@@paultreadaway102I am fairly certain that "someone" was actually Rikki Rockett himself, drummer from Poison! ;) (Pretty sure Vixen opened for Poison at least a bit)
This band was so underrated. My band opened a show with them just before they broke it big...they were killer players with a killer sound. Treated us great.
C'mon, it's not underrated.......this thing was all over the radio when it came out......I remember.....I was in my 20s.......so was Cryin' ....what sucked is they fizzled and broke up so quickly
I was born in 1970, and this always takes me back to my youth, even as we're about to enter 2025. It's a ritual I do every year, listening to '80s hard rock and metal to say goodbye to the year. So much life, so many concerts behind me... and I still get as excited as I used to!
RIP Rock in peace Jan! These guys were the dream I was never given the chance to fulfill so I've lived vicariously through them. Ladies you are amazing!!
You're lucky, man. I'm 34 and i really don't want even try to understand today's music and style - i like art of past decades only (especially 80's). These girls and their haircuts - all this was real, true. Now is only silicon, foolish fashion and stupid movies without sense.
I was born in '97 and discovered Vixen in 2012, since that they're my favorite band alongside Aerosmith. They deserve much more recognition than they achieved. Jan is one of my guitar heroes, Janet is one of my favorite singers, Roxy is a war machine behind the drums and Share is a bass goddess. R.I.P Jan, the legend.
I was 14, when this video, was all over MTV! Hard to believe but it was also in the 📻 radio! In 1988, when this came out, we also had Lita Ford's, 💋 kiss me deadly, femme fatale s, waiting for the big one, all over MTV/ radio. Those were the good old days. I believe both Saraya/debut album and Fiona's/ heart❤ like a gun, came out in 89, another great year for female, and rock and roll, I. General. Check out Saraya, and Fiona, if you haven't, so already!
One of the the greatest bands,I saw them live back then on tour and they became my favorite band because they were so full of energy and rocked the whole time, they had it all, beautiful!
I meet Jan's cousin today. Best day I've had in a long time. He played drums in the 80s so he knew all the hair bands too. Got lots of good dirt. I told him to make sure his cousin knew she was my idol. That the entire group was my idol. When he said his cousin played in viven I could tell he didn't think I would know them. Boy was he wrong. Viven meant the world to so many young girls who wanted to rock. They started a revolution in the music industry. Whereas the runaways might have come first and a couple solo acts like Lita Ford or Joan jett. But it was viven that showed the world that girls/womem can rock just as hard as the men could. These ladies have no clue how many lives they changed. I wasn't musically inclined but I used their example to crush it several other male dominated industries. Their punk rock attitudes and 80s hardcore rock helped break a lot of glass ceilings. I hope you women know how much you meant to an entire generation and beyond. Even my son and his friends prefer the 80s to the crap they call music today. You are true women leaders. You are what we need to show these young girls they don't have to beg or legislate their way to tht top... you earn it and then you take it! And damn whoever doesn't like it.
Reading Richard Marx's memoir is why I'm here. Great song! Never heard of the band Vixen until his book, and I can understand why his part of helping this band happen was so important.
I saw Richard Marx live a few days ago. I never knew his involvement until he mentioned it but I remember liking Vixen back in the day. All great musicians.
@jhgjhghjhvkuggug154 I don't think rap will take over. I think, as with fashion, no one style will dominate. Artists will be able to use whatever style works for them and the song. Artists will be more free, and I think we'll be able to get our glam rock back with even more amazing groups. This is the female rock group that always comes to mind for me. Vixen, Lita Ford and Pat Benatar will ALWAYS be my ladies of rock.

I was born on November 14th 1993 grew up in the late 90s early 2000s I might be a millennial but to this day I still listen to the 80s rock/metal today’s generation has no idea what good music is.
Im 58 close to 59 and still rocking...if I had a time-machine, I'd jump back to stay there. Not that everything was right in that time...but they don't make this music nowadays...
No they don’t! And I’m up there…1965. I just grew up in a neighborhood that had older siblings and were into music. I gravitated to that. I was listening to Zeppelin, Tull and Bad Company in 1974. Then i meet a neighbor that got me into so much s$&t…. Emile. Will never forget him. He took me to my first concert Pat Travers opening for Rainbow (Difficult to Cure Tour).
The 80s the best decade ever I use to wear my hair like this all the time with a bunch of aquanet and the 80s had the best music I want to go back and do it all over does anyone have a delorean I'll go back in a sec no internet no facebook no cell phones to ruin our lives todays kids dont know how great we had it I would not want to be a kid today the 80s live on .
In the 80's we lived and rocked,like we would never get old.Here's today and to hell with tomorrow was our motto.We either died young in Los Angeles or got old and moved to Nashville.I laugh at this shit they call music these days.
+Too Wild You said it... And while I'm getting older, I refuse to grow up. Turn the Marshall to 11 and rock on! "Music" today is as bland as bad vanilla ice cream lol...
Hey man, not all of us are killing music. My dad played guitar in a band called Lippstikk and they opened for Great White back in 88. I heard of hair bands and I was like this is great.
Too Wild. Well we rocked in L.A. from the late 70's through the 80's. Never got to Nashville though. Got promoted at a Bank and ended up in Fresno CA and now Bakersfield CA. Holy crap, what the hell happened to me?! Give me my drums, some beer and my hair! Damn! I miss those times
OR the bands lived in Nashville & moved to LA...only to die there. I lived in Nashville all through this era & knew so many bands that split to LA to try & make it big. The 80's were a blast! Music was about having FUN, celebrating music & life & rockin out. Live concerns will never be the same as the 80's. Remember standing in line all night for General Admission tickets so you could squeeze & crawl your way up to front row? LOL - AWESOME!
I remember when I was in elementary school in the mid 80's, I secretly sneaked into my brother's room to borrow a cassette without permission and one of them was VIXEN, it was a really fun memory at that time❤❤❤
This song came out when I was about 12 years old, and I loved it. I remember one day in middle school we had to run around the track in gym class, and this was one of the songs they played over the loudspeaker. That was the most fun I ever had in a gym class! As a girl growing up in the ‘80s, it was inspiring to see Vixen and other women in heavy metal like Lita Ford who were strong and powerful yet also beautiful and feminine. Not only were they amazing musicians, but they also had the most incredible hair-it was a work of art itself!
My first show was Vixen, Ratt, Quiet Riot, Slaughter, and Vince Neil headlining before his return to Motley Crue. The drummer played for Slaughter, and she also played the keys for Vince Neil. She’ll know this… Vince was so hammered he fell off stage singing how sweet home and he was throwing it up like 1 more! We were like No more! 😂 classic
The Girls are Gorgeous Glam and Glam around that Glam Hair Metal time and they can Rock beauty talented just blessed and part of the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s
I live in a far away country, but I had listen this song for the first time at a CD shop and was excited to buy it. I will never forget their courage and sincere effort as true rock stars.
Lauren Dion amen to that! I was just a kid in the 80's but I'm stuck on the music and haven't liked much of anything since then. I keep coming back to the good stuff like this. seriously feel like I got ripped off generationally, over and over. I'd rather be a child of the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, but those that were adolescents or above in the 80s really had it made, what a great time. I had the 90s....blah. Nirvana, lame. Tell me something good that happened between 90 and 99. Yeah, the only thing I can cite is losing my virginity, the rest is crap.
Lauren Dion well, there are lots of new school bands nowadays playing 80s style rock music. So the 80s are still pretty alive, except for the fact that they went underground.
OH YEAH!! I had an awesome time in the 80's. Started getting good music wise for awhile in the late 70s then the 80s rocked! I was a lot crazier then. Gotta grow up sometime darn it.
Sue Buckley hi sue I too had awesome time in the 80s but just remember growing old is compulsory but growing up is optional ! just remember youre memories as dreams don't last as long ! see you on the other side some day colin x

These new airheads that think they sing these days can go and learn from the likes of Vixen, Girlschool, The Runaways and Lita Ford. Vixen was one of favorites.
Very greatful I graduated in 1984 from highshool as I not only got to experience the entire decade of the 1980's but also the 70's. Two entirety different from one another in many ways but both were nothing short of awesome. At age 56 now I will at this point never tire of 80's rock and new wave.
In interviews, these stunning women said that other bands they would play shows with (male, of course) would watch them just to see if they played their own instruments. I love that the memory of Vixen will live on through me and others who fangirl for them ♡
HAPPY BDAY SHARE! i watched the VH1 bands reunited, and Share looked even YOUNGER 10+ years after the band disbanded. It's a must see, guys💋 it's the full episode, commercial free.
@@summerseverlasting That's fantastic. I think the key is: constant forward motion. Always make positive steps toward your goal no matter how small the step. Before you know it we'll be rockin' to your videos here.
Yup.....I wouldn’t trade with this generation today for a million dollars...we had so much fun in the 80’s...packed beaches, clubbing, parties every weekend...hair & clothes...no worries about people taking videos and pics of you all the time....lol
Jan sounded waay better (if thats possible) in concert. check out this clip and listen to how heavenly her guitar tone reverberates: th-cam.com/video/lbHMO8V7tfU/w-d-xo.html (R.I.P. Jan Kuehnemund 😢)
I graduated in 1985. The lives of me and my buddies consisted of good tunes, hanging out, working on our cars, drinking beer, smoking weed and cruising for girls. I have a 15 year old niece and 16 year old nephew who show no interest in any of that. My nephew doesn't even want to learn to drive because he can just Uber anywhere he wants to go and neither of them show interest in going out and dating. This just floors me as well as their parents who also are from our generation. By the time we were 12 or 13 that's all we could think about.
+OldSchoolLimp In my opinion, YES, BELIEVE ME, the '80s (and, yes, the '70s!) WERE, and ALWAYS WILL BE, music's (especially for rock/metal!) "CROWNING ERA!" In my opinion, too bad that grunge garbage had to "rear its UGLY head!"
+OldSchoolLimp I was in my late teens at this time. These where the best years of my life. 1981-1991 Heavy Metal Ruled our lives. It was a way of life. Lots of fond memories from this time. Lots of hot girls during this time too.
doug w I went from liken Partridge Family songs to Rolling Stones, Led Zepplin, Allman Brothers, Alice Cooper, I nicknamed Mick Jagger ( A Rooster on Acid ) because of his energy on stage. I had a friend in High School that was devastated when Lynyrd Skynyrd plane crashed.
God this brings back memories. I grew up with hair bands and metal…played drums since I was 13 and taught myself guitar..several bands that went nowhere, yet still these girls had all the props, loads of talent…and such fun music
Richard Marx wrote this track and Vixen made it immortal. RIP Jan. We miss you. A true guitar hero.
Can't imagine anybody else performing this and in high heeled leather boots no less. They were so glam and could rock the house!
Saw Richard Marx in the Video so cool and someone wearing a Poison shirt all around that same mark in time Glam Glam

Takes me back to the days of hopping on my gt performer and meeting up with friends.
The way she says I don't wanna crawl is just frickin powerful. She has one powerful voice.
The most beautiful girl band of the 80s. They really rocked.❤❤❤❤
Totally agree 👍
Agreed, and without the need for any plastic surgery, excess makeup or filters to get that beauty… just natural looks and true ACTUAL SINGING!
The Girls are Gorgeous Glam and Glam around that Glam Hair Metal time and they can Rock beauty talented just blessed and part of the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s
These lady's have a special place in my heart!
This need to be uploaded in high quality
I met Jan's mother Betty.🙂
She hooked me up with an personalized autograph pic, misc memorabilia and a guitar pic. She was a super nice lady!
This song hooked me instantly.
Wow...I had forgotten how bad ass you ladies were! Rock on, Vixen!
I live in a far away country, but I had listen this song for the first time at a CD shop and was excited to buy it. I will never forget their courage and sincere effort as true rock stars.
Man, do I miss the music scene of the eighties!!!
Lauren Dion amen to that! I was just a kid in the 80's but I'm stuck on the music and haven't liked much of anything since then. I keep coming back to the good stuff like this. seriously feel like I got ripped off generationally, over and over. I'd rather be a child of the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, but those that were adolescents or above in the 80s really had it made, what a great time. I had the 90s....blah. Nirvana, lame. Tell me something good that happened between 90 and 99. Yeah, the only thing I can cite is losing my virginity, the rest is crap.
Lauren Dion well, there are lots of new school bands nowadays playing 80s style rock music. So the 80s are still pretty alive, except for the fact that they went underground.
OH YEAH!! I had an awesome time in the 80's. Started getting good music wise for awhile in the late 70s then the 80s rocked! I was a lot crazier then. Gotta grow up sometime darn it.
Sue Buckley hi sue I too had awesome time in the 80s but just remember growing old is compulsory but growing up is optional ! just remember youre memories as dreams don't last as long ! see you on the other side some day colin x
***** if you mean 80-85, ok
loving vixen forever
If you're a fan of Vixen you should really check out the new single by Chez Kane: th-cam.com/video/FIqSK4K-ki8/w-d-xo.html
These new airheads that think they sing these days can go and learn from the likes of Vixen, Girlschool, The Runaways and Lita Ford. Vixen was one of favorites.
And Phantom Blue. Don't forget Phantom Blue and Warlock.
Before Autotune!
Lita Ford was in the Runaways tho, also, don't forget about Fanny!
Also, glad that someone more know about Phantom Blue, they're so underrated.
Don't forget Joan Jett!
Very greatful I graduated in 1984 from highshool as I not only got to experience the entire decade of the 1980's but also the 70's. Two entirety different from one another in many ways but both were nothing short of awesome. At age 56 now I will at this point never tire of 80's rock and new wave.
I turn 61 in August never stop listening to older music
💘 Vixen! Can't wait to see them at the Indiana State Fair next month
So freaking lucky!
In interviews, these stunning women said that other bands they would play shows with (male, of course) would watch them just to see if they played their own instruments. I love that the memory of Vixen will live on through me and others who fangirl for them ♡
Facts!
The 80's music never gets old way better than what they play today. Let's build a build a time machine and go back to the 80's.
In thee 80's we had REAL MUSIC, REAL BEAUTY and LOTS of memories...this song just showcases a tiny bit of what we had... love and miss it!!!!
Such a great song with a killer outro........sigh, miss you Jan kuehnemund!
80's must have been fun!!
1980's for sure, the guy David Cole who produced this song died of AIDS.
Even with dumbfucks like "Planets Beyond Neptune" around, the 80's were still an awesome time for music....
hey dumbass get your facts straight its not David Cole
it was awesome, didn't know at the time how times would change so much
wumpscut1 - ...no idea of the change that was right around the corner! I wanna go back!
I've had a Crush on Roxy since I listened to them for the 1st time,ROXY PETRUCCI 1 BAD AZZ DRUMMER,STILL LISTENING TO YA AT 47!!!
I remember watching this video when I was in my teens on MTV and now I'm 53 and still jam out too this group
Ótima musica perfeita saudades dos anos 80 e 90 saudades VIXEN para sempre
The good ol days are over, we only have memories now 😢
All the MTV videos to watch.
It would be sad if the memories weren’t epic!!
SHARE PEDERSEN IS THE BEST LOOKING BASS GUITARIST OF ROCK MUSIC!!!!. SHARE, YOU WERE MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE VIXEN!!!!!!.
HELL YEAH!!!. ALL 4 VIXEN'S WERE HOT, BUT SHARE WAS ALWAYS MY FAVE!!!!!!!!!
SickAgain75 me too!

HAPPY BDAY SHARE! i watched the VH1 bands reunited, and Share looked even YOUNGER 10+ years after the band disbanded. It's a must see, guys💋 it's the full episode, commercial free.
I've heard of the band, but hadn't heard any of their music until now. AWESOME band, and GREAT song!! Rock on ladies!!!¡
SO much girl power, this is like my absolute dream! To start an all-girl hair metal band
I know right!! And I'm like a 50 year old man 🔥🔥🔥
Do it please. We need more.
@@T-araLover I'm learning electric guitar, so I'm on the road to success!
@@summerseverlasting That's fantastic. I think the key is: constant forward motion.
Always make positive steps toward your goal no matter how small the step.
Before you know it we'll be rockin' to your videos here.
I'm a girl who plays bass guitar and i have the same dream 🤘🏻
Late 80ies, what a great time, unforgetable
Yup.....I wouldn’t trade with this generation today for a million dollars...we had so much fun in the 80’s...packed beaches, clubbing, parties every weekend...hair & clothes...no worries about people taking videos and pics of you all the time....lol
Yes the 70's were nice too...Families did things together.
@John Doe I was born in the 90's and I wish I could've lived the 80's. I love everything about it, and the world today is like garbage :D
Yes we had a house phone and if you stretch the cord too far from the phone dad would beat your ass
@@ericboyd5644 lol....so true
@@freezEware Yes indeed..actually had to deal with people face to face....early 90’s to mid wasn’t to bad but definitely lacked the music
The best of the best! Thank Almighty God these ladies continue to kick asses and leave deep footprints!
Man, I was around in the 80’s but somehow I missed this. This is phenomenal.
“Phenomenal” is a little excessive. 🤣
Excellent voices, powerful and amazing 💯💯💯
Estos temas de Vixen me generan una sensualidad impresionante. Tanta hermosura y lo hacían con tanta clase. Aguante Vixen!
I worked security for Eddie Money and Vixen at the Stanley Theater in Utica N.y. 1987
80s swept away for fast like the crest of a wave of excellent , energy music:):))
Need to go back to these times
I was 18 in 1988. I loved Jan.
I am 50 in 2020. I miss Jan.
Me too
Jan sounded waay better (if thats possible) in concert. check out this clip and listen to how heavenly her guitar tone reverberates: th-cam.com/video/lbHMO8V7tfU/w-d-xo.html (R.I.P. Jan Kuehnemund 😢)
Same age as you. We had good times. And now we wander off to die alone like a housecat under the bed.
I graduated in 1985. The lives of me and my buddies consisted of good tunes, hanging out, working on our cars, drinking beer, smoking weed and cruising for girls. I have a 15 year old niece and 16 year old nephew who show no interest in any of that. My nephew doesn't even want to learn to drive because he can just Uber anywhere he wants to go and neither of them show interest in going out and dating. This just floors me as well as their parents who also are from our generation. By the time we were 12 or 13 that's all we could think about.
It's a plague everywhere these kids are missing sooooooo much
Just discovered them. Awesome!!!
Damn they are hot and talented!!! Wish I lived during this era!
+OldSchoolLimp was a great era for damn sure!!!!
+OldSchoolLimp In my opinion, YES, BELIEVE ME, the '80s (and, yes, the '70s!) WERE, and ALWAYS WILL BE, music's (especially for rock/metal!) "CROWNING ERA!" In my opinion, too bad that grunge garbage had to "rear its UGLY head!"
+AngelofAnguish agreed!!!
+OldSchoolLimp I did ' they were really good 'too bad they only lasted a short while .
+OldSchoolLimp I was in my late teens at this time. These where the best years of my life. 1981-1991 Heavy Metal Ruled our lives. It was a way of life. Lots of fond memories from this time. Lots of hot girls during this time too.
long live the 80's
Janet's look at 3:10....I Love you !bwonderful Voice and beautiful woman
i love the drummer!
+doug w Looks like Vinnie Vincent?
Same here.
same here
Roxy Petrucci
doug w I went from liken Partridge Family songs to Rolling Stones, Led Zepplin, Allman Brothers, Alice Cooper, I nicknamed Mick Jagger ( A Rooster on Acid ) because of his energy on stage. I had a friend in High School that was devastated when Lynyrd Skynyrd plane crashed.
That lead singer, is simply hotter than the sun
She sure was none she's rock in the here after ..❤ RIP Jan
@@MelissaDavis-s1f Janet Gardner still alive....how did i know? She's my dentist...the one that died is the Lead Guitarust Jan Kuehnemund
Love all these girls!!! Fantastic sound!
God this brings back memories. I grew up with hair bands and metal…played drums since I was 13 and taught myself guitar..several bands that went nowhere, yet still these girls had all the props, loads of talent…and such fun music
