  • no one appreciates survivor as much as i do!

  • y estos ERAN los Emperadores y Reyes Absolutos del A.O.R. d los 80'

  • 6 people still didn't know.. :(

  • AOR at his Best...Long live Good Music..Music is Cure..Open Your Heart People..

  • Konocti Harbor- Kelseyville, Ca.-- Early 90's--- ended up with a drumstick.. Back then you ate supper right in front of the band!! RC

  • One of my favourite songs from Survivor.  Jimi Jamison, you still rock!

  • 6 people didn't know they loved this band.

  • GREAT MEMORIES OF HEARING THIS AT LAST YEARS FIREFEST WITH JIMI JAMISON SINGING IT AND SNOGGING THAT BIRD FROM BIRMINGHAM WITH THE BIG BAZOOMS! PERFECT!!!!

  • so beautiful, melodic,powerful,passionate...­.i feel that words cannot discribe the epicness of this song!!!

    Darla June Bear

  • Jimi you rock!!!

  • Miss the 80's!!!

  • 6 people like penis in their mouth

  • one of the best rock band of the 80's

  • This is such a great tune!!

  • que buen cantante

  • it great to see them have fun

  • i love the video and the song allways makes me feel good when i listen to it. go on jimmy ya the best.

  • what does AOR or Album-Oriented Rock means? Or how does it differs from other genre?

  • @jacosalem28 it's a softer kind of hard rock music that uses comercial chorus, that's AOR

  • this group was amazing

  • I'll never understand why this song wasn't played more on MTV during it's hey day. LOVED the song and still love it. Jimi Jamison was and is still SOOOO hot!

  • Too Hot To Sleep was one of the most underated AOR albums of the 80's.. In the history of melodic rock, Survivor should be as respected as the likes of Journey, Foriegner and Styx.

  • To this day I will never understand why this song was not a hit. We wore out the vhs tape playing this video over and over, simply infected by the pure chemistry of the band on stage. Whenever I see this I still get goosebumps. Jim Peterik is probably the most underrated music man in American history. Thank you for bringing joy to the lives of many

  • The whole album "Too Hot To Sleep" was underrated! It was loaded with potential Top 40 songs.

  • I feel so sorry for todays kids. They missed out bigtime!

  • To this day i still don't know why it wasn't a hit.

  • The backing vocals are so amazing than Jim's voice.

  • GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • simply stunning vocals! survivor simply the best american rock AOR band EVER! (Although Steve Perry remains the best ever singer and in different genres of music! )

  • I was with some friends on the east coast in 1990 or so and we stumbled into a bar with a $12 cover because Survivor was playing that night. I was blown away they were awsome.  Anyone who only knows them by Eye of the Tiger is missing out.

  • @72melp I never could find a place w/ less than a $50 cover charge, but I lived on the West Coast-in Los Angeles.

    The Rainbow, where I really liked going, had an $80 cover.

    Didn't go there often

  • Forever Har Rock-Aor,immortal!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

  • I love this group!!

  • I did not post that comment on Brazil... but I will find out who did

  • great band

  • Comment removed

  • Explains exactly how I'm feeling.

  • this song iz awesome , it has that summer feel...

  • Absolute classic feel good song. Pure class. Thankyou for posting

  • After watching this video a hundred times I went out an bought Charvel guitar (like Frankie's playing) lol. 1200 dollars well spent.

  • Perfect pop rock. This song never gets old. Kind of uplifting in a way. The main songwriter and founder of Survivor was once quoted as saying that all he wanted to do was "write great, moving rock songs" and "from 1982 to 1986 it was such a pleasure to listen to the radio, good music everywhere." .....Well put.

  • No se porqué esta canción no fue tan famosa...Es ESPECTACULAR!!!

    VIVA EL ROOOOCK!!!!!

  • Thanks for posting this song!

  • @fv3video

  • 10***********

  • such an amazing band you will always be my fav

  • Jimi best lead singer

  • @haywood16 Try Jorn Lande or Russel Allen ;)

  • @JasonBecker85 who?

  • @haywood16 try the songs ''Master of sorrow'' and ''When time doesn't heal'' from Allen/Lande collaboration album ;)

  • @JasonBecker85 What a sadness..Jorn sing in many groups...Try the album ''Burn the sun'' by Ark (NOT the Ark).Russel Allen sing in Symphony x,try album Paradise Lost and The divine wings of tragedy.Also Jorn and Russel make 3 album togheter,amazing!Also you have to listen Mike Matijevic from Steelheart,Andrè Matos (ex Angra and Shaman),Tobias Sammet (Edguy,Avantasia),James Labrie (Dream Theater,listen all the discography),Tommy Karevik (Seventh Wonder),Michele Luppi (Vision Divine) and others ;)

  • JJ has NOT lost one note of awesomeness after all these years! He's terrific.

  • EXACTLY! JJ Rules!

  • 80's music-Rock On! I can't stand most of my daughter's music and my parents couldn't stand most of mine and so it goes...!

  • Which lead singer is this?

  • Jimi Jamison

  • the best voice in rock n roll , what a tone of voice! my lord!

  • Survivor! Old youthrmembers!

  • which lead sing is this?

  • @CartoonBrothers2

    Jami Jamison

  • He has an amazing voice. Very sexy.

    So masculine. Dont hear that much

    on the radio anymore

  • Killer song - and another reason why the 80s was the greatest decade of Rock n Roll. Music should ALWAYS be uplifting and have a positive message. The mainstream has sucked since 1992. Sorry kids , you missed the best decade of music EVER. If you love REAL music come see retrospectrecordsDOTcom

  • SPAM SPAM SPAM!

    but i agree todays music is kaka, what the media has portrayed is kaka too. All these people talkin bout money sex women drinking and stuuuuff D :

    I like aerosmith O>o

  • totally agree. Music back then had something that music, well since 1992, don't have, heart and soul. Music today is just bland, not exciting and the image just sucks.

  • @RetrospectRecords world's musical situation nicely summarized. how can people not be moved by a song like this. How come radio doesn't play it!?

  • Fun music to listen to.Love it !!

    Music nowadays is so boring

  • Great song!

  • Beautiful song! You guys are awesomes!

  • cant hold back, the Search is Over, and High on you are their best hits too me. This song great too.

  • i love high on you too, are you in to christian music, i like my father house, by audio adrealin, sorry i cant spell

  • MUSICA MUSICA  LINDO SEM COMETARIO

  • Destiny is callin everyday....

  • Successes? They had great songs (still do). But they should've been more famous. :\ The only ones people know are the ones from Rocky. And those aren't as good as their other songs!

  • I agree . And most that only like eott call them a one hit band . But thats not true

  • love the energy of this! Thank you

  • they're a fine size, as far as i know

    they're not underrated nor overrated

  • Magic magic Hard-AOR!"

  • Love u Jimi <3 ur an inspiration to us all

  • didn't know you guys are so cool. specially their few songs are so great and in my opinion eyes of the tiger is one of the all time hit song. viva survivor.

  • Unbelievable- better everytime I hear it...

  • this song is underrated!

  • So underrated

  • I Never get tired of hearing them..and never TiRE of looking at Jimi..what a voice..always feel good music that you can sing along with..love them

  • AOR AOR AOR AOR AOR AOR

  • The singer in Survivor group, definitely, he is one of the best great voices of the history, like Nickelback singer Chad Kroeger today.

  • which singer? Jimi Jamison?

  • temazo impresionante,una pena que ya no se aga musica asi

  • Así es, la música de hoy en día parece que ha muerto y se ha vuelto monótona.

  • You see him maybe 3 times:)

  • listen :

    all survivor cd will re-realesed

    in july in japan (as mini-lp cardsleeves) cd looks like

    a mini-lp . could have bonus tracks

    maybe.

  • Why this song wasnt a hit is a riddle to me.

  • That's a good question. Why Survivor is not around making concerts with a lot of the Poisons now a days I don't know. I know this you want to succeed you you stick together and survivor was bits and pieces making great music... They need to come together for you to see them again... Diversity fuels redemption. Unity =success ..They were great .They still are.. IT's ,their choice to come forward and fight or give up. ....they were taken apart, but that is society. They have the talent. Choice.

  • I saw Survivor live like a month ago, they have a new singer and he sounds really good. Just saw Jimi on Saturday playing with other people. He has a really great new solo album, he only played the popular Survivor stuff though. Love the Survior but he can also make great music on his own you should check it out :)

  • Jimi's a legend. I grew up listening to survivors music

  • That´s right, Marc And Stephan wasn´t on the album:) But U can see Stephan in this video:) But Marc isn´t in it, The drummer was the sutdio musician Kyle  Woodring:)

  • where is Stephan at?? i didn't see him.

  • Best band ever.

    Prob one the best songs they ever did, atleast to my liking.

    Got all there albums and can't poss describe how much I love this music and band.

    I sincerley wish it was the 1980's now, cos I feel close to tears some times seeing the bands around now..

  • I agree with U:)) Just picked out the music to this song on my guitar,,how wonderful.. this song is problably one of the best songs in the world..ever..

    //Andy

  • now I remember,, the drummer is Kyle Woodring :D

  • I can see Frankie Sullivan,Stephan Ellis, Jim Peterik and Jimi Jameson..but who´s the drummer??

  • as far as I know, Stephan Ellis and Marc Droubay had left the band by the time this album was released.

  • coronaoverhere whoever you are.

    you got the video all wrong it's not kinda gay and to me they sining together and that what all  singers do is sing together

  • One of the best Survivor songs,pure rock and roll...

  • I just posted this on facebook proudly.

  • Bass Player Sighting - 2:00

  • I love the song, but it is kinda GAY between him and the guitar player - Just seems like he is singing to HIM... You know? - I know he isn't gay, so save yer comments...lol- And don't you think the guitar player is hogging the camera and trying a bit too hard?

  • impresionante, menudo temazo joder....ya no hay música así.

  • Look, I did lyrics.

  • great tune, but never showed the bass player.

  • i think the bass player is at 1:21

  • cojonudosssss

  • what year was this? I'm guessing '87?

  • The song is from the "too hot to sleep album" wich were released in 1988

  • gotta love classic rock..

  • I've just started to like the band ^^ this song is soo awsome

  • In those shitty times we live in..songs like that gives a note of hope inside your heart..Thank you Survivor...Awesome song...Desparate dreams was also another awesome song from this album!!!

  • my favorite from the "too hot" album!!!

  • love this song!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Jimi is the greatest singer in the history of history.

  • @blackwell5150

    Unfortunately only Brazil likes Brazil !!! Sorry hunni, not the people but Brazil !! Everyone who knows about the death squads hate Brazil and don`t know why Jimi played there!! I really have conflict with that...If he ever plays there again, for those who know..he will wipe out any good he may have done and be known for what lives he may have cost!! xx

  • @Leather66 Brazil is not just Rio de Janeiro! Look at this country, it's a hugh coutry huh? If i think USA is just Texas and the south, i'll hate USA, if my poor mentality believes USA is KKK or racism only.

    I'm from the south of Brazil, Porto Alegre, and here we don't have samba or death squads.

    Here, too many people loves Survivor and the 80's hard rock. We have places to enjoy the better page of rock history, the 80's.

    Sorry for my poor english.

  • The best voice in the world.

  • I miss these guys.

    Haven't heard this song in ages. Glad I found it.

  • Search 'Survivor- Hungry Years' a song from the Greatest Hits when David Bickler returned. An overlooked Great Song with Great race vid of Kidzilla

  • que voz tan genial por favor! capo!

  • thanks...here in brazil only a few people like survivor...it's a shame.

  • Mad props to RAFAELLPRO... I agree... Survivor rocks... I havent heard this song in it's entirety in 18+ years... What memories... Thanks again...

  • Great rockin' video- feel good music..and no one looks better or has a voice like him..

  • Thank U

  • This is the greatest band of all time. Even God listens to Survivor. After all in the final battle with Satan, what song do you think He will listen to, to get pumped up? Eye of the Tiger....

  • Ha ha ha ha I AGREE su much with you!!! And after God finish with Satan, HE will listen Sweetest Victory!!!!

  • Neben "Desperate Dreams" und "I see you in everyone" der beste Song von SURVIVOR.

  • Survivor IS the greatest Band in Rock-History! No doubt about that. My absolute favorites of all times.

  • Jimi Jamison and Mark Free are one of my favourite singers in my book. And Robin Beck owns the female scene.

  • Awesome video.Survivor is one of the best and most underrated bands ever.This melody lift your spirit up to the sky.Positivie feelings grow in me every time i listen to this song. THANK YOU VERY MUCH SURVIVOR!!! JIMMY AND JIM....GET BACK IN THE BAND....NOW!!!!!

  • my brother post this videoo and we are from brazil ! ahah shame that some americans had never listened a great song like that =/ survivor one of the best bands ever!!

  • How could I have missed this one back in the 80's....never heard this song by Survivor until listening to their best of album recently...cool song

  • Positive Energy overflowing .Thank you Survivor for putting your heart on these songs.They will live forever to inspire and make our life brighter.Life is a celebration,don't let anyone nake it a comedy or a misery.

  • your voice is amazonig

  • This is Jimi singing in some post-85 live version but when the album version in 83 it was with Bickler. Anyway I thought the single from that album was Jackie Don't Go, surprised there's no video for that one...

  • No, Bickler sang "Love Has Got Me" (Survivor, 1979), "Nothing Can Shake Me From Your Love" (Survivor, 1979), "Love Is On My Side" (Premonition, 1981), "Feels Like Love" (Eye Of The Tiger, 1982), and "I Never Stopped Loving You" (Caught In The Game, 1983). "How Much Love" (When Seconds Count, 1986), "Is This Love" (When Seconds Count, 1986), and "Didn't Know It Was Love" (Too Hot To Sleep, 1988) were all sung by Jamison.

  • I love this song... ^_^

  • survivor and journey....THE KING of AOR music.

  • never heard in my life a voice like that.. Jimi's Great!!!

    keep on listen to AOR ;)
