#firehouse #loveofalifetime #alexhefner
"Don't treat me bad" is one of my driving anthems......their best song.
Best song of theirs!!
@@andyjaniszewski2130 I love the harmony when they all sing "Ohhhooohhhhhh" during the "this could be the best thing that youll ever have" verse lol.
Yeah! Listen to that one next, Alex!!
True
Overnight Sensation was mine 😂
RIP Mr. CJ Snare. You were a wonderful person and an awesome singer :)
Love me some Firehouse. Sadly they are too underrated.
I absolutely agree I saw them live two times back in the day
That is true!! Firehouse came out right at the end of hair metal!!
" Don't Treat Me Bad " and " All She Wrote " are definitely musts from Firehouse. They are now touring with Lita Ford and I think some with Loverboy.
Add Shake & Tumble to that list
@@JKShep3 A few more actually, I figured I would give him 2 of the many.
Big hair rock bands loved the POWER BALLADS! Its just what rock bands do
Lighters up!!!! 🔥
Sadly this has become a thing of the past
If you're heading down the hair metal road, you need to check out Cinderella, LA Guns, Stryper, and Great White... But you NEED to listen to Steelheart "Never Let You Go". Holy hell you will be blown away by his voice!!
He did react to it, and he was blown away by his voice!
I would suggest "I Can't Stop Me Loving You" instead.
@@stefantsarev4442 Ah how did I miss it?!!
Perry Richardson the bassist for Firehouse is now in Stryper…. Yes, they are still around and quite good
@@mykelvan I've seen both bands love a couple times! Michael Sweet is an incredible singer, and a nice guy! His last name is apt haha
Cinderella and Great White. Both fantastic blues based rock n roll bands from the 80s and early 90s.
This was me and my wife's wedding song
This is the song my wife and I danced to at our wedding!
Clicked the video since it is Firehouse. They are underrated.
Please react to other of their songs. They have tons of good songs. Cheers 😃
Absolutely
Firehouse sold more than 7 million albums! 😎🔥🤘🎸
"It's like soft airy ramen noodles" omg I'm dieing - lmao
My high school years were 87 - 91 so when I seen you dropped this I clicked SO FAST!!!!
One of the best love songs I've ever heard is BY BLUE OCTOBER 💙 HEART GO BANG. You'd like it.
There entire first album is fire. When I Look Into Your Eyes from the second album is worth a listen. CJ Snare has one of the best vocals of the hair band era.
Both albums were good...the rockers were better even then the ballads...the guitar sound was awesome...ballsy
Wicked album
Check out the first single Escape of the new project "K-usura" !!
It slaps AF.
Please react to this !! The Song slaps !
C J Snare and Bill Leverty, Perry Richardson and Micheal Foster are so talented.
Firehouse’s “I Live My Life For You” was my wedding song.
Gotta do more; his vocals are insane and they shread in other songs. One of the best, yet underrated 80s bands
This is one of my wife’s favorite songs. This hit number 5 in 1991. This was played at So Many Weddings! And, Alex, great songs are great songs regardless of the listener’s generation.
Rock You Tonight by Firehouse! 😎🔥🤘🎸
Checkout Tesla "Love Song" full version not the shortened video. There is an awesome acoustic intro!
My husband and I danced to this at our wedding. It will forever have good memories for us!
Overnight Sensation by FireHouse is one of the most metallic songs from them. Pretty fuckin' great song!
That song is awesome I remember I first heard it in the game brutal legend I'm like damn this is awesome
Alex this should be your wedding song to the beautiful Sarah! 😎🔥🤘🎸
My wife walked down the aisle to this song...15 years ago...today
I love your reaction, to this magnificent song, firehouse is great
Hey Alex! Thank you for bringing Firehouse to the channel! I recommend: All she wrote, Reach for the sky, Hold your fire, Hold the dream, Love is a dangerous thing, When I look into your eyes, I live my life for you, Don´t treat me bad, Here for you... hahaha, the list goes on... is a fantastic band! Underated...
Niiiiice. Hold the Dream.....that solo ❤️
@@PeteHawkins I love that solo too ! Also the solo from Hold your fire.... amazing!
The acoustic guitar was there just for the opening and any other acoustic melodies needed per song. Usually it would be attached to a stand that guitarist could walk away from and come back to when needed. Also, this album as released in 1990, which is why you're getting 80s vibes from it.
Welcome to the Firehouse rabbit hole my good man! 😎🔥🤘🎸
RIP Cj Snare 😢
Yes they are an 80 s band my dad was listening to them one day and fell in love and I said ok I need more firehouse and love their music
Imagine dancing to this at homecoming as a freshman in 1990! Great times!
The 80s hair bands were phenomenal. Gen X here, the best decade ever
RIP CJ
Hence. That's why they call it the Hair Band era. All Rock and Roll bands then had long hair. I was in my late teens and early 20's then. Love your channel Alex❤❤🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
in the late 80s and 90s this was played at every wedding, probably still played lol
When my best friend from college got married, they used this song as their "first dance" music. That was a good night for my then single self :)
Firehouse is a badass band great vocals
Firehouse rabbit hole is very deep my good man! 😎🔥🤘🎸
I still listen to Firehouse first album at least once per year.
Really good album.
I listen to it regularly at school lol
Love Firehouse. They would have been much bigger, but they came in towards the end of the hair band era. If they had come along several years earlier they would have huge.
I have seen them in concert a couple times in the last 5 years and CJ's voice sounds exactly the same. So damn good. I even got CJ to do a Cameo for my wife for our anniversary and he sang this song to her.
Awesome
Poison life goes on. It's easily the best ballot from the 80s, and CC Deville rips the most beautiful solo.
His voice in this song.. He never even tries.
I remember dancing with my boyfriend at high school dances to this one. They still tour and are still good when I seen them last year
The arrangement and production on this is PERFECT.
Now you have to check out their entire discography, that's just one of the best Hard Rock band of the 90's
Dude has a killer voice.
And yes, in the '80s it was a goal to have hair like soft airy ramen noodles
Here For You by Firehouse! 😎🔥🤘🎸
YESSSSS!!!!
Fn FIREHOUSE!!!
TRUE METAL!!
Discovered Firehouse back in the 90's and I still listen to them now.
Glad you are spreading the word
I saw Firehouse about 15 years ago as a part of an 80’s hair band concert package. They were probably the first band out. I’m not a particularly big fan of the band but really appreciated that they were truly happy to be there playing in front of people. Great show!
I love that song. Been listening to it since it came out. Yes I'm old.
Such a great song. Such emotion and power in the singer's voice and great guitar
Love Firehouse, great band, CJ Snare one of the best rock vocalist of that era.
Firehouse was a 90's success story, their first album becoming a hit in 1990, selling 2x platinum... this single hit #3 on the US charts, and is still a huge wedding song today. 2nd album 'Hold your fire' (1992) went gold... but the 90's grunge rock scene was taking it's toll on their popularity... Firehouse's 3rd album '3' in 1995 was a success overseas, but sold poorly in the US... it was followed by the 'Good acoustics' acoustic record in 1996.
Firehouse persisted w/ the 'Category 5' album in 1998... followed by 'O2' in 2000... and 'Primed time' in 2003. But their commercial appeal had been lost. The band still tours consistently, but hasn't released any new music since.
The original Firehouse was: C.J. Snare (vocals), Bill Leverty (guitar), Michael Foster (drums), and Perry Richardson (bass)... Richardson was replaced by Bruce Waibel (bass) for the 'O2' album, but Waibel tragically, passed away in 2003... Allen McKenzie is their current bassist.
He said the hair was like "airy Ramen Noodles."🤣 that's poetic
This song was a popular wedding song. One of my favs. "Don't treat me bad" is another fav of mine. Great reaction!!
Such a great throwback song. Still sounds good 30 years later...
Being a child of the 80s, born in 73. The vibe was unmatched! This song played as my wife and I exited our wedding hall.... in 2013
Brings a smile to my face thinking about the memories from back then. I was 20 in 1990😁
flashing back to every wedding i went to from about 1990-1992, which was a lot of em
Don't Treat Me Bad by Firehouse! 😎🔥🤘🎸
RIP CJ Snare March 2024. Now a voice of an angel
Bro, this was one of my favorite songs ever as kid comin from the 80's. My wife and I played this at our wedding. That voice is amazing! I saw them around 2000 or so, when I was in junior high, and his voice sounded exactly the same live years later as it did in the day. Band was KILLER too. U cant get this feeling and vibe anymore brother. This was a 90s song but they started in the 80s. Beautiful song! Now I see a thumbnail to u reacting to Skidrow so that's where I be. 🤘🏻
Their song In Your Perfect World is awesome
YES!!! More 80's reactions. All the hairbands!
Please also check out the other 3 songs you've mentioned in the beginning (All she wrote, Don't treat me bad and Reach for the sky) and also Overnight Sensation.
Firehouse deserve much more credit they are amazing
Alex: "OMG, look at their hair!"
Like duh, that's why it's called *hair metal*.
If you want to hear more power ballads, I'd suggest two by W.A.S.P. -
"The Idol" and "The Great Misconceptions Of Me".
YES!
@@maeramazarakoy7079 You know it ^^
That's so funny. my mind went right to your skid row Sébastien Bach reaction 😆
He has reacted to Skid Row - "18 And Life", "I Remember You" and "Wasted Time" :)
This was a great concert to go to when they toured with Kiss & Winger during the KISS Hot in the Shade tour so it went Winger Firehouse and KISS in MN during the 89- 90 tour
This is like an anthem some time in the Philippines
Reach for the sky is a ripper. They were a very big bands, and still touring.👍👍👍
This song was maybe 89/90 I know because I danced with my high school sweetheart at the prom. Won’t go into what happened after but yes this song made love even better than the great teenage love.
I will also say I wish you were a teenager back in the 80’s. You remind of my friends that hung out on Friday night watching Headbangers Ball or Friday night videos.
You should hear the note he hits and holds on the beginning of the live version of overnight sensation in japan.....no words
My band mates and me have the same feeling Alex.
That's exactly why we're trying to start writing songs like that 🎸 (glamrock/metal 80s style)
Kickass! Our generation needs more bands playing that type of Rock and Roll 🤘
Dude PLEASE, if you're gonna check out more 80s hair metal, check out Dokken and Cinderella 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Cinderella is my favorite. Last Mile. Oh yeah.
@@KSGomez88 Dokken is my all time favorite 80s hair metal band, George Lynch and Don Dokken are just a dynamic duo!!! But Cinderella I feel like is kinda underrated
@@Recklessghost1441 Dokken is incredible, I think Breaking the Chains and Dream Warriors are my favorites
@@KSGomez88 I can't even pick a favorite lol but unchain the night and alone again are up there for me. Also the hunter is so bad ass and bluesy, they just fuckin rule
Dokken is seriously my favorite Heavy Metal band of all time
"Don't walk away" is their best song. Check it out!
Don’t walk away is great by firehouse and don’t walk away by danger danger are both some of the greatest 80s hair metal songs ever
yes... love it in The Wrestler
Don’t treat me bad and all she wrote are great songs
Top 10 USA baby! 😎🔥🤘🎸
Back from the days when music was real and played with real instruments and raw/real vocals. This is better than 98% of todays music.
90's band just (1990)! 🤣🔥
This guy has an awesome voice too. If you want the hair you have to grow it. And this is a ballad. That's generally what ballads are. Love songs.
It was very early 90s but definitely 80s big hair band, they were and still amazing.
You need to check out Firehouse's songs Reach For The Sky , I Live My Life For You , Here For You , Shake & Tumble , Outta Be A Law , Dream , No One At All , When I Look Into Your Eyes & All She Wrote .
The flame- cheap trick
Voices -cheap trick
I was starting high school when this song was released.
And he still sounds like this!!
Watched them live back in 2019 near Fredericksburg, Va and cj snare lead singer still hits the notes. They still sound great.
the red head bass player is Perry Richardson who is new bassist for Stryper
Always arranged my music library and set "Old School" as genre for songs like this.
In case i want to hear great classics🤘🤘
Such an underrated band. One of my all time favourites. Check out Reach for the sky by FireHouse.
Please also check out the band Tyketto (Forever Young). You'll be hooked. Please react to Tyketto. You'll definitely love it for sure
This was the most played song for weddings
I saw Firehouse live in 2008 and I was awestruck! Their drummer is insane live and his solos were great stuff.
Great band! Went to school with the drummers son, met the drummer a few times.
My wedding song🥰26 years and counting🤘🏼
No joke, 1992 my cousin walks out to this in place of the wedding March at her wedding. Little sis carrying a boom box in front of her cuz the church had no system. Big hair, chopped rest. Glorious (I'm not judging... my wife walked out to Tesla's "Love Song")
The bassist Richard Perry now plays in Stryper
The '80s and '90s had a lot of crossover, in my opinion. There was the late '70s to the mid-80s, which was heavy on synth-pop... then the mid-80s to mid-90s, which was the guitar power ballads like this.
Your reaction was fricken entertaining as hell. Needed a good laugh! Thank you!
Other good groups like Firehouse; Winger, Warrant, Saigon kick, Tesla and Damn Yankees…enjoy!
That was the first song that me and my ex-wife danced to at our wedding reception. Obviously the marriage didn’t last but the song is still a banger. I remember seeing Firehouse when they were still a struggling bar band with no record deal. They played mostly cover songs but had a few original songs that they performed, and one of them was Love of a Lifetime. When I heard that, I knew they were going somewhere and about a year later they had a record deal and their first album was in stores
When I Look Into Your Eyes is another Top 10 smash hit power ballad by Firehouse! 😎🔥🤘🎸
