Steve Taylor - On The Fritz

[mattkeegan1]

I miss Steve Taylor! I want some fresh stuff, but I must admit his stuff from the 1980s is timeless.

[0hglory]

yes! i totally remember that suit! i'd rock it today!

[TeleDan]

Man, where can I get one of those jackets?!

[numoneuncfan]

This song rocked my world for the good and it still has deep meaning!

[ral1334]

Love the Bowie hair and dramatic choreography! This was my favorite song as a kid growing up fundie.

I was a bit disappointed when he later did a more updated "90's sounding" version. It didn't match up at all.

[Stratboy999]

I saw this show and I still think it stacks up pretty well. Let's face it Christian music is 95%maybe 96% pap, but Steve was a true class performer and it's great to see this again. Thanks for posting.

[Folk5]

You clearly haven't listened to Christian music in a LONG time...

[runotit]

you have to consider the times...lol, steve taylor was the man, come on folk5!!!

[mattwatrous]

Wow. Steve Taylor was my first exposure to music. My parents even had this video.

Without him, I dont think I'd be the person I am today.

[aerycksmusic]

....what a great album!

[UnendingSpace]

I have this record...

[UnendingSpace]

holy cow... This guy is my cousin...

[Sasquatch521]

Is he still making songs?

[aderier]

sadly no he is not, at least not that are being released. he mostly makes movies and music videos these days...

[redrose4Jesus]

last I knew he wrote songs for the Newsboys.

[johnnyarockalypse]

@redrose4Jesus he is directing movies now... he first feature file, The Second Chance, stars Michael W. Smith... he has also written a couple songs for Veggie Tales

[vindarm]

Is this whole concert recorded on tape?

[TeensAreNotChildren]

THIS SONG COULD BE ABOUT BARAK OBAMA

He wished to right the wrongs

He sang religious songs

He kept the private he

under lock and key

I REALLY LIKED BARAK OBAMA (and voted for him) UNTIL I DISCOVERED HE ATTENDED AN ANTI-WHITE CHURCH FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS. THAT'S NOT GOD'S MESSAGE - GOD IS COLOR BLIND.

I hate racism - we're all the same species - we are all one.

[Gflwr]

Barak Obama is not just a compromiser, he is part of a lager societal organization that is in rebellion of God's laws like they always have been. Presidents, Ceos, Pastors proffessing Christianity is the only way they can get their plans to work aka; 'under the table'.

My name's Marcos. I'm from Brazil. I lived in the USA for 7 years. During this time the LORD JESUS blessed me so much with incredible concerts of terrific Christian singers and bands. Steve Taylor was one of them! I thank GOD for ministries such as Steve Taylor's. GOD bless you, Steve! GOD bless all you my dear American brothers and sisters in Christ JESUS! ENJOY GOD's music!

[beardedbard]

Thanks! Hey, I've met a couple Brazilians lately, and it seems like the Christians down there are doing pretty well. It's so great to hear about God doing great things all over the world! :)

[tkdmom35]

I loved seeing these old Steve Taylor videos...I saw him in concert in his On the Fritz Tour with Sheila Walsh. This song really hits home with the scandal going on here in tulsa, ok at ORU. It's funny, because I have been a fan for over 25 years and now my 10 year old son is a huge fan.

[mradkins]

Hey Bartolemeo, I think the guitarist was Jeff Stone.

[Mamimimicita]

i have to say over and over again steve taylor is amazing now and always.

[bartolemeo]

Thanks for posting this great stuff! ;) who was his guitarist back then? The band was terrific.

[watsonnaturals]

Made a sandwich board for this as a small child in order to win tickets...saw the show anyway! I was a regular at Cornerstone, as well. Got several pics and autographs with him 1984-1994. Thanks for the Steve Taylor!

[ThelmaK42]

What A GREAT Memory! Saw him at the ICHTHUS Festival in the late 80's! Got to meet him and got a pic with him! He Is WONDERFUL!!

[hayseedsings]

The first time I saw him live was about this same time. It was at TPAC in Nashville during GMA week prior to the Dove Awards. He electrified the audience. He has been consistently artistic, entertaining, personable, humble, and godly.

[bhiggs52]

My favorite S.Taylor video!

[jylaspie]

Someone PLEASE post the newer version of this. Wasn't there a video with a monkey on a guy's back or am I imagining it??

[Rawk4Life]

No, you're right. I saw that video when it premiered on Fish TV. It was a concept music video set to the Liver version of On The Fritz, and it was heavier.

[Zarbod]

Steve Rocks.

[kazbianco]

This is great!! I loved Steve Taylor for his edgy lyrics, and 80's style

[rayh007]

Woo Hoo! My Christian Artist 80's hero!! Wow, do i have a sudden wave of nostalgia!! (His lyrics are still as pointed today!)

[rangermarc]

Stevewas the best! I wore this cassette out (That's right...I said CASSETTE!)I wanted a suit like he wore on this video SO BAD!

[kilpatja]

Thanks for adding!

[3Nails1Cross4Given]

Great video!!! Thanks for sharing.

[Starshadowpics]

I went to his concert when I was a teen. It was a blast. He had a trampoline on the stage to jump off of from time to time. Great way to use you ADD. I wasn't surprise to see his name on the credits of a News Boys video. I wonder what he's up to now.  I hope he is still living his testamony. God speed Steve!

[rangermarc]

Steve is still working with the Newsboys. He workedd on their latest CD 'GO'. Check out the movie he made last year with Michael W Smith "Second Chance". It's awesome!

[crispycrunchy]

Hey dumbass, it's called a fad. In 20 years people will say the same thing about the things you were wearing.

[twilightki]

What the fuck is he wearing? The 80's sucked so much ass....

[jimboya]

yay! Steve Taylor!

My favorite 80s Christian rock guy.

I had this video tape back in the day.

great to see it again.

[dreamer1215]

I still have the VHS tape - I'm thinking of diggin it out & watching it again! Steve was SOOOO not my style of music,(I'm mor rock) but I LOVED him!
