My Brother and I wore this tape out in the summer of 1990 it was the soundtrack of our summer...it brings back some GREAT memories.My brother and I were both coming of age,sneaking out of the house to go meet our friends after hours and hang out doing all kinds of teen age stuff.If I close my eyes when I hear this song I can actually see those days again!
This is a great album, great variety in the chunes, both the music and the subject matter, but they stood together really well. Sounds as good today as 20 years ago. Monroe is one of the most underrated of his generation.
Whatever happened to the days of songs like this one? Entertainers and politicians used to reject the people he is singing about, now they bow to them. I dont understand how we became so blinded.
the 80s was a good time over all... just imagine SUNSET STRIP, THE TROUBADOR, GO GO WHISKEY during the years 1985-1989. too many bands ...toooo maaany.
yep. and when hanoi rocks stop making music, guns and roses start making music. but then hanoi rocks make comeback and they make music to gether. i like gnr but hanoi rocks is sooo much better!! sorry my bad english
hey, your English is fine, i saw Hanoi for the 1st time in 1984 in Glasgow, and the last time 3 wks ago in Birmingham, i agree with most of what you guys said.
I have to say one thing,if rubbish like Poison and Warrant got 'big', i still scratch my head why Hanoi were not SUPERSTARS?
But that's positive because the more commercial a band is, the more corrupted will their music be. It will just sound like everything else and is only produced to be sold and popular as much as i can. putting the creativeness of the band behind.
Theres no era in music that will ever come close to it's equal in my eyes
So many are eager to write the whole generation off .Why? Because it was fun and ppl didn't run around in cruddy flannels w/ bad hair?
Well, f*ck us for being happy bastards!
How dare we, eh? hehe The 80's RULED!. If music ever comes close to being as cool again, I've got my leather bustier, fringed Bon Jovi Jacket, and acid washed jeans ala Joe E. in the back of the closet and I'm not afraid to use them!
fucking greattt soooooonnnggg and lirycs , why can the world listen to this song, we can't let the beast beat us!!! we'll have to make the ends meet!!!
i love this song, does anyone know how to play this song it's either a half strp Or whole stap lower i think it's in the key Of D please if anyone has the tabs e-mail them to me Or a website that has it let me know
Hey im thinking about buying one of Michael Monroe's solo records but not sure which one. "Not Fakin' it" sounds like a good pick, but does anyone else have any ideas?
I am a huge 80's rock fan, but this guy along with HANOI ROCKS, by far are the best. Really reminds me of Axl Rose. I wonder who came first. ha ha Someone always has an influence.
The song is AWESOME, he ROCKS, his old band Hanoi Rocks is AMAZING, but Michael's strut reminds me why I don't commit suicide. Thank you for posting this, he is sooooo gorgeous! He kind of reminds me if Mick Jagger, but not in this video. Watch other ones and you'll see what I'm talking about.
Sooo very chuffed to find this at last! I once had it on video- originaly taped it from noisey mothers, ch4 rock progam 8 years ago. Accidently taped over it soon afterwards. been searchin frantically for it ever since. x
Juhuu !!! Tulin tänne huhuilemaan,että oisko kellään laittaa tänne pätkää,jossa Mike oli vieraana Maria Maria (YLE2) ohjelmassa? (Jari Sarasvuon kanssa...)
Once I Discovered you tube I looked up this song i hadnt heard in years and it still sounds as great as it was way back then ,, thanks for posting this vid ,, great song
i was searching for a different monroe & come upon your vid. started watching b/c of vietnam opening. then i heard the song - wow - thanks for making me a new found fan of michael monroe - great song - singer & vid.
i don't know - we were supposed to make this a better world for our children & our children's children. but screwed it up even more both domestically and internationally. i'm sorry we should have done better.
Another great track from a truly underrated album.If anyone has a clip for the song Smokescreen you should post it ,i'd really like to see it,fantastic song!
One of my favorite Monroe songs.

Maybe they weren't that commercial?
But that's positive because the more commercial a band is, the more corrupted will their music be. It will just sound like everything else and is only produced to be sold and popular as much as i can. putting the creativeness of the band behind.
