  • Probably Steve Clark's best riffs - pure win!!

  • this kicks ass!!!

  • Def leppard fur immer!!

  • Hmmm, can someone help me please?

    I see the thumbs down "Dislike" button and I also see the thumbs up "Like" button, but where the heck is the high five "EPIC" button because THAT'S the one that needs to be clicked for this masterpiece of music?!

  • @MindyYumYum  totally agree =)

  • Awesome band.

  • Day 36:

    Still trying to find cliffthelightning's comment. Starting to run low on rations.

    Send help soon.

  • Guys...sorry. If you ask me Def Leppard changed 1983, and not for the better

  • @ldrslucas Just as well no one asked you then huh..

  • This is an amazing song, reminds me a bit of white lightning. Def Leppard is amazing :)

  • With s1867 passed and the fema camps activated thought i would listen to this song again while i still have a chance.....good luck people

  • Sure does bring back memories :) Def Leppard is one of those bands i'll listen to for the rest of my life.

  • This defines epic!

  • steveがいないとだめだ

  • These young American's sent a message to terrorist everywhere You can run But you can't hide "Ronald Reagan" Def Leppard FTW.

  • @ridder6689 Def Leppard is Bristish, not American.

  • @NoGripRacingGTR2 Lol i was talking about the Reagan speech near the end of the video you can hear it at 5:48 and 6:06, i just quoted the whole thing he said i know Def is british.

  • r.i.p tommy..i hope to see you when it's my turn to go. :/

  • Clearly the best Leppard song in my opinion. Thank you so much to my dad for getting me into hard rock and heavy metal!!!!

  • LOL what happened to music it used to be epic I'm pissed my dad shot me out in 89 and not like 1965 so i could've lived in the most amazing decade ever!!!!!!!

  • every one thinks I'm weird for liking the '80's... they don't know what they're missing, DEF LEPPARD FOREVER!

  • @riftworldking hey I wasn't born in the 80's but i feel like i lived in that era, and everything from that time period kicks ass compared to today.

  • @riftworldking i was just a little kid in the 80's and i had no idea there was an awsome band like def leppard until i saw the movie hysteria and the behind the music episode in 2001 but hey better late then never.

  • @aztecwarriorize your right dont forget there is alot of their music on albums that didnt make it on the radio in the 90's so check out "X" and "slang" and "euphoria" "slang is an grunge attempt, that was diffferent for them, but at least they tried, it is worth buying, late or not they appreciate it and so do the long time fans like me, glad your aboard, any questions just ask.

  • @scarrtts the adrenalize album was good my favorite songs r tonight and white lightning awsome songs even though steve clark is gone they still rock poor guy had so many demons but vivian has done a good job in his place

  • This really shows what a unique guitar player steve clark was. He's an inspiration to me.

  • UUFF SE ARMARON LOS PUTASOS

  • I AM ADDICTED TO THIS SONG

  • Steve Clark. "Nuff said.

  • Fantástico!

  • steve clark

  • ronald reagan who knew

  • Man... only a genius to come up with a riff like that... Totally killer !

  • I really like this song.

    There is a lot of truth in what it says.

    Ron Paul knows we don't need this war machine.

    It's for control, profit ,and corporate greed.

    Start fighting those who cause it.THE BANKSTERS! ronpaul2012. c o m

  • @Infoman665 Fuck Politics, they're all the goddamn same bullshit.. 

  • ronald reagan at the end? can anybody tell me?

  • @CumInAsses Yes. These samples are from a very famous pair of speeches by Ron Reagan and Maggie Thatcher.

  • @MrSunrise1961 kk thankx ;)

  • Ya know what the best thing about the Special Olympics is???? Not being in it !!!!!!!!

  • Perfect!

    

  • the best album ever produced. period :>

  • the best album..

  • Has anyone noticed the resemblance to The Beatles' "She's So Heavy"?

  • I haven't heard this song in years and I still love it. Leppard was THE band I learned guitar with all by myself at 17.

  • @temporal3x

    wtg man..I started playing guitar when I was 7..Im 47 now

  • Epic song

    Their sound never grows old

  • I love Hysteria but if this was a perfect world there would be a Def Leppard album where EVERY song in it would be as dark and serious as Gods of War.

  • thickest, richest sound EVER!!!!

  • Oh the memories, I'll never forget the flannel sheets. lol I miss you!!!!!

  • this would be a great tattoo to have

  • Hysteria is the "Thriller" of hard rock! Period!

  • love this album when i purchased it back in 1988 i played it up and down.24 hours a day 30 days in a month.yeah and my technics player never gave up working.that was quality work from def leppard and from the Panasonic company.

  • Gods of war = love.

  • This band ROCKS, i listen to these guys 24-7. I don't care much for the shit today, im just glade these guys are still Rocki'n and Rolli'n after 30 years.

  • @Autobotjazz110 me to at work or anytime of the day love this song

  • the beginning lick is a really tough riff

  • @dronevalleykk Nothing but Retard is kinda offensive

  • @prettyjohnshill Thats the PARALYMPICS you idiot .. special olympics is for mentally challenged people ...

    Do some research before you try too act smart

  • nice post leopodstanicky...Steve was a god...another underrated song by the guys

  • Very funny ryomaslade45! Hope you don't get any backlash, cos that was classic!

  • HYSTERIA PROBABLY 1 OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER MADE!

  • @marks1979efc Not one of. IS

  • @marks1979efc Not probably, it is!

  • @marks1979efc I wouldn't go that far, but "Pyromania" is definately one of the best rock albums ever made.

  • sweet song i feel like that down and lost i love the antiwar song

  • Over 50 million records sold, I imagine they can live with the displeasure of 2 people on youtube.

  • this song is kickass

    

  • most lame youtube arguement goes to the noobs arguing in the comments of awesome song.

    kickin it

  • @Ryomaslade45 Youtube arguments are like the special olympics...Even if you win your still a Retard

  • @cliffthelightning you're*** lol

  • @cliffthelightning lol. but still. Def leppard Rocks XD

  • @cliffthelightning seriously this stupid quote is being tossed around so much its not even funny. How is a youtube argument any different from an argument in real life? Its still two sides trying to out wit or prove the other wrong.

  • @cliffthelightning Nice comment, the only thing I would say about this is that at least the one's in the special olympics have a reasonable excuse, people like the one's who try to contradict you are just flat out dopes.

  • @cliffthelightning too many people think they are the man because they can call someone names and argue over a computer. Many of these youtube losers/users don't have the common sense to see how retarded it is to get worked up over an argument or statement OVER A COMPUTER/PHONE.

  • @starfannumberone agreed

  • @cliffthelightning LMAOROTGDF, LOL!!! Goddammit!

  • @cliffthelightning It looks like you won, haha.

  • @cliffthelightning It looks like you won, haha.

  • @cliffthelightning Looks like you won, haha.

  • Im winning... just like this song

  • @cliffthelightning or better yet just a plain "tardo"

  • @cliffthelightning You saying what you said about the participates of the special olympics don't prove anything other than the fact that you need to spend more time reading a dictionary, broadening your vocabulary, and less time on the internet. BTW, I'm not here to start an agument with you because I have far more important things to do with my time then to waste it arguing with some kid over the internet but I am here to point out just how ignorant/ narrow-minded you sound.

  • @michhar It's a stupid joke i made , I came here for the music ... let's all do that

  • @cliffthelightning you mean you're instead of your....retard

  • @hammer697169 I'm dutch so english isn't my mother tongue... ....but enough lets enjoy the song

  • @cliffthelightning hahaha dude that was funny and so true

  • one of the most well written songs i've ever heard

  • Best part is from 0:00 to 13:20. Cant watch it just once!

  • musica.....

  • love this song!!!!

  • British rock is so much more superior.

    

  • This song kicks ass! The guitar intro is quite excellent.

  • d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d
  • The sL

    ow part rules

  • Stick Fuck\

    

  • RIP Steve Clark..........

  • @Butcher94536 Why?

  • my fave def leppard song.

  • I spelled baptists wrong didn't I- there goes my crediability

  • @chuck79able .....and credibility. It's c-r-e-d-i-b-i-l-i-t-y.

  • Ya'll leave Bierber alone-he is just a pretty little retard for pre-teen girls to admire-no talent, a media whore

  • God bless God... funny. 

  • This song Rocks!!! Too bad this song didn't get played on the radio that much!!! This is their best song off Hysteria (maybe that's why).

  • The Reagan quotes in this song are from comments that he made after the US launched Operation El Dorado Canyon, which was a 1986 military operation against... wait for it... Libya. (No joke.)

  • I just got this cassette from good will! some idiot donated a box with 60 cassettes an i got the whole thing for 5 bucks! THIS ALBUM IS AMAZING!!!

  • My favourite track on Hysteria! I first heard this album back in '87 - when it was released!! I was 12 ;-D One of my favourite albums ever! I still have my original cassette version, lololol!! ;-D

  • from what movie is the last part???

  • @Gospel969 The last part of the song is not from a movie. They're vocal transcripts of speeches made by Ronald Reagan & Margaret Thatcher during the mid- to late 80s. They were both right-wing hawks who built their political positions whilst in power around posturing in public against the Soviet threat from the East. This song ridicules their bluster - because, ultimately, it was all about bluff. The USSR had just as much ammunition against them. It was a game. A very dangerous game!

  • @lusitanoemdublin07 AND IF IT Wasn't for powerful ICONs such as them, you couldn't flap you useless piehole. GOD BLESS ALLAH

  • @Jagdesh99 Allah means god. haha

  • Steve, you taught me to play the guitar. See you in heaven pal

  • This song reminds me of Hawaii.

  • well,

    if you are from illinois that explains alot. You can take your trash back.

  • We need another Ronald Reagan in office.. he didnt listen to the hollow threats made my the radical islamist, he sent fighter jets and blew them and their camels and their kids asses up. My hat is off to The Man, the legend, Ronald Reagan!!!!

  • I LOVE Reagan at the end of the song! "If you counted on America to be passive..... you counted WRONG!!" We NEED another Reagan in the USA...now. Not the wimp we have in the White House! Oh yeah.... and a great song!

  • @cndnhockeyplayer I think you're missing the point of the song...

  • @Elamdri I know exactly what the point of the song is... anti-war. I'm not a fan of war either, but there comes a time when it is necessary, and right now, it is necessary. Raical Islam is trying to destroy the world with it's HATE-FILLED religion, and it's up to those who don't want to follow their evil religion to stand up and fight against it. That is why I said we need another Reagan who will stand up to these murderers and give them what they deserve!

  • @cndnhockeyplayer So you're saying we need another president to squash worker's rights?

  • @organs worker's rights? when did he violate that? Those dumb ass air traffic controllers lost their jobs cause the were ordered to go back to work and when they didn't, he gave them the boot. They had their right to get the f out.

  • @viletantrum Wasn't he also the first president to balloon the national debt? Ah, but if Republicans magnify the Debt, there's a reason for it. When a Democrat does it, oh! Suddenly it's un-American! Wow, talk about a double standard.

    Not to mention, Islam is no more hate-filled than fundamental Christianity and Southern Baptism. It's the extremists of the religion that are to blame; not the religion as a whole. I even go to school here in Illinois with Muslims; they're not inherently bad.

  • @organs Hi there, sorry old boy but double standards are a european invention just look at the two faced lying motherf***ing governments that are in power over here in Europe. Ah well, nothing will change unless We The People (as quoted from THE BEST CONSTITUTION in the world but that is just only my opinion) decide to stop electing these EGOMANIACS into positions of authority then nothing will change. In the so-called democratic free nations (continued in next post)

  • @sarb172 Whether double standards are European in origin or not doesn't excuse them. And the biggest reason why the U.S. Constitution is the best (if it truly is) is because it guarantees equal rights and it's amendable. Which means, it allows room for progress. Which is how black people ceased being slaves and both black people and women were granted the right to vote. And FWIW, for the most part, Democrats are just trying to make life livable for all people. The GOP are the egomaniacs.

  • @organs (continued from last post) the majority of people, unlike yourself and other free thinking individuals, are asleep. I have the same difficulty here in GB. I would welcome ANY suggestions from yourself or anybody who reads this post as to what to do??? People are being lied to 24/7/365. How can people understand this? How can people be taught to think for themselves when the SYSTEM teaches "do as I say, not as I do" ?

  • @sarb172 If you're just going to declare any and every bit of news and information as an outright lie, then you're not actually thinking; you're just reacting without reason. If you consider both parties and objective news sources (and there ARE objective news sources; declaring otherwise without reason is foolhardy) and you pay attention to multiple news sources, then you'll see the nonsense for what it is. It's not hard to separate fact from ideological agenda.

  • @organs in response to your post, I have been paying attention to the infowars website. It does give a different view on what is going on. Although a lot of the news, not all, seems focused on what is happening U.S. but I feel that what is going on over there is going on over here (GB). Please understand that from where I live the terrestrial broadcast info is absolute bollocks and I AM trying to source real info about what is going on. I would appreciate your response.

  • @cndnhockeyplayer Damn Right!!!! Reagan was the Man.. He didn't run from a bunch of rock throwing towel heads, or take the time to listen to their hollow ass cowardly threats... Hide in a cave islamist.. they are the lowest of all cowards, except for the dumb ass Americans who sympathize with them... Cmon Man...

  • @markshetley1 when was the last time southern babtists attacked a foreign nation or mandated beating women for showing their faces in public?

  • @chuck79able I have read accounts of overly religious Christians and Southern Baptists (how come I can spell it right and you can't?) rigged bombs to cars of mothers taking their kids to school. Just because the school OK'ed a textbook that touches on evolution.  I know because I read about it while taking a class in college.

  • @organs Your are liar or your text book is a collection of fabrications. Link one credible source on Baptists rigging bombs to cars of other mothers taking children to schools. You're a Joseph Goebbel.

  • @DeadeyeSteve No, I specifically remember checking out the book from my school library and taking notes on the incident. It's kind of funny that you accuse me of being a liar when you can't prove to me that it DIDN'T happen.

  • @organs Interesting logic- you claim the ridiculous and challenge others to prove it didn't happen. Now I know you are a liar twice. First in the claim Baptism rigged bombs to cars, next that you were in college... oh, wait. On the modern college campus your clap-trap prolly earned you an A. You spouted it, put a reference to it. You took notes, remember?

  • @DeadeyeSteve I love Youtube commenters like you! You know absolutely NOTHING about me, yet you claim everything there is to know! Kinda like your perception of history and current events, right? You just believe what you want?

  • @organs Let us see... a radical change in the discussion away from the topic. This is a clear indicator you are caught in a lie. No proof to your silly ass claim so you attack and claim victimhood in the same response. COME ON!!! Pony up proof that Baptist rigged bombs to cars because a school used a textbook touched on evolution. You took the notes, you said so. It can't be that hard unless it's totally fabricated!!!

  • @DeadeyeSteve Whatever you want to claim...I'm sure it's also impossible that I took that class about a decade ago and I'd be damned if I still had the notes or report. Well, it's your logic. You seem to be making it up as you go.

    For what it's worth, keep in mind I'm not making any outlandish, speculative claims to your education or background. But take this into account: hardcore Christians and Baptists do not take kindly to schools that use science books which teach evolution.

  • Comment removed

  • @organs Still no proof? Awww, so sad. You've had two hours to ferret out some reference to Baptists rigging bombs to cars with mothers and children inside because a school's textbook touched on evolution. This a very serious event. Very newsworthy. And yet you can't provide us any reference to it... No notes, it was ten years ago, and still NO PROOF behind your claim BAPTISTS RIGGED BOMBS TO CARS WITH MOTHERS AND CHILDREN INSIDE!! Post proof or it didn't happen and you're a liar.

  • @DeadeyeSteve Whatever you want to tell yourself...The way you judge me on here, anyway, you wouldn't believe it even if I found news links. I just tried to post one link, but YouTube doesn't allow external links. Try it yourself. Does its existence really depend on me, now? Am I really the Weaver of the Cosmos you imply me to be? You don't even know enough to call me a liar. That implies you absolutely know what happened and that I'm contradicting truth. But you don't know what happened.

  • @organs I observe you just admitted to being so stupid as to be unable to defeat the youtube censors. That's awesome, not only a liar (Baptists rigged cars with bombs occupied by mothers and children because a school had a textbook with evolution included) but a bad liar (I can't post the link to my mythical allegation because youtube censored me). Your defense for the inability to prove your lie is stupidity! That's rich!! Come on, how about a date, source, location.

  • @DeadeyeSteve "The powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common: they don't alter their views to fit the facts. They alter the facts to fit their views."

    Observe it all you want. The fact of the matter is you WON'T look up readily available information yourself because you don't want to be wrong. Because apparently, it's too important to you to win a Youtube comments thread argument with a complete stranger.

    Keep making up the rules as you please. All it does is please you.

  • @organs OK, Goebbels, this will be good for you. Just admit it, you lied. You lied about over zealous Christians and Southern Baptists rigging bombs to cars being driven by mothers with children because a school taught about evolution. Admit you were called on your lie. Admit you lied about having a source for your lie. Admit I gave you direction on how to overcome the censors and your still uable to support your claim. Admit this all and STHU or post your source and I'll STHU.

  • @DeadeyeSteve Ummm.....no. Sorry. Because I wasn't lying.

    YOU'RE the one who wanted to argue. YOU'RE the one who wanted this. YOU can let this be the last comment and let it end, or you can spew your senseless vitriol and pat yourself on the back as you please.

  • @organs Nope, I can't- I am almost satisfied; I've shown you to be a Christian hater who fabricates statements about Souther Baptists. I've shown how your only defense is stupidity and disassembled it as well. Now I want you to admit it. (How terribly embarrasing this must be for you. Stepped too far out on that proverbial limp showing off to the other kiddies and got knocked off by a passerby who spotted you for a poser.)

  • @DeadeyeSteve The only reason you're satisfied is because you're deluding yourself. I've known Christians who are of sound mind and who don't automatically hate entire groups of people with little reason. I'm only a liar in your twisted, self-designed world where you make up all the rules and facts. But since I'm in reality, I'm not going to concede to your arrogance. Troll on. Otherwise, I'll keep reminding you of your self-delusion.

  • @organs I'm satisfied because I showed youtube the depth of your dishonesty.

  • @DeadeyeSteve Whatever you want to tell yourself. Go kneel before the altar of Youtube, then.

  • @organs LOL. After I sacrificed you upon it...

  • @DeadeyeSteve And you'd do that, wouldn't you? The actions of a rational, well-balanced person, I'm sure.

    So why don't you? Come and find me if you're so bent on cultish sacrifice.

  • @organs I would? I did... metaphorically. I laid you upon the Altar of Truth and virtually eviscerated you. I held your lying heart up for all to see. The gods of Youtube smiled and blessed me with many virgins. Now STHU and go away.

  • @DeadeyeSteve And Lo, how ineffective his sacrifice was, for his opponent remaineth...

    So if the god of Youtube blessed you with many virgins, does that make you an internet Muslim?

  • @organs "for his opponent remaineth," not really. It's godS, not god, so more like an internet Budhist. duh, winning.

  • @DeadeyeSteve There ya go again, trying to convince yourself that what you think is relevant to reality. I noticed that it took you a couple hours to come up with that response. Oh yeah, and I'm still here.

    Or, are you Charlie Sheen winning? Y'know, the kind of winning where the world makes fun of you for being a deluded lunatic? Because I'll agree to that...

  • @organs Unlike you, I went to the gun range and shot 200 rounds. I have a life outside YT. Whining? Hardly- more like gloating.

  • @DeadeyeSteve You can't have much of a life if "winning" a Youtube comments thread argument (by your standards, of course) actually pleases you that much. And oh, what a life! You fired a gun! Aren't you Mr. Compensation!

    The only reason you think you're "winning" is because you deluded yourself so. Like I said, the stupid alter the facts to fit their views.

  • @organs Hi dude, been away for a bit. How's thing's hanging? I am still waiting response from your last post. By the way I personally feel that insulting one another through YouTube is rather childish. I feel that respecting one another's point of view is more civil. Just because the governments of this wonderful world are fucking moronic, there is no need to stoop to their level. Kindest regards.

  • @sarb172 Sorry, I've been busy... Well, generally speaking, there are two forms of news media: one that practices (shamelessly) yellow journalism and caters to Republicans, and the more unbiased, objective news that portrays it as it is. There's some left-wing commentary, but generally, Republicans get pissy and childish about objective news and anchors known for winning awards. The far right is focused on ideologies and do not let facts get in the way of pride (see: Palin and Paul Revere).
