[skrewflanders]

[morosemoose]

Tough Guys!

[ajb33460]

LOVE this song. And Rod Steiger is awesome as the lead singer.

[JayAdlerComment]

I remember watching the Thunderbirds on VH1 till the cows came home. There was an additional video of there's that was very successful.

[AvEryBadApPLe]

They just don't make it like this anymore.

[wmarkdyer]

That's still a pretty good video.

[hldguitarist]

Seven people aren't 'Tuff 'Enuff. Haha XP

[excommando1]

The gal with the orange shirt is my dream girl.

[sparkplug989]

@excommando1

she is old now

[DodgeMan360]

@sparkplug989 could be a MILF

[jdymes101]

some of those broads had nice asses for 80's chicks

[therealraybaby]

#600

[franktib]

0:22 for the haters

[franktib]

hard ass drumset

[keithdumbass]

The Bad ass The Fabulous Thunderbirds!!!!!!

[OFFENDERRUEB]

AL BUNDY FOR PRESIDENT

[gkohlberge]

ahhhh, the '80's

[jakfuki]

There's my Jimmy Vaughn edition Strat making yet another appearance in yet another T-birds video.

[vgmc7650]

Saw them also on Austin City Limits in the 1987-88 season. Same reaction as below; liked Tuff Enough and How Do You Spell Love, but wasn't much enthused with the rest. Not many Country/Blues tunes I'm really into.

[vgmc7650]

This song and Wrap It Up, How Do You Spell Love?, and Powerful Stuff were kind-of unusual hits for this band. I'm really not into blues; I bought the LP in 1987 for the title track and maybe Wrap It Up, but because I'm more into rock/pop, I really didn't care much for the rest of the album (blues/country) and have listened to the other songs on the Tuff Enuff LP exactly once, if that.

[Azzaro]

I have a near-mint LP of GIRLS GO WILD for sale..$75..

[MrMichaelMyers99]

oops its KLAUS the fish my bad. He loves the Fab T's yeah

[MrMichaelMyers99]

Claus the fish gives fins up!

[CanesFan680]

7 people weren't Tuff Enuff.

[queenship7]

He looks just like my dad..and when my da, a singer, saw this, did a tougher version of it

[fanglethorpe]

AL BUNDY ahahaha

[leslie0965]

The 80's rule forever, this is a classic song! Too bad we cant' bring the 80's back, what an era!

[JayAdlerComment]

I do not now why radio killed the video king(Is that right?) but I loved these VH1 videos. The fabulous Thunderbirds were visually and creatively the max.

[gamerlives2]

steve flipped the fuck out in that episode!

[DJTNTable]

american power!!!

[Gootothesecond]

This is a great song but kinda pointless, the fact that he can wear a beret and a red suit without getting his ass kicked proves how tough he is. Didn't really need to sing it. :-D

[mrt57rn]

@Gootothesecond He's not singing about himself, he's singing 4 every hard working, blue collar man out there....unfortunately, there's not anywhere near the amount of them left as b4 the 80s.

[Gootothesecond]

@mrt57rn Heard that, no need for all the bail outs or whatever. They bring jobs back to this country, it'd be on top again, no doubt.

[TkrB]

Pause at 2:09. You're welcome.

[tkeezy1]

this is the stupidest fuckin song ever

[lifebdrop1]

@tkeezy1 you prob think the Thong Song is epic.... asshole

[LuzziTennis]

2:35 - 2:38 - that's how pallbearers should carry a coffin. Would make the mourners laugh, lighten the whole burial process.

[ElvIsEverywhere]

He's hard as his brother!!!! (SRV)

[EricWilke1141987]

Al Bundy would love this song.

[keithdumbass]

the coolest band ever The fabulous Thunderbirds!!!!!! shit yea

[christopherdon]

Jimmy Vaughan is cool.

[HammerOfTheSun]

The bass at :37 sounds almost like "Born Under a Bad Sign".

[stantonman420]

These girls are welcome at my jobsite anyday!

[TheWJBlake]

I work 60 hours a week at twenty five dollars per hour yea that should be my song haha ;)

[inusq192009]

Killer song, the video is oustanding.

[banjotune22]

Food trucks with slutty women are awesome.

[PoliteTia]

How scanky is that red head! Her body is BANGING!!!! Jealous :-)

[wulfgarbeorngar]

240p, we meet again.

[HarvestHollow]

@wulfgarbeorngar For some reason, I laughed my ass off at that.

[midgetgirl5]

god why doesn't this video have 10 million hits on it???

[gewglesux]

I remember when they used to spin this on MTV.. Kim is a great Harp player....

[MrStratoManu]

:D Rolisima... 

[n8tureboy]

Women working with metal and fire makes me hot!

[uzipinkyring]

[daffern2good]

[aimeemannfan2010]

[aimeemannfan2010]

[nfilpula]

[Gecko7291971]

That chick behind Jimmie @ 2:54 looked like she learned how to dance from Micheal Jackson

[ctuforwin]

80's RULES FOLKS :P

[mrt57rn]

@ctuforwin Only some of it, my friend......

[ClanChattan14]

[stuvo1977]

[banjotune22]

Taco truck sluts! Fucking genius!

[mornay77]

0:22 Fuck you too buddy

[mykulbee]

Snack truck 'Pinky' is Chita Rivera...right? Yes, I think so....SOME BABE!

[omivaun]

1 guy wasn't tough enough.

[The5150Clown]

@omivaun My guess was that person parents were not tough enough

[MrMikeb1958]

@omivaun Looks like 7 now are not tough enough and are wimps.

[arpedonaptisproduct]

aaaah nice song very powerfool only for tough people

[chefsean31]

One of my theme songs totally badass fuck this lady gaga,american idol shit

[saracomm]

Mmmmmm I Love the Girls near the end of the Video - Doing the Crab Dance

[420JonesZ]

Must be some great puss for him to wrestle a lion and a grizzly bear, and not care.

[frantictrader]

Went to a St. Jude's Hospital fundraiser in Boston in 1995 and I was shocked when the Fabulous Thunderbirds showed up to play . My wife and I were the only ones dancing since we were the only ones there who were under 30.

[tommieparch]

when he walks round the corner in the red suit & black hat with the the posse behind him, then the redhead falls for him.( but he dont give a fuck) so he leans on the wall. thats a damn good part of this otherwise silly video, . great tune tho.

[doughesson]

@tommieparch Well,she probably greets all her customers that way.Whatever it takes to get them to buy more.

[tommieparch]

@doughesson i didnt realize what she was sellin, till i read ur comment..lol... tommy

[wyleehokie]

Right now, out there, is at least one person who is obviously NOT "Tuff Enuff". What a shame

[Insectionx]

WOW I love this band oh and the girls are alright too 

[trishalovesHIM]

remembering the Louisville concert w/TFT and Bob Seger in 1980's AWESOME!!!!!

[KOHF34]

1 person is a stickboy.

[arthriticMamm0]

...OMG he looks like Larry...hat and all !!

he even plays & sings like Larry...

[arthriticMamm0]

...OMG he looks like Larry...hat and all !!

[luckyfess]

Lol tuff enuuuuffffffff.......bitch

[SuperAnnuatedDoodle]

This was great in the film Gung Ho, the autoworkers were working to this song, then suddenly the supervisor turns off the radio, "No music, no cigar, just work!" they change their minds later though.

[culleky07]

This should be the theme song for WWE Tough Enough.

[pikeg1]

@culleky07 I totally agree. In fact, that's why I looked for the video...after seeing an ad for the show. Why the hell ISN'T it the theme song?!

[pikeg1]

@culleky07 I totally agree. In fact, that's why I looked for the video...after seeing an ad for the show. Why the hell ISN'T it the theme song?!

[Shotoshorinryuchun]

*sings* H. R. Puff 'N' Stuuuuf. H. R. Puff 'N' Stuuuuuuf!

[bekahjoy612]

mom jeans turned into shorts

[LALMCGatorsfan]

1 person is an idiot

[mornay77]

All the broads are pretty hot- but the redhead? erm..i dunno bout that face. She looks like the might be the mother of the other girls :/

[pabletelli]

1 Person shit his pants lintening to this song

[CaptainJetJakal]

This is Al Bundy's theme song when he aims to greatness.

[wtcvidman]

@CaptainJetJakal

I remember Tuff Enough played in the episode where he was training in the basement. I'm pretty sure it also played in the Mr. Empty Pants episode when he was modeling with those girls.

[PowerAndControI]

0 dislikes?? AMAZING

[johncb1963]

The coolest song by the coolest dudes ever! Love the video!

[slapjax28]

nice song

[JDamanYT]

Like this comment if you heard this because Roger referred it on "American Dad!".

Stay Cool.

[MartyMo88]

I agree, ALL they should be wearing are safety goggles!!

[Halpin2006]

One of the best blue-collar songs ever written. Too bad the Fab TBirds were major alcohlics! These guys were wasted more than Aerosmith ever was.

[jesseman455]

@Halpin2006 gotta be tough when you're stevie ray vaughn's brother.

[romeonarcizo]

What a great song!!! I love the 50's style of the song!!!

[shellshok1968]

these guys look really bored in this video, kinda like 'is this over yet? im hungry and need a beer'

this is such a good song, i am surprised it hasnt been covered.

[cooktree]

Great song, HORRIBLE VIDEO!

[Madmark4488]

@cooktree

Horrible Video???? WTH????

Are you freaking nuts??

Excellent song, HOT construction girls.

What's not to love??

MadMark

[cooktree]

@Madmark4488 Sorry M-Mark, the cheese factor is higher in this than many from it's time. Very one dimensional for many reasons; I'd have rather they concentrated on the band instead of the exercise moves.

This could have been epic, in all ways. Truly.

[JASONSPAZ]

Got up early this morning with a kind of tingling in my hand and had a deep penetrating feeling for some clay O yeah.

. Went down to the river bed where the sands are made of clay reached on down and started kneeding a ball in my hand

Ain't that palpable enough,

Ain't that palpable enough

Ain't that palpable enough

[lea3364]

I used to dance to this when a stripper 20 years ago!

[judyneric]

@lea3364  let's see what ya still got!

[lea3364]

@lea3364

judyneric, I'm 40 and a little tubby now.

I'm sure everyone would be offended if I were to attempt any of the old moves!

[vanhoosiera]

Does ANYONE know who the redhead is?? Wowza!

[dambreaker]

the redhead's name is Sugar Bouche.

[TXAXEISTA]

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO in Houston downtown they used to play on Thursday nights at Party on the Plaza! Gotta love the blues

[griffithlistener]

my old man used to always play this record on saturdays..clean up was blues hour .

[SDSOverfiend]

@griffithlistener real talk!!! My Dad use to go ham when this jam came on. He always played the record when he was cleaning up the house. I got my Ass whipped mixing this record up when i was little lol!!

[doughesson]

I couldn't be a picker in this video.I'd be flubbing notes right and left checking out the women.

[Danielmutt]

2:51 to 2:57; OMG. If I could choose how to die. I would have that dancer wrap her legs around me and then snap my back in two!!!

[movrinoscopy]

cool

[GoodslowLonghead]

I didn't know Kevin James was in The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

[TheBigManM]

WHEN WUZ DIS SONG MADE?

[doughesson]

@TheBigManM April or May of 1986.That's when I first saw the video. I don't think them outfits the dancers are wearing are OSHA approved,either.They're gonna have to take them off.

[donjuandonjuan]

@doughesson Hell osha approved or not I, like there gear woooo hehe :D

[uofm97]

@donjuandonjuan If I were an inspector, I would still approve! lol

[Gecko7291971]

@doughesson Well, you noticed the redhead was the only one wearing long pants, especially considering she was using a cutting torch in one part of this video

[1234bassgod]

@TheBigManM  The self titled album was released in 1986.

[TheVolFan1]

@TheBigManM

I Think it was @ 1984-85.

[n8tureboy]

This band can rock and those girls, well let's just say that they know how to move!

Mercy...!

[atlanta4950]

The Fabulous Thunderbirds

"Tuff Enuff"

Tuff Enuff

1986

[buddyguy88]

Yes this is a cheesy video as were many back then. Great song and band though. Wish Jimmie was still with them. One of my alltime fav guitarists!

[jeffmunger]

I'd like to stuff that muff.

[PhilipQsongwriter1]

The anticipation build at the beginning of the video is great! It's cool throughout great of it's kind.

[TheSkiingGuru]

Extremely cheesy and dated video, but great song. Love the Danelectro six string at the beginning too.

[aimeemannfan2010]

Awesome song and band. Thanks for posting it.

[Harpmann]

Oh, yeah! Old chart hit by the T-birds
