This is one of the important songs that gives The Warning their name. *Disciple, Kool Aid Kids,* and *Z* are examples of others. The literal messages in the lyrics and the metaphorical/allegorical messages in the video combine to kick us into a moment of reflection... Thanks for giving this the time! And yes, they assimilate influences from the best of many genres! Creativity is often the art of stealing and regurgitating something familiar, yet new enough to work better. These kids (in 2017) had been taught well, and paid extremely close attention to their teachers and producers. Then they became, arguably, the hardest working three-piece in rock.
I’ve watched literally thousands of The Warning reactions over the last half dozen years. Most by people with no more music background or historical Rock knowledge than Charlie the cat. I’m just gonna say it Eric, you’re the best in the business! My mind and vocabulary expand every time I watch you. The fact you don’t have 20X the subs you do is an injustice. I don’t know if you’ve ever considered it, but some fellow TW Patreon members and I were discussing what a great interviewer of the ladies you’d be. If you’re interested let me/us know if we can help make that happen. They are very humble and approachable with no diva attitudes whatsoever.
@RandyTWA. I support this 100%. They've been to Nashville before, surely they can find a reason to return? I support them on Patreon and I would gladly support a separate project in order to hear them talk with this gentleman for an extended interview. Imagine the subject matter they could discuss intelligently!
Absolutely agree; Eric does an absolutely fantastic analysis, on multiple levels. Not merely musically, but in the complex social aspects of _how_ a certain piece of music makes it's impact. This is something few people do, and it probably has to do with his long radio background. One learns quickly in that business not only what _is_ popular, but what *makes* a particular band work and develop popularity. And that's very important if a band wants to be successful. And Charlie the cat needs more pets and rubs. 😋
I am constantly blown away that three teenage (or pre-teen in Ale's case) could write such a brutally accurate social commentary! The video is a masterpiece that deserves way more views than it has gotten thus far!
This album was recorded in 2016, so it would make them 16, 14, and 11 years old (or younger) when this was written. It was released in 2017. In their January 2017 TEDx presentation, they stated that they had recently completed recording their first album and they performed three songs that were going to be on it. Incredible insight from these young composers.
To add to my previous comment, I believe the reason these girls are such successful musicians is that they all started on piano. They understand musical keys and chords, and how music sounds. I think it’s the reason that they can harmonize together. They understand what makes a song a song And their parents exposed them to lots of classic rock music. And they have fused that with all the modern music that they love.
Another good review I like how you actually revue and make notes. Recorded in late 2016 early 2017 released so Ale the bass player was 12 and turned 13 while recording. Pau the drummer was I think 14, 15 when released and Danny was 16 just turning 17 before release. The recording was funded by a go fund me campaign.
The analysis you give is the reason I watch reactor or reviewers. From your experience and knowledge, you bring words of intelligence to add to the comprehension on why I like The Warning music so much. Thank you for sharing!
i always wonder how many others notice the number on the indoctrination pod the baby is placed into... many of us think it may be a shout out to YES and their 1983 album _"90125"_ which was released two years after Yes broke up... you can find a few links to that album in its entirety... not really a music video as it is only the music but you can also find OMVs for some of the songs on that album... the OMV for the first song on that YES album also has a similar theme as this video with "culprits" and "recovery agents"... the video and whole album is a great trip back in time... so back to this original video by DPA/TW... yes, the imagery is awesome and extremely thought provoking... there's a lot being said in there... one of the main things is about taking a leap of faith and leaving things behind... this is absolutely a track about social media, technology, and how they affect people in ways they don't know or understand... in this case, everyone is so wrapped up in their devices and social media that they cannot see what is going on around them... thus the blindfolds... notice, too, the colors used... when someone takes their blindfold off, the world lights up in the prettier colors of reality... the video was nominated for and won numerous awards back in 2017... - LA CINEFEST Semifinalist 2017 - Feel The Reel IFF, Audience Award October 2017 - Official Selection Austin Music Video Festival 2017 - Best Music Video Nominee Pantalla de Cristal Festival 2017 - I Filmmaker International Film Festival Official Selection 2017 - Best Script / Narrative Music Videos Pantalla de Cristal Festival 2017 - Best Music Video Around Films International Film Festival Barcelona April 2017 (not listed in any specific order) anyway, great reaction... yes, you're not the only one to be totally shocked at that one point in the video! 😹 TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA
Growing up listening to Yes, saw them live a few times as well, I did pick up on that and wondered. Not sure how much exposure the Ladies would have to that band, would be curious if they were aware and if that was intentional. They are quite brilliant, would not be surprised if it was intentional.
@@CarlD70 yeah, i don't know if they watched MTV with actual MVs when they were small or not... they have mentioned watching concerts on TV but not if they were video tapes or something broadcast live... they do have a lot of influences from many older bands, though... plus someone on their team may have gotten inspiration from some old videos, too... unless they tell us directly, we'll never really know 😹
@@CarlD70 They watched a lot of classic rock videos with their parents. In the Allison Hagendorf interview Dany cites Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb from the Pulse show, as a song that changed her life. More specifically the guitar work. It explains a lot about her solo style, knowing that.
@@CarlD70Same here I also grew up heavy Yes fan saw them live twice and indeed you nailed it. I'm also thinking that since they're big Muse fans they may have gotten inspiration from one of their videos as well.
The kids are brilliant here. Pau is a genius. They are so good at putting together these songs. Rock band and classic rock busting loose through these kids then.
Eric, your reaction and comments are always very refreshing and on point. Really enjoy and appreciate your take on their sound. You get this band and their maturity, love TW.
I believe The Warning's early start in music infuses a refreshing and authentic quality into their work. The transition from covering songs on RUclips to creating original music adds a relatable element to their journey. In summary, The Warning combines musical talent, authenticity, and a genuine passion for their craft, which makes it impossible for me not to love both them and their music.
And "showing butt" is an expression of acceptance and friendship. My wife and I like to say they're "showing their ID card", because that's almost literally what it is. The scent of the rear end is both identification and demonstration of a cat's attitude and feelings, as well as their general health (through various pheromones and other generated smells, most too subtle for us mere humans to detect). Scent is tremendously important to cats, and a major part of their sensory lives - some say up to 75% of their total sensory input. So just accept it for what it is, although I draw the line at sniffing butt myself... 😋
Amazing video and song from 3 very young ladies most impressive. Loved Dany's solo and the stare down at the end is epic. Thanks Eric great reaction. 🔥⚡
I love the way you put in to words what a lot of us are subconsciously feeling but may be unable to express or even understand. Such a poignant song and video. I think most of us, at some level, understand the actual warning from The Warning. We see it on a daily basis hidden in the chaos of daily life but DPA has a knack of putting it front and center in a neat little package at such a young age here. This is obviously a trope that is important to them as they view the world from their perspective as demonstrated by them returning to the topic throughout their career to date. It’s up to each of us individually to heed the warning if we can?
The Warning have a sound that is both new and familiar. It is certainly hard rock, but clearly influenced by their love of all genres and all eras: metal, punk, K-pop, indie, grunge, funk, and many other genres including classical music. But they have taken those influences, both new and old, and forged a sound that is uniquely their own, and you know that it is them. At the same time simple and complex. What does it sound like to me? Refreshing. A sound that has caught my ear and made me interested in rock again after 25+ years of the same old playlist. While together their combined ages are about the same as mine, their musical maturity is exceptionally high.
Another great reaction! The Warning's observation and understanding of society at their age is incredible. Their ability to put it into excellent music is just amazing. ⚡⚡⚡🤘🤘🤘
Another great reaction, Eric. I appreciate your thoughtful insight on what these young ladies are doing. There’s something intangible about them, but I think you’re right about the nostalgia. Keep ‘em coming. Yeah, I see you, Charlie!!
So, I really enjoy your RUclips channel, and as you can probably imagine, I found it as a direct result of recently learning about The Warning. By the fate of everything good on this earth, I stumbled upon these young ladies, and I gave them a listen, as I have a soft spot for Sisters. You see, I have two amazing Daughters that I am very close to, my oldest, lives in Flagstaff, and my youngest, just lost her battle with Melanoma in January. The Warning was music we all agreed on, and by watching all of the talent the Monterey/Tre have on display via RUclips, Ive been able to occupy a bit of the empty space inside of me. So when I saw the song Martiro live @ Teatro, I was so blown away, that I felt compelled to tell you, so you could see it yourself! It is 100% in Spanish, but I promise you, it will not matter, because you will be speechless when you see it! Keep up the great work, Eric!
Absolutely EPIC song and video!! Very dark and deeps lyrics with a powerful message. Awesome! These sisters are the best power trio of XXI century! Viva The Warning!! ⚡⚡⚡
Excellent breakdown, it's amazing when you think about the fact that Pau almost didn't get to be a drummer, no one wanted to take her as a student because she was so small. Thankfully, they found Beto Ramos and he took her as a student after a test session. I don't even like to think about what the music world would have missed if Pau never learned to play drums. All three of these young women are extraordinarily talented musicians who have put in a ton of hard work to get where they are today, and they will only get better.
Another amazing reaction. I am constantly surprised at how well you describe my exact thoughts about their sound, and how it makes me feel. How they get that familiar sound but then turn it on it's ear and make it completely new.
Excellent reaction and analysis! I can picture the sisters, by themselves, in a room writing a song without anyone telling them, "No! You can't do that!". I do know that The Warning has too much respect for their fans to ever put out a substandard track. They have made sure that everything they do can be done their way. And their way is doing everything with the creative freedom that sets them apart. Every release raises the bar. That familiarity we feel comes from their influences that are everywhere in their music. What's really cool is that now, that familiarity includes their earlier recordings. Love them or not, they are just about to explode. 10 years of hard work, focus, talent, and humility is going to pay off soon. I can't wait!
Eric, the way you talk about music is really entertaining and 'inviting'. It's obvious you know and love music and you have a way of finding the words many of us feel but can't explain. Thank you for doing this! Greetings from a rainy Sweden.
Man you are good! When I saw you released another reaction and to one of The Warnings most iconic songs, I smashed that play button, and I got what I knew I would. The best and most in depth analysis of XXI´st Century blood. I love everything about this song and now I know why. I have analyzed this song my self to find out how the combined parts of it work so well. I understand you so well, the song is a masterpiece made by three teen girls who no one expects to come up with a sound like this.
Hey Eric! Great analysis. Pau sets the feel with the changing of her fills, tempo, half times, her choice of primary instrument throughout the songs, sometimes toms, sometimes cymbals, sometimes HiHat, always different from one verse and chorus to the next. Ale is the Groove. She sets the time, and the mood. She is a human metronome and never a wrong note. Dany is the Soul. She is the sugar and spice and everything nice sprinkled on top. She is a Master of her guitar and effects. To hear them live you would NEVER believe there is only 3 of them. They just run over you with a wall of sound!
I subbed! I really like your spot on observations! You point out some things that many fans feel! As you say, they sound familiar, but also create something new, unique… classic rock, alternative, punk, grunge… but always The Warning! Can’t wait to see this band in April in Cologne/GER! Thanks for your reactions, greetings from Germany 👍⚡️🤘
Have you seen the 2017 tedx yet, the 3 songs are from this album, and the talking about making it and the music industry is spectacular. The breakdown at the end is gold.
I'm still trying to figure out how they learned to speak English at school in Mexico and came out sounding like "Valley Girls" from Los Angeles. Check out their first Tedx talk from 2016. Ale speaks flawless English and she's only 11.
@@tay13666 Also, I suspect many of the teachers at that school were US ex-pats... or even "by-the-week" commuters; Monterrey is only 100 or so miles from the Texas border. People tend to adopt the accent of their teachers when learning a language, which can sometimes lead to amusing results.
I honestly love everything you say about this band, and it makes me appreciate them even more. First of all, these girls have worked their butts off to grow as musicians and songwriters and have had great leadership from their parents and manager, and they have been mentored by some very, very good musicians that have taught them their craft
These Teen girls here delivering an important message to all of us....I guess you could say "You Have Been Warned"!!! Just think, now the new generation of A-I is upon us.. things will get much more scarier going forward with A-I in the hands of those without your best interest at heart...not necessarily the "criminals" either.... the Nefarious people wear suits and ties as well. Just saying. These Ladies brilliant way beyond their years for sure. Another great reaction and commentary. Cheers. 🤘🤘⚡⚡Charlie an awesome cat BTW.
XXI Century Blood : Un tema que muestra al escucharlo un excelente mensaje, un gran riff y un bello solo de sus primeros temas que ya mostraban su calidad y talento , TW el mejor rock del 2024
In 2020 none of us could go out to clubs and concerts. That is when Nightwish invaded the internet. That was when I first made a deep dive like with Warning. Both so amazing Sustaining And existentially lifting. And you, Eric, are a dead ringer for Robert Heinlein. Thanks.
Enjoy the journey down The Warning Rabbit Hole.....its one heck of a ride! That being said....your understanding of them so early in the journey, makes it so much enjoyable to watch your commentary and analysis....and the great "DJ" voice does not hurt either! Just subbed for more!
"It's mine" stage for the cat: Hmm, that describes basically cats. He made the difference here, adding insights and depth that just couldn't come across without a lap monster as side-man.
It had been a while since I listened to this track, I forgot how good it is. Spot on about how the sound is familiar yet not familiar. Kitty is stealing the show; he needs his own channel!
I think that the girls have been exposed to so many different styles via their parents and various online arenas that they're all going to surface in a variant somewhere in one of their songs. They listen to K-Pop, alternative rock, as well as Pink Floyd, Metallica, Foo Fighters, Muse, and many others. There's a lot going on inside those heads.
Some interesting nuances from you man .Funny that you should mention about the s. Cali vibe to this song as every time i hear the song "Z" it reminds me of California for some reason and i'm English !
We adopted a tuxie almost 10 years ago. Love him to pieces, and the next time we get a new cat (may be a while; we've currently got four, although all different breeds), I'm definitely going to look for another one.
The video reminds me so much of Nightwish's _Noise_ (which you covered some time ago), and it's probably my favourite of their MVs (NW and The Warning are both very much live bands in my opinion). Our cat is not in my good books today because he came and sat on my legs at 6 this morning, waking me up...
i have got to ask, were you and your show ever on (syndicated?) radio? i remember listening to a show very similar to what you are doing now, only several years/decades back... i can't say what nights but probably late on the weekend? maybe? i quite enjoyed it as i do your show, here and now... very nice, enjoyable, and informative! keep up the good work! 👍
I've never been syndicated, but I've been on stations that streamed. I hosted a show for a short time out of Nashville, "Deep Cuts with Jake Wylde". I've never used Eric Clark as my radio name, so any Eric Clarks on the radio aren't me. I was Jake Wylde. Cheers, Eric
@@TheWyldesidewithEricClark cool! i may have heard "Deep Cuts"... depending on where i was when you were doing it... i spent time traveling across the US back in the '80s... i could have been anywhere if it were that long ago... plus if it were also (re)broadcast by other stations that might explain it, too... i will say that each time i drop by for one of your shows, i have like a huge dejavu time period and i love it! 😜😹
I think you’re onto something with the regional origins of the sound. People refer to a “classic rock vibe” but I’ve always heard, especially in this song, a Texas sound. Also including a hint of the surf, post-rockabilly mentality. I spent a couple years in the 90s obsessed with 60s surf and hot rod songs and this pulls in a lot of that feel. Most of those bands were from Southern California and the southwest in general. Of course that shouldn’t be at all surprising since they’re from the region, just a few hours south of the border.
I have been racking my brain for ages trying to figure out what that starting guitar and drums reminds me off. The closest I have came up with is Pu**y Liquor by Rob Zombie. With that said, they sound very different, but still the same in my head somehow.
This is one of the important songs that gives The Warning their name. *Disciple, Kool Aid Kids,* and *Z* are examples of others.

Outstanding idea! There would be no down side to doing this. I sure hope Eric reads your comment.
As a Patron I also urge you to do an interview.
As a former radio host and producer myself I agree with this idea. It would be an amazing interview to listen to.
Dany at 16 delivers one of the most tasteful short guitar solos I've ever heard.
Ale is “the glue”, binding them all together and keeping them grounded. Super impressive, especially back then.
I am constantly blown away that three teenage (or pre-teen in Ale's case) could write such a brutally accurate social commentary! The video is a masterpiece that deserves way more views than it has gotten thus far!

I’m about 2 week into my first deep dive into The Warning”.
Ale’s bass is the secret weapon.
To add to my previous comment, I believe the reason these girls are such successful musicians is that they all started on piano. They understand musical keys and chords, and how music sounds. I think it’s the reason that they can harmonize together. They understand what makes a song a song And their parents exposed them to lots of classic rock music. And they have fused that with all the modern music that they love.
"Gleefully unexpected". That pretty much sums up The Warning's music!
“You seek familiarity…” spot on. Our music mental models.
Another good review I like how you actually revue and make notes. Recorded in late 2016 early 2017 released so Ale the bass player was 12 and turned 13 while recording. Pau the drummer was I think 14, 15 when released and Danny was 16 just turning 17 before release. The recording was funded by a go fund me campaign.
This is how a reaction should be done, give equal attention to each member of the band instead of concentrating on just one of them.
The analysis you give is the reason I watch reactor or reviewers. From your experience and knowledge, you bring words of intelligence to add to the comprehension on why I like The Warning music so much. Thank you for sharing!
i always wonder how many others notice the number on the indoctrination pod the baby is placed into... many of us think it may be a shout out to YES and their 1983 album _"90125"_ which was released two years after Yes broke up... you can find a few links to that album in its entirety... not really a music video as it is only the music but you can also find OMVs for some of the songs on that album... the OMV for the first song on that YES album also has a similar theme as this video with "culprits" and "recovery agents"... the video and whole album is a great trip back in time...
so back to this original video by DPA/TW... yes, the imagery is awesome and extremely thought provoking... there's a lot being said in there... one of the main things is about taking a leap of faith and leaving things behind... this is absolutely a track about social media, technology, and how they affect people in ways they don't know or understand... in this case, everyone is so wrapped up in their devices and social media that they cannot see what is going on around them... thus the blindfolds... notice, too, the colors used... when someone takes their blindfold off, the world lights up in the prettier colors of reality...

In summary, The Warning combines musical talent, authenticity, and a genuine passion for their craft, which makes it impossible for me not to love both them and their music.
Kitties know when you're doing something and will interrupt you, or if THEY want something. They know what they are doing.
And "showing butt" is an expression of acceptance and friendship. My wife and I like to say they're "showing their ID card", because that's almost literally what it is.

Such a poignant song and video. I think most of us, at some level, understand the actual warning from The Warning.

This is obviously a trope that is important to them as they view the world from their perspective as demonstrated by them returning to the topic throughout their career to date.
It’s up to each of us individually to heed the warning if we can?
That blend of retro and their inevitable modernity I think, is their special sauce and gives them their unique sound! Great reaction.
The Warning have a sound that is both new and familiar. It is certainly hard rock, but clearly influenced by their love of all genres and all eras: metal, punk, K-pop, indie, grunge, funk, and many other genres including classical music.

Thank you again Eric!! I love your reactions and your educated discussion of what we hear!!
When I was growing up we called it "Fuzz Tone". For sure retro and Dany seems to use it a lot.
She just loves noisy guitars. I love the way she just lets her PRS ring on forever while singing live.
Just listened to this album again today. At the time the album was written they were mature years beyond their ages.
Brilliant song from a brilliant band ..they always have a message ..Danys solo is incredible
Absolutely EPIC song and video!!

Eric, the way you talk about music is really entertaining and 'inviting'. It's obvious you know and love music and you have a way of finding the words many of us feel but can't explain. Thank you for doing this! Greetings from a rainy Sweden.
Such a brilliant band. The technique is intentional. Once again great analysis. Thanks for posting this.
Thoroughly enjoyed your reaction and especially your analysis (as usual).
Man you are good! When I saw you released another reaction and to one of The Warnings most iconic songs, I smashed that play button, and I got what I knew I would. The best and most in depth analysis of XXI´st Century blood. I love everything about this song and now I know why. I have analyzed this song my self to find out how the combined parts of it work so well. I understand you so well, the song is a masterpiece made by three teen girls who no one expects to come up with a sound like this.
Hey Eric! Great analysis. Pau sets the feel with the changing of her fills, tempo, half times, her choice of primary instrument throughout the songs, sometimes toms, sometimes cymbals, sometimes HiHat, always different from one verse and chorus to the next. Ale is the Groove. She sets the time, and the mood. She is a human metronome and never a wrong note. Dany is the Soul. She is the sugar and spice and everything nice sprinkled on top. She is a Master of her guitar and effects. To hear them live you would NEVER believe there is only 3 of them. They just run over you with a wall of sound!
I subbed! I really like your spot on observations! You point out some things that many fans feel! As you say, they sound familiar, but also create something new, unique… classic rock, alternative, punk, grunge… but always The Warning! Can’t wait to see this band in April in Cologne/GER! Thanks for your reactions, greetings from Germany 👍⚡️🤘
This song is wild fire🤘🤘🤘
Nice observations and analysis 👍
and yes,
put down the damn cell phones 🚫 !
Rock🤘😎
Have you seen the 2017 tedx yet, the 3 songs are from this album, and the talking about making it and the music industry is spectacular. The breakdown at the end is gold.
Both TEDx are a must see not just the second presentation.
totally ON POINT
Thank you, Eric. Great comments as always.
You hit it exactly. Every new song I hear sounds like I know even though i don't. It is comfortable.
I'm still trying to figure out how they learned to speak English at school in Mexico and came out sounding like "Valley Girls" from Los Angeles. Check out their first Tedx talk from 2016. Ale speaks flawless English and she's only 11.
They were in an English immersion school. Everyone in the school was bilingual.
@@tay13666 Also, I suspect many of the teachers at that school were US ex-pats... or even "by-the-week" commuters; Monterrey is only 100 or so miles from the Texas border. People tend to adopt the accent of their teachers when learning a language, which can sometimes lead to amusing results.
Awesome job Eric! (And Charlie too!)🐱
I honestly love everything you say about this band, and it makes me appreciate them even more. First of all, these girls have worked their butts off to grow as musicians and songwriters and have had great leadership from their parents and manager, and they have been mentored by some very, very good musicians that have taught them their craft
These Teen girls here delivering an important message to all of us....I guess you could say "You Have Been Warned"!!! Just think, now the new generation of A-I is upon us.. things will get much more scarier going forward with A-I in the hands of those without your best interest at heart...not necessarily the "criminals" either.... the Nefarious people wear suits and ties as well. Just saying. These Ladies brilliant way beyond their years for sure. Another great reaction and commentary. Cheers. 🤘🤘⚡⚡Charlie an awesome cat BTW.
More than a reaction, an intelligent analysis. Congrats
XXI Century Blood : Un tema que muestra al escucharlo un excelente mensaje, un gran riff y un bello solo de sus primeros temas que ya mostraban su calidad y talento , TW el mejor rock del 2024
Great commentary! New sub from The Warning Army!
In 2020 none of us could go out to clubs and concerts. That is when Nightwish invaded the internet. That was when I first made a deep dive like with Warning. Both so amazing Sustaining And existentially lifting.
And you, Eric, are a dead ringer for Robert Heinlein.
Thanks.
Excellent reaction
Enjoy the journey down The Warning Rabbit Hole.....its one heck of a ride! That being said....your understanding of them so early in the journey, makes it so much enjoyable to watch your commentary and analysis....and the great "DJ" voice does not hurt either! Just subbed for more!
Can't wait for more reaction videos! Everything out there is AMAZING! Enjoy it!
You nailed it.....they're comfort food for the mind....
You have perfectly explained my thoughts on this band ❤
Love their earlier works. Solid rockers with a great video too. I hope they keep their older songs in rotation
Dany doesn't do a lot of solos but when she does they're 🔥🔥🔥
I love how you callef the message before they even started singing. Get out of the virtual world and appreciate the real world.
With chromatic flamenco classic Mexican influence thrown in too
Love the cat!
"It's mine" stage for the cat: Hmm, that describes basically cats. He made the difference here, adding insights and depth that just couldn't come across without a lap monster as side-man.
Casting to my 75” TV.
It had been a while since I listened to this track, I forgot how good it is. Spot on about how the sound is familiar yet not familiar.
Kitty is stealing the show; he needs his own channel!
I think that the girls have been exposed to so many different styles via their parents and various online arenas that they're all going to surface in a variant somewhere in one of their songs. They listen to K-Pop, alternative rock, as well as Pink Floyd, Metallica, Foo Fighters, Muse, and many others. There's a lot going on inside those heads.
Some interesting nuances from you man .Funny that you should mention about the s. Cali vibe to this song as every time i hear the song "Z" it reminds me of California for some reason and i'm English !
Silly ol tuxedo kitty.
We adopted a tuxie almost 10 years ago. Love him to pieces, and the next time we get a new cat (may be a while; we've currently got four, although all different breeds), I'm definitely going to look for another one.
Wow amazing reaction 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Your cat is amazing, love cats, and I think is absolutely beautiful.
The video reminds me so much of Nightwish's _Noise_ (which you covered some time ago), and it's probably my favourite of their MVs (NW and The Warning are both very much live bands in my opinion). Our cat is not in my good books today because he came and sat on my legs at 6 this morning, waking me up...
And this was 2 years before Noise by Nightwish!
🤯🤘🎶☮️
i have got to ask, were you and your show ever on (syndicated?) radio? i remember listening to a show very similar to what you are doing now, only several years/decades back... i can't say what nights but probably late on the weekend? maybe? i quite enjoyed it as i do your show, here and now... very nice, enjoyable, and informative! keep up the good work! 👍
I've never been syndicated, but I've been on stations that streamed. I hosted a show for a short time out of Nashville, "Deep Cuts with Jake Wylde". I've never used Eric Clark as my radio name, so any Eric Clarks on the radio aren't me. I was Jake Wylde.
Cheers,
Eric
@@TheWyldesidewithEricClark cool! i may have heard "Deep Cuts"... depending on where i was when you were doing it... i spent time traveling across the US back in the '80s... i could have been anywhere if it were that long ago... plus if it were also (re)broadcast by other stations that might explain it, too... i will say that each time i drop by for one of your shows, i have like a huge dejavu time period and i love it! 😜😹
Beautiful cat. I like tuxedos.
I lov ur analysis. Long life to TW!
Nice
It only takes one person to make the leap before people start removing their blindfolds.
Like number 666🤟
Beautiful Cat 🤘
This won some awards. Their video productions in Mexico blow away similar companies in the US. They sill do this track once in a while.
I think you’re onto something with the regional origins of the sound. People refer to a “classic rock vibe” but I’ve always heard, especially in this song, a Texas sound. Also including a hint of the surf, post-rockabilly mentality. I spent a couple years in the 90s obsessed with 60s surf and hot rod songs and this pulls in a lot of that feel. Most of those bands were from Southern California and the southwest in general. Of course that shouldn’t be at all surprising since they’re from the region, just a few hours south of the border.
I have been racking my brain for ages trying to figure out what that starting guitar and drums reminds me off. The closest I have came up with is Pu**y Liquor by Rob Zombie. With that said, they sound very different, but still the same in my head somehow.
🤘🤘🤘
My friend... The Warning and Michael Starr LIVE/Highway to Hell (Eric Moffat) please
🤘
🤘🏼
Thanks Eric. - very informative. And thanks for dismissing "made it their own"
The Warning is 100% 🔥 Greetings from Argentina
They are young but their instruments are in mayfly years.
