-Our Intro Song "Feel the Love" From Alex's band
open.spotify.c...
Could not escape this album in 1983...it was everywhere. HUGE.
It was always playing in my sister's room.
I've had the vinyl for eons, but last week I finally got the cassette tape. It sounds so sweet on some vintage headphones and cassette player.
AMEN!
@@californiahummus ha ha ha haaaaaa
and that play off reversed snippet still freaks me out a bit when I hear it...right after an amazingly atmospheric final track.
Def Leppard 's Photograph is a timeless classic! Awesome song!!
👋🎶🎶The entire Pyromania album is great, not a single 'skip' song for me.
Quintessential early 80s production.
@David-iv6je Produced by Mutt Lange, so yeah, spot on.
go back and checkout their first 2 albums On Through The Night and Hi and Dry...raw rock and roll...Pyromania is an awesome album..but more mainstream
checkout Hit and Run
Next: "Foolin'!" Gotta do it.
Yes, and don't wait another 3 years.
Absolutely. I was thinking the same thing. They kind of go together...along w/ "Rock Of Ages". A powerful triumvirate.
Yes !!’
This was 83 and the drummer Rick Allen lost his left arm in a car accident in 85. But stayed with band and played on 87 album Hysteria onwards. I was reading about him and found this quote "What I've experienced through losing my arm, I wouldn't change. The human spirit is so strong."
I wouldn't say that Rick "stayed" with the band. He told the guys he was done and they refused to let him leave. They told him to figure it out. THOSE...are friends.
Yeah, Rick was in the hospital and feeling really down and basically told the band he was stepping down to allow them to hire a new drummer. They basically said "If you quit. We quit. You're our drummer.. now rest up so we can go from here."
and he was only 15 when he joined the band and 19 on this album. crazy.
And, he is a fabulous artist. His paintings are gorgeous!
@@lilamuzik3385 That’s cool 👍
Not long after the release of this album, drummer Rick Allen lost his arm in an automobile accident. He relearned how to drum with one arm and the band never considered replacing him. Always admired them for that.
Worked with an engineer designing the build of his drum set. What a love for music.
His band mates believed in him too!
Never threw him under the bus either!
"Not long after the release of this album, drummer Rick Allen lost his arm in an automobile accident."
Karma is a bitch.
He rolled his Vette.NightRangers drummer filled in for awhile.
hello captain obvious
"Bringing On The Heartache"
Love that song!
Which version?
But with switch 625 as well. Only way to do it.
@@oksotheresthat6185 That's the one!👍
My favorite Def Leppard song!
This album was a complete game-changer.
Finally, the song and music video that launched their career. 😎👴
Not their first hit, but was their breakout HUGE hit
@@oceanbluebandflorida Yeah. First single off Pyromania. I think they had "Bringin' On The Heartache" before, and that song made a big impression, but it wasn't a hit like this song.
Yeah, this went top 40 and got play on pop radio. No doubt that it was the cornerstone for the rest of their success.
yup i remember rocking tf out to the video on mtv - this song was HUGE
Def their transition to "Pop Metal"
"Bringing On The Heartbreak" should be your next D.L. song. Its the first song where they found the sound that would define them.
They gotta do the switch 625 version.
they only do reactions if ya pay them fool. your suggestions are a waste of time
This wasn’t their first hit, but it was their first HUGE hit aka breakout hit
Let it Go and Bringing on the Heartbreak on the previous album are must listens BEFORE you jump ahead to 87+
*Let It Go
I'd also add the title track from that album, High 'n' Dry... Total banger.
High n Dry should be a whole-album listen.
Yeah I think Bringing on the Heartbreak put them on
the map first
@@Lord-ElpusThey actually did Let It Go on a livestream. They didn’t mention it. Alex loved it.
Hook after hook. A normal human band could make 3 songs out of this. What a package.
And the hysteria album has even more hooks
The Golden Production Touch of Mutt Lange is ALL over this and every Def Leppard track on this album, like he was the sixth member of the band.
I’m 57 now and that was a huge hit when I was 16. It never gets old !!
Love DL!! One of my favs !! Let’s get rocked another good one !!
62 here!! Never gets old !!
RIP Steve Clark !!! 😢
60 here!! SAME!
Goosebumps all these years later... I remember that summer well. Stunning production by mutt Lange. No one layers a sound like Def Lepard💞
It’s 40+ years but the chorus still gives me chills. ❤️❤️❤️
It’s hard to overstate just how big this band and album was in ‘83 and ‘84. You couldn’t escape this song and album, and rightfully so. That’s why their 4 year hiatus between this album and Hysteria had fans in a frenzy.
One of the best rock songs ever recorded. Period.
I don't know everything they did, but this has been my favourite Def Leppard song for as long as I've had one. A perfect blend of the grit of British metal with the wide-screen gloss of American rock.
100
Yeah...they were once directly placed in the British Wave of Heavy Metal, and you can hear it early. They gained a lot of versatility when they got Phil Collen into the mix...
I went to see them in the mid-80s. They put on the best show. They played "in the round". Not a bad seat in the house. The stage rotated as they played, making it even better.
Same!! 87😊
Leppard & Tesla in the round
Yep! To this day I still say it was the best live sound of any concert I've been
@@remohio I'm not quite sure who opened for them when I went, but I kind of think it was Queensryche. I saw them in Baton Rouge and liked them so much, I saw them again in Biloxi.
I was 11 in 83 when I first heard this.. and FOREVER DID IT DOMINATE MY EXISTENCE!
Great song. My first exposure to Def Leppard. Heavy rotation on MTV in 1983.
"Love Bites", "Hysteria", "Do You Want to Get Rocked", solid gold!
I lived in a Dorm when this came out and I swear if you walked through those halls at any time you could hear a track off this album
MTV Friday Night Video Fights! This song won for weeks! Deservedly 🥰
You are still the kings of reactions. Excellent commentary A&A.
agree 110%
I was in junior high when this song came out. It hit like a ton of bricks. We couldn't get enough of it. I would wait by the radio for the station to play it again lol. Didn't know who Def Leppard was before this.
I was in high school and pretty much the same story for me.
This was an MTV super song when it came out.These guys couldn't drink in the bars they played in. They were only 16 to 18 years old when they started getting exposure. Barely 22 when this came out.
I have this on vinyl! Bought it with my allowance 💰 😂
Um, that's a nice thought, but not quite true. Their singer, Joe Elliot, was born in 1959, so he was 23 or 24 when this dropped. It was their third album. They released their first album in 1980. He was 21 when that came out. I didn't check on the other members.
@@mikecaetano Rick Allen was born in late 1963, so he was still 18 when they recorded Pyromania. It was released less than two months after he turned 19. Joe Elliot was 23, Steve Clark 22, Phil Collen 25, Rick Savage 22, and Pete Willis 22. All pretty darned young to have an album this big!
We were issued this album in ‘83. Everyone owned it. They ruled the world.
Mutt. Lange. All that gooey multi-layered harmonic production. 🙌🏼
Going to see Def Leppard end of July with Journey and Steve Miller Band.
This was the first cassette I played in my first car back in 88. I left it on my dash and it melted while I was at work. 😢
I really like Def Leppard's first two albums the most, when they were a young hard rock band but you cant blame them for going for the money. This is their most popular album, along with the even more commercial Hysteria. The first couple albums had Wasted, Let it Go, Rock Brigade. High N Dry, and Bringing on the Heartbreak. React to some of these, especially Wasted or Let it Go.
@@coxscorner Pryomamia was polished but still had the grit of the early albums. For me the grit was lost in Hysteria due to overboard big 80's production.
This song takes me back to my high school years EVERY time I hear it.
Rode my bike up to the neighborhood Kroger in the Spring of '83 (at age 15) and bought this album on vinyl.
The incredible story of the drummer losing his arm and not giving up but creating a new drum kit that allows him to not only help make the epic follow up, Hysteria, and a massive tour. That's unbelievably inspiring.
Next from the band has to be all of these, "Bringing on the Heartbreak", "Love Bites”, “Foolin’ and "Too Late For Love”.
Def Leppard changed the game with pyromania. Literally.
🎸A must, also from the Pyromania album, Foolin’‼️
Fun bit of trivia:The snare drum that was remarked upon... Lars Ulrich was unhappy with his snare drum's sound, so he borrowed Rick Allen's snare to record "Master of Puppets." Rick is thanked in the liner notes.
And if you see the video, you realize the song is about Marilyn Monroe.
Even though an MM lookalike is in the clip, it's not specifically about her. According to Joe it's about wanting someone you can't have. All you have is their photograph.
Bringing on the Heartbreak, from High n' Dry - 1981; even if on the heavier side and probably not the kind of song you'd feature on your show; it's worth checking!
Massive hit, basically their big break out hit. Takes me right back to high school when most of us were introduced to Def Leppard. This song is a time capsule for me.
Def Leppard are more than just a band....they are a family,they stuck by each other in the worst of time.....they could easily have replaced Rick Allen on drums but they didn't and they were millions in debt with the making of Hysteria
When one mentions Def Leppard this is always the first song that comes to my mind. This, Rock of Ages and Foolin' were the big 3 from Pyromania.
Class of '83 here. I played the damn grooves off this album back then.
Same!❤
I had this record. And this cassette. God bless Columbia House Records, who gave our whole neighborhood every album we ever wanted, for just one cent.
You still owe them money don't you?
@@jwccsnm OMG so much money. We had the records; we had the cassettes. We would even get the codes from the monthly subscriber catalogue, and input those codes in to the 12 for a penny mailers, and get free albums they never intended to give out for a penny. We just blatantly ordered whatever we wanted, and that first penny was all they ever got.
😂 So true!!!
Def Leppard used to have their stage in the center of the venue with the crowd all around, which made for more good seats but required that they work that much harder by running all around. They deserve credit because they were one of the biggest bands in the world anyway and didn't need the extra hassle to sell tickets
Some of us who’d been listening to rock and roll radio for years had liked DL since “Hello America”….but this album blew them UP in the US!
Pretty much anything from this album is worth a listen!
'Animal' is another great Def Leppard song. They have many!!
Love these guys. Great musicians and really good guys.
First Def Leppard song I heard was Let it Go and it remains a favorite till this day!
This song was all over the radio in the early ‘80’s. You nailed the reasons why. Hooky as hell, slickly produced, well executed arena rock. MTV was big in those days and the video got saturation play. Terrific reaction.
Never a top tier band for my taste but I saw them in concert last year and they were so tight and so professional and, honestly, super fit. They look like they run 10K's regularly. I was pretty impressed.
such a banger. I give it an S tier because those last 30 seconds really are the best in the song. The fading with that i wanna touchhhh part is so good.
Great song. Still played daily on rock stations. Will never get tired of hearing it.
I have always enjoyed some Def Leppard. Photograph is a great tune... Also loved their songs Animal and Armageddon It. Good stuff! Glad you liked it! Love you guys! 😄
Foolin' is another banger from the same album!
This song (and the Pyromania album itself) exploded like a bomb all over AM and FM pop and rock radio when it dropped back in ‘83.
Foolin' and Too Late are 2 other bangers off that album
This album came out when I was in high school and it's still one of my favorite rock albums of all time and my fave Def Leppard album as well. This one, Rock of Ages and Foolin' are 80s rock classics
Me too I was 16
There was a top 9 at 9 countdown for requested songs that day on the radio station 'The mighty 92 MJQ. At one point in '83 the top three songs were Photograph, Rock of Ages and Foolin'! Pyromania was so popular and influential. Great react, Alex and Andy.
Bringing on the heartache!!!
first album I ever bought...from front to back it is fantastic!
When rock music WAS pop. Not because it sounded like pop, but because rock was popular.
Seen these guys live. Bang on. No lip syncing. They rock live and a class act.
This was the first Def Leppard song I'd ever heard/seen on MTV back in '83, I believe it was. I was so young - 19 and now I'm 60. OMG lol But I LOVE Def Leppard - so many amazing, fun songs and Joe Elliott has one of the greatest rock-n-roll voices of all time. He has that grittiness and can hit those high notes!
Love Def Leppard. One of my absolute favorite bands. Sheer exuberance and fun wrapped around fabulous musicality.
One of the best lines from the 80's: "Look what you've done to this ROCK N' ROLL CLOWN."
I was 14 years old when this was released and I wore out the cassette tape over that summer. I thought every song was so good. Sadly, 14 year old me couldn't afford to see them in concert on this tour.
How about "Photograph" by... Ringo Starr!
The whole Pyromania album is ridiculously catchy.
First band i ever saw in concert when they did their tour for this album. 1983 i was 13! Great show!
hit as many as you can...or are recommended. Great band. I was 10 when this came out. Still kicks ass to this day. Thnx guys.
My second favorite album from them, the first being Hysteria. So looking forward to see them in concert in august along with Journey and Heart 🤘🏼 Still have the original cassette of Pyromania 😊
One of the great pop rock tracks ever.
Deep Cuts: Mirror, Mirror (Look Into My Eyes) or Comin' Under Fire.
Imagine its 83' cruisin in your camaro around your local town. New stonewashed jeans, air jordans and blasting this song throught the Kraco speakers. I loved the 80's.
What made it even more remarkable was having your own badass time machine, which made it possible to jump forward to 1985 when Nike released the Air Jordan.
Iconic 80’s right here! 😁👍✌️
This was a big hit! They caught that MTV wave, and "Photograph" had a good music video for the time. I saw them in Wichita, Kansas at the Kansas Coliseum when this song was everywhere. I was 15 years old, and the girls in my group just HAD to be at the very front. There were no assigned seats back then, so once they opened the gates, we made a mad dash toward the stage. We got there, and I remember being up against the barricade feeling like the crowd would crush me, and it was great! Billy Squire opened. Ticket prices were $11. Good times!
This album was a MONSTER in '83. So many hits and Photograph was on constant rotation on MTV -- back when MTV actually played videos 24-7. Ah, the good ol' days. But as huge as Pyromania was, it doesn't compare to Hysteria. Now that was a JUGGERNAUT. Long live Def Lep! 🤘🤘🤘
I was in high school at the time. This was a HUGE hit. It was EVERYWHERE. Def Leppard took the world by storm that year.
Something told me when I first heard this song in '83 that they were going to have a long career. It's well deserved. I've always been impressed with how they stayed together when Rick Allen lost his arm.
The whole album is insanely great 👍 ❤
My favorite "patriotic jam" in Suite Madame Blue by Styx (Dennis DeYoung) from the Equinox album in 1975 in honor of the upcoming Bicentennial.
"Another Hit and Run" off their "High-N- Dry" album shows them at their rawest best. Their whole " High-N- Dry" album is worth a listen.
When I was 18, this came out and my future husband sang it to me constantly. Our grandson just turned 18. :DDD
This really makes me smile and tear up at the same time. I was 26 and living in Dallas when this song was released. It reminds me of such great times, being young and living in a dynamic city.
Simply put, a pop metal masterpiece
Me and my friend used to listen to them all the time back in high school but of course we still like and listen to them now
I was in high school when this came out. Went and saw them in concert on that tour. Had seats in the last row of the upper deck. We could touch the ceiling. They were pretty bad seats, but once the lights went down, we became gradually enveloped in a cloud of smoke (not tobacco) rising from the people below, and after a while we didn't care how bad the seats were.
Still love Def Leppard! They are the soundtrack of my teen years. They have been put the wringer and just keep going.
"Hysteria" by Def Leppard . It's their best for me!!!!!
1983, Charlie Pascal lived next door in Barnard Hall and he’d blast Photograph every morning at 05:30 as we were getting ready for morning PT.
Saw them twice on the Hysteria tour. Still the best concerts I ever attended.
Hit the 'High N Dry' album fellas.
1983, crusing in Cortez, CO in my 82 pace car replica Camaro and living the best life operating heavy equipment on the pipeline. Great times!!!
Their first album On Through the Night is often overlooked. Rock Brigade and Hello America are awesome tunes!
WASTED🤘
Class of ‘85 here. I lived overseas and music didn’t travel as instantaneously as it does now. I’d come back to the States every summer and always remember my older cousin introducing me to the latest music. The memory of hearing this album for the first time is clear as day.
Although, the first albums we purchased together in the summer of 1977 were Led Zeppelin IV by me and Styx Grand Illusion by him. He said then that Styx would end up to be more popular than Zeppelin.
He’s probably listening to Yacht Rock now.
Just absolutely a complete masterpiece the whole album
This was part of the 2nd English rock invasion era. Gotta hit some from their High N Dry...very underrated album that has great bangers.
Def Leppard rocks to this day. I can't wait to see them this summer.
