    Lead singer Jani Lane and I were good friends when I lived in Hollywood. He was the greatest guy. Whenever he met people he made them feel like the most important person in the room. He had no rockstar ego. He was just John from Ohio renamed Jani from his German grandparents who pronounce Johnny as Janni. He is gone far too soon. August 11, 2011 is a day I can’t stand because he left this world. I love and miss him so much. I’m actually crying writing this so please excuse any typos.

      Carol, Jani was also a dear friend of mine. He would often come hang out with me at work. One night he hands me a cd and asks if we can play it in the DJ booth. We start playing what was a demo of Cherry Pie. He blessed me with the honor of hearing CP even before the executives did. He had the most caring and beautiful soul. I miss my brother every day. I love that lunatic. He was a crazy guy at times, but was gentle as a lamb. He’s gone too soon and deserves to Rest In Peace.

She told me things only my wife and I knew. I asked my wife if she met Jani in Heaven. She said yes, he’s right here. I got to talk to my buddy and again say things on he and I knew. The next time I went to see the medium, I was talking with my wife and the medium says, your music friend is here and he wants to talk to you. Jani told me that he and I have been connected in past lives like friends and brothers, etc. we have a soul bond is what the medium called it and we will most likely continue to be in each other’s lives every time we reincarnate. I told him to wait for me so we can be in a band together. He said don’t worry I’m not coming back for a long while. I said, I’m dealing with CTE and have maybe 8-12 years remaining on earth.

    It’s impossible to watch this video and not get choked up over the fact that the singer Jani is no longer with us. Probably this one more than any other Warrant song, because you can really see how much joy and life he brought with him. I loved all of their songs from the first two albums, but this one has a special place in my heart and I’m really glad you got to see this side of them. The video also makes me miss seeing them in concert, it was always a blast.

    Oh, man this takes me back to the days of watching MTV before school. I LOVED this song when it came out. This was one of the ones that made me keep my love of 80's "hair bands" even as the grunge revolution pushed them out of the limelight. Don't get me wrong, I came of age during grunge, and AIC is one of my favorite bands ever, but even after kids my age were trashing the music of the 80's, I was standing up for it! I remember in the late 90's when the "Monster Ballads" collection used to advertise on TV all the time, I felt vindicated - there WAS a love for these songs still out there, and this one to me was one of the best!

    I went to a concert with Warrant, Slaughter and Vince Neil in a field outside a bar in northern Michigan in the mid 1900's with my sister and a group of our friends. They were great. Jani Lane was a terrific frontman. While I was in the crowd with friends between sets, my sister and a friend were in the bar talking to Jani. They said they talked to him for about a half hour and that he was such a down to earth, regular guy who enjoyed hanging out with them. He was a great song writer and musician. Some of my favourites are Bed of Roses, Big Talk, Bitter Pill, Andy Warhol Was Right, Mr. Rainmaker, Uncle Tom's Cabin and Song and Dance Man. Another power ballad to check out is Poison's "Somethin' To Believe In", the official video, especially to see Brett Michael's reactions in it.

The first was one neck had 12 strings, the other 6. Another one was one a bass the other a 6 string guitar, like Mike Rutherford (Genesis) and Geddy Lee (RUSH) had. Another reason different tunings on each neck...A lot of guitarists think they are just too heavy though...

    I have to admit I am in tears. I saw Warrant every time they came into town whether it was a large arena or a small bar. Jani Lane was an incredible songwriter and singer that was gone way too soon. Grunge came and dropped the floor underneath them. The last time I saw Warrant was the night before the imploded The Aladdin Hotel in Vegas. I traveled there to see them. I loved his song Stronger Now that a lot of people haven't heard but should have been a big hit. Jani was such an incredible talent and he had demons that he was fighting and I understand those demons. I wish he could have let more people help him with them and get the real help he needed. I admit I refused to acknowledge the band after he was gone. I'm softening my opinion and what brought me around was the band Queen. They lost their front man too and they choose Adam Lambert pats respect a to Freddie and is amazing and I hope to catch a show if they don't retire before they come to the US again. I will look at what the band Warrant is doing and decide from there. I understand loving the front man and thinking no one should replace them.

      I felt the same way you did when the Original Down Boys left the band at times and I really believe if The Song and Dance Man himself was still with us The original Down Boys would be together if Jani would reach out and ask for help, advice in regards to dealing with his demons but we all have our demons, but I've seen Warrant a total of 15 X's 14 with Jani as Frontman and a very talented musician, performer, and singer-songwriter, it's just crazy of all the songs he wrote only one was true and personal, very personal at that, that would have been a very, very hard pill to swallow and I couldn't say how he felt cause I don't know what I would have done, but Jani had a nervous breakdown because of it and made their debut multi- platinum album be released a year later instead of 88' released in January 31st 1989, but as I was saying I finally seen Warrant with Robert Mason and they have produced two great studio albums but in my opinion he should stick with singing songs off the 2 albums he sang on with Warrant, cause he doesn't do any of Warrant's older songs with Jani singing any justice, but of course you just can't always get a vocalist/singer and expect them to sound like the band you grew up with, that would be like poison without Bret Michaels or Aerosmith without Steven Tyler, glad you got to see them live, I just loved them from the start before they signed with Columbia they didn't have rockstar egos or sign a autograph and walk away Jani would actually have conversations with his fans and make you feel important and what you said mattered but the funny thing is of all the conversations that I've been lucky to have with Jani not once did he ever talk about or bring the lifestyle of a rockstar but instead talked about life in general and issues and things that were going on at the time, and sorry I got off of what I was meaning to say but Warrant was my favorite Glam Metal band and the only band then and to this day that would tell the fans where they were going after the show and to come hang out with the band... I've not heard about or seen another band do this...

Along with Down Boys, and Sad Theresa, this was one of the songs that Jani Lane and drummer Steven Sweet sang in their band “ Plain Jane”.

    6:50 might have already been addressed, but I'm late to the party on this one. Double-neck guitars are usually more schtick than practical (look cool), but they basically put two instruments into one. Like a 12-string guitar is one neck, and a six string guitar is the other neck, or a bass guitar's one neck and a 6-string guitar is the other neck. There are plenty of variations, including double-neck acoustics, where one is a 6-string guitar, but the other neck is a 12 string or mandolin. Usually both sides have their own output, so they can go into different amps, but often you also have a choice of switching to a singular output, so you just flip a switch between the two instruments. Normally, unless you're doing a lot of on-the-fly switching between instruments, it's just much easier and less cumbersome (i.e., heavy) to switch instruments between songs, or put a second instrument on a playable stand. :-)

    Down Boys - Warrant is a fire song! It’s a total upbeat banger and would love to see you react to it! Thanks for reacting to this great ballad! Also, if you want another great ballad song from them, I Saw Red is great!

    Saw Warrant in concert with Alice Cooper, Slaughter and Dokken. My daughter was madly in love with Jani. At one point, he jumped off the stage and walked into the crowd as he was singing. My daughter made a beeline for him. Although extremely thin, she's pretty tall and I worried she was going to jump on him. She just stopped dead when she reached him. She put her arm around him, he put his around her and she walked through the crowd with him for a while. What a sweet guy. Broke our hearts when he died.

      I'm glad you brought that up ma'am, I've been lucky to see Warrant a total of 15x's 14 with Jani and once with Robert in 2019 at the signal here Chattanooga, TN. , But there's a lot of fans and people who don't know about that side of the band and Jani, I keep in touch with Michelle, Janie's sister and we talk at least once maybe twice a week and like I've heard her tell someone or say it Jani would put his fans first he wanted to feel like the were the most important person in the world and wanted their fans getting their money's worth for buying a ticket which back then we're anywhere from $15-20 a ticket, also leaving their show telling everyone how Warrant put on the greatest show on earth and yes he would always get out in the crowd to be with the fans but to also reach the fans that were farther away from the stage, I know it won't happen but I would love to see his oldest daughter Madison (Maddie) Lane become the vocalist for Warrant she can sing and has a beautiful voice and has covered two of her Dad's songs Heaven & Stronger Now on SoundCloud & youtube

    So this is that one rock love ballad that everyone immediately melted to when it came on the radio or MTV, where everyone just immediately goes "Oh my God...I love this song". This is so 80s to me. Really takes me back to my teenage years. This song and "Angel Eyes" by the Jeff Healey Band always make me think of that time.

  • @AarontheOkayestDM

    Almost every hair metal band of the 1980s had a power ballad - Warrant had one of the best ones. If you want another power ballad with the name Heaven, try Bryan Adams' song by that name - the live version in Wembley Stadium is the best version of that.

    Erik Turner guitar player and founding member of Warrant lives next door to my son and his family. Great guy. Very approachable. I have a cd never been published with 3 songs that Jani Lane sang along with other rockers from KISS, and other singers. Erik was so gracious and signed the cd cover for me. Too bad these songs are not out for public purchase. Great rock and ballad songs. Erik wrote several of them along with other artists on the cd.

    Been subscribed to your channel for awhile now and I just found this reaction. I paused it before watching because this song makes me kind of melancholy when I hear it now. I'm hoping you liked it. I used to sing it to my wife all the time and she loved the line "I wrap my arms around you, so I can feel you breathe":. She passed away 7 years ago and now whenever I hear this song, that line just breaks me down. So, I'm going to unpause now and listen to your reaction.

    Glad you like these glam-rock bands from the mid to late 80's - they made life back then so cool! Ok, pro musician here - to comment on Jay's question about double neck guitars: double necks are used for guitarists who need to quickly switch between designated sounds that certain guitars provide without having a stage technician run out to swap out guitars in the middle of a song - doubles can be heavy, but very versatile - and with foot pedal boards, many sounds can be dialed in during shows - there are many combinations of doubles - ex. - top neck could be a 12 string & bottom neck could be a 6 string lead. Plus the various pickups, string gauges, bridges etc. all combine giving a guitarist options during a show - from Rush to Warrant - many bands use them for a reason -

  • @razorart1371
    @razorart1371 Рік тому

    The double neck guitar has one 6-string neck and one 12-string neck. Used mainly in live acts where the song changes from an "acoustic" sound (12 string) to an electric sound (6-string) without a break between the two.

    The first time I saw Warrant was in 89 while on tour for this debut record and they were opening for Tesla with House of Lords at Big Surf in Mesa, AZ. They were really great and just had a ton of fun on stage. The highlight of the show was after Tesla came out for an encore, some of the Def Leppard boys came out with them to do a couple songs. They became friends after Tesla opened for Def Leppard on the Hysteria tour, which I thankfully also saw in Phoenix. Very sad to lose Jani so young, really great live performer.

    You guys should listen to “I Saw Red.” Jani (lead singer) wrote that song after walking in on his girlfriend with his friend. The song is amazing.

    • @larrygriffitts1974
      @larrygriffitts1974 Рік тому

      Absolutely that is the only song Jani has written that is based on events in his life, and I still can't get over how Richie Sambora lead-guitarist of Bon Jovi, chose to sleep with Janie's GF Bekka at the time, I know it caused Jani to have a nervous breakdown but I don't know how he managed after walking in and catching Rickie and Bekka in the act, I honestly don't know if I could have dealt with walking in and catching them, it's not like hearing about it, but seeing it, really bothered and messed with Jani for years to come with other demons he was facing, but there will never be another band like The Original Down Boys and not another Vocalist, musician, Frontman, performer or singer-songwriter lika the song and dance man himself Jani Lane R.I.P.

You need to listen to The Damn Yankees- High Enough that is an iconic hair band power ballad from my youth which was the late 80's-early 90's before the hair bands gave way to the early grudge bands of '92. Like Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, etc.

    Interesting! You've reacted to several songs lately that are ballads on a 'collection' album I have called 'Monster Ballads', which are all the ballad cuts from all the heavy rock bands like Warrant, Survivor, Guns n Roses, Nazareth and others. Most that I hang with would turn up their noses at this collection , but I love it! :)
