Kickstart my Heart is about when Nikki died from a heroin overdose and they stuck an adrenaline needle in his heart and he sat up and pulled the needle out. Vince Neil is the singer. These guys are my absolute favorite band and what got me hooked on metal scene when I was in 8th grade in 1981. I grew up with Mötley Crüe. You have to play a killer song that doesn’t get talked about or got much airplay. The song is PRIMAL SCREAM. It is so bad ass. Even if you don’t do a reaction video of it, you have to listen to it.
The song is about Nicki Sixx OD on heroin and his hart stopped, and the paramedics or Doctors kick starting his heart with adrenaline and a defibrillator. Then going home the same night, and passes out with a needle in his arm. And him waking up and with the needle still in his arm with dried blood running down his arm and realizing what he did. Roger in Pierre South Dakota
Another fun fact to add on, apparently one of the EMTs attending was a Motley Crue fan and recognized Nikki Sixx, so he gave an extra dose of adrenaline out of desperation to revive him
That’s the inspiration from what happened on that fateful day to Nikki Sixx, but that’s not what the song is about. The lyrics is about the trials & tribulations that band went through, and after all that, they’re still going strong.
Nikki 'came to' in the ER, and during questioning by the Police, told them to F##k off, pulled his IV out and left the ER shirtless, was picked up by two teenage girls in the parking lot who drove him home in their Mazda, lecturing him about drug abuse. Defibrilators don't 'restart' a heart..they actually STOP the heart when in only A-fib or V-fib...any other cardiac arrhythmia, including asystole, and a defib will not only not fire, it won't help anything. stopped hearts are treated with epinephrine (adrenaline) and CPR..the 'paddles' only come in if the return to rhythm is a 'shockable rhythm' such as Atrial Fibrillation or Ventricular Fibrillation, again, to stop the heart so it can reestablish a natural rhythm.
Speaking as a man who grew up in the 70's and 80's, dude you're right. It was a great time, not only in music, but life itself was so much laid back and fun...party days!!!! I've got to see them 13 times live, cause they have been my favorite band since 1983.
My stepdaughter too. Just graduated and I let her run my convertible around that day. She came home and had metallicas for whom the bell tolls cranked right up to speaker blow mode lol. Thank God the stereo is tuned so at full tilt it damages nothing lol
Don't feel too bad about missing out on this great music when it was released. When we were listening to it in the 80s and 90s, we knew it was good. We just had no idea how good it would turn out to be. It's only by being able to compare it the state of music today, that we can realize how profoundly lucky we were back in the day.
80's Hair Bands, wow my teenage years are flashing back. Lets get some Ratt, Poison and Cinderella on the menu! I saw all of these bands at the old Spectrum in Philly and actually saw the Crue while I was stationed in Germany with Tommy Lee's spinning drum set 89 or 90ish time frame.
I was a preteen I this era. I grew up on transformers, GI Joe's, He-mans and Metallica. Anthrax as well. I was lucky to be introduced to metal at a young age.
Being a teenager in the 80's was a constant discovery of new music and new artists, it truly was a blessing and for those that didn't grow up Gen X, most just don't get our obsession with that era of music! Thanks that was great to see you experience that for the first time!!
The 80's was the greatest most fun decade of my life! If a time machine is ever invented in my lifetime I'm going back to the 80s and never coming back! 🤘🤘
I feel the same way with the 70s LED zeppelin kiss Boston Forigner ,. Queen The Eagles. Abba, Blondie .The Cars, The Police, The Who, White Snake , Elo Bto .. Reo Speed Wagon, Heart, Bruce Spring, Steen Pat Benatar ,,Pink Floyd . Hall N Oats .. I love the 70s Miss every year ,, BAAAAD
So they're using a device in this song called a talkbox, with is a guitar modification with a little tube to the microphone that allows the player to modulate the guitar sound with their mouth, and make it "sing." Peter Frampton used one extensively.
@@auckalukaum Do You Feel Like I Do would be an excellent song for a reaction. (Full disclosure, I used to have every Frampton album ever recorded and actually met him at a concert in a club in DC because I knew several DJs at the hosting radio station. He was lovely but very shy. It was a short conversation.
I was so blessed to be with n my late teens and early twenties in the eighties. I would give anything to go back and stay. You would have LOVED IT!!! The music was the best, the clothes and hair were big and wild, and life was just FUN!!! You didn't have any hate and separation. Everyone partied together to all the different genres of music and just LIVED!!! They really were the best days ever and I miss them so much! 😭😭😭😭 I'm so happy you are discovering and appreciating the 80s and are sharing them with new generations. That way they won't be forgotten.
During the solo: Yup that was his mouth. It's a tube that blasts the sound of the guitar into his mouth and he shapes the sound with his mouth back into a microphone. It's called a talkbox. Peter Frampton is the king of the talkbox - check out 'Do You Feel Like We Do' or really any Frampton tune (specifically from Frampton Comes Alive).
I love this whole album. I read in their book “the dirt” before they started working on this album, they all took a year off to get clean and came in and wrote their first album completely sober. The best album they made in my opinion.
Being a teenager in the 80's was AMAZING! My boyfriend and I would be sitting in his bedroom and we crank up Montley Crue or Guns N Roses, and his mom would always come in yelling at us to turn it down. LOL. The 80's was about cranking up the knob and tear it off! I'm sure I suffered more ear damage from listening to Montley Crue at the highest volume I could than I did shooting a rifle while I was in the Army. LOL! In the 80's, the "Say No to Drugs" campaign started, the tobacco companies were sued by the government, and HIV/AIDS still had no treatments available. So as teenagers, we couldn't have sex, we couldn't do drugs, and we couldn't buy alcohol. No computers. No Internet. Only 4 channels on TV. We had all this teenage angst bottled up and nowhere to release it. So, we cranked up the music and headbanged until our necks hurt. We had loud, raucous music that sang about all things we couldn't do, so we lived vicariously through the music. I'm 47 now, with a 17-year-old son who can't understand why all the singers in the 80's were so angry all the time. LOL
It gives me so much joy to see you guys loving these bands with new eyes. I was there, I lived it, I saw them ALL in concert and I somehow survived to tell the story. I cannot believe the rock genre has died out, I thought it would live forever. It was the BEST time to be young and alive bar NONE! **and yes, our clothes and hair were really like that! Rave super-hold hairspray, don't fail me now!!!
So true story, when i was a kid in the mid 80s I was into hip hop and rap. Thats all I listened to......... untill I discovered Mötley Crüe!! There was no turning back. Wild Side is a must.
Jay and Amber Please React to the ORIGINAL song ,,, Smoking in the Boys Room From 1974 By The Band Browns vile Station.. Its A total Banger . You will thank me i promise
You need to do Crues “ Dr Feelgood” video it’s basically the movie “Scarface” in music video… the thumping bass intro is Mesmerizing…..back in the day Janet Jackson said she would always play it to get up before one of her shows ….I always thought that was cool
I would definitely love to see a "Dr. Feelgood" reaction. Love, Love, LOVE Motley Crue. Grew up in the 80s and they were and will always be one of my favorites.
Doctor Feelgood is a heavy Banger! Tommy really puts the drum intensity into it. Everyone wants to rock and Feel Good! Can’t go wrong - title track to the album. GREAT Reaction!!!!
My favorite Crue song. Three minutes of thigh-slapping, blood-pumping, nuclear brain damage. "Looks That Kill" and "Too Young To Fall in Love" are my nominations for your next Crue song. Also: the lead singer's name is Vince Neil. We gotta get you some Crue bobbleheads, man! Also also: was that Sam Kinison behind the wheel of the limo??
Dr. Feelgood is a kickass album no doubt one of my all time favorites. Brings back some special memories. Check out the title track Dr. Feelgood the original video. Another headbanging hit.🤘
I graduated high school in 1985 so I was right in the middle of the 70's and 80's and it was the GREATEST time to be a teenager I wouldn't trade it for the world .
“Live Wire” from their first album and then each and every track, in order, from “Shout at the Devil”. Their early stuff was very punk influenced. Yes, he’s using a talk box. To see it used watch Peter Frampton doing “Do You Feel Like We Do”.
The 80’s was truly a great time to appreciate music. Everything exploded and was fresh and exciting. The 80’s was my High school and College years. I remember sitting in front of the tv waiting for MTV to go live, it was incredible. I love it that you feel the energy and excitement of the eras music!
Motley Crue is MY BAND!!! Everyone has one band they call their own and this is mine! Want another song to get your heart racing? Go with “Fuel” by Metallica
The singer is none other than the one and only Vince Neil :-) Motley Crue RULES - always have, always will. Glad to see you diggin them so much too...more, please!
Great reaction!!! I was a teenager through the 80's, so I got to live through it, thankfully. But back when MTV was just strictly music videos, I rushed home from school everyday to watch the top 10 videos of the day. And of course Motley Crue was probably one of my favs to watch and listen to back then. Ya'll gotta react to their video to their song 'Wildside' next, if you haven't already.
I think right now many young people are wishing they were born back then, and us middle aged rockers wish we could go back. We're living in a stressful dark time to the point you have to find happy things to distract you constantly. For me, watching you guys and your channel keeps the scary things at bay. But I worry that this generation will never know the carefree lighthearted days my generation experienced. Having lived through the last 5 decades, this one is very heavy. Maybe not so much for others, I don't know, but all last year I was very nostalgic for the '70s - '90s. We had a ton of fun, and experienced what freedom feels like much more so than now. Lawd, I sound like Eeyore... Sorry guys, but thank you for being my surefire way to smile everyday!
I would’ve loved to been born then I want to go to the old concerts I love most of the classic rock bands and would’ve killed to seen them then but just born in the wrong time
Same here! I loved every second of life then, no joke it was amazing! But I wouldn’t want to go back….maybe for the weekend…as much as the world sucks now & it surely does. I get my fix watching these videos and seeing their little faces enjoying it! I just want to talk to them about it afterwards!!!!! So I wind up texting 2 years later because I don’t pay attention when it was posted & I text a whole conversation! But I’m getting my 80’s on so there! My faves Def Leppard Van Halen Boston Steve Miller I still liked 70’s Jackson Browne and Croce & everyone
@craigsmith9775 I think ibsaw just about everyone back then, but somehow missed Motley Crue. But I can't complain, I went to a whole lot of concerts! I really liked Cinderella and g9t to see them twice. And AC/DC, what a good time that was!! So many good bands and great music! 🎵💃
@shannonnichols3415 I do the same thing, lol!! I don't keep the notifications on, I'd have to sling my phone into the woods if I did... I love these channels too, it's like I got people to watch music videos with!
Love me some Crue !! Saw them several times in concert ! Tommy Lee is a beast on the drums ! I took my son to the Carnival of Sin tour when he was a teen. Needless to say, I was the coolest mom in the world (for awhile anyway😎)
Bassist Nikki Sixx overdosed and the medical personnel had to stick a needle with adrenaline straight into his heart. They literally kickstarted his heart. Comedian Sam Kinnison driving the ambulance
The EMT recognized Nikki Sixx and even though he was clinically dead for 2 minutes, he brought him back to life. Check out their documentary "The Dirt" for lots of real, some conveniently placed half-truths, and some outright lies about the band, Ozzie Osborne, and their partying lifestyle.
One of the greatest of all times!! Have seen them 15 times in concert was hooked in 1981 when I was 14 and bought their first album Live Wire! Check out songs from that album you will not be disappointed!!
These guys were huuuge adrenaline junkies!!! That’s what made them so great!!! I grew up in this era and it was THE best music ever made and I’m 50 now! This music makes me feel like I’m 18 again!! Love it!!!!!
Motley Crue was a fun concert. Def Leppard is my favorite band. My second favorite band is Queensryche. Queensryche Operation Mindcrime is my ALL TIME favorite concert. Second favorite is Def Leppard Hysteria in the round. You must check out Queensryche. I’m finding it hard to select just one song for you but the Operation Mindcrime album is amazing. It’s a concept album but the most popular songs are “I don’t believe in Love” and “Eyes of a stranger”.
Seeing them live was electric!! They are one of the greatest from the 80’s! They sound the same live! The whole entire venue was on fire with electric energy! I’ll never forget it!
Awesome song & back story. I turned 20 in 1978.. Iwas so lucky to have seen almost all the rock bands from the 70's & 80's Great times. I do remember most. Got old ticket stubs from over 2 dozen concerts. Went to over 50 concerts. But the girls wanted them. Or just too much parting to keep..
What Mick Mars is singing into is a voicebox synthesizer . It's a tube that you talk or sing into. It's not new. Joe Walsh used it in "Rocky Mountain Way" & many other artists before the Crue. And yes, I did see Crue live with Cheap Trick as an opener.
I love the fact that you are discovering bands for the first time that I grew up loving! Can’t even fathom hearing these songs for the first time again. Great to see you you opening your minds to music. The same thing happened to me taking my kids to school back in the day. They made me listen to Rap on the way to school every day. Needless to say I was narrow minded and hated it. Now I love it and it’s just as nostalgic for me a 60’s through 90’s rock. I have over 5000 cds in my collection which now includes…Tupac, Eminem, Dr. Dre etc. I now always try to keep an open mind to new music. Thanks for all you do on your channel. Love the reactions. Ray from NE Oklahoma 👍❤️
Their live shows were amazing, every venue I saw them in was a wild event. I saw them in the eighties at least twice a year from 82 to 89. Thank god I grew up in that era and was in my twenties during that time and enjoyed every moment from that decade.
You guys are my favorite reaction video reviewers and I can tell you are both just good folks . You bring back great memories from my youth with the song's you play , sometimes I smile and sometimes I cry . You are my kind of people and we need more of folks like you in the world .
Live Wire, Dr Feelgood, Wild Side, and Without you are more great Motley Crue songs. Great choice though, this song is amazing! I was totally born in the wrong era too, 80s music is the best! Motley Crue, Poison, Joan Jett and Def Leppard are touring together next year, you have to go to a concert!
You said you’d travel the country to see these bands. Well guess what? You didn’t have to!! They came to you!! These bands toured relentlessly sometimes visiting cities several times on one tour. It was an AMAZING time to be a 17 year old when this came out and to live through all these albums and tours. I’ve been to well over 300 concerts, including Motley Crue several times. I Love that you are experiencing the greatness of the time I lived through.
I grew up on this music. Motley is my favorite. Have seen them 14 times in concert since the 80's. They are doing a stadium tour been delayed because of covid but supposed to happen in 2022. I would recommend seeing them. Put on a amazing show.
Had a good laugh when I heard about people complaining about Nikki 6 showing off his privates because they were dumb enough to bring their kids there Seriously? You knew that when you bought them. That band has been doing that among so many others
I saw Motley Crue for the 1st time in December 1987. I was 15 years old. Guns & Rose's opened for them. UNFORGETTABLE experience!! 🤘 Seen them 6 times live! If you loved metal, you were a headbanger!
There will never be another decade of decadence like the 80s I'm glad I got to experience it but I'm also glad it's over. Motley Crue was the epitome of '80s Rock, aquanett hairspray definitely wishes the 80s would come back. Love y'all's reactions check out the live version of wild side you'll definitely see how wild they really were.
Saw them twice in concert and they rocked!! I guess I was the lucky one because it was my era. I saw Bon Jovi, Poison, Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Skid Row, Aerosmith, Warrant, and Guns n' Roses live and miss those days so much! Actually, my mum said that Guns n' Roses are touring here again soon so it's not too late to see these bands live. They're not in their prime anymore but I think you would still enjoy the music.
Mick Mars the guitar player is singing into a voicevbox which runs the sound of the guitar through a component that reflects his mouth movement. First made famous by Peter Frampton and RIchie Sambora
Imagine these guys back in the day, playing the BET Awards live? lol. This song is like being in a Porche going two hundred miles an hour, driving towards a cliff, high on blow, lsd, acid, weed, the vallum, Prozac, Xanax, fentanyl, oxies, with and s load of rotgut whiskey. Motley Crue is rock and roll mate
Jay, Amber,... The lead Singer's name is none other, ...Vince Neil!!!:))) Just a Great '80's Band, ...the '80's was PHENOMENALLY AMAZING!! ...Bob P, Mid Coast, Maine. 😊😊
Yeah, with Motley you're always wondering "wtf are they gonna do next" lol they were definitely wild. And incredible live. I saw them in concert when that album came out and it was pure kinetic energy.
Grateful I grew up watching them since 1983...... Got to see three of their tours... I'm almost 53 now.... And I still go back and listen to the good stuff. 👊😎🤘. Forever in my heart.
Motley Crue are the Kings of hair metal. They were my favorite ad a teenager back in the 80's. I saw them live several times Girl Girls Girls tour, Dr feelgood tour, theater of pain tour, and of course Shout at the Devil tour.
7:28 - The effect that caught your ear is called a Vocoder or a Talkbox. It connects from the microphone to the guitar and changes the pitch of your voice to match the pitches that you're playing on the guitar. It's a really cool effect from back in the day long before that Autotune effect that is so popular in hip hop nowadays existed.
The talkbox does not connect from microphone to guitar. The talkbox has a tube that is typically taped to the mic stand & mic. The guitar player places the rubber tube in his mouth & the actual sound of the guitar is coming through the tube & the guitar players mouth essentially becomes the speaker. Mick is playing & changing the shape of his mouth to make different sounds & at the end says “kickstart my heart!” There’s nothing changing the pitch of the voice it’s all guitar sound coming out of the mouth being picked up by the microphone.
Amber girl! You’ve got to give Bonnie Raitt’s “Thing Called Love” a reaction for Female Friday’s! I promise you will love her voice and the song! She is a rocker who knows her stuff! Please listen to her because I honestly feel you will absolutely love the song and the singer! Thanks for your time!
I grew up in the 80s and really liked Motley. Then I saw them on the girls tour. I became a fan that night. Still one of the best bands in concert. You should react to Wild Side if you want to see what Motley was like in the 80s. Pay attention to the drums and you will see why they were a big draw
I've never seen them. But my favorite story is after they retired and wanted to tour again. No one would sponsor the tour. So they rented out the 6 largest largest venues across the country. Tickets for the locations sold out in minutes. Everyone tried to jump on board and sponsor the tour. They told them we got this : )
I kind of have to laugh my ass off since I'm sitting in the hospital right now at 11:26 awaiting open heart surgery in the morning. I just made a joke to my daughter 2 hours ago about motley Crue Kickstart My heart. Great reaction thanks guys.
All the band members had some kind of substance problem. Especially the bassist Nikki Sixx who had a serious heroin addiction. So badly that he died for about a minute from an overdose and the doctors were able to revive him. He walked out of the hospital and shot up again. It was that bad. This songs backstory has a lot to do with their addictions. Especially Nikki. You see the ambulance at the start of the video which is a message. This song is from their album Dr. Feelgood which was their first album after going through rehab to get sober. The song Dr. Feelgood is about drugs and dealers.
I seen a lot of bands in the 80’s. Their concerts were amazing. They are going to be touring next year with Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett, it’s called The Stadium Tour, I will be seeing them 7/14/22 in Milwaukee. This tour got cancelled in 2019. You might want to see if they are coming close to you.
I'm so glad I was from that generation; I grew up with the Crue, my favorite band since high school; Along with Van Halen, it was them that made me picked up a guitar and own at least a dozen of them and play regularly. I'm just glad I got to see them once live in concert.
No one is going to give a shout-out to the late, great, Sam Kinison at the beginning as the car driver?
I was going to after I read everyone’s else’s comments.
Say it, say it!!!
Do check out Sam Kinison's Wild Thing. A lot of 80's rockers make cameos in video too.
Sam Kinison ruled … OH, OH , OOOOOOHHHHHH!!!!
They are too young to realize who he was.
Loved him as ProfessorTurgeson In Back To School: ua-cam.com/video/Fj5k6toS7i8/v-deo.html
Kickstart my Heart is about when Nikki died from a heroin overdose and they stuck an adrenaline needle in his heart and he sat up and pulled the needle out. Vince Neil is the singer. These guys are my absolute favorite band and what got me hooked on metal scene when I was in 8th grade in 1981. I grew up with Mötley Crüe.
You have to play a killer song that doesn’t get talked about or got much airplay. The song is PRIMAL SCREAM. It is so bad ass. Even if you don’t do a reaction video of it, you have to listen to it.
Very underrated song. Well worth a listen!
HELL YEAH PRIMAL SCREAM!!!!!!!
We saw them a few years ago in Bossier City and Primal Scream was their opening song. They’ve still got it!
Mrs. Mia Wallace has entered the chat😂
If you want to get the lowdown on The Crue you've gotta read The Dirt. You can watch the movie but it tends to focus on Vince & Nikki too much imo.
The song is about Nicki Sixx OD on heroin and his hart stopped, and the paramedics or Doctors kick starting his heart with adrenaline and a defibrillator. Then going home the same night, and passes out with a needle in his arm. And him waking up and with the needle still in his arm with dried blood running down his arm and realizing what he did.

Another fun fact to add on, apparently one of the EMTs attending was a Motley Crue fan and recognized Nikki Sixx, so he gave an extra dose of adrenaline out of desperation to revive him
Wasn’t it 2 shots? Anyways glad it worked cause this song kicks ass.

You weren’t born in the wrong era The music is still there just go explore it
I wish I was born earlier… my dad had a great taste in music and still does but I guess my Christian grandparents didn’t like rock music
Luckily, I spent my youth in this era.
Me too

So many great bands
I was a preteen I this era. I grew up on transformers, GI Joe's, He-mans and Metallica. Anthrax as well. I was lucky to be introduced to metal at a young age.
If you don’t remember, it means you did it right😂
Being a teenager in the 80's was a constant discovery of new music and new artists, it truly was a blessing and for those that didn't grow up Gen X, most just don't get our obsession with that era of music! Thanks that was great to see you experience that for the first time!!
This song is timeless. Even hundreds of years from now it will be played at every sporting event and strip club.
I hope so
They should play it at the world chess champs.
The 80's was the greatest most fun decade of my life! If a time machine is ever invented in my lifetime I'm going back to the 80s and never coming back! 🤘🤘
Can I hitch a ride?
I feel the same way with the 70s LED zeppelin kiss Boston Forigner ,. Queen The Eagles. Abba, Blondie .The Cars, The Police, The Who, White Snake , Elo Bto .. Reo Speed Wagon, Heart, Bruce Spring, Steen Pat Benatar ,,Pink Floyd . Hall N Oats ..

Thx so much for some more Motley Crue.Please please watch their "WILD SIDE" video. It's AS WILD AS YOU WILL EVER SEE THEM.
They have to do that one. I want to see Jay's reaction to the rotating drum kit.
Yes gotta see the video for sure
Too Young To Fall In Love, and Looks That Kill are also good exemplars of the Crue at their wildest.
I WOULD NOT give up my teen years in the late 70's-80's for ANYTHING! Punk then Metal then Grunge. SHIT WAS REAL!
I was so blessed to be with n my late teens and early twenties in the eighties. I would give anything to go back and stay. You would have LOVED IT!!!

Seen them in concert back in 87 with Whitesnake, Def Leppard and Europe. Great outdoor concert.
I saw that same tour in Charleston South Carolina. They just blew everyone away.
seen them that year but had just them and warrant then partied with them at sammies in bham lol
Ok I’m jealous!! That must have been one hell of a concert!! Not sure about Europe but Whitesnake & Def Leppard!!! OMG!
I saw them in 87.Guns N Roses opened for them!

During the solo: Yup that was his mouth. It's a tube that blasts the sound of the guitar into his mouth and he shapes the sound with his mouth back into a microphone. It's called a talkbox. Peter Frampton is the king of the talkbox - check out 'Do You Feel Like We Do' or really any Frampton tune (specifically from Frampton Comes Alive).
☝️ This. Amber, if you read this, ONLY play the live version of "Do You Feel Like We Do" from the Frampton Comes Alive album. You'll both love it!
Seconded... "Do You Feel Like We Do" from Frampton Comes Alive.
If you guys react to "Do You Feel Like We Do" (you definitely SHOULD), do the Midnight Special live version.
Came here to post this. DO FRAMPTON!
Yes, you have to do some Peter Frampton!
This was the music I grew up on. Try some Ratt, Cinderella, Poison and Skid Row
I saw Cinderella and Skid Row live, awesome concerts.
Agreed...Ratt, Cinderella are a must
You just nailed it...do ALL 3 of those bands...some of my best concert memories...esp Cinderella...yes I know he said 4 bands
Definitely Poison.... nNothing but a Good Time or Fallen Angel.
My god there was such better music then than those
I love this whole album. I read in their book “the dirt” before they started working on this album, they all took a year off to get clean and came in and wrote their first album completely sober. The best album they made in my opinion.
The music growing up through the 80’s and 90’s was incredible. Definitely glad I grew up through out those decades.
Shout at the devil, looks that kill, and too young to fall in love are some of my favorites.
STARY EYES....such an underrated song but one of their first that made me a fan for life!!!
Given the choice, I would loop the 80s for eternity.
Ditto
You said it all
Oh hell yeah
"Home Sweet Home'' is the 80's hair band anthem....!
But "Same Ole Situation" is the Sh!t....!
Being a teenager in the 80's was AMAZING! My boyfriend and I would be sitting in his bedroom and we crank up Montley Crue or Guns N Roses, and his mom would always come in yelling at us to turn it down. LOL. The 80's was about cranking up the knob and tear it off! I'm sure I suffered more ear damage from listening to Montley Crue at the highest volume I could than I did shooting a rifle while I was in the Army. LOL!
In the 80's, the "Say No to Drugs" campaign started, the tobacco companies were sued by the government, and HIV/AIDS still had no treatments available. So as teenagers, we couldn't have sex, we couldn't do drugs, and we couldn't buy alcohol. No computers. No Internet. Only 4 channels on TV. We had all this teenage angst bottled up and nowhere to release it. So, we cranked up the music and headbanged until our necks hurt. We had loud, raucous music that sang about all things we couldn't do, so we lived vicariously through the music.
I'm 47 now, with a 17-year-old son who can't understand why all the singers in the 80's were so angry all the time. LOL
Absolutely. Would go back to ‘82, start of high school, and live it all over again.
They're even angrier now
It gives me so much joy to see you guys loving these bands with new eyes. I was there, I lived it, I saw them ALL in concert and I somehow survived to tell the story. I cannot believe the rock genre has died out, I thought it would live forever. It was the BEST time to be young and alive bar NONE! **and yes, our clothes and hair were really like that! Rave super-hold hairspray, don't fail me now!!!
Can you say Aquanet? I've seen this band 5 times. I'd do 5 more any day!
The only band I’ve found that I love as much as the ones back then is Shinedown. Give them a listen, I think you’d like it
So true story, when i was a kid in the mid 80s I was into hip hop and rap. Thats all I listened to......... untill I discovered Mötley Crüe!! There was no turning back. Wild Side is a must.
Yes! "Wild Side" is awesome!
Yes, Wild Side!
Jay and Amber Please React to the ORIGINAL song ,,, Smoking in the Boys Room From 1974 By The Band Browns vile Station.. Its A total Banger . You will thank me i promise
Wild side is a must the spinning drum cage is awesome
Love all three equally
I would die just to go back to the 80's again and watch them live. Got to see them twice in 1987 and 1989 Reunion Arena Dallas, Tx
You need to do Crues “ Dr Feelgood” video it’s basically the movie “Scarface” in music video… the thumping bass intro is Mesmerizing…..back in the day Janet Jackson said she would always play it to get up before one of her shows ….I always thought that was cool
Yes yes yes!!!
I was going to suggest this I would love to see their reaction to it
I would definitely love to see a "Dr. Feelgood" reaction. Love, Love, LOVE Motley Crue. Grew up in the 80s and they were and will always be one of my favorites.
Saw these guys this past summer. Lord have mercy! Best concert ever!
"The Dirt", is a 2019 move about the forming of Motley Crue. It's based off their autobiography. Definitely worth a watch.
Doctor Feelgood is a heavy Banger! Tommy really puts the drum intensity into it. Everyone wants to rock and Feel Good! Can’t go wrong - title track to the album. GREAT Reaction!!!!
My favorite Crue song. Three minutes of thigh-slapping, blood-pumping, nuclear brain damage. "Looks That Kill" and "Too Young To Fall in Love" are my nominations for your next Crue song. Also: the lead singer's name is Vince Neil. We gotta get you some Crue bobbleheads, man! Also also: was that Sam Kinison behind the wheel of the limo??
Yeah it was.....this was the time when you could literally have a comic open for a rock group.
Yes that was Sam Kinison!!
"Kickstart My Heart" and "Wild Side"... volume up, pedal to the floor.
@@michellebliss1876 Wow. Loved that guy. OH! OHH! OHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Dr. Feelgood is a kickass album no doubt one of my all time favorites. Brings back some special memories. Check out the title track Dr. Feelgood the original video. Another headbanging hit.🤘
Cinderella- Dont Know What You've Got Til Its Gone, Gypsy Road, Coming Home, Shelter Me
Shake Me
Nobody's Fool too.
I graduated high school in 1985 so I was right in the middle of the 70's and 80's and it was the GREATEST time to be a teenager I wouldn't trade it for the world .
My teenage years were the 80s and The Crue was my favorite band! Still love them!
“Live Wire” from their first album and then each and every track, in order, from “Shout at the Devil”. Their early stuff was very punk influenced.
Yes, he’s using a talk box. To see it used watch Peter Frampton doing “Do You Feel Like We Do”.
The 80’s was truly a great time to appreciate music. Everything exploded and was fresh and exciting. The 80’s was my High school and College years. I remember sitting in front of the tv waiting for MTV to go live, it was incredible. I love it that you feel the energy and excitement of the eras music!
Motley Crue is MY BAND!!! Everyone has one band they call their own and this is mine!
Want another song to get your heart racing? Go with “Fuel” by Metallica
The singer is none other than the one and only Vince Neil :-) Motley Crue RULES - always have, always will. Glad to see you diggin them so much too...more, please!
Great reaction!!! I was a teenager through the 80's, so I got to live through it, thankfully. But back when MTV was just strictly music videos, I rushed home from school everyday to watch the top 10 videos of the day. And of course Motley Crue was probably one of my favs to watch and listen to back then. Ya'll gotta react to their video to their song 'Wildside' next, if you haven't already.
I think right now many young people are wishing they were born back then, and us middle aged rockers wish we could go back. We're living in a stressful dark time to the point you have to find happy things to distract you constantly. For me, watching you guys and your channel keeps the scary things at bay. But I worry that this generation will never know the carefree lighthearted days my generation experienced. Having lived through the last 5 decades, this one is very heavy. Maybe not so much for others, I don't know, but all last year I was very nostalgic for the '70s - '90s. We had a ton of fun, and experienced what freedom feels like much more so than now. Lawd, I sound like Eeyore... Sorry guys, but thank you for being my surefire way to smile everyday!
I would’ve loved to been born then I want to go to the old concerts I love most of the classic rock bands and would’ve killed to seen them then but just born in the wrong time
seen the crue on this tour (89-90) i was a junior in hs
Same here! I loved every second of life then, no joke it was amazing! But I wouldn’t want to go back….maybe for the weekend…as much as the world sucks now & it surely does. I get my fix watching these videos and seeing their little faces enjoying it! I just want to talk to them about it afterwards!!!!! So I wind up texting 2 years later because I don’t pay attention when it was posted & I text a whole conversation! But I’m getting my 80’s on so there!
My faves
Def Leppard
Van Halen
Boston
Steve Miller
I still liked 70’s Jackson Browne and Croce & everyone
@craigsmith9775 I think ibsaw just about everyone back then, but somehow missed Motley Crue. But I can't complain, I went to a whole lot of concerts! I really liked Cinderella and g9t to see them twice. And AC/DC, what a good time that was!! So many good bands and great music! 🎵💃
@shannonnichols3415 I do the same thing, lol!! I don't keep the notifications on, I'd have to sling my phone into the woods if I did... I love these channels too, it's like I got people to watch music videos with!
Love me some Crue !! Saw them several times in concert ! Tommy Lee is a beast on the drums ! I took my son to the Carnival of Sin tour when he was a teen. Needless to say, I was the coolest mom in the world (for awhile anyway😎)
Bet he has some great memories though
Bassist Nikki Sixx overdosed and the medical personnel had to stick a needle with adrenaline straight into his heart.
They literally kickstarted his heart.
Comedian Sam Kinnison driving the ambulance
The EMT recognized Nikki Sixx and even though he was clinically dead for 2 minutes, he brought him back to life. Check out their documentary "The Dirt" for lots of real, some conveniently placed half-truths, and some outright lies about the band, Ozzie Osborne, and their partying lifestyle.
One of the greatest of all times!! Have seen them 15 times in concert was hooked in 1981 when I was 14 and bought their first album Live Wire! Check out songs from that album you will not be disappointed!!
These guys were huuuge adrenaline junkies!!! That’s what made them so great!!! I grew up in this era and it was THE best music ever made and I’m 50 now! This music makes me feel like I’m 18 again!! Love it!!!!!
Motley Crue was a fun concert. Def Leppard is my favorite band. My second favorite band is Queensryche. Queensryche Operation Mindcrime is my ALL TIME favorite concert. Second favorite is Def Leppard Hysteria in the round. You must check out Queensryche. I’m finding it hard to select just one song for you but the Operation Mindcrime album is amazing. It’s a concept album but the most popular songs are “I don’t believe in Love” and “Eyes of a stranger”.
I’ve recommended Queensryche “Silent Lucidity” about 20 times!! I know it’s not a Mindcrime song but is a great one.
Def Leppard I've seen them several times and meet them back stage couple times. Amazing band! Rick most humble man ever! They all are great guys!
@@jasonjennings9087 that’s a great song too. Operation Mindcrime got me hooked on them so I was trying to choose a song from that. Hard to choose!
@@OffRoad-jh1do me too! I see them every chance I get. Front row a few times. It’s so expensive now though. Back then it was only $50. Lol
I've never seen anyone "sway" to Motlëy Crüe! 😂😂 Luv ya, Amber. 😉🤪
Motley Crue is totally epic!!! They have hits for days!!!
Their book was pretty unmatchable, too.
@@davek12 Are you referring to the one Nikki wrote?
@@AngelDawn1982It's called The Dirt. Cover looks like a Jack Daniels bottle.
@@davek12 yeah. That’s nikki’s book. He also wrote “The heroin diaries” as well.
Its nice to see young people like you listening to the best music ever.
Seeing them live was electric!! They are one of the greatest from the 80’s! They sound the same live! The whole entire venue was on fire with electric energy! I’ll never forget it!
If I could go back and relive the 80’s I would do it. Nikki wrote all of the Crue’s songs and did an amazing job with them.
Awesome song & back story. I turned 20 in 1978.. Iwas so lucky to have seen almost all the rock bands from the 70's & 80's Great times. I do remember most. Got old ticket stubs from over 2 dozen concerts. Went to over 50 concerts. But the girls wanted them. Or just too much parting to keep..
They hit the airwaves when I was in high school, seen then in concert many times. Try listening to "Looks that Kill" and "Knock em dead kid".
Vince Neil vocals, Tommy Lee drums, Nikki Sixx bass, Mick Mars guitar
What Mick Mars is singing into is a voicebox synthesizer . It's a tube that you talk or sing into. It's not new. Joe Walsh used it in "Rocky Mountain Way" & many other artists before the Crue. And yes, I did see Crue live with Cheap Trick as an opener.
I love the fact that you are discovering bands for the first time that I grew up loving! Can’t even fathom hearing these songs for the first time again. Great to see you you opening your minds to music. The same thing happened to me taking my kids to school back in the day. They made me listen to Rap on the way to school every day. Needless to say I was narrow minded and hated it. Now I love it and it’s just as nostalgic for me a 60’s through 90’s rock. I have over 5000 cds in my collection which now includes…Tupac, Eminem, Dr. Dre etc. I now always try to keep an open mind to new music. Thanks for all you do on your channel. Love the reactions. Ray from NE Oklahoma 👍❤️
Their live shows were amazing, every venue I saw them in was a wild event. I saw them in the eighties at least twice a year from 82 to 89. Thank god I grew up in that era and was in my twenties during that time and enjoyed every moment from that decade.
You should watch the movie Dirt about these guys and you’ll see how wild and crazy they have been through the years 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Definitely the dirt and awesome movie not for young eyes though🙈
The movie doesn't do them justice. They were way way wilder than depicted.
Ozzy put them to shame when partying LOL
The book, like so many others, is so much more in depth & is 👍
Awesome flick. Not kid friendly. Adult time. 😂😂😂
You guys are my favorite reaction video reviewers and I can tell you are both just good folks . You bring back great memories from my youth with the song's you play , sometimes I smile and sometimes I cry . You are my kind of people and we need more of folks like you in the world .
Saw these guys so many times. It was absolutely the best decade to be a teen!!!
Motley Crue in concert in the late 80's are some of my best memories!
Live Wire, Dr Feelgood, Wild Side, and Without you are more great Motley Crue songs. Great choice though, this song is amazing! I was totally born in the wrong era too, 80s music is the best! Motley Crue, Poison, Joan Jett and Def Leppard are touring together next year, you have to go to a concert!
Can't do Wild Side without listening to Girls , Girls , Girls too !
@@1971tallica He already did Girls, Girls, Girls, but I completely agree.
@@MariahTahmisian How the hell did I miss that, thanks ! I'm going to watch it now :-) .
Motley Crue Lin up
Vince Neil-vocal
Nikki Sixx-bass
Mick Mars-guitar
Tommy Lee-drums
My first concert was the Crue on the Dr. FEELGOOD tour in 1990. These guys were some of the baddest of the bad Boys of rock n roll.
You said you’d travel the country to see these bands. Well guess what? You didn’t have to!! They came to you!! These bands toured relentlessly sometimes visiting cities several times on one tour. It was an AMAZING time to be a 17 year old when this came out and to live through all these albums and tours. I’ve been to well over 300 concerts, including Motley Crue several times. I Love that you are experiencing the greatness of the time I lived through.
Okay, this is one of the most kick ass songs ever. Thank you guys for doing this? I loved this song as a kid and I love it now
I grew up on this music. Motley is my favorite. Have seen them 14 times in concert since the 80's. They are doing a stadium tour been delayed because of covid but supposed to happen in 2022. I would recommend seeing them. Put on a amazing show.
Had a good laugh when I heard about people complaining about Nikki 6 showing off his privates because they were dumb enough to bring their kids there
Seriously? You knew that when you bought them. That band has been doing that among so many others
I saw Motley Crue for the 1st time in December 1987. I was 15 years old. Guns & Rose's opened for them. UNFORGETTABLE experience!! 🤘
Seen them 6 times live! If you loved metal, you were a headbanger!
I loved the eighties. What an awesome time to grow up.
My band.... seen them over a dozen times. It was 1986 and I was 13 years old when I first experienced them. It changed my life
There will never be another decade of decadence like the 80s I'm glad I got to experience it but I'm also glad it's over. Motley Crue was the epitome of '80s Rock, aquanett hairspray definitely wishes the 80s would come back. Love y'all's reactions check out the live version of wild side you'll definitely see how wild they really were.
Uhhhh…There was 1 more.
Mötley Crüe “Decade of Decadence 81’-91”. Just saying…
@@billybee3423 That was clearly implied.
White can of Aquanet.
Anything off the “Too Fast For Love” album, as raw as a rock album there is
The whole album!!!
love you're reaction to this awesome song. You can't beat the 80s. thanks for sharing .
You would have LOVED it!!! I'm about to turn 52 and I miss it sooo much lol!!!!!
Saw them twice in concert and they rocked!! I guess I was the lucky one because it was my era. I saw Bon Jovi, Poison, Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Skid Row, Aerosmith, Warrant, and Guns n' Roses live and miss those days so much! Actually, my mum said that Guns n' Roses are touring here again soon so it's not too late to see these bands live. They're not in their prime anymore but I think you would still enjoy the music.
i'm soo glad you guys love my era's music!!!
I was in my 20’s when these boys were hot. Loved them and Poison! Best era in music in my opinion! 💖💖 I think you two are pretty awesome! God bless! 💖
Mick Mars the guitar player is singing into a voicevbox which runs the sound of the guitar through a component that reflects his mouth movement. First made famous by Peter Frampton and RIchie Sambora
Imagine these guys back in the day, playing the BET Awards live? lol. This song is like being in a Porche going two hundred miles an hour, driving towards a cliff, high on blow, lsd, acid, weed, the vallum, Prozac, Xanax, fentanyl, oxies, with and s load of rotgut whiskey. Motley Crue is rock and roll mate
Jay, Amber,...
The lead Singer's name is none other, ...Vince Neil!!!:)))
Just a Great '80's Band, ...the '80's was PHENOMENALLY AMAZING!!
...Bob P, Mid Coast, Maine. 😊😊
I love this song. Unfortunately when I am in the car and it comes on it's really hard not to want to speed down the road. Lol
Hopefully you'll react to Twisted Sister next, "We're not gonna take it"
I think that's where we're at in society, as we speak! 😆
Alot of rock & metal lyrics predicted the future.
Yeah, with Motley you're always wondering "wtf are they gonna do next" lol they were definitely wild. And incredible live. I saw them in concert when that album came out and it was pure kinetic energy.
Grateful I grew up watching them since 1983...... Got to see three of their tours...
I'm almost 53 now.... And I still go back and listen to the good stuff. 👊😎🤘.
Forever in my heart.
Motley Crue are the Kings of hair metal. They were my favorite ad a teenager back in the 80's. I saw them live several times Girl Girls Girls tour, Dr feelgood tour, theater of pain tour, and of course Shout at the Devil tour.
7:28 - The effect that caught your ear is called a Vocoder or a Talkbox. It connects from the microphone to the guitar and changes the pitch of your voice to match the pitches that you're playing on the guitar. It's a really cool effect from back in the day long before that Autotune effect that is so popular in hip hop nowadays existed.
The lead singer is Vince Neil you should watch Smokin in the Boys Room!!
The talkbox does not connect from microphone to guitar. The talkbox has a tube that is typically taped to the mic stand & mic. The guitar player places the rubber tube in his mouth & the actual sound of the guitar is coming through the tube & the guitar players mouth essentially becomes the speaker. Mick is playing & changing the shape of his mouth to make different sounds & at the end says “kickstart my heart!” There’s nothing changing the pitch of the voice it’s all guitar sound coming out of the mouth being picked up by the microphone.
Amber girl! You’ve got to give Bonnie Raitt’s “Thing Called Love” a reaction for Female Friday’s! I promise you will love her voice and the song! She is a rocker who knows her stuff! Please listen to her because I honestly feel you will absolutely love the song and the singer! Thanks for your time!
I grew up in the 80s and really liked Motley. Then I saw them on the girls tour. I became a fan that night. Still one of the best bands in concert. You should react to Wild Side if you want to see what Motley was like in the 80s. Pay attention to the drums and you will see why they were a big draw
I've never seen them. But my favorite story is after they retired and wanted to tour again. No one would sponsor the tour. So they rented out the 6 largest largest venues across the country. Tickets for the locations sold out in minutes. Everyone tried to jump on board and sponsor the tour. They told them we got this : )
I kind of have to laugh my ass off since I'm sitting in the hospital right now at 11:26 awaiting open heart surgery in the morning. I just made a joke to my daughter 2 hours ago about motley Crue Kickstart My heart. Great reaction thanks guys.
All the band members had some kind of substance problem. Especially the bassist Nikki Sixx who had a serious heroin addiction. So badly that he died for about a minute from an overdose and the doctors were able to revive him. He walked out of the hospital and shot up again. It was that bad. This songs backstory has a lot to do with their addictions. Especially Nikki. You see the ambulance at the start of the video which is a message. This song is from their album Dr. Feelgood which was their first album after going through rehab to get sober. The song Dr. Feelgood is about drugs and dealers.
I seen a lot of bands in the 80’s. Their concerts were amazing.
They are going to be touring next year with Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett, it’s called The Stadium Tour, I will be seeing them 7/14/22 in Milwaukee. This tour got cancelled in 2019. You might want to see if they are coming close to you.
NO THEY WONT THE GOVERMENT WITH STOP THAT With COVID every thing will be shut down again
@@theodoreritola9758 The government has nothing to do with cancelling a tour. STOP making this so damn political.
Wait...I thought I saw them on their farewell tour a few years ago. I even paid an outrageous price for a t-shirt that says so. 🧐🧐
You know Motley Crue and Def Leppard are planning a tour together for next year. Just saying....
With Poison and Joan Jett too!
I have my tickets. Can't wait. Was supposed to be in 2020, but has been postponed twice because of Covid. Now happening in 2022.
Dont forget Poison n Joan Jett will b there too👍😉
I'm so glad I was from that generation; I grew up with the Crue, my favorite band since high school; Along with Van Halen, it was them that made me picked up a guitar and own at least a dozen of them and play regularly. I'm just glad I got to see them once live in concert.
My favorite song by the crew of all time!!hair bands of the 80’s were bad ass!!!!I seen them 4 times in the 80’s…
Great reaction! If I have this song on a playlist, "fuel" by Metallica is always there too. Similar drive and intensity between the two
Why don’t you try reacting to Working for the Weekend by Loverboy.
Mike Reno the original who started the whole bandanna fad in the 80’s. 😎
Turn me loose!
Up to this point, all of crue's albums were good, Dr. Feelgood put them into the stratosphere.
I was 17 in 87. Driving a 79 Ford F-150 4×4. Best time of my life. Listening to this. Life was perfect!!!!!!!
Loved Motley Crue back in the day! Thanks for sharing! Awesome reaction!
