Another vote for 'Something to Believe In", I think it's one of the best songs ever, certainly one of my favs and just as fitting now as it was when it came out. I guess some things never change but just the names.
Every time I hear talk dirty to me I think of the show scrubs. The episode where the guy in the coma wanted to hear this song played because it was his favorite. When the chief of medicine wouldn't let them play it the nurse sang it to the coma patient
Agree 100 percent. And at this moment in my life I cant relate. Lost my wife 10/13/2020. We made it through Afghanistan and the Marines together to get married and then loose her to a long battle with cancer. Just needing something to believe in.
The story goes, he was on the road and had gone to a laundromat to wash clothes. He called home and heard a man's voice in the background. Sat there and wrote "Every Rose Has It,'s Thorn".
Love Poison.One of my favorites.I've seen them many times and it's always a great show.This is one of their ballads,but most of their songs are just fun rock and roll.I agree completely with the earlier comments.Very under-rated.
I love listening to rock ballads! Another good one to listen to by Poison is "Something to Believe in" I know others have mentioned it but I will put in my vote for this one too! It is a must to include it in your reaction journey too along with "Fallen Angel"! When you have a chance though. Peace! ✌☮
I really like one of their less popular songs "Let it Play". They have a lot of good stuff. When I saw them in the 80s the one song I wanted to hear was "Talk Dirty to Me". I was pissed the didn't play it but then they came back for an encore and played it, and all was well with the world.
You've made my year with this video! I've waited and waited for someone to do a reaction to Poison period but this song in particular is one of my all time favorite songs! Thanks for taking the time to watch it and I really hope you'll check out more of their songs!
My favorite ballad when I was 13! Poison was actually my 2nd Rock concert and my first outdoor General admission show. I was allowed to go at 12/13 because my 19yr old sister was going :) Fun memories! Check out Nothin but a good time - that was a fun one to sing along with.
I don't think they're underrated. They were a hit during the 80's, their song top the charts and the fact that this song is still as relevant as when it first released in the 80's proves that they already made their mark in the history of rock. They may not be as recognizable as Metallica or Megadeth but they were on a different category of Metal and it's ok.
@@geebee636 Yeah just sooooo many great bands to listen to in the 80s and they all took their turn it seems on the charts! That is why 80s music is so amazing. We all liked them all and listened to all of them. There was a tape cassette of every band at all the house parties!! 😃
Poison! Absolutely Fun, Fun, Fun Live! Seen them a few times, a blast every single time! 'Something to Believe' In is a must, 'Look What the Cat Dragged In', 'Nothing but a Good Time' 'Stand' are also great! Last time it was Faster Pussycat, Winger, Cinderella & Poison! Went to 3 different cities to catch that one! Great Summer!Thanks for the smiles! 😁💖
You are killing it with all these great 80's songs & reactions! This is another one that came out when I was in the fourth grade that my best friend and I always loved hearing when it would come on the radio. Still a favorite after more than 30 years. Great reaction, man! Keep 'em coming!!
This is your first time hearing Poison ?? Wow ! You have to hear their song "Unskinny Bop" ! It's just a fun song ! " Something to Believe in " is a real feel good tear jerker ! " Nothing But a Good Time " is an upbeat party anthem !
Another of the great 80s hair bands. And another song that still gets played a LOT on Classic Rock radio. I still have my long hair. I keep hoping hair bands will rise again!
Everyone I knew in college who could pick up a guitar played this till their fingers were raw. Didn’t need much vocal range. Sure got a lot of mileage. Good time.
few other Poison songs that are a must add to any playlist. Something To Believe In, Unskinny Bop, Your Momma Don't Dance, I Want Action, Talk Dirty To Me, Ride The Wind. all of these you'll add to certain playlists... trust me lol
Absolute fav song of this band. I think its just a simple message, gotta take the bad with the good cause thats life. It just feels like the most honest, vulnerable almost poetic song from any band or singer. 💜❤💙!
Listened to this one for the first time in a long while earlier tonight and then I see you upload your reaction a few hours later haha must be on the same wavelength 😂
@@KathleenActonHA Oh ABSOLUTELY! If I could Sebastian Bach's hair circa "I'll remember you" I would walk down the sidewalk swinging that mane everyday for no reason whatsoever. lol
One reason I love reactions is to see how others interpret the song. Sometimes they sync with what the artist intended and other times they find a meaning all their own. I think that is one of the joys of music is how we find our own meaning in it sometimes. I took the line of Every Rose has its thorn as in that even something of great beauty can cause you pain. So here they have this relationship which should be a beautiful thing, but they seem to still hurt each other in it. Every night has it's dawn, The cycle and inevitability perhaps. Every cowboy sings a sad sad son, as in it is what it is. Which I think this song is about a breakup. So they had a beautiful romance, but hurt each other and it was inevitable that it would end and it is what it is. haha okay Im rambling now. Thanks for sharing with us!
I've gone to watch Poison at least 5 different times in my life. With some of the greatest rock bands of all times. But hands down, the best show, Poison opening for Kiss. Have Mercy all the women everywhere......
My favorite Poison songs are Life Goes On, Fallen Angel, Something to Believe In, Cry Tough, I Won’t Forget You, Talk Dirty to Me, Nothin’ But a Good Time, and of course Every Rose Has its Thorn.
OMG YES!!!!!!!! One of my favorite bands to work with!!!! Jani could be a twit but the rest of the band was great.... Esp Billy Morris great guy down to earth, always respectful.
CC is great. There are so many poison songs that are great. Definitely one of the best hair bands from the 80/90’s. Look at Failen Angel or Talk Dirty to Me (a cover but amazing version)
Fun fact. Slash from Guns n Roses was supposed to be the guitarist but refused to do the "Glam Rock" CC was hired as most of the first album was written by him, meaning he had already written the songs just needed a band to do them. Also right before the audition Slash went into a "vintage"store across the street to kill some time. Saw the stovepipe hat, fell in love with it and the rest is history. This is my go to song for Kareokee. Also Something to believe in.
Have only missed them once since the 80s. Was taken to the emergency room from alcohol poisoning cause a bar that we stopped at was using triple shots in my drink. 2 and i was done for a while
Nothin But A Good Time next please.... that's how Brett Michael's is live as well...seen him at our small town fall fest, he promised he would be back the next year and he did come back. Both times I was about. 20 feet from the stage. The 2nd time, he had everyone light our lighters in the air while they flew a drone over us and filming us for a project he was working on... wish I could find it, was so cool... he also brought several veterans on stage with him... He is an awesome guy. Thanks.
He is basically saying every road has it's heartaches and pains. Life is like that. Someone always gets hurts. There is beauty in being in love,but there is the heartache if it doesn't work out.
You can't have Poison without "Nothing But A Good Time"
Yeah he needs to hear that or "talk dirty to me" great stuff.
FINALLY! Someone picks up Poison. Nothin But A Good Time is great! Fun band and great tunes.
Cc Deville is an underrated guitarist his playing and solos were great
4 sure!
Extremely underrated. This entire band was. Personally they are in my top 5
👏👏👏
He’s in my top 5! His work on Life Goes On is epic!
Damn Straight
Another vote for 'Something to Believe In", I think it's one of the best songs ever, certainly one of my favs and just as fitting now as it was when it came out. I guess some things never change but just the names.
Love my 80's hair bands. Poison's Something to believe in , is also a great song
This was one of the best power rock ballads back in the day. Great song.
“Something to believe in” by Poison
Love this song. It's never been off my playlist. It's literally on my phone now.
Same here
A fun song by Poison is "Talk Dirty To Me".
I love that song !
A fun song by Poison is a long list.
Every time I hear talk dirty to me I think of the show scrubs. The episode where the guy in the coma wanted to hear this song played because it was his favorite. When the chief of medicine wouldn't let them play it the nurse sang it to the coma patient
To me "Something to Believe in" is their best song.
You are correct sir!
I agree.. so sad..
Agree 100 percent. And at this moment in my life I cant relate. Lost my wife 10/13/2020. We made it through Afghanistan and the Marines together to get married and then loose her to a long battle with cancer. Just needing something to believe in.
That and nothing but a good timr
I think he should react to the original, but I'd also love to see a reaction to the acoustic version with revised lyrics. Both are terrific.
My favorite song by Poison. Such a beautiful song and sadly true. TY!
Poison is amazing! I can't tell you how many times I played this song when it came out!! Welcome to the house of Poison! 🙌🙌🙌🙌👌👌👌
Saw these guys so many times. They killed it every time 🤘🏻🤘🏻
"Nothing But A Good Time" is a fun song by Poison. Super catchy & great guitar work. You'd like it, Jay!!
The story goes, he was on the road and had gone to a laundromat to wash clothes. He called home and heard a man's voice in the background. Sat there and wrote "Every Rose Has It,'s Thorn".
@drag0nfly_girl 😅✌
Thats a whole other song. I might try to write that,lol.
The last one I wrote was called "Let Me Count the Ways(I don't love you)"
Love Poison.One of my favorites.I've seen them many times and it's always a great show.This is one of their ballads,but most of their songs are just fun rock and roll.I agree completely with the earlier comments.Very under-rated.
I love listening to rock ballads! Another good one to listen to by Poison is "Something to Believe in" I know others have mentioned it but I will put in my vote for this one too! It is a must to include it in your reaction journey too along with "Fallen Angel"! When you have a chance though. Peace! ✌☮
One of my favorite rock ballads. Beautiful.
You need to react to "Fallen Angel".
I hope he reacts to that song next for Poison or “Talk Dirty to Me “
Fallen Angel is their best song.
J would love the drums in Fallen Angel
Mr. C.C. Deville on lead guitar. Pretty solid.
C. C. Deville seriously underrated and it's sad because he is a great guitarist
Yay Poison now you need to try Motley Crue .
Best band in the world. My favorite 🎸🎸🎸🎸🤘🏻🔥🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻
"Talk Dirty to Me." Classic.
I really like one of their less popular songs "Let it Play". They have a lot of good stuff. When I saw them in the 80s the one song I wanted to hear was "Talk Dirty to Me". I was pissed the didn't play it but then they came back for an encore and played it, and all was well with the world.
If I have the song right, I think title of that one is "Let it Play". That was always a catchy one to me.
@@randall-king I believe you are right. I like how it starts out , where they sing, and then i guess Brett says "Something like that "
You've made my year with this video! I've waited and waited for someone to do a reaction to Poison period but this song in particular is one of my all time favorite songs! Thanks for taking the time to watch it and I really hope you'll check out more of their songs!
Let's get this party started...please react to "Nothin' But A Good Time" 🤘🏾 Oh, add "Talk Dirty to Me" to the list too.
CC Deville is the Guitarist. My favorite.
My favorite ballad when I was 13! Poison was actually my 2nd Rock concert and my first outdoor General admission show. I was allowed to go at 12/13 because my 19yr old sister was going :) Fun memories! Check out Nothin but a good time - that was a fun one to sing along with.

Very, great live band!
@@geebee636 never got into Megadeath but Metallica is amazing.
@@RPostVideos I like them both although I like Megadeth a little more. Megadeth's album "Rust In Peace" are one of the best
First time seeing anyone react to a Poison song. Was wondering if that day would ever come. Thanks J
First band I ever saw live, way back in the 80s. They were amazing live. And they still are... You never forget your first love. ❤
Poison! Absolutely Fun, Fun, Fun Live! Seen them a few times, a blast every single time! 'Something to Believe' In is a must, 'Look What the Cat Dragged In', 'Nothing but a Good Time' 'Stand' are also great! Last time it was Faster Pussycat, Winger, Cinderella & Poison!

Look What The Cat Dragged In by Poison please.
This is your first time hearing Poison ?? Wow ! You have to hear their song "Unskinny Bop" ! It's just a fun song ! " Something to Believe in " is a real feel good tear jerker ! " Nothing But a Good Time " is an upbeat party anthem !
Welcome to the world of the hair band Power Ballads. Most every group like Poison had at least one.
EVEN KISS!!!!!!
@@barbaracriss667 Yep, "Beth". Short, but great song.
This is such a great song, timeless. Great pick Bro!
This song is so cool, that guitar man, is epic...
Slash once auditioned for Poison, but was told he wasn't pretty enough. True story.
That sir is Mr CC DEVILLE and he makes them SING. one of my favorite electric guitarists ever. Dude is super dope. Great reaction
Another of the great 80s hair bands. And another song that still gets played a LOT on Classic Rock radio. I still have my long hair. I keep hoping hair bands will rise again!
FINALLY! Poison ❤️🎶
Something to Believe In
It’s a must.
Everyone I knew in college who could pick up a guitar played this till their fingers were raw. Didn’t need much vocal range.
Sure got a lot of mileage.
Good time.
This song is really special for me!
few other Poison songs that are a must add to any playlist. Something To Believe In, Unskinny Bop, Your Momma Don't Dance, I Want Action, Talk Dirty To Me, Ride The Wind. all of these you'll add to certain playlists... trust me lol
My favorite Poison song. I was 11 when it came out. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Video filmed in Green Bay and Madison Wi. My first concert ever and they filmed parts of the video, a great night for sure.
This band could rock out & serve a great power ballad. Love these guys!
So much emotion in this. This song was everywhere.. ahh the 80's. 80's and 90's my favorite eras of music.
I remember when this was released like it was yesterday.at one point this was my all time favorite song
Yes indeady, knew u'd like that one! Txs for checking it out... 👍👍👍
As much as I love this song when he sits up and sighs in the beginning just says it all
Absolute fav song of this band. I think its just a simple message, gotta take the bad with the good cause thats life. It just feels like the most honest, vulnerable almost poetic song from any band or singer. 💜❤💙!
Old school song. Memories
Haha you crack me up! “Today we’ll be reacting to some poison” 😆
This always hits me so deep. In floods of tears right now
POISON ... still the best Party Glam Rock band to see LIVE in concert !
Absolutely 🤘🏻🤘🏻
OH this song! ♥️ Never will forget the words on this masterpiece. I’ll be 80 and still able to belt out every word! Lol
Ohhhh yes!!!! Love this song!!!☮️
Poison was a style trend too everyone wanted their look in dress ware...their clothing look. And of course the 80s hair.
???
Listened to this one for the first time in a long while earlier tonight and then I see you upload your reaction a few hours later haha must be on the same wavelength 😂
Ah back when rockers were prettier than the girls in their videos lol
I miss pretty hair band bad ass rockers. Those were the days.
@@Awall79 i was and still am jealous of their beautiful hair
@@KathleenActonHA Oh ABSOLUTELY! If I could Sebastian Bach's hair circa "I'll remember you" I would walk down the sidewalk swinging that mane everyday for no reason whatsoever. lol
LMFAO! I know COZ I was a NewWaver
Eric Carmen has some of the best 80's hair
Every rose and every life has its thorn
Wow Jovaughn! Love your take on this!
One reason I love reactions is to see how others interpret the song. Sometimes they sync with what the artist intended and other times they find a meaning all their own.

it's about the battles and exchanges we make . With the good comes the bad.
Great song. Talk Dirty To Me is a fun, 80’s style hit too.
Love this song and poison in general.
❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love this song ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Talk Dirty to Me is a great one to react to. Thanks Jays ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Hey Jayvee, you should react to SPACE ODDITY, by DAVID BOWIE
I've gone to watch Poison at least 5 different times in my life. With some of the greatest rock bands of all times. But hands down, the best show, Poison opening for Kiss. Have Mercy all the women everywhere......
This is the song that got Bill and Ted along with Death into heaven.
Hey, sometimes relationships don't work! This is my favorite Poison song and video! C.C. DeVille is awesome with that guitar solo!!
Definitely more POISON! Songs are listed throughout the comments.
CeCe Deville on guitar. One of the best. Another great Reaction!
My favorite Poison songs are Life Goes On, Fallen Angel, Something to Believe In, Cry Tough, I Won’t Forget You, Talk Dirty to Me, Nothin’ But a Good Time, and of course Every Rose Has its Thorn.
"Heaven" by Warrant
OMG YES!!!!!!!! One of my favorite bands to work with!!!! Jani could be a twit but the rest of the band was great.... Esp Billy Morris great guy down to earth, always respectful.
Brett Michaels did one of those reality shows where female contestants would do things to win his heart.
Poison, Something to believe in and also Nothing but a good time
I seen them on this tour in 1989, Tesla was the opening act. I was 17yrs. old, man I feel old.lol
Nothing but a good time and something to believe in are also great songs
Great song selections tonight!
Check out Breathe "How can i fall?" "Don't tell me lies" "Hands to heaven"
One of the funnest most underrated bands of alltime!
Enuff Z Nuff
CC is great. There are so many poison songs that are great. Definitely one of the best hair bands from the 80/90’s. Look at Failen Angel or Talk Dirty to Me (a cover but amazing version)
I had their poster on my wall! 😜
Could you please react to Poison "Give me something to Believe in"
I love this song, it’s from my young childhood
Fun fact. Slash from Guns n Roses was supposed to be the guitarist but refused to do the "Glam Rock" CC was hired as most of the first album was written by him, meaning he had already written the songs just needed a band to do them.

I like the guitar riffs, there pretty hot. One decent song.
Have only missed them once since the 80s. Was taken to the emergency room from alcohol poisoning cause a bar that we stopped at was using triple shots in my drink. 2 and i was done for a while
You the man..Great song my brother..
TALK DIRTY TO ME!!!
That's the song that put them on the map!!!
Nothin But A Good Time next please.... that's how Brett Michael's is live as well...seen him at our small town fall fest, he promised he would be back the next year and he did come back. Both times I was about. 20 feet from the stage.

"Something To Believe In".
"Mama's Fallen Angel" is a great one!
Something to believe in has a very deep and profound meaning
Peter, Paul and Mary...Blowing in the wind...Vietnam era
Great great song!!
Something to believe in is their best song by far
They may deny it now, but everyone listened to Poison back in the day.
