  • bad asss band saw them in concert ,lot of good times

  • Um this song didnt even come out on an album until like 86-87... so no it was not 5th on mtv debut. MTV debuted in 1981-82.. first song was The Buggles, Video Killed the Radio Star

  • It was an earlier version... by a band called PhD.

  • @gloomer

    Thats cool, but it still didnt air on MTVs original air date.. as she was referring to the Tesla version, it hadnt been covered yet.

  • @SonoranPrincess tesla didnt write the song they remade it the original was the 5th on mtv debut

  • @SonoranPrincess: This Tesla version is a remake. The original was by a British band called "Ph.D" and the original was the 5th song played on MTV.

  • Amen. Don't sit around missing the 80s and miss out on the best part of the ride. Grab their new cd "Twisted Wires" and get your goosebumps on!! Best band ever live and they're touring now...get your ass to a show...then grab 5 cds and share the love:) Thanks for 25 amazing years, Tesla!! Love you and your families too!!

  • i liked this band in the 80's

    But LOVE them now on my smart phone

  • Jeff Keith is one of the best vocalist in Rock n Roll, and Tesla is the BEST band I've ever seen live...it almost sounds too good- you'd swear your jamming to your own system. Thanks for sharing :)

  • 12 people are gay.

  • @dropdtuner Ain't that right?!?! : )

  • Oasis Ballroom Sacramento, CA City Kidd!! Good old Times!!

  • dude! jeans were really tight back then..

  • @ziftortion And yet, they weren't skinny.

  • great song great band

  • Got the single "Little Suzi/Before My Eyes" on german Electrola vinyl... I agree with

    @freetomato - because Aerosmith was/is just a bridge between hair metal and grunge bands. And Tesla was one of the legacies from Aerosmith. Legacy of just hard rock.

  • These guys still F*cking Rock!!

    Check out my live recordings from they're 9/20/10 concert in WA State...

  • so underated

  • i remember tesla opening up for david lee roth on the yankee rose tour thats going way back lol great band spent alot of my youth cruzin,,boozin,,and listening to tesla ahhh the good ol days

  • Lindo!!!

    Até os pardais choram e as? pedras cantam, quando a rádio toca esta canção...

  • Wow....brings back the old days at the Oasis Ballroom when they were City Kidd. Good then, great now. Rock on, Tesla. You were the bridge between the hair bands and the grunge bands, in my mind. Underrated but have a cult following, I think.

  • another good song by Telsa,

  • @reno7721 The Manhattan Project was named after an 1898 Manhattan Earthquake caused by Nikola Tesla in Trinity, New York. -Tesla made earthquakes then he caused Tunguska

  • Tesla has always kept it real.

  • @TM72727 Yes, and the band is not too bad either

  • Is that Kato Kaelin on drums?? hahaha

  • I grew up listening to this song - but the original 1983 version, by Ph.D ;)

    I've only just discovered this version, and I really like it. Whoever would have thought this was really a metal song!

    Nikola Tesla was an incredible, but sadly undervalued, gift to the world too.

  • Tesla Rocks... crank sucks

  • I am family to nikola tesla =D (for real)

  • Just saw them last week, they still kick ass!!

  • God bless Nikola Tesla, I wanna owe a Tesla Coil! Oh and of course the band is great too! I love this song :D

  • in memoriam of my SUZI........:)

  • TESLA MADE EARTHQUAKES IN 1899.

    SEPTEMBER 3, 1899

    SEPTEMBER 6, 1899

    SEPTEMBER 9, 1899

    "If you only knew the magnificence of the three, the six & the nine... then you would have a key to the universe."

    -Nikola Tesla

    (after causing earthquakes)

  • highly under-rated band like kingdom come. i saw them in the 80's in concert awsome band!

  • Great Cover of Ph. D make it Electric Guitars !!

  • Oh, He sings like Eric Martin, and the song like Mr. Big's.

    fortunately, in next album. they re' gettin' harder and, found the Tesla music.

  • @Haris4rings Mr. Big came out in 1988. Tesla's Mechanical Resonance album, which this song is on, is from 1986. I know what you mean in terms of similarity but Mr. Big was like a lot of bands in that they were just riding the wave of the existing style in popular "metal". However, Tesla was very unique in their sound. People called them glam metal but that was only because they toured with those bands. Tesla was really more "blues-based" and "grungy" and raw.

  • this song is wrote for my friend anastasia!!!suziiiiii!!!xD

  • great band, great inventor!

  • @mediblue9

    You know this is a cover, right?

  • @mediblue9 And to think he was chastised for thinking radio waves were CRAZY.

    Mr. Tesla, Genius does not begin to cover it. Well, now the world knows. ALL.

  • I love the end when they use the plasma ball to pay homage to the great Nicola Tesla. His Tesla coils made a whole room look like a plasma ball while he sat inside.

  • tanti tanti tanti...ricordi...

  • Tesla is the BEST band I have ever heard.

  • where the fuck is TOMMY SKEOGH ,he needs to come back ,this new guitarist doesn't cut it 4 me ,FUCKIN' poser!!!TOMMY & FRANK complimented each others style like thunder & lightning.The first 4 albums containing the fab 5 are 4 of the best in hard/metal history AMEN!!

  • awesome!!!

  • yeahh rock on !

  • great song!!!!

  • Excellent song!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • 4 one ppl should understand there actions in this video it is what was the moves and big hair thing in the 80's..all hair bands did things of this sort..this is one the best bands to walk this earth..long live tesla..kick our ass with ur tunes way in ur 70's tesla i know if im around ill still be listening to jeff and the guys..mauhhhhhhh life long fan here...

  • Pretty cheesy in retrospect, eh. I still love 'em though!

  • Good song, but too many cheesy rockstar moves. Didn't any of them see "This Is Spinal Tap"?

  • who gives a shit about politics,tesla rocks, the new cds even harder than their other cds..

  • Nice song, very good!!!!

    Don't bring us down, Little Suzy's on the Up !Peace... No War...Any more.

    Biff

  • wow guys all of you should just give it a fucking rest... this is a kick ass tesla song that has nothing to do with politics. so if you wanna slam obama and mccain do it on a video even remotely related to them rather than on this really good song.

  • @deinemutter215 Yes, and TOTALLY agreed...i'm disappointed if they HAD TO...they didn't do all over "Modern Day Cowboy"... ;)

  • Amen, Obama does suck. I hate the son of a bitch !

  • All politicians suck

  • Obama Sucks!!!

  • The bitch is a Muslim. Please dont forget 9/11. Dumb Ass !!!!!

  • You have no idea what you're talking about. Try coming up with your own thoughts, instead of parroting the propaganda your narrow mind hears from the folks who are just using your ignorance to get you to vote Republican.

  • I'd love for there to be more, but how many Tesla fans you ever see of the chocolate persuasion? I'm white, and you're an ignorant racist piece of dirt who's ruining my country - please move somewhere else.

  • Dude????really??? A form of belief should not be warred over. Faith in one religion is faith in the same as yours because they are all base on the SAME PRINCIPALS. Don't fall into popular trend to HATE. I'm not trying to persuade you to either side. Just be a little less ignorant about the truth. God, Allah, Buddah, Christ, even "The Force" to lighten the matter, all share the same viewpoint on life. The world is in more of a shit hole now then ever. We need to stand together UNITED as AMERICANS

  • @enjoyingmylife How long's it been now??Obama haS NOT DONE A FUCKING THING except fuck over those who actually try and work for what they have....What a joke. Tesla does rock though, hwo did the political crap end up here anyway???

  • @SLP1811 By "fucking over" do you mean cutting their taxes or preventing the economy from spiraling into oblivion by keeping state governments funded, keeping most of the domestic auto industry intact, or making it possible for them to get private health care even when self employed or without employer benefits? The "political crap" always ends up here because every comment section on the internet is filled with people who believe every lie on talk radio/fox.

  • @molasky If that is how you see it I wish I could look through your rose color glasses. Frankly, I don't see it that way. As he puts our nation further in the hole and opens borders, lets more good jobs slip away replacing them with $10.00 an hour garbage. The only thing this guy is doing is trying to get another term for the sake of it. He does not have the best interest of of anyone in mind except his family and where they vacation. He is not interested in us standing together as American

  • @SLP1811 Appreciate your reply. I'm only talking facts. I'll respond in several pieces if that is ok. Let's take debt: the deficit is created by these things: reduction in revenue (2001/2003 tax cuts) and new structural spending obligations that were not "paid for": Medicare part D, Afghanistan and Iraq. Prior to these things we had a surplus every year and these things can be reversed. The rest of the current deficit just the effect of economic crisis itself on GDP.

  • @molasky I understand. I guess my point is the guy in office now has done nothing in my opinion. I certainly won't be voting for him unless drastic change occours, I just don't think he is equipped to do any good...Yes, he came in to many problems but in this Proud Americans eye he is not a leader either. God help us because the President can't

  • @SLP1811 Well, I can't speak to his personality, just policies. Your concerns are too vague to satisfy ('done nothing'? I heard he's done a litany of evil things!). But here's the deal: we live in a two party system. If you don't vote for him, then perhaps you don't vote. But if you vote for the "other guy" you'd be voting for the party that 1. opposed everything I just outlined -- even the things that were once their own ideas 2. shaped the basic economic vision that we live/suffer in today.

  • @SLP1811 Debt Part II: the "stimulus" (a combination of tax cuts and transfers to states to keep basic services in the crisis.) The latter did not raise the structural deficit at all because it was a single expenditure, not a new program. So the spending portion ceases to have an effect after the initial year. Only the *tax cut* part worsened the deficit (so you can see why the Bush tax cuts need to expire). Only one new program since 09: Health Insurance Reg, which does NOT raise the deficit.

  • @SLP1811 "Let good jobs slip away": If you believe in free trade/markets, that's a natural effect of global competition, right? If you don't believe in govt intervention in the economy then that's the way it goes. But the govt can actually do a few things and one is invest in "good job" training and another is slow the otherwise rapid decline of old "good jobs" in traditional industries like Auto. Also you can eliminate tax incentives for outsourcing. Check, Check and hopefully Check.

  • @SLP1811 And finally, he "opens borders": Here are the facts. All aspects of border enforcement ($, NG troops on the border, deportations) are up under Obama, and the number of illegal immigrants has declined! It's just flat out false to say that borders are more "open" now than they were two years ago. Deportations are at RECORD levels! -- Not rose colored classes, my friend, but reality. These are moderate, practical policies and they are ironically exactly what you are asking for.

  • Great song of 1987! Thanks for posting

  • did they write this for suzi quatro?

  • Tesla didn't write this.

  • NO, THis is a cover of a PHd song, they were a British band from the 70's and 80's..

  • one of those tunes that represents the good time of the 80's

  • I remember the 80s . nobody liked this crap except me and the other guys who didnt get laid, they did not play it on the radio or at the local bars only on MTV headbangersball and dial MTV.20 years ltr everyone wants it back because its GONE.

  • i love them and their version of this song!

  • that was it if you lived in the 80's you would now thats when music rock not like todays crap

  • Just in case you guys didn't know it, this is a Cover version. PHD (PH.D) released this song in 1980, and Tesla covered it several years later.

  • Ass hole>>>. Fag Boy

  • Tesla was good... They were rooted in gritty blues-rock as oppossed to slick areana rock like some of their contempoaries

  • That's not true dude. Grunge did come but have you listened to groups like Gamma Ray and Avantasia(modern). Alice in Chains, The Offspring, Social Distortion,I seen these guys. They are no fag boys. They are solid. Tesla no doubt deserves more. Why they don't have respect. It's because people don't know who the band is. I'm convinced. It's like Strength by the Alarm everyone tells me I thought that was U2. Nope! People expect others to tell them about music. I'm done with them.

  • Compared to the great talented bands of the 80's

    the no talent grunge shit just killed the best era for real music with great bands who had talent..Now what do we have???? JUNGLE YO YO RAP SHIT VULGAR..TO WOMEN AS ONE POINT OF HOW WORTHLESS IT ALL IS, Today there is no real music left, all fag boy bands, who suck period.

  • IM not sure about that, I think the music just ran its course. Like =everything else in our universe. just enjoy as much as you can bro

  • dammit.......I miss this REAL music! wish I was 18 again then I could re-live this great band

  • If I was 18 agin, I would be rock n in a band.

  • Love this band. By the way, did we all wear high-top basketball shoes in the 80's? Guilty as charged. Was I supposed to trade in my Air-Jordans for cowboy boots?

  • LOL. Please, no cowboy boots, they are slippery but I do wish the 80's high tops make a comeback

  • Dud the totally are. Goe to Zumiez or Foot locker. They got them fo sho lol

  • agreed grunge like nirvana killed the 80s and their solos. but i would definitely say not talentless, they had great rythm stuff

  • dont worry Edward he's not thinkin of the music, what matters the most, it's not english class it's about great music,,,say " of" how many times you like...Tesla rules

  • vary cool song

    :)

  • Little " Theresa " Is On The Up!

  • I'm done. These guys are beyond comparison.I seen them live, I've listened to the talent. I'm humbled. Check out Gamma Ray and Avantasia. Even the song by Motorhead called No Voices in the sky as well as Filter. The sound your looking for is there. You got to look. Peace be open minded.!

  • I saw Tesla open for Motley Crue on the Dr. Fellgood tour in Vancouver. Tesla kicked so much ass. Jeff Keith is an awesome frontman.

  • man what ever happened to great style of ROCK

  • don't know if u find it let me know

  • The no talent grunge shit killed it, the music of the 80's were the best, and was an era never again to be equaled.

  • People always slag on the 80's music. But if you take away the big hair and strange cloths your left with some good Rock N' Roll that has survived the test of time. Great white,GNR,Motley Crue,Def leppard,Tesla all great bands with killer songs!

  • i agree with dogbloud.. kids today will neva know the music and the shows we had.. god i miss the 80's..first time i saw Tesla they opened for Def Lepperd on the Hysteria tour.. Good times.. good times

  • oh man you are so right but we do have some cool rock bands now and motley is back!!!

  • tesla is the best band i ever heard im from texarkana and so is tesla.

  • I saw Tesla twice in the late 80's. The first time in Calgary opening for Poison on the Open Up & Say Ahh tour in 1989 & the second time opening up for Motley Crue on the Dr. Feelgood tour in 1990 in Vancouver. Both times they were awesome. Sigh***those were the days. I feel sorry for kids today as they missed out on the amasing hard rock decade.

  • I grew up with these guys in Foothill Farms, Sacramento, California. They were just a garage band at the time. They started making it big, but never forgot thier roots!!! Helluva band!!!

  • I saw them yesterday in bilbao ( spain ) and they were awesome !!!

  • tesla definitely one of the more talented metal bands but their fashion sense c;mon take a page from the black crowes or,,anyone but david lee roth

  • "Most" of the 80s music has been some of the best music ever made!!!

  • This is the best dancin' rock video I have ever seen in my life I love the moves, love love love the moves!

  • A great tribute to Led Zeppelin's "Gallows Pole" from Led Zeppelin III. At the time we had to put up with suckass Bon Jovi, this was a breath of fresh air.

  • r u fukin kidding bon jovi is awesome

  • Bon Jovi is a great band!!! Zeppelin was the gods of rock!! This band is great but Bon Jovi musc deserves respect!! they've been one the greatest Hard rock band of the 80s!!!! Do you Known some albums of this band! Can you give me some titles of their best album???

  • Bon Jovi sucks ass, dude.

    Are you even listening to this video?

    Listen to Tesla's Love Song.

    Shithead. =.=

  • Hey Tarot boy or girl!!! Bon Jovi is a great band! stop!!! I respect your opinion!! But between Jovi and Tesla there are a great difference!!Tesla is only a little Hard Rock band of 90s!!! Idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Tesla "Mechanical Resonance" 1986

    Idiot!!!!!!!!

I don't use bad words only because I respect the hold people!!! For your information grand-Pa I have all discography of Tesla!! BUT for me Bon Jovi is better!! Bye Grand-Pa
