  • Guitarist looks like this one of Hardline;-) Good melodic song.

  • Sounds like it would have fit perfectly on the soundtrack for 'The Lost Boys'.

    Yes, I mean that as a compliment.

    LOL!

  • at about 2:13 cain and waite bang heads

  • LOL nice

  • i wanna know who played that killer "clock" part......??

  • 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.

  • this is when they all were sooo badd ass in my opinion. killer song. killer band. killer attitude here.

  • i just fell so in love today....

  • bad haircut

  • this song is about a vampire...

  • rumour has it that they wrote it after reading Vampire Lestat, least what I was told.

  • I don't know what's more eye catching; that chick, or Johnathan Cain's keytar.

  • Neal Schon's looks so fricking HOT in this video all deck out in tight leather pants rocking out on his guitar

  • 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

  • Well said Tomz. Much of the 80's is still a blurr, but what a wonderful blurr it was. I would'nt change a thing!

  • John Waite, the babies, Neal Schon, Johnathan Cain, whoever, whatever you call it, THEY ROCK ASS!!!!!

  • DEAN CAS. IA C L O W N

  • 1.10. I can see a castle. great song, but I am thinking, JW is funny.

    Dont' forget THE BABYS!

  • 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!

  • 3 of the 5 Journey members are on here! COOL!

  • These guys are super! Wish they would come back.

  • 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.

  • Sorry Pal it's John Waite.

    Tom Waite is a different guy.

  • Very creepy but still wonderful song. I just can't get enough of it.

  • Bad English were awesome! They should've been massive! ^_-

  • I think this is an incredibly sexy song.... I forgot how much I loved it!

  • Ill second that...this song is real sexy, makes me wanna go out on the town.

  • I've always liked this song, but it's sorta the "Stalker's Anthem," I think...:|

  • 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.

  • Cool! Wondering what was behind it. Thanks!

  • IMO the Stalker's Anthem is Queensryche's Gonna Get Close to You... though this does come a close second

  • Yeah, I agree with you. QR's song really creeps me out, and I love their music. I love Bad English too.

  • 1.09... Why I can see a castle in this vid?

  • 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.

  • 5 Stars..that's only I can say

  • Neal Schon Rocks...

  • AOR Forever!!!!!!

  • Very Good... Rock 80' is great

  • road house................

  • ohhhhhhhhhhhh

  • too bad you tree-hugging worms........

  • "retarded".......Bwaaaaaaahaaa­aaaaaaaaaaa That is fucking hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Supreme classic

  • omg! one of the best songs ever!

  • The lead guitarist looks like the bad guy from RoadHouse!

  • Neal Schon - from Journey

  • Super AOR band, fantastic!!!!!

  • Don't forget THE BABYS Mr JW! and all you did!!

    bahhhhhhh!!

    Great song!

  • The chick in this video is HOT!!!!!!! Especially at 2:02

  • 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.

  • Arnel Pineda is shit, nobody will replace Steve Perry and the early 80's lineup of Journey and nobody can replace Bad English either at that

  • ok! suck your self. LOSER!

  • 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.

  • It has several things every hair metal video should have.

    1. Hot girl

    2. Big hair

    3. Cheesy outfits

  • so true

  • These guys sure can PLAY!

    I wonder if the lead singers in such rock videos ask the directors 'er, can you, like, get me to stick my tongue down some hot chick's throat?'

    Nice job if you can get it!

  • Journey has ANOTHER lead singer? Oh man... LOL

  • "Ladies and Gentlemen, the Dream we all Dream of" Lol @ 2:18 OMG! she's lovely. who is the Video Girl in this. parts of me are applauding! ha-ha

    oh yeah, band is great too. Love John Waite, Deen, and of course, Mr. Schon.

  • 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.

  • the drummer is journey's current drummer Dean Castronovo

  • How many members of Journey were in this band... I recognize Neal on the guitar of course and I think Jonathan on keyboards..

  • 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.

  • I read that Deen Castronovo, the drumer,was in Bad English also.

  • Yeah, Deen drummed for Bad English.

  • 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

  • I 've always thought the same thing.

  • She's prolly, like, 50 or something now. ho ho

  • Do you really think it is an age thing?

  • prolly? what does that mean?

  • An abbreviated version of "probably".

  • i like this song

  • This the ultimate stalking song.. a sound track to use in committing your final act of revenge.. I like the song but kinda creepy

  • This is a song about a vampire lover!

  • good song.but dam dat babe is 1 hot piece of ass.lol

  • The chick in the video looks like a hot Xena!

  • una  canción de alucine........

  • 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)

  • That was unbelievably horrendous!

  • dr. you need to take your chill pill

  • You need to take a pill that gives u decent taste in music.

  • I didn't even say I like it. But I do.

  • 80s rocks

  • melodie che non si può non conoscere...

  • 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!

    Thanks,

    Troy Clark

  • lol troy.your is better

  • Thanks dip! Your the man bro!

  • not hard , not heavy , not trash ...what ever metal....

    just a song ..and a cool one ROCK FM...the girl is fantastic

  • not hair metal, but they try to use all of their video tricks. schon can play guitar, but this sounds just like journey w/ a different singer.

  • GREAT FUCKING EIGHTYS SONG!

  • Comment removed

  • 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...

  • Neil Schon one of my favorites guitar players

  • AOR 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.

  • what other band did john and john wait play in???

  • The Babys

  • I knew that thanx tho

  • awasome song...

    luv it

  • this is a rocking 1

  • This song totally Rocks. its a shame they werent bigger over here. AOR RULES!!!!!

  • the girl in vid hasd fukin awesome hair ....

  • 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.

  • Hot chick in this cheesy 80's vid-Always liked the song though...

  • Wasn't chesy at the time. hard to believe it has been 20 years now.

  • this band had potential but it only takes one difficult person to ruin it.

  • Love this song and love the vid! Love that it tells a tale. Awesome

  • This was a good ffreeking band!!!!!

  • Too bad it didn't last.

  • Neal Schon plays some hot guitar on this track!

  • PRETTY

  • John Waite and the Baby's split was not a good one. What about the split and what happened with Bad English?

  • "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.

  • You and I will never understand the personal suffering attached to that split ......so poetic and deep felt.

  • Yeah, funny that. So forgive me for having such strong feelings. Deeply felt? Absolutely daldog3.

  • egos.

  • 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.

  • it's hard to believe it's a human being [Schon] playing guitar he's so good, it's hard to believe it's a human being singing

  • 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.

  • this is my first time hearing this 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.

  • thank you it's good but so dark i still like it anyway.

  • 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.

  • 88, definatly 80s hair metal

  • 1st album June 89', 2nd album august 91'

  • 2:17,yum....

  • 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!

  • este tema me mata!!un clasico solo para entendidos,aguante bad english!!!!

  • The years have just lifted from me. Gate God ALLMGHTY, I Love this man.

  • Big Band ! Big Music !

  • GREAT!

  • We need a time machine I want to go back 200? sucks

  • test

  • 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.

  • Great song..best on the album

  • 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!!

  • John is sooooooooooo hot!

  • It's song is great!! John is GREATT!!

  • John Waite is the lead singers name

  • how can anyone expect to be taken seriously dressed like that

  • lets see what you look like bitch

  • i sill listen to my tape of them. they were good and always will they.

  • i love this song and the lyrics and imagery they use in the vid are awesome. loooooove it!
