damn yankees coming of age (official video)

[youngyfromcaerau]

ted nugent...what a fuckin typical big headed american cunt

[yannickmessaoud]

Nothing can beat good old rock heavy metal, today music yeah it sucks

[daadennis]

vhiclassic you just have great taste in music

[seattwa]

I'm sure egos got in the way, but they were only together as a short time band. And they knew it. Temporary gig.

[gizmokc]

I hated this song when it first came out, but after seeing it done live(Damn Yankees were opening for Bad Co.), it quickly became one of my favorites.

[omnibones12]

I actually voted Teddy ,as a write-in candidate,in 1992

and proud of it. HUm Ted Nugent or Barrack HUSSAIN Obama?

easy for me

[saito9317]

ted rocks!!!

[Menyhard1]

Great song great super band.it to bad that big ego that got in the way

[TheJohnmetal]

You can't beat the motor city madman he's nuts

[evarojas]

Amazing band, song and everything!!! Awww and that magic of Ted Nugent.

[lisany749]

Sounds like Def Leppard almost singing this song.

[MARCLORINSER]

Tank you Damn yankees YOURE FRIEND marclorinser.de germanys 40-voice man i sang in the House of Lords Band produced by GENE SIMMONS /KISS

[jcramer5150]

they sound kinda like Ratt a little bit. its cool.

[elvin451977]

this yankees are great, one of my favorite band

[11Bost]

Looks like 7 people aren't coming of age.

[eusupermex1]

Ted rocks!!!!

[Paul9822]

What ever happened to the lead singer of stix what was he name

[MercEmAll]

@Paul9822 they all sang sort of. mainly it was Tommy and Dennis Young I think his name was. I don't know all their names. Dennis was their keyboardist too.

[zDrumz13]

@Paul9822 Do you mean Dennis Deyoung (also keyboardist)? He left Styx in the mid-90s and now tours and records solo, playing both Styx songs and his own original material. He also recently wrote a musical version of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame".

[Paul9822]

no one can jam like Taommy Shaw and Jack Blade

[Paul9822]

But one can jam like Tommy Shaw and Jack Blade

[MrBrianMaiden]

Sherdding leads from Un Ted! love it

yeah!!

[TheSonofhermes]

where's the EPIC button!?!

[gentlemenjocard]

I think I just had a guitargasm.

[TheChuckNorris1997]

I think the reason they broke up was they couldn't handle The Nuge.

[vestenamer]

my first concert back in 91 they were big then lol...fuck im gettin old

[478cowboy]

Uncle Ted for President!!!

[MyJd1977]

@478cowboy I will register then.

[2bornot2b1984]

This is cheese at it 's most refined.

[TheDammitray2]

best damn band ever!!!!!!!

[lovebreaxnna]

In my English class we were learning about themes and how a common theme was 'coming of age' (when characters develop throughout the story). I started singing this at random, nobody else knew what the hell I was doing/singing but I'm pretty sure my teacher caught on xD

[fleischpudding]

@lovebreaxnna I once sang in class too, then my classmates mistook me for a homosexual and raped me

[vhiclassic1233452]

omg i love this song! so epic! i maybe 15 but i still know that todays music cant beat this! seriously! i have an old soul lol!

[nwtampaguy34]

@vhiclassic1233452 keep that old soul. Music today is only getting worse.

[jamerock12]

@vhiclassic1233452 sounds like me x) 80's for the win 

[MyJd1977]

@vhiclassic1233452 I have always said that I have an old soul. I am 34 now and I am stuck in some of the 60-70's and 80's. I agree with you, this song is awesome!

[gizmokc]

@HippikillerHu, thank you, I knew it was something along those lines.

[gizmokc]

The best song that Ted, Tommy, and Jack(and whatever the drummers name is, last I knew, he was the drummer for Skynyd, Michael something), ever did.

[HippikillerHu]

@gizmokc Michael Cartellone:)

[danning1]

@gizmokc My favorite of theirs is "Come Again," actually.

[airbrush4you]

Rock and fucking roll! YES!!!!!!!!!!!

[www41WorldUSAcom]

Damn Yankees - "Come of Age"

[curt2004100]

Love the damn yankees they took the best from different bands and made one awesome one.

[littlelotte689]

hell yeah!

[motleycrue24]

fuck ya!

[rocknation4ever]

wtf is that little boy doin right there it looks like hes jacking off but in public?.

[tbro1967]

Even in their first, Ted wants 2 be the man. Can't blame him, awsome song, solo 3 thumbs up!

[sassygirl0453]

Great guitar parts! This one of my favorite songs.

[therockoo75]

only good guy in this bad was ted

[redrider07419]

its shit like this that makes me happy i wasn't born until the very end of the 80's.

[tulisnamakamu]

they do it with style..very natural..its not like watching pretty boys rock wannabe of today music..

[MelMelsNRich]

This was the first "Super Group"! 

[warpigSCR]

@MelMelsNRich was it hell, what about Cream and Bad Company

[MelMelsNRich]

@warpigSCR what i meant by super group was each member was sucessfull elsewhere before making their own band together, i dont think cream was because Clapton wasnt known much, but cream did make him, bad company was all mish mash to begin with

[mscathy12341]

great in concert inthe 90s

[Gettotaco]

This is what I like to call a legend band.

[Audreysstone]

The end of Rock 1992... I was a t Daytona Beach for the break that year!~

[chellbelle43]

these guys are awesome!!!!

[terrandavis]

all that talent...Man I luv the 80's! they play n the write n they sing...beat that!

[airbrush4you]

This song frikin' rocks! My era had the greatest rock and roll by far!

[justinorr1700]

the nuge can tear up a guitar

[gadgetable64]

Ted Nugent was great at one time until he lost his mind...Now he is nothing more than a Shill for the now defunct GOP...RIP Ted..Scum sucking Repuke!!

[airbrush4you]

@gadgetable64

Haha! Keep talking liberal! If you can't use a good argument refer to personal attacks, the left wing way! Loser!

[777butch777]

Wow!

[frikinfrank1969]

[Vitobly]

[qaiserismee]

[777butch777]

This kicks ass!

[freightliner1053]

hay jurk if u dont like ted well u know what u can do, hes areal american dont forget it boy.......

[bigdckrick]

right after they finished shooting this video, ted nugent went out and sucked someone's dick, then tried to pretend to be macho by going all right-wing loony and carrying a gun

[bfnputz]

@bigdckrick You seem to have a lot of knowledge about this incident, perhaps that someone was who? YOU!!!!

[jeanniecee]

Ted Nugent, Jack Blades & Tommy Shaw???...OH...be STILL my heart!! LOL

[JoviAngel60]

@jeanniecee No doubt!! Jack alone does it for me! Put them all together and it's a heart attack waiting to happen!haha

[jofey901]

this song kicks major fuckin ass

[hospitalbedpan1]

This song had to be written by that night ranger guy. He's notorious for cheesey lyrics lol. As for the music itself, not sure who had the most influence.

[prudenceislandboy]

Awesome fuckin band , but too many huge egos on one stage.

[kingrocker44]

Intro sounds like .38 Special's "Caught Up in You"

[Buuurpe]

Is that EVH on drums? (0:22) haha

[lightshiner4ubud]

im 14 years old and this music rules.

[tysonpeter]

how comei cant stop listenin' to this? i guess cuz it rocks my fuckng socks off THATS WHY

[Lorryhell]

One of the best bands I have ever seen live. Absolutely beautiful!

[Southblaine]

Its kinda sad I'm 32yo and my nephew 19yo, you should hear the shit he listen to. Early 90's was a great time for rock, you could say it was coming of age.

[DannyRSR]

@Southblaine: Then steal your nephew's girlfriend and educater her with good old rock classes, you will go back in age ¡¡¡¡¡

[Southblaine]

you cant find music like this anymore :(

[maximushuts]

@Southblaine let's hope that it remains this way.

[tysonpeter]

this would get ya in the mood i tell ya

[joeslick65]

@ guitarchik38 they do it's the crap from American Idol and from the Disney Channel-Jonas Brothers. I was lucky to see The Damn Yankees in concert in the early 90's. Awesome show!

[ALTDOK666]

@joeslick65 ...two words for ya...quit drugs, dude...OK, three words.

[joeslick65]

@ALTDOK666 Fuck  asshole! No one asked you.

[ALTDOK666]

@joeslick65 ...oh.

[OneLifeWithEachOther]

Damn Yankees REUNITE PLEASE

[ojicreewarcry]

[ADTR3421]

[dogsrule5551]

LOVE this song!!!

[padawan007]

[synisternyaa]

I love, love, LOOVE this song. And that is one sexy zebra guitar.

[piperzdad]

Their drummer is playing with Lynard Skynard now...what a change

[hannaaaaaaaaahfish]

Damn those Yankees! I love it! I love it!

[shawn2571]

i'm not big on the whole girly hairstyles and all but it is truly a shame we don't musicians like this now a days! :oP

[Blazer7x70]

WOW,Cant believe its still here!Great job Glaaammm.Cant believe that dude called you a ,,,,,,,,,,well you know.All I can say about him is hes WACKED! Here where Im at the term,Hes ate up would fit ya think?Lol.Take care,Peace out!

[tbone796201]

The metal music had dominance over the world, public, and governments until grunge came and took over from there on in, it is our jobs to bring back the ear ringing, eye popping sound of hairband metal back to the ears and voices of people around us, the grunge needs to be stomped on and beaten while metal shines on every single one of us!

[TheRedhairlady]

@tbone796201 You couldn´t have said it better!

[tbone796201]

@TheRedhairlady Thank you for your consideration, it is deeply obliged.

[CoolKwstas123]

@tbone796201 Yeah man . I wanted to say that too but i didnt know so awsome way!!

[guitarchik38]

I wish people still made music like this! It's amazing!!! =D

[tbone796201]

@guitarchik38 I AGREE!

[matthbva]

You whippersnappers don't know jack! lol! Damn Yankees was about the last good hard rock/hair metal band to come out before grunge spoiled the fun. Their first album hit in 1990. Good times while they lasted. Nevermind by Nirvana hit in 1991.

[corz000]

@matthbva I do \m/ Damn yankees freakin kicks ass and so does Classic Rock magazine AOR edition hahaha huge Journey n Night Ranger article \m/ ROCK 4 LIFE AOR N MELODIC RULES!!

[leadchick]

@matthbva I'm with ya....these boys were hot!!!  Saw Jack two years ago w/Nightranger still rockin solid.

[chucksterbull]

i think Damn yankees were early 90's not 80's

[mrnewfie33]

This is a good song , funny thing I grew up in the eighties but we never listened to Damn Yankees up here in NL , Canada our lost !!

[tbone796201]

This like all the other 80's music kicks ass! GO DAMN YANKEES! even though you aren't together anymore

[4samreno]

Of course being a Mother of 3 Girls...it might make me question WHY I love this song...BUT I DO!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheRedhairlady]

@4samreno Why not?!

[ratter52]

One of the Greatest rock songs ever written, by a band of rock Legends!

[hairyget]

Class !!

[ROCKDRIGOSORTINO]

IS GREAT TOMMY

[Kenkiske]

pure 90's hard rock

[cjhsa]

The best ever.... maybe....

[tngrogan]

supper band lots of great talent reminds me of the firm, from missippijb

[covertonejohn]

Are there any voices that blend more smoothly together than Shaw/Blades? Those boys know how to harmonize!

[DangerBugsy]

One of the best supergroups in history, call them what you want, but Jack Blades + Ted Nugent + Tommy Shaw together make a super group to me. they'd all proved their worth well before Dam yankees came around.

[jdenyou]

We all bow before the gods of rock

[MrViggosson]

This is great...

[bipolarjohnny]

Nugent fukkin rules

[summersavannah01]

ABSOLUTE KICK ASS ROCK AND ROLL

[NoDropLS]

GOD DAMN THIS ROCKS

[fun4u68]

ted nugent is one of the best guitarists ever

[slagdraggin1313]

Tommy is no slouch either,Bro!

[yagamituxo]

man, this music is so fuckin good *---*

[Buuurpe]

Is that Ed on drums? ;)

[dman7791]

no its the drummer from lynerd skynerd micheal cortilone

[madmartyr17]

i heard jack was trying to get them back together, can anyone confirm

[rzatherazor2]

i heard the same...

[luvinevryminitofit88]

Heard rumors. I truly hope the rumors are true!!!!

[caputo1000]

he said on a interview on vh1 classic that we was working with ted nugent on some new material but no dates are set.

[VikngWarrior]

Tommy Shaw looks like one of the female singers from ABBA...LOL

Seriously, this is a great song and 4 great musicians making real magic.

[luvinevryminitofit88]

whatever tdfins...What the hell's he gonna hunt in N.D? Gophers?

[gizmokc]

oops, Michigan and North Dakota, I mean

[gizmokc]

Michigan North Dakota are not all that far apart, I'm sure Uncle Teddy has hunted there, and places you can't even imagine, dude

[rzatherazor2]

He hunts in upstate new york cause my brother has seen him..

[Doug4422]

I've seen him in southeastern Iowa during Deer season, pulling good size bucks out of the wooded areas down here.

[Ghostface13]

@Doug4422

He has a house here in Kansas near where I live. He only ever goes to it for the races at Heatland Park and the hunting when it's deer season.

[lordbale33]

this deserves to be one of the top 10 best rock songs ever made hands down !!!!

[justin42coker]

why the hell would anyone wanna go to north dakota.. plus why are you watching adamn yankees vid if Hate Ted Nugent?

[ste74le73]

Thx for posting this video. I don't like watching music video channels anymore because they don't show great vid's like this anymore. I'm not impressed with Warner Music either pulling stuff off yt. They don't unnderstand what they are losing out on, this is publicity for them.

Again, thx for this post, what a great band and song.

[luvinevryminitofit88]

Outstanding group!! Seen em live. Ted is a monster!!! Would have Loved to see Ted and Stevie Ray Vaughan together!!

[MrBeerman24]

I saw them with Bad Company..... GREAT SHOW!!

[biginchhemi]

Thank you so much for posting this! I have been jonesing for some DY for a while. I think Warner is satisfied now so it should not be taken down.

[hyoma1297]

por fin... casi no suben este video ... excelente

[bparker111665]

This is why i boycott major labels. Stick it up their profiteering asses. American Capitalism was never meant to be like this. You have to fight the powers sometimes. Read Jefferson and you will see what I mean.

[LBjim]

Warner Bros will yank this soon, so enjoy for right now..

[glaaammm]

i don't think so...

[LBjim]

I hope not but they will probably will..

[glaaammm]

well, i wrote below what i have done... with the dispute for "copyright". and it's legal..

[LBjim]

Cool, Don't get me wrong. I'm all for it but I see a lot of cool videos get yanked by "Big Brother" which is fucked but it is all about control..Peace

[dh1193]

@LBjim Yeah Dude, nuthin like night ranger, styx, and THE NUGE.

[rzrbknik12]

Wow the good ol days. Love those hair bands LMAO! Still sounds good.

[JoviAngel60]

This has always been a favorite of mine. Damn Yankees could rock and that's for sure!! Great video! Thanks for posting it!

[rzatherazor2]

Of course... look who's in the band !!

[brandybemyname]

one o mine to/.thanks angel :D

[MetallicBill]

They can smother it with ads, if they choose, like my Night Ranger Nevermind audio uploads (with driving footage), matches Third Party Content

[Doublewid3]

LOL! 3:30 he looks like his grabbing his crouch and rocking back and forth its funny!

[1kydde2]

the drummer looks like eddie van halen

[Assault018]

the drummer looks like michael cartellone

[miketheblueeagle]

awesome song hope you can make this song stay on here forever

[glaaammm]

it will stay :D

[MetallicBill]

IF not, however, LiveVideo IS YOUR FRIEND!! It loves the vid YT and Warners yanked over here

[Blazer7x70]

I sure missed this one!Glad its back,but for how long though!Thanks for this grat POST!
