I'm 13.5 billion years old and in all that time I have rarely heard such a hypnotic riff. Rock on Uncle Ted! And rock on to all my brothers and sisters in the Metal multiverse! \m/
Im 106 years old and i remember back in 1907 i first heard this when i was climbing mount everest on the way to school. There has never been a single song better than this one ever
Oh yeah I remember you I went to the same school (Everest) man that was a hell of a walk to school up hill both ways in the snow and no oxygen , remember we would throw snow balls at old green boots 😅
For anyone lucky enough to be young during the late 70's early 80s, we experienced the greatest musical explosion in history. My grand kids and great grand kid can't believe I'm still rocking every day to this great music. Ted was one of the best. Rock On People.
I was also young in the mid-70s and all through the 80s, and yes we did have the greatest music explosion in all of history!! I'm a drummer and I've been playing since 1968. There's no better music than rock and roll and there has never been 🎉
I cruised around blasting this when I was eight years old with my dad I’m now 42 and cruising around blasting this with my eight-year-old daughter ❤️😎🤟🏻
58 is simply a number. I don't look or feel 58! If you saw me in person you wouldn't believe I'm 58. I look more like 40. Time hasn't changed me a bit. Who cares about age? 60s and 70s music is where it's at!!
Yes. I have seen Ted Nugent in concert 5 times in the 80's and 90's always awesome brutal kick ass concert, huh? What? Sorry my ears are still ringing.
I was going to Uncle Teddy's concert when Skid Row would open for him and ticket prices for the whole night were only $6.50 ... 1975 Angle Stadium, zztop, Uriah help, Eddie money. Blue oster cult, point blank, Johnny and Edgar winter and of course ( California Worthington & his dog spot) aka Bengal Tiger.. That was a $ 10.00 dollar event. Thats how us 65yr olds partied back in the '70's 🤪
I am sixty three years old and just had robotic Double Bye pass surgery Ted found out and called me a couple of times while I was in the hospital to make me laugh and lift my spirits and before he hung up he talked to me about his next phone call, he was calling a veteran that was losing part of his leg. Ted is such a great guy and does so much behind the scenes that people will never know about. He is a great guy and a great friend.

This album was released in September 1975 & 49 years later "Stranglehold" is still the baddest kick-ass rock song on the planet! This is real Rock & Roll!
One of the top 10 instrumentals as well right up there with some of if I do say so Edward van Halen & Pink Floyd stuff their instrumental artistry is untouched buy by God Uncle Ted is right there awesomeness for sure!!!
After I got back from Vietnam, I landed a job playing security at concert venues. We’d escort acts from the plane to the stage etc etc. I met a lot of groups. Ted was the only one that treated us like his equal, very cool. He talked to us. Invited us to his trailer pre show. Food. No drinking as he never drank. What a great guy. Took pics with us, autographs. Can’t say enough good things about him. 99% of the other acts I covered were complete assholes. One guy we were told don’t look at him or talk to him or he’ll get upset. People can say what they want about Nugent, but he was a very nice genuine guy
Thank you for serving (volunteer or not) back when so many were against people that wore the uniforms. My sweetie is retired USAF (Vietnam era) and also a big Ted Nugent fan. I love to hear that guys like Nugent can still remember how to be a real person, not just a 'rock star'.
This used to be one of the hard rock songs in the rotation at our barracks parties in Germany. Beer, 🍺 booze 🥃 along with a few of smokable items. 😈 Great memories!

I was born January of 1976.. My Mom was a Hippy/flower child, I grew up to some of the best music ever, classic rock straight out my Moms belly❤. I'm forever greatful for amazing music & being raised by a hippy Momma!!
I remember one time when I was driving into Pittsburgh from the south hills and this song came on 102.5 WDVE. Right when I came out of the Fort Pitt Tunnel with the iconic view of the Pittsburgh skyline was where the guitar solo peaked. It was probably the best road moment I have ever had in my life, as both the view and the song married perfectly. I literally thought I was going to have to pull over somewhere out of sheer delirium and excitement. A good song will do that to you in in the right moment and surroundings.
First heard this in 75. Never heard anything like it before. I wore out a Chevy Nova riding the backroads of Greene County Tennessee listening to this. Also drove my mom nuts with this cranked up in my room. I just couldn't understand how anyone could NOT like this. I still love it - I will love it till I die.

I saw Uncle Ted in concert over 40 years ago, it was awesome!! I think he should have been inducted into the Rocking Roll Hall of Fame a long time ago. People get all up in arms about his politics, whatever, the man can shred!!
At the time Ted was playing i dont he was all that politically biased. But, now is a totally different planet, people lose their shit if you call them mam, or lady, miss, or whatever. Saw a video the other day a cabbie picked up a fare, and complemented the woman after she said he had a nice cab. He said "thank you Miss" Well, she had a hissy fit and said why are you labeling me with that gender description. Jeese Louise, all he did was say thanks Miss, and she has a tantrum. Unbelievable
Same , born in 73 , and yes I agree BUT their is a younger generation that are realizing that and are stepping up . I have found tons of younger bands and solo artists just on RUclips alone.
A couple months ago an older man with a long beard went by my house on a motorcycle BLASTING this song you could actually hear it from almost a mile away, coolest man ive ever seen....
Don't' forget his KILLER rhythm section on bass and drums! Those cats are laying down the bedrock for him to do his aural psychedelic painting on TOP of that.
I used to build sound systems for cars and trucks and this was my test song. This is a musical masterpiece. With a very broad spectrum of audio tones it lets you know the limitations of the speakers!
If you can't be heard audibly from 5 city blocks man just don't embarrass your business or your self it's ridiculous right who does that pigeons seagulls no flying rats...
Old School never dies ! Keeps the youngsters wondering what came before they were born. Explore youngsters. There is so much music, stories, and history I wish you knew about. Your life would be richer, and your perspective would be wider. God bless anyone who wants to explore. Instead of accepting what you’ve been told. 🙏✌️😎
Just living life going with the flow now... Lost my grandfather two years ago lost my grandmother last year and just lost my little sister. So just flowing and gliding. Without all those that hurt me in between oh yeah and beat cancer right before my little sister passed. So yep just flowing.... Letting the river run it's course.
@Yeolita that brydland - Gibson in Ted's hands puts out some fantastic riffs And sound! He's still putting out that terrific Ted music! He probably will live To 100 and still play.
What's an old head I'm only 33 I've heard this since I was like 12. But hey glad you found it now better late than never. It's sad to see that people even my age never heard good music but it's okay I don't hate you for it. Hah
Yeah but.. audio systems today are WAY BETTER. Shoot the sound system in my Ridgeline is better than my full aftermarket Jensen system in 1986 ever was.
Shortly after my grandma's death, I got her radio and held it up high. I said, " talk to me, grandma". I plugged in the radio and turned it on. This song was playing at that moment where it says, "Some people say you gotta die someday; I got news, you never gotta go". I listen to this song all throughout the year randomly but I ALWAYS make sure I listen on 2-27...
Alter, absolut genial. Als 16 Jähriger war ich schon überwältigt, von dieser Stimme und Wucht und Dynamik deines Gitarrenspiels. Heute, mit 62 hat sich daran absolut nichts geändert. Du bist ein wahrer und genialer Musiker mit sehr viel Emotionen. Mein Cousin, 7 Jahre älter und in Berlin lebend, hat mir in meiner Jugend von seinem Erlebnis eines Konzertes erzählt. Die Technik war damals noch nicht so weit. Allerdings konnte er in der Konzerthalle diesen Sound von Stranglehold, der ja qauasi rund um läuft, in der Halle erleben. Er war damals auch total begeistert von dieser Wucht. Gott segne dich Ted. 👍🤣 0:01
My wife and I do concessions for our Son's high school baseball team and this is the song I play for their intro. Nothing beats watching these boys playing air guitar.
@@fred721 don’t believe everything you read about him. His MAGAt, bigoted politics ruined his music for me; saw him live several times in late 70’s. Peace and carry on💞.
Yep, and at 74 he's still alive and playing. Guess clean living does help. And he's a Patriot. Someone who loves and believes in the U S of A. If the haters could get past their rage they would see he speaks truth and common sense.
Fun fact. December 10, 1976, was a Friday. That was the day I turned 16 and got my driver's license after school. I got to go on a date and was allowed to take the family truck. Ted nugent music, a girl, beer. It was the start of many good times in the 70s
I was 13 when this came out, I still have the original vinyl. I saw him play at Notre Dame High School in Harper Woods, Michigan. Ted will always have a special place in my heart.
Mike, I went to Notre Dame High School. Graduated in 71. Saw Ted and the Amboy Dukes there when their album came out, Marriage on the Rocks/Rock Bottom.
Uncle Ted, I just learned that this song plays very well on my piped-out Harley. Even better, the stereo volume on Bamalam (her name), goes clear up to "50"! Thanks for all your contributions to us Americans over the years. Thanks for Spirit Of The Wild! Great music and philosophy! Thanks for your STAND on 2A! And for the rest y'all: If you have a sewer back up and your house starts filling up with sewage, do you raise the ceiling or pump out the crap? Your choice is coming in November.
When I was a child I heard this. My dad grew up to it. I am 36 years old now and can't stand any new music now. We have drifted away from great music like this. Long live sweaty Teddy!
As a 14 year old kid, this Album was the reason I got into amps, pre-amps, diamonds stylus needles, dampened turntables and built my own killer speakers with horns, tweeters, mid-range, and 15 inch woofers. Mom and dad hated it when I turned it on so did the whole block of neighbors. I still have that original Album along with my concert stubs. Ole Ted came on stage swinging off a hell of a rope. What a generation of Hard Rock musicians. Blue Oyster Cult, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Styx, Kansas, Grand Funk Railroad, Bauchman Turner Overdrive, Led Zeppelin, Moody Blues, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, ZZ Top, Jefferson Starship, Black Sabbath, CCR, the list goes on and on,,,
Ted s MUSIC was great..... politically O.M.G. : a boomer guy who supports another guy, who just cares for HIMSELF, living only his (aggressive) Narcism, followed by millions of idiots, who even now don t realize, that he want to become CAESAR OF THE US, beiing almost 80, just like your other grandpa, guys, who s at least a democrat !
I don't always listen to Ted, but when I do, so do the neighbors.
They probably show their appreciation of good music by inviting the cops over
I don't always learn my lesson , but when I do , you can bet your ass it was the hard way
Uncle Ted is BAD to the bone!!!!!

I saw Uncle Ted in concert over 40 years ago, it was awesome!! I think he should have been inducted into the Rocking Roll Hall of Fame a long time ago. People get all up in arms about his politics, whatever, the man can shred!!
Ted belongs in the Rock N Roll HOF the same way Dennis Rodman belongs in the Basketball HOF (which means he fucking does)! 😂😂😂
Seperate the art from the artist
At the time Ted was playing i dont he was all that politically biased. But, now is a totally different planet, people lose their shit if you call them mam, or lady, miss, or whatever.
Saw a video the other day a cabbie picked up a fare, and complemented the woman after she said he had a nice cab. He said "thank you Miss"
Well, she had a hissy fit and said why are you labeling me with that gender description. Jeese Louise, all he did was say thanks Miss, and she has a tantrum. Unbelievable
makes me love him more
Me too!
I played this song to my goldfish. He’s a shark now.
nice one.!
Hell I bet it would turn anybody into a 🦈!!
🤣🤣🤣
Was going to let the dog out while this song was playing. He had other plans... Geez this doghouse smells,
Your fig tree is taking bites barked white
This song instantly adds ten horsepower to anything
Just got a sound bar for the smart tv. It's sounding GREAT right now.
That sounds low... :)
Also causes anything to turn into slow motion
Diego Serrato 10 hell more like 100
Especially getting Drunk as I am right now🤘
If your listening to this song Your a real Champion in my book rock on folks
This is the song the Marines blasted through loud speakers out into the dark desert night in Iraq, during operation desert storm in the 1990's.
I thought that was 'Hell's bells' ACDC
Play who made who and anything judis priest lol
No
Like you were there 😂
Awesome!!!
This is the definition of a masterpiece
👍💯%
You said it! 🤘🏻
You
Are
Not
Wrong!
Hell yeah!!!!!
It's redneck music
This is a kick ass song.i'm 52 years old today kids these days don't know what real music is
❤
Same , born in 73 , and yes I agree BUT their is a younger generation that are realizing that and are stepping up . I have found tons of younger bands and solo artists just on RUclips alone.
You'd be surprised 🤘
Amen Brother
Roger that
The guitar is something born out of Ted’s body. Very few can own it like he does.
Dimebag.
A couple months ago an older man with a long beard went by my house on a motorcycle BLASTING this song you could actually hear it from almost a mile away, coolest man ive ever seen....
We were some Wild and Crazy Guys and Gals back in The Day!!!
@@terrymuzy7772 seems really fun
In my top 10 most badass songs ever recorded. His guitar work so underrated.
Don't' forget his KILLER rhythm section on bass and drums! Those cats are laying down the bedrock for him to do his aural psychedelic painting on TOP of that.
Im 63 now, still the best music ever made, rock on, baby boomers!!!!
Exactamundo brother 💖
Exactly!
Don't forget Robin Trower BRIDGE OF SIGHS . 😊
I hear ya!! 💪💪
Same age same thought...rock on
I used to build sound systems for cars and trucks and this was my test song. This is a musical masterpiece.
With a very broad spectrum of audio tones it lets you know the limitations of the speakers!
If you can't be heard audibly from 5 city blocks man just don't embarrass your business or your self it's ridiculous right who does that pigeons seagulls no flying rats...
INTERESTING....!!
absolutely. i find it as a mids feeler.
Old School never dies ! Keeps the youngsters wondering what came before they were born. Explore youngsters. There is so much music, stories, and history I wish you knew about. Your life would be richer, and your perspective would be wider. God bless anyone who wants to explore. Instead of accepting what you’ve been told. 🙏✌️😎
Man, old people are so badass. I wish I could've been alive to see music like this in concert.
uncle ted is still alive and kickin go see him live
Alive and still a badass going on tour again next year
Yes we are!
I saw Ted in my home town in the 70s he played a White guitar it was great
You can. He still tours and is a BADASS in general!
Saw Ted almost 40 years ago and this song is still an anthem of Rock and Roll hands down. Thanks Ted.
Me too! Seen him in Rockford Ill. !974!
Say that shit
😂
✌
Not a big fan of Nugent but if people don't like this they don't know great classic rock and roll...
Agree
A liberal I can get along with lmao
Pour moi un des meilleurs solo du rock.
I Am 70 years ago I came into this world .STILL ROCKING!!!!!
Bien raison!
I'm 67 yrs young and have been listening to and going to Uncle Ted since 1974. Go motor city Mad Man you Goooo!
Mon night...29thmay I still play it since I was a teenager now 61 I love especially the drums but how could I resist that guitar .sturdy ...yeah !!!!!
Then you can tell how did his head got twisted by 45IQ?

Brandon is crazy. You rock!

You not crazy, you cool. 😎
One of the best classic rock songs ever
❤🎉😅

I'm 61years old and I'm rocking
Ted Nugent proved that you don't need drugs to create great Rock music. Rock on!.
God Bless Ted!! TRUMP 2024!!!!

Unless it’s going on a meth binge to avoid being drafted
Sometimes you do🤘🧠🥁🎼
@@edwingarcia2530 pretty Tru I suppose. Touche
I came of age with this music. The 70's were def the rockin' years!!
You are a Great Patriot and a true Conservative American
SORRY I LEFT OUT THE BEST GUITARIST EVER.THANKS TED
70s mid 80s early 90s this from a 35 year old I love the grunge too ted nugent was a brand of his own 😂
YES HE IS THE MAN‼️ Thank You for fighting for our rights‼️
Where would we be without this song??!!
Just living life going with the flow now... Lost my grandfather two years ago lost my grandmother last year and just lost my little sister. So just flowing and gliding. Without all those that hurt me in between oh yeah and beat cancer right before my little sister passed. So yep just flowing.... Letting the river run it's course.
Tao Te Chin💕
Thanks for sharing... Rock on brother
Husband and I walked…. not walked- STRUTTED into our wedding reception to THIS JAM!!!!!! such an epic song it’s unreal!❤❤❤❤❤
That’s some goon shit.
Me and my x husband strutted into our reception to this one as well ! Great memories
Wish I could've been there
One of greatest rock songs ever wrote!
Master--Freaking--piece... for the guitar riffs, one of the best, IMHO!! Hendrix, Page, Prince, Slash, Brian May...yeah Ted got this 1 down A+++
@Yeolita that brydland - Gibson in Ted's hands puts out some fantastic riffs
And sound! He's still putting out that terrific Ted music! He probably will live
To 100 and still play.

At 6:40
Thank you old heads for introducing this to me. Lol I'm hearing it for the first time at 28. This is so badass
What's an old head I'm only 33 I've heard this since I was like 12. But hey glad you found it now better late than never. It's sad to see that people even my age never heard good music but it's okay I don't hate you for it. Hah

Everything is perfect Ted riffs, the bass and awesome vocals with bad ass drums.
This is true rock and roll music. Stands up after all these years. The riff, most people know it as soon as it comes on. Love it!!
Im 63 yrs young been rocking with ted since the 70's❤ Still rocking with the speakers blowing big time. It just drives me CRAZY 😊 2:43
Yeah but.. audio systems today are WAY BETTER. Shoot the sound system in my Ridgeline is better than my full aftermarket Jensen system in 1986 ever was.
Shortly after my grandma's death, I got her radio and held it up high. I said, " talk to me, grandma". I plugged in the radio and turned it on. This song was playing at that moment where it says, "Some people say you gotta die someday; I got news, you never gotta go". I listen to this song all throughout the year randomly but I ALWAYS make sure I listen on 2-27...
That…is one of the most heartwarming things I’ve ever heard.
@@eyeofbrown1387 thank you
Great tale...God speed for grandma
Thats my birthday
Grandma will always be with you
I don't care what genre of music you listen to. This will forever be a master piece!
True.
Rap and Spanish music now I slap rock In my all black ram shout out to some cool white boys they put me on 🫡🇲🇽
yup yup
Stranglehold never escaped the burbs. Air guitar with brooms. What fun. Teenage kids having a blast. Great memory. Love you Mr. Nugent. Great song.
Alter, absolut genial. Als 16 Jähriger war ich schon überwältigt, von dieser Stimme und Wucht und Dynamik deines Gitarrenspiels. Heute, mit 62 hat sich daran absolut nichts geändert. Du bist ein wahrer und genialer Musiker mit sehr viel Emotionen. Mein Cousin, 7 Jahre älter und in Berlin lebend, hat mir in meiner Jugend von seinem Erlebnis eines Konzertes erzählt. Die Technik war damals noch nicht so weit. Allerdings konnte er in der Konzerthalle diesen Sound von Stranglehold, der ja qauasi rund um läuft, in der Halle erleben. Er war damals auch total begeistert von dieser Wucht. Gott segne dich Ted. 👍🤣 0:01
My wife and I do concessions for our Son's high school baseball team and this is the song I play for their intro. Nothing beats watching these boys playing air guitar.
That’s awesome
Parenting done right!!!! 👍
One of the hardest toughest rock songs ever played by someone no drink no drug's, it can be done. Thanks Ted.
Oh yes; he’s so perfect 🤢
@@KittyGrizGriz And you are?
@@fred721 don’t believe everything you read about him. His MAGAt, bigoted politics ruined his music for me; saw him live several times in late 70’s. Peace and carry on💞.
Yep, and at 74 he's still alive and playing. Guess clean living does help. And he's a Patriot. Someone who loves and believes in the U S of A. If the haters could get past their rage they would see he speaks truth and common sense.
@@CuzKatieSaysSo he’s an election denier; a fool.
I never knew Derek St. Holmes was the lead singer on this and Ted Nugent played lead guitar. I can't believe it's almost 50 years old. What a classic!
When I was in high school, my cousin had this song set as our get up song!!! That's one way to get motivated,!!! And get out of bed 🛌!!
That solo will never, ever get old.
I was around 16 when this song came out and I bought the album. It is 2022 and I am still listening!
i was about 22 and still love it in 2022
I’m 16 in 2022 and I’m listening to it
Fun fact: Uncle Ted wrote this song when he was 16🙂
Fun fact. December 10, 1976, was a Friday. That was the day I turned 16 and got my driver's license after school. I got to go on a date and was allowed to take the family truck. Ted nugent music, a girl, beer. It was the start of many good times in the 70s
One of the best songs ever written. The groove can't be beat. I blast this in my car as much as possible.
My dad loved this song. Rest In Peace dad.
RIP !
my dad just passed away yesterday. thats the reason im tuning in to this rn. Love you dad.
R.I.P. 😎🏍💨👍
@lilshagg4151 I'm really sorry for your loss. I lost my mom in 2011 and it still hurts. R.I.P. to your dad. 😎🏍💨👍
Eu conheci essa música com meu pai também RIP
Speaking about old school music, NOTHING BETTER AMAZING, SEXY SEXY SEXY.
Thanks Uncle Ted. 1975 will live on forever.
Think I had this “8track tape “ Lol…the year I graduated!
I can't even tell you how many times I return here to hear this song. It kicks ass still to this day, I think its one of the best true ROCK songs.
My minds bad, I believe it was 76,77 and 78 at the omni with kiss!! Good times.
Ted heads unite!!!
It's not a song, it's an HYMN...
im of the same opinion top ten ever put down
Amen Brother J A F A S !
Even I am not an American I scream FRREEEDDDDOOOOOMMMMM! Everytime this tune starts! ❤️🔥
😊
Hell yeah brother
Driving my 68 SS 396 CHEVELLE IN 76' FROM Cali to Okl. Digging on these tunes the whole way.
I was 13 when this came out, I still have the original vinyl. I saw him play at Notre Dame High School in Harper Woods, Michigan. Ted will always have a special place in my heart.
Mike, I went to Notre Dame High School. Graduated in 71. Saw Ted and the Amboy Dukes there when their album came out, Marriage on the Rocks/Rock Bottom.
Like its been said, "It's not that I'm old, it's that today's music DOES suck." 🎸
Ok grandad
Oh Yes it does! Testify!
Affirmative
Teen and agree
@Francis Go back to listening to your K Pop and Bad Bunny
I don't need a "monster" or red bull to rise up my energy, this song is all I need, yeaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!!
Cone on, come on, come ooooonnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!
Uncle Ted, I just learned that this song plays very well on my piped-out Harley. Even better, the stereo volume on Bamalam (her name), goes clear up to "50"!
Thanks for all your contributions to us Americans over the years.
Thanks for Spirit Of The Wild! Great music and philosophy!
Thanks for your STAND on 2A!
And for the rest y'all:
If you have a sewer back up and your house starts filling up with sewage, do you raise the ceiling or pump out the crap?
Your choice is coming in November.
Can't you just feel those notes? Man there's nothing like Nugent
Can i barrow a ten I'll pay you like Tuesday an shit......
When I was a child I heard this. My dad grew up to it. I am 36 years old now and can't stand any new music now. We have drifted away from great music like this. Long live sweaty Teddy!
sweaty teddy!!!! lol
Your father tought you well! Thanks Dad!!!
The new music on the radio today is about 18% of quality of this.
not really, you just won't hear good music on the radio or tv. you have to search it
Old enough to be your Mama, but SO Agree!
One of the world's greatest Guitar Solos and Rock Songs ever written and jammed out! WooooooW!!!!!! Timeless Rock Guitar Classics always from Ted!
As a 14 year old kid, this Album was the reason I got into amps, pre-amps, diamonds stylus needles, dampened turntables and built my own killer speakers with horns, tweeters, mid-range, and 15 inch woofers. Mom and dad hated it when I turned it on so did the whole block of neighbors. I still have that original Album along with my concert stubs. Ole Ted came on stage swinging off a hell of a rope. What a generation of Hard Rock musicians. Blue Oyster Cult, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Styx, Kansas, Grand Funk Railroad, Bauchman Turner Overdrive, Led Zeppelin, Moody Blues, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, ZZ Top, Jefferson Starship, Black Sabbath, CCR, the list goes on and on,,,
I was right with you robert
For a 14 year old you have great taste in music. As I tell people "I am not old your music is bad!"
and I never had to do drugs or alcohol. Straight kid all the way. Retired now ✅
The #1 guitar riff in rock history. Uncle Ted will live forever.
That's a BOLD statement that just might hold water.
Deer fuckin.hate him
Come on now, you are giving Stevie ray Vaughan the short end of the stick with that comment. 😁😂
Best slide by Mick Mars
ruclips.net/video/neq4QhMtNFY/видео.html
all time classic
THE LOUDEST band I ever saw live. this song is sooooo good.
I definitely donated some of my hearing at a Ted Nugent concert and would do it again in a heartbeat
I remember Ted by himself was louder than the opening act!
A recording of this song needs to go on the next intergalactic deep space probe..
Hell yeah!
He deserves R+R Hall of Fame for just this song. Rock trumps politics.
There is nothing wrong with his politics. And, nobody cares about the RRHOF
@hedge685 yup
@@hedge685 Some of us care.
TRUMP ROCKS POLITICS
Ted s MUSIC was great..... politically O.M.G. : a boomer guy who supports another guy, who just cares for HIMSELF, living only his (aggressive) Narcism, followed by millions of idiots, who even now don t realize, that he want to become CAESAR OF THE US, beiing almost 80, just like your other grandpa, guys, who s at least a democrat !
