I am fearless in my heart
They will always see that in my eyes
I am the passion, I am the warfare
I will never stop
Always constant, accurate, intense...
#SteveVai #TheAudienceIsListening #HardRock #HD
Lil vai: it's gonna be loud
*ABUSES WHAMMY BAR
I can’t believe they made a video for a crazy instrumental like this, and an album full of rock instrumentals went platinum. Music was king.
Also, back in the day, the video was on mtv all the time. 🤘
This child is a guitar prodigy. Two years later, at the age of 13, he was in the band Bad4Good, a band formed by Steve Vai, an excellent band that could not see the light of day due to the birth of grunge.
"I am the Passion.
I am the Warfare."
I always get chills at that part.
My favorite thing about Texas. My sweet. Yolanda.
🎉woohoo
You must get chills when you read the title on the CD
When you've listened to passion and warfare since its release and never knew there was a video and you have an image of how everyone looked according to the voices. This is nothing like it.
That's the beauty of, the image in your mind was yourself with your wild friends being as epic as one could imagine to be. It wrote a story that all could share but exist inside of different novels of one's life and yet exist in the same space without fucking the time space continuum. Wild Stallions!!!
Oh I don't know, this is pretty close to what I imagined it to be. An awesome young guitar player tearing up the school. Teachers hate him, the kids love him.
This video is what we all dreamt of being in the 80s 🤘
I saw this video when it first came out it’s what got me addicted to vai
@@BLUE_OCTOBER-TRIX Same for me. Thanks to MTV.
@@aarolecklin8627
Back when MTV actually played music 😂
This song definitely reminds me of Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher".
Rest in peace, EVH.
what's weird is I never heard the connection until now. You're totally right!
This blows away anything VH could even dream of.
@@spookedhorse well of course, Eddie himself would admit that. But of course Vai would always put his idols on a pedestal above him. Both of them are good and influential.
@@spookedhorse Sure mate
Eddie was great for a time but he's been playing the same scales for decades. All of his solos are identical. Vai.....well.....he's a master. End of story.
Such a legendary song! Also, Thomas Mclaughlin (the kid playing a young steve vai) grew up to be a killer guitarist. Check him out.
Thomas was also in a BBC2 Arena documentary in the late 80’s. It was showcasing the NWOHM and they had a camera crew in the old Red Cow pub in Hammersmith and this lad was playing his dad’s guitar, believe me he was good and he got a standing ovation from a pub full of greasy rockers.
He was in Bad4Good with Danny Cooksey from T2. They have some videos on here.
If he was in Home Alone, he could be McCauklin McRocklin!
He was killer when the video came out.
@@OptimisticCynic715 T2 Circles. No more white horses?
The voice of the teacher is actually the one of Steve Vai's teachers. She agreed to do it for the album. The voice is apart of the concept on the original album recording.
Yup. That's true. She deserves it.
"You're gonna Be a BUM!"
*35 years later**
Vai: "Make me a guitar with 3 necks with one neck facing the other way with one fretless, one 12 string and a one normal neck. Oh, and also make it shaped like a heart!"
Ibanez: We'll make 2!
HAHAHAH
3*
It's just a “Slip of the tangue”.
LOL!
Steve Vai from the Passion And Warfare sheet music book:-
"This playful ditty is the realization of the daydream I worshipped as a little boy. I actually got my 7th grade English teacher to play the part of the teacher."
Best Daydream Ever! :D
hot MILF teacher too
***** That gave me an entirely new feeling when she says "We'll have such a good time. So, dont you be nervous, honey"......
....I NEED AN ADULT.......o_O
@@nikol6310 GILF
And she was probably thrilled that one of her students did so well.
That’s so awesome.
This little boy in the persona of Steve Vai is Thomas McRocklin, former Lucy's Milk and Bad 4 Good bands. At the age 7 he recorded a solo album. I recommend you guys listening "Refugee", the first and unique album from Bad 4 Good, released in '93. The Steve's son Julian Vai is the child on the cover of the album.
This is the same thats apear in the ibanez catalog of 1990?
I got Refugee, very good cd.
The singer is the friend of John Connor in T2...
The Drummer of Bad 4 Good is Brooks Wackerman who is recently the drummer for Avenged Sevenfold.. Thomas also has released 3 cds in the past couple years.. he's back to playing after a 20 year hiatus. And he is mind blowing..you can hear all his new stuff here on YT
@@ryant3600 he's also got the prototype universe used in this video still!!!
@@littlemissmac4997 yeah I know.. pretty cool
I love the fact that if I did that in my class back in 1986 then my teacher would have been stage-diving into a crowd of eight-year-olds. Mr Williams, absolute effing legend!
It is Thomas Mcrocklin and he's bad for good!!!🤘🎸🥁🎼 Steve Vai RULES!!!!!!
A mix of hot for teacher and satch boogie, you can clearly hear the influence of his teacher Joe satriani
👍
Oh my god Steve Vai talking with his guitar makes me happy
Mack Williams Check out Thomas McRocklin on Instagram and see what lil “Stevie” grew up to be!
Some fun facts.. 1. the kid is Thomas McRocklin. A guitar virtuoso, that had his first "big" gig opening for Ozzy in England at the age of 8. Vai then brought him in to do this video and then went on to form the band Bad 4 Good w/ Brooks Wackerman as his drummer (he is now the drummer for Avenged Sevenfold), the album was produced by Vai. Thomas quit playing for 20 years, but recently started up again and has released 3 cds in the past couple years and is touring w/ Dragonforce as an opener in the UK this fall, he also is very active on instagram and fb w/ fans, and has lots of yt videos). 2. That swirl guitar from the Passion and Warfare album cover, was gifted to Thomas McRocklin who still owns it and has some recent YT video's talking about it, showing it and doing some demo's w/ it. 3rd. The live "shows" were recorded from when Vai toured w/ Whitesnake on the Slip of the Tongue tour. :)
Fun fact: the teacher is voiced by his actual teacher from school days.
Yes. From Carle Place HS. Miss Fagan. His English teacher.
Doesn't matter from we're still annoying and ruins the whole song
@@kellylee5842 okay dipshit
@@kellylee5842 not according to Steve Vai
Do you know if that's his teacher in the video?
I've listened to this song since 1991 when I first got Passion and Warfare, and today I saw the video for the first time (thanks RUclips) and wow, such a mind blowing experience to finally see what I imagined in my head come to life! Thanks to Steve Vai for being such an incredible story teller through music!
Same here, just now! One of the first CD's I ever bought, and to see it come to life, wow. I'm from Australia, so music video shows had limited air time, probably why I never saw this.
This song is the ultimate flex in the guitar world
Bad ass ! Rad !
"...I wrote this song for all my friends. When I grow up, I'm gonna be a famous Rock n' Roll guitar player." Mittticoo Steve
He used to cut my grass. He was a very nice boy.
Zappa, Joes Garage ;-)
@@LeChuck652huh
Did he really
@@Inksack__ He works in my home town. Guitar shop... where else lol
The lady on the video was actually Vai´s real junior high teacher .
Really!thanks for that!
Just the voice, not the actress....
@@DanielVerberne thanks for that!lol!
is this an actual scene from a movie, or is this scene made up as a parady music video?
What is the name of this movie
School of Rock, from 1979?
what I really want to know is what is the name of that actress?

STEVE VAI , THE REINCARNATION OF FRANZ LISTZ , REALLY !!!
Or Paganini
"constant. accurate. intense."
Remember these words.
He is the passion. He is the warfare.
Always constant, accurate, and intense.
“Move to California with all those other crazies.” Best spoken word in the whole video 😂
How can anyone not listen to this legend?
Whilst I agree, and Vai is one of my absolute heroes, it takes a certain type of person to really appreciate this music. A lot of the time people interpret it as just “soulless guitar wankery”, which obviously it isn’t, but not everyone sees that.
I remembering buying the album and hearing this song for the first time in the early 90's... The Teacher's script is actually in the Track. And Back then, I wondered if they made a video. What would it be like?... And this video was dam close to I have what I pictured.....
I am the passion, I am the warfare. Always constant and intense. Cool album cover too.
I love this whole album. I love Vai
I recently have discovered Steve vai and holy hell I’ve been miss out!
The live footage is from Whitesnake's 1990 tour. You can see Tommy Aldridge back there.
The song that introduced me to Steve Vai
I've known this song since my childhood and 30 some odd years later it still gives me goosebumps!
Serei eternamente fã do Steve Vai ❤️
The very first Steve available song I heard and it rocked me!
The great Tom McRocklin. Such an icon!🤘🎸🔥
one of the better guitar based songs, really sweet
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Love seeing her with the DUNCE on her.
This is GOLD
I always loved this tune from the time the record came out. I just saw the video come up on my feed and it was KILLER!!!! Thanks Mr. Vai for all the great music and I'm still listening!!!
Passion and Warfare...
I love it
when the teacher was not expecting them to be playing heavy metal music and she covers her ears and says "don't you think that's a bit loud? boys!"
i can't stop laughing.
I remember the first time I heard this song, and seen the video. Next day I died my hair black, leaving a blonde streak, dipped my guitar, and few years later named my son Phoenix Vai, after having this and for the love of god playing during his birth. My girlfriend wasn't in the mood to complain.. lol. Steve has always been a huge influence in my life.
Dude that's awesome, I hope your son has a wonderful future! ^^
❤Happy Birthday LITTLE STEVIE VAI 😂😂😂😂😂❤
30 years ago I loved it and ever will!! 😂 👍🏻😁🥰🤘🏻
That sounds like NOISE, Mr. Vai! 😭🎸 ✨
And I want it stopped right now
Is there still anybody out there with good music taste in 2021?
3 years late in answering this, but yes!
This video really bring back some great memories! This was the around the time I was starting to really get into guitar playing, Steve Vai is one of my hero's along with Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix
Seeing Vai tonight!!! Pretty excited!!
This song is so badass. Listened to this nonstop
GORGEOUS
This child is a guitar prodigy. Two years later, at the age of 13, he was in the band Bad4Good, a band formed by Steve Vai, an excellent band that could not see the light of day due to the birth of grunge.
Also, I don't think him and Steve had the best of relationships. He was apparently a difficult kid and at one point he destroyed one of Steve's guitars. Steve took revenge by sawing one of his and there's a picture of him playing live with the guitar Steve sawed
steve's cheekbones are perfect.
He was a handsome young fella for sure.
Thanks Steve! Your work touched my soul in mysterious ways. God bless your creativity and gift.

I've always loved this song and video. I was around 14 yrs old when this video came out and must've watched it a million times. Lol
Steve, you are the "Man"! You are one of my "Hero's"!!!!!
About 10 years ago when my son was little, this came on in one of my RUclips playlists. My son grabbed his guitar hero guitar, threw it on with the guitar strap, and danced around, making believe he was playing like you, Steve. I have a few seconds video clip of it from my old iPhone which I am still searching for. He is 20 now, and still remembers that particular memory AND the song! He was THISCLOSE to taking guitar lessons in middle school, when he decided it wasn't for him - he is autistic and has dexterity issues. He loved playing but got easily frustrated. I was so bummed because his school general music teacher said he was really good with the ear training.
I love it when lil Stevie talks with his guitar
5:47 I love a Rockstar who, instead of smashing their expensive instrument..hands it to an audience member. Very cool.
Headline: 43 injured in fight over guitar
Or if you’re Kirk Hammett, stolen from you by the audience.
one night in the summer of 90 my dad introduced me to steve vai
not knowing who he was i said "he sounds like eddie van halen"
to which my dad laughed and said "hes ten times better than eddie" WHOA! i said and dad gave me the cd passion and warfare
and said listen to this tell me what you think and my 13 year old mind was blown the audience is listening and riddle are my faves
thanks dad
Steve Vai is the best. Feliz pelo melhor autógrafo da história hehe
I'm in the Audience @4:43! Great show. Fla 1990. Bad English recorded "When I see you smile" Whitesnake filmed "Now you're gone" and Vai filmed this.
David Steve vai el puesto ² de la revista guitarra total ❤
Awesome BEAUTIFUL kick ass guitar song. Love it
The little Stevie is really a great actor!!
Steve vai in His Prime, the best !!!
Rock and Roll High School for sure
what a nostalgic feel listening this after years, gotta love vai
This track changed my life at like 11yrs old!
2:35-2:43 such cool sounds Steve was able to pull out of his 7 string and Whammy bar! Such a master!
1:14 lil stevie’s fave is foreshadowing
This brings back good memories
It’s just so f’ing good..when it gets fast there in the middle...for any guitarist I imagine it’s almost too much🤘🏻so so so fucking accurate and intense
Hell yeah
Simply the GREATEST OF ALL TIME.
Cud be the coolest song video combo ever
Only just found out that's Thomas McRocklin!
Peter Donnell same here
Isn't this hot for teacher part 2
I came here to verify it 😂
He's on twitch now!
@@Alex_Varriale well if you live under a rock
That "crunch" at 2:12 s awesome...
Man, this is just a genious track, just like all the other songs on this album. Thank you for bringing me up in a proper manner, cuz that's what you did even though it was not intentional on your part ☺️❤️😁
Back when music videos were still fun.
lots of fun lolllll i love it :)
The young lad who portrays young Steve Vai is actually from a band called Good4bad helped by Steve Vai himself.
We're not gonna take it!
I wanna rock!
Hilarious reminiscence, bro. 😂👍
I begin to like Vai's music. This cool!
i'm amazed that noöne's commented on the crux o'the biscuit in this video, when Vai takes a dump on stage (5:02) & a guitar comes out
that vid is soo over the top...so is the song
Ah memories of a child hood dream rock on . . .
Once I saw Stuart Hamm saying there was a time nobody wanted to lend his guitar amp to Steve Vai at Berklee anymore because he had already blown up a lot of amps there so loud he would play 😁😁😁
Oi.This dude, Is genius. Incarcerated. And his music saved. Me from being boring and he's my musical hero.So stop picking on him okay right thank you ... MiniZter
The 90s were so much freakin' FUNNNN !!!
I miss the 80's and early 90's really bad.
Не сразу понял,.....,но до сих пор.....,не отпускает!!КЛАССНО⚡⚡
That vest is the best
This is the man. What a funky ass guitar player 🤘
i listened this song so many years, i didnt knew it had a video, but when i saw it now for first time is just exactly how i imagined since the beggining
Way to nail that Hot For Teacher feeling in your own style as always. Vai is unmatched
I'm 43 had the cassette wore it ooouuuuuT
Same
This was the business when I got it for Christmas! Good memories
Same!
Had to order on vinyl for that very reason!
MASTERPIECE.
It’s amazing what you can do with only strings
I love Steve vie
