Absolutely. There's not a single weak track on it. Though imo Heaven is the standout track on it. YOu only have to watch the entire Wembley audience sing the first verse to him in 1986 after the intro, before he starts the whole of Wembley erupts.
It's one the few "perfect" albums, every track i'd give my eye teeth to have written just one line of lyric. I drove 160km to collect a CD Copy from 1986, just to get the original sound, I didn't want to risk it being lost in the post. I sits in my "Desert Island" collection alongside, Bat Out Of Hell, Exile On Main Street, Back In Black, Thin Lizzy's Live and Dangerous and Skynyrds "One More from the Road"
Keith Scott! What a legend! One of the most underrated guitars players around. Regardless of how many notes and how fast he played, always stayed true to the song. We wouldn't be talking about Bryan Adams the way we do without Keith Scott for sure.
I’m the biggest Bryan Adams fan ever I have all of his 45’s I love him Thank you Professor of Rock for doing this he does not get celebrated enough ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
While I might have gotten 'Reckless' on cd (definitely had it on cassette), the first cd I remember hearing was something by Talking Heads -- maybe 'Speaking in Tongues?' Can't remember the song, but I do recall being blown away by the clarity. I'd never heard music over a stereo sound so crystal clear before.
I remember my friend getting the first CD player in our small town. We couldn’t believe how expensive the disks were at $15 or more! It’s so funny to think about that now, but his copy of Ozzy/Bark at the Moon did sound pretty dang good! 😁
There's nothing like seeing Bryan Adams in concert and the way the crowd gets into his songs. Heaven, Cuts Like A Knife and Summer of 69 are absolutely amazing in concert. Have never seen a bad show of his, but my favorite was in December 1992. Mr Big was the opener and they just played all night long, was almost like they didn't want the show to end. Great memories of his shows, but that one really stands out to this day.
Bryan is the real deal, few touring artists today can match his catalogue of hits. I have been to four Bryan Adams concerts and he is one of the few classic rock singer i have witnessed that sings as good, if not better than he did when he was young, no tuning down of guitars or transposing of keys. Another thing that i really appreciate about Bryan is that its all about the music, no glitter and glam or political agenda. He puts on a t-shirt, a pair of jeans, goes out on the stage and gives his fans what they want. Another great video professor. Greetings from Norway.
To me, Summer of ‘69 is THE greatest song of all time. Even today, I’ll sometimes get a nostalgic tear when I hear it from remembering when that song came out, how innocent life was and how great the 80’s were in general. I can also still remember being 5 years old in 1983 and hearing Straight from the Heart and Cuts Like A Knife on the radio for the first time and I’ve been a fan of Bryan’s ever since. If you haven’t heard any of his recent stuff, go check it out. I’ve also admired his wanting to stay out of the spotlight and just make music you can enjoy forever
"Its Only Love" has got to be one of the best duo's of the 80's or one of the best period. That song just ROCKS. Bryan and Tina were on fire in that song.
I was at a Pub in 1985 and during the band break they played Run To You on their huge speakers. It was the first time I heard it and it sounded awesome. I went out and bought the album that week.
Hearts on Fire is a high energy song that is often overlooked. Saw him in the 80's and the 2000's, he rocks just as hard today as he did in the 80's. Go see him while you still can, you will not regret it.
Last November saw Bryan Adams live!!! He played 25 songs. 20 of them were massive hits from 80s 90s and early 2000s!!! His voice is still there!!! If this is the last big concert I ll ever see, I m fine with that!
One of the things that really sets Bryan Adams apart is the production on his records, particularly Reckless. There's so much space around the guitar and the drums. It really sounds huge. And the guitar sound leading into the final chorus of Run to You is incredible.
I absolutely love “Cuts Like A Knife”. I especially like the version from Adams’ MTV Unplugged album with members of the Hothouse Flowers. Very Irish feel. I met Bryan Adams years later backstage. He was just as humble and kind as you might imagine. And, he is a small guy. Maybe 5’6”, 140 lbs. That show, and meeting him personally, was one of the highlights of my life.
Glad people can finally show Bryan Adams some love...I feel like he's been quite a punchline in the past. I for one love his songwriting, I've always enjoyed his voice and his guitarist Keith Scott is a hell of a guitar player. Amazing tone and musicality!
I've never understood why he's been a joke artist. Maybe it's just residual thrashing of Everything I Do, people have finally forgotten it and accepted his other quality tunes.
Saw him last year here in Costa Rica for his Shine a Light world tour... all I am gonna say is that it has been one of the best concerts I have attended...and probably the one I have enjoyed the most! Simply amazing.
I saw Bryan Adams in Melbourne Australia last March and ge was amazing X he told a story that his parents went into their life savings and bought him a piano and the first song he wrote on it at 17 was "Straight from the Heart" one of the best shows I've been to xx
I was there in March 2019. It was absolutely a poignant moment during a great show. My first ever concert was seeing him at Rod Laver in 97. Hope to see him again.
I saw him with Billy Idol as the opening act in Virginia in 2019. I've seen him many times and he is a good now as the first time I saw him in the 80's.
I don't have a "favorite" song of Bryan Adams because he gave us numerous great songs through the decades. He along with so many other musical geniuses of the 80s, defined the best decade of my life. Bryan Adams became a legend the moment he hit radio stations around the world. And rightfully so... I will say it until I'm blue in the face... The 80s was by far the best era for music (music videos), movies, television, fads, and just being alive. No other decade will ever come close to what we had back then.
Adams toured a few years ago with his acoustic guitar and an accompanying pianist. His voice was absolutely amazing. He didn't need assistance from the recording studio. That voice is the real deal.
BA was and is still my fav. Such an under-rated singer, guitarist, song writer, and live performer. Anyone that has seen him live knows he sounds as great in person as on the albums. I guess he doesn’t get his recognition because he is unassuming but really should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, maybe someday. Great summary list. Someone said earlier the whole Reckless Album could have been on here. But so many classics on The Cuts Like a Knife album (This Time, Straight From the Heart, Best Was Yet to Come) and the underrated Heat of the Night album I loved Home Again, Rebel, and Native Son which all never got all play. Thanks for spotlighting Bryan.
Bryan Adams was one of the best concert I have ever been to, not showy, came out worked the music and crowd, stopped in the middle of a song, to tell the ladies to "keep their knickers on" after some were tossed on stage
I remember buying Cuts Like A Knife on a band trip out of our little, tiny town. I listened to it over and over again thinking about a boy I’d met while I was there. I was crazy in love with him and I still think about him every time I hear a Bryan Adams song. 🥰
“Run to you” isn’t about a mistress but it’s about his love for his guitar. Just after 80’s came his great 90’s hits. That’s when I got to know about him. “Waking up the neighbours” and the next few albums were just full of great songs.They haven’t got old. Still as great now as back then.
That song is the definitive Bryan Adams! I agree with you wholeheartedly! They finally included it on one of his 2CD ultimate collections. One of his best and most underrated songs.
Glad you gave Bryan Adams some love. For how many hits he’s had over the years, he should definitely be in the rock and roll hall of fame. So many great tunes. Hard to narrow it down to a top 5. I could easily do a top 10. I agree with your #1 pick too by the way. My top 5... 1) Run To You 2) One Night Love Affair 3) This Time 4) Cuts Like A Knife 5) It’s Only Love
As a Canadian kid in the 80's I still remember how huge Reckless and the song Run To You were here in Canada, and rightly so. That album and all it's songs still stand up today without sounding overly dated. An all killer no filler record
Can't ask for anything on an easy Sunday morning, while listening to one Adam talking about another Adam...my favourite Rock star.. love how you corellat the songs with your childhood experiences..I do the same as each great song transports me to a particular moment in my life..my 5ers: A little love (MTV Unplugged version), Cloud no. 9, 18 till I die, Please forgive me, Let's make a night to remember..!! I was at his recent Ultimate tour..!! Was crying with bliss in the middle of the concert..he can rock..and make you cry too.. thanks Adam..👍
Well I’m just back from a two hour extravaganza of watching Bryan Adams live video performances from across the decades. I’m a happy woman now🥰 and man what a head of hair on him!!
He is amazing I’m Canadian and never ever missed one of his concerts he is fabulous recommend seeing him live he was also friends with Princess Diana wrote a great song Diana for her
I became a serious BAD fan back in 1999, yes 21 years ago when I was a high school senior. Napster was in its prime, I was getting tired of listening to my peers' gangster rap. So I decided to expand my genres of tunes. I downloaded Summer of 69 back in '99 and fell in love with his tunes. It's also nice that he's from Vancouver as well since I grew up in Vancouver as a kid. As a local guy during my younger years, one of my high school teachers was close classmates with Bryan Adams. She consistently attested that he was determined to make it regardless of his small size and lack of academic ambition. His tunes has an ability to lift my mood.
Bryan Adams was one of my favorites in high school and i still play his stuff today. Every song feels like a life experience, a picture -a time machine. I got goose bumps watching this video. Amazing
My memory of Bryan Adams started away from my home in Havana. For 45 days every year, kids in Cuba were taken to work in the agriculture, far away from home. One of the kids was in charge of waking the the entire school at 5:30 am every morning by any means, so he played a Bryan Adams cassette in the loudspeakers. We all fell in love with his music.
I saw Bryan Adams in concert years ago. He was amazing! The first time I really listened closely to his music, was when I heard Cuts like a knife. I had the Reckless tape growing up in the 1980’s. It’s one of the albums ever. There is not even a mediocre song on it. Every song is great! One night love affair would definitely be in my top five.
He puts on a helluva good show. His was my first concert in 1987, my 18th birthday present haha. I saw him again in 91 for Waking up the Neighbours. As good as both those stadium concerts were, I think my favorite was seeing him in 2012 (I think) on his Bare Bones tour. Just him, acoustic guitar and pianist. And a surprise bagpiper on Cuts Like a Knife which was honestly amazing.
He is one of my all-time favorite rock vocalists! His voice is perfect for Classic Rock and his songs are incredibly melodic. He amazes me with his incredible talent and I still listen, and play guitar, to his songs to this day.
My parents had the "Cuts Like a Knife" album on cassette; that or "Heaven" is my favorite Bryan song, while my least favorite is "Everything I Do". Somehow, that song is just too overplayed on the radio, and I've just never really cared for it. Another awesome ballad, though, is "When You Love Someone", featured at the end of the movie "Hope Floats", and for upbeat numbers, I'd even go for "Run To You" or his rocking duet with Tina Turner, "It's Only Love" P.S. Did you know "Heaven" was inspired by Journey's "Faithfully"? Bryan wrote it while he was on Journey's Frontiers Tour in 1983. Also, Bryan, much like Mickey Thomas' vocals on "Fooled Around and Fell in Love", doesn't get the credit he deserves for his background vocals on Glass Tiger's "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)"
I saw Bryan Adams two years ago in his tour here in India. He just blew me away! He sounds as good as he did in the 80s. He's still got that amazing raspiness after all these years.
Bryan Adams toured Australia extensively in the 80's/90's, being one of his largest markets outside of Canada. When he hit Adelaide, South Australia, I acquired tickets, and surprised my now wife. As soon as he appeared on stage, every young woman in the room bolted for the front of stage. For nearly 3 hours, I had no idea where she was !! Great show and great memories. 👍👍🇭🇲
It was the same here in South Dakota, went to the concert cause I won free tickets and usual concert then was 60% guys and 40% girls. I didn't notice it at first walking in the parking lot but by the time you made it inside it was definetly 70% girls he put on a good show i think but for my 16 year old mind the crowd stole the show.
Thanks to Bryan Adams I stayed in line with the rock music. Heaven and Run to You were the reason I bought the album and that was it for me... I lis to this when it was new and my parents we're splitting and I had this album !!!
I had his album Reckless in 1985 when I first got my drivers licence at 18. I played that cassette so much. The songs bring back so many memories. Good times.
I became aware of Bryan Adams as a 9/10 year old back in 1984 with 'The Summer of 69' and 'Run To You'. I liked his music alot but wasn't over the top about him. Then I'll never forget on a Saturday in 1991 when his world debut of his song and video for (Everything I Do) I Do For You on NBC. I got teary eyed listening to that song. Eventually I purchased his 'So Far, So Good' Greatest Hits cassette collection. Bryan is indeed among my top 15 singers and musicians ever! I've got so much of his studio recordings and even rare, live concerts on audio.
Just found this channel, thank you this is great . Bryan Adams is great been a fan since " Cuts like a knife " '83 , in fact " Every thing I do .." was sung in my wedding in 92 . I think he has never got the props he deserves. 80's music the best. I thought I was by myself on how I relate music to times in my life . Thanks
The drums on Cuts Like A Knife are a perfect example of a groove that can't be duplicated on a machine. That's what won't allow most modern songs to have staying power. Gotta have that human heartbeat, there is no way around it.
This is my 80s (and 90s) Bryan Adams’ 5’er: 5. Straight From The Heart 4. Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman? 3. Summer of 69 2. Everything I Do, I Do It For You 1. Please Forgive Me
All good songs, but 3 of them are good songs, but may as well break them up. Since 3 of them are from the 90's, just do one for each decade and it should be easy enough to get 5 from each. LOL
A piece on Adams without special mention of is Guitarist, Kieth Scott is not right. He has been such a loyal sidekick for so many years and his playing has been a huge part of Adams success. He's highly respected amongst guitar players but his name is largely unknown by the fans.
I would second that. Bryan plays rhythm mostly. Keith is the main soloist. He is a big part of Bryan's music similar to Mike Campbell's relationship to Tom Petty.
@@officialWWM He is crucial to Bryan's success and Bryan would surely endorse this. We saw him live in Liverpool on two occasions and each time the whole band were superb, with Keith's guitar integral to the whole performance.
Have always like Bryan. One of the best rockers to come out of the 80’s. As a musician I love to play his songs. They have so much power and I love the guitar work. Saw him live a few years ago and had so much fun. Nothing better than the sound of a Fender Stratocaster through an amp with no tricks or gimmicks! Gotta give some respect to his guitarist Keith Scott!
I love BA! I saw him in concert twice - first at an outdoors festival in St. John’s when I was about 21 and in my mid-40s in Toronto. Great Canadian talent!

So underrated artist, Bryan is a total stud.
Bryan Adams entire Reckless album is a masterpiece, pretty much all hits
Paul Mcgee Agree!
Absolutely. There's not a single weak track on it. Though imo Heaven is the standout track on it. YOu only have to watch the entire Wembley audience sing the first verse to him in 1986 after the intro, before he starts the whole of Wembley erupts.
It's one the few "perfect" albums, every track i'd give my eye teeth to have written just one line of lyric. I drove 160km to collect a CD Copy from 1986, just to get the original sound, I didn't want to risk it being lost in the post. I sits in my "Desert Island" collection alongside, Bat Out Of Hell, Exile On Main Street, Back In Black, Thin Lizzy's Live and Dangerous and Skynyrds "One More from the Road"
Kids Wanna Rock - complete BADASS anthem
Great album I had the tape when I was a kid.
Night in, night out for 40 years has given it all onstage. Underrated songwriter, and the greatest live performer I’ve ever seen.
Keith Scott! What a legend! One of the most underrated guitars players around. Regardless of how many notes and how fast he played, always stayed true to the song. We wouldn't be talking about Bryan Adams the way we do without Keith Scott for sure.
I’m the biggest Bryan Adams fan ever I have all of his 45’s I love him Thank you Professor of Rock for doing this he does not get celebrated enough ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
BA RRHOF. Yet another overdue artist :) LA Kia Forum July 29 💪
Bryan Adams, a greatly underappreciated, songwriter, and singer and rockstar
I'll date myself here but "Summer of 69" was the first song I heard on a CD player. It was mind blowing.
Thanks for sharing.
While I might have gotten 'Reckless' on cd (definitely had it on cassette), the first cd I remember hearing was something by Talking Heads -- maybe 'Speaking in Tongues?' Can't remember the song, but I do recall being blown away by the clarity. I'd never heard music over a stereo sound so crystal clear before.
Growing up, my parents both loved Bryan Adams, I’m honoured to know most of his songs word for word, he has so many good ones.
I heard run to you was him deciding between a woman and his band lol
I remember my friend getting the first CD player in our small town. We couldn’t believe how expensive the disks were at $15 or more! It’s so funny to think about that now, but his copy of Ozzy/Bark at the Moon did sound pretty dang good! 😁
"Do i have to say the words" has always been a favourite of mine.
“Heaven” is probably one of the best ballads of all time
Add Please forgive me to that! Hipnotizingly beautiful and melodic.
Agreed. "Heaven" has the best middle eight of any 80's song. 🎶 "I've been waiting for so long..."🎶
I need to dig out my old lighter, now.
For the gay community
100% agree my friend
One night love affair. Great song
"Heat of the Night" great song.... vastly underrated and under played!!!
There's nothing like seeing Bryan Adams in concert and the way the crowd gets into his songs. Heaven, Cuts Like A Knife and Summer of 69 are absolutely amazing in concert. Have never seen a bad show of his, but my favorite was in December 1992. Mr Big was the opener and they just played all night long, was almost like they didn't want the show to end.

Greetings from Norway.
I would add “One Night Love Affair” to your list.
Bryan Park agreed!!
Oh yeah!!!
@Bryan Park
Definitely.
One Night Love Affair is a quintessential rock n roll song.
One of his best.
Thought i died and gone to heaven,as well, definetly
One Night Love Affair is a great fuckin’ song!

Bryan Adam’s music never goes out of style
Waking up the neighbours is such a great underrated album I still to this day throw it on
It's one of the best 90's rock albums.
Fits ya good was my introduction to Bryan Adams, and it still tops my list.
"Run To You" has always been my fave BA banger. That bass
And the guitar tone is to die for. Great keyboards and organ on the Reckless album too.
Hearts on Fire is a high energy song that is often overlooked. Saw him in the 80's and the 2000's, he rocks just as hard today as he did in the 80's. Go see him while you still can, you will not regret it.

Saw him last year here in Costa Rica for his Shine a Light world tour... all I am gonna say is that it has been one of the best concerts I have attended...and probably the one I have enjoyed the most! Simply amazing.

Ahhh Man. Bryan Adam's Reckless album is a phenomenal platter of fantastic songs. Just brilliant writing and arrangements.👍
It’s one of the best records of that year.

I guess he doesn’t get his recognition because he is unassuming but really should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, maybe someday. Great summary list.

All of his songs are good...but this dude rocks out live in concert. Even today, he puts on a great show.
ONE NIGHT LOVE AFFAIR is my favorite not when I was listening in the 80s but now.
"It's Only Love" is one of my all-time faves from Adams. That guitar part in the middle is just a pleasure to hear every time.
Bryan Adams was one of the best concert I have ever been to, not showy, came out worked the music and crowd, stopped in the middle of a song, to tell the ladies to "keep their knickers on" after some were tossed on stage

I know you limited this to the 80s -- justifiable so -- but his single Thought I'd Died and Gone To Heaven always reminds me of my first love
That song is the definitive Bryan Adams! I agree with you wholeheartedly! They finally included it on one of his 2CD ultimate collections. One of his best and most underrated songs.
My favorite tune of his from the 90’s is “ Can’t Stop This Thing We Started” from the same Waking Up the Neighbors album
@@retropyro Oh man, never heard it. You gotta link that for me!
Glad you gave Bryan Adams some love. For how many hits he’s had over the years, he should definitely be in the rock and roll hall of fame. So many great tunes. Hard to narrow it down to a top 5. I could easily do a top 10. I agree with your #1 pick too by the way. My top 5...
1) Run To You
2) One Night Love Affair
3) This Time
4) Cuts Like A Knife
5) It’s Only Love
One Night Love Affair is such an amazing song that does not get enough exposure!!
You missed the best ones
Yes absolutely agree
1) Run to you
2) one night love affair
Couldn’t agree more! Reckless is one of my favourite albums of all time.
I love that you included One Night Love Affair! So underrated and greatest album opener of all time!
Saw him in concert three years ago from the third row. Dude’s voice is still as good as it was in the 80’s. Just an awesome artist!
And he just keeps getting better right on into the 2000's. His concerts are unbelievable.
As a Canadian kid in the 80's I still remember how huge Reckless and the song Run To You were here in Canada, and rightly so. That album and all it's songs still stand up today without sounding overly dated. An all killer no filler record
Bryan Adams album Cuts Like A Knife is a masterpiece of a rock album because every song is Great.
I'd put his first hit, "Hidin' From Love" from 1980 in my 5'er. Great guitar work and a catchy song.
Can't ask for anything on an easy Sunday morning, while listening to one Adam talking about another Adam...my favourite Rock star.. love how you corellat the songs with your childhood experiences..I do the same as each great song transports me to a particular moment in my life..my 5ers: A little love (MTV Unplugged version), Cloud no. 9, 18 till I die, Please forgive me, Let's make a night to remember..!! I was at his recent Ultimate tour..!! Was crying with bliss in the middle of the concert..he can rock..and make you cry too.. thanks Adam..👍
Thank you for this!!! SO happy to see Bryan Adams being appreciated. He is hugely underrated.

First concert I ever saw @ the LA Forum. He absolutely killed it. He does not get enough credit as a rocker.
Singer, writer, musician and one heck of a performer. He blew Market Square Arena away after his first album.
Jim Vallance & Bryan Adams have written some of the best songs ever.
Bryan Adams has been an absolute hit machine during his career.
Bryan is one of my all time favorites.
A dream concert.
Equally brilliant rocking or singing a ballad.
My memory of Bryan Adams started away from my home in Havana. For 45 days every year, kids in Cuba were taken to work in the agriculture, far away from home. One of the kids was in charge of waking the the entire school at 5:30 am every morning by any means, so he played a Bryan Adams cassette in the loudspeakers. We all fell in love with his music.
Love Bryan Adams. Thanks for this video
I saw Bryan Adams in concert years ago. He was amazing! The first time I really listened closely to his music, was when I heard Cuts like a knife. I had the Reckless tape growing up in the 1980’s. It’s one of the albums ever. There is not even a mediocre song on it. Every song is great! One night love affair would definitely be in my top five.
"Run to You", If done by "'Blue Oyster Cult', would have added, Too Much Cowbell ! ;-) lol
He puts on a helluva good show. His was my first concert in 1987, my 18th birthday present haha. I saw him again in 91 for Waking up the Neighbours. As good as both those stadium concerts were, I think my favorite was seeing him in 2012 (I think) on his Bare Bones tour. Just him, acoustic guitar and pianist. And a surprise bagpiper on Cuts Like a Knife which was honestly amazing.
Brian is a Canadian Icon … with so much talent … but still humble. Plus a ton of hits to go along.🇨🇦
He is one of my all-time favorite rock vocalists! His voice is perfect for Classic Rock and his songs are incredibly melodic. He amazes me with his incredible talent and I still listen, and play guitar, to his songs to this day.
I also must add that "Let Me Take You Dancing" is my favorite disco song.
My parents had the "Cuts Like a Knife" album on cassette; that or "Heaven" is my favorite Bryan song, while my least favorite is "Everything I Do". Somehow, that song is just too overplayed on the radio, and I've just never really cared for it. Another awesome ballad, though, is "When You Love Someone", featured at the end of the movie "Hope Floats", and for upbeat numbers, I'd even go for "Run To You" or his rocking duet with Tina Turner, "It's Only Love"
P.S. Did you know "Heaven" was inspired by Journey's "Faithfully"? Bryan wrote it while he was on Journey's Frontiers Tour in 1983. Also, Bryan, much like Mickey Thomas' vocals on "Fooled Around and Fell in Love", doesn't get the credit he deserves for his background vocals on Glass Tiger's "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)"
I saw Bryan Adams two years ago in his tour here in India. He just blew me away! He sounds as good as he did in the 80s. He's still got that amazing raspiness after all these years.
Bryan Adams was like the real life Marty Mcfly.
Tango1080 lol, that's hilarious. I can't disagree with you 😂
I'm watching this on a Back to the Future commercial break on TV. Lol
Tango1080 - funny you say that, both Brian Adams and Michael J. Fox are from the same city! Vancouver ❤️
Jacqueline Butterfield hmmm, maybe they are the same person? Illuminati exposed! 🤔
@@officialWWM nice 🔥
I was a kid just discovering music when Reckless was out. Those songs are some of the ones I remember from those mid-80s days
Bryan Adams is my favorite male singer! Thanks for this video!
Bryan Adams toured Australia extensively in the 80's/90's, being one of his largest markets outside of Canada. When he hit Adelaide, South Australia, I acquired tickets, and surprised my now wife. As soon as he appeared on stage, every young woman in the room bolted for the front of stage. For nearly 3 hours, I had no idea where she was !! Great show and great memories. 👍👍🇭🇲
It was the same here in South Dakota, went to the concert cause I won free tickets and usual concert then was 60% guys and 40% girls. I didn't notice it at first walking in the parking lot but by the time you made it inside it was definetly 70% girls he put on a good show i think but for my 16 year old mind the crowd stole the show.
Summer of 69 Bryan Adams,kids wanna rock,this time,straight to the heart.
Thanks to Bryan Adams I stayed in line with the rock music. Heaven and Run to You were the reason I bought the album and that was it for me... I lis to this when it was new and my parents we're splitting and I had this album !!!
Bryan’s song have a real power. His early work really helps if you are feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of life. Simple, heartfelt and relatable.
I had his album Reckless in 1985 when I first got my drivers licence at 18. I played that cassette so much. The songs bring back so many memories. Good times.
I became aware of Bryan Adams as a 9/10 year old back in 1984 with 'The Summer of 69' and 'Run To You'. I liked his music alot but wasn't over the top about him. Then I'll never forget on a Saturday in 1991 when his world debut of his song and video for (Everything I Do) I Do For You on NBC. I got teary eyed listening to that song. Eventually I purchased his 'So Far, So Good' Greatest Hits cassette collection. Bryan is indeed among my top 15 singers and musicians ever! I've got so much of his studio recordings and even rare, live concerts on audio.
Bryan Adams é um ícone da música em geral, um artista completo, parabéns pelo vídeo, como é bom saber que ele é realmente é uma lenda ✌
My wife loves Bryan Adams and saw him 3 times in concert in Toledo, OH in the 80,s and 90’s. She still has ticket stubs from one concert and t-shirts.
Cuts Like A Knife is the first Bryan Adam’s song I ever heard. That album has so many memories for me.
I saw him last year and he was still amazing!
Total fav "One Night Love Affair" 🎼
Just found this channel, thank you this is great . Bryan Adams is great been a fan since " Cuts like a knife " '83 , in fact " Every thing I do .." was sung in my wedding in 92 . I think he has never got the props he deserves. 80's music the best. I thought I was by myself on how I relate music to times in my life . Thanks
Run to you, that song still brings it.
Defined my college years!!! Love Bryan Adams!!!
The drums on Cuts Like A Knife are a perfect example of a groove that can't be duplicated on a machine. That's what won't allow most modern songs to have staying power. Gotta have that human heartbeat, there is no way around it.
I saw him in 84 reckless tour. Great concert. 1984 was an epic year for music.
This is my 80s (and 90s) Bryan Adams’ 5’er:
5. Straight From The Heart
4. Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman?
3. Summer of 69
2. Everything I Do, I Do It For You
1. Please Forgive Me
Rikkousa that's a great song but I can't ignore Run to You. The guitar riff is iconic.
Rikkousa lol, I don't think there are any wrong choices :)
All good songs, but 3 of them are good songs, but may as well break them up. Since 3 of them are from the 90's, just do one for each decade and it should be easy enough to get 5 from each. LOL
A piece on Adams without special mention of is Guitarist, Kieth Scott is not right. He has been such a loyal sidekick for so many years and his playing has been a huge part of Adams success. He's highly respected amongst guitar players but his name is largely unknown by the fans.
I would second that. Bryan plays rhythm mostly. Keith is the main soloist. He is a big part of Bryan's music similar to Mike Campbell's relationship to Tom Petty.
Ernest B I've always thought of Bryan Adams as a band, not a soloist.
@@officialWWM He is crucial to Bryan's success and Bryan would surely endorse this. We saw him live in Liverpool on two occasions and each time the whole band were superb, with Keith's guitar integral to the whole performance.
His guitar work is always tasteful and compliments the song.
Keith is one of the most underrated guitar players ever IMO. From his tone, feel and note choice,. He plays for the song.
Bryan Adams is one of my fav artists of all time!!
Have always like Bryan. One of the best rockers to come out of the 80’s. As a musician I love to play his songs. They have so much power and I love the guitar work. Saw him live a few years ago and had so much fun. Nothing better than the sound of a Fender Stratocaster through an amp with no tricks or gimmicks! Gotta give some respect to his guitarist Keith Scott!
the greatest artists | | and the greatest songs
Agree, Run to You my fav. Seen him twice in concert. Sounds amazing live.

I love BA! I saw him in concert twice - first at an outdoors festival in St. John’s when I was about 21 and in my mid-40s in Toronto. Great Canadian talent!
Awesome!Just saw him in St.Johns at the Arts and culture centre with his piano player.Played two shows in one night.He is still amazing.
"Fits ya Good" is my fav song. 💙 from Montréal 🇨🇦.
Love his voice and many of his top hit songs!
I love Bryan Adams ,♡
