[turtle413]

I WORKED AT HAMMERJACKS FROM 86 TO 89 SAW EVERYONE WHO WAS GONNA BE AND PARTIED WITH THOSE WHO HAD ALREADY MADE IT !!!!!!! FORGOT ABOUT MORE FUN THEN MOST WILL EVER HAVE,

[HomerPL]

I HATE THIS BALLAD! Really. Not because it is "dirty". It should be like that. It is simply neglected.

[meddykripa]

Was Kix really Glam Rock? I never thought of them as Glam...my bad.  I loved seeing them at Hammerjacks...

[andy60234]

HAMMERJACKS!!!! FTW......

[hotdamnman1]

I am so old, I remember when MTV played music videos!!!

[fred1671]

These boys are from my home town... I got to see them a ton in the 80's as a young teen! Too bad they never received national recognition, though. They were pretty damn talented group of lads...

[rockrabbitt]

their best song.

[bluetiege]

these guys should have quit while they were behind, they were never that good and the singers voice has always sucked bigtime

[fred1671]

@bluetiege Not at all, bro. They held their own quite nicely in that era of music.

[trina1369]

Please go to the higher quality version if u hate this version, it is still the highest viewed version on youtube so stop yelling at me

[beerkat88]

appears you are being harangued on here. youtube is the last bastion of unmoderated flaming. dont let people get to you.

[JonPilat111]

yea i just let em talk i made a better version so they cant say crap anymore, happy new years

[Tyranney]

we cant find a decent version version because mother fuckers don't respect glam rock. ppl who are shit stains on the underwear of life rather listen to that bigot prick Conway west who uses programs like acid pro and fruity loops. no talent as prick

[JonPilat111]

i didnt mean to get you mad i just put it on for other people

[LeeSpringer77]

@Tyranney But Still, I love this song and have been searching it for days on end and when I got Skid Row-I remember you, I seen KIK- Don't close your eyes, i was like hold up is this the song I was looking for? and yes it was, than I found that is all poor quality of a tune on this you tube, But still a very good song, I wished they were bigger than wahat they are.

[JonPilat111]

check out my new hq version link in decription

[JonPilat111]

check out my new version, better quality

[wendellgee1985]

Still don't understand why it is so difficult to find a DECENT version of this on YT (i.e. your tone blows).

[JonPilat111]

sry i have a new hq version i wanted it to sounf better too

[BatsBasilica]

What good is "HQ" if the copy has poor sound quality. Did this come from a worn out cassette tape?

[JonPilat111]

sry i have a new hq version i wanted it to sounf better too

[4444ThinLizzy]

Wow! Thanks to whoever put this on here! We're only "closing" our eyes to the "loved ones" left here on this plane of existence! Our eyes are open in a much better place!!

[JonPilat111]

[SPYDERWOMAN67]

it may not sound the best, but IT IS THE BEST YOU ARE GONNA FIND ON YOU TUBE that;s not live. they delete all the others. so maybe that is what is preserving this awesome song. TX JonPilat111

[djfrank68]

[ditdeb]

Also this song took on a new meaning for me when my best friend died. Although it was not a suicide, she fell asleep behind the wheel of her car. So now I cry for a different reason when I hear it. But love it just anyway. thank you posting and bringing Kix to the Youtube world for everyone to enjoy! btw..I have meet and drank beer with these guys. Stevie is such a sweetheart. Very nice and polite man. Not what you would think from listening to some of the lyric of their songs. lol lol

[ditdeb]

Love these guys and this is one of my favorites that they do. I think they should of been bigger than they were. They could of gone so far if the right person would of got them.

[guyinphose]

Great song, but I must admit, this version remixed through what sounds like a styrofoam cup is even better!

[ClocktowerGuardian]

The solo gets me everytime! I love it!

[ohrazio]

i dont undesrtend ni mothers

[deehall4]

amazing i love it!!<3

[vividvixen13]

this is the most powerful ballad. This is my favorite song ever. It gives me goose bumps his voice is amazing. the lyrics are have depth and deal with a taboo subject that could present with taste. '

[JonPilat111]

yes its a great ballad

[deehall4]

Awesome stuff. What a great band. I agree with what one of the other comments said...Blow my Fuse was one of the best albums I've ever heard.

[teresaevans76]

love this song and growin up my mom hated everything i listened to but for some reason she really loved this song. it was a really important song to me, and helped me through a rough patch in my teenage years.

[kishaoh]

Me too. In my early teen years, I had thought alot about committing suidcide, because I was going through different life changes about not being accepted and etc. This song came out when I was in the 11th grade and I have always loved it. Now that I am 35 and will be 36 this friday, I have alot to be thankful for. I thank God for bringing me through this.

[renee10jr5]

hell yes i love this song dearly my my ex husbands best friend was my kids sunday school teacher at church and it was a very sad situation him and his wife were seperating and divorcing and phillip thought there was no other way out other than suicide and he done it in the fellowship hall of our church my ex bout lost his mind over that but he pulled through but we miss phillip more and more everyday thanks kix RIP Phillip we love you forever

[oaoadasd]

that is some powerful stuff! I am almost speechless!

[74associates]
