[Mrmetal770]

'HIS SPLIT TIME WAS SLOWER ON THAT PORTION OF THE TRACK.' 'HES LOOSIN' POSITION' r.i.p. Benny Parsons

[BrothuhRabbit]

Lesson: You're never good enough in the eyes of a woman with a mean streeeeeeeeeeeeach!!! (sounds like dude had a speech impediment.)

[eman930]

Get em' Phil !

[sunny31473]

great rock band

[bucky468]

Sounds like early Sammy Hagar.

[bucky468]

Some people may argue that Y&T is more hard rock than they are heavy metal. It's too close to call here imo.

[bucky468]

4 people still like Britney Spears & Lady Gaga.

[AsphyxGr]

The main riff is a KILLER with fuckin gorgeous screaming harmonics !!!

[sirkevin1967]

Saw these guys and Dokken open for Twisted Sister in 1984........damn that was ages ago...am I that old

[ILoveCurves88]

@gip1100 I second that!! I had my CDs stolen N somehow forgot bout them for a bit til the other day. I was SOOOOOO shocked N saddened to learn Phil had died!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Y & T---''MEAN STREAK''

[Chuck65201]

So Epic!!

[euhlich]

oh what a rush in long beach rip

[TomYanks]

I used to shop at Phil's dad's music store in Oakland when I was just starting out on the drums. Great place...met Leonard there and that's when he taught me how to spin the sticks... One of the BEST and Un appreciated bands EVER! YESTERDAY and TODAY---FOREVER!

[bigbadbob58]

@TomYanks Steve Sampiao was playing with Mike at some point in his garage.

[Slimyscaly48]

Thumbs up if you came here because of NASCAR 2000

[creichner]

Far better video than their Baywatchy Summertime Girls...this was their heyday!!!

[murcia1975]

what a great riff !! i love it ..God, those days were so positive in music.. Playing from the heart.

[top20modernrock]

Why were the men so manly back then? And today they are so gay?

[WomackPhotoKCMO]

@top20modernrock Feminism...

[TheMichaelseymour]

@WomackPhotoKCMO I'm a bloke - and i reckon its a good thing - too many of us males are pig arseholes to the women in our lives - straight up.

[VadaBliss]

@Jayzthabest

It's Yesterday & Today. :D

[ChiefDCS]

Serious sounds from a super group. Good stuff.

[Jayzthabest]

Yesterday & Tomorrow my friend 

[ericou812]

what does the "Y" and "T" stand for?

[TheMichaelseymour]

@ericou812 YOUNG TURDS.

[officialQUITmusic]

Subscribe to my channel for future rock videos and new songs! we are getting our band in the process to record and get songs on itunes! dont miss it!

[MasterGrowy]

Man, I'm getting old. I remember when this was new.

[bloolouboyle]

Mid 80s--I Remember rippng up the Lakeshore in Toronto with this and Dio blaring out the window of my 70 Chevelle SS---good times. Still have the car btw.

[THECARS7879]

I love the outfit on that girl

[Propblaster]

Classic lineup, Leonard and Joey, awesome players

[realfighter408]

oh yeah y&t at the santa clara county fair great times!!

[GEORGEZNEMETH]

I remember when the drummer was in REAPER bak in allentown, Pa.

[vangelis721]

Ahhh yes...Y&T...Great memories of the Bay Area!!!!

[bunnyrocks69]

loved this song too...memories...

[Slimyscaly48]

I'm surprised I don't see any references to NASCAR 2000, as this song was featured in it, and that's how I found out about it.

[MrNorsewise]

Shake it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[purseonal2010]

The 3 people who disliked this video are probably Justin Bieber fans!



[regulator3641]

@purseonal2010 like Ozzy said "What's aBieber?"

[wsohigian]

AUTO PICTURE

[lymbicnoodle]

another underated band

[purseonal2010]

@lymbicnoodle Sad that they never hit the big time like bands of that era. They are such a great band, and have always had tasty songs. "Mean Streak" is the first one i had ever heard. One time in the 80's, i saw them perform live, on national TV! They did "Black Tiger" and "Open Fire". VERY awesome!

[lymbicnoodle]

@purseonal2010 i even their albums..when they were first called Yesterday and Today..hence Y&T

[purseonal2010]

@lymbicnoodle yep i know that. I would rather they be Y&T than Yesterday and Today. Y&T fits better!

[purseonal2010]

Damn this video is old, but awesome! I remember it like it was yesterday, and it was at least 20 years ago when i last heard the song. I am surprised i still knew some of the lyrics! Dave Maniketti/Y&T is kick ass!

[soleshifter]

@purseonal2010 Yeah.... so do i.... things sure were different back in our day, huh ?

[purseonal2010]

@soleshifter oh definitely! Sad that the bass player died. I have a friend in California who is going to see them soon at a club somewhere. Lucky dude!

[soleshifter]

@purseonal2010 Oooo i want to go... i didn't know about the bass player... sad.... what happened to him?

[purseonal2010]

@purseonal2010 Phil Kennemore was his name, and he died last month from lung cancer. He was 57. He was one of the founding members of the band.

[MALEVOLENTFORCEMETAL]

MENIKETTI=GOD!! \m/

[Bable012]

lol NASCAR 2000

[Vahvajussi]

@Bable012 :D looks like im not the only one who heard this song from NASCAR 2000 :D back when i was 8 years old ^^

[23Fists]

@Vahvajussi I did as well, then my mom got out the 8-track :D

[Slimyscaly48]

@Vahvajussi I guess I'm not either!

[mammatusofmystery]

A nice chunk of 80's metal video cliches!

[kevinl1969]

RIP Phil. You will always live in your music.

[msfattytrollbitch]

at 2:30 when the drummer is just sittin there i laughed my ass off

[boycbronco]

This was always one of those songs it was extremely dangerous to play while driving my '66 Chevelle ;-)

[Nigelcf]

RIP Phil :(

[jmuhlenbruch]

I was in a band lucky enough to open for these guys 2 years ago. Phil and Dave were two of the nicest guys you'll EVER meet. Phil was also quite a jokester. We miss you Phil. I can honestly say I shed a few tears over this one.

[MrMetalman66]

Dammit another Rocker gone... R.I.P Phil..

[dorian1112]

R.I.P. Phil, your powerful bass lines and songs will be with us forever! With love and respect Rock on!

[edwardprzydzial]

[tangarock]

LOVE PHIL ALWAYS WITH US...R.I.P

[spyderg1]

R.I.P. Phil 

[TurboThrash]

[Gumpokla]

[Metalrulez777]

[Miscio94]

Auto picture!

[trollster69]

my o my what a turd cutter on that girl!!!

[RickBlacker]

@trollster69

hahaha.. Never heard that term before... Turd cutter! That's funny stuff!

[Tiamat1156]

@trollster69

ROFL ...turd cutter? that's classic!!!

[67firebird428]

@trollster69 She got a mean streak, not a mean skid mark

[pumpkinking422]

@trollster69 Oh yeah...The butt's nice,AND the legs!!!!

[1Milwinmils]

Love the words in this song.I also got a chance to see Y & T at the Sana Monica Civic also around 82' - 83' opening up for Wasp.It was a killer show. A main California staple - Y & T.Always like Dave's Meniketti's unique vocals...The band rocks.....

[mrbonesmcgee]

definately an under rated heavey metal band. this is some of the best guitar work of all time!

[MichaelMG711]

Got a good one for all of you.........saw these guys in '77 as the opening act for Kiss and Wishbone Ash at the Santa Monica Civic. By the time Y&T and Kiss (their first breakout show too) were finished the place was blown sky high. My friend and I slept through Wishbone Ash!

[Tiamat1156]

Damn, the last time I saw a mouth like that, it had a hook in it!!

[kurtespo]

This Song was inside may head all day yesterday !!!!

[tlotshawdanmarusa]

LMAO AT MCTROJAN I WAS THERE BACK IN THOSE DAYS TOO ROFL!!! BOTTLE OF JD IN HAND!!! :D

[jshorva65]

Reminds me of a girl I dated back in the 80s (steady from '84-86, then on-and-off from '86 to '92)! This chick was so PROUD of her BITCHY SIDE that she actually told me this should be her theme song once! She was like a drug addiction ... INCREDIBLE HIGH because she was AMAZINGLY HOT AND GREAT IN THE SACK but would turn on you and rip your fucking heart out just to get the reaction ... and then she'd do the whole "sweet talking" bit to hook you again after she'd PISS YOU OFF! An addiction!!

[garimo77]

Ya, sounds a lot like Sammy but better!

[LivingAfterMetal]

agree-sounds like sammy

[TrejosEd]

What a great riff of Dave Meniketti... Thanks kissmaniak for uploading the video!

Great memories ´84-and around!

[VeryOrigional]

How can even 2 people not like this? Yesterday & Today, (Fucking beautiful)

[wgueits]

I certainly hope they have these type of videos preserved somewhere

[wbetson]

Looks kinda like him too

[theraposo4]

my dad met the drummer of this band and my dad is good friends with the bass player

[MaaikeL0vesMetallica]

i've seen these guys live this friday... its was soo freakin' awesome... these guys are amazing! :D

[Sonnetalex]

2:41 is exactly the same as steel panther - death to all but metal at 2:08 !!! i hope it was intended as some sort of tribute!

[dizzaztergirl]

I love it @ 2:56 LOOK! No cavities! 

[UberKrispy]

shit man if this isn't a jam then i don't know what is

[panties6969]

really an "80`s musicvideo" heheheh...tough the music still rocks

[HindsightProductions]

Dave Meniketti always had an awesome voice.. these guys never got the recognition of the pretty boy bands.

[gobthebuster]

Thumbs up if you first heard this song on NASCAR 2000.

[pashedmotatos]

@gobthebuster Me.

[nickelfer]

You can't compare Mineketti to Hagar and Snyder, Dave's a work horse with TALENT !!!

[seanburdine]

Awesome song. And very true -- I've lived it. You don't want to be in a relationship with a woman who has a mean streak!

[Mexilplex1000]

Mean streak extra chessey please!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chrisfrogg]

Cheesy vid but class track...... Just like all Y&T stuff.... Immense

[djphonyx1]

DAMN that chick has a BIG mouth!!!!! @3:04

[TheMichaelseymour]

great song ....ridiculous clip.

[UberKrispy]

@TheMichaelseymour what you don't like the tongue grabbing the guitar neck

[lennyjr1]

great guitar and YES, lead singer does sound little like sammy

[MarquisDistro]

1:13 YES!!!!

[UberKrispy]

3:25 what the fuck?!? LOL

[MrGhanson1564]

While living across the street from the Caberet in San Jose during the early '90,s I saw them more times than I wanted to. I just wanted to have a few beers after work and there they were. THEY ROCK!!.

Thanks for bringing back the memories!!!!

[gasshuffer]

the auto tracking feature on vcr's. i miss that.

[UberKrispy]

If this doesn't make you rock out with your cock out then you got somthin wrong with you

[BoomBaYaYa]

@UberKrispy Agreed!

[bobraceway]

Just found out they are playing down the street from me today Looks like I might have something to do tonight.

[keithnelson2112]

Y&T Rocks

[hesh63950]

imsorry but that chick dances like a dumbass .... maybe it was cool back in the day though

[hesh63950]

DAMN these guys are good!

[ZSqwerty]

Seein the Y&T Facemeter Concert on Sunday! Gonna ROCK!!

[fisk122]

@ZSqwerty BE THERE SAT. IN NYC

[prometheus0328]

Dave Meniketti plays a Les Paul,cool enough in my book.

[MrRutger97]

[tmwnat]

What is a 'streech' and what makes it mean??

[RoadrunnerGuy]

@tmwnat I think it supossed to be She is on a Mean Streak..The "CH" you are hearing is symbol.

[sfxwheels]

saw these before they were famous , support band to dc back in black tour ,,,,,,back in the day

[EJG5150]

the opening riff kind of has the sound of Judas Priest doesn't it?

it's great

[ZSqwerty]

@EJG5150 Thats what I said when my Dad played this 4 me!

[vocaltalent1]

This song rocks. 1) are they Sweedish? And why does he say "streaSH" instead of "Streak"? I also like their Hurricane and Rescue Me.

[dontlayeggs]

I discovered this song from Nascar 2000 soundtrack. This is great old school rock.

[ToddSweeneyOnce]

This song is so damn good.

[TREBORMIGHTY]

Will see these guys this weekend at Swedish Rock Festival (among 30.000 metal heads). Really looking forward as this was one of my favorite bands many years ago. I totally agree this band is one of the most underated bands ever.

[Metallicat100]

Ah, the memories. Those were the days. So much fun to listen to the music while admitting the cheesiness of the Aqua Net days. At least my generation wasn't into disco!!! And this band is so good live.

[metalgod110263]

I remember partying with these guys back in the 80s.

[skinisuzu]

They r one of band who a lots glam metal copy them but they wont said that its truth they try to said they r start of glam metal sound its not truth Y & T r the first

[agwoodliffe]

2:28 What the hell? lol

[YandTrocksuptheirons]

@agwoodliffe ha i saw that too

[AngelinaV67]

I am hearing a bit of the old Montrose here..Lol, now that someone already mentioned it..it's all Great Rock to me..

[YandT1985]

This is a killer from Sweden,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[serloren]

Y&T definitely pulled more than a little from Montrose
