  • Rest in peace Jani Lane.

  • WarrantGirl27 yeah you're right, girl, you were his loving fan to the end, and God bless you for that; I saw this show, as well as a good friend (Army, yeah!) stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma (where the buffalo still roam, and Mt. Scott is still a beautiful motherfucker to jog up, yeah!) RIP Jani, we love you, and pine for the glam years, when America was still great!

  • We will miss jani lane but the best thing i have is going to the concert and hering all these songs live :). Standing there in the crowd watching you sing i saw red was something i will never forget thank you :)

  • You'll be greatly missed, Jani

  • he's jz simply one of the great lead singers, among others, in the metal world.. RIP jani lane..

  • I just tend to laugh at people who like to hate. I mean really. Jani wrote 6 top 20 billboard hits and had 3 albums get into the top 20... I am a guitar player, i write songs, i'm in bands... i would love to have that track record. I Also don't get who get to decide what "ART" it? Art is something that moves you, and it's obvious that Jani and his talents has moved millions of people. and that is all that matters.

  • jani lane sucks dick! 

  • @metalkrush77 But only when he needs meth money.

  • you guys are really cruel.. jani was an amazing person =/ he shouldn't be talked about like that... i can't believe how cruel you guys are.. it would be ilarious eally if some one talking crap about you when you died, i'd be laughing until i cried, he deserves a whole LOTTA' respect, you guys couldn't even come up with some of the songs that jani has, i bet you guys couldn't sing or even PLAY like he does, he's amazing. r.i.p. man...

    but really... guys grow up

    my respect to janis family <3

  • RIP Jani

  • I just keep playing the Youtube Ad over and over so i wont have to watch this gay band

  • Comment removed

  • JANE LANE..TIENES UNA HERMOSA VOZ..I LOVE YOU

  • Jani rules, awesome singer/writer,

  • He's got those i smoke weed bags under his eyes!

  • I don't think Jani looks that bad really for 20 years on, considering how hard he went in the 80's.

  • @bigmaxy07 Good point, excesses of the Rock and Roll lifestyle are unhealthy indeed, they rarley live past 50. That Night Train called Rock n Roll is a hard train to stay alive on for too long. I guess you will always have your walking dead like, The Stones or Rod Stewart or Arowsmith. There train wrecked long ago but they go on....train wrecked.

  • But he looks like Gabriel Batistuta, argentinian super star football player from near past.Both of him are best, one is amazing singer in amazing band, other is amazing football player in amazing teams.

  • I have not seen him in years (since the 90's). I use to think he was soooo cute when he did his wink. He looks better than Tori Spelling. He looks older but don't we all. He still looks hot.

  • jani lane is the best front man warrant has ever had!

  • FUCK WARRANT !! THEY SUCK!!!

  • @crungen5 Fuck U!! U SUCK!

  • i wish i could be there lol i LOVE Warrant!!

  • Jani Lane looked like Troy Aikman from the Dallas Cowboys in this video!

  • Uhhh his performance at 2008 Rocklahoma was great. Were you there? No, you weren't. Were you aware there was a weather disaster that was a near hurricane? That collapsed both side stages, threatened the main stage, and wiped out almost all the tents - just before Lita Ford was to come on? Warrant didn't even go on 'till over 2 hours after time scheduled, and went on with just 60% of a sound system; the storm blew out about half of it. Jani's show in Vegas, 7 days earlier was the problem

  • Jani is a good guy!!

  • Omg his change is amazinggg

    now is toooooooooooo oldddd agagagaga

    :S amazing

  • @smitraga So, if he looked younger you'd think the music he sings is better (like his solo CD Back Down To One), and give it more of a chance. Yeah showing your maturity {less than 0}

  • I feel the need to come back and say (even though the man's life is in a lot of trouble at the moment) that this man is about 500x more talented than 'Lady Gaga' ... particularly in the songwriting and singing department » not related to that right now she's having her "day" and once upon a time he had his.

  • Wow John, you should have stayed behind the drum-kit in Dorian Grey........

  • ...The Lanemeister!

  • All people care about anymore is how you look!

    It's important to a degree, but if you aren't looking like a fuck-fantasy none give a shit!!!

    There is no more actual talent involved in anything today, it is all machine-made and pressed out!!!

    People like "Kid" rock make me wanna' go postal!!!

  • Jani Lane looks like crap!!! what the heck is wrong with him?

  • Boy has Jani not aged well. I met him at TAverns in Milwaukee, WI after they opened up for Motely Crue...he was so damn hot in person...but I guess we all get old don't we.

  • @MarciaSmart back then they wore it all .......and looked good too! ;)

  • XYZ: Letter To God - one of the very best CDs I own

  • Oh, please ... yes I'm a guy but he was never 'sooo fine'; Kip Winger was way better looking .. Jani was a pretty boy (that was the popular type of frontman, at the time, sans Jeff Keith) .. and still is, but with a bloaty face, from years of alcohol abuse ... Which makes him look kinda weird. But his talent, which he still has shouldn't be overlooked

  • That's sad he used to he soo freaking fine and now look at him

  • the most talented singer/writer of the 80's L.A. metal scene. When I bought D.R.F.S.R. the week it was released, I was surprised to see they were all glammed? I think there music is smart. Much much better than Ratt, Poison, or Motely Crew. Beau Hill was an extraordinary producer which didn't hurt either.

    Musts:

    D.R.F.S.R.

    Cherry Pie

    Dog Eat Dog

    Ultraphobic

  • Looks the way he does from drinking. Hopefully he can get himself together ... Great voice! (when sober). And his name is John. The name Jani, brought about for showmanship purposes, was pronounced more like 'Johnny' ... WAs what he wanted to be called. And was, for a bit, then when Warrant broke huge record people started calling him Jani pronounced 'Jayni' and it just stuck around. Anyway "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is a great song, and really kicked ass at 2008 ROK

  • Celebrity Fit Club anyone ?? Hahahahaha!!! LMAO!

  • LOL JANI OVER DRUGS OR WUT WTF!

  • hehe Jani looks like a fuckin cherry pie

  • Did he get a sex change?? Is he a woman now?

  • he needs plastic surgery on those bags under his eyes

  • @RadSucur He's dead now you cab worry about somebody else's eye bags (Those were a part of his features when he was in his 20's BTW sheeeeesh ) You must be a Kardashian ;-)

  • @OPTIMISPOOH what going on, are u a Jani fanboy, suck it up , he needs to get the eyes fixed

  • ahhh ya bunch of has been piss heads

  • he is old , sorry..........

  • jani lane was never hot he always looked like his dad tried to choke him as a baby with those bugged out eyes!

  • oooooooo jesus, jani what happened?

  • :DDD

  • The bags are from serious partying and i bet he is still doing it . Unbelieveable to see him look that bad . He has make-up covering it too . Denial is someones worst enemy .

  • or from age and lack of sleep

  • Jani Lane used to be so hot. what a waste. Warrant is still great tho

  • too many drunks.........

  • Ratt, might be there...

  • triumphelf...got to meet Stephen Pearcy back-stage this year....he's still quite sexy and very nice, too! Next year's line-up is already underway...I'm really, really hoping that LIta Ford will be there, along with Cinderella, Triumph, Tesla and possibly the Pretenders. Maybe a re-vamp of Scandal or Heart...there are some women who should be included, yes?

  • Sorry, but hes eyes are fucked up.. But I still LOVE warrant! ^^

  • luckygirl2b...you are absolutely right! Age is not something we can choose. I missed seeing him at Rocklahoma, 2009 though.

  • god jani was soo friking hott idk what happend to hem but i still love hem and you all that sayhe looks like shit fuck you ass holes loosers Jani would always be btter then you not matter how he looks like and at the end what matters is the music

  • Jani Lane looks like an ugly women.  Sorry Jani, I know your really a nice guy.

  • XYZ sucks!! I thought that back in 1990, and they still suck!

  • No more cherry pie....he looks like a pumkin pie!!!!!! hahahahahaa!!!!!

  • he still has those blue eyes, with bags under them now...

  • Jani Lane with out a doubt was adorable in the 80's. Yes, he doesn't look like that anymore...but he was gorgeous.

  • Warrant sucked in the 80's.They suck now, and chances are,they'll suck tomorrow!And by the way,I can't believe Bobbi Brown laid down for that sleestak lookin dick!!!

  • bret michaels... what a sexy beast... ha!

  • Who Cares what he looks like. We all know we must age...if we're lucky. I'm glad he's still out there singing.

  • HE LOOKS LIKE SHIT!

  • Well, thats odd.

    Glam Metal is all about hair and weird costumes but were's Jani Lane's hair?

  • You chicks all have your panties in a bunch for Janey still? Apparently you'll have to wait even longer to see him now...his band fired him. Sorry....; )

  • @Vanquard5150 I guess he decided to cut it since glam went out of fashion ever since the Kurt Cobain grunge fags took over. Glam is actually coming back though, so he should grow it again.

  • Warrant had Down Boys, Heaven, I Saw Red, Uncle Tom's Cabin, and Sometimes She Cries. They had a few other hits.

  • You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about douchebag. The only decent thing about Cobain was his autopsy photos.

  • hahahaha well you don't know good music, my friend.

    besides, i'm from washington so i'm allowed to like music that came from my area.

    did you know jimi hendrix was from seattle?

    suck on that. worlds best guitarist.

  • you guy made me laugh.. all those comments about lani lol

  • Hilarious, my friend Billy Morris is in the last picture.

  • jani lane, i had all respects for you when you tried to get back with warrant, but after that shocking last performance, i can say you are nothing but a fat bulgy eyed alcoholic.

  • Jani looks like a fucking cherry pie now

  • He looks like Tori Spelling.

  • your mom looks like tori spelling

  • No she doesn't.

  • @EldestSauce hahahah yeah your right

  • @EldestSauce Hmmm ok .... so what music singer do you think is a great looking manly guy?

  • @Padarack1 the only music singer i think is great looking is jani lane

  • @EldestSauce he may look like tori spelling but he is soooooooo freggin hot

  • @EldestSauce haha nooo!! tori looks like an alien, he's hot!! (atleast he was in the 80's ;) )

  • It's pretty tragic that Jani couldn't keep it together. It would have been a huge comeback. No telling how long it would have lasted if Jani were to keep it together. But, considering all the bad blood for so many years, and they (the other members of Warrant) put aside differences, and give it a shot again, and Jani ruins it. Sad. I liked them.

  • they used to think he was hot now LOOK AT HIM!!

    WAT AN UGLI FAG

  • Well u know he was scarred in a fire so im pretty sure u wouldn't look your best either

  • @RubbIeFace Is that true? I didnt hear bout that. What happened?

  • Jani Lane IS NOT an ugly fag he looks just as good as he ever has!!!!!!!!!!!! >=(

  • Jani L. he still has those oh, so blue eyes.

  • I was thinking the same thing

    *sighs dreamily*

    God he was hot back in the day =] hehe

  • i know rite he still looks good =DDDD

  • in the video for Heaven @ the end when he winks those blue eyes it makes your heart melt!!!!

  • @WarrantGirl27 . Thank you.

    I can not believe all this crap that is being said bout Jani. If they dont like him, get the hell off of a warrant post. I loved him then and I love him now. He is amazing singer.People are sooo shallow!

  • ikr if ppl dont like Jani Lane then y r they on this video? >:(

  • @socksbingo I guess you missed his "performance" at ROC. I can see why they kicked him out after that. There are videos of it posted on here. Just watch them and see for yourself.

  • @trentcreek - I will not argue with the fact that Jani Lane is the poster child for what drug and alcohol addiction can do to a great talent. He definitely has some demons. No question about it. I look at these videos of Warrant to see the jani that WAS so great. He is not what he once was, but I do enjoy hearing his music and seeing his performances on here. He was a great songwriter/singer. :)

  • @socksbingo

    I bet you never met him in person. He's an asshole.

  • @socksbingo Shallow? What could be more shallow than the songwriting in Warrant? I'm not a hater at all, but come on - let's enjoy it for what it is and not try to trick anyone into thinking it's art.

  • @Steakfinger Listen to Uncle Tom's Cabin

  • Yea....RED, white and blue.

  • What is everyone talking about, he looks fine for his age. Have you seen Bret Michaels lately? Now THAT is a trainwreck. Eesh.

  • Too true, too true.

  • @lumariadp Yes . Everyone watching "Rock of Love" think he is so fine when everything on him,including his hair is totally fake. The go to great lengths to pull him together.Tons of makeup. hair pieces.His look is totally FAKE !

  • Wow he aged bad :(

  • In Pryor, Oklahoma in the summer. You can easily find it on the net. It's called "ROCKLAHOMA".

  • i wouldn't have known it was Jani if it wasn't for his eyes...i reconized those anywhere...well and of course the title but you get the idea

  • There is a time and place for 80's and 90's music and it was in the 80's and 90's. I was a fan of those era's considering I graduated in "86" but enogh is enough. Old guys trying to make a buck, if they wouldnt have pissed it away when they had it and invested it they probably would be laughing at shit like this instead of trying to make some cash and looking old and bloated.

  • Being a musician, and 38 years old, I can understand where these guys are coming from. For some of them, such as Joey Allen, has a successful software company. He didn't piss his money away. Sometimes the music is just in your blood. Playing live is a hard feeling to capture in any other way. Look at the Rolling Stones, those guys are dinosaurs but still playing live.

  • Was that really Jani Lane? Wow what a huge difference. Of all the band members from Warrant Jani Lane was the one I had the hugest crush on. Check out his wink at the end of Heaven and you'll understand what attracted me to this talented artist. Warrant rules!!!

  • ye, and his voice has changed also. So much he got kicked out of the band because he can't sing anymore.

  • Hey Look, it's the Cherry Pie guy!

  • are you gunna post that one every vid with jani lane in it?

  • Who's Jani Lane? I'm talkin bout the Cherry Pie guy!

  • I Am in Shock! What the hell happened to this 80s metal heartthrob!!?? I guess the past 20 years must've been hard on him...Is this Rocklahoma always held in July? Would like to come..

  • one Charry Pie too many

  • shovelhead. You must be a joy to your parents and a great role model to your

    nieces and nephews < (This is called sarcasm).

    (With your screwed up attitude, I hope to God you never have children.)

    Ever been to Oklahoma? I didn't think so!

    SHUT UP!!!

  • His eyes were always a little bit buggin, and even though he's put on some poundage, he still be lookin' fine.

  • se le cayeron los ojos?

  • who punched him in the eyes

  • dang why did he have to cut his hair

  • whoa! He said he was clean, but those eyes just say staight away he's on drugs! He ain't gonna get far on drugs! Man, it depresses me!

  • that is called no sleep/his eyes r messed up from no sleep.

  • I was at Rocklahoma and jani talked about how long he had been clean from drugs and alcohol. His body probably took a toll though from all of his drug use.

  • Come on that is not sleep deprivation that is plastic surgery gone wrong. The guy is wearing pancake make up and eyeliner. So lame... Rocklahoma how sad... When you are playing a dump like Oklahoma and acting like it is a big deal its over man. Bunch

  • Jesus WTF is up with his eyes? He kind of looks like my aunt :-P

  • Looks like he's been in the film Total Recall.

  • lol ;)

  • Him and brit m. look too much alike they probally could pass for brothers lol

  • Robin Zander (Cheap Tricks Singer) standing in the background is 10 years older than Jani, and Zander even looks better than him, lol.

  • Yeah, no kidding. His eyes are well, freaky.

  • dude stop saying you can't look 20 forever mabye not but he aged really fast from all the drugs and shit and it doesn't even look natural he looks like shit

  • wow such harsh comments...everybody ages...can't look like you're 20 forever...

  • True

  • i was watching a show about metal and jani said that he hated cherry pie and writing that song ruined his life, that sux personally heaven is my favorite song from warrant

  • Yeah, I saw that on "VH1: Behind the Music" on the L.A. glam scene. Maybe it was on 80's metal in general (which would have included the SF metal scene too).... You get the point. Anyway, yes, I saw him say that, but I looked at Wiki on him and according to that he recanted that whole thing. He said he was tired and had been doing the interview for hours and such and he didn't mean that, and in fact he liked how he made a song so many people still like. Check it out.

  • look you hateful motherfucker, if it weren't for "G.I." you'd be sucking German cock in your fuckin 6 by 8 cell, bitch.

  • not true at all, Prescott Bush financed hitler, and soldiers are just slaves and servants(on both sides) that die and kill for for someone else's interest(notfor the people) most soldiers come from very poor families.

  • No Prescott did not finance Hitler total internet bullshit you moron. Cite one legitimate source for this crap. My father was a USAF General, my mother a doctor/Dean of a top 10 medical school. Go to a legit site and look at the education levels comparing US military with their peers in the civilian world. Not even close. Military members historically become our leaders in business, finance and government far more often then their peers.

    I read it on the internet must be true huh? moron..

  • Easy boy, easy! it's funny that when some people get mad, they blame the internet...(youtube is part of the internet, huh? MORON!!) I didn't ask you for a resume, this is not a job interview and; since this is only a virtual world (internet) there's no reason for me to take you seriously. Prescott and Hitler Kinda go hand and hand. ;D

  • dude ur right about that he looks fucked up, plastic surgery never crossed my mind,its kinda funny my eyes never bugged out like that from being tierd or to much weed. thanks for the response

  • hey shovelhead just because u read something on the internet DOESNT MEAN ITS TRUE

  • oh my gowd man hes soo OLD"

    he looks a bit weird now...

    rock n roll has done him his time

    lmao in a good way of course

    he still rocks it thou

    love you jani!!

  • jani get some sleep.

  • Jani was so much cuter when he was younger OMG he was so cute!!!!!especially in "Cherry Pie video"

  • yes indeed he was a lot more like a closet gay man lol and now he's like SPINAL TAP GONE WRONG LOL

  • he has to sleep he looks terrible!!

  • 20 year as a Rock star makes you look like that man, accept it,

  • actually that first comment wasn't originally my idea...

  • ever look at the guys from the stones? thats what happens after years of rock and roll...totaly worth it tho

  • Damn, Jani looks terrible.

  • T-R-A-I-N-W-R-E-C-K! Jani looks like death!

  • Woo wee he looks like he is allergic to bee stings or something because he looks pretty puffy. No wonder the reunion was short lived. I was lucky enough to see them in their prime in 1991 at the Civic Center in Portland ME. Those days are gone and so is Warrant. I like Robert Mason as a singer, dont get me wrong, but as with bands, the voice is what makes the reunion, not 80%. Get well Jani and thanks for the memories!

  • LOL! I spelled Warrant wrong. well, i'm a blonde, can you blame me? lmao!

  • jani's not with wartrant anymore. they just got a dif singer.

  • YOU GUYS ARE FAGS

  • I was born in 1970, love 70's music. Partied to this HAIR "GARBAGE" music in the 80's. Love it. Sing it for fun and make good $ on the side. Not all of them were talented, but now some of them are a joke. Still respect them. Guess if you are a 60's child you just missed the boat. GARBAGE? Sorry Grandpa......Go back to your dog biting contest OKKK?..bahahahaha!

  • flaCOCKrocks70,

    Missed that boat? Thank God. I don't know what's funnier, U calling me grandpa when U R 2 years younger, or the common excuse from silly cunts like U which is always, "Hey it's party music!" Well, why party to bad music? It comes down to having bad taste. I partied to Zeppelin, Stones, Hendrix, Van Halen, Stevie Ray. Still do. As for "dog biting contest" comment, an uneducated moron like U WOULD call it that. Too bad my dog's stud fees R more than your annual salary. bahahahaha!

  • Lighten up goldtop. I was just kidding about your music, profession and the grandpa comment. I listen to all genres of music. Sorry if you got offended. As for annual salary, we can both sit here and brag, but what is the point. As for being uneducated, nice touch with the word COCK in my name and calling me a cunt. How old are we now? Sorry again. Have a nice day!

  • flaCOCKrocks70,

    You're weak.
