Saw these guys in concert back in 88, and Kip sounded exactly like he does on record...... it was live, but it was obvious the guy could sing. No tricks or gimmicks like today......
Saw them live back in the day. It was in Marquette, MI. They were playing with Slaughter & Kiss. Wow, that was a fun show. Kip Winger had one of the best live voices I've ever heard.
Top 20 tune and video of the era. Simple, straight-forward with a touch of mystery, musicianship and stage presence are classic. Quite a masterpiece of flowing rock music. Notice how every dramatic change melts with each other and seems like a well-loomed musical tapestry. Solid classic tune that never gets old. That's the true test. Winger scored with this one.
Nobody sounded like this band, the style, look and overall package was really different when they broke. Every member of this band had a resume a mile long before they formed up. Top notch musicians who could write catchy hooks at the same time. That is a rarity in this type of music.
Managed to sneak backstage at a Winger concert my junior year in high school. I was 17 and when I met that "hot, too much of a man Kip". I said some pretty interesting things to him. He was a gentleman and thanked me for my complements. Oh, the things we do and say when we are young!
I've seen Winger way back in 1989 with Bulletboys and Badlands ( awesome band ) opening for CINDERELLA at the Shoreline ampitheatre in Mt view, Ca. ive never seen so many women like that before. lots of women everywhere
I used to love this song when I was young then I heard my daughter play it in her fast car with her loud stereo and she was 17 and then I thought "OH HELL NO!!!!!!!" lol I do really love the song still though :)
Sherie Marie. I was there too. lol. also saw that show in Knoxville. I've been to over 200 shows. I used to follow Metallica around before they were on MTV. seen them 14 times before 1991. and I've always said that Reb Beach was the best guitarist I've ever seen live. ( until Lindsey Buckingham in 2009 ). Reb blew me away. unbelievably underrated
Good Lord!!!!! Loved me some Winger! I remember ditching school with my little sister, running all over Chicago to find Kip, who was making a radio appearence and claiming it was my 17th birthday... Yeah, I was 15..... Ahhh, those were the days!!!!
People make fun of these bands now, but let's think about this. They all played their own real instruments, there weren't many bass and drum machines and the singers could actually sing not needing heavy auto tuning. So they had bad hair and dressed terrible, who didn't in the 80's? Great song and hot video!!!
80's bands are just the best rock music - I will listen forever.........like the KISS song God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you Put it in the soul of everyone
So many bands were jealous of Winger, but they in their own right are über talented. They would knock Kip for his good looks and tried to smear the musicians' reputations as awesome performers by saying everything was taped, but it wasn't. Winger was a band full of talented men, just a shame they got caught up in the industry in the late 80's when grunge was on its way in.
Agreedon Winger and Dokken....Slaughter was pretty kick-ass too. Today's music, even the so-called metal doesn't have the killer guitar riffs that it used too, so sad :(
Winger is gonna play at Sweden Rock this year, can't wait to see them!! I think they deserve(d) more fame cuz they're in my top 5 favorite hair metal bands, the other 4 being Warrant, Ratt, Cinderella, White Lion among many others that i still like extremely much!
Frank Di is right. They came in too late, just around when grunge was hitting the scene. Couple years sooner, they could have grabbed hold better, but they slipped away, thats too bad, they were good.
pwaaa!!! vous avez dit groove metal!! a faire pâlir extreme pour la zic! motley crue pour les paroles... moi qui suis fan du hard des années 80, la ça gère grave!! solo de tueur!!
Now that's music. He plays really well. I blame producers/media for not letting today's musicians take their talent as far as they could without interference.
shes ''only'' 42 now
The solo is an absolute masterpiece.

i love this kind of music! 80's FOREVER!!
I was 17 when this came out...I thought he wrote it for me. Didn't he??? lol
If you are listening to this at an unnecessarily loud volume you are awesome.
Child of the 80's here. Had the jean jacket and long hair. Still have a jean jacket \m/
This guy should be in a toothpaste commercial...
Reb Beach!! Dude can flat out play.
I'm 18 and I flipping luv this song!!! I so wish i grew up in the 80s, so bad!!!
Saw them live back in the day. It was in Marquette, MI. They were playing with Slaughter & Kiss. Wow, that was a fun show. Kip Winger had one of the best live voices I've ever heard.
One of the most underrated hard rock guitar riffs ever written...........
Only seventeen... love this song! It rocked back in the 80's and still jams today!

"She's a magic mountain!" Brilliant, this tune qualifies as a guilty pleasure. . .

Wow! They all look like they're having such a good time.

how were there so many good guitarists in the 80s?!!?
I used to love this song when I was young then I heard my daughter play it in her fast car with her loud stereo and she was 17 and then I thought "OH HELL NO!!!!!!!" lol I do really love the song still though :)
Cracks me up that KW isn't even trying to look like he's playing over the backing track while the other guys are.
I LOVE 80s HAIR METAL
Love this track, brings back memories of actually having hair. ;)
Loved it then and love it now!!!
The vibe was so energetic and happy back then.
I just bought a Winger T-shirt. We're going to make this band cool again. These guys are incredible musicians!
Yea that guitar solo is the best part of this song .....

I love Winger and this is the best song. Takes me back. Kip still is hot
Winger & Dokken had the best Guitar playing... it's not that we are getting older, it's just that, today's music... well, you know.
Agreedon Winger and Dokken....Slaughter was pretty kick-ass too. Today's music, even the so-called metal doesn't have the killer guitar riffs that it used too, so sad :(
OMG - I was head over heels for Kip Winger back then...
is anyone really listening to all the off time drumming here? there is a LOT more to this song than people realize....
Reb is awesome. He did a guitar workshop in my town last October and... I ... missed it...
