half the reason I watch their channel is because I think Lex was transported from the 80's - her love and appreciation for all things 80's is wonderful!!!!
Word ! Especially that this song is back in the 80's for the metal genre and my girl Lex said "Bang your head and let it all out." that shows my girl is a True Metal Head. Haha God I wish I have a girl like Lex ! I would be in my heaven !
I'm still smiling after this reaction! Some gems from Lex: "Hard rock & metal music will fix your mad, fix your crazy, bang your head and let it all out." "Going crazy is actually going sane, you let it out so it's not within, so you can be peaceful within." I'd say she gets it!!!
The line "Well, now you're here, there's no way back" fits Lex like a glove. I bet that if she went to a Metal concert she'd be the one starting a moshpit! : )
Hi Anna. Did you watch the ASU video? It was terribly depressing, The Quiet Riot video lifted me up a bit. Good to know that there are some young people with their heads screwed on right
If you've never heard the song Slam Dunk, by Quite Riot, I give it 2 thumbs up. How many basketball related innuendos can be placed into one song... A lot
This album is single handedly responsible for officially putting Heavy Metal on the music map. It was the FIRST metal album to make it onto the Billboard top 10 list. If I remember correctly, it even hit #1.
In 1983 everything was still being recorded on analog recording consoles, 24 track tape decks, and expensive outboard gear in studios that cost millions of dollars. This is why many people prefer the old analog recordings, as they tend to capture the performances and sounds better than current digital recording techniques.

@@mikemclaughlin3306As an audio engineer none of this bullshit on digital is true. But go off kings. The only shortcoming digital has is you can’t cause it to clip. Other than that, it can do anything analog can and more.
"When you get into metal music it will fix your life, it will cure you, it will fix your mad, fix your crazy, you just bang your head and let it ALL OUT !" See what I mean ?... She just GETS IT... Love your genuine reactions !
THAT being said, "THAT'S WHY rock/metal music, TO THIS DAY, isn't just "merely music/entertainment," FOR ME, IT'S A LIFESTYLE-and I've been into rock/metal since I was 8 (thanks to a band called KISS!)
metal health alludes to using music especially loud, heavy and aggressive music to vent your anger/frustrations in a healthy way. its not just for venting either people use music to sooth as well. take the song "more than a feeling" , the line where it says "when i"m tired and thinking cold, i hide in my music, forget the day and dream of a girl i used to know". we all use music to compliment our present state of mind or change it. music is good magic.
You two crack me up!😂🤣 Brad looks so serious studying the lyrics and looking for context, Lex just feels the music!💯🔥 Y'all are living proof that opposites attract!🤗❤✌
They did that album on such a shoe-string budget. They had a great engineer and producer. Not to mention great songs to start with . They were the first metal band to make it to number one on the album charts . Seriously underrated band , that does deserve to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
@@aerahtv0000 lol .. good point. The fact that ABBA is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Judas Priest and Quiet Riot are not point out the hilarity of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ..or Hall of shame as you so well phrased it
They came to visit my jr high school around the time they put their first Video out!! Great times, sux how life flies by so fast ,wish could make life pause a bit in great times 😪
Remember a show on 80s metal where they (Dubrow and a bandmate) were talking about not being Slade fans and they didn't want to do the song so they agreed to intentionally make it sound like shit on first recording and they were glaring at each other angrily as they realized that they were making it sound to their actual liking. And it stuck, but it was their producer's or manager's idea to do the song. Big hit for them, so assist to whoever told em to do it.
@@danwillis1389 that likely why they acknowledged Quiet Riot's version by LITERALLY saying "BY" them. Quiet Riot's version is more popular and its also the first rock song that I ever heard. Doesn't matter if it's a cover or not. A person can't help which version they heard first. 🙄
I remember when this album came out I went to the store near me and got the cassette of this kick ass, original rock n roll album!!! And I know the singer, Kevin Dubrow passed away way too young RIP 🪦 Kevin. thx guys for rockin us out!!
Was a junior in high school when this came out and they visited the Apple Records in my home town the afternoon before the concert. I bought the record and got all four autographs, each on their respective pictures on the back cover. Those were the days.
Brad, u picked a good one, i think we're all falling in love with Lex too haha. I love how real u guys are. it's so fun watching Lex become a metalhead . the way u treat her shows how much u love her . she's lucky 2 have you. u guys are my favorite internet couple rn along with Tom and Nova!
I love you guys. I once met Randy' Rhodes sister .thay look like twins. He was the guitarist for quite riot. He died at 25 yrs old when he played with ozzy Osborne. Very sad day in rock history. His funeral was on my birthday. March 24 1982.i was 15 at the time. I'm 57 still listening to this song
Quiet Riot paved the way for rock to go main stream. 80's were a wonderful time for a variety of music. You could hear anything on the radio from Madonna to scorpions to Dixie midnight runner to debarge.. Not like today. I use to blast this in my room, rock out and my mom would come in and start yelling "what the hell are you doing in here"?!
Sorry youngster but rock, especially metal was mainstream long before Quiet Riot put this out in '83!💯😁 I know bro', my first concert was Led Zeppelin in 1970!😊💥 My generation changed the music and the world!🤭🤯 You wanna hear heavy metal that we made mainstream, check out Black Sabbath's 1970 album "Paranoid"!🔥🔥🔥 It's still heavier than anything done since 1990!💯🤭🤗❤✌
@@tomaleshire4145 no, I'm talking radio play and I'm talking more about the 80's hair bands. They would not play them on the radio.

My thoughts exactly. Being an 80's kid was a blast watching music videos back then pre school years. Dudes looked like chicks, and every music video after another was more ridiculous.
Kevin Dubrow was a great heavy metal voice! This song was officially the first heavy metal song to hit #1 on the billboard charts...long live the greatie 80s!
Holy crap! Welcome to the beginning! I picked this tape up when I was a kid. Quiet Riot started my life long love of heavy metal. I wore that tape out and it finally melted sitting on our moms car dashboard in Phoenix. The lead singer and drummer died with in the last couple of years RIP boys! Just recently picked up the original press vinyl record it sounds amazing and brings back a flood of memories. Enjoy your guys videos seem like good peeps. Enjoy the sound.
Pure 80’s Columbia House gold!!! I think I’ve talked about this before but your channel reminds me of hearing music like this for the first time because I bought “12 Tapes for 1 Penny” (if I buy 10 at regular price over the next 3 years)... man picking out my 12, sending in my order and waiting for them to arrive was epic as a 10-year old... but having them arrive was seriously better than Christmas!! Opening each one and sitting in front of my stereo for as long as I was allowed!! (A lot of “get outside” those days 😂). Watching you listen to so much stuff for the first time is so much like that. Part of me is jealous to see you have your minds blown like on this one but really I just feel Joy. Brad I agree with Lex... the way you heard this one is what music is to me... like you said “it just sounded so good I had a hard time paying attention to the lyrics”... It makes me smile to see music make you smile. Thanks guys. What a great way to start my Sunday here in Taiwan. Much love.
@ Mark Allen Yeah right ?... it's like when Lexi says something, I'm like "... what ? !..." but a second later like "I never thought about it quite like that but yeah... yeah she ain't wrong !"
I was in elementary school and hearing this song instantly turned me into a rocker for life. I wrote "QUIOT RIOT" on the wall of my room with a silver highlighter and my mom was super pissed; partly because I misspelled "QUIET".
I was 12 years old when this album was released and I remember listening to it at my junior high school, walking the halls with my sony walkman cassette player, me and my friends were fledgling metalheads and this spoke to us so much.
I was in the 4th grade when I found the cassette laying on the playground. I didn’t have a clue what it was. Took it home and played it, and I’ve been a metal head ever since! I’m 47, by the way.🤟🏻
@@courtneyblue15 LOL I had a similar story with Metallica's Ride The Lightning, except it was a mixed tape, the whole first side was RTL that I found back in the woods at a place the kids used to party and drink, while I was collecting the abandoned beer bottles. I'd have been 15. It was the first Metallica I had heard because they were a little TOO metal for the local rock station.
I was 9 years old. This song defined my entire life. It still flows thru these veins. I see that younger me in Lex. It's a feeling you can't explain but it grabs you and never lets go. So much love. Peace Lady Lex.
The epidome of 80's big hair metal. BANG YOUR HEAD. Lex our metal girl is in to it. We need to get Brad to come around. Lex you need to work on him and make him a head banger. lol.
Incorrect.....this predates hair metal. Seems like all metal from the 80's gets lumped into "hair metal"...... bands like motley crue, Def leopard and quiet Riot, while more pop sounding, were definitely not the same as winger, great white, poison, warrant, etc.
Yep , def an iconic cover. But I think the song is spelled as such: “Cum On Feel the Noize.” Not sure if the other spelling brings up different songs or versions.
Really... this is the first time I heard that C’mon Feel The Noize was a cover!! And I am 49 so it is almost 40 years without me knowing that 🤯. Thanks.
@@ChadGPT-1.0 Slade came out with it in the early 70s, and a record producer or someone wanted QR to cover it because the singers voice sounded a lot a like ua-cam.com/video/Qu_ozjAu_vM/v-deo.html
You two are the best at reacting to songs. Some others I've watched seem to be faking their reactions to get clicks but you two always seem honest with your discussion of the songs! Lex you are a true rocker!
Thanks to you two for bringing me back to the 80's with your recent reactions. I haven't listened to these songs in so long and they're still great. Keep it going! If you haven't done any of Great White's music yet, "Rock Me" would be a great one to start with.
Haha, YES! Great song, great reaction as always : ) Plus, your channel has taught me something - never settle for someone who doesn't react to you the way Lex reacts to guitar solos! lol
I was a roadie for a metal band ( Medusa) back in the 80's. We rented a studio to have rehears and jam in Hollywood. Quite Riots gear cases were in the same space we used. Was kind of cool, they weren't they were just on the cusp of being huge. Just one of my memories from my youth.
Ya'll are the coolest... This song and Def Leppard's Foolin' were my gateways into metal at 14 years old. It's a joy to see that it still hooks people 40 years later.
Yep, Lex gets it musically. I actually went and got this album out of my LP collection after listening to you. Kind of dates me and how long I have been into rock and metal, but it’s just as good now as it ever was. So much variety.
When you listen to this kind of song, you have to move your head back and forth to the beat, like you're banging it against a wall...hence the lyric "bang your head". Now imagine thousands of fans at their concerts doing it in unison. It's fire!!
This entire album is amazing, Y'all - "Love's A Bitch" is one of my favorites from it. RIP Kevin Dubrow (Singer) & Frankie Banali (Drummer)...and former guitarist Randy Rhoads who left QR to join Ozzy Osbourne's solo band after he left Black Sabbath...
You have just been blessed with the timeless sound of the Kevin Dubrow and Randy Rhodes duo. Sadly Randy died a plane crash just six short years after the band struck it big and Kevin died in 2014 (?) from a drug overdose. Randy is considered a guitar god and Kevin is a rock legend himself. RIP "Don't Stay Quiet, RIOT!"
Randy Rhodes the Quiet Riot guitarist left and became ozzy osbourne's guitarist. Some of the best Ozzy tunes (Diary of a madman and blizzard of OZ). Sadly he tragically died in an airplane accident trying to buzz the Ozzy tour bus with the airplane. Still considered a rock god!
Randy left Quiet Riot a few years before this album was released. He was only in the band from 77-78. Would have been cool to see him stay and shred. I have the CD that was released in 93 that has Rhoades demos from that time. I was lucky enough to see this original line up back in 83 when this album dropped with Loverboy who was really good live but Quiet Riot ruled that night.
Within the metal scene you will meet the most humble and down to earth people you can ever meet. The music cleanse you body and soul and resets everything inside you.
Lex got it, she knows what this song is all about. True Metal Head.
Right?!
💯 Facts

Lex hit the nail on the head. For me (I would assume most others) metal music is a release
Word !
Especially that this song is back in the 80's for the metal genre and my girl Lex said "Bang your head and let it all out." that shows my girl is a True Metal Head. Haha
God I wish I have a girl like Lex !

Ya. She is a character, but I just always can't wait to hear Brad's little laugh he does when he finds something Lex says funny. Always happens.😂

Yup yup. Back when we are all trying to sort out the differences betwixt hard rock and heavy metal.
Hell yeah it is!!!
I think your right. It is essential metal.
Not only on the map,you can still find it without a compass.
I was introduced to Maiden before this came out. But yeah, you are correct.
In 1983 everything was still being recorded on analog recording consoles, 24 track tape decks, and expensive outboard gear in studios that cost millions of dollars. This is why many people prefer the old analog recordings, as they tend to capture the performances and sounds better than current digital recording techniques.

Analog is heard in a wave..... digital loses some of the subtly..... that's why I still listen to albums, and not downloads.

Metal is a cathartic release of all the emotions and frustrations you have in life. Through it, you can find more peace.

They were metal in the the same sense as Twisted Sister. Not "metal" per say, but not hard rock. 80s commercial metal... a soft metal...?? 🤔
Good band though
There is nothing like 80's rock. It was beyond fun. It was a great decade for music.
This was Randy Rhodes’ project. Known for working with Ozzy Osborne. This was my life theme music when I was in Jr. high school. Brings back memories.

Yeah Kevin Dubrow vocals are very distinct. No one sounds like him. He was a very under appreciated rock vocalist.never got the props he deserved.
He's the mouth that roared
@ Mark Allen Yeah right ?... it's like when Lexi says something, I'm like "... what ? !..." but a second later like "I never thought about it quite like that but yeah... yeah she ain't wrong !"
Lex nailed it. Let the Metal Music set you free!
A real headbanger!!!! This is a classic metal song from the hairband era!!
I was in elementary school and hearing this song instantly turned me into a rocker for life. I wrote "QUIOT RIOT" on the wall of my room with a silver highlighter and my mom was super pissed; partly because I misspelled "QUIET".
I love this group. I saw them in concert with Ronnie James Dio! Fantastic concert indeed! Bang your head! Lol
She was grooving so hard on this one. Love it...
If memory serves me correctly, Quiet Riot was the first metal band to crack Billboard's top 40, and went on to sell boatloads of albums.
I believe the first metal album to hit number 1
#1
@@Hailme75 YOU are correct, Good Sir
Definitely was 1st at #1
It changed my music and my life- quite literally.
I was 12 years old when this album was released and I remember listening to it at my junior high school, walking the halls with my sony walkman cassette player, me and my friends were fledgling metalheads and this spoke to us so much.
I was 14 but yeah the same... Just a f*cking magical time in music in general.
I was in the 4th grade when I found the cassette laying on the playground. I didn’t have a clue what it was. Took it home and played it, and I’ve been a metal head ever since! I’m 47, by the way.🤟🏻
@@courtneyblue15 LOL I had a similar story with Metallica's Ride The Lightning, except it was a mixed tape, the whole first side was RTL that I found back in the woods at a place the kids used to party and drink, while I was collecting the abandoned beer bottles. I'd have been 15.
It was the first Metallica I had heard because they were a little TOO metal for the local rock station.
I was 9 years old. This song defined my entire life. It still flows thru these veins. I see that younger me in Lex. It's a feeling you can't explain but it grabs you and never lets go. So much love. Peace Lady Lex.
Heck yeah, you guys got to this gem!
If it sounds familiar, the chorus was used in a few movies, and the Supernatural series(season 1 episode 7). :D
If Brad just spins his head 90 degrees, he'll be headbanging. Turn that east west to north south! :)
😂😂😂😂😂
Its easy to forget how great this song really is. It was so overplayed everywhere but stands the test of time for sure.
Great song! Glad you enjoyed it and Lex spot on with her assessment. Metal Health is just a way of life for many metal fans
I promoted this band. Saturday June 6th, 1992 Outdoor Concert. Great Show!
The epidome of 80's big hair metal. BANG YOUR HEAD. Lex our metal girl is in to it. We need to get Brad to come around. Lex you need to work on him and make him a head banger. lol.

Incorrect.....this predates hair metal. Seems like all metal from the 80's gets lumped into "hair metal"...... bands like motley crue, Def leopard and quiet Riot, while more pop sounding, were definitely not the same as winger, great white, poison, warrant, etc.
Yeah except Quiet Riot was NOT a hair band. Sorry but that was a stupid comment.
@@salvatorediangelo453 sure sure. Whatever. They were not. Weather you choose to believe it is irrelevant
Lex is adorable the way she jams. She belongs with the metal heads....:)
C'mon Feel the Noise (albeit a cover, is still good) by QR.
Yep , def an iconic cover. But I think the song is spelled as such: “Cum On Feel the Noize.” Not sure if the other spelling brings up different songs or versions.
@@Californyuhh I didn't want to use that spelling cause I wasn't sure if my remark would get muted.
@@bevil4aday good point
Really... this is the first time I heard that C’mon Feel The Noize was a cover!! And I am 49 so it is almost 40 years without me knowing that 🤯. Thanks.
@@ChadGPT-1.0 Slade came out with it in the early 70s, and a record producer or someone wanted QR to cover it because the singers voice sounded a lot a like

Lex has the best voice descriptions EVER!
That was a great reaction! The song was from 1983 and the album "Metal Health" was the first heavy metal band to reach #1 on the Billboard Charts!
You two are the best at reacting to songs. Some others I've watched seem to be faking their reactions to get clicks but you two always
seem honest with your discussion of the songs! Lex you are a true rocker!
Thanks to you two for bringing me back to the 80's with your recent reactions. I haven't listened to these songs in so long and they're still great. Keep it going! If you haven't done any of Great White's music yet, "Rock Me" would be a great one to start with.
The song that got me into metal when I was 13 years old. You 2 just make me happy watching you.
Nothing like an old school 80's iconic rock anthem to get the head banging..
The soundtrack to my 13 year old self in one song. It pretty much sums the energy and frustration endemic to that age.
I feel like lex would've thrived during the 80's and 90's metal scene
I always forget about this song then I hear it and realize how damn good it is
I love how Lex describes artists voices. I love this song, they had a couple songs I like.
To see Lex so into this song was awesome. She knows a good song when she hears it. Keep on keep on rockin' Brad & Lex!
Haha, YES! Great song, great reaction as always : )
Plus, your channel has taught me something - never settle for someone who doesn't react to you the way Lex reacts to guitar solos! lol
I love watching them listening to music from my era. Keep rocking you two
Classic 80s metal,loved this when it came out, so good 🤟
This song basically single-handedly mainstreamed metal…amazing how good it sounds 40 years later.
I was a roadie for a metal band ( Medusa) back in the 80's. We rented a studio to have rehears and jam in Hollywood. Quite Riots gear cases were in the same space we used. Was kind of cool, they weren't they were just on the cusp of being huge. Just one of my memories from my youth.
Nice. 🤘✌️👍
Loved them in concert the energy was of the charts!
This was the first metal cassette I ever bought. Loved it and never looked back.
Ya'll are the coolest... This song and Def Leppard's Foolin' were my gateways into metal at 14 years old. It's a joy to see that it still hooks people 40 years later.
I have heard this song so many times that admittedly, I'm absolutely bored sh*tless of it. But Lex reminds me of the first time I ever heard it.
Nah I ain’t never get tired of this song, I think you really just over played the shit out of it
Been listening since 1983, I'm 57 and still not bored with this song. Kept me alive back then. Calms the savage beast.
I clicked on this thinking I hadn't watched before, and saw this comment at the top. No idea wtf I was on about, this song f*cking rules (once again!)
Yep, Lex gets it musically. I actually went and got this album out of my LP collection after listening to you. Kind of dates me and how long I have been into rock and metal, but it’s just as good now as it ever was. So much variety.
Lol would I have never guessed that Brad was going to like this song 😂🤘
When you listen to this kind of song, you have to move your head back and forth to the beat, like you're banging it against a wall...hence the lyric "bang your head". Now imagine thousands of fans at their concerts doing it in unison. It's fire!!
This entire album is amazing, Y'all - "Love's A Bitch" is one of my favorites from it. RIP Kevin Dubrow (Singer) & Frankie Banali (Drummer)...and former guitarist Randy Rhoads who left QR to join Ozzy Osbourne's solo band after he left Black Sabbath...
Yes, "Love's A Bitch" ....and "Slick Black Cadillac"
Well, Ozzy was actually fired from Sabbath.
Frankie Banali was a very underrated drummer. Great solid and steady rock drummer.
@@theidajawho Makes me feel like a king. I only need one thing... I dug both of those songs. I played that album endlessly back in 1983/84
Thunderbird is a beautiful tribute to Randy Rhoads! I have always loved that song.
Can't go wrong with QUIET RIOT !!!! Great concerts !!! RIP KEVIN AND FRANKIE
I loved these guys when I was a kid... remember seeing them on Solid Gold, totally blew my mind. Check out Mama We're All Krazee Now :)
Another Slade song
You have just been blessed with the timeless sound of the Kevin Dubrow and Randy Rhodes duo. Sadly Randy died a plane crash just six short years after the band struck it big and Kevin died in 2014 (?) from a drug overdose. Randy is considered a guitar god and Kevin is a rock legend himself. RIP "Don't Stay Quiet, RIOT!"
Randy Rhodes the Quiet Riot guitarist left and became ozzy osbourne's guitarist. Some of the best Ozzy tunes (Diary of a madman and blizzard of OZ). Sadly he tragically died in an airplane accident trying to buzz the Ozzy tour bus with the airplane. Still considered a rock god!
He actually left before this album. The guitarist here is Carlos Cavazo.
Randy Rhoda’s did not play on this album
Rhoads
Randy left Quiet Riot a few years before this album was released. He was only in the band from 77-78. Would have been cool to see him stay and shred. I have the CD that was released in 93 that has Rhoades demos from that time. I was lucky enough to see this original line up back in 83 when this album dropped with Loverboy who was really good live but Quiet Riot ruled that night.
Randy was dead long before this album was released.
She comes up with the wackiest craziest analogies for the singer's vocal tone. I love it!!!!
Within the metal scene you will meet the most humble and down to earth people you can ever meet. The music cleanse you body and soul and resets everything inside you.
Lex’s reactions are infectious. She is genuinely rocking out! Rock one Lex!
I grew up on 80’s rock and metal, this song brings me back there, thanks you guys.
Lex nailed this one! The song is simple and straight forward. Metal health is all you need.
I’ve always LOVED this song. They were a really great band
