This song was literally the 80's last assault. It was released in 1990. It was a send off for the Hair Metal genre and it was one of the greatest songs to come out of that era and it's still so criminally underrated.
Ha. i met Reb Beach at a guitar clinic and i brought the Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey soundtrack for him to sign. i told him it was "my favorite Winger song" - which is true - but really it's the only Winger song i really like. 😋
I admit, growing up I'm the 80s, high school in the 90s, and being a Metallica, Slayer, Testament, Helloween...fan back then, I made fun of a ton of school mates who wore a Winger shirt. Then, I heard this song in the movie and stayed in the theater (with the lights on by then) to see the song credits. I ran across the street to the mall and bought the soundtrack on cd and made a cassette of it. I took it to school the following Monday and played it to fellow "real metalheads" and asked if they liked it, everyone did. When I told them it was Winger I got shocked faces. I still remember what my best friend Metal Mike said: "yeah, well they still did Miles Away!!"😅😅
Rock has never went away. To claim this, youd have to have your finger on the pulse. Do you go to every gig? Do you purposely seek out labels and records? I do. And the bands out there are fantastic. I do not have enough money to own them all sadly. Try TH-cam channel junkie business he has so many great bands
@@chriskennedy2298 Not this kind though. The rock people know now is either more metal/emo or more shoe store indie commercial. Of course there's always outliers still making the feel-good fun classic rock sound but in today's world they'll never be as big or known as acts like these were, even if they do everything right, even if they make tons of albums that aren't found. It's not enough that people don't listen to stuff like this anymore, but they also demonize and insult those who try. They label it buttrock or arena and it gets discouraged from being made by people like those on reddit, stopping the band from even forming while they're taught to all sound the same, and don't use reverb for one. We're living in a brainwashed world that didn't resist the preprogrammed morons and computer sleeze. I mean White Reaper - Fog Machine kinda sounds like this vibe and sounds great even live--even if their production is still more modern than this, but do you know who they are? Are they topping the charts?
Truly Truly Good Time Music.......Remember cruising around in my Pick Up back in the 80's listing to this........Now 57 and still cruising in my Pick Up listening to this! ..........Most Excellent !
serious question: why did everyone rip on Winger for being sissy rock? (Like it was the running gag in Beavis and Butthead having the nerdy kid Stewart with his winger t-shirt.) This song is pure badass rock
Sissy rock? I remember nothing wrong with Winger nor the many other hair bands back in the late 80s & 90s. Winger had some great hits. You have to remember that Beavis & Butthead's music bits often roasted the music played & the artists.
Kip Winger was the poster child for hair metal pretty boys and Beavis and Butthead used that for a lot of their jokes because in their eyes rock and metal had to be hardcore and they had (in the show) the notion that if you weren't Metallica, Slayer, AC/DC, or something similar you were stupid, lame, or probably homosexual. It was nothing against the music itself but the projected image at the time.
ContinueToBe 172 Keanu and (can't remember his name) want to and have been talking about it. Too old to rock out and time travel? Tell that to KISS, AC/DC, Tom Petty, Peter Capaldi, ZZ Top... Need I go on?
this is one my favorite songs from winger. Keanu is a good actor and I like Keanu in Bill and Ted, Point Breeak, Speed, White Clouds, Matrix, Chain Reaction, Replacements and more.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for uploading a high quality version of this! The only other ones I've seen on youtube are shitty quality and of course it's not on iTunes. You have made my day.
I saw Slaughter in a bar some years ago. I was yelling my head off for them to play Shout it Out from the soundtrack.They didn't play it but rocked that bar till closing time.
Why the F&*K do I have to listen to this masterpiece on YT?????? WTF Spotify! This is PERFECT 80's metal. It's awesome, fun, great attitude, fun lyrics, and great music. What a travesty! THIS IS ROCK AND ROLL.
July 28 2022 can't come soon enough. They're playing at Caesar's Casino in Windsor Ontario (along with Warrant and Skid Row) and tickets are very reasonable prices. It'll be my first time seeing them live. 🤘

Kip and the rest of the boys... The lyrics of this song can NEVER be understood by anyone who hasn't spend their free time, sex time, anytime, away from working on guitar! I get it... I started when I was 10... was hooked. Now I'm 50. Never stopped, just... Wish I had had more time to just PLAY when I had to work to live. Uhg!
I gotta 98 -built a system for it - Kenwood cd. Alpine door speakers, Planet Audio 12's, Planet Audio 12oo watt amp . Planet audio bass processor -sounds really good
Nostalgia overkill! TOTALLY remember watching Bogus Journey back in 91' or 92' after we rented it from Blockbuster. I totally remember the Bill & Ted Bogus Journey movie poster, and standing cardboard cutout of Arnold with his red eye from T2 in Blockbuster! Same year or so (91-92), remember we picked up Terminator 2 & Suburban Commando and ordered pizza! What an epic night that was for myself as a 3-4-year-old! Lol, I also blasting this a lot in 2012+ while playing World of Tanks! TAKE NO PRISONERS, OPEN FIRE, BATTLE STATIONS!
A most bodacious song, dude. Was reminded of this when I just saw Bill and Ted face the music, and so I decided to go on a memory trip back when music was good. Cant crank Billy Eilish in a convertible, know what Im saying?
Most heinous that this masterpiece isn't on Spotify
OMG I literally came here for this very reason. Was not expecting to see a comment about it xD
You fuckers, it's not our fault the rest of us that aren't hardcore fans only like this song. You make me come to TH-cam to listen to your shit. LAME.
check bill and ted bogus journey soundtrack, might be labelled under that
Thank you!!!😭😭
Dude, it's Spotify!
THEY ARE the preprogrammed morons that are trying to brainwash you!!!
(Just ask Joe Rogan, re: Neil Young)

The 80`s Last assault .Cool. Sounds like an action movie Arnie would have starred in!
@@firststrikegames1153 First Strike Games sounds awesome as well.
Watched Bill & Teds Bogus Journey today (for like the 15th time) and I don’t think I ever paid attention to how good this song is. Most excellent!
Righteous
Heinous.
Okay, you're alright you are.
Quite literally me, just now. Indeed, this was a most excellent find, rather, a re-find, duder.
Station!
It's heinous not to have this most outstanding song on spotify :(
most, heinous
No shit.. His best work to date
A most non-heinous tune from Winger!
Station

Totally non Bogus.
Maddie it's better than MTV and VH1 thanks!!!
Ha.
i met Reb Beach at a guitar clinic and i brought the Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey soundtrack for him to sign.
i told him it was "my favorite Winger song" - which is true -
but really it's the only Winger song i really like.

Gohan335i7 dude! Same haha

This song has been stuck in my head for the last 27 years and only yesterday did i think to look it up.
Its sad this kind of music wont be made anymore. Long live rock
It can come back only somone who has that soul to rock like this can bring it back
Rock has never went away.
To claim this, youd have to have your finger on the pulse. Do you go to every gig? Do you purposely seek out labels and records?
I do. And the bands out there are fantastic. I do not have enough money to own them all sadly.
Try TH-cam channel junkie business he has so many great bands
A lot of Scandinavian bands are keeping it alive. Some damn good ones too

One of the greatest winger tunes. Party on dude
I can’t even imagine living when this type of music was being made and put on the radio. Man I need a time machine!!
Truly Truly Good Time Music.......Remember cruising around in my Pick Up back in the 80's listing to this........Now 57 and still cruising in my Pick Up listening to this! ..........Most Excellent !

Loved this song as a kid, love it as an adult

They also ripped on hair metal bands like Poison.
Kip Winger was the poster child for hair metal pretty boys and Beavis and Butthead used that for a lot of their jokes because in their eyes rock and metal had to be hardcore and they had (in the show) the notion that if you weren't Metallica, Slayer, AC/DC, or something similar you were stupid, lame, or probably homosexual. It was nothing against the music itself but the projected image at the time.
I think it was because the lead guy had a small dick but the song is good
I think Winger came late in the game for this type of music and everyone viewed it as the real Steel Panther
This is the first time I've listened to Winger, I love my Priest, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer but this is awesome!!
Winger is a really good band. Still make great music
I now own 3 of their albums and this soundtrack!
shamrock32 two of their albums are a little tricky to obtain physical copies: Winger IV and Karma.
Hey, we’re allowed to like them all. Lol.
@@brendansenior5181 Their two best albums, IMHO!
Why can't i have this on my Spotify :(
Same
Tell me about it
Same this song is awesome
😢😢
Just buy the fucking cd.
The riffs in this song...Glorious.
Best Winger song ever
BILL AND TED 3! MAKE IT HAPPEN!
Amen, brother.
Party on, dude! \m/ \m/

Search Bill and Ted Face the Music
Man this song brings me back to when i was a kid. Gives me goosebumps.
I imagine paradise feels like the first minute of this song.
FUCKING AMEN!
I know I would pick up some rock music in Bill and Ted Journey! Now this is my cup of 80s rock music!
1 of the BEST Voices EVER!!!
As a kid watching bill and Ted and rocking to this track. Now 40 and such a good tune. Remember signing it with my pals as young lads
This is one of the best soundtracks ever made, pure late 80s/ early 90s rock!
MOST TRIUMPHANT!!
It is a CRIME that this isn't available on Spotify
He melvined me
this is one my favorite songs from winger. Keanu is a good actor and I like Keanu in Bill and Ted, Point Breeak, Speed, White Clouds, Matrix, Chain Reaction, Replacements and more.
John Wick
You forgot John Wick.
Johnny Mnemonic
Winger are the rock version of toto. Talented session musicians making great music which some thought as cheesy but years later still really popular.
I like "Winger are the Dream Theater of glam."
Best version of the song on TH-cam.
Agreed!
ive been waiting for this song to be on spotify for years. jesus christ...
Perfect song for a soundtrack. Catchy as hell and the more you watch the film the more you love it.
Don't overlook my butt. I work out all the time. And reaping burns lots of calories.
Death!?
Lol
"I made the wigs. I helped with the shopping. I pushed the cart."
Should i put this on my playlist. .........hell yes
YESS! Bill n Ted Bogus Journey themesong !!
At home on either the debut or II. This is what we love about Winger. The core sound.
I was never really a big 80s metal fan. But this song is awesome.
Then WTF is wrong is with u
You should listen to more '80's metal, then.
Dont listen to that grind core guy hes a drug addict. You should listen to electric Frankenstein, all the cool people do
80s rock and metal is the best music ever made!
This is not metal
definitely one of winger best songs ever
THANK YOU SO MUCH for uploading a high quality version of this! The only other ones I've seen on youtube are shitty quality and of course it's not on iTunes. You have made my day.
You're welcome, thanks for watching (listening to)
Also in case you were wondering, It's not on Google Play or Spotify either :(
@@gambit123321 that's why I came here :(
*Bill and Ted's bogus journey* brought me back here 🤘
Most Out Standing
When was the last time Winger ever played this? They need to dig it up.
I saw Slaughter in a bar some years ago. I was yelling my head off for them to play Shout it Out from the soundtrack.They didn't play it but rocked that bar till closing time.
They opened last night’s set in St. Charles with Battle Stations!
They opened up their set in Biloxi to this last night! (5/12/2022)
They must have heard you because they've been opening with this song quite often the last couple years!
Reb Beach is such a monster guitarist
Amen to that. So underrated. He’s vai/satriani standard
I met Reb Beach twice. Love him forever. All class
BE EXCELLENT TO EACH OTHER!!!!! The world would be a far better place to live in if everyone lived by such words of wisdom. Oh, and rock on!!!
winger is awesome. i still have one of their old cassette tapes for a long time now.
Why the F&*K do I have to listen to this masterpiece on YT?????? WTF Spotify! This is PERFECT 80's metal. It's awesome, fun, great attitude, fun lyrics, and great music. What a travesty! THIS IS ROCK AND ROLL.
lol I'll never forget the day I found out this was Winger. Had they kept up this style I probably would have actually liked them. Chorus is amazing.
I brought the B&TBJ soundtrack in 1992 solely for this song. Only place I could find it. Excellent song
I love Winger so very much.
I LOVE THIS SONG!
Their best song
STATION!!!!!! how's it going, Robot Bill? XD
how's it going?
+Lee Gerrin party on, dude! XD
hows it goooin 👍
July 28 2022 can't come soon enough. They're playing at Caesar's Casino in Windsor Ontario (along with Warrant and Skid Row) and tickets are very reasonable prices. It'll be my first time seeing them live. 🤘
Totally imagine being on the music express with this song playing!!! Long live carnival rides!!!
Love this song
This song is so awesome. Kip Winger is a Boss
From the Lyric sheet(CD liner, Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey Soundtrack):
Breakin' out
I'm on a mission
Been caught between heaven and hell
My guitar is
My ammunition
Raise the flag, sound the mission bell
Everybody always wants control of me
The only way to get it's over my dead body
Take no prisoner
Open Fire
Battle station
Someone's trying to brainwash me
Battle station
Six-string shooter
Hear it screaming
Slicing your head like a laser beam
It's true love
When I'm cranking the metal(!!!!)
It makes me, makes me, makes me cream
Never let you get between me and my guitar
No use to keep trying, you won't get very far
Take no prisoner
Open fire
Battle station
Someone's trying to brainwash me
Battle station
Open fire
Raise your fist
Battle station
It's the season to resist
Battle station
Never let you get between me and my guitar
No use to keep trying, you won't get very far
Take no prisoners, open fire on the
Preprogrammed morons
Computer sleeze
Thank you for posting this! Legit quality!!
Thank you

Another awesome song from Winger.
I remember this song....great!!!

Just seen these guys live at The Vault 2 nights ago & they still freaking jam & sound great.
And oh yeah, they did this song too! Which brought me back to my search for it.
I love you WINGER 🎸🇺🇲❤️
EXCELLENT##!!!
They needed to make a live video of this awesome song.
Battle stations all troops of the highest order NOW!
Pretty much the only reason I bought the soundtrack CD to this movie was to have a copy of this song.
This song is not available on Spotify and I don't understand why??? It's one of my favorite songs of all time!
Whatever people can say about the Bill and Ted's movies....the soundtracks fucking rocked!
Excellent
Amazing tune but not on iTunes or any of the big players! Quality tune.
Surprised it never got on any of their albums
Luv it!
Excellent! 🐸⚔️🐸
Most non heinous!
⚔️
Party On, Dudes!
People who don't like this song must have gotten melvin'd *air guitars*
This tune is quite rightous. Rock on dudes.
Really dig Kip wearing a Sacred Reich T-shirt! Totally badass
