aye remember sisters and brothers easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle...prepare and maintain our Matthew 22 wedding garment. selAhMEN

[BeatleEDs]

I'm that Crazy 80s Guy!

[pearllljam]

I have always loved this song...

Nice little video here. Videos from years ago make me feel nostalgic... Thanks for sharing with the world. :) I was especially interested since I now live in LA.

[KweeZuul]

Terrific. I miss LA, but I could never live there again.

[pearllljam]

@KweeZuul Where do you live now? I have a feeling once I move I will not miss this place too much...

1991 was the last year "they" (secret Israeli nuclearism) allowed me to live in Los Angeles. And that was on Catalina-Alcatraz! And I was born there (Torrance).

[MrKennethlittles]

anyone know what song this line is from "suddenly you were gone from all the lives you left your mark upon"

[zachary0526]

@MrKennethlittles "Afterimage" by Rush

[worldwildwest]

Not the Official Video but Great Song,

[WanderingGnome]

love the song - love the video! Brings back memories.....

[avacadodance]

striptease anyone?

[bb4960]

L.A. gets rich by supplying halo (radio-Hypnotic Intracranial Visual Holographic Micro-biochips) implanted People to certain restricted U.S. cities (controlled by clandestine subterranean labs using synthetic telepathy/neuro-impulse weapons) and holding said individuals in "secret radiation captivity" for "processing" (subliminal brainwashing) into the "corporation". Sure. L.A.'s nice, but there is a secret hidden cancer there that will inevitably destroy it unless significant changes are made.

[SyHopeful]

hahahah i love nutjobs like you, make youtube comments funny. OMG VAPOR TRAILS, JET BLUE IS POISONING OUR SOILS

[bb4960]

"Syhopeful OMG VAPOR TRAILS JET BLUE IS POISONING OUR SOULS" anagram-ciphers to "HE'S SLIME; DOOR NERVOUS & IN GP/DoD2 JAIL PIT LABS. DUD PODS FUTUROLOGY".

[SyHopeful]

hahahah somebody forgot to take their lithium

[bb4960]

He DoD2 & does mid-flash thought mad hatter 4 you fit Pi 2 lab door key.

[raposofan]

Crikeys, I used to live in Los Angeles and as soon as I see that Washington Blvd sign it's like I'm there again. Too accurate, my friend. You give me chills. Happy to be in New York City where the town doesn't go out of its way to try to destroy you. "It burns, mommy! Take it away!"

[jeff99az]

song would fit perfectly as the "swan song" for those Donald Trump - wannabees back in 2006 before the crash!

[rowdymax1]

One of the greatest opening lines to arguably the most underrated song of the 80's.."Miss Christina drives a 944, satisfaction oozes from her pores..." tells you all you need to know about LA in those crazy days. God bless Youtube.

[ErieBoy62]

This song has absolutely got the best guitar riffs I have ever heard, they just wail away at the right times and really give this song an urban (not inner city) feel.

[bullshitter2008]

i always liked this song, luv it!!

[Alpha1AU]

Thank you so much for your video which so magnificently compliments this brilliant song. "Welcome to the Boomtown" was actuallly a bigger hit here in Australia than in the U.S. It reached #21 on the charts here. It so eloquently speaks of the dichotomy to be found in affluent and decadent society such as in Cali... and with such a dream-like quality in the sound. This is the only song of theirs that I got to know but regard it as an absolute American classic of teh Era! Thanks again!

[1airportsignguy]

Welcome Chrissy Russo KWSB San Diego 5....fun addition...the best sort of Newscaster...

[cdputzier]

Finally......when my nephew was 3 we would ask him what sound money made, and he would say succulent.....

[yosoytoto]

[steve88850]

Loved this, every track on the album is great, wore out two cassettes before I finally got the CD. Boomtown was an album before its time.

[dirtyratmiller]

Nicely done! I almost skipped it, because I don't care for other people's home videos. Glad now that I didn't! Are you in film?

[BeatleEDs]

Yes, thats me doing the driving. Time flys so fast. This is like yesterday for me but its almost 20 yrs ago. well 17 yrs. Man, that went fast.

[deachick]

This is such great footage for this song! Awesome.

[Lar24man]

[BeatleEDs]

God Bless, keep it up... you go

[lcvideofreak]
