Mark Slaughter, wrote this song about his girlfriend from Highschool who passed away. He said that when got back home from touring, he wanted to get a hold of her. And his friend called him up and told him that she passed away. And her funeral was the next day. So, he wrote this song in honor of her.
I heard she died in a plane crash. Which is why some of the video was filmed an a plane hanger and they showed a girl (which is supposed to represent her) in front of a plane. Also they show thee plane taking off and never landing. I heard that many years ago.
Absolutely heartbreaking at the time the song came out- we all were teens and has a significant other and the thought of losing them was sad, so we could relate to the song. Especially those of us who lost friends at the time this song was popular. I myself was giving birth to my first born and this was the last song I heard before he was born- so this has forever been my son's song & he's now 31! So I feel old, but this is a classic timeless song. Great honest reaction!
@@HellcatM no, the plane hanger represents flying
@@HellcatM The video was based on Amelia Earhart. Mark's girlfriend died under mysterious circumstances. To this day, I don't think it's come out how she passed.
@@Gen_X_Rosey the song is about his girlfriend dying not Amelia
I had the pleasure to know lead singer Mark Slaughter prior to the group, we sang in high school choir together in Las Vegas. He is an amazing person, something some fans don't know is he sang in a barbershop quartet with myself and 2 other members of the schools men's choir and competed in All State Choir in 1981, I always loved his ballads.
Cool story 🤙 love his style of music is voice is unforgettable hair metal will never die 🤟
Great story!! His Vinnie Vincent audition story is CLASSIC!
Mark Slaughter is one of the more underrated and unique singers in rock music.
Slaughter is Blias Elias drumming
@@Douglas-zd7mz Dana Strum is extremely talented, I agree.
.....the whole Band..."SLAUGHTER" Drummer Blas Elias.Gomez, the late great guitarist TIM.KELLY nice guy too, RIP.TIM, and bassist Dana Strum and of course Mark SLAUGHTER.... ALL Extremely Talented Musicians...!!
NO ONE has a voice like Mark Slaughter... Very underrated band, with lots of talent.. Check out more of their stuff!
No one🤦♂️come on now.
@@johnphillipsjr7238 yea I was thinking that too. He is really good though.
Thank Todd.
@@johnphillipsjr7238 It was as obvious as a brick to the nose how hard they wanted to sound like a Zep cover band.
@@nonplayerzealot4 LOL Yeah....maybe not quite as obvious as Greta Van Fleet was about it, but it's definitely there. In force.
The singer was asked about the origins of the Slaughter song “Fly To The Angels” to which he stated: “That song was written about a girlfriend who I went to high school with. I remember I came back from touring and couldn’t get a hold of her. So I asked a friend and he told me he hadn’t seen her. The next thing I know, he calls me back with the news that she had passed away and the funeral was the next day. It was one of those surreal moments. I went to her funeral and it inspired me to write a song about letting go.
Song is about death and being able to move on. His voice carries the pain of letting go.
Mark Slaughter and bassist and Dana Strum created “ Slaughter” from Vinnie Vincent Invasion. Some of their biggest hits were of course this song but “ Up all night Sleep all day” “ Spend my life”
Don’t forget their diss track about Vinnie called “burning bridges”
"Up All Night" was their breakthrough song if I remember right, before this song was released.
@@ameyer1970 That was about Vinnie?? I never knew that lol.
Mad About You is another stellar song from them.
Blias Ellias drumming is what made them and Marks voice.
I love when Rock bands do these ballads. You can hear they’re unique voices. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻❤️
Thank you for this one. I can't get pass the second bar before I'm teary. And when you lose "the only one for life", trust me you can never let them go. She's part of me, I knew she was gone before the Dr did because I couldn't feel her anymore. 😪
When he hits that word “pain” , you can hear it deep in his tone
Saw these guys in concert many moons ago and their voices were just truly amazing! His voice was so high, almost like the guys from Steelheart, that you couldn't believe what you were listening too.
Now their voices are shot. Sucks to get old.
I played this song for my son’s funeral!! He died 2017 on Christmas Eve from Asthma !! He was only 29 years old!!! He was my only child and the song just seemed to fit my feelings!!!!!
No way I could carry on.
You're very strong.
Best off days from here on out for you.
Wow, sorry to here that. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
so sorry for your loss
I'm sorry for your loss, one day we will all be together again.
God bless you!
This reminds me of my grandma she just past away on Christmas day and the movie we would watch together is TWISTER and I miss her ( as I am in tears right now ) but thank you for giving a memory back to me.
I’m sorry for your loss Mr. Martinez & Family.
Dude I am so sorry about your grandma. Stay strong brother
I’m sorry for your loss Andrew…
It's so hard to say what my emotions are cause I am just so emotionless. For Christmas I didn't get any presents but I did make a wish and I don't really comform to commercial religion but I ask God, Lucifier, and La Muerte to take make my grandmother pain to be eased and at 1:27 am Christmas morning I finally got my wish, and prayer was answered and now I feel bottled but I can't wait to drift with my grandmother someday ❤
True story....I went to a local bar back in mid 90's and there was a band i never heard of playing. I was at bar getting a beer n I heard the band playing a Slaughter song n was like damn...they do this good. When I got a look at the stage I was like holy fk...it is Mark Slaughter. He had throat surgery n before they committed to making a new cd n tour he wanted to see how his voice would sound n hold up playing live. Everytime they took a break he would grab a beer n just hang like one of the guys. Really cool dude. I seen them a few years earlier twice. Once they opened for Tesla n next time they opened for Poison with the Bulletboys
Up All Night....banger
Mark Slaughter and bassist Dana Stum formed Slaughter from a previous band called Vinnie Vincent invasion in 88. There biggest hits were of course this song, “ Up all Night Sleep all Day, Stick it to You, My life and Mad about you. But you’ve got to see them in person or do a video reaction to really get Mark Slaughter!!
@@leopitre7907 2 good songs lol and both of them were from the Nightmare On Elm Street movie. Love Kills and Time of Year
Their best song is called up all night.....great song fromslaughter...also....wait until you hear queensryche take hold of the flame or lady wore black....it will blow you away
If you guys like this, there`s another band with this kind of sound and style. Zebra, "Tell me what You want" and "Who`s Behind the Door" are pretty good tunes!
Bears
New Orleans own. Inducted into the Louisiana Music HOF a few years back. Alongside the likes of Louis Armstrong and Fats Domino. Slaughter’s great but Randy and Zebra got there first. Lol😎 Another great power trio.
yes yes yes zebra
Yes Indeed!
Agreed 1000%!!!
It's such a shame that Mark Slaughter's voice will never be the same and he hasn't been able to hit these notes for well over 10 years now. Such a talent and nice guy!
One of the very underrated hair bands from back in the day.....saw them in concert, great show!!
A brother of a friend of mine committed suicide around the time when this song came out. A bunch of us got together and hung out with him that night he found out and we must have played this song over 100 times for his brother. Later that night Stevie Ray Vaughan died after a concert we didn't go to because of my friend needing us in his time of grief and we played the song a bunch more. Every time I hear it it brings me back to that confusing night of grief. Great song for grief, nice reaction.
Slaughter is a great talented rock band. Spend My Life With You is a good one!!! They are worth checking out.
This song was released shortly after my grandfather had died. He was my everything! I listened to it while driving back and forth to college (6 hour drive). I could feel Mark Slaughter’s pain and it comforted me knowing I wasn’t alone in my grief. Thank you for sharing 💜
Was not a big Slaughter fan,,, But this song still resonates with me many years later,,,
It's funny you reacting to Steelheart and Slaughter on same day. Two of the highest pitched voices of the '90s. Up All Night and Street of Broken Dreams. Awesome reaction guys.
Mark Slaughter another of those 80s band singers with an incredible voice.
"Up all Night" is another good song worth checking out.
17 years old, my parent's '79 4-door, 2-tone metallic grey Olds Delta-88 Royale (350-4 barrel, thing would GO).
this song on The Wolf, 101.5 FM
A gorgeous set of big brown eyes beside me with her head on my shoulder, My first real love.
Miss you Christina, RIP 2019, and eff-you cancer.
This one is special for me. Think of my late wife when I hear this song. Hard not to cry when I hear it now
They had some great material. But they also lost their guitarist, Tim Kelly, on Feb 05, 1998 in Bagdad, AZ from a collision on the highway. Kelly, 34, was driving on State Route 96 when an 18-wheel tractor trailer jackknifed and collided with his vehicle. Slaughter has released five albums and toured incessantly since its inception in 1990.
Its already 7 great song in a row you have reacted to. Iam impressed
these 80s ballads take me back...
Mark Slaughter is a fucking GOD. So glad i got to see him live, one of the most insane voices in the world.
Haven't listened to Slaughter since high school. Love their music!
When Lex says “It sounds ‘Axeley’, they both had 4 octave voices. It does have that grit in the upper registers. There were a lot of other great singers in that era, doing that genre of music. Skid Row, Queensrÿche, Winger, Steelheart…
Back to the 80s
Dokken - Breaking The Chains
Great White - Face The Day
Slaughter - Up All Night
Krokus - Stayed Awake
Mark Slaughter ICOM
R.I.P. to original Slaughter guitarist Tim Kelly, who lost his life in an auto wreck in 1998. More people should remember him for his great work on 4 Slaughter studio albums.
Music drugs and drinking sad I meet them twise
@@chadfortman8098 Actually Tim Kelly was hit by an 18-wheeler & intoxicated truck driver
This song came out right when a close friend of mine passed away in a car vs motorcycle accident. This was played at her funeral. Everyone was crying. If you get a chance you might try When The Children Cry by White Lion.
My really good friends wife passed away very young, we all knew it was coming, she had cancer, at her funeral he asked me to play and sing Angie ( also her name) by the Stones, alone, just me and a guitar... I wanted so bad to say no, but how could I? It took all the manhood, heart, power, whatever, to make it through, but I probably could've just cried all the way, everyone else was. One of the most awful experiences of my life.
This was always on my song list back in the early 90s, as was Heartbreak Station by Cinderella. Both bands (at least in my view) were obviously influenced by Led Zeppelin.
Another of the greatest power ballads of all-time.
Notice Everytime they hit the high parts of these kinda songs you get that smile. Like it hits a spot in your soul that say omg WOW.
Thank God you started this channel! There is no way you would have ever heard any of these songs. This is delightful. Thanks Brad. Thanks Lex. My brother told me about you guys and I haven't stopped listening and watching since, and he's almost 60! 👏👏♥️
I was 22 years old, just back from Dutch Harbor and hitch hiking from Seattle to Portland. It was the best of days, it was the worst of days
I listened to this song in 1998 when my grandma went and became an ange and the tears are flowing again.
Huge song in the 80’s. 40 years ago, couples skate at Skateland. My girlfriend with her big hair and white skates and me with my black skates. Brings back a lot of great memories from high school.
you can tell he's feelin deep when he whines out during the outro "eeeewwww YEAH"
he misses that girl
Awesome song !! Memories ❤️❤️🤟🏼 This singer has a awesome voice!!
Mark Slaughter also did voice over work for Animiacs, Freakazoid!, Batman Beyond, and Rocket Power in the 90's and early 2000's. As well as compose music for tv shows and movies.
They played this song at my cousin's funeral. 16 years old. Died in a car accident. Wonderful song
I suggest watching this band play this LIVE!! His voice rocks.....
Spend My Life is another great song by them
this song is awesome and an example of why hair metal is the best genre of music
Mark Slaughter sang for Vinnie Vincent Invasion before going solo, and Vinnie was Ace Frehley’s replacement for lead guitar with KISS
Check out Love Kills from Vinnie Vincent Invasion... Mark Slaughter was the vocalist, before creating Slaughter... It was on the Nightmare on Elm Street 4 soundtrack.
Krokus - Screaming in the Night is a great tune for some great Hair Band vocals !!!!!!
I like the way LEX looks just smiled the whole way through that's awesome
This is one of my favorite Slaughter songs. After coming off the road from their first concert tour Mark Slaughter called his girlfriend only not able to get in touch with her, later he found out from a home town friend she overdosed and she died.
The music world is a much better place because of Mark Slaughter!!! He has a incredible voice! Plus he's 🔥 and he still tours today! Yaaaay for us!😀
Love you are listening to all this music from my teenager years!! What great music!!
My favourite band of the 90's! Tx 🤟
Awesome song I requested this one quite awhile ago thanks for doing it. 😀
I got hooked first on up all night but then this song blew up been a favorite cd of mine for years now
Glad i got to see them live with KISS and Winger back in the day.
Spend My Life is awesome really great guitar work. Really sucks he passed away Tim was a great player. Up all night has an almost haunting feel.
We played this at my sister's funeral. She passed in 1993 and loved Slaughter. This song will always have a special place in my heart.
For me this is a total Banger that I forgot about and I've been watching the video since watching your reaction.This song is so we'll done and the sound is amazing, happy for being able to revisit this 80's metal classic.
Finally! Been waiting for months for you guys to react to this one.
you won't find a kinder rock band, and man do they ROCK. SLAUGHTER FOREVER🤟
Guys like Mark Slaughter and Vince Neil.... they really have high pitched voices, but their songs are like ... killer classics!
Love that you guys are doing the hair metal bands!
Up all night Sleep All Day is another great Slaughter song that would be great to react to! Happy New Year to you both!
Yep getting over someone close passing away.
Flowers bloom in your name- Flowers in front of tombstone
Stars at night shine in your name- Once again...down on the tombstone.
Implies grieving and visiting day and night if one wants to perceive it that way.
Very good song.
One of my favorite songs of all time!!
Mark was another friend, very good voice and very talented song writer over all
Slaughter was one of the best from the third and last wave of the Glam/Hair band era…the era died in 1992 with the rise of grunge
But it was a heck of ride
@@thewalkershow6072 yes it was I was born in 1970 I like Tombaugh it was great binning a kid in the 70’s a teen in the 80’s and in my 20’s through the 90’s…grunge was OK but the Hard Rock/Glam era was better and has held up…Alice in Chains was the best of the lot but I was always more into partying and being upbeat than wanting to be down in a hole(except the good kind)…lol
What was glam about Slaughter? They didn't wear bright clothes and makeup 💄
@@ckobo84 agreed to a certain extent but still fell in that category….almost like Tesla..who were a rock band but it is what is is..not disrespecting them but we’re of that last part of the pre grunge era..be well
I have seen Slaughter many times in concert and it was always a fun time. I met them once and they were cool guys. This entire album is great. Burnin' Bridges and Eye to Eye are great songs with cool lyrics. Their later stuff is good too with songs like American Pie, Real Love, Days Gone By and Can We Find A Way
YEEESSSS !!!! This is a f beautiful music ! You're great !!!
Slaughter was created out of the Vinny Vincent Invasion. When Vinny Vincent lost his grip on reality and left, the remaining members just kept going without him. Named it after Mark Slaughter!
Vinny Vincent was a former Kiss guitarist after original member Ace Frehly left kiss.
I seen Slaughter in 1990, the whole "Up all night" album rocks from start to finish!
Fonts been sucking lately on thise lyric videos!
We need to thank Vinne for giving Mark a spotlight.
Mark has the chops of pure gold and long dark curly locks of hair and just handsome as you can get....full package there and love this song....sad they were under appreciated cause they are great 💗🕊️
mark slaughter has a great voice. you should really check out more slaughter. he was also in a band called vinnie vincent invasion.
Keep rockin' the 80's ballads!
I have never been a fan of metal at all but I always really liked these guys and thought they deserved more recognition than they ever got.
One of my favorites
Last month I went outside at 2 am and sang this song really loud several times... I hope my neighbors enjoyed!
One of the best Monster Ballads of all time.
Sad song for sure. Seen them early 90's to mid at Shades night club in Orange Park Fl. they were great live, it was a small venue, and their opening band came out to our table
giving us T-shirts and stuff. I heard Slaughter came out later to greet fans, but we had a drive so we left to soon. They sounded good back then especially in a small space.
My first Girlfriend loved song. She took her life as she wanted to fly to the angles and flowers do bloom in her name. Thanks for reacting to this song. I haven’t listened to it since. If any one has suicidal thoughts please seek help. It is available. Over 20 years I still my Melissa.
Love this track
This song will melt your heart its so great
Love Slaughter!
Up all night sleep all day is another good one
This song sure puts me in a direct time and space that’s warm
Saw this in concert last year. Sounds amazing in person!
Mark slaughter and Sebastián Bach are highly underrated and underappreciated.
Man , y'all killing it today !!!!!
Love this song 💜💜
A heartbreaking Prayer. Eternal cry.
Simply a stunning Power Ballad.
Love your 80s reactions 🤟
Slaughter; Mark Slaughter - Vocals, Dana Strum - Bass, Tim Kelly - Guitarist and Blas Elias - Drums.
I heard that this song was dedicated to Tim Kelly’s ( lead guitarist) mom who passed away from cancer. R.I.P. Tim Kelly 😢. Mark Slaughter was also in another band Vinnie Vincent Invasion
Wrong 🤦♂️
