KEEL - BECAUSE THE NIGHT

[80smetalking3]

@alone8406 10000 maniacs??!!?? if your into yodeling... maybe

[severus4522]

Bueniisiimo tema bby!! es lo mas... =)

[TheGoldenPS1]

The Final Frontier is Keel's superior album. It has everything! Especially best cover version of Because the night and best ballad like Tears of Fire. Doesn't anyone agree?

[ravenfaust6669]

rock out

[alone8406]

10,000 maniacs version was the best.

Nie mam pytań, wypierdala pod Niebiosa :D

[bob45joy]

keel....enough said

[hardrocker80s1]

(Y) uf gran tema lml

[JosaTheRipper]

Apesar da Patti Smith tb ter tirado tb esse cover do Bruce Springsteen, axo q a musica "Because the Night" ficou mais phodástica e mais conhecida pela versão do KEEL ... eu lembro q tocou pra caramba nas rádios nos anos 80's. Bons tempos aqueles... e a musica nem se fala... fenomenal...

[LUCASFERNANDO37]

Nossa O Cara Canta Pra Caramba

[RocknRollHairMetal]

0:41 reminds me of Joan Jett :)

[ex5098]

@RocknRollHairMetal thats weird cuz i always thought that sounded a little close to a joan jett song

[cinghialemannaro76]

Hey, anybody has the chords for this? differs quite a bit from the Springsteen version.

[JoeEduard]

Ufffffffffffff Temazo!!!

[tebu140992]

did they do the original?

[GlazzedAgain]

@tebu140992 Bruce Springsteen originally wrote the song, but Patti Smith was the first to record and release it back in 1978.

[shabbasable]

@tebu140992 Springsteen did!

[Senythril]

@tebu140992 No the original is from patti smith.



[dalejr88412]

@Senythri keel sang this song first patti smith sorry

[winniethecrusher]

VHS FOREVER!!!

[Ironhawk86]

Ron Keel > Patti Smith

[classicmetalhead88]

hey everyone.thought i passed this along to anyone who wants to know but the band known as 10,000 manics covered this song also on 1 of their cd's.can't remember the title but i came across this 1 day while i was at a record store and the 2 sounded the same but the melodies was faster on KEEL'S original then 10,000 manics's version so that is my trivia for today.

[DreamWarrior87]

I'm not really into ballads, but this one is my favorite

[Kellioopy]

Love me some Ron Keel!!!!!

[brandontfullerton]

once again  metal succeeds at ruining something

[MrYngwie88]

great cover much better than the original

[ThePrincessStardusty]

The freekin' ROCKS !!! I LOVE THIS SONG, and for the guys, they do a bang up rockn' job!!! LOVE IT, .... ooh, and i'd take him home with me anytime, beyond yummy.... ; )

[SexLeppardMaster]

This one goes out to all the ladies bacause I love you all equally!

[Diegobalkzar]

my favorite song ever!!!!

[joaolucasWWeMk9]

the band is the bass the kiss

[poison2kitties]

touch me now....OK! :3

[jrgilbert]

This video epitomizes the '80s. I love this video and song. I liked Keel for the most part, but it was definitely this song that I was just smittened with. I would watch MTV half hour metal show everyday hoping to see this video. I agree with PeterAnton - I MISS THE '80S. I will go to my grave longing to be a teenager again during the '80s watching MTV. Great times.

[Aishiya1]

@jrgilbert I miss the eighties too. I'm right there with you. I was really happy to find this clip on YouTube.

[redkneck502]

wheres tim hogg that use to be there bass player im his son

and i took over i play the bass now hell yea

[HEVIMAKO]

Hey i live this song. Thanks Keel. For making my life better.

[HEVIMAKO]

@HEVIMAKO anf of course i i did mean that i love this song, not live..pardon my spelling friends.

[eilaykeynan]

amazing ballad

very powerful

[peteranton]

I dint see the mention of Bruce Springsteen who created the song!

Alice copper tone? Clone? Judas priest??

I'm never suprised at ppls willingness to show their stupidity on YOutube!

[vampval1]

I miss the 80's!

[LUISITON100]

this version is much better than the 10000 maniacs.

[Aishiya1]

@LUISITON100 You got that right.

[crprando]

An Alice Copper clone with a Judas Priest´s coreography.

[keirapotter]

Great song!! It was covered by Cascada in a eurodance version!! :))

[ladyTatyUchiha]

perfect *-*

[luizpace]

Keel...one of my favorites Bands of the 80's..

Great song....great Album..

[ragmanracing]

 i talked to him a few weeks ago, he does still play rock and went on stage and proved it with out a doubt. country is something he dabbles in tho.

[ericou812]

" " keel went country :(

[VitalSigns1]

These types of bands are so fucking awesome!!! They have perfect vocals, perfect harmony, very clear riffs, epic bass, an awesome powerful snare effect through the PA, and to top it off they have killer guitar solos!!! Why don't people like these types of bands? I think they fucking rule!!!!

[Popi80s]

@VitalSigns1 I fkin agree... 80'S HARD ROCK FOREVAAA! xD :D

[MrScoGlen]

Keel are one of my favourite bangs now, best version of that song i have ever heard, Because The Night!!!

[VitalSigns1]

Bruce Springsteen is great, but this version is like 100 times better

[1dallasmetalgirl]

I always loved Ron's voice and got the chance to see them at The Bronco Bowl in Dallas,Tx back in the day...got the chance to meet guitarist Bryan Jay after the show,so nice...very cool.

[kossofyou]

A great song reduced to the humdrum cliches of 80s rock.

[youngercga1968]

Great post of Keel! I love this song, it is so 1980s!!! I missed the 1980s!!!

[DjJtown]

It's sad that he went on to play hillbilly music...well Rock and Roll will never forget KEEL when he was rockin'

[fransries]

KISS !!!! and KEEL the BEST !!!!!!

[juan19652006]

yeah, the best version of this great song!!!

[inbetweentics]

i always liked patti smith's but when keel did this, i thought, now this is just the injection this song needed to launch it straight to the moon..

[jaketwisted666]

whos the original version by?

[BagOfToes]

@jaketwisted666 The Patti Smith Group.

[nsminc]

Great version,thanks Keel.

[beaasjobom]

agree, this is the best version of the song

[greekthanos]

best version of this song....ever

[Karenl609]

i just saw them at the house of blue in atlantic city they rock the house great band

[SilentRage26]

Forgot how great this song was.....

[SparkiiSilver]

this is just a great song. this is by far the best version

[chr1ssboy]

Mullett fest

[gwilt23]

One of the best Keel songs..even if it's a remake..I still consider it theirs!!! I remember when "the final frontier" came out way back when! LOL yeah' I'm that old! LOL

[RavenBlack15]

I never heard of Keel before, but I kinda like them.. And in September I'm going to see them play live =D

[Noraa1970]

Always loved this version. Never seen the clip before but played it a lot when I was about 15/16. Always wondered what happened to Keel.

[DannyelBonJovi]

this version is so much better and amazing

[VanishaGlamChick6]

@DannyelBonJovi This is version is way better than the original,teh way Ron sings it gives me the chills!!

[DannyelBonJovi]

@VanishaGlamChick6 i like the way Ron sings too , it´s completly touching.. but i can sing way better than him..if you wanna check it out lol just kidding :)

[mihellmi]

luv it!!!..thx for sharing

[Miladyryts]

I just love this band, love what they did with the song!! And all of that beautiful hair!!!!! They are all yummy.

[MrCrazieman]

@Miladyryts yummy? kinda weird, but each to his own...

[SebastianSierpe]

Hey andrescarpatto...i´m turning the fuckin´ volume up of the loudspeakers to the MAX (100)!...many THANX for sharing this fuckin´ great song!

Greetings from Santiago, CHILE!

Seb

[Karoke77]

Hair Metal!

[LandM18]

:::Because the night belongs to lovers:: great song !!

[AbenteuerDauerfeuer1]

I LOVE HARD ROCK! <3

[Kellioopy]

Best version of this song.

[edilee01]

WOW I forgot about these guys!

[cmtdaddy]

Damn! Graet band. Shoulda enjoyed the same success as Crue, Ratt, etc.

[WolfHeavyMetal]

Great version of a truly classic song!

P.S. Didn't the lead guitarist in Keel also have a guitar that had the "Twilight Zone" Tv show logo on it? That was a fine looking 6 string.

[TigertailzBezerk]

He did indeed, I think it was a B.C. Rich Gunslinger but im not 100% sure - it looked badass tho. Awesome band

[missZiggy549]

I realy do like this, but no one can beat Patti, thats inpossible.

Patti is everything to me, she is my life. I hope you understand... she wrote it with the Boss and they do it best, that´s just the way it is. Love u Patti

[kkpriest2112]

@missZiggy549 Yeah, a guy singing a GIRL'S song is kinda lame. Patti did rock this song, but there are other things in live like breathing, sleeping, working, and eating, maybe fucking???? Does Patti know that she is your life? You should let her know, she might make a new version of this just for you!

[missZiggy549]

Well, I woldent breath, sleep, work, eat or fuck if there was no Patti Smith in my life. You realy think you are funny, don't you? but if u like to make jokes about someones love for music, I pitty you cuz you never felt it yourself.

[BlackEyedSun]

There have been so may redos of this song. I agree. Patti Smith is the one.

[missZiggy549]

oh, THANK YOU!!! I never tought you would come... <33

[poison2kitties]

'touch me now' i love when he says that

[timmybobdiss]

This is so great. The singer kinda reminds you of Blackie Lawless at the right angles...

[DimoQuetRiotFun]

@timmybobdiss But,Ron Keel is better than Blackie :)

[fireguye4]

@DimoQuetRiotFun uh..no

[DimoQuetRiotFun]

@fireguye4 Why no,in my opinion,Ron Keel is on my top 5 list...

[HEVIMAKO]

This is awesome!

[greekthanos]

best version of this song ever

[Dvdjnknsn]

It's tough to screw up a Springsteen song - they are so well written.

[sthlmrockout]

Dont miss KEEL live @ Stockholm Rock Out, first show in sweden since 1986, this show will be exclusive for scandinavia!

[SuperPondo]

Damn, that sounded good !!!

[jblaskov]

Ron Keel's voice is better than Bruce Springsteen's and Patti Smith's. And Gene Simmons did a great job producing this.

[LorddelosOgros]

80's pero chafas, no, esta version no me gusto

[ROCKDRIGOSORTINO]

EXCELENT RON KEEL GENIAL

[trsidn]

Patti Smith did it way better....

[ghilliesuit7]

Sweet song

Thanks for posting

[AaronChatfield]

How can it be a rip off of 'jovi... if its a cover version of Patti Smith song?!?!

Idjuts...!

[GlamMetalhead]

Its not a rrip off, its just highly influenced by Bon Jovi and for those who actually play instruments, we know that it is very common for people to accidentally steal riffs that influenced them.

[crashk88]

cool

[Vedcmar]

they were a struggling band, Misfit. It's ok to rip off Bon Jovi- they weren't struggling. Good cover, tho...

[Hangardv]

Great Song ªªªª

[MegaMisfit]

I like this song and all... but am Ithe only one who hears a complete Bon Jovi rip off???

This is basically "You Give Love A Bad Name"

[burritto217paintball]

this came out before bon jovi . keels final frontier : 4/30/86 and bon jovis slippery when wet july of 86

[dewoklahoma]

your the only one.

[metalmessiah71]

KEEL Fucking rocks! I can't wait until the new album drops!!!!!!

[911AmericanSoldier]

I love that they spun it the way the song was supposed to be spun

A man Fucking a Woman!

Then you had 10,000 Maniac fuck it up with the lesbo version on MTV Unplugged.

They all have their place, but KEEL did it best 2nd version after Smith.

[IncontinenciaSuma666]

I like it ^^

[Littledragonlee]

Cool I like this cover

[aabelaw]

As this is circa 1986 (23 years ago!), whether they should have done a cover or not is a moot point. All the trappings of the '80s hair metal aside, it is still a pretty good cover, I still love it. De-metalize it a little, it may even work today. Too bad this (or any other song of theirs) could not really save the band from the tide of ... time.

[JSBros812]

well, it's better then some versions, i'll say that.

[Lakota1067]

Another rock band doing a cover version of a classic to maintain a flagging career. It's not a bad version, but after the impressive work on their debut album you have to wonder why they had to do this.

[TexanGiant]

Good for them. Keel turned a song I never liked into something kick ass. Now when I hear the other versions of this song, even the original I always think of Keel and play this version in my head.

[GetInTheRing99]

TexanGiant:

Yeah, their version is way a lot better than others even the original song itself...Becky covered this song in AI but i still was humming Keel's version in my head. I was hoping for her to proceed to the next level just cause of this song...80s Rock!

[ReMldr]

Ever thought of that maybe they are artists ? that they love this song and wanted to perform it their way ? noo you just have to be negative ... bad childhood ?

[Lakota1067]

Its called an opinion, arent you allowed to have one where you come from? I never said it was a bad version. Keel did some good work on their debut, it was an awesome record, its just disappointing to see them doing this when they're capable of doing outstanding material of their own. I like originality, don't you?

[Aishiya1]

I'll take Ron Keel. This is a different take on the song. I like it.

[evelskunny]

wow this is fuking awful,,this dude can totally not sing,,i can see why he yodels out country songs now,,idon't think it can be any worse or gay!

[Growl60]

I love Keel. They were the only other band then that was like Dokken. Serious melodic metal.

[noahmathios]

gamato!!!

[irishpatrick12]

springstein sucks monkey balls.

[8ranger88]

like the song but where is ron keel?

[comokeno]

Where? in the video singing and playing guitar, listen his voice.

[AngryAgain]

this is outstanding

[rockerka000]

BEST ....SONG.............

[blizzardofaz]

This IS the ONLY version that matters...to Hades with 10,000 Douche Bags, to Hades with Springstein too....KEEL F'ing rocks it!!!

[izzydye]

well said.

[m4ggoOot]

i think the original is better but both versions are beautiful in their own way...

[TheMoondog69]

BEST BAND THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT BIGTIME

[TheAlejandropc39]

80´s forever

[hakanRPF]

awesome.

[glamdog69]

Great version, captures the feeling of the song very well.. I love Keel....

[patsupfan]

this is the third version of "because the night" i've heard, personally i think that this is actually the best one. not a big fan of patti smith, although i do think bruce springsteen's voice is superior to that of ron keel.

[BettyBlowtorchRocks]

i aggree this is the best version of the song it just needed the hair metal sound to really bring it into it's own.

[rkeime1]

10,000 maniacs did a elevator version beside this ,smiths and the bosses.

[funkyrimpler]

Keel were doomed from the start....The lead singers name was Ron. I fkn love(d) this band...Happy days.

[zeppy770]

awesome and the ratings agree

[nikelback421]

is this the origonal

[flescum]

no, patti Smith and springsteen wrote it. it`s on her album Easter I think

[rkeime1]

it's on easter but i think the boss wrote it alone.

[rockkiwi]

Nah, Springsteen co-wrote it with Patti Smith. Joint effort.

[mgs1170]

fail

[chinoaltazor]

great song,

[catlong]

I ´don't like it. Nothing like Springsteen's version

[icedearthinathens]

NO BETTER

[wsohigian]

Failure!

[ludwig26]

This is a cover ya'll.

[TBHfilms]

Where in the Hell is Adam Axe Schwartz ??? Corsicana Rocked Keel

[Libra28K]

I was a Freshman in high school when Keel made this song a hit. To this day I still love it.  Thanks for the video posting. It sure brings back some terrific memories!

[saultman]

This song is awesome and off their best album in my opinion!!!!

[THRASHTILDEATH]

Very good song

[drummingdog13]

for evry1 of u fuckers who r cussing me out I WAS NOT SAYING KEEL SUCKED LIKE A WHORE I WAS SAYING BASSHUNTER DID!!!!

[GeezaBun]

How bad is this??? Can't believe the god that is Dave Meniketti is trailing this bumwipe along on their UK tour in October. Dave!!! Get a grip.

[sabbathozz666]

dude u suck cuz u didnt grow up on the remixs and stuff

[drummingdog13]

i was talking about basshunter! keel rocks!

[SQTS]

I'm 17 now been into classic rock, metal, punk etc since I was 5 years old nothing can top a great power ballad like this one, fucking legendary

even though my friends prefer shit like basshunter, they'll never rock 'n' roll though so fuck them!!

[drummingdog13]

wats basshunter?

[SQTS]

Oh!

some kind of shity "dance" or "trance" band, I think they are retarded, search on Youtube for "Basshunter- all I ever wanted" and see for yourself they are the same as MOST new bands/artists are just in the music bussiness for nothing but money!!

[drummingdog13]

o god they suck more than a whore!

[wild84child]

You suck the cummmm out of your boyfriends anus . Have fun with that gay boy.
