Yeah, it’s like people complaining about „kids today… bla bla bla“. Be it Goethe or Shakespeare etc… like, I bet that even 30,000 years ago, Cro Magnon complained about and feared for the next generations.
Aerosmith was my first concert! I was only 16 (24 yrs ago). My boyfriend at the time, younger sister and a close friend (who was old enough to rent a car and hotel) all packed up and we headed for the Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY! Steven Tyler sounds just like this in person! Truly wonderful voice full of soul. The concert was so much fun and so laid back. People of all ages enjoying one of the best bands in history! Def an experience I will never forget!
Completely agree very much relevant for today's sad and worrisome days.😢 I am happy I got to be a kid in the 80s and a teen in the 90s . Really miss the simplicity of those times even if at that moment it didn't feel that way.
I was a kid in Poland in the 90s and Aerosmith was my band! Other kids liked MJ, Metalica, Queen, etc. I was totally blown away with the sound of Aerosmith. That was my musical first love and that's it. The last rock band of all times.
Very cool, I'm 60 now and still love cranking some Smith and beating on the jeep and the guitars....they have so many great "b" side songs that haven't been heard...very underrated for decades.
@@nadjalaris5232kid, and I say kid with all respect, I'm 60, a cow milking earing...I'm laughin so hard because I understand, good for you to listen to something different than everyone else. Great tunes, be good kid, enjoy your life, its precious.
When I was around ten, I used to steal "Big Ones" out of my brother's room. I'd put it on in our living room, wear my dad's stereo headphones, while he would take his afternoon nap. I always tried to hold myself back from singing along, but NEVER made it, so I'd sing as quietly as I could lol Many years later, my dad told me he heard everything 😅 Precious memories!
Worked on this video, (played Eddie Furlong's father), can't believe it holds up so well after all these years...bumped into Steven a few years ago at a Kings game...still an AMAZING guy!!!!
Just my humble opinion, this is probably Aeros most sophisticated tune. Triple layered melody lyrics, at least 4 minor keys, sophisticated orchestration arrangement for a mainstream rock band. If they wanted to be the Beatles, they came close with this.
this is really the very best and the most complex song they've ever written. you're right about this being the most sophisticated of all. (maybe "amazing" could come close on the same album.) "get a grip" was really a _now or never_ album for aerosmith, they gave their best effort to write good songs. "livin' on the edge" is a _led zeppelin-level_ song, something they always wanted to achieve.
I agree that this song has a strong meaning to all the lyrics and is one of his best. I had a ball when this song came out and I wouldn't take nothing back from my past.
This is really a great song. Jaded and Amazing are both great songs as well but they are not nearly as well executed as this tune. My brother turned me on to this song and told me to think the Beatles when I listened to it. He was dead on. The mix of the minor keys and orchestration felt like a continuation of the Beatles.

One of the greatest rock songs of the last 30 years....Timeless and sounds badass no matter what era it’s heard in....Killer production in making the song and video!
My Favorite Aerosmith song. Saw them a few years back in New Orleans and sat on the third row. During the guitar solo I walked up to the huge speaker that Perry and Tyler were standing on. For that one moment I felt like the only person in the world. Something I’ll always remember.
@@richardlacey4923 He sure did, and every time they have a concert in Louisiana he goes to the French Quarters and records a song and video and he performs it during the concert with the video on the big screen. Just Amazing.

No, it wasn’t. As in, it’s been true then, today and 10,000 years ago. There’s ALWAYS something wrong with the world. I’m just glad I don’t live in Middle Ages. 😳
This song is my Stairway to Heaven. I graduated in 1999 and was entering junior high when this song was played on MTV. The MTV that still played music. Not shows about 16 yr old whores getting pregnant. The only actual TV shows I remember them showing (Besides "The real world" 😒) was Beavis & butthead. MTV used to actually be worth watching. Headbangers Ball, 120 minutes... I miss when they actually fucking played music.
Man I remember buying the Get A Grip album on tape at the record store as a teenager. Wore it out. This song has always hit me hard because things were changing alot around the time this video was on MTV and have changed tremendously since. Livin On The Edge sums up today's times for sure.

So true today!! This song used to put me to sleep like a lullaby with the guitar as a child. I will blare this when i drive in hopes ppl hear the truth in it today. Love Aerosmith! See y'all in October 💕
The world is becoming deaf dumb and blind and it's a self-choice. Aerosmith has always presented thinking out of box music...revolutionary, apt,appropriate and most appealing. Love it. Thank you 😊 💓
The only rock star i ever met, Steven Tyler. He was sitting behind me on Disney's ride "The tower of terror". We had just been his ride, Rockin roller coaster.. I was hiigh as a kite on x. We walked and talked on the way out.

It was when the Yardbirds sang it in the 60s in the song. "Mister you're a better man than i" with Jimmy page on guitar,,that must be where arrowsmith stole it from
When MTV was still MTV and the M stood for Music instead of "Meh". I still remember I always yelled at the screen that he should move from the train. It looked so real at the time :')
THE SOLO OF JOE PERRY WITH THE TRAIN IN YOU FOOTS IS SOME ONLY AEROSMITH MADE THIS MUSIC MAGIC IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES BANDS FROM I WAS ONE TEENAGER OF 16 YEAR OLD AND NEVER PASS OF MODE AND EDWARD FURLONG IN YOU BEST MOMENT HE WAS THE IDOL OF ALL THE GIRLS TOO YOU ESCENE IS EPIC 🎸FOREVER AEROSMITH🎸 SALUTED FROM PUERTO CORTES HONDURAS
I remember watching this video when it first came out, back when MTV actually played music. Amazing and saddening that it's still so painfully relevant in 2020
I remember watching this for the first time on MTV, still a pretty young teenager and it hit me so hard, it was mind blowing, so, so, so coooolllll!!!! I gotta say, I'm sorry kids, times have changed, where's the good music????hahahahaha!!!

I had the biggest crush on Edward Furlong growing up, since we were around the same age. He took this song to heart, because he has aged horribly after living a life filled with excess including drugs, alcohol, women ( or whatever he is into) etc. Hollywood chewed him up and spit him out, as they do most child stars.
He fucked his career on his own..He had everything to succeed (the talent , charisma...) after T2 he made some awesome movies like "American History X" - "Little Odessa" or "Animal Factory"..) Hollywood has bet on him more than Leonardo DiCaprio but he has completely sunk into drugs and we lost a great actor, The Producers do not even think of risking millions of dollars on an actor who has problems of addiction..the case of Lindsay Lohan reminds me a lot of him , she was the star of the future but she just screwed up and the girls who were with her like Rachel McAdams or Amanda Seyfried became successful actresses now..
I know someone who started to listen to U2, specifically Joshua Tree, which had been in the house for a few years, because he said it was his favorite...
Aerosmith's livin on the edge won a Grammy award for best rock vocal performance by duo or group and nominated for best rock song lost to runaway train by asylum
Fun fact, the bridge/railroad in this music video was the same one from the movie Stand By Me. It's located over Lake Britton in California.
These lyrics ring true 30 years later. From 1994 to 2024 getting closer and closer to the edge.
Yeah, it’s like people complaining about „kids today… bla bla bla“. Be it Goethe or Shakespeare etc… like, I bet that even 30,000 years ago, Cro Magnon complained about and feared for the next generations.
I was only 16 in 94, these lyrics have a whole new meaning at 46😂❤🎉
We always have been on the edge - pushing pushing pushing us to change. Its getting more obvious to more people and more intense. Love this song.
Timeless

They announced they are retiring today, ending the farewell tour. 54 years of being the great American rock band, what a sweet emotion.
came here for that. The end of a magnificent era.
Allways living on the edge
Breaks my heart. I love Aerosmith.
They had an Amazing career. Crazy how many great songs they made. I’m Cryin that it’s come to an end.
Aerosmith has always been my favorite, could listen/watch all day. Definitely cryin 😭
Looking back, this song was a funeral for what innocence that remained at the time. We are over the edge now.
Indeed!
This song is more appropriate for today than when it was released.
Yes it is
By all means.
Completely agree very much relevant for today's sad and worrisome days.😢 I am happy I got to be a kid in the 80s and a teen in the 90s . Really miss the simplicity of those times even if at that moment it didn't feel that way.

One of their best songs. Love the background harmonies & vocals & chorus.
I like the lyrics…says a whole lot from people you wouldn’t think even realize what’s going on
I find myself saying “it’s one of their best songs” about so many Aerosmith songs.
Yeah a real killer sound in this tune!!
Hi I recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
they we're on their A game with this one. I think this was their last really great song.
Aerosmith dropped a song that spoke truths back in the day and hits harder now
It's very true to today

The 90s were the best decade for music videos. Quality production, big ideas and no fear of experimental filming.

You misspelled 80s 😛
The 80s did it better the 90s were in second. And then the 2010s meh except for Metal and some Hard rock music now just sucks.

Back again?

@Morris1581 It is purely an Aerosmith music video. And 2 years after T2, too!
You can also see their posters in the movie Brainscan
*only as a kid
Lyrics
There's somethin' wrong with the world today
I don't know what it is
Something's wrong with our eyes
We're seein' things in a different way
And God knows it ain't his
It sure ain't no surprise
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
There's somethin' wrong with the world today
The light bulb's gettin dim
There's meltdown in the sky
If you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin
Then mister you're a better man than I
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge (everybody, everybody)
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication, aggravation is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
Even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin'
Back again
I bet you would my friend
Again and again and again and again and again
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication, aggravation is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
Even if it was would you still come crawlin'
Back again
I bet you would my friend
Again and again and again and again and again
Something right with the world today
And everybody knows it's wrong
But we can tell 'em no or we could let it go
But I'd would rather be a hanging on
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge (everybody, everybody)
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself
You can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself
You can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself
You can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

One of the coolest Aerosmith songs of all time, definite highlight of Get a Grip LP.
So true today!! This song used to put me to sleep like a lullaby with the guitar as a child. I will blare this when i drive in hopes ppl hear the truth in it today. Love Aerosmith! See y'all in October 💕

On się nazywa Edward Furlong.
Edward Furlong....
3:00 HA! GAYYYY!
Wasn't the John Connor, (impersonator), in T3 drinking beer.. on the edge of a bridge?
This needs to be pinned, thank you! XD
The world is becoming deaf dumb and blind and it's a self-choice.
Aerosmith has always presented thinking out of box music...revolutionary, apt,appropriate and most appealing. Love it. Thank you 😊 💓
Totally agree with you my friend.
The only rock star i ever met, Steven Tyler. He was sitting behind me on Disney's ride "The tower of terror". We had just been his ride, Rockin roller coaster.. I was hiigh as a kite on x. We walked and talked on the way out.
Woke up with this song in my head

25 years ago, my first concert. I'll never forget the moment they opened with this song in the get a grip tour. Shaped my life. Thank you guys.
Man, the sound of this song has aged really well. It's so rich and deep.
This songs have and will remain my best 💖. It only gets better with time.
Muito criativo cada clip, figurino, cenários, maquiagens, acessórios, vozes afinadas, instrumentos bem tocados também....
Escutei muito essa música em 1993 na MTV tempos que não voltao mas .
I'm into Hip-Hop mostly but Aerosmith were a great influence on me especially growing up in the 90s.
Somebody listening this masterpiece in 2024????🎸🤘🏻
❤ always 🖤🤘
Brazil here
Аэросмит слушаю с 90х годов.
Prophetic…
Я тут а ты тут?🤘
Rock will never die with me. Thanks to my dad who raised me right. Love you dad ❤️
Agreed. My dad, gone now seven years, and my aunt always had rock & roll playing in the car when I was a young ‘un.
@@davidharrell5396 Sorry to hear of your old man. May he rest in peace
Same, I lost my dad in 2017 . I'll always remember the music we listened to together ❤🎶
So really sad in this/today's society, "Dads" are not really apprcted/ encouragd. So so sad.
"If you can judge a wise man by the color of his skin, then mister you're a better man than I." This line has always been so powerful to me
It was when the Yardbirds sang it in the 60s in the song. "Mister you're a better man than i" with Jimmy page on guitar,,that must be where arrowsmith stole it from
@@buttgoomagoo6919 that is not how you spell Aerosmith , that's ok. At least you spelled Yardbirds correctly. LOL.
Same here! It's my favorite line in the song
Isn't it "If you CAN'T....", though? That would make more sense. Means that whoever sees beyond skin color is a far better person than those who do.
@@kennethjohnson8629 wow ok. Muslims are very peaceful, don't let the media cloud your judgement.
This video is a better coming of age story than most movies.
This song is a masterpiece
This song is definitely speaking truth in todays world. Much luv Aerosmith🎤🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸❤️
Yeah❤❤❤.
When MTV was still MTV and the M stood for Music instead of "Meh".
I still remember I always yelled at the screen that he should move from the train. It looked so real at the time :')
M in MTV today just stands for MEME hahahaha
“Meh”? You mean “Mutilated”
Beavis and Butthead: "Just keep playing! Everything's cool!"
Excelente música
THE SOLO OF JOE PERRY WITH THE TRAIN IN YOU FOOTS IS SOME ONLY AEROSMITH MADE THIS MUSIC MAGIC IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES BANDS FROM I WAS ONE TEENAGER OF 16 YEAR OLD AND NEVER PASS OF MODE AND EDWARD FURLONG IN YOU BEST MOMENT HE WAS THE IDOL OF ALL THE GIRLS TOO YOU ESCENE IS EPIC 🎸FOREVER AEROSMITH🎸 SALUTED FROM PUERTO CORTES HONDURAS
I remember watching this video when it first came out, back when MTV actually played music. Amazing and saddening that it's still so painfully relevant in 2020
I was born old in 1982... Surrounded by people whom I love still. Try
I also remember mtv Playing music
Últimamente esta canción la escucho todos los días. 🤘🖤🔥
Hola quieres ser mi amigo por aquí???
Очем это он пытался Такими глазами?🕡🕡Повседневный макияж
@@oliviahernandez6788 yo lo escuchaba en la prepa en el 97
Y hoy no será la excepción, ven pa ka
Loved this song, forgor it existed, found it again, still love it
Saw the video today on MTV Classics. One of their best songs.
The more time passes by, the more the words become more clearer
Edward Furlong was the love of my life when I was a child ♥
+Lalu WalkingDead Drugs are a mess huh...
+Lalu WalkingDead licia ilverstone was mine
+Lalu WalkingDead mine too *sigh* practically memorized Terminator II and pet cemetary 2 lol

"so much promise"
Been to this concert, this band puts on a very good show, Steven sings his ass off, keep on rocking.
I remember watching this for the first time on MTV, still a pretty young teenager and it hit me so hard, it was mind blowing, so, so, so coooolllll!!!! I gotta say, I'm sorry kids, times have changed, where's the good music????hahahahaha!!!
Theyre not livin' on the edge
This videoclip feels like a dream
Aerosmith is still rocking through the years!
Are they still together?
Last I heard Steven Tyler was doing country music.
Aerosmith the best!!!
There's something wrong with the world today
I don't know what it is
Something's wrong with our eyes
We're seeing things in a different way
And God knows it ain't His
It sure ain't no surprise
We're livin' on the edge
There's something wrong with the world today
The light bulb's getting dim
There's a melt down in the sky
If you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin
The mister you're a better man than I
chorus: We're livin on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication-aggravation
Is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
And even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin'
Back again?
I bet you would my friend
Again & again & again & again & again
Tell me what you think about your situation
Complication-aggravation
Is getting to you
If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin'
And even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin'
Back again?
I think you would my friend
Again & again & again & again
Something right with the world today
And everybody knows it's wrong
But we can tell them no or we can let it go
But I would rather be hanging on
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Livin' on the edge
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
You can't help yourself at all
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself
You can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
You can't help yourself
Livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
Livin' on the edge
Aerosmith formed in like 1970 their career is incredibly impressive
im here for the lil green dude
4:08
Los amo... Y no podría olvidar toda su música crecí con sus canciones y nací en la época de ellas. ya son dioses del rock. AEROSMITH 4EVER!!!!!
I bought my cd in 1994 I still have it
Hola
They don't rock like this anymore. God I miss this kind of music.
Tyler was born in 1948. Lets see how well you rock when you're pushing 70
Scott Waring I agree
Real music
Gone but never forgotten
Scott Waring yeah they think a band called imagine dragons is rock
The way the songs begins to end is awesome, full of emotion and heavy feelings
The guy hitting the cymbals with his bass guitar was awesome.
I had the biggest crush on Edward Furlong growing up, since we were around the same age. He took this song to heart, because he has aged horribly after living a life filled with excess including drugs, alcohol, women ( or whatever he is into) etc. Hollywood chewed him up and spit him out, as they do most child stars.
He fucked his career on his own..He had everything to succeed (the talent , charisma...) after T2 he made some awesome movies like "American History X" - "Little Odessa" or "Animal Factory"..) Hollywood has bet on him more than Leonardo DiCaprio but he has completely sunk into drugs and we lost a great actor, The Producers do not even think of risking millions of dollars on an actor who has problems of addiction..the case of Lindsay Lohan reminds me a lot of him , she was the star of the future but she just screwed up and the girls who were with her like Rachel McAdams or Amanda Seyfried became successful actresses now..
ChildoftheUniverse me too, had the biggest crush on him. Was always excited to see this video!
Edward Furling and Macualay Culkin..two car wrecks of 90s
I had a crush on him too (thanks to "Brainscan" that I rented at the videoclub)! Childhood memories. 😊
I know someone who started to listen to U2, specifically Joshua Tree, which had been in the house for a few years, because he said it was his favorite...
This song is even more relevant then today. Just keep on hanging on!
É tão bom saber que eles são como vinho! As experiências só os aperfeiçoaram e hj, continuam sendo pra mim e pra todos nós a MELHOR banda do rock ❤️🤘🏽
It's a complete trip. Aerosmith was even bigger in the nineties
More then the 70s?
Minha infância foi marcada por essa porra, eu gritava o refrão, minha mãe fica louca. Saudades. 😞
Love how Joe Perry just walks off the train tracks without missing a beat, lol. ✌️😎
One of the best badass scenes in rock videos.
@@daveallen2012I agree! 👍🔥
This band is f...ing awesome!❤🎸
I was 20 years old this song came out that's crazy
I'm a black man and I love this song still in 2024
I remember taking music off MTV when I was 10. Now I am 38 and this video was simply a masterpiece.
One of my first mail in tune orders from the music club.
@@ericparrish1515 Oh, geez. I remember music clubs lol
me too...!
This song was ahead of its time it need to be used now in 2020 because we are truly living on the edge!!
The bass drum was from Steve Tyler hi school isaw them first in 1976 @ stepping stone ranch in Rhode island
How about 2022
Livin like a hobo and lovin' it
played and replayed this friend's casette album to the hilt... he quit his job and we parted ways but this is how i was initiated into aeros' fandom
Another super fine band! We had the greatest bands ! 61 and still ROCKING❤
Una muy buena banda amazing music
Aerosmith's livin on the edge won a Grammy award for best rock vocal performance by duo or group and nominated for best rock song lost to runaway train by asylum
Always love that Steven Tyler smile to someone of the crew when he is going out of frame at 5:42
Wow I never noticed that😭so neat! 💖
This song is just POWER..❤
