LOL has to laugh at the mix up of John Waite and Tom Waite who I know from San Francisco. The two men are nothing alike each other trust me!
Ricky Phillips knew Johnathan Cain and Waites from being in the Babys together, Johnathan knew Niel from Journey, I never asked how Deen got with them or if I did, I lost what they said in the last 20years.
Do you remember HOW a concert SMELLS? Pot, Beer, Fog Machines...Maybe you was in a fog? ANYWAY, That is the ONLY way to truly hear this song, or Bad English as a whole. Been there, done that. Imagine That Smell with your guts getting shuck out by the bass line...Time for the wayback machine
I love everything about this video: Jonathan Kain using a keytar, Neal Schon's guitar solo in the rain, John Waite's white leather...oh yeah and the hot chick!
They can not come back since 3 of the members are Jonathan Cain, Neal Schon and Dean Castronovo "JOURNEY"
This was the first time that Steve Perry left and Neal and Jonathan form Bad English and they replace Steve with Tom Waite and added Dean to replace Steve Smith, they left out Ross Valory out and replaced with this basist of this Australian band that the lead singer was together with this girl that was in all their videos her name is Tawny Catane, remember?
abras- Bad English was a JOHN Waite Jon Cain project. The bassist was not David Coverdale, who is English, but Ricky Phillips who played with Waite/Cain in The Babys. Neal almost didn't join the band because he was in New York at the time working on a solo project. Not sure about Deen. I think Neal knew him from Frisco.
Song was wrote after someone in the band read "Queen of the Damned", part of the series that Anne Rice wrote that started with "interview with the vampire". If you read those books, you would get it.
because if you listen carefully to the lyrics this song is about reincarnation and finding a Love you knew in a previous Lifetime. In the video, the previous lifetime was a long time ago, and with a castle. John Waite (the Lead singer) has written stuff along these lines a few times now. he is a great writer.
I think your aware with Arnel Pineda videos with Zoo band.They sing some Bad English tune.
I am here in the Philippines and thinking if Neal with come up with a set list consisting either two cover songs of Bad English and I think Arnel can sing it coz he likes Bad English.

gogon2 is shit, nobody can say things like that about Arnel Pineda. Who the hell are you? Do you even know him asshole, motherfucker, bullshit, spermcell, faggot, idiot, fatherfucker, butthole, buttfucker, shiteater, godhater, mad killer, murderer, rapist, rat smelling faggot! FUCK YOU TO DEATH!! PUTANG INA KANG GAGO KANG ULOL KA!!!!!!! TRANSLATE THIS YOU SHITTTTTT! hehe... peace out,
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
are you fuckin kidding me, you are the dumbest cunt i have ever heard talk about Arnel Pineda in my whole fuckin life, the dude can't sing anything like Steve Perry and everyone knows thats true, so take a fuckin chill cocksucker
Who says Arnel is trying to replace SP or anyone else? He is what he is, a talented individual. He was ask to be Journey's lead singer. Steve would not come back, so, Arnel was the best choice.What about the other two guys that sang lead after SP, are they shit also, or , did they all just need a job?Steve could care less, he is just counting his money and living comfortably. I agree, he was great, but, it was his choice, not Arnel's or any of the other Journey members. Get over it.
Excellent video and track. I'm a huge Journey and John Waite fan. I've never seen them together nor have I ever heard of John's earlier work with Bad English.
Wow, excellent sound and performance. I'll see John tomorrow performing at the free Friday night concerts at the Santa Cruz Beach and Boardwalk. John will rock the house and hopefully perform all of hits hits of the past Baby's and Bad English era including this fine tune !!
When I saw him a few years ago, he played just about every known song on that album except for this one, which I reallly wanted to hear. I hope you have better luck.
I think Neal and Jonathan were the only two members of Journey in the band. Jonathan used to be in a band with John, and I'm guessing Jonathan introduced them.
Delicious! I had forgotten about the video's kind of creepy ending but only just. What is the song about? No website I've checked really says? Is it about soul mates like I have always thought? Maybe it is since they "met" again one guess centuries later.
believe he's a Vampire in the Song - listen to Lyric. say's, " you cross your heart and cross the bedroom floor" and "a thousand lifetimes long ago, we made a promise we would not let go" "and so i come for you tonight"
pretty much the Vladmir thing for sure! this chick in this vid gives me a huge boner Lol
Great trip down memory lane. I still love that song after all these years. And my gawd is the girl in the video HOT! *melts into a puddle* Wonder who she was and what became of her. I'll bet she aged well. ;o)

And I thought I was the only one with a song called "Forget Me Not" And I rememeber this song now, I loved it, & I'm huge fan of Neal Schon! Great Song! Come on over & check out my original instrumental ballad with the same title. It's a great song, completely different, but similiar feeling when I wrote it!
I found it.....i remenber hearing this great song in a portuguese radio station call COMERCIAl and the name of the program was ROCK FM...so this type of music we name it as Rock FM....the girl his fantastic...
The first Bad English release, and the most serious release. Forget Me Not is an intense song. John Waite should be an inductee into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame...John Rocks Forever...
I like your little story streetridaz. What were the likes of Steve Perry and Neal Schon like in person? They always come across as very nice people. I cant beleive you used to know them. Good work. I love journey and bad english!
They were great people. Very nice. They were always partying with my parents though. lol I was just a kid. I remember Steve would always tell stories about his childhood though. lol
the dude on the keyboard jonathan kane married my childhood babysitter. Elizibeth. I stumbled across this video. I have the original uncut copy that he showed my family before they released it. Lol wow seems so long ago. I haven't spoke with them for years. like 15 years or more. He also played keyboard and piano for journy who were regulars at my house in sonoma/marin county. lol i'm having flash backs. wild parties with my dad boy.
As much as the fans may want for Steve Perry to rejoin Neal Schon and Jon Cain--or for John Waite to work with them again as well--it's important to remember that's a decision that fans simply can't make. We don't know and really have no right to no why none of them are on speaking terms. You don't always want to get back together with someone who hurt you. Waite and Perry were both burned--considering the circumstances I wouldn't want to work with Frig and Fro again either.
"Was not a good one" is an understatement daldog. You and I will never understand the personal suffering attached to that split. As for Bad English maybe you should put two and two together. Anyway, at the end of the day we are all entitled to our own opinions.
The splits John had with the Babys and with Bad English were Johns creative destruction. John has to be in control. Jonathan Cain took him a song that he had written and John turned it down and said he didn't think it was very good. Jonathan took it to Steve Perry, Journey recorded it and it's their biggest song ever. The song was "Open Arms". He should have been so much bigger of a star but he made the solo records on his own terms and you have to respect that.
Thanks for the info. Interesting. He turned down Jon Cain's song? Then sung Dissing You and When I See Your Piles. The guy is an absolute cockhead. Jon Cain has more talent than Waite could ever dream of.
Funny, while with Journey, only Steve Perry liked "Open Arms" and helped Cain co-write some more to improve it. Also, the rest of the band including Neal hated the song.
Why does it seem like there is a not so hidden;hidden message in this song? What really happened between Schon,Perry and Cain? his my first time ever hearing this song, I can feel so much anger and darkness.
Annpea- The song was inspired by, according to a blurb in Rolling Stone all those years ago, someone in the band reading "queen of the damned" by Ann Rice.
Man, love this song and video - brings me back to the good old days when you could throw a party and put MTV on and it was all music videos...... miss the 80's music like this!
These guys should tour again. Journey in need of a lead singer again, although the drummer does a dynamite Perry, and Waite always going solo. These guys were good and this song kicks ass.
The drummer in Bad English is Deen Castronova and he is now in Journey and has been for awhile.The bass player is Ricky Phillips,formerly of The Babys and now in Styx.
awesome band.. neal schon is the greatest guitarist of all time! he was amazing in journey he was amazing in santana and he was amazing in bad english. hes just amazing!!
Guitarist looks like this one of Hardline;-) Good melodic song.

Annpea- The song was inspired by, according to a blurb in Rolling Stone all those years ago, someone in the band reading "queen of the damned" by Ann Rice.

I think it was out in the 90's. 90 maybe. It was on mtv alot. The clothes and hair give it away. 1/2 of Journey.

These guys should tour again. Journey in need of a lead singer again, although the drummer does a dynamite Perry, and Waite always going solo. These guys were good and this song kicks ass.
