Def Leppard - Ellen DeGeneres Show - Hysteria

[galatea0]

God, Joe, go back to your Adrenalize hair; you were so bloody hot then!

[MrTokken88]

Man they suck without Steve Clark. 

[1FineYoungCannibal]

The chord progression is the escense of this song, but Viv's guitar was drowned out by Phils louder guitar.

Classic example of the pecking order within a group getting in the way of the music.

[Bansheeeyes78]

They've not lost a thing. That album defined an end to an awesome decade. Classic to say the least.

[LovebitesU]

Thats a terrible mix (probably the TV guy) but Leppard carried it off really well. True Legends of time and space

[LoveHopelessly]

The six people who disliked this video obviously have a poor taste in music.

[teasdale777]

im pretty sure joe had a throat infection around this time, so thats why he doesnt sound his best. still awesome though!

[TaySwiftVidz]

@teasdale777 Yeah that's why at the end Ellen goes "stay away from me!" to Joe as she's hugging them lol.

[gfgranja]

The Rock N' Roll in the band was Steve Clark...

[JetFireROCKS1]

I used to love this song... and i still do love it, the Steve version that is. they don't sound as good with Vivian  rather than Steve

[erpvb]

is it me or did they turned a bit retarded after steve died ?

[cliffthelightning]

@erpvb No i think that too.... they've gone stale

[ritter89]

@erpvb A bit? They became cheesy ballad makers after he died, completely irrelevant. They started out with such promise being a teenage band with fully developed sound and then had a good run of 3 more albums. I stopped paying attention to them after the late 80s/early 90s. They're on par with Phil Collins at this point. Nostalgia band

[dxvolt]

how can you dislike any video by this awesome band?

[HouseOfAnubis1994]

6 people are loosers!

[bodyweapons1]

The only Hard Rock band that could actually sing!...nobody sings anymore...Leppards music is timeless!!!...,you can listen to this in another 30 years and still like it!!!...that's why their the Best!!!!

[Dreamcatcher156]

You can never get 'tired' of listening to Leppard, especially when you are/where part of that Generation that put them where they are now, & am DAMN PROUD to be in the Class of '86 that rocked the Lepps & down the hallways of our High School every day & every chance we got!!! Hell YESSSSS!!!!!!

[TheBeatlefloyd]

i can never get tired of this song, i bet lately i've listened to it every other day, i'm getting obsessed with these guys

[DHEMITZ]

One of the best song ever made.....

[cliffthelightning]

Leppard rules...but coming on this show and doeing songs wth taylor swift sucks

[ahorwood]

I must have heard this song a thousand times. When the album came out I had it on tape and used to listen to it all day on my Walkman (remember them?). Then I went to Abu Dhabi and used to have the CD installed in my Jeep. You would think I would be bored of it by now, but apparently not.

[whaduzitmatr]

@ahorwood Oh yes I remember Walkmans really well, There is no way to ever get bored of Def Leppard. I don't know how my On Through the Night and High N Dry tapes haven't disintgrated yet from playing them in my car so much over the years.

[Warthogfan]

@ahorwood I had a walkman too and I never went anywhere without it, it was my best friend. I actually wore this tape out, I played it that much. Upgraded to a cd player shortly there after. Hysteria was the second cd I bought after Dr.Feelgood. 80s rock and metal was and always will be the best music ever!

[luigisvdo1977]

@Warthogfan You're so damn right...

[scarletto29]

@ahorwood I don't think I could get tired of them- went through so many tapes it's not even funny! Thank God for my Ipod- now have almost every song they've done on it! Hysteria is still my favorite though!

[57truckz]

@ahorwood I have listened to Hyteria the cd thousands of times (hysteria is my fav song) and every time I play the cd it s like I am hearing it for the first time,,,,I think that says something about the music,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,De­f Leppard Foreverrrrrr!!!!!

[usscatcory4169]

@ahorwood

I FOUND MY WALKMAN WHEN I WAS DECLUTTERING MY CLOSET......THE DARN THING STILL WORKS.....ITS AMAZING........ITS BIG AND BULKY BUT IT WAS THE IN THING BACK THEN........THERE IS IPODS AND MP3 PLAYERS WHICH HOLD ALOT MORE MUSIC THAN EVER........

[krisaf778]

@ahorwood im 18 and when i was 13 i got a walkman. then cd player. now mp3 player

[whaduzitmatr]

@krisaf778 What part of the country do you live in fella? If you are 18 now then you would have been 13 in 2006 and by then no one at my school had a portable CD player anymore, a cassette walkman hasn't been popular with teenagers since the early 90s.

[krisaf778]

@whaduzitmatr michigan. but my family was a little short on money at the time. and i had all cassettes from my mom when she was a kid.

[iasparro]

@whaduzitmatr hahahaha i had a walk men back in like 96 dude

[3ace13]

Sav looks real old in this vid. like he like 50-55 almost and Phil looks like he still in his 40s

[scarred2112]

@3ace13 Sav's never *100%* recovered from his case of Bell's Palsy in the mid-'90s, which partially paralyzed the facial muscles and makes him look older because of the lack of movement in some areas of his face.

...and Phil, hell: he's *52* but looks like he's in his mid-30s! I'm 34, eat decently and work out a good amount and have NEVER looked anything close to him. Don't know why I bother... ;-)

[Barrigaw]

Def Leppard Rocks!!!!!!!!

[tyrannosaurusinf14]

i still don't understand how even after losing steve clark and rick allen losing an arm they still managed to become the greatest band in the history of our species...

[57truckz]

@tyrannosaurusinf14 Damnnnnn I so agreeeeeee,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[MonicaSavage14]

they are the best!!! :)

[cheapseats12]

Gotta give Joe big koodos for toughing it out through his repiratory problems!

[hrdrokkr]

repiratory?

[cheapseats12]

@hrdrokkr yes repiratory! Didn't you pay attention in health class? That's somethin they learnt me in school! Only took me 3 years to pass!

[WRINGORAINTREE]

That's BS that they had to shorten the song just for TV .....

What a croc.......

[jhavyncho]

amazing.........this band is great.....

[MRMIdAS2k]

there new album is awesome and this shows they still have what it takes

[YearraeY]

he became a fatty wow.

but still nice.

[WRINGORAINTREE]

Fatty ? explain your lame ass comment

YY ..... That is not Meat Loaf on stage !!!

[kdatcs]

i love def leppard but i HATED their latest album, it was completely different and only had 1 good song on it.

[TheHillDirector]

what's wrong with trying something different and growing as musicians? they aren't doing this to be the same band every album?

[getodachoppa1]

This gave me goosebumps... amazing.

[musicfancier]

Listen people i was just saying to myself how awesome they sound- in fact i even said to myself" "i wonder if Joe quit smoking?"- and that is my unbiased opinion-so all of u haters can just---------------------

[frumsgidonsjab]

Joe quit smokin back in 2005 i think

[musicfancier]

Wow. I was saying the same thing to myself again today as I watched more concert footage-awesome- see, u hit 50 something, u mature, u quit smoking, quit drinking, get a personal trainer, become a vegetarian!- Yes! u do what u need to do!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!DEF LEPPARD ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cheapseats12]

actually I think is more 2002/2003 during the X period, but I could be wrong!

[frumsgidonsjab]

I've got an interview with them (From the special edition of YEAH! if i dont missremember). He says that 2005 was his first "smoke free" year :)

[cheapseats12]

Ok then maybe I heard that he started to try quiting a couple years earlier! Thanks for the info!

[xbonjovifan94]

can i just tell you how cool you are insulting one of the best fucking rock bands in the world...

im sure your career is sky rocketing to the top

[Megaboredkid]

they rock. it dosen't matter how they look it's how they play

this is never gonna become shopping mall music ever def leppard is coming back and your just gonna have to deal with it

[Aneudiper7]

i like def leppard.. but joe's voice is not too good anymore =/

[leppsrule2]

pav, joe elliott had severe bronchitis when this was shot, at least he didn't cancel. but he was very sick. gotta cut them some slack there dude!!

[JOEELLIOTTSWOMAN]

joeeeee!!!!!!!!!

[Familyguyaddict01]

Hmm Ellen invites pretty much rock bands/ rock stars..

[digbycurrents]

I live on the outskirts of Sheffield. I'm going to Steve Clark's grave tomorrow. I just want to pay my respect. Great band!

[pavlik7733]

i liked Def......but tnis is SHIT!!!!

[silverwater006]

mate Joe was SICK .. and i mean REALLY SICK .. show a lil consideration

[grahamblood]

Steel City's finest!

[JoeElliot1994]

See them in Toronto July 4th so stoked!! Love these guys!!!!!!!

[inssanitykills]

[defleppard0717]

[ecuecuy0]

[lotsofguitars89]

[4kryssy5]

Awesome performance Def Leppard !!! I wish you guys come back to Newfoundland, Canada- You are huge here !!!

[IrishN00B]

Great performance!

Please Def Leppard, schedule a show in Sweden soon! I've got to see you live before I go crazy!

[bagrat22]

[greekchikinaustralia]

yay, this was posted on my b'day!!

[tamadrummer20]

this was posted on my birthday too lmao! :)

[ILOVEGNR15]

awesome as always

[defleppfan4ever]

they skipped one verse

[enchantress7]

Sounds like you got some issues about your own sexuality. Maybe you ought look into that!! Def Leppard and Ellen both rock!!!

[034gwizard]

welcome to the Ellen Fag show!With my special guest Fag Leppard!!!IT'S SO EMOTIONAL!!!

[cheapseats12]

Welcome to the fag edition of Youtube! With special guest Fag 034gwizard!

[skidrow75]

sounds like you're the real FAG!!!

Calling Ellen a fag is fine but Leppard--no!

That's drawing the line MOTHERFUCKER!!

[calicom110]

@skidrow75 "hahahaha lol calling ellen a fag is fine but Leppard NO!!" Hhahahahah

but yeah ellen = fag and def leppard = AWESOME (straight guys)

[lameguy1123]

lol he's just faggin himself for faggin' the leppards.... well he's a jeoulous fag with no life

[JoeElliot1994]

Joe is so cute!! I am so glad he is growing his hair it looks hot long!! Sav looks so different blond but still hot nevertheless!

[greekchikinaustralia]

damn straight he looks hot with long hair, i wish sav would grow his back.

[HHGary]

Joe's voice wasn't in tip top shape on this one. Sounds like he was sick and trying to tough it out.

[91kient]

thats because joe was sick. you see at the end of the performance wen ellen goes over to say well done, that she says to Joe: "STAY AWAY FROM ME haha"

he was sick, this was the first performance Joe did after they cancelled 3 shows because of a throat infection. I think he did well though.

[tugger449]

wow im only 14 and i know more bout defleppard

[Dream2112]

God bless you and bless the fact you listen to Rock (Real music) and not that hideous Hip Hop

[SuperstarX]

this performance was not so The Hit.

[Treaty4]

Ellen is not worthy to be on the same stage with this musical genius. And she can only hope to ever attain to the fame Def Leppard has. She would have been fortunate to catch Joe's cold.

[szymano]

Stupid woman :)

She's not worthy to clean Joe's shoes...

She shouldn't say that...

[gjasr]

And what do they mean... When you get that feelin and you start relieving??

[whaduzitmatr]

"when you get that feeling, better start believing"

[gjasr]

Did;nt they save any of the money from the 1980's? Come on guys, let Steve rest in peace.

[Dream2112]

Steve, FYI, is resting in peace. Carrying Steve's legacy and not letting Def Leppard die, that is the best way to honor him.

[Crackerzz99]

So well put and true.

[Collen82]

VI AMO!!!

[ameyngambi]

Did ellen just tell joe to stay away from her... wow..!! 3:33

[kristabel71]

Only b/c Joe was pretty sick at the time.

[DankaNY]

She said to Joe, "stay away from me," cos Joe was sick at that time, not cos she hates him. Cheers!!!

[toothmaker22000]

fuck ellen degenerate.......goofy bitch

[KingOfTheCrease1]

Okay?

[loveofmusic59]

Love Def Leppard!

[15scottie]

Ellens lover should be very concerned with joe?????? Joe will hit that!!!!!!!!!!!!

[annddrrei]

chubby or not, joe is as sexy as he's ever been. You know, like a fine wine...Better with age!!!

[Aneudiper7]

joe's a little on the chubby side, isnt he? lol

[jennasara]

My sister said it sucked.... dammit

[kotzensue]

Great band!

[PadawanOsswe]

was this still while joe had a throat infection?

[sean2147]

yeh. this was the first live performance since his throat problem. He did a good job considering he went back on stage earlier than what the doctors told him to. Good on ya Joe!!!

[zoelovessax]

THank you for posting this, the president ruined my morning!

[cheapseats12]

I just wish they'd let them play the whole song!

[defleppchik8907]

gosh...they're so.....whats the word im lookin for? ah yes! PERFECT!

[nautigirl123]

fin AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!THANKS
