To me, this song is about the "Meaning of Life".... He's still looking for the "Rainbow" - the meaning of his existance in the "Rose" - the miricle of Life.... A man who wants to be come to/REACH
his full potential, but doesn't know which path to tread... Not unlike myself....
awesome I've loved winger since they came out and this shows how great they still are, still one of the best bands around, and this just goes to show just how much todays music sucks
Absolutely KILLER! I've wanted to see a live performance of this song for nearly 18 years. These guys are one of those bands like Queensryche that is just amazingly good live. Kip and Reb NEVER got enough credit and I curse Mike Judge for making fun of them and ruining their run in the late 80's early 90's. Kip has been writing and playing great music for almost 20 years. He truly is one of the great rock song writers of our time. And Reb? That guy is one of the best...period!
I often wonder who the person is that disliked this. Having met Kip and Reb both in Hartford Connecticut on veterans day a few years back, I have to say that the conversation I had with both was both insightful and down to earth. Don Dokken and Reb took my bike for a spin round the neighborhood and came back frozen but the look on Rebs face was one of pure Joy. Awsome musicians doing amazing things.
Extremely talented band. Love this live version...especially Rod's drumming. Easy to fall in Reb's shadow, but they clearly gave the end of this version to Rod, who took it straight the f*ck home. Awesome.
The big difference between Winger and all the other hair bands back in the day is that Winger was a group of real musicians, with a sound of their very own. Most of the others were just guys with long hair who had a fantasy about being rocks stars. Winger deserved a lot more credit than they ever got. Kip Winger is a great song writer, and Reb Beach is no doubt one of the best guitarists around.
Oh my gosh, how awesome! I have seen them twice in concert and they get better with age! They are so unappreciated! Rod is unbelievable on drums as always! Love you guys Always!
It still amazes me to this day that most of you have not yet heard the latest of his solo stuff. If you really want to hear some serious kipster, Try finding the made by hand album. All acoustic and recorded in his basement at home. Excellent production. And of course typical Kip Winger mastery of musicianship. Reb my brother had the best time with you and Don Dokken cuising the streets of hartford connecticut. Still have the photos. hope you come to see us again. James Gang!
Such a shame. One of the most talented bands of the era and they were just ridiculed. I totally loved these guys, even though Kip was a heart-throb, they were totally legit. I saw Kip in Dubuque Iowa at a little festival...solo....he kicked ass but people I talked to in the audience thought he sucked. What gives?????????
Um, the "new guy", John Roth, is actually very talented and is the new guitarist for Giant and incidentally does play keys and actually plays bass later in this same concert for "Who's the One" when Kip plays 12 string. For whatever reason, Kip has decided to do the keys himself and incorporate the bass in the keyboard part. Calling John an untalented idiot is actually an isult to Kip as well - you really think he'd have someone like that in his band?
I went to see them on that tour. I have idolized Beach for over a decade and he hung out with us and was a really cool guy after the show. Excellent solo on this take. Very smooth as always. Winger is one of the best live bands in the business. Go see them live its a must.
I LOVE this song. I have it on an old tape. I believe it was" In The Heart of the Young." Kip Winger is awesome & PULL was a great album. They have never received the recognition they deserve.
You're right about that! I got teased for liking Winger, but to hell with that!! I wore my shirts PROUDLY! :) I'd still like to take a chunk out of Reb! lol lol.......Kip too! hehehehehehe...
Uhm, i did NOT say that his vocals where bad, i just said that the soundtech burried the vocals completely in the mix..
What i was saying is that this performance is not the best that Winger can dish out, but its not the bands fault, its the sound tech's.
If you have ever played live, you can hear that the problem here is that they cant hear them selves when they play, so they just wing it(No pun intended.).. still pretty damn good though!
WINGER es una de mis bandas favoritas. es un ícono de los 80s.. La banda está en buena forma, Kip está cantando muy bien, y Reb espectacular...¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Reb es increible... que pena que sea tan subestimado, en especial ahora que no puede mostrar sus habilidades en Whitesnake, pero Doug aldrich es increible igual...
Of course that would have been Kip's job to lay a decent original bass line... then strut around and play it while singing...chicks dug that crap I guess....sitting at the keyboard just doesn't fly live....that's like studio work for the guy who's supposed to be the front man.....lame stage presence :( Reb rips just about as good as ever
Reb Beach...Brilliant. And the consumate pro. No ego and one gifted Mothereffer. He's played in Winger, Alice Cooper, Dokken, Whitesnake and Night Ranger and has mastered every damn one of the solos assigned to him. And having met him a couple of times..one of the nicest guys walking this little planet of ours. Long live Winger!!
that explains a lot. i brought in a Ratt CD to learn Round And Round from my guitar teacher and he's was like "why the hell are you trying to learn this bubblegum crap, you need to listen to heavier stuff if your gonna get into metal." Oh, and same here about liking them all. I can listen to ANY type of music, but not rap, screamo, or that emo crap they try to pose off as good music.
To me, this song is about the "Meaning of Life".... He's still looking for the "Rainbow" - the meaning of his existance in the "Rose" - the miricle of Life.... A man who wants to be come to/REACH

There is no bass because the new guy is an idiot and he is more a poser than a talented musician.
Paul played guitars, bass, keyboards and also wrote some songs.
The new guy, well he plays guitar thats it.
So now Kip has to do all the piano and keyboard parts.
And Kip is a great musician but playing bass and piano at the same time is difficult.
Unless he can play with his feet or something haha.
