Im 15 years old and have recently found this band and I love them so much so far, it’s so fun reading all of these stories you older people share in the comment sections of teslas music videos. None of the comments are actual hurtful hate towards anyone and I can really feel the good vibes in this “fanbase/community”, I wished my generation would be like that haha
My Brother and I were in our mid twenties summer of 1987, we were building a big house with an Ocean view in the middle of a stand of Redwoods in Little River, California. We would drive up from the Bay Area every Monday morning and drive back every Friday afternoon. We used his little Datsun 210 Sunny to commute to and from! It had a Blaupunkt cassette player and we had just bought the Tesla “ Mechanical Resonance “ cassette tape at Tower Records in San Francisco ! We wore that tape out that summer! Driving through the coast mountains, then along Highway One along the Ocean twice a week through the beautiful California summer, jamming to Tesla, smoking good old California Sinsemilla (oops you shouldn’t know that)! Good times young man! Glad you’re able to enjoy some real Rock & Roll! Pass it on! How’s that for a story!
This was one of the songs that was on one of my mixed tapes my boyfriend gave me before he moved to Seattle in ‘92. I eventually moved out there to be with him but after my father died I moved back home to take care of my mother. Eventually the long distance took a toll and we split and fell out of touch with each other along the way. Long story short we found each other in 2018 on the internet. We were both single so he came to see me and he ended up moving back. It was as if nothing changed. I don’t think we ever really fell out of love with each other. This song takes me back to his apartment on Allen street where we met and the hot summer nights. Memories I’ll never forget.❤️.
Love this story..congratulations ❤for finding each other. Again..❤🎉🎉🎉🎉hope you spend the rest of your lives together it's hard to find a love like this ❤❤❤❤
It certainly is. When super famous bands do this, it gets noticed. Unknown bands all over the country play stuff like this every night in small venues in every city. Try getting out more
Lyrics in older songs always had lyrics that meant so much more. Lyrics like; "I've got a girl named Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong She's everything to me Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong I never set her free 'Cause she's mine, oh mine Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Dong Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Dong Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Dong Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Ooh, ah, ooh"
Takes me back to 1990. Simpler times. Cruising Fri and Sat nights. Just hanging out with friends. Great memories. Ty to Jeff, Frank and the rest of the band. Awesome concert at Alpine Valley and the one last year. I'll see you again no question.
Amen to that!! Definitely from the heart singing like that!! I try to sing and do "Ok," ish... but I can't master the from the heart and soul like he does.🎤👍
Lyrics Hold me close now, hold me tight Don't let go of me tonight You're all I want, you're all I need Hold me close now, hold me tight Don't let go of me tonight Sweet paradise, yeah How I love all of those crazy little things You've said and done for me You're the one for me Darlin', dry your eyes I can't stand to see you cry Now just turn and walk away Don't look back when I say goodbye paradise Days go by and life goes on I feel I've been away too long What I would give to be with you Days go by and life drags on Feel I've been away too long For much too long, yeah And all the while that I'm away Don't let our love fade away Don't you fade away Now as sure as the sun is gonna shine The day will come Now I'm waitin' for the day There'll be no more sayin' goodbye paradise My sweet paradise You are the reason why it tears me up inside And I break down and cry Didn't wanna say goodbye paradise I'm comin' home to you tonight Comin' home to you tonight So hold on tight Tonight I'm on my way back home to paradise So lost without you Can't live without you I've been away too long, now Tonight I'm on my way back home to you My my paradise, my my paradise, yeah To hold you in my arms, you're all that I adore To see your smilin' face as I walk through the door I'll never say goodbye again, no
@@lowellcalavera6045 they mean that the artists's did ALL of the composeing themselves and they wer not nearly as much as the face of a marketed product that they half the time only sing the lyrics to, so no let the fossil lay
Love Tesla and I am 65 this year but the music keeps me going. This song has it all and yes they should have gotten more acclaim but to their fans we are forever lioyal
I'm going to see them tomorrow, been listening to them tonight. Never seen them in the 80s. Just happy I'm alive and well to finally be able to afford a ticket to see them..love you guys forever!!!
Saw these guys in 87 opening for Def Leppard at Arco Arena in Sacramento. Leppard was great but Tesla was playing to a hometown crowd. Blew it out of the water!! One of the best of the 80’s.
Literally my favorite live performers. I saw ozzy 5x. Plant 4x, Aerosmith 8x. So many other great bands.... I would give up most of those shows for one more night with these guys.
Seeing them tomorrow night with REO, and Def Leppard ^.^ I'm 14 and this music is way better than todays music, I would like to thank my parents for raising me on the amazing musoc
Literally_in_every_ possible_fandom Yup , real people playing real instruments with no studio trickery involved . Getting old sucks but I'm glad I came of age with this music !
Pure talent from George after the solo. Straight to rhythm from lead, rhythm to lead, rhythm to lead….you’d swear there were 2 guitarists playing. Dude was sick and had the sickest looking axes of anyone back then.
Timeless, just timeless. Now I see SO MANY different kinds of ways Tesla fits perfectly into any kind music I love listening to now, any of it...love'em...
Phenomenal job of singing by Jeff Keith in this song! Gave it everything he had! See 2:55. Occasionally you'll see him cover his ear with his finger 0:58. Reason for this is he's blocking the sound from the surrounding instruments so he can hear his voice better and stay in tune with the music. Mariah Carey did this a lot too. I saw Tesla at a small club in Ft Myers, FL in the mid 90's. Tommy Skeoch was not with them at the time so Frank Hannon was the only guitar player that night. I was expecting a stripped down sound due to only one guitar in the band. I was wrong! They sounded huge! Frank Hannon tore it up! He was amazing! The band sounded amazing! After the show, we sneaked to the back parking lot of the club to where the tour buses were parked. Got to meet Jeff Keith & Brian Wheat (bass player.) Friendly, down-to-earth guys who hung with us for half an hour. Always loved this band!
Kevin Mckay I don't know about underrated ,l have always Loved them,my very favorite,I am upset I didn't even know they where a star light theater kc mo,I kills me I missed them,they are the best!!!!!!
AJ BAYU skid row sold like 10 million records and had top ten hits, they were huge and would have been one of the biggest ever if theyed started in the mid 80s not late 80s, they are my fav band of all time.
I love Tesla,all the songs they play,give me beautiful memories of my fiance that passed away,_DENNIS SCOTT SMITH RIP.I LOVE YOU FOREVER AND ALWAYS 😢🎉. 0:36
Right only we probably listened differently at different times in our lives today I listen and I hear it in a whole new light as another religious song that I have grown to love even more Thank You GOD for Tesla and this song as well as "What You Give", what you give is amazing. Thank You Tesla. Amen
I will never forget going to the record store and getting 5 man acoustical jam,I got off work my mom got up and listened to it a kool memory ( tesla more than a hair band)there the real deal
+Lewis Peffer grew up in the hair band days in the 80s but for some reason tesla slipped thu ...im in my 50s now and rediscovering stuff like tesla...now my new favorite band!!
Hold me close now, hold me tight, don't let go of me tonight You're all I want, you're all I need Hold me close now, hold me tight, and don't let go of me tonight Sweet paradise, yeah How I love all of those crazy little things you've said and done for me You're the one for me Darlin', dry your eyes, I can't stand to see you cry Now just turn and walk away, don't look back when I say goodbye paradise Days go by and life goes on, I feel I've been away too long What I would give to be with you, days go by and life drags on Feel I've been away too long, for much too long, yeah And all the while that I'm away, don't let our love fade away Don't you fade away Now as sure as the sun is gonna shine, the day will come Now I'm waitin' for the day, there'll be no more sayin' goodbye paradise My sweet paradise, you are the reason why it tears me up inside And I break down and cry, didn't wanna say goodbye paradise I'm comin' home to you tonight, comin' home to you tonight So hold on tight, tonight I'm on my way back home to paradise I'm so lost without you, I can't live without you I've been away too long, now, tonight I'm on my way back home to you My my paradise, my my paradise To hold you in my arms, you're all that I adore To see your smilin' face as I walk through the door I'll never say goodbye again, no
Yes, 5-20-24, still here. This was my favorite Tesla song. I could listen over and over. It's awesome. Reminds me of being 17 again, my first love, job, home. So much easier.
Will ALWAYS support my boys. My Fave band is POISON,,,but the band I will FOREVER SUPPORT regardless?? Tesla,,,, they always just come off sounding like a tesla album I might have missed. I see will ALWAYS go outta my way to see my boys. They sound amazing EVERY DAMN TIME!! \,,/0\,,/
I am old & gray & still listening to them...lol...not quite, but 55 years old & their STILL BY FAR ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE BANDS...TILL THE DAY THE MUSIC STOPS!!!!
Just saw them for my fifth time in Tucson. Made some dog tags I hear made their way into a good luck charm for the band. Maybe? Anyway- Frank was out- condolences- and missed hearing this one. Heading home now- You guys are majestic every single time.
I actually paid with my own money at 14 (my first job) for my foster mom to take me to this concert in Reno. She did. Tesla and Firehouse at Reno Event Center. 2nd concert was Pantera and White Zombie... holy hell, what a difference.
Great song! Between this and Love Song, this is why he sounds the way he does now. These songs shred your vocal cords. His voice paid the price for these amazing songs...
My absolute favorite band ! So underrated , Jeff Keith's voice is one of a kind , Frank Hannon is a beast on guitar , So much talent and so underrated ! \m/ \m/
As much as we love hair bands, he wouldn’t have it, he stuck by his natural hair and natural talent !!!! He is one of the only ones that can still hold true to his high notes. Pure talent!
Modern Day Cowboy...but don't let the video ruin the song for you, if you watch it only watch it once. I just remember thinking "Dude Looks Like A Lady" when I saw it.
Many years ago I watched Jeff Keith do a solo country gig in Nashville at the Preston Hotel. After the gig I got to chat with him, and I told him that "Paradise" was my favorite Tesla song. He sang the first verse to me right there... and it gave me chills! Best song ever!
Been listening to this band since the mid eighties, was 17 in 87, I am now 53, and still listening to them 36 years later-- rock on people!!!

Very first live band I ever saw 87 I was 13
Me too I'm 52

I have one of those tapes too lol
Love this story..congratulations ❤for finding each other. Again..❤🎉🎉🎉🎉hope you spend the rest of your lives together it's hard to find a love like this ❤❤❤❤

I am..going to 2022 concert OHIO
Right here in 2023! Been listening since I was about 5 lol so about 37 yrs been listening

@@robtori8974 Tesla rocks!!
I agree !! I only love to listen and watch Pop and rock created 1980-1995. Everything else can`t be the same today.
They touch my soul. The lyrics in every song have so much meaning.
Known as a "guitar band" they sure had great, meaningful lyrics! Great singer too...
Very true it's for the soul
Lyrics in older songs always had lyrics that meant so much more. Lyrics like;
"I've got a girl named
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong
She's everything to me
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong
I never set her free
'Cause she's mine, oh mine
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Dong

Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Lama Ding Dong

Yes exactly
Amen
Takes me back to 1990. Simpler times. Cruising Fri and Sat nights. Just hanging out with friends. Great memories. Ty to Jeff, Frank and the rest of the band. Awesome concert at Alpine Valley and the one last year. I'll see you again no question.
Most under rated band in the 80's.
Still here in 2022! ♥️
Uh, I wouldn't say they were underrated by any means. I'd say they were rated exactly where they belonged in the 80's 90's!

No they were under rated in 80s. Musicianship was vastly better than most hair and glam bands. They fit more with 70s hard rock
He sings this song from his soul, he feels every word and in turn so do I! Love the classical guitar also. BADASS!
Amen to that!! Definitely from the heart singing like that!! I try to sing and do
"Ok," ish... but I can't master the from the heart and soul like he does.🎤👍
I just comedy there's a lot of great power ballads but this is truly blues style soul
Oh 2023 now and STILL loving this song!
Lyrics
Hold me close now, hold me tight
Don't let go of me tonight
You're all I want, you're all I need
Hold me close now, hold me tight
Don't let go of me tonight
Sweet paradise, yeah
How I love all of those crazy little things
You've said and done for me
You're the one for me
Darlin', dry your eyes
I can't stand to see you cry
Now just turn and walk away
Don't look back when I say goodbye paradise
Days go by and life goes on
I feel I've been away too long
What I would give to be with you
Days go by and life drags on
Feel I've been away too long
For much too long, yeah
And all the while that I'm away
Don't let our love fade away
Don't you fade away
Now as sure as the sun is gonna shine
The day will come
Now I'm waitin' for the day
There'll be no more sayin' goodbye paradise
My sweet paradise
You are the reason why it tears me up inside
And I break down and cry
Didn't wanna say goodbye paradise
I'm comin' home to you tonight
Comin' home to you tonight
So hold on tight
Tonight I'm on my way back home to paradise
So lost without you
Can't live without you
I've been away too long, now
Tonight I'm on my way back home to you
My my paradise, my my paradise, yeah
To hold you in my arms, you're all that I adore
To see your smilin' face as I walk through the door
I'll never say goodbye again, no
Gracias!
I remember when the Love song, Little Susie, and Modern Day Cowboy first hit the radio. I bought the cassette right away! 😀
One of my favorite bands from the past that makes me smile every single time
One of the most underestimated bands of the late 80s and early 90s.
By whom?
Absofuckinlutely
@UTexas Nurse Well i was born in the 70s but Tesla was not so popular here in Sweden. And if you look on the charts the never got on the top either.
YES, AGREE!!!!!! STILL PERFORMING, STILL SOUND THE SAME. THEYRE AWESOME!!!
I always luved their gritty ness.
1983 ! Raise your hands for listening to this masterpiece at the end of 2022 🤟🤟🤟✨
Still rocking with this awesome band at 62 years old!
65 ! Going to Tesla tonight! ❤
FH Love

I've always want to know how it feels to contribute to creating something that touches so many lives. Tesla wrote a big part of my life soundtrack.
Saw these guys in 87 opening for Def Leppard at Arco Arena in Sacramento. Leppard was great but Tesla was playing to a hometown crowd. Blew it out of the water!! One of the best of the 80’s.
Still one of the best ballad's ever in 2022! Woke up at 45 4/5/22 feeling like changing my life
This isn't even a Powerball this is closer to blues with some rock to it
Still loving this in 2022. Tesla is played daily in my house. Love them even more now than I did in the 80s and 90s.
Love it "It ain't none of your business " Missing Person's
I looooooovvveedddd Tesla still do why can't we have awesome music like this now .. no fake drums or instruments just real live music
Each song composed by TESLA is a sound of eternity ... Before, now and forever more
Literally my favorite live performers. I saw ozzy 5x. Plant 4x, Aerosmith 8x. So many other great bands.... I would give up most of those shows for one more night with these guys.

Totally agree with you, I seen them twice in concert, they put on a very good show each time
Not if you're a diehard Tesla fan since 1987. Still the greatest.
Dreia It's Nikola, not Nicolas
I am 55 and this band is awesome. I hope i can make it to the May 5th concert.
Hell yeah l caught these guys in San Antonio and it was wellI I can still remember like it was last night

Just saw them for my fifth time in Tucson. Made some dog tags I hear made their way into a good luck charm for the band. Maybe?
Anyway- Frank was out- condolences- and missed hearing this one. Heading home now-
You guys are majestic every single time.
One of Best bands of their time, and still are!
Tesla is Awesome in Concert. I would love to see them again.....
I actually paid with my own money at 14 (my first job) for my foster mom to take me to this concert in Reno. She did. Tesla and Firehouse at Reno Event Center. 2nd concert was Pantera and White Zombie... holy hell, what a difference.
My favorite Tesla song i can listen to it on repeat all day. ❤ love piano
One of the greatest rock bands in history...
Tesla was wildly underrated. A bunch of really talented guys - thanks for my young adult memories gentlemen. Well done. 🕯️
¡Qué maravilla!,nunca me cansaré de escucharlos.
Same!
All-time classic feel to me
30 years later and I still go see these guys every time they come to town.
Who can blame you
Haven't heard since the late 80s,I remember this great song
This music rocks my soul!
I've never heard this song before today. It is beautiful🥀
One of their best I think... Highly unknown and underrated
In my eyes this band is iconic. Music fads, labels and timing.
This is a beautiful song.!! We just wish David was still with us to hear it again. 💜
Two lead guitarist,Tesla was my life BK in the day
TESLA songs rock love them awesome singer & band.
Great song! Between this and Love Song, this is why he sounds the way he does now. These songs shred your vocal cords. His voice paid the price for these amazing songs...
It sure did but still love these guys amazing they're still kicking it
WHEN - you realize just how much you love a person, and all you can ever do is let them go. And hope they know you loved them. ❤
My absolute favorite band ! So underrated , Jeff Keith's voice is one of a kind , Frank Hannon is a beast on guitar , So much talent and so underrated ! \m/ \m/
Frank is unreal very skilled very underated
I can't agree more frank and Tommy are so underated..Tesla is one of or the best live band on the planet
This band has gotten me through so much I love Tesla they've been a music staple in my life for 25 yrs
Good old Tesla, been a long time since I have listened to this great band. Glad I found you all over again.
This when music was music 🎸🎸🎸🥁🎤🎻🎹🎼
As much as we love hair bands, he wouldn’t have it, he stuck by his natural hair and natural talent !!!! He is one of the only ones that can still hold true to his high notes. Pure talent!
Modern Day Cowboy...but don't let the video ruin the song for you, if you watch it only watch it once. I just remember thinking "Dude Looks Like A Lady" when I saw it.
Many years ago I watched Jeff Keith do a solo country gig in Nashville at the Preston Hotel. After the gig I got to chat with him, and I told him that "Paradise" was my favorite Tesla song. He sang the first verse to me right there... and it gave me chills! Best song ever!
They was ahead of their time a band with songs like these today would blow up amazing underrated band
27 years ago? What the crap! Where did the time go. That was a really good time of my life.
