This song came off the BEST Def Leppard album "High N Dry". It was their 2nd album and was released in 1981. The band is very young in this vid The drummer was 17 in this. The guitarists were the original duo. Pete Willis (founder of the band) the shorter one who was let go in 1982 because he was missing gigs and practice dealing with alcohol abuse. Steve Clark, of course, died from alcohol poisoning in 1991. This song was a huge breakthrough track for them. I love this whole album.
Love that album it was their best in my opinion. "Let it Go" and "Mirror Mirror" are other great ones off this album.
Such a great album!
Great LP
Pete Willis had riffs... no offense to Phil, just Pete was a way different style than anyone who came after in the band
They came out in the late 70s. I first heard them in 1979 when I was 15. The drummer started when he was 15. This group defined a whole new generation. We just partied to it and the girls just let loose. AC/DC came just at the same time. Then welcome to the 80s. Cool was it.
One of the greatest rock and roll stories of all time, Rick Allen played what is called "traditional sticking" with his left hand, his snare hitting arm. After his accident he obviously was deeply depressed, languishing in a hospital bed for months, his band mates did not, would not, leave him behind; they could have easily found a dozen drummers to take his place, surely their record company tried to steer them in that direction, yet they would not relent, they could not just leave their friend behind, even as Rick was like "F all of this, I'm done!" They did not leave him behind...they then became one of the biggest rock bands of their era once they released Hysteria...that story always chokes me up a bit.
This was their first, debut, 1981 album. Their average age was about 18 (you mentioned the 12-year-old look 😂) but they already sounded like veterans. No wonder Def Leppard is so successful still nowadays. And yes, it was much before Rick Allen lost his arm in 1984
This is their 2nd album. They had "On Through the Night" in 1980
On this album, Rick was 17, Joe was 21, the others were 19-20
First off all, let me say it does my heart good to see you enjoy music that meant so much to me. I was 17 and in love. Had my first car. '65 Mustang. A senior at Denton High School and just happy to be alive. Definitely the most defining moments of my life. Def Lepard was 2nd only in popularity to Van Halen. And that is based on actual science. The concert T shirts in the halls at school said it all. The drawings on homemade book covers were these, and in this order. Van Halen, Def Lepard, AC/DC and OZZY. There were 2000 students in that school. And these bands, t shirts, drawings, and car audio evidence, showed how big Rock music was in the 1980s. I was there for it all. Great reactions guys.
I think the easiest way to understand them is that they had metal for the guys, but wrote love songs for the girls. And that’s how they became so popular.
This song goes into another killer instrumental track called "Switch 625", must listen to that, the radio stations sometimes would play this, then it fades into "625" on the vinyl, sometimes they'd end it at "Bringin..." but it's such a cool jam
Two Songs absolutely worth listening to are Too Late for Love and Gods of War both from In the Round Concert. Classic Def Leppard sound that is a must!!!😎👍🎸
Leppard....when they 1st started. That came out in 81.
I'm pretty sure that was their first hit that put them on the map.
"A track from Def Leppard's second album High 'n' Dry, "Bringin' On the Heartbreak" was written by their guitarists Steve Clark and Pete Willis along with lead singer Joe Elliott. It's a big rock ballad with a heartache theme: Elliott sings about a girl who won't let him into her heart. A mysterious and unconstrained creature she is, driving him wild with her laughin' eyes. He can't stop thinking about her, but she's draining him, and soon he'll have nothing left to give."
Yes, that was it. He was screaming about teen angst, young love and heart break.
Not unlike Nirvana for my son’s generation.
Bands like these gave us an emotional release and understanding in commonalities.
They put lyrics and music to the thoughts of our hearts (desire, fear, pain, truth, sorrow, anger, etc).
We felt it, if it was applicable.
I wouldn’t have been able to put that emotion into my own words as a teenager but Joe made it acceptable to sing about at the top of our lungs.
I was 11 when this album dropped. 2 years later Pyromania was on my turntable and Joe Elliot was a poster on my wall.
They were heavily influenced by Led Zepplin yet understood how to mix their sound into a changing pop/rock culture.
There’s a great VH1 Behind The Music docu that perfectly explains the band and their sound.
Anthony Michael Hall plays Mutt Lange who tweaked their vocal style pushing them toward commercial production for the larger mtv audience.
If you can find it, please consider Reacting to it.
Song first came out in 1981, then released in 1984...never charted in the United States, but def a diamond in the rough.
Love Bites & Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad are two BEAUTIFUL Love ballads y’all need to check out! 🥰
Being 57, I first heard this song when I was like 15. I was walking through Ala Moana shopping center in Waikiki and some store had a tv in the window playing this exact video. It was before MTV, so music videos were a rarity. I was mesmerized and knew I wanted to be a guitar player at that moment. It did not trigger anything about a relationship for me… just pure rock and roll.
This song was their first release, and did not chart on the hot 100, but may be their best song. Released in 1981
I was 18 when this was released in 1981. Lucas was right when he said the guitar in the background sounded mystical. I would characterize it as a Gothic feel. I went to see them in concert a few years later, after Rick lost his arm. They were set up "in the round", which means the audience surrounded the stage. There was no backstage. It was an under the stage backstage and it rotated as they played. Not a bad seat in the house.
I was 10 years old when this album was released in 1981
The guitarist with short curly hair is Pete Willis and he was with them for the albums "On Through the Night", and "High and Dry".
His time with the band came to an end because of alcohol abuse and stage freight.
Shortly after High and Dry was released, they released a second run of the album with a second version of "Bringing On the Heartbreak" which featured a synthesizer on the ifntro, prechoruses, and choruses.
They also releaased a second video for the song which featured their "new" guitarist, Phil Collen.
Not long after, they re-released "On Through the Night" with bonus track "Me and My Wine" which included Phil in the video as well.
Rick Allen in collaboration with D-Drum created his drum set which features special triggers on the pads and a series of pedals that he uses with his left foot in place of his missing left arm.
And can you believe he's actually done drum SOLOS?!
After the accident, they tried multiple times to leave the arm and at one point it got so bad that they had no choice but to remove even the small stub he had left.
The band agreed they wanted nothing to do with replacing him. Instead, they gave him the option of making that decision himself.
I’m 58 years old this is the only band that I listened to for 45 years
“Mirror Mirror (Look Into My Eyes)” by Def Lep off the High ‘n’ Dry album is just sick! You two would love it. The bass just blows my mind. 🎸Been listening to it on repeat all week. Early Def Lep killed it! 🔥🤘🏼🇬🇧
Mirror, Mirror is my absolute favorite Def Leppard song ❤
I saw them when this came out. I used to listen to it everyday. It was and still is a great song. Glad to see younger people listening to it. 1980
Early 80's. I was a teen at that time. Yeah, this was a good song to play when your crush didn't return your feelings.
As far as I know this was their first U.S hit& the first video to hit MTV; after this they were everywhere!!
The song came out in 1981, which, in my opinion, was one of the best years in rock history: Urgent by Foreigner came out
that year; Stroke by Billy Squier came out that year; Bringin’ on the Heartbreak by Def Leppard, came out that year; Stop Dragging My Heart Around by Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty came out that year; Working for the Weekend by Loverboy came out that year; Who’s Crying Now by Journey; Tom Sawyer by Rush; Keep on Loving You by REO Speedwagon; Woman by John Lennon.
I was 13 in 81. ( yes thumbnail is recent ) I can remember being shocked that the drummer was only four years older than me. I was just starting to win local talent contests / get parts in local theater. I identified with Rick going after what he wanted so young. Side Note...I am also a wheelchair user from birth. I was very happy for him. Some years later. When he didn't let life changes. ( in his case an accident ) Stop him. Life is change. It's a reality everyone deals with. BTW There is nothing inherently sad, or bad, about disability. Neither positive, or negative. It simply is. The experience of it. However. Is singular / an individual one. No two people experience anything in life. The same way. Other people's perceptions of someone's reality. Can engender fear, & prejudice. Becoming obstacles we need to push past. ( I am only speaking for me now ) Disability is as much a part of me. As brown hair. Blue eyes, a sarcastic wit, & my innate talent / ability to sing. A defining characteristic / bedrock of identity. All of which shapes my worldview. In part. Making me. ME. My wheelchair & crutches are tools. They grant freedom, independence, access. A rich life. I'm neither trapped. Nor sad. Wishing to be someone else, or trying ( futilely) to overcome an immutable, objective reality. I like who I am, & all of what has shaped her. Finally. ( me speaking again ) In this context to overcome. Suggests our very existence is wrong. Undesirable, & of no value. personal affront aside. The magnitude of fear driven bias it reveals is stunning. it is that bias many of us are banging up against / overcoming. Not disability. As long as there is life. There will be disability. ( anyone planning to age? ) It is a universal experience. Part of the natural order. Universal design is readily achievable. That requires facing human vulnerability / unpredictability. Ultimately ourselves, & the Shit happens nature of life. Erasing us. Via pity, devaluation, or separation. Dehumanization / othering. Is easier.
Love this song! Love all Def Leppard songs!
This is the band that we drove around the backroads of our small town to while we partied!! Unforgettable ❤😊
Rock of Ages is a must reaact to song!!
Good music is good music no matter when it came out, so much good stuff from the 80s and 90s. So many groups and solo artists came and went.
You should definitely visit more of the second and first album too. They were very young when they started. I think the youngest was 16 maybe 15 when they first got together. I was in high school when this came out. It was considered a "banger" even as a slow song. We played this whole album cruisin, chillin, or with our girls. Great times. No cameras, no social media. Just jams. Thanx for the reaction.
Leps got signed to record labels in their teens 16 Rick Allen, 18 Sav/Steve/Pete, 19 Joe.
Final group standing started age 15-17-18. In such a short time forming Leps got signed to a record label…now…compare that from the bands that came out from England and from Los Angeles/USA…unheard of…
You guys have to do Wasted, Hello America’s, Overture, Gotcha Rocks Off……Leps early stuff just wee teenagers.
Pete Willis, who co-founded the band, is only 5 feet, 2 inches tall, so that makes him look 12. LOL. He was asked to leave the band due to his alcoholism; one drink, Rick Allen said, would completely change his personality. However, all of these guys were in their teens when this video was filmed. Rick Allen was 16 and joined the band when he was 15. NO band has shown this much talent so early in their careers.
Oh man, I was 19 when this hit MTV and I was a fan big time!! This taping was done in 79 I believe. The guitar player you did recognize was Pete, he was kicked out and replaced with Phil.
Pete Willis is the guitarist you don't recognize. He played on the first 2 albums (On Through The Night and High n Dry). He was replaced by Phil Collen on their 3rd album (Pyromania) and remains with the band to this day.
I grew up in the middle of nowhere that could only get reception from one AM radio station and it definitely was not rock. So Def Leppard came into my life more around the days of Pyromania. They were easily my favorite rock band until the late 80s when Guns n Roses appeared and took the top spot. Anymore it’s hard to even fathom having to work so hard to get music. Driving at least 85 miles just to buy a new tape. The days of Night Tracks on TBS because the cable tv our little town just got didn’t have MTV.
This was music that even now you’re trying to understand since it was part of the legacy of rock! We got it then you see it now. You boys are twins but differ in style. Nice to watch you both along with the videos.
We played it on the record player, the album rocked.
1981. Before I was born. Great song and great reaction. Thanks guys, I love this 🫶🏼
Guys...
Listen to the tribute to Steve Clark the guitarist from Def Leppard that was recorded by Tesla "Song and Emotion"
It's a much ignored gem that encapsulates a very good and much missed friend of theirs 🖤🖤🤘🏻🤘🏻
Easily my favorite song from them.
This is the song that I discovered from Def Leppard that them my most favorite rock band of the '80s. I was in high school when I heard this song and didn't even know it actually came out in 1979 or 80. They are super young I'm talking the drummer was probably late teens?
80s arena rock. Hell I was doing live sound for bar bands 6 nights a week. We did Def Leppard!
Assuming this was filmed in 1981 and approximating their ages by birth year (ignoring months). They were all born between 1957 and 1963.
Joe - Singer was 22 (1959)
Steve and Pete - Guitarists were 21 (1960)
Rick - bassist was 21 (1960)
Rick - drummer was 18 (1963)
Phil (not present) - Guitarist would have been 24 (1957) / he replaced Pete in 1982.
Vivian Campbell (not present) would have been 19 (1962) / he replaced Steve after his death in 1991. At the time of this video Vivian was likely in a band called Dio.
I was 16 when this chit hit the charts.... there was no heartbreak for my crew, we were entrepreneurs, smoked fat joints and played sports.
One of my favorite rock ballads!
Kickass super-song off HighNDry (1981). Classic & timeless!
My favorite def song.
Ok ok, y'all are opening a huge worm hole with this band. Check out VH1 Behind The Music Def Leppard. Its very fun and sad at the same time. This song is from their 2nd album I think. While on a break touring on the 3rd album, the drummer Rick Allen was in a horrific car crash and lost his left arm. Rick Allen possibly invented the first electric drum kit and carried on. Guitarist Steve Clark (the one in white) passed away in 1991. He was somewhat underrated for his time, but he's appreciated now for being a solid rhythm guitarist. RIP Steve Clark
great song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of their best!
Def Leppard formed when they were 15. =)
I was 19 going to work and this song made my day better.
i saw them in concert lol....this may be my favorite song from them
I've seen them in concert dozens of times throughout their career, but it's definitely never lol, I hope you enjoyed this though, from this comment I've probably established myself as old, so what do I know
Rick Allen the Drummer for Def Leppard started with the band when he was 15
I was 13 when this came out. And, my dad played it on a cassette tape. I’ve been diehard fan ever since. I’ve seen them 20+ times, most recently in August this year. They just get better. Check out UNBREAKABLE and This Guitar on their new album Diamond Star Halos.
This was 1981 and I was 8 so it wasn't a break up song for me until later in my life but it hits hard when you go through one
This video shows the band lineup that got the band off the ground. Joe Elliott is the lead vocalist, Rick Savage on bass, Rick Allen on drums, Steve Clark is the blonde on Guitar and Pete Willis is the dark haired guitarist. Pete was fired in 1982 for not showing up to practices because he had a drinking problem. Pete was a major song writing force for the band and was one of the founding members. He was replaced by Phil Collen who is in the band still today. Unfortunately, we lost Steve Clark in 1991 to drugs and alcohol at age 31. He was replaced by Vivian Campbell who is still in the band now. The current lineup of the band has been in place for 31 years!!! They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019. Fortunately, Pete Willis was included due to his significant contribution to the band.
Leps got signed to record labels in their teens 16 Rick Allen, 18 Sav/Steve/Pete, 19 Joe.
Final group standing started age 15-17-18. In such a short time forming Leps got signed to a record label…now…compare that from the bands that came out from England and from Los Angeles/USA…unheard of…
You guys have to do Wasted, Hello America’s, Overture, Gotcha Rocks Off……Leps early stuff just wee teenagers.
DID YOU NOTICE THE DRUMMER? THEY ARE AN AWESOME BAND . ANOTHER BAND THAT 'S AWESOME IS JOURNEY GIVE THEM A TRY 💜
Brilliant song.
High N Dry was released in 1981 so there was a transitional period from the late 70’s style to the 80’s. These guys are young, teens to early twenties. The original guitarists - Steve /drugClark (blonde) died in the mid-80’s after dealing with alcohol overdose in 91. So unfortunate because Def Lep had just peaked with Hysteria in 87 and they had so much ahead. Pete Willis (dark hair) left the band. He couldn’t hack the life of being in a band and was replaced by Phil Collen who is still with them today. Vivian Campbell eventually replaced Steve Clark and is still with them as well. Good reaction to a great tune that does emote so many feelings.
i seen leppard when they 1st came to usa opened up for pat travers
High and Dry was released in 1981
Awesome Tune love it 😍
This song was from 1981. They were Awesome in Concert !!!!! Yes Playlist worthy !
Song came out in 1981. Joe Elliot was 22. Rick Allen was 18. Phil Collin was 24. Rick Savage was 21. Steve Clark, who passed away in 91, was 21
Great reaction. Gotta try the girl rockers...Heart..live.. anything 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Another great rock ballad is White Snake's 'Love Ain't No Stranger'. White Snake is another band you should check out. especially early 80's White Snake.
You must listen to Switch 625 the instrumental that comes right after this song… it is a must!
So good!
Greatest band ever fact
Peter Willis is the short guy on guitar
He is always over looked
But one helluva guitar player
I believe he was 19 back then

Steve Clark and Pete Willis were awesome
Guitarist Steve Clark was the guitarist at thzt time ,i think they were in their 20s rip steve

💜💜💜💜
They were really young here Rick Allen was the youngest he might have been 17-18 here.
Cool beans 😎
Thank you. React to the follow up instrumental, switch 625, which kicks ass.
Released '81, so recorded '80, '81
Def Leppard was my favorite band in high school - wore out Hysteria. Looking back now Def Leppard's fist couple of albums are my favorite. Def is not my favorite ban anymore that wore out after high school. Still good music though overall
Rick allens drums was soecial made for him
That was the original guitarist he was only there for one album believe. thats Steve Clark I think he was 16 or 17
Youngest was drummer Rick Allen he started in the band 15 yrs old
def leppard at their prime,( billy got a gun,) 1983,🤠🤠🤠
Rick Allen was 17 here. He joined when he was 15 and had to get his mamma's permission 😂
😎😎🤩🤩❣❣
You should have let the song Switch play afterwards...it was meant to be this way. 👍
I know you all react to music, however did you ever see Hysteria: The Def Leppard Story (2001), it's pretty good bio movie.
React to Rock of Ages
Good reaction! I would like to see you guys react to some Bon Jovi. ❤️
Also some Skid Row…
Too bad you didn't play the instrumental track Switch 625 that this song leads into. That's the way I heard it back in the day.
Def Leopard Please react to Rock of Ages. Playlist worthy.
Please react to Too Late for Love!! From the Pyromania album!!
So good, even Mariah Carey covered it many years later
1981
