  • I wish they could take the stage, play this song at the music awards, and kick the hip-hop garbage in the balls and remind the world what real music sounds like! Blow all the no talent assclowns out of the building!!

  • OMG I just saw Tommy on tv doing this song! I used to LOVE this song in the day!!!! Still rocks!

  • Cool song. I opened for Chris Day years ago. Wish the Philly rock scene didn't die after the late 80s

  • Great video...I fondly recall seeing Tommy with John Kuzma opening at the Chestnut Cabaret....but, yo, VEVO is hideous.....YouTube rules!

  • Philly loves ya , God bless Tommy!

  • what a cool band to see live. This is a great song, love it! Good, good memories!

  • Still loving Tommy 25 yrs later!

    xx

  • One kick ass song. This is one I have never gotten tired of or will ever get tired of. One of the great songs of rock. Thank you Tommy Conwell for this awesome song. God bless you brother.

  • all likes, no dislikes. Tommy do this song again without the white rap

  • philly rules... tom is an old friend of my moms family

  • Great F*cking song!! They do write them and perform them like this anymore..so damn sad..

  • badass greasy Philly rock. One of the best live acts I saw in the '80s.

  • boys and girls-the video you just saw,is what they call unadulterated rock and roll-simply put!love,peace,and chicken grease....

  • @3musicmakers I beg to differ. I'm looking at the original vinyl 12" lp of "Walkin' On The Water" (from 1986 on Antenna Records) right now. The version in this video is not the original that many of us in the Philly area refer to as the "original". The version on the lp I'm referring to is more raw, and doesn't have the over-produced cowbell through the entire song.

  • They don't make Rock and Roll like this anymore...this is a timeless classic and a great F&%#in song. Tommy Conwell...you rock.

  • nicest guy in rock

  • This was back when MTV still played videos and radio wasn't a audio hellhole.

    I remember sitting in traffic trying to get to my 730am class on time listening to this CD.

  • @epistte Wait a second...MTV played music videos? What is this "music video" you speak of?

  • @cletusmax77 CD reissued at  h t t p :// tommyconwellstore . com (Remove spaces in URL)

  • @3musicmakers Actually the original is on the "Walkin' On The Water" LP on Antenna Records from 1986. It was the same local label that released The Hooters' "Amore" LP before they were signed to Columbia.

    This is the re-record version from the "Rumble" LP in 1988.

  • This was my jam for 10 years! He's so awesome!

  • This was shot at the 23 East Cabaret in Ardmore PA. I remember seeing them there and the other cabarets when it was just Tommy, Jimmy, and Paul. Nothing beat the raw energy of just the three of them. Then Cornerstone got to them, castrated them, and turned them into Tommy Conwell and the Young Hooters. Oh well.

  • @ProfessorEggflesh I used to walk to 23 East Caberet and see so many cool bands and get drunk and walk home after a night of listening to PA rock and roll.

  • WTF? How many songs today sound this good?

  • @OneBigmutha1109

    Few, if any. Basic rock-n-roll, it is becoming a lost art.

  • Awesome! I wish they'd re-release the "Walkin' On Water" album on cd or, in any format for that matter. I wish I'd never gotten rid of it when I decided to sell my cassettes. I don't think they ever printed that album after the first run.

  • @cletusmax77 tommyconwellstore

  • Love this song. Wish I could get a copy of the original version that they used to play on MMR before the band signed with Columbia Records.

  • @punkrckgrl68 I'm lucky enough to still have the original on vinyl and still think that version is better than this one.

  • still (doing the rachael zoe...LOVE LOVE LOVE...after all these years!

  • What a great, upbeat song. Loved it from the first time I heard it.

  • Thanks so much for the proper treatment here, love this song!

  • Now this, my friends is TRUE ROCK N ROLL!!

  • @JohnnyRichard Reminds me of John Cougar in the early years, He mellowed a bit too much later on. Play the Guitar though, a kindred song. I got this album on cassette! haha

  • @MetallicBill I was in college at the time and couldnt afford a CD player so I also have the cassette.

  • Just the right amount of cowbell

  • It's all hundreds!

  • so true a great song but of course, it never made it big time...it was still good

  • @phillygirl5968 well it hit number one on the top mainstream rock tracks

  • @phillygirl5968 - are you kidding me? This song was #1 on the Billboard charts for at least one week. How much bigger can a song get?

  • @phillygirl5968 apparently this is the song that got them a gold record...how do I know this? because Tommy was at my uncle's house tonight for the big 4th of july party he throws

  • Tommy was kicking ass in the philly market when I was in college there in 85-86

  • where do you live now?

  • @phillygirl5968 Minneapolis. I was At Widener U. Class of 86

  • me too dude!

  • Dude, I fuckin love this song

  • @rainbowupthebutt How great when no one is telling you what you SHOULD do---you just.........do. l o u d.
