I'll be 51 years old on 5th June 2023( 2 days to go) and I've never heard of this great sounding band from the eighties before. THINK I must have been a teenage Def Leppard fan when Black'N Blue were at their most popular. Probably was a living in Northern Ireland thing.🎸🥁🤘
I was there in the audience for that video. I remember it like yesterday. We ditched school to go to the shoot lol 😂 It was Downtown Los Angeles in the middle of the day. Who would have thought that the guitar player would later join KISS 💋 😘 Great memories and I can clearly see myself in front at 2:46 🤘😝
Best gift from the Parents is music my dad gave me the 40s and 70s music, my mom Beatles and classical music, born and raise on the 80s what else can I ask to life?
@@jakobwiberg9536 I'm sorry you disagree but I have always wondered when people say they did something "back in the day" if people ever did things at night too 😆
@@jimbo0707 yeah ofc, i do understand you actually but it isn't always that appropriate to ask that. and again i do understand you, but this seems to be more of a friendship.
I discovered this song back in 2018, when I was 12 years old. I'm 18 now and I still love it. I think this underrated gem should've been a hit, but I like it this way; it's my little secret ❤
So last night at a local Casino (Ilani) Tommy Thayer was there promoting his Wine. First time I ever met him, so got to talk to him briefly. I mentioned (like my earlier post) that I went to high school with Jim Pond (AKA Jamie St. James). He even brought up the High School band Jet that Jamie was the drummer of. Really nice guy to talk to. I could have conversed with him for hours but didn't want to be a pest.
I remember seeing these guys at the Holiday Star Theatre in Merrillville, Indiana on Thanksgiving night about a hundred fucking years ago. Yngwie opened for them! These guys shoulda been huge. One of my all time favorites.
i am 25 years old and i share your opinion absolutely , i am also into youtube when i want to listen something decent and not the crap on TV , radio or elsewhere .
THE LOST BOYS 1984,😎😎😎 DAMN........ this video song still blows me Away!!!! this music brings back the great memories!!! of growing up in the middle of 80's👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 BEST MOMENT, that never coming back😥😥 TANKS MTV & VH1clasic videos!!!😁😁😁 cheers🍺🍺🍺🍺 to Everyone out there!!!!
I know you made this post 3 years ago. Just wanna say I saw them on that tour too. It was 1987 in San Diego for me. They melted the frigging walls. Great band, great show !!
It's neat to find this video. I went to Cleveland High School with the lead singer, he was the drummer for our rock band JET. His original name is Jim Pond before changing it to Jamie St. James. They were a hell of a good rock band but lost track of Jim after he graduated. I later saw that he formed and new band Black 'N Blue and became the lead singer instead of drummer but unfortunately never saw them before they moved to LA. Fun to watch and remember the days gone past.
The best thing about the 1980's was, that I was in my 20's during that decade and I got to experience all of these kick-ass rock bands live in rock bars and at large concert arenas back then. Wouldn't trade those days in for the world. 😎👍
So awesome! I remember this video shoot!! Like Phyllis Hall said..... I so miss HAIR BANDS!!! So me=any memories and they were nothing I could ever forget!!
Need a 1980s hard rock time machine!!! Miss the 1980s- early 1990s best times of my life!!! Such nostalgia!!! Like "Hot Boy" glam hard rock band!!! Both bands are great!!!
In the shadows, we all let go Walk away before it breaks our hearts Dreams can fall through, trouble finds you Who will hold us in our darkest hour Heartache callin', we can't hold it in now Find a way we'll make it through the night I'll be there for you When you need someone If you get lost down a dark, lonely road I'll play on your side You can count on me, just say the word and I'll Be there for you Be there for you On the ouland, see the empty faces Turn their eyes away, don't hear your voice Find a true friend, you're a rich man Live a little and have too much choice Friends and lovers, shouldn't be like strangers We've come to far to ever turn away I'll be there for you When you need someone If you get lost down a dark, lonely road I'll play on your side You can count on me, just say the word and I'll Be there for you Be there for you And it hurts to be lonely It's the coldest game in town Won't be afraid if we only Oh, just let it out (Solo) I'll play on your side You can count on me Just say the word and I'll Be there for you Be there for you I'll be there for you Na na na na na Na na na na na na I'll be there, I'll be there Na na na na na Na na na na na na Na na na na na Na na na na na na
Man, I hate when people do this..."I can't think of nything to say, but I've just gotta say something. (Pause) Duhhhhhh...I know! I'll post the lyrics! No one ever does that (yeah, right)! People will like that! (like they can't look them up somewhere if they really want to know)."
Strange to see Tommy with blond hair 😂 didn't know the band until I saw a posting on facebook in a Kiss Fan Group a few minutes ago. Cool music. Have to listen to more of their catalog.
Jack Russell's Great White brought me here. Jamie St. James sang "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" in the absence of Jack Russell in Montclair, CA (01-25-2020). We were told Jack had the flu. I hope he's feeling better.
In my opinion black n blue’s best album is their 1988’s In Heat. It’s a fantastic album and such a shame they split up at that time. Geffen records didn’t do much at all for the band as far as I’m concerned and then once Guns N’ Roses was being supported by geffen in 87-88 most of their time and money went towards GnR and I completely understand but just wish black n blue would’ve got more love👍🏼
John Strika It's not his fault, Gene and Paul makes him and Eric wear the ace and Peter makeup. Also Paul is the one who designed their characters so Ace doesn't own it..
This song makes me happy. I am 50 and I used to listen to it when I was 17. Nasty Nasty still one of my favorite albums!

Still have the vinyl..Yeah those were great days..Class of 89 here..Cheers

Wow that's so freaking sick! 🎸 which one are you? 🎸🖤
Lucky man....
My dad loved this song. gave me most of musical taste. Rip dad
Best gift from the Parents is music my dad gave me the 40s and 70s music, my mom Beatles and classical music, born and raise on the 80s what else can I ask to life?
How did this band not make it huge is a mystery to me.
came to late
The singer- he has no range. Too many non-descript members.
@@thewaragainstcars 6ix9ine singer has a wide range
They kinda resemble the Stone Temple pilots of the hair band era
@@yell0wberry lmao I can’t believe you would compare these bums too a great band like STP. Jeeeeeesuuuus
I used to hang out with Tommy Thayer back in the day!! In between Black N Blue and The Tommy Thayer Band!!! Awesome band
ShellieMiller1 did you ever hang out with Tommy Thayer at night? 😄
James Ratzburg Thats a perfect question😃...NOT...😑

Thayer is with Kiss now.
It’s almost 2020, who’s here!?!? And where in the hell did the 80s disappear to?🤟🏻☠️🌚
Ya I’m sad about that I love the 80
They went back underground their successors overseas mostly.
Kickass!
Some of us are still here bro

And me Hammersmith odeon
I saw these guys at my very first concert when I was 14.
They opened up for Saxon and the headliner Yngwie Malmsteen.
I know you made this post 3 years ago. Just wanna say I saw them on that tour too. It was 1987 in San Diego for me. They melted the frigging walls. Great band, great show !!
Oh hell yeah!!!! Awesome shit!!!!
So that’s when yngwie mamlmsteen played in the band grim reaper n their big hit was see you in hell my friend,
Future kiss guitar player
Future fake Ace Frehley.
@bobgomez9481 future spaceman and great musician you mean?
Hold On To 18 was the first song I listened to by Black and Blue.This song is awesome too.
Best hair metal band
I'm going to see them tonight in Portland!

WOW !!! I'm Watching a VHS Tape Of MTV GUEST VJ Jan 20 , 1987 With Paul Stanley & Gene Simmons This was the 9th video of 10
A great tune, with excellent showmanship, and exceptional talent. What is not to like?
*Istanbul here ....* 🤘🤘🤘
I lived in Istanbul back in 2012. Miss the bakeries on every corner
Great memories there

In the shadows, we all let go
Walk away before it breaks our hearts
Dreams can fall through, trouble finds you
Who will hold us in our darkest hour
Heartache callin', we can't hold it in now
Find a way we'll make it through the night
I'll be there for you
When you need someone
If you get lost down a dark, lonely road
I'll play on your side
You can count on me, just say the word and I'll
Be there for you
Be there for you
On the ouland, see the empty faces
Turn their eyes away, don't hear your voice
Find a true friend, you're a rich man
Live a little and have too much choice
Friends and lovers, shouldn't be like strangers
We've come to far to ever turn away
I'll be there for you
When you need someone
If you get lost down a dark, lonely road
I'll play on your side
You can count on me, just say the word and I'll
Be there for you
Be there for you
And it hurts to be lonely
It's the coldest game in town
Won't be afraid if we only
Oh, just let it out
(Solo)
I'll play on your side
You can count on me
Just say the word and I'll
Be there for you
Be there for you
I'll be there for you
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na
I'll be there, I'll be there
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Man, I hate when people do this..."I can't think of nything to say, but I've just gotta say something. (Pause) Duhhhhhh...I know! I'll post the lyrics! No one ever does that (yeah, right)! People will like that! (like they can't look them up somewhere if they really want to know)."

I came from the future Tommy.....dont worry you' Il be in a best band.....believe me
I always wondered what kind of metal B&B played. I have my answer: glam-metal to the max!
awesome song. awesome band.
it is a great song love it the best way to listen up...
I loved this band in the 80's
Who is watching and listening in 2019
2020. :)
2021!!!
3/7/2021
Black 'N Blue are awesome. 😀👍🤘🎸
Can't understand why this wasn't a hit
really ??!
Mark Mark Absolutely. It's perfect for its time
Turd Ferguson 100%. As I already said it’s perfect for this era. Lots of ballads were hits and most of them were no better than this
It is
@@bosanceros1377 Well it wasn’t
Heavy metal was so real, girls were so naturally gorgeous.. No bottox. no TV bullshit
The 80's..those were amazingly fun times. :)
Best era off rock!
First time hearing this right now...thumbs up for keeping positive music alive even in hairy metal 🎶 😅
Black 'n Blue ROCKED! "Woop" wuz' COOL !!!!
The good ole days when music was music
I forgot all about this one! But Jamie's jumpsuit brings it all back! Hey, it IS hooky!
If the Friend Zone had a national anthem this would be it
Awesome 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Grande banda 🎶🎹❤️
i grew up listing to these guys now i am a guitarist for glam band now ty hair metal lolz
Jack Russell's Great White brought me here. Jamie St. James sang "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" in the absence of Jack Russell in Montclair, CA (01-25-2020). We were told Jack had the flu. I hope he's feeling better.
this is great! good looking boys
I love it!!
I'm here in September 2024. I Just Came Upon This 🎵 ❤🎉😊
Never heard this song until it was played on hair nation on Xm radio how was this song not a big hit.
MTV didn't push the hell out of it.
2:33 - 2:42 I love it
This song is so good
I say this hair metal should come back
March 2021 STILL HERE & ALIVE
Sure!
It's still around.
Bands like H.E.A.T. Eclipse, Dynazty, WET are doing this right now
I agree
@MultiDogfight same here, and i'm 12. i love this music!!!
I dont think you are 12 no more
Happy song !
One of my favorite solo's at 2:32

I remember seeing this band getting booded off the stage and being bummed because I really loved this song.
They weren't very good live. They were awful when they opened for Kiss at MSG back in the early 80s
Hair we go now. The good old days. You had to be there back then. Glad I was. Great scene, great times, fun music.
Amazing Tommy Thayer !!!!!
Milton ferreira taccolini Lol amazing? Dude makes a living pretending to be Ace Frehley
yep
John Strika It's not his fault, Gene and Paul makes him and Eric wear the ace and Peter makeup. Also Paul is the one who designed their characters so Ace doesn't own it..
@@johnstrika9170 He's better than Ace
Great live band. More than just Tommy. Should have been huge. St was the man
No Words ❤
Tommy Thayer on guitar!!!! The new Kiss' spaceman!!!!
Best era,awesome music,awesome hair,awesome girls,all about 80's' rock & metal music was awesome

トミーは、本当老けないねー。
黒青時代も今のKISS時代も変わらず、いい男だわ。惚れ惚れするよ。
