RIP Jani. A true showman left us. To all you wannabes, this is how live performances are done. No backing tracks, just raw energy. My hat's off to Warrant.
When I watched this in the 80s even then I/We thought this was very weak and cheesy.And it was just very bad for metal in every way.You could still play heavy and get laid.I mean dont they have any integrity.And thru the years ive come to not mind Jani.Even before his death.I think "Cherry Pie" really was a curse to him.Poor sap.
jani checked into a hotel in cali downed a bottle of pills and booze iv'e heard and just ended it , to darn soon as he was close in my age 14 mos apart , i also sing and write and dreamed of the life only i got what i wanted man , sex,drugs and a 25 year party , no record deal, no label, nothing bnut to party my band " sleaze junkie " nyc underground long island boys , we had it all and nyc was our party also , mansions and millionheirs i knew and grew up with threw lavish very private party's
Kinda nice to see some rock and roll people being rock and roll....Jani looks pretty wasted.....that's what it is all about.....have some fun and be young....it goes by really quick....
I like all rock which got good groove and good feeling, dont care if it's zepplin, hanoi, uriah heep, alice or warrant... If its good, its good, no matter how big hair theyve got or not.
It still blows my mind that some fat music exec sat in his office and decided that grunge music was better than this kick ass hair metal ! What a colossal fuck up on his part !
@psrafael it took 30 years to have people dressing again like the 70s so you must wait a bit more for the 80s....but please they really looked horrible....and i bet this look will never come back...
1989 was a great year. Got to see Warrant and all the other bands like KISS that year in concert. It kinda marked an end to an era of this kind of rock n roll on radio an TV.
One of the last great Rock bands from the 80s. RIP Jani. Rock went down the toilet with bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam and the like. 2 decades later, it's beyond the point of no return. Mainstreams been polluted too long with horse shit.
Iam so upset at MTV for doing nothing for at the 2011 vma and even wen they don't play music anymore.shame on you MTV shame.you will never kill rock and.long live rock and rock and it going to make big come real soon mark my word and MTV will have eat crow
embaressing really. i mean the song is good, but the clothes, moves, actions, its soooooooooo godamn cheesy. brutal that i used to look like this too!
JANI MADE THEM STARS did they kick jani out of the band ? IF SO WHAT ASSHOLE'S ,LOOSER;S AND NOW NOBODY'S , JANI RULES , R.I.P. BRO AND TO THE BAND IF YA DID KICK HIM OUT FUCK YOU ALL ! THIS VIDEO SHOWS WITH OUT HIM YOU WERE GOING NO WARSVILLE !
MTV couldn't even take a few minutes to remember a great songwriter and artist. But they took the time to remember a train wreck like Brittney Spears. Nice. I guess it's up to us fans to do the job MTV wouldn't.
im in tears this just reminds of how talented Jani Lane was I will see you in Heven
someday. Im so greatful I got to see you perform everytime warrant came to town the last ive never forget because Jani was in the sanging and came into the crowd was smiling at me i couldnt breathe he qnging the rest of sometime she cries to me and held my hand and kissed it.
That really sucks Janie Lane passed away. I remember seeing him on "Celebrity Fit Club" a couple of years ago and he seemed like such a nice guy.
His said in Rolling Stone magazine several years ago that his favorite band was The Beatles and apparently inspired him to be a rock star. That's pretty cool!
I remeber seeing this..Was about the summer of 89.And i hated it!Back at that time it was more like Metallica and Anthrax for me and this was not my style..But i do respect them now and have since all the god awful crap in the music scene that came out in the early-mid 90's..R.I.P Jani!!
Just reading some of the comments below. I like they way they are dressed better than the people in the audiance and alot of these guys that you think dressed like whacked out transvestites would seriously kick someones ass Those days were so much fun I will never forget it... I am sad for what he got caught up in notice the all-seeing eye at the top of their stage. I hope he got out. In the end the fame is not worth it.... We will never forget you Jani
I have been watching Warrant videos for the past couple of hours because of the passing of Jani Lane and I can't tell you how many memories this brings back from my teenage years.
Descanse en Paz JANI LANE.... que gran época, el verdadero Rock ´n´Roll, sin la falsedad del grunge, el verdadero Heavy Metal que refleja lo que tiene que ser el Rock...
Man, those are some painfully corny stage moves and outfits. I was a teenager when all this hair band crap took off but I couldn't relate to any of it. A few the songs were actually memorable but that cheesy 80s studio production and overblown LA image just ruined it for me. Cringe-worthy stuff
@ritter89 Yeah, it's like they shot themselves in the foot when they decided to dress like a bunch of whacked- out transvestites. The music was great but their image was so lame. I look back on it today and laugh.
RIP jani lane
