holy shit' look & the 1st member to reply is shaking his head 'we ain't gettin' better than that!"
Same here. I'm pretty sure I've seen this at least a dozen times. It's just one of those movies you never get sick of watching. This song also makes goosebumps on me when I hear it. I've seen 2 other rockers perform the song on video as well.
@@nicholasmuro1742 - They probably would have been big here but they opened up for Slaughter at the start of a big American tour, and a scaffolding came down and crushed the lead singer's spine.
Definitely nearing the end of an era. Tough to see this movie getting made just a few years later. I don't know exactly when the culture moved on from arena rock but it was not long after this.
As a former musician, this one cringe worthy movie. Not once do people think one way of you, then just flip their impression of you because you say you're in a band.
Greatest scene in the film, along with the first concert. Anyone who's struggled to build their dream can relate to this. I'm a film composer and this is like the moment after I spent 15 to 20 years struggling on small projects, working crappy side jobs to stay alive, then after doing an interview on that series or film you REALLY want.....you get that call, and they say...'You've got the gig". Nothing compares to that feeling. Changes your life.
I fully agree. I started out mopping the floor just like you guys. But now… now I'm washing lettuce. Soon I'll be on fries; then the grill. In a year or two, I'll make assistant manager, and that's when the big bucks start rolling in.
I remember this scene specifically out of no where. I was just at work and this scene popped up. But I remember watching this movie yearsssss ago when I was younger lol. Such a great movie
A girl like that telling you "I LOVE YOU" when you're nervous as heck during the biggest audition of your life for your top dream job - What more do you need?!😍👌🏽
Can you imagine what it would be like for a rock band to say well mate you got the gig, this was one of Mark Walburgs best movies, and very underrated, this movie is one you can watch over and over and never get tired of it.
@@MrParkerman6 Dude, AC/DC, Van Halen, hell even Queen replaced their singers. You'd have to be a complete moron not to join a well established arena touring band that has albums out.
One of Mark's greatest movie characters. After fame, drugs, booze, & millions.💵his character finally realized what was really important in life. Family, his roots & real love. I really liked his character. Also, "The Perfect Storm" was a tearjerker. His last words were so true. "There's no Goodbye, only love" 🙏🏻💞
I know there was a lot of mixed reactions about this movie, but personally I really liked it. I mean just getting to look at Jennifer Aniston for the better part of 2 hours is worth the price of admission in and of itself. Also lets be honest, this song kicks ass!!!
I liked Jennifer Aniston's character, how she supported him and had his back, something missing these days in the big butt, selfie "look at me", "what have you done for me" sausage fest of today.
Got this feeling in 2006 when I was asked to sing with Ian Gillan being the winner of the Smoke This Contest. I’ll never forget the Sunday call from John Trickett that I won and was being flown out to Vegas. Life changing experience and very grateful to be on stage with a legend.
I love this scene. Everything about it is just right. Mark being super nervous, but then his talent just takes over. The pecking order in the band. How it comes down to just the manager* and the guitarist to decide. How they only want him to do this one part of one song, because if he can do this part, he can do their whole catalog.
This scene is so well crafted. The writing and performances are spot on, especially if you’re a musician and know how this situations unfold. The music is divine, the director chose the perfect song for the audition, and Matijevic recorded an amazing take: not as perfect as the original version, because the voice has to showcase Izzy being shy and nervous, but gains more power as he progresses through the chorus thus reflecting his newfound confidence. Last but not least the sound mix was a superb choice: we can hear from inside the booth, so it’s Izzy’s pov, isolated from the rest. After they stop the song and talk, we hear his breath above every other sound. This way the audience is truly immersed in Whalberg’s position, and he delivers both the anxiety and excitement through his facial expressions and with his breath. Brilliant.
*_"Mark being super nervous, but then his talent just takes over."_* It's not him singing, he's lip synching. The real singer is Miljenko Matijevic from Steelheart.
Not metal, hard rock ballad maybe? But I feel ya. I felt the same way watching Straight outta Compton...never was much into that scene but the soundtrack was killer and performances by the actors were very good.
UofMichFan It was in him singing in certain instances. I believe this audition was walburg but the concert wasn't. That's why if listen closely to the movie, you'll notice it sometimes sounds different.
This whole scene was one of the best of the movie. The part right before this where the lead singer who is being kicked out of the band gives "Izzy" a reality check about what it really takes to be him is great.
Miljenko Matijevic, of Steelheart fame, belting this one out. He had, unquestionably, the best pipes of the 80's rockers. Just a shame he was a bit late to the party as they didn't get going until 89/90. For any youngins watching this: the mid-to-late 80's were one of the best eras in American history. We had moved past a lot of the racial and cultural divides, no one took themselves too seriously, competition was fierce but also inspiring others to greatness, people went for their dreams, and the music was at the zenith of it all. Entertainment wasn't just a platform for political theater as it has become today. Free speech, freedom to treat your body as your own, and freedom to gather were all held sacred. You can see it in all the movies, and hear it in all the music.
Well we still have free speech , freedom to treat your body as your own, and freedom to gather so I'm a little lost on that one. And yes I was around as 30something for the late 80's
@@mizzury54 As a 50something at the time, I know what you don't.The Llama is right. We were taught harmony and possibilities in school.

despite of all of the critics about this movie, I like it a lot. And I still watch it occasionally. I think it depicts the lifestyle similar to the actual shit some rock stars go through. And if I may be so bold to say; Motley Crue might agree
I know Mark didn't sing this but it actually fits his type of voice i mean when i look at him and listen to his voice when he talks it just feels like that's his real voice even tho its not
@@agnidas5816 well, its not just some "studio " guy they got to sing. It miljenko matijevic, lead singer of Steelheart. One of the greatest male voices ever. Some of the songs were sung by Jeff Scott Soto as well.
no man, when you got it ,you got it,talent doesn't make any excuses,it just projects,this song is powerful and takes a helluva diaphragm to sing it correctly
Because of Mark Wahlberg's previous career in music. It helped sold the illusion that it was him singing this. A lot of people including me were confused and thought that he somehow managed to improve his vocals in a such a short time.
Chris is correct. I had a friend who knew every metal band in history. He was 22ish, this was 2008. He passed away. He told me it was Steelheart & subsequently got me the album version. Excellent track. Miss that big guy too.
Wahlberg was sucking off the rest of the band while someone with actual skill filled in. Was Jennifer AnusTon's nose carved w/a potato peeler or is it just deflated from all that KOH-KANG??!!
@@kriswilliams8866 he's NOT talking about Mark singing. he's talking generally. you shouldn't laugh at people when you don't understand the conversation yourself. now proceed to call me names.
I had the honor of seeing Kenny Kanowski (Steelheart Co-Writer, Guitarist, and eventual Lead Vocalist) perform this song with Chilin Sun in his home town of Buffalo NY. RIP Kenny.
Yes, it is a very good movie and the Soundtrack are awesome!.. Thanks for the clarification on the voice (singer) because I always thought maybe was Mark. Bye
As someone who went to one of the top music schools in the country, and had this very dream since he was in elementary school, this movie was how I hoped it would all eventually play out for me as well. I've had a couple of major auditions, but never found the right fit, which is what it's all about. That and being a good hang. But it still has been a blast and I've had the chance to play with some well-known national artists, so that's not too shabby. Great fun... both music and the movie itself.
Friends with a world renowned touring musician most important thing for him is side players are not obnoxious timely and excellent musical training his side guys have also toured with other million selling artists in LA and Nashville very insightful for me anyhow
The people who think this is Mark Wahlberg's voice...I can't even. The vocals for ALL his Steel Dragon songs were sung by Steelheart frontman Miljenko Matijevic. "We All Die Young" is in fact a Steelheart song. This is just a harder, more up-tempo version of the '96 original. The only actor in the entire movie whose actual singing voice is featured is Myles Kennedy, the singer who Wahlberg pulls on stage toward the end of the movie to replace him. But Myles of course was already a real-life rock star.
This movie about the 80s hair bands TAKES me back to to the 80s when the hair bands started being played on heavy rotation on 97.5 WABB here in Mobile Alabama. I was 17 years old in 1986 & playing in probably 4-5 hair band garage bands. When this movie came out in 2000 I couldn't wait to go see it at the movies. This is the best scene of the movie to me...all I could do is smile when he was offered the gig. I'm a cross-country truck driver now for over 20 years...and I still listen to my 80s hair bands...if I live to be 80...i'll still be an 80s headbanger. Scorpions Iron Maiden Motley Crue Quiet Riot Ozzy Judas Priest Cinderella Kiss Dio W.A.S.P Ratt Dokken Van Halen G-N-R White Snake And I COULD GO ON AND ON.
Back in the 80's for me i had the sunday night sermon on some station coming from a university.Started off with Ozzys Ironman and from there many on that list and more.Its not the norm for a black teen to be into metal but its my first choice in music.My first album i ever paid for was the ultimate Sin(ozzy).Todays metal is kinda blah mostly but nothing compares to those 80's bands in their prime.I love me some jazz,r&b,hiphop, dancehall, country,bigband,etc etc.....But long live rock&roll.
I can't even begin to count the hours I spent working to be able to sing this song in its entirety. People who think metal is just a bunch of screaming into a mic can go suck a rock...to be able to hit those high notes, hold it, and STILL be able to do vibrato at the same time is hard as hell!!
You talk about classics. Modern metal is like 65-70% crap. Few jewels in a swamp. But i totally agree, hard rock or metal isnt easy at all, not in the slightest.
@@taljairrusk5408 Exactly. I stopped listening to American bands by large years ago. European metal like Nightwish, Sabaton, Visions of Atlantis, Epica....that is where all the talent is. As well as bands from Japan...Band Maid especially! They are honestly the best rock band to come around since the Beatles!
I'm not that much into Metal. I'm more into Plastics. But seriously, what bad was Tim Ripper Owents with? Was he a Tribute Band Member who ended up replacing the origianl Musician he was emulating?
@@HoldenNY22 Yes the movie is loosely about Judas Priest, when their original singer Rob Halford came out, and left the band shortly after. Then Tim auditioned and joined the band, but left after not too long. The movie makes fun of bands, their egos, and all the infighting. Could easily apply to Gary Cherone in Van Halen
Because it never did. Grunge came from a variety of influences, including heavy metal. It also continued during the same time as grunge. All the metalheads didn't just suddenly become grunge rockers.
Had nothing to do with metal being replaced by grunge --- simply about a guy who had a dream, but it turned out to be different than he imagined once he achieved it
@@tommitchell7294 Disagree. it was about Heavy metal becoming corporate rock. In the movie the band Steel Dragon did not care about the new singers new ideas. They had a formula for making money and they did not want to stray, hence the term corporate rock. He got tired of it and moved on. Why do you think he moved to Seattle?...Enter Grunge.
@@niltomega2978 corporate rock and grunge are just allegories in this movie --- it's a story about one man pursuing his dream, and then realizing it wasn't what he thought, and realizing he had the dream all along (ie, the love of his woman)
this movie was in 2001... 6 years later (2007), Arnel Pineda was discovered by Journey, and Tommy Decarlo joined Boston, 2017 Ronnie Platt joined Kansas. To these guys, fairy tale is real...
Wahlberg is singing the hesitant parts according to the director's comments. This is straight out of the director's mouth on the DVD that I have and obtained this clip from.
It honestly felt like this when I had to sing in my audition to get on a music course at college. The smile on my face when they said there was a space for me if I wanted it...
🥀Awesome Part🥀Mark played an Incredible part no doubt 🥀The song was written by Kenny Kanowski former Steelheart member, Chillin Sun, but Miljenko Matijevic of Steelheart is singing this song Awesome Job Guy's🥀🤘
This movie didn't get a lot of credit when it was released, but I think it's developed a cult following over the years. Yes, some of it's silly, like the Batmobile drag race, but the underlying story of a kid who is granted a shot at his dream, loses himself to the debauchery which is life on the road with millionaire rock stars, and sheds it all for authenticity and a shot at his true love is heartwarming.
This pieace of film fucking absolute genuies inspired me to be in my own band write my own lyrics and be the front man havent gotten famous yet lmfao bit to me its about my passion for misic and the love for rock n roll this movie helped me to begin a asome journey 1 that i will never stop chaseing untill i die❤
If steel Dragon were a real band they’d be right up there with the great metal of the 80s like skid row, Motley Crue, Ratt, Dokken. All those guys and more. My Pops was a huge metal fan back in the day and absolutely loved this movie. I loved it too. He’s passed away 10 years ago and when Wahlbergs character belts out ”and we all die young”.... hooooo boy that hits me hard. Great film all around.

@@Macsimizer I know what you mean. I guess we are just confused. I know Steelheart is a band. I meant that the band in rockstar, if real, would have been one of the greats.

yep. him and the studio guy they hired to sing the songs have a very similar timbre :)
@@agnidas5816 if you ever listen to the audio documentary from the movie they do mention that they mix Marks voice with Miljenko.
@@agnidas5816 Is the guy actually singing from the band Steelheart? I had heard that but don't know if it's true
@@agnidas5816 well, its not just some "studio " guy they got to sing. It miljenko matijevic, lead singer of Steelheart. One of the greatest male voices ever. Some of the songs were sung by Jeff Scott Soto as well.
Miljenko Matijevic is the voice behind this.
A great movie that represented the 80's..man, the memories.
May 2024...who's with me ???
Love this song
🤘🏼
Here from Italy😊❤
🤟🏼
Always
I like this scene. Anyone undergone any tough audition knows this scene was nerve-wracking especially when all eyes on you 🤣
no man, when you got it ,you got it,talent doesn't make any excuses,it just projects,this song is powerful and takes a helluva diaphragm to sing it correctly
Because of Mark Wahlberg's previous career in music. It helped sold the illusion that it was him singing this. A lot of people including me were confused and thought that he somehow managed to improve his vocals in a such a short time.
That's not entirely true. This version in this scene was him it didn't sound like that on the album version.
@@Oi325 this is not him singing lol
Its my cousins band steelheart who did the vocals my cousin john belmont was their tour manager the real vocalist is mike from steelheart
Chris is correct. I had a friend who knew every metal band in history. He was 22ish, this was 2008. He passed away. He told me it was Steelheart & subsequently got me the album version. Excellent track. Miss that big guy too.
Wahlberg was sucking off the rest of the band while someone with actual skill filled in. Was Jennifer AnusTon's nose carved w/a potato peeler or is it just deflated from all that KOH-KANG??!!
That face people who laughed at you make when they realize you actually can sing.
So good.
I love Mark in Lone Survivor.
that's not mark singing its Miljenko Matijevic
It's not Mark singing lol..
@@kriswilliams8866
he's NOT talking about Mark singing.
he's talking generally.
you shouldn't laugh at people when you don't understand the conversation yourself.
now proceed to call me names.
Miljenko Matijevic Look him up.
Can you imagine?! THAT FEELING
“WELL MATE DO YOU WANT THE GIG THEN?”
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had the honor of seeing Kenny Kanowski (Steelheart Co-Writer, Guitarist, and eventual Lead Vocalist) perform this song with Chilin Sun in his home town of Buffalo NY. RIP Kenny.
Yes, it is a very good movie and the Soundtrack are awesome!.. Thanks for the clarification on the voice (singer) because I always thought maybe was Mark.
Bye
Dirk Diggler finally got a voice!
pusy
We all feel his heat 😂
I like the little smile Jennifer Anniston gives at 1:29 when she realizes he's going to nail it this time.
As someone who went to one of the top music schools in the country, and had this very dream since he was in elementary school, this movie was how I hoped it would all eventually play out for me as well. I've had a couple of major auditions, but never found the right fit, which is what it's all about. That and being a good hang. But it still has been a blast and I've had the chance to play with some well-known national artists, so that's not too shabby. Great fun... both music and the movie itself.
Friends with a world renowned touring musician most important thing for him is side players are not obnoxious timely and excellent musical training his side guys have also toured with other million selling artists in LA and Nashville very insightful for me anyhow
i have to say that mark does great on matching the words. first time i saw this movie i actully thought that was him
Dirk Diggler was awesome in this movie
The people who think this is Mark Wahlberg's voice...I can't even. The vocals for ALL his Steel Dragon songs were sung by Steelheart frontman Miljenko Matijevic. "We All Die Young" is in fact a Steelheart song. This is just a harder, more up-tempo version of the '96 original. The only actor in the entire movie whose actual singing voice is featured is Myles Kennedy, the singer who Wahlberg pulls on stage toward the end of the movie to replace him. But Myles of course was already a real-life rock star.
I believe Jeff Scott Soto had a hand in some of the vocals as well.
Holy damn, Jennifer's gorgeous in the scene. How have I not seen this movie?
This movie about the 80s hair bands TAKES me back to to the 80s when the hair bands started being played on heavy rotation on 97.5 WABB here in Mobile Alabama.
I was 17 years old in 1986 & playing in probably 4-5 hair band garage bands.
When this movie came out in 2000 I couldn't wait to go see it at the movies.
This is the best scene of the movie to me...all I could do is smile when he was offered the gig.
I'm a cross-country truck driver now for over 20 years...and I still listen to my 80s hair bands...if I live to be 80...i'll still be an 80s headbanger.
Scorpions
Iron Maiden
Motley Crue
Quiet Riot
Ozzy
Judas Priest
Cinderella
Kiss
Dio
W.A.S.P
Ratt
Dokken
Van Halen
G-N-R
White Snake
And I COULD GO ON AND ON.
Nice list! Keep rockin'!
Back in the 80's for me i had the sunday night sermon on some station coming from a university.Started off with Ozzys Ironman and from there many on that list and more.Its not the norm for a black teen to be into metal but its my first choice in music.My first album i ever paid for was the ultimate Sin(ozzy).Todays metal is kinda blah mostly but nothing compares to those 80's bands in their prime.I love me some jazz,r&b,hiphop, dancehall, country,bigband,etc etc.....But long live rock&roll.
I'm assuming you meant Roth era Van Halen
Only Roth era Van Halen....if not you must be a narc.
This is the movie that finally changed my mind about Mark Whalberg.
“So, ya want the gig, then?” Priceless!
Can't believe that this came out 21 years ago.......enjoy your life my friends.
still listen to this every goddamn day
Holding the last note sold me. LOL. The best part of this movie though is the ending. 😊
I can't even begin to count the hours I spent working to be able to sing this song in its entirety. People who think metal is just a bunch of screaming into a mic can go suck a rock...to be able to hit those high notes, hold it, and STILL be able to do vibrato at the same time is hard as hell!!
I could never belt. Three octave range back in the day, but no belt
You talk about classics. Modern metal is like 65-70% crap. Few jewels in a swamp.
But i totally agree, hard rock or metal isnt easy at all, not in the slightest.
@@taljairrusk5408 Exactly. I stopped listening to American bands by large years ago. European metal like Nightwish, Sabaton, Visions of Atlantis, Epica....that is where all the talent is.
As well as bands from Japan...Band Maid especially! They are honestly the best rock band to come around since the Beatles!
@@technewsfortechnoobs i enjoy Disturbed, american. But its really hard to find anything worth listening to nowadays. Sad but true.
Based on true story of Tim Ripper Owens. One of the best voices in metal.
it's based on a lot of band stories, but yes the Ripper too.
I'm not that much into Metal. I'm more into Plastics. But seriously, what bad was Tim Ripper Owents with? Was he a Tribute Band Member who ended up replacing the origianl Musician he was emulating?
@@HoldenNY22 Yes the movie is loosely about Judas Priest, when their original singer Rob Halford came out, and left the band shortly after. Then Tim auditioned and joined the band, but left after not too long. The movie makes fun of bands, their egos, and all the infighting. Could easily apply to Gary Cherone in Van Halen
you mean Halford copy he was good at that I prefer his work withed iced earth
@@rollotomassi4768 - Thank You for the Information. I will have to look up who Gary Cherone is.
I just saw Steelheart live. They play all these. Incredible.
I love rock like this pure emotion yet filled with adrenaline amazing
I ve been looking for this for years
I never understood why this movie was not a bigger hit.
It accurately told the story of how heavy metal moved on to grunge
Because it never did. Grunge came from a variety of influences, including heavy metal. It also continued during the same time as grunge. All the metalheads didn't just suddenly become grunge rockers.
@@derek96720
I realize that metalheads did not change their music genres.
Had nothing to do with metal being replaced by grunge --- simply about a guy who had a dream, but it turned out to be different than he imagined once he achieved it
@@tommitchell7294
Disagree. it was about Heavy metal becoming corporate rock. In the movie the band Steel Dragon did not care about the new singers new ideas. They had a formula for making money and they did not want to stray, hence the term corporate rock. He got tired of it and moved on. Why do you think he moved to Seattle?...Enter Grunge.
@@niltomega2978 corporate rock and grunge are just allegories in this movie --- it's a story about one man pursuing his dream, and then realizing it wasn't what he thought, and realizing he had the dream all along (ie, the love of his woman)
this movie was in 2001... 6 years later (2007), Arnel Pineda was discovered by Journey, and Tommy Decarlo joined Boston, 2017 Ronnie Platt joined Kansas.
To these guys, fairy tale is real...
Wahlberg is singing the hesitant parts according to the director's comments. This is straight out of the director's mouth on the DVD that I have and obtained this clip from.
I love the look on the brunette hottie's face at 2:42, thinking, "honey...you got the job".
Milli's voice is incredible
It honestly felt like this when I had to sing in my audition to get on a music course at college. The smile on my face when they said there was a space for me if I wanted it...
As a musician, I love this movie. We all dream to fill in for our favorite bands.
you dream so very small - assuming you have the talent
@@JamesJoyce12 Well aren't you a daisy. Every party has a pooper, and that sounds like you. Party Pooper....Party Pooper!! 👎
I think that this movie teaches you that sometimes it's best to admire your idols from afar.
No, we don't.
@@downtownbillyandthenewjivefive I feel sorry for you.
I still can't get over how hot Aniston was here
Best part of the Movie.
One of the best "under the radar" movies ever.
This is one of the greatest scenes in cinema history.
🥀Awesome Part🥀Mark played an Incredible part no doubt 🥀The song was written by Kenny Kanowski former Steelheart member, Chillin Sun, but Miljenko Matijevic of Steelheart is singing this song Awesome Job Guy's🥀🤘
🥀RIP KENNY KANOWSKI WE LOVE YOU🥀🎸
@@denisehedden13 Love to you Denise!❤🙏❤. Kenny Kanowski would be very greatful for you telling the truth.❤🎤❤
Wow, that's so cool to know!
i've been looking for this song for sooooo long!
This movie looks so authentic like it was really in the 80s 🤟😎🤟 ..I love this song very much
I get goosebumps every time I watch this scene. Every time.
My favorite Wahlberg film. Moral of the story: be careful of what you wish for.
Best scene from the movie Rockstar 🤘🏻😎🤟🏻
I watch this almost once a week, Love it!
More people need to watch this movie. An all time great from my childhood
Feels good to have Jimmy McNulty from the Wire tell you you got the gig.
This movie didn't get a lot of credit when it was released, but I think it's developed a cult following over the years. Yes, some of it's silly, like the Batmobile drag race, but the underlying story of a kid who is granted a shot at his dream, loses himself to the debauchery which is life on the road with millionaire rock stars, and sheds it all for authenticity and a shot at his true love is heartwarming.
Underrated movie
I loved this movie and I love this scene. It gives me goosebumps every time I see it. I love the music in this movie.
I feel the same way, I watch this clip all the time.
This pieace of film fucking absolute genuies inspired me to be in my own band write my own lyrics and be the front man havent gotten famous yet lmfao bit to me its about my passion for misic and the love for rock n roll this movie helped me to begin a asome journey 1 that i will never stop chaseing untill i die❤
this scene rocks...best in the movie...such an underrated movie
So much happening here. The shot pour, the quick chug. Great scene.
If steel Dragon were a real band they’d be right up there with the great metal of the 80s like skid row, Motley Crue, Ratt, Dokken. All those guys and more. My Pops was a huge metal fan back in the day and absolutely loved this movie. I loved it too. He’s passed away 10 years ago and when Wahlbergs character belts out ”and we all die young”.... hooooo boy that hits me hard. Great film all around.
Steelheart is a real band that did the track "We All Die Young" for this movie.
@@Macsimizer ..... ok but the band in the film Steel dragon is fictional.
@@cicolasnage5684 That is correct!
Steelheart form in 1989.
Here is Steelheart's Album version. th-cam.com/video/zGvzKS4yKPM/w-d-xo.html
Here is a live 2019 version @ 4:22 his pipes are still there. th-cam.com/video/kI_puQe5S6I/w-d-xo.html
@@Macsimizer I know what you mean. I guess we are just confused. I know Steelheart is a band. I meant that the band in rockstar, if real, would have been one of the greats.
@@cicolasnage5684 Well, that's Zakk Wylde on guitar. He's been pretty successful
Such a great movie it makes you wish you were a rock star :-)
Thats it. Thanks to this song, I have decided to quit university and pre-med (I was planning to become a brain surgeon), and I will pursue a career in heavy metal singing. ROCK & RoLLLLLLLLLLLLLL !!!! YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!
Do both!
How’d it go
@@Kado_Tornado Not so good. Looking for work. Nobody hiring heavy metal wannabes. Life choices matter.
