Many other bands out there from the 80's. They all rock ! Tesla, def lep, white lion. You name it, they all have good vibes and great riffs ! The drummers rock too ! Rock on my Boi 🤘
I wish I had a son like you. 😂 I only had daughters and they didn’t appreciate this great music I grew up listening to. Tesla was a no nonsense rock band in the middle of the spandex, hair spray, and makeup era. The record execs fiddled with them early but they came through as a regular guy rock band. Making Magic and Hanging Tough! Love these guys. ☮️
Underrated by whom? These guys were massive during the day - one of the top bands. Selling millions of albums and selling out stadium tours year after year.
I kicked cancers ass last year and it's songs like this that are big motivators for one to reach down and realise just how strong you really are. Tesla is my favorite band of all time. I love these guys and thanks for soooo many good songs. Fuck cancer!!!!
Amen Tesla is/has been my #1band for Many years they just seem to be an integral part of my little part of the Rock world since the late '80s when I first fell in love with their music and more Damn thats been a few years but honestly just part of what I want to sax😘✌🎶😘
I'm pretty ashamed of myself this evening...just listened to this full album for the first time and I'm 47! It came out when I was in high school, and I liked their music, but I never delved into it! Album is solid and quite stellar! I guess I'm better late than never...
Not quite as good as debut…. Still a HELLUVA record!!!! I listened to these 2 records constantly as a HS senior/college freshman! Was watching the day MTV debuted “Modern Day Cowboy”! Hooked near instantly!
Every single song as far as aye recall is fire and gold, retrospective reflection holds in my humble opinion that this is the standout track and competition is fierce.
Tesla is one of the greatest rock bands ever.Saw them 2 weeks ago in Pigeon Forge Tennessee.Heading to see them again tomorrow night in Knoxville Tenn with Lynyrd Skynyrd.Cant wait!!!!
Nobody has the right to talk shit about Jeff's voice ,Tesla would not be Tesla without him and he has gave us some of the best rock around ,he gives it all he's got and what's he's still got works for me ,,for sure one of the best bands ever ,,keep rock'n Tesla absolutely love you guys
I was playing this at my local food store today to send a message to everyone to help get through the pandemic. One of the employees was jamming to it!
What a great opening. What a great song. Favorite Tesla one. I watched it for the first time on the Video Walls of a club after Bonfire concert in Athens, Greece.
Remembering my college days back in the 90's listening to this awesome band and until now that I'm already 51, still singing this song and the whole GREAT RADIO CONTROVERSY album. Keep on rocking guys!!!
Been fighting cancer and hit by a vehicle causing me 2 medium size brain stem anurizums almost leaving me dead completely. This song is great inspiration to me. Love you guys TELSA❤
First song I showed my boy , I Hope and Pray he gets it free , rock and roll is a freedom movement from the pushback from the in enslavement we are under. Think about it
The LAST BAND I EVER SEEN LIVE! I’d seen Pink Floyd.. 11 months earlier but once I seen these guys coming to Birmingham Alabama.. I had to GO! 3 Encores later.. I knew I belonged! 😎😂😂😉❤️💪🏾🤟🏽
I just can't find the words for My thoughts about this Whole Tesla group of awesome people that I owe my 🌎🌌to for many reasons over a number of years!😘✌🎶🐞!!
Bought this cassette in February 1989 at the PX at MCRD San Diego right after graduating boot camp having been paid and awaiting the trip to the airport for 10 days leave before MCT and SOI.....ran alot of miles during liberty listening to this.....
I have had a crush on him since the first time I saw/heard Tesla back in the 80s when I was pregnant and unable to work and MTV used to actually play only play real music videos!😘✌🎶😉😁
I was 11 when I met my future brother-in-law. He was driving an early 80s camaro. He asked if I'd heard "hang tough" as I went on a store run with him. I said oh no not that new kids on the block shit?! He said oh no, this is way more kick ass. Damned if he wasn't correct!
I’m 57 now and at the time of coming out of the 80’s glam band ( which we’re great in their own right) Tesla really help create the best new music of a new era , Jeff Keith has that distinctive voice that even today 2 notes and you definitely know it’s him . They’re still doing great . I’m glad they’re still bands from this era kicking off great music. kix is another great example. Still kicking around. Another band doing exceptionally well that’s stood the test of time is Testament. Best they’ve ever sounded.
I can't count how many times I've had this in my phones while running. More than a hundred times, for sure. I used to crank this song when I ran 30.kilometers on the country side, a couple of years ago. Good times ✨
Met these guys ( all except Tommy - he left a couple yrs before) in Atlanta , after a show they had Great guys , super nice - even invited me on the bus for a bit to hang out Always be one of my favorite bands This album was so constant in my high school life , summer before senior year Never forget it !
@@pihkal5852 dude my dad died of it. And he definitely didn't deserve it. Neither did the other half million people dies from it. Or the hundreds of thousands of people's live ruined by it. You just made the most ass a holic comment I've EVER read on the tube. Consider yourself reported. Douche bag
You stay locked away Inside your room Cuz you don't know What this world is coming to Hummingbird hums Cuz he don't know the words And the piper will play Cuz he don't know what to say He's a lot like you
I'm fighting cancer at the moment, this song gives me so much energy every time I listen to it and helps me get through chemo therapy.
That sucks. Hang in there, hang tough. Stay strong 👊🏻
Jesus rose from the dead. Trust in Him for your salvation
Praying for you!!!!
Hang Tough!
I hope you get better! Hang tough! 🤘🏼
"You stay locked away inside your room
because you don't know what this world is
coming to.
You hum many parts because you don't know
the words.
And the piper will play
because he don't know what to say.
He's a lot like you. Yeah.
He's a lot like you. Yeah.
He tries hard every day...
to be free...
and fly away."
tysir , never actually knew what he said there
God I miss this music. Thank you Dad for showing me and teaching me all this!
Many other bands out there from the 80's.

I swear they blow whitesnake and quiet riot out of the water
Underrated by whom? These guys were massive during the day - one of the top bands. Selling millions of albums and selling out stadium tours year after year.
Tesla was a monster rock band. The complete package. The guys could play anything. Great shows too. Real musicianship.
They played everywhere they could too. Toured with everyone, Jackal, Great White, Def Leppard, Jackal, Cinderella, Scorpions.
They still are...go see them live!
yes but, how could tesla leave this song off their best hits cd !!!?? this one of the best songs !
Great musical talent, harmony on vocals, and a killer lead vocalists
What an anthem especially for us teenagers back in the 80s. Still hanging tough!!! With more body pain. Lol 🤣

Seen this band 3 time always kicked ass. Got tickets to see them again in march. Can't wait
First song I showed my boy , I Hope and Pray he gets it free , rock and roll is a freedom movement from the pushback from the in enslavement we are under. Think about it
Just seen Jeff and boys of Tesla at the Fraze in Dayton Ohio on August 1st. Great Concert!!!!!
One badass band from 80s!!! Innthe highest realm w Ratt, dokken, Badlands, crue and the best!!!
I really like the bass chugging along at the first part of the song.
I love you Frankie.your killin it, just like every time 💙🇺🇸🎸💙🇺🇸🎸You and Tommy of course.
Hangin' tough & rockin' on! 💪🎸🎶♥
The LAST BAND I EVER SEEN LIVE! I’d seen Pink Floyd.. 11 months earlier but once I seen these guys coming to Birmingham Alabama.. I had to GO! 3 Encores later.. I knew I belonged! 😎😂😂😉❤️💪🏾🤟🏽
Just saw them live 2 days ago, they absolutely killed it! They still got it
This is one of the few band's that grunge didn't kill off
Every song they do is my favorite!
I just can't find the words for My thoughts about this Whole Tesla group of awesome people that I owe my 🌎🌌to for many reasons over a number of years!😘✌🎶🐞!!
Seen them back in mid 90s wool warehouse in Albuquerque NM awesome well never forget.
Seen them at Midnight Rodeo in 2001. Won some tickets on 94 Rock.
Bought this cassette in February 1989 at the PX at MCRD San Diego right after graduating boot camp having been paid and awaiting the trip to the airport for 10 days leave before MCT and SOI.....ran alot of miles during liberty listening to this.....
One of rocks best front men. Jeff Keith gives it all he’s got.
I have had a crush on him since the first time I saw/heard Tesla back in the 80s when I was pregnant and unable to work and MTV used to actually play only play real music videos!😘✌🎶😉😁
One of the best bands still rocking all these years
I was 11 when I met my future brother-in-law. He was driving an early 80s camaro. He asked if I'd heard "hang tough" as I went on a store run with him. I said oh no not that new kids on the block shit?! He said oh no, this is way more kick ass. Damned if he wasn't correct!
I had this on cassette back in my teenage years and completely wore it out....
Favorite Tesla song
Nice
These guys bring it in concert.

More than a hundred times, for sure.
I used to crank this song when I ran 30.kilometers on the country side, a couple of years ago. Good times ✨
They just played in Philly last year. I was so mad that I missed the show.
Hanging tough in upstate NY thru this pandemic in 2020. Tesla rocks forever!
With whats going on right now in the world we all need to hang tough...should be the anthem song for thr world.
The crunchy sound of their amps is incredible it’s their unique sound
Tesla’s debut was certainly a flawless album but I think Bust A Nut is on another level , an under rated masterpiece
TESLA RULES! Awesome band and such great guys!
Great song👍💜
My favourite band. «The Great Radio Controversy», the album that changed my life for the better. My younger days...
They are definitly one of the best bands ever.
A HR masterpiece. Still makes my eyes water 30 years later.
Great rock song with a positive message HANG TOUGH👍
The 👌 👌 perfect band...Long live for Tesla
One of the Greatest 80s Songs period!
Saw them in the ‘90’s at Hammersmith Odeon in London. They were incredible live and the Theramin almost deafened me.
I cant wait to see these guys this summer !!! 2021 and still ROCKIN !!!
Met these guys ( all except Tommy - he left a couple yrs before) in Atlanta , after a show they had
Great guys , super nice - even invited me on the bus for a bit to hang out
Always be one of my favorite bands
This album was so constant in my high school life , summer before senior year
Never forget it !
One of my favorite songs!! I love the lead
Perfect song for the end of a very weird week -- what a good listen!
This is one song they should play more in concerts. Seen them 6 times in 10 years never played it.
Absolutely a great tough great song ❤love it great band ❤️
Due to this stupid Coronavirus I am going to be unemployed after Friday. This is my inspiration song
Hang tough! I'm right there with ya 💪
Keep the faith. It will get better. Sometimes changes are better than staying where you are comfortable in the long.
Hang tough🙏👍💪
The virus is the ultimate authority and judge right now, who ever gets it or gets their life ruined by it, deserves it. Gotta have some fun on the way

Best part of the song starts at 2:45 🎸
You stay locked away
Inside your room
Cuz you don't know
What this world is coming to
Hummingbird hums
Cuz he don't know the words
And the piper will play
Cuz he don't know what to say
He's a lot like you
Underrated solo that is perfection such a feel there
This song throw me back to my teenager times,,,,❤️❤️❤️
88 in my 85 mustang @ 140mph tunes cranked😃...ah the good ol'days
One of the best rock bands ever. Top 10 in my list
