Completely agree very much relevant for today's sad and worrisome days.😢 I am happy I got to be a kid in the 80s and a teen in the 90s . Really miss the simplicity of those times even if at that moment it didn't feel that way.
Aerosmith was my first concert! I was only 16 (24 yrs ago). My boyfriend at the time, younger sister and a close friend (who was old enough to rent a car and hotel) all packed up and we headed for the Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY! Steven Tyler sounds just like this in person! Truly wonderful voice full of soul. The concert was so much fun and so laid back. People of all ages enjoying one of the best bands in history! Def an experience I will never forget!
I’m in my mom’s hospice room playing this song. She’s dying from cancer. She’s beyond any form of communication, but I remembered this song specifically was her favorite at one point. I hope it gives her some comfort.
No tengas dudas de que así debe haberlo sentido y que hayas elegido un tema como este para que escuche, y no lo digo por la letra, lo digo porque sin dudas conocés a tu mamá y como mamá te digo que debés haber llenado su alma en ese momento. Te felicito, aunque haya pasado tiempo de tu comentario, hoy igual Te Felicito por eso! 🫡🫡👏🏻👏🏻
I was a kid in Poland in the 90s and Aerosmith was my band! Other kids liked MJ, Metalica, Queen, etc. I was totally blown away with the sound of Aerosmith. That was my musical first love and that's it. The last rock band of all times.
Very cool, I'm 60 now and still love cranking some Smith and beating on the jeep and the guitars....they have so many great "b" side songs that haven't been heard...very underrated for decades.
@@nadjalaris5232kid, and I say kid with all respect, I'm 60, a cow milking earing...I'm laughin so hard because I understand, good for you to listen to something different than everyone else. Great tunes, be good kid, enjoy your life, its precious.
When I was around ten, I used to steal "Big Ones" out of my brother's room. I'd put it on in our living room, wear my dad's stereo headphones, while he would take his afternoon nap. I always tried to hold myself back from singing along, but NEVER made it, so I'd sing as quietly as I could lol Many years later, my dad told me he heard everything 😅 Precious memories!
I posted that song the other day I thought it was appropriate for the times and what we’re going through now. And it has a heavy Beatles vibe to it. I loved it still do.
This song is my Stairway to Heaven. I graduated in 1999 and was entering junior high when this song was played on MTV. The MTV that still played music. Not shows about 16 yr old whores getting pregnant. The only actual TV shows I remember them showing (Besides "The real world" 😒) was Beavis & butthead. MTV used to actually be worth watching. Headbangers Ball, 120 minutes... I miss when they actually fucking played music.
Just my humble opinion, this is probably Aeros most sophisticated tune. Triple layered melody lyrics, at least 4 minor keys, sophisticated orchestration arrangement for a mainstream rock band. If they wanted to be the Beatles, they came close with this.
this is really the very best and the most complex song they've ever written. you're right about this being the most sophisticated of all. (maybe "amazing" could come close on the same album.) "get a grip" was really a _now or never_ album for aerosmith, they gave their best effort to write good songs. "livin' on the edge" is a _led zeppelin-level_ song, something they always wanted to achieve.
I agree that this song has a strong meaning to all the lyrics and is one of his best. I had a ball when this song came out and I wouldn't take nothing back from my past.
This is really a great song. Jaded and Amazing are both great songs as well but they are not nearly as well executed as this tune. My brother turned me on to this song and told me to think the Beatles when I listened to it. He was dead on. The mix of the minor keys and orchestration felt like a continuation of the Beatles.
@@TomWhaley621 given the lyrics and the video itself, even by today's standards some will still find it offensive and quite possibly violate certain social media platforms' community guidelines. if i start listing some of them here it, UA-cam's very own automated service may strike this very comment down. So yeah... way ahead of its time because we're just good at moving portions of our lives backwards in time. :/
No, it wasn’t. As in, it’s been true then, today and 10,000 years ago. There’s ALWAYS something wrong with the world. I’m just glad I don’t live in Middle Ages. 😳
My Favorite Aerosmith song. Saw them a few years back in New Orleans and sat on the third row. During the guitar solo I walked up to the huge speaker that Perry and Tyler were standing on. For that one moment I felt like the only person in the world. Something I’ll always remember.
@@richardlacey4923 He sure did, and every time they have a concert in Louisiana he goes to the French Quarters and records a song and video and he performs it during the concert with the video on the big screen. Just Amazing.
Worked on this video, (played Eddie Furlong's father), can't believe it holds up so well after all these years...bumped into Steven a few years ago at a Kings game...still an AMAZING guy!!!!
I was 14 when this album was released. Listened to it non-stop for a couple of months. Crying and Crazy were the big hits, but this song stood out for me.
Of course, that opening line: "There's something wrong with the world today, i don't know what is'... Could one imagine a better lyric to capture teenage angst?
One of the greatest rock songs of the last 30 years....Timeless and sounds badass no matter what era it’s heard in....Killer production in making the song and video!
It was when the Yardbirds sang it in the 60s in the song. "Mister you're a better man than i" with Jimmy page on guitar,,that must be where arrowsmith stole it from
I love this song and video, but I think Aerosmith's most important contribution to music was their collaboration with RUN-DMC. That was a game changer for many groups going forward. 😊
Man I remember buying the Get A Grip album on tape at the record store as a teenager. Wore it out. This song has always hit me hard because things were changing alot around the time this video was on MTV and have changed tremendously since. Livin On The Edge sums up today's times for sure. This video rules 🤘
I can definitely relate to a lot. I was 15 yrs old and in freshman year of high school in 2008 when I discovered this song. Life was changing for me since entering high school. Listening to bands like Aerosmith, GNR, ACDC, Garbage, etc., helped make that year of high school the most memorable for me. The only one I actually liked.
So true today!! This song used to put me to sleep like a lullaby with the guitar as a child. I will blare this when i drive in hopes ppl hear the truth in it today. Love Aerosmith! See y'all in October 💕
The only rock star i ever met, Steven Tyler. He was sitting behind me on Disney's ride "The tower of terror". We had just been his ride, Rockin roller coaster.. I was hiigh as a kite on x. We walked and talked on the way out.
When MTV was still MTV and the M stood for Music instead of "Meh". I still remember I always yelled at the screen that he should move from the train. It looked so real at the time :')
72 Years old and still living on the edge I remember in my teenage years hearing this song and here it is all these years later and it’s still a wonderful song
@@steventyler7293 No criticism of you but Christmas Thanksgiving Easter birthdays are pagan holidays that I do not celebrate if you choose to celebrate these days that’s your choice. I do not hold it against you, but these are holidays that I feel like as pagan and I don’t celebrate, but love you as a sister in Christ. Hope we can still be friends.🥰🙏🌈
@@steventyler7293 a true brother in Christ I am from Gaston, South Carolina not much going on in this small town, but this is where God placed me and I guess he will use me to his wiggles in the name of Jesus Christ I pray amen
I meant to say a true sister in Christ I do not judge other people only God has that right, but I just have to state my belief whether they are right or wrong and that is how I believe but yes, I love you as a brother in Christ and that you love me as a sister in Christ, but the fact is we both love God and that’s all it matters
I remember watching this video when it first came out, back when MTV actually played music. Amazing and saddening that it's still so painfully relevant in 2020
Aerosmith's livin on the edge won a Grammy award for best rock vocal performance by duo or group and nominated for best rock song lost to runaway train by asylum
Trivia: In 1992 the McCloud Railway took over the operations of the McCloud River Railroad which had first been chartered in 1897. As business dwindled, the line eventually shut down by 2010 and abandoned all its trackage except in McCloud, CA. (Everything in the video is now gone.) The little remaining trackage in McCloud was supposed to have been re-activated within the last couple of years but only for railcar storage. Locomotive MCR 39 used in the video was an SD38-2 produced by EMD for the McCloud River Railroad in 1974. She was sold to Union Pacific around 2000 and became UP 2824, and was then re-numbered as a dedicated yard switcher UPY 824. She was last seen working in the UP (ex Missouri Pacific ) Settegast Yard in Houston a few years ago.
As a lover of trivia, thank you!!!! I'd REALLY love to be a Train Spotter. BIG BIG film recommendation. A film called "The Station Agent". UA-cam it. You'd fucking LOVE it my little friend!!!! TRUST ME.
I had the biggest crush on Edward Furlong growing up, since we were around the same age. He took this song to heart, because he has aged horribly after living a life filled with excess including drugs, alcohol, women ( or whatever he is into) etc. Hollywood chewed him up and spit him out, as they do most child stars.
He fucked his career on his own..He had everything to succeed (the talent , charisma...) after T2 he made some awesome movies like "American History X" - "Little Odessa" or "Animal Factory"..) Hollywood has bet on him more than Leonardo DiCaprio but he has completely sunk into drugs and we lost a great actor, The Producers do not even think of risking millions of dollars on an actor who has problems of addiction..the case of Lindsay Lohan reminds me a lot of him , she was the star of the future but she just screwed up and the girls who were with her like Rachel McAdams or Amanda Seyfried became successful actresses now..
I know someone who started to listen to U2, specifically Joshua Tree, which had been in the house for a few years, because he said it was his favorite...
These lyrics ring true 30 years later. From 1994 to 2024 getting closer and closer to the edge.
Yeah, it’s like people complaining about „kids today… bla bla bla“. Be it Goethe or Shakespeare etc… like, I bet that even 30,000 years ago, Cro Magnon complained about and feared for the next generations.
I was only 16 in 94, these lyrics have a whole new meaning at 46😂❤🎉
We always have been on the edge - pushing pushing pushing us to change. Its getting more obvious to more people and more intense. Love this song.
Timeless
...and the ride continues...
Looking back, this song was a funeral for what innocence that remained at the time. We are over the edge now.
Indeed!
Jan 2025 !! We are hanging on !
Fun fact, the bridge/railroad in this music video was the same one from the movie Stand By Me. It's located over Lake Britton in California.

They announced they are retiring today, ending the farewell tour. 54 years of being the great American rock band, what a sweet emotion.
came here for that. The end of a magnificent era.

Breaks my heart. I love Aerosmith.
They had an Amazing career. Crazy how many great songs they made. I’m Cryin that it’s come to an end.
Aerosmith has always been my favorite, could listen/watch all day. Definitely cryin 😭

The 90s were the best decade for music videos. Quality production, big ideas and no fear of experimental filming.

The 80s did it better the 90s were in second. And then the 2010s meh except for Metal and some Hard rock music now just sucks.
On an artistic level, yes, you can see the artistic licence that directors were given.

Tyler was born in 1948. Lets see how well you rock when you're pushing 70
Scott Waring I agree
Real music
Gone but never forgotten
Scott Waring yeah they think a band called imagine dragons is rock
25 years ago, my first concert. I'll never forget the moment they opened with this song in the get a grip tour. Shaped my life. Thank you guys.
So true today!! This song used to put me to sleep like a lullaby with the guitar as a child. I will blare this when i drive in hopes ppl hear the truth in it today. Love Aerosmith! See y'all in October 💕
Livin' On The Edge ♥
The only rock star i ever met, Steven Tyler. He was sitting behind me on Disney's ride "The tower of terror". We had just been his ride, Rockin roller coaster.. I was hiigh as a kite on x. We walked and talked on the way out.
@@georgegordner7795 the only concert I have ever went to with Kid Rock and I love the kid
@@patriciaspires5450kid rock is a piece of garbage
When MTV was still MTV and the M stood for Music instead of "Meh".
I still remember I always yelled at the screen that he should move from the train. It looked so real at the time :')
M in MTV today just stands for MEME hahahaha
“Meh”? You mean “Mutilated”
Beavis and Butthead: "Just keep playing! Everything's cool!"
72
Years old and still living on the edge I remember in my teenage years hearing this song and here it is all these years later and it’s still a wonderful song
Peace and love to you always, Merry Xmas ❤❤
@@steventyler7293 No criticism of you but Christmas Thanksgiving Easter birthdays are pagan holidays that I do not celebrate if you choose to celebrate these days that’s your choice. I do not hold it against you, but these are holidays that I feel like as pagan and I don’t celebrate, but love you as a sister in Christ. Hope we can still be friends.🥰🙏🌈
@@patriciaspires5450 Definitely, I will always love you, Where are you watching from ?
@@steventyler7293 a true brother in Christ I am from Gaston, South Carolina not much going on in this small town, but this is where God placed me and I guess he will use me to his wiggles in the name of Jesus Christ I pray amen
I meant to say a true sister in Christ I do not judge other people only God has that right, but I just have to state my belief whether they are right or wrong and that is how I believe but yes, I love you as a brother in Christ and that you love me as a sister in Christ, but the fact is we both love God and that’s all it matters
I remember watching this video when it first came out, back when MTV actually played music. Amazing and saddening that it's still so painfully relevant in 2020
I was born old in 1982... Surrounded by people whom I love still. Try
I also remember mtv Playing music
Aerosmith's livin on the edge won a Grammy award for best rock vocal performance by duo or group and nominated for best rock song lost to runaway train by asylum
Excelente música
I'm 38 and I'm still listening to Aerosmith oldys on here in 2024 to bad that the group now retired
Truly sad mates that since '94 we've moved only closer to The Edge.....
Yes
'93 ffs
93'
Come back, 90's. Please.
Or 70s 80s
70s Please pretty Please
played and replayed this friend's casette album to the hilt... he quit his job and we parted ways but this is how i was initiated into aeros' fandom
I remember that was the first riff I made up myself in 78-79...blown away when I heard this.
John Connor knew he'd be around in the future, so he could afford to live on the edge.
@@MrGoodman174 Terminator 2,
Detroit Rock City
American History X
This was when he did T2 he was fine as hell
@@nativeflutterbynails3016 Thnx but can you share a link of the exact scenes? would appreciate that
@@MrGoodman174 it wasn't a movie,I was just stating what movies he's been in,this is just the Music video
@@nativeflutterbynails3016 Goddamnit...
The One and. Only Edward Furlong ✨
Livin' on the 90's music!!! This is one of my favorite song and MTV Music Video back in high school, so relating song even nowadays! . 🤘
Thirty years to this date, Aerosmith and Steven Tyler were "Livin' On The Edge". This song and video definitely belong in the Rock Hall Of Fame!
I remember watching the train scene on my box TV in the 90’s & it looked so real 🫣
The way the songs begins to end is awesome, full of emotion and heavy feelings
Trivia: In 1992 the McCloud Railway took over the operations of the McCloud River Railroad which had first been chartered in 1897. As business dwindled, the line eventually shut down by 2010 and abandoned all its trackage except in McCloud, CA. (Everything in the video is now gone.) The little remaining trackage in McCloud was supposed to have been re-activated within the last couple of years but only for railcar storage.
Locomotive MCR 39 used in the video was an SD38-2 produced by EMD for the McCloud River Railroad in 1974. She was sold to Union Pacific around 2000 and became UP 2824, and was then re-numbered as a dedicated yard switcher UPY 824. She was last seen working in the UP (ex Missouri Pacific ) Settegast Yard in Houston a few years ago.
As a lover of trivia, thank you!!!!
I'd REALLY love to be a Train Spotter.
BIG BIG film recommendation. A film called "The Station Agent". UA-cam it. You'd fucking LOVE it my little friend!!!!
TRUST ME.
Yes, definitely, thanks for the trivia for this video!
This song was ahead of its time it need to be used now in 2020 because we are truly living on the edge!!
The bass drum was from Steve Tyler hi school isaw them first in 1976 @ stepping stone ranch in Rhode island
How about 2022
Livin like a hobo and lovin' it
This song says what is happening now 40 years ahead.
This song is even more relevant then today. Just keep on hanging on!
Never will grow tired of this band .....damn true rockers for so many generations .
Bake your brain: It's 2023, and we're Living On The Edge.
Living on the edge, definitely what this country is doing these days 🇺🇸
I've been on the edge for 47 years! Still standing🧍♀️
28 here!!!

Someone else crazy on October 2019? 🤘🏿✨🎸

2021...
Anyone in 2020 think of this song? Its our world lately. Crazy times!!!
**ReFresh** 2024 is just as CRAZY. Something is wrong with our world today!!
i did. Just popped in my head while scrolling through everyone's fees.... fucked up times gor sure
yeah...
Team Gen-X
Yup
oh my god yes, the past few days it's playing in my head nonstop!
My sister did love this song, man she rest in peace,
I just realized that the guy at the end of the video is the teacher. 25 years it took me to get that one
Oookkk I have never realized that point if I don´t read your comment, Thank you.
The young kid in the video is John Connor. Sssshhhh. 🤫
lol duhhhh
Escutei muito essa música em 1993 na MTV tempos que não voltao mas .
I had the biggest crush on Edward Furlong growing up, since we were around the same age. He took this song to heart, because he has aged horribly after living a life filled with excess including drugs, alcohol, women ( or whatever he is into) etc. Hollywood chewed him up and spit him out, as they do most child stars.
He fucked his career on his own..He had everything to succeed (the talent , charisma...) after T2 he made some awesome movies like "American History X" - "Little Odessa" or "Animal Factory"..) Hollywood has bet on him more than Leonardo DiCaprio but he has completely sunk into drugs and we lost a great actor, The Producers do not even think of risking millions of dollars on an actor who has problems of addiction..the case of Lindsay Lohan reminds me a lot of him , she was the star of the future but she just screwed up and the girls who were with her like Rachel McAdams or Amanda Seyfried became successful actresses now..
ChildoftheUniverse me too, had the biggest crush on him. Was always excited to see this video!
Edward Furling and Macualay Culkin..two car wrecks of 90s
I had a crush on him too (thanks to "Brainscan" that I rented at the videoclub)! Childhood memories. 😊
I know someone who started to listen to U2, specifically Joshua Tree, which had been in the house for a few years, because he said it was his favorite...
You can't help yourself from falling in love with this video.
2021 my anxiety level from him on the train tracks
