John is a legend no one sounds like him he is one of kind. When you hear one of his songs you immediately know it’s him. This & Ain’t even done with the night are my two favorites. ❤️🥰🎸🎤
Very underrated artist in the UK , even by me . I'm just getting into him after years of denial - the man is superb . Check his boxset On The Rural Route , what an artist ..
Love him and his music Gene Siskel on drums... Classic! is his touring days over!?? Would love it if he came to TORONTO OR ANYWHERE IN ontario! Yes! I loved the eighties music especially when John Cougar was at his best. Love this tune!!!
This is John's song - been watching Kenny Chesney/Gretchen Wilson video. Cold shower time... But John does it all by himself - those moves, those moves. 1st video on MTV was "Jack & Diane" - a fan ever since - we'll not go into the year...
The reason Mellencamp initially omitted his surname when he first began recording in 1976 was because his first manager Tony DeFries hated it with the thought it sounded too German; he wanted him to have a more American-sounding moniker, hence "John Cougar" was born. That would change soon after the success of American Fool in 1982. Beginning with his 1983 album Uh-Huh, he finally used his actual surname, initially placing it after "Cougar," becoming "John Cougar Mellencamp," which would last through his 1989 album Big Daddy.
I wish people would stop complaining about lip syncing, it 's not unusual for shows like this to have artists do that. We all know John Mellencamp is good live too, so just forgive him this one.
Looks like he was singing live with backing drummer, the rest was just moving as if they were hooked up to amps. It's common that they would use the studio track for the instumentals.
is his touring days over!?? Would love it if he came to TORONTO OR ANYWHERE IN ontario! exelentemente interpretado me parece genial altamirano peru OMG this brings back memories.You guys are awesome.
Back in those days when artists performed in concert,they sounded just like the original recording!!! They cared about audiences but now with the many millions they make,there seems no pride in their work . Too bad!!
If John sang this live on solid gold then I can also sell u real estate in florida. This was lip synched totally and the band wasn’t even playing except to a backing track. Not one bit of this as most bands on solid gold never performed live. It’s quite obvious. Where is the organist/keyboard player by the way? Playing in the audience? Lol. This was a great tune. Thank God for MTV in the 80s. They played the best stuff back then.
I remember watching this episode of Solid Gold when I was 11 years old and falling in LOVE with John. lol. . .
Thanks for posting this.
This still rocks after all these years-go John ! Donna
