Funniest part about Bills rant against this 80s music and his seemingly, apparent criticism of hair metal, glam rock, is deep down, you can tell, Billy still LOVES this crap!! Classic NOSTALGIC Bill
I can understand it. I was showing someone limp bizkit. And i was like “i used to listen to this cringey shit” (not having listened to it in years. I put on rollin, and i was like “oh fuck i still love this piece of shit”
80s metal might have been corny and over the top but those guitarists absolutely annihilated. You had to be really good to play guitar in a rock band back then.
@@xviphoenix69 I thought grunge sucked. You didn't really have to know the instruments to play it well. But that's just me. If you liked it, thats great. The lyrics weren't very fun either.
As an avid fan of 80s rock myself, listening to Bill Burr roast it mercilessly is absolutely hilarious in every sense of the word. I can't stop laughing, seriously, hands down, one of the best comedians ever!
I still play JUDAS PRIEST, DIO, IRON MAIDEN, DOKKEN, Lita Ford, Scorpions in my cars, the best driving music. I had hair almost to my waist in the 80's but now at 54 have to do the shaved head dome, it works.
The thing is Judas Priest, Dio, and Maiden are actually good bands, they weren't this hair metal shit lol. Same with like Metallica, Slayer, and Pantera. These bands never went out of popularity like the hair bands did.
I'm 55 and listened to all this back then and still do to this day. To me it was the best. I guess I'm just an old man stuck in his ways, but I will be banging my head till the day I die. Now, get off my lawn!!! 🤘🎸🖕
I had to sit through Warrant and Poison for a little blond girl that I just could not get enough of. She was one of those girls from the 80's that you saw on posters. Slaughter, was when she realized I was running out of patience. It was like a BS story out of Penthouse. We had a Geology class together at the end of the day and she asked me if I would ditch it with her and take her home. I said sure. When we got to her house she told me that they had just gotten a new pool and asked if I wanted to check it out, sure. This was in early April and it was still chilly out, so my dumb ass didn't put two and two together. We checked out the pool and then she asked if I wanted to see the bikinis she bought for the summer. It was that time in your life when you thought maybe, but your not sure, and you just hope, but don't have it figured out yet. That is how hard that question hit me! I was like OK!!!! Three hours later, right before her Mom was going to be getting home, I HAPPILY agreed to take her to see Janet Jackson. That's right! She liked Janet Jackson too. That was a great summer. I took her to see Maiden just to turn her to the dark side, she didn't care. What a GREAT summer! I still like Janet Jackson.
Thanks for having this 80's recovery meeting. It's just good to know that I am not alone in the struggles with my/our past. Thanks for sharing, it was brave of you. I kicked in 1989 with the help of 60's music and Janes Addiction.All we can do is admit to our past to try to show others there is hope for recovery. Remember kicking the 80's is not done through attending reunion tours because first it will be Ratt or Poison then you will find yourself banging your head to Winger or Jackyl thinking how bad ass you still are.
I have just stopped to justifying my love for them. Fuck that what the others think. Maybe I'm an adult now. I don't give a fuck. Try have a happy 2021 my brother.
@@davidpierce9949 always thought yeah a lot of 80s music was terrible and a lot of bands had like 5 good songs and a lot of cheesy horrible music. But Bill loves AC DC which is also terrible music 😂
I got the Shout At The Devil album for Christmas 1983 when I was 17. Imagine unwrapping that in front of your religious parents and smart-ass siblings.
Anyone ever notice that Bill has PERFECT pitch?!? Whenever he sings a song, and you go to the clip, it's (almost) always in the right key, & right on pitch! Impressive. Noticed in other videos too like the "Star is Born" one...
Not only that, but I always noticed he has really good recollection in general, from word for word lines said in tv shows/movies and tv ads, details in clothing , etc.
I was watching Saturday Night Fever today, and it dawned on me that the lyrics are "More than a woman". As a kid I thought it was "Bald headed woman". Live and learn.
I was never into these bands back in the day, but I think this stuff is better than most of the current music today. Iron Maiden Number of the Beast. One of the greatest metal albums ever! 😈
This was my high school in the '80s. All this music sucked, and everyone loved it. Some of us had no fucking clue what was going on because this music truly sucks.
Bill and I are about five years apart and when I hear him talk about living in the 80s and 90s I know we would have been friends. Now when I hear him reflect on the 80s and 90s he reminds me of my grandpa.
I know the BeeGee's weren't cool, but they were brilliant songwriters. They just had their biggest hits in a genre that's aged poorly. (Disco, anyone?)
I think the hate for disco was a bit unwarranted. Maybe at the time there was a lot of bad disco that has since disappeared, but to me it seems the era came and went. It was short, sweet, had some nice things to offer but didn't overstay its welcome. But that's hindsight. Probably at the time people wished it would just end already.
In 1980 I was 14 but my memories are very fond because I liked a wide variety of music. As for rock, I loved a few of the new metal songs (not a fanboy of any band) but mostly listened to old school heavy and prog rock. Great memories! 👍
"I'm going to do a bunch of dishes in an evil-way gloves." Holy hell. hahaha There is always one random line in these short Bill Burr videos that just kills me.
Bill couldn't be more off about girls not being into hair/glam metal in the 80's. That was the fanbase. Girls ate up that music which was all about love and guys who wore makeup and teased their hair like they did. That's a known fact. The heavier shit of that time (Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, etc) is the music that did not attract the girl fan base, but bands like Van Halen, Ratt, Dokken, Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Guns N' Roses, Poison, Cinderella, Warrant, etc, DID.
That's actually really true. I think really the women didn't like the music, but more so the shallow appeal of it, which were just all about the looks. Hell even Megadeth Metallic etc were still visually pleasing at the time lol.
Shit I lost mine to A Touch of Evil by Judas Priest and Half of Rock You To Hell by Grim Reaper 😂 Although I'm only 25, my dad always said what I listen to was just a phase but I still have yet to grow out of it
Yeah this Bill guy is a loudmouth prick that's pissing all over something that a lot of us love. And all because this Bill loser couldn't get laid. Hell he probably still doesn't get laid and own a blow up doll and has a cabinet stocked full of lotion. F@ck you Bill. You $uck dumb@$$. 🖕🤬🖕
Come on bill you are two years older you can not can not fuck up wasp with motley and those guys got à LOT of pussy locking like bitches and you did not get laid in high school well thats brutal.
You're absolutely right, Bill. I can only listen to about 10% of the shit I liked when I was younger. And I'd also like to take a moment to damn the late 80's completely to hell, just in general.
If you graduated high school before 1989, then you probably love this music just like I do (class of 1988). If you're 1990 or later then you probably like Tone Loc, Vanilla Ice, Bel-bib Devoe, and all that shit from the early 90's in that short time window between 80's metal and Grunge. I feel bad for those people. They probably liked the Power Rangers too... ugh... Listen, we're all guilty of liking what ever was popular when we were between 15-18 years old. As a 51 year old man, I've seen this cycle over and over and over. I see it today with my kids. I play 80's & 90's music for them, but they keep going back to the current shit thinking it's the best... You could do a whole comedy special on this... so many things to cover, so much that's relatable to everyone... Thanks Bill... you fuck'n fuck!!!
90 here. And the last concert I saw was Ratt, October before the pandemic. (My first was Monsters of Rock L.A.Coliseum 1988. Yes, two riots that day. Watch ICONS w Kirk from Metallica. There’s a part of it in there. Plus it’s really great.) Anyways, Heavy F’in’ Metal! 🤘🏼
Nah... I'm the same age and other than maybe Def Leppard I never liked this shit. I listened to a lot of music 50's/60's/70's, country, Blues, Rockn Blues, but hair metal turned my stomach at age 14.
Ratt songs actually hold up over time, compared to the rest. Definitely more cheese than whizz as a whole. But, the music today ain't gonna hold up either. Talk about cringe.
@@thefirstkitandkaboodle No, just no to the Crue and Cinderella holding up. I mean to 'hold up', you'd have had to be something in the first place. No offense, but the whole hair metal period was atrocious.
@@longbeach7623 Well, it was crap when it came out, and it’s still crap today - so I guess, it’s holding up.🙂 Listen, maybe you were 14 then and rocking out to Crüe, so I get the nostalgia. But while new generations are discovering the brilliance of the Beatles or Joy Division or Radiohead or Pixies or Nirvana - again and again - nobody today (or 10 or 20 years ago) are discovering hair Metal - and should they by accident hear and see some it, they are perplexed (and, frankly, horrified), that it was ever popular.
@@dandansen571 let me guess, hipster sjw, occupy Wall Street, Bernie Bro underachiever with a studio apartment full of pinterest coffee art? Oh and gender neutral bathrooms, that’s a given.
I can't help but bow my head listening back to the Bee Gees. More Than a Woman is a great song along with all their hits. We just hated them at the time because of over exposure. They stand up so much better than a lot of the 80's party "metal" music. I hated the Bee Gees back then but at least I hated that 80's "metal" music too.
Thought just like Bill did when I was 16 in 1984. Chicks were going to dig the fact I listened to a certain type of music and wore a denim jacket with racing patches on it ( plus my car was loud with racing mufflers on it) What a dope I was !
I loved all these bands back in the day.....Sometimes still a guilty pleasure....The music isn't the best but it makes me remember the simple times rocking out in my room at my parents house. My father called it too. Came home one day and all my records were gone.....But little were they ready for the Gangsta Rap revolution that happened next.
the difference between Bill and i when it comes to musical tastes of our youth is my musical revolution roots start at my brother literally throwing a London Calling CD at my head and saying "listen to good music". my mom would let me listen to the couple of Green Day and Blink-182 songs on the radio (and this was just barely pre-internet so if you were cool with 1 song, you had to buy the whole album hoping more jams than duds)...and the nail in my nostalgia coffin was not long after, a friend who sent me a care package of 90's MA/RI local punk/hardcore/emo bands. i know the music i listened to in HS was bad....but that was the point, and the bands i liked were really good at being bad. it wasn't to impress anyone, it was a giant FUCK YOU to society. when you're a pissed off disenfranchised kid hitting high school the same time as the myspace boom, all the hair metal shit really looks like a dated waste of time.
Music is obviously very personal but I agree a lot of this music is not listenable any more. It looked so easy to jump on board and write a tacky song that so many bands were writing terrible things that would fly. Its like the fact it was so tacky and artificial a lot of the time is what helped eventually push bands like Nirvana and Metallica to fame as they tried to represent the opposite of what people didn't like of the heavy music then.

80s metal might have been corny and over the top but those guitarists absolutely annihilated. You had to be really good to play guitar in a rock band back then.
If it wasn't for metal, i would have never started playing classical guitar. Yngwie Malmsteem was a guitarist that inspired me to play classical.
Great point. Most great guitarists had long hair so maybe some of them got confused with talentless hair band hacks.
80s rock was the best. Sure corny in some respects but they were getting laid left, right and center. So there.
@@joeb2588 Grunge sounded better.

But they didn't really understand that tortured soul up on the stage bearing his heart and whipping his hair around.
@@christiangomez320yeah I’ve been saying that for over 25 years about Punk rockers. Let’s all be different together
Round & Round and Lay it Down actually has some killer riffs, love those songs.
Ratt still rocks! Even today.
Warren Demartini is an absolute beast on guitar. I got love for Ratt lol
She Wants Money is my favorite 80s guitar solo.
Warren D is great.
I loved and saw Ratt in the 80s. Their opening band? Some group named Bon Jovi.
80’s Rock is fun af! That’s all it needs to be 😂
I will always love 80's rock

The way he sings the David Lee Roth song is hilarious
This is basically the entire soundtrack for " The Wrestler "

90 here. And the last concert I saw was Ratt, October before the pandemic. (My first was Monsters of Rock L.A.Coliseum 1988. Yes, two riots that day. Watch ICONS w Kirk from Metallica. There’s a part of it in there. Plus it’s really great.)
Anyways, Heavy F’in’ Metal! 🤘🏼
Nah... I'm the same age and other than maybe Def Leppard I never liked this shit. I listened to a lot of music 50's/60's/70's, country, Blues, Rockn Blues, but hair metal turned my stomach at age 14.
I'm making a playlist out of what he's criticizing, it's all fantastic.
80s rock is what I mostly listen to while I do cycling in the weekend. LOL. I know Bill loves this shit, otherwise he would not remember the songs.
Ratt songs actually hold up over time, compared to the rest. Definitely more cheese than whizz as a whole. But, the music today ain't gonna hold up either. Talk about cringe.
Cinderella, the Crue, and the "White" bands still hold up. So does most new wave from 80s.
@@thefirstkitandkaboodle No, just no to the Crue and Cinderella holding up. I mean to 'hold up', you'd have had to be something in the first place.
No offense, but the whole hair metal period was atrocious.
@@dandansen571 Dr Feelgood definitely holds up.
@@longbeach7623 Well, it was crap when it came out, and it’s still crap today - so I guess, it’s holding up.🙂
Listen, maybe you were 14 then and rocking out to Crüe, so I get the nostalgia.
But while new generations are discovering the brilliance of the Beatles or Joy Division or Radiohead or Pixies or Nirvana - again and again - nobody today (or 10 or 20 years ago) are discovering hair Metal - and should they by accident hear and see some it, they are perplexed (and, frankly, horrified), that it was ever popular.
@@dandansen571 let me guess, hipster sjw, occupy Wall Street, Bernie Bro underachiever with a studio apartment full of pinterest coffee art? Oh and gender neutral bathrooms, that’s a given.
Its a lot better than the music that’s popular today. A lot.
I can't help but bow my head listening back to the Bee Gees. More Than a Woman is a great song along with all their hits. We just hated them at the time because of over exposure. They stand up so much better than a lot of the 80's party "metal" music. I hated the Bee Gees back then but at least I hated that 80's "metal" music too.
HADOKA TAKA WAH WAH.!!!! 😂👏🏼
And then Billy discovered Slayer- South of Heaven
Their best song by far
@@tonyiommi2380 what about mandatory suicide?
And hair metal was OVER
Thought just like Bill did when I was 16 in 1984. Chicks were going to dig the fact I listened to a certain type of music and wore a denim jacket with racing patches on it ( plus my car was loud with racing mufflers on it) What a dope I was !
Bill: Rattling off what he calls shitty bands and shitty songs.
Me: Hey now! That was my workout playlist yesterday.
yeah, the most mainstream 80s rock is crazy shit, especially that crime against humanity called AoR
I loved all these bands back in the day.....Sometimes still a guilty pleasure....The music isn't the best but it makes me remember the simple times rocking out in my room at my parents house. My father called it too. Came home one day and all my records were gone.....But little were they ready for the Gangsta Rap revolution that happened next.
They don’t need to be guilty pleasures a lot of them are genuinely good
Bill loves 80s music. Don't know why he ripped it apart in this bit.
the difference between Bill and i when it comes to musical tastes of our youth is my musical revolution roots start at my brother literally throwing a London Calling CD at my head and saying "listen to good music". my mom would let me listen to the couple of Green Day and Blink-182 songs on the radio (and this was just barely pre-internet so if you were cool with 1 song, you had to buy the whole album hoping more jams than duds)...and the nail in my nostalgia coffin was not long after, a friend who sent me a care package of 90's MA/RI local punk/hardcore/emo bands. i know the music i listened to in HS was bad....but that was the point, and the bands i liked were really good at being bad. it wasn't to impress anyone, it was a giant FUCK YOU to society. when you're a pissed off disenfranchised kid hitting high school the same time as the myspace boom, all the hair metal shit really looks like a dated waste of time.
We looked at this shite from the other side of the Atlantic in utter disbelief.
Can’t say I blame you. It was terrible.
Music is obviously very personal but I agree a lot of this music is not listenable any more.
It looked so easy to jump on board and write a tacky song that so many bands were writing terrible things that would fly.
Its like the fact it was so tacky and artificial a lot of the time is what helped eventually push bands like Nirvana and Metallica to fame as they tried to represent the opposite of what people didn't like of the heavy music then.
Artificial?
Any body who still just quotes "nirvana" as the biggest band ever is really just a clueless parrot.
@@indegruv exactly, Nirvana simply started another idiotic trend
@@FrancescoDiMauro True.. took the great "I wanna party & have a good time!" Trend. To depressing..." Life really sucks & I want to die!" Strange how a great deal of Seattle stars kill themselves
