  • live?

  • great song, too bad it's lip sunk

  • Comment removed

  • sad song but beautiful... touching & shooting ,,,, great

  • I ABSLOUTELY LOVE THIS SONG, ITS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!

  • This is playback but the artists of this calibre would have produced even more touching sound. What a priceless assets they have been but unfortunately not so well known in their own country as they have always supposed to be.

    BTW why the 7 losers bothered to even type and listen to this and then click dislike button, better stay on satan worshipper (gaga) and beiber pages which actually suits their mentality. Def Leppard fans should check their live performance in the ROUND... awesome

  • I'M A LEPPARD FAN, I LOVE THEM =) BUT I AGREE THAT THIS IS PLAYBACK =) LOL!!

  • @AngelDrums they played the song live with a sequence... I know because II was there and there was no one playing the acoustic guitar at the start.... but they put the cd version over this video I think it was because Joe was a bit out of tune

  • Love this song.......

    Def Leppard you ROCK!!!

  • Another song that reflect what i am going thru right now. love of my life just left me. fk its painful

  • Yeah, this is either a dub over or for a promotion. Leppard doesn't lypsinc for NO reason. I mean check other 2002 live footage of this song even from 2003 and 2005, you can tell Joe actually sings and the band actually plays. I don't know what this was for , but definately NOT live singing.....

  • playback!!

  • Its hard to believe the hard rockers who gave us those first 3 kickass albums now plays this crap lol. Pathetic.

  • i love this song,, i love it love it <3

  • I saw this live on the X tour in FL. Joe dedicated it to the American and British Troops fighting for our FREEDOM to attend concerts. Super Classy Joe. God Bless Def Leppard. THEY RULE!!!!

  • def lip-singn or playback, but who cares. awesome song

  • i met joe on saturday lovely guy, got photos with him too, on my facebook Rob Toma, your see it straigh away black and white one.....was amazing meeting him...

  • Still Awesome!

  • Ahhh, Beautiful Stuff Joe !!! You'ze guyz have NO idea how much you make our lives better....Long Live the Leps !! Saw ya in the early 80's backin up Blackfoot in San Diego.....Rocked then.....and today !!

  • I've heard Def Leppard live enough times to know this is not live. Watch Rick on the drums @ 1:06, the beats don't match the music. Love them though, I saw them in Charlotte NC on Dec. 20 1987 on my 18ty birthday on their Hysteria tour. Best birthday ever!

  • If you can play as good live as good as in the studio you are one hell of a band and DEF LEPPARD fits the bill

  • Iam a Lep's fanatic, but this is not a live, for sure! Karaoke yes, but definetely not live!!

  • I dont think it matters if its live or not. This is Def Leppard. The feelings that come to the surface are real.

  • What a beautiful song with so much meaning song by one of the SEXIEST lead singers, gogeous Joe Elliot. You can not stop the aging clock but Def Leppard get sexier and sultrier wtih age. Just like a good Italian wine. Don't knock them because they are still very much in demand for a new tour in 2011 as well as a new CD. KEEP ROCKING IT IN 2011.

  • this sounds exactly like the studio version... is it live? joe often sings out of tune slightly live...

  • VIVIAN CAMPBELL YOU ARE SUCH A SELL OUT PUSSY !!

  • definately a really bad live overdub

  • Nice try making this look like a live performance...

    Either way, Look at my man playing live on an acoustic kit!! Fuck Lars Ulrich!

    and why's vivan dressed like the Edge?

  • I think the version off lionel richie is much better..

  • fuckin playback

  • That song was one of Def Leppard's best since "Have you ever Needed Someone So Bad" Why didn't "Long Long way to Go" appear on their Definitive Collection?

  • @jcp1977 yeah, "have you ever needed someone so bad" is their best song ever!

  • WOW, what a song... gotta love Def Leppard, they were Always GREAT!

  • This is one of the songs that made me fall in love with Joe's voice. And I love the way he rocks back and forth with his arms extended. His movements on stage are always so beautiful <3

  • Still luv em' Playback or not!

  • Still luv em' playback or not. They are an awesome band!

  • yep fake... the live version of this was so horrible... (saw them in Sacramento) used to be my favorite band.. such fucking sell outs. fuck em

  • pta que agan playback en uno de esos programuchos de tv pero en un concierto coma mucha mierda q viva deff pro no esto no aguanta

  • Still one of the best bands ever, after all these years!!! Go Def Leppard

  • Prefiero que desafinen todas las notas antes de que hagan playback...

  • Def Leppard on playback... dude, I cant believe this ...

  • One word- DUBBED. Sad...I am abig fan, but sooner or later your voice goes. These guys have given us some of the best rock EVER. Don't dub though...grow old gracefully. Everyone has a limit, and god knows you guys have played thousands of supreme gigs....but please don't dub.

  • I LOVE IT!!

  • beautiful song..

  • Well at least the didnt try to hide the studio voice overs. Rick Allen don't have a mic.

  • amazing band... (why are they waving bananas?)

  • I LOVE THEM!!

  • this sounds just like a Black Sabbath song! kidding  kidding lol... come on guys wheres the old Rock of Ages Def Leppard??

  • is it realy live? :P the song sounds like the studio version. but its an awesome song

  • so good, how can som1 write such deep and meaningfull lyrics. No one can like Joe Elliot

  • mmm exactly like the studio version.. the voice says it all

  • this song is simply amazing, it has inspired me a hell of a lot

  • this song is beautiful xD

  • Yes. This is definitely a studio recording. It was probably the television show's regulations and doing. Lots of TV shows don't let bands play live because it's just easier to do and they are always guaranteed a good sound.

  • This sounds too much like the studio recording. It sounds like someone dubbed the studio recording over the live video and added a little bit of crowd noise.

  • @edvhou812: I don't know either way but to def leppard's credit - joe always sounds as good or sometimes better live

  • Could be true, but the tell-tale signs is the backing vocals. The backing vocals almost never sound the same when it comes to Def Leppard. I relisted to this clip after posting my original comment, and this has a studio overdub. I'm sure a fan is that one that did the editing, so it is not a shot at the band.

  • yea i re-listened to it also u can tell at the end how the sound of the bass drum is much sharper than the dull thud of studeo

  • def leppard has always said they never used backing vocals or anything on tape its prolly the video ive seen this on other vids to

  • nice...

  • linagalati: Don't worry, it happens. And yes, Rick is a lifelong beauty. Rock on!

  • esta cancion se la dedico a mi hermano que estara en el cielo para el y pronto nos veremos te quiero juan

  • they arent playing eather. that or the video is slow. the guitarist should have been playing a G but he held a d

  • Goodness! Rick Savage is still gorgeous. He is the man!

  • Sorry i meant to give you a thumb up for that!!!! i hit the wrong one......... he is the most gorgeous thing on earth :)

  • Meow! Joe Elliott looks super HOT! Hmmm...

  • @frogge12 What are ya talkin' about? He looks old lesbian in this video.

  • i thought it sounded studio

  • Awesome Song

  • this is not live. it sounds exactly like the studio

  • @TheRaeBeans andVivian Campbell's Gibson Les Paul sounds like a flamenco guitar, strange, isn't it?

    This is playback.

  • @TheRaeBeans Yeah I think this is the music video

  • @TheRaeBeans

    DEFinately!

    But who cares.... they're gorrrgussss! <3

  • Comment removed

  • @TheRaeBeans because it's edited... i guess... yeah im sure it sounds like the studio version but im sure of one thing.. def leppard NEVER!! would make playback... NEVER!!!!!!!!

  • @TheRaeBeans def leppard are just that good =]

  • great song, I have never heard it before though? Is this one of their originals? Very beautiful song.

  • awesome man!

  • Def Leppard Rocks!!!!!!!!

  • Great song. I have the pleasure to see the guys in Newcastle (Australia) in Nov 2008. Awesome!!!

  • beautiful song...LOVE DEF LEPPARD! =)

  • this song was written by wayne hector and steve robinson, 2 of the most prolific UK songwriters who have written for many artists.

  • thnx for the info =)

  • i love this song

  • this song is just unbelievable...

  • the lipsync is ofc added for the film afterwards

  • damn! i guess this was either lipsynced or dubbed! i've compared it with the album and they sound exactly 100% the same! were'nt they grew old after 20 years or wouldnt the sounds changed??? really disappointed as they were one of my fav bands...

  • reedz......forget that stuff, go see them live, you won't be disappointed. I haven't been since 1982 ;o)

  • If this is from a DVD it was probably over dubbed. Which is dumb in my opinion but thats how its done sometimes.

  • It's without a doubt dubbed over because at the end there you can tell that it changes to Joe actually singing!

  • It almost sounds lypsinced it's so good.. I guess it's live....? Sounds too good...  Way too good like they are playing the cd while they immitate playing and singing it...

  • I'm a defleppard fernatic.when it comes to this song.this song is so great

  • such a beautiful and sad song...DEF LEPPARD RULES!

  • awesome!

  • DEF LEPPARD 4LIFE !

  • Hey folk...this is a CONCERT VIDEO! It starts out live, then fades into the commercial version the finishes out live. Joe is NOT lipsynching. I've seen them in concert, they sound amazing, ALWAYS! I can't wait to see them again in July!

  • I have been a fan of def leppard for at least 29 years.they released some great music over the years.Keep rocking defleppard.we love you

  • One thing I've always loved about these guys is they have such great vocals! People have acused them in the past of dubbing harmonies during their concerts, but they say they practice a LOT to make that harmonious sound. They are awesome!

  • I picked up a DVD...Def Leppard and it was an interview with both Joe and Phil mostly together in their studio showing tracks of past music done prior to becoming a CD...The DVD proved that YES they did actaully sing everything as a band...Their pitch was incredible and I was blown away when Joe actually removed the music and his voice and only played the

  • Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

  • Are you a fan of their older music?

    I went to their first Pyromania show...

  • Oh Yes! My favoriate album is Hysteria.

  • Hysteria was Steve Clark's last album..

    I like the sound they have now but occasionally still enjoy listening to their older heavier sound (High & Dry and Phyromania)...

    Are you into 80's hair band music?

  • Yes, very much so. I suppose it's because I was a teenager at the time. I still like listening to 80's music.

  • Joe's got a great singing voice

  • That's why he's the singer of one of the best bands in the world... I think they made that choice many years ago when they formed.

  • he is miming idiot!

  • joe its just a god... and rick allen too

  • No it's not live, it's pretty obvious.

  • joe is not lip synching .if you ever go to a def lep concert he's just as good live as he is recorded unless hes been on a long tour and his voice starts gettin worn out

  • Okay honestly I ADORE Def Leppard but this is without a doubt lip synched. But Joe was probably having throat problems!! It is still uber hard to lip lync so he is very talented to make it look so realistic!! It is identical to the track on the CD. LOVE YOU JOE!! See you July 4th in Toronto!! Rock on!!

  • just a great song ...Wish they played this and Promises on tour!

  • you're right... i wish they play more of their new songs on upcoming tour....

  • you can fade out in a real show, if they have a good sound engineer he could pull the volumes down on the channels to give it a fade effect.

  • I am SOOOOO stoked! Just got VIP tickets to see "em in Indy!

    I love Joe, he's so yummy!

  • I cant wait to see DL with Poison. Hell yeah! This is a beautiful song.

  • Lip Sync...no it's called a video. Every band puts the alobum version over the video. I seen them on this tour, they do sound great live still, but not album great.

  • It's not lipsynching, it's live, but the vid has the album version played over it!

  • yes, this is playback. But DF is still very good live band :)

  • playback!?

  • always been a def lep fan..its obvious that joe is lip syncing this though, kinda upsetting.

  • why...he hates lip synching but has a gorgous voice..this was proly when his throat was giving him probs because of smoking

  • Been a Leppard fan all my life,, this is a GREAT song behind all the others they made. THEY ROCK period......Case closed....

  • FYI, whoever posted the video dubbed in music, Def Leppard doesn't lipsync in concert!!!!

  • Sorry i bought the acdc new cd and is not good as the old ones, buy the new cd of def leppard it really rocks, this song of this video is from X album 2002 where they were doing different music and even that album rocks.

  • I love this song

    Def Leppard 4 EVER!!!!!!

  • Joe has been screaming for more than 30 years. We can't expect him to sound the way he used to. They are all older and have made some changes in their music. I think this is great. I love the old stuff, but will live with the new. Def Leppard forever!

  • i really love this song!- safe to say, i think i'm addicted!!!!

  • If you dont think they rocked even at this love song...listen to Lionel Richies version. He is a great artist and is re-recording Lep stuff...They are the Kings!!! This is a die hard, rock Ballad!! Hands down!!!

  • I love this song...shame they mimed it though.

  • He still rocks. This must be a recent song.

  • dooes anyone no y they wrote this song?

  • It was written by Steve Robson

  • Rick Allen Is AWESOME!!! I Love him ALMOST as much as Sav. He is No. 4 on my obsession list. lol

  • i like itt

  • Rick Allen is an inspiration to me as well!

  • Flippin amazing song, but he"s definately lipsynching! Rick Allan is a true inspiration to drummers like myself

  • Huge Fan, but what's with the lip-synching?

  • I'll tell you what's up with the lip synching. They used so many studio tricks over the years with vocals and guitar layering that they couldn't reproduce it live in concert. Plus, Joe's voice is starting to sound like Golem's from Lord of the Rings.

  • I have been a fan for 28 years! Ever since I met Rick in a Salt lake City Bar with his brother Derek.

  • I've been a fan 28 years! Ever since I met Rick in a Salt Lake City bar with his brother Derek.

  • To make the claim of the hugest fan....You have to qualify....I might have yall beat...25 yrs of Leppard in my life. I live by it, think with it the back of my mind, and feel it in my soul....Nothing beats these boys.....ROCK ON.....No MATTER WHAT.....

    JCTTX

  • Ok, 20 + years here. Have seen them 24 times & plan on more in 2009 when they tour again. I average 4 shows per tour. This year I finally met 2 of them. I met, got autographs from & pics with Phil & Viv. Nice guys, very patient with fans. So I am truely a "Lepphead".

  • uh-huh... how bout 29 yrs. JC???? lol

  • aww...this is a sweet but sad song...:(

  • Yes, it sure is sweet but sad. I'm just in one "those " kinda moods tonight. Someone special has just been on my mind tonight for some reason, and this song doesn't help any! Dang it! Oh well. That's life!

  • yea dude wen my wife left in 02 i instently heard this song and started cryin

  • Dude Gath! I have been away for 1 week and you send me this vid. Like Interveningangel says. Sad! Too sad right now! Thanks for the greet. lol

  • great song

  • Nice song [:-}

  • def leppard Rulz. wow. i missed so much being hitched to a chick who not know def. pity.

  • I love this song. This is a wonderful video, thank you for sharing. I'm so glad to see everyone looking so healthy. Can't get enough close-ups of Rick Allen!

  • WOW! this song is so beautiful and sad.

    Thank you for posting it.

    Joe has such a nice voice!

    GREAT BAND! ONE OF THE GREATEST!

    Kind Regards

    ~~!(^_^)!~~

  • This is a beautiful song. I agree, this is the studio version. Not sure why, but I'm sure they had their reasons. However,

    def Leppard sounds wonderful live and would NEVER have to lipsynch any song...I've loved them for over 25 years, and seen them in concert 62 times!!!

  • I have listened to this song every day since 2002 when it first came out. I am the HUGEST DEF LEPPARD FAN in the world and I KNOW AS A VOCALIST, it kills me to say this, but they are lipsynching on this one. God why!!??? They have so much talent! Maybe Joe had Larynjitis like in the 80's and couldn't do it witout the back up track but that breaks my heart because I've seen them live 16 times and I know how they sound live, and it's layered!!! Listen to the end!!!

  • It may just be "studio version" music put to an actual concert video, but it's done extremely well....WHOEVER did it. I first thought, oh somebody did the camera work themselves, BUT there are like 5 or more camera angles here, and the camera work is of professional quality, as is the camera, and audio mixing.

    I'm curious now as to WHO did all this camera work, mixing, and audio, cuz it's first class! BRAVO!

  • thank you

  • thank you

  • what bass is sav using exactly anyone know?

  • I'd say Fender....but that's as far as i can go :P lol

  • one of the most beautiful tunes...critics will say they are not a hard rock band anymore...who cares? def leppard sounds super in any genre they play (listen to slang for example)
