What I love about this band is how simple their sound is. Simple lyrics, simple chorus, simple beat. Bret Michaels doesn't even bother himself trying to hit high notes. Just cool catchy tracks to hang around having a good time. Poison rocks!
March of 91 my mom got me this cassette for my birthday…I had this tape in my Walkman for I don’t know how long, it was that good! On my way to school, to work, home from work. Everywhere! Good memories!
Rikki Rocket... A very happy 60th Richard Allan Ream August 8, 1961 Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. I hope you stay cancer free. Your fans love you and Poison.. You opened for DLR in Denver. Then played a set at Bangles later that night. Oh, what a night..
It's very sad that so many people, who actually like hair metal, put Poison down and make fun of them! They are great just like all 80's hair bands. They marked the era of the best music ever!
Thank you! I live in Chile. MTV Latinoamerica started in october 1993. I never watched this video on TV. I have the DVD, but I no longer have a DVD player . I only have a smartphone.
I am thankful CC has turned his life around for the better, it's a blessing and Amen he has faced his demons and continues to rock it! CC Deville you rock my world 😎💓you are such a personable kind soul. I think you are very Hansome, hot & sexiest man alive ❣BTW I am NOT some crazy fan, just a New Hampshire country gal & single businesswoman. Your guitar playing is so incredible with very unique qualities which are truly underestimated! C.C. DeVille dating history - 5 long term relationships / me 3 Who is he dating right now? According to our records, C.C. DeVille is possibly single. OMG I totally would be indebted if I could meet this man!!!!
I took my 32-year-old girlfriend to a Poison concert last summer. After the concert, she literally told me that she apologizes for ever doubting how good Poison really was. She said they were amazing! I shed a tear...
If it looks similar to Unskinny Bop, it's because they filmed both videos at the same time. Bret wanted this as the first single; the record company wanted Bop. It blew up into a huge argument and Bret lost, but they got two videos out of it, at a huge expense.
THANK YOU! finally someone who gets me. apparently violence is unnexceptable in school. but then they are sending the wrong message by also telling us to stand up for what we believe in. so which is it? i made a point and stood up for what i believed in and got punished... what kind of messed up world are we living in? why cant people just love the GOOD music and we can all live happily ever after?!
@@AngelofAnguish I am 13 and I have everything 80s. My room is all 80s besides my computer. And I just feel that I was born in the wrong generation. So there still is hope for the 80s to live on!
Same for me I have a poison shirt and an ac/dc shirt and listen to alot of 80s band I make music myself. With just us the 80s ain't dead yet, it's definitely the best generation out there
i was going to see poison and def leppard in the meadowlands like two weeks before the aerosmith concert, but my stepmom ended up in the hospital and my dad couldnt get tickets... the aerosmith concert was my first concert ever and it was amazing! steven tyler is doing so good for his age... i love him!!!!!! i plan to make the meadowlands my second home... i have a lot of concerts to see. :)
I remember watching Poison videos on MTV way back and the conversation of how many guitars Cici DeVille uses in every other shot would often come up. It would always add a sense of levity to some of their coolest songs. The memories... :)
Adding to the fun factor of his ever switching guitars was his inclusion of the flaming San Dimas from their club days and appears in the Cry Tough video.
met them a long time ago.. very cool to be around and talk to. rick dees was there also back in tampa bay fl. they showed up in a chrysler lebaron limo. lol talk about a cheap radio station way to save money. i met them as part of a radio station contest . be the Q105 105th caller to win a party with poison at your house. and a 5,000 dollar book of cupons. took us 5 months to spend them all. way back in the early 90's. man what a time it was.
yeah me too... im proud to say that i know all of the bands that you just mentioned. :) i turn 15 in a week and a day afterward, im going to see an aerosmith concert... what deeply saddens me is that almost none of my friends know who they are. =_( so, so, so sad...
I saw posion twice in Calgary Alberta Canada they put on a awesome show. I even named my taby cat back in 1991 after Rikki Rockett. His name was Rockett.
I grew up in the 80s listening to Poison & other hair metal bands. Thanks to my Uncle Ed. Because of him. I still love heavy metal & im in my early 40s now
I'm almost 32 and I still listen to this music. I just don't know whether I'm biased against the music today or, as simple as it could be, 80s music (and early 90s) was WAY BETTER!!!
Musically, I am a Prodigy of the 80s. Thank God yall and all our other bands still have video to watch. I am one who has been horribly effeted by the Down Economy and higly frustrated with all of it, but I can at least find positive perspective when I watch your videos. Your music did and still does put everything in perspective. Keep keeping it alive and going.
Like animals Tonight we make it You give me an inch, I'm gonna take it I'll steal your love Like a thief To be as one is my belief Don't look back and have no regrets Like beasts of prey we must feed on it I'll be your one, your one and only To feel me burn come close and hold me [Chorus] Flesh and Blood sacrifice Melts the heart like fire and ice Flesh and blood like fire to ice Are you willing to sacrifice There's no more time, Don't think about The flame will die If you doubt It's a game of Love and hate To lose it all's a chance we take Come to me and take my hand It's in the fire that we must stand I'll take you down under my gun Our flesh and blood will be as one [Chorus] Our blood runs deeper than a river The less you need the more I'm gonna give you And give you but good [Chorus]
That sounds like a metalhead dream lol. I was telling my boyfriend not long ago that I wish I could live a week in the year at the height of Metal. 80's range. I'm 22 lol but my brothers are 32 and 43, so I grew up with the remnants of the 1980s ahahah. Megadeath playing in the car on the way to church lol.
Some useless info: the babe in this video was C.C.'s g/f at the time. He and Bret almost got into a fistfight after viewing it together--C.C. claimed Brett didn't tell him how sexual the scenes with her and Bret would be, although Bret claims he DID warn him about the overly sexual nature of this video--but to this day C.C. denies that Brett warned him. To quote Bret, "Be thankful you weren't there when Capitol screened this video for the 4 of us."
Hey Lurch cheers for that, I love useless information about Poison. Any reason they never play this live? I would love to hear this live and Valley of lost souls, great tunes. Any more useless info?? Cheers
I was growing up at the time this music was at it biggest and still love it just as much today as ever Iove it. I found you comment lookin for videos for my facebook 80's / 90's Rock page. This music will never die out and its the younger fans that make me proud that you all love it. People like you are the people that will keep this music alive forever. Thee are bands around today that are playing music just live this and they are also the future. Long Live Rock
there are 2 songs i wish they would add back to there playlist, next time i see them in concert, this one, and Back to the Rockin horse, Ive seen them in concert many times, but never got to hear these two songs live.
What I love about this band is how simple their sound is. Simple lyrics, simple chorus, simple beat. Bret Michaels doesn't even bother himself trying to hit high notes. Just cool catchy tracks to hang around having a good time. Poison rocks!
Finally someone else who understands that virtuosity isn't everything. Congratulations bro!🤘💖
It's not that bret not bothered to reach a high note. He just can't. So he make his music with poison suits to his ability to sing
This is an excellent riff.
How old r u now?
@ missdarlene 7 I'll be 67 years old on August 3rd ❤ Sincerely Darlene an American girl who has a thing for drummers ❤❤❤
Poison hands down has some of the best sounding guitar riffs
C. C. Deville is an underrated guitarist
Absolutely!! This riff is in my top 3 fav Poison songs. "Life Loves a Tragedy" is my all-time favorite!!
блюзовые и рок н рольные рифы. эта музыка насыщена роковой культурой, самый смак.
Mick Mars was better
Poison rules😢😮❤
Oh, how the music takes me back!!! Can't we just rewind time and stay in this era for a while?!?!❤
March of 91 my mom got me this cassette for my birthday…I had this tape in my Walkman for I don’t know how long, it was that good! On my way to school, to work, home from work. Everywhere! Good memories!

Как? У Рикки Рокета- онкология? Дай Бог ему здоровья! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Мне он очень нравится! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's very sad that so many people, who actually like hair metal, put Poison down and make fun of them! They are great just like all 80's hair bands. They marked the era of the best music ever!
Dijana1964 Well Said !!

Hellyeah! 🤘
Guns was and is still wayyyyyy better than that, poison were the 90s doutch to me
Thank you! I live in Chile. MTV Latinoamerica started in october 1993. I never watched this video on TV. I have the DVD, but I no longer have a DVD player . I only have a smartphone.
i got directed here and never ever saw Brett micheals in this format HOLY SHEEEETZ
Poison is always such a fun band.
great music , great band.
I am thankful CC has turned his life around for the better, it's a blessing and Amen he has faced his demons and continues to rock it!
CC Deville you rock my world 😎💓you are such a personable kind soul. I think you are very Hansome, hot & sexiest man alive ❣BTW I am NOT some crazy fan, just a New Hampshire country gal & single businesswoman. Your guitar playing is so incredible with very unique qualities which are truly underestimated!
C.C. DeVille dating history - 5 long term relationships / me 3
Who is he dating right now?
According to our records, C.C. DeVille is possibly single. OMG I totally would be indebted if I could meet this man!!!!
It’s 2020 during COVID and this band’s music makes me feel good. Poison Rocks!!!!!
Takes me back to the 90's and think about how the world was then.
Loved Poison's first three albums. Saw them many times in the late 80s and early 90s.
I am proud to be the 8,000th thumbs up on this incredible song!
Thanks to this band I started listening to rock and roll and prefer it more then these days pop, rap, and god knows what else.
Flesh & Blood, the Ultimate Vampire Love Song!
Love this song Flash & Blood (Poison)
One of my FavZzzzzzz💖✨☑️💘🎶
I think poison is a great band.i don't understand what some people 's problem is.
Haters gunna Hate
angel venom yes great band
Jealous because they made millions and all the hot girls they wanted lol
I took my 32-year-old girlfriend to a Poison concert last summer. After the concert, she literally told me that she apologizes for ever doubting how good Poison really was. She said they were amazing! I shed a tear...
They just don't know how to have fun, and don't get that Poison is just rock n roll as it's best: simple, fun and from the heart :)
CC DEVILLE!
Bruce Fairbairn was brilliant in all of his work during this period.
If it looks similar to Unskinny Bop, it's because they filmed both videos at the same time. Bret wanted this as the first single; the record company wanted Bop. It blew up into a huge argument and Bret lost, but they got two videos out of it, at a huge expense.
Tell me why, unskinny bop, and this song are my absolute faves. The only words that discribe this video- HOT DAAMN!!!!
THANK YOU! finally someone who gets me. apparently violence is unnexceptable in school. but then they are sending the wrong message by also telling us to stand up for what we believe in. so which is it? i made a point and stood up for what i believed in and got punished... what kind of messed up world are we living in? why cant people just love the GOOD music and we can all live happily ever after?!
I love C.C.'s solo in this song, so awesome!
Yes oh Yes CC to play bass
I swear if I saw the production of this video I'd be in a pile of sweat on the floor. Damn too hot 🔥!
I’m 13, and this whole album and their catalogue made me want to pursue music. Thank you Poison for being role models in my life!
If ONLY EVERYONE, YOUR AGE, had YOUR ATTITUDE!
@@AngelofAnguish I am 13 and I have everything 80s. My room is all 80s besides my computer. And I just feel that I was born in the wrong generation. So there still is hope for the 80s to live on!

Hey, Bret! Where did you learn to dance like this? I'm extremely impressed.
Me too so darn sexy

Shannon Vess The BEST teenage memories for me!!
The 80's was and is the best music over here in the U.S. I still listen to the 80's and i listen to kpop. I love both!!
Great!
best hairband of all time!
This is my favorite Poison song.
This is my first time watching this music video. I am overpowered by its incredible sexiness. DAMN!
Why do you think I watch it over & over&over..... you catch the drift
These guys make a lesbian hot...
I'm 14 and 80s Hair Metal all I need to be in a good mood. Hair Metal FOREVER!!!!!!
I love this song!! yes! beautiful beautiful vocals and guitar riffs!
C.C. rocks!!!!
All I can say is Damnnnn Mr . Michael's 🤟🖤🤟
Amen to that! Bret Michaels is unbelievably sexy!
OMG he was so good looking back then!!
He STILL is!!!!
I saw posion twice in Calgary Alberta Canada they put on a awesome show. I even named my taby cat back in 1991 after Rikki Rockett. His name was Rockett.
Super song with great video period.
Great song. Perhaps their best
This is the real Poison
I didn't know there was another one
This song, Fallen Angel, Unskinny Bop & of course Every Rose Has It's Thorn our my favorite songs by Posion.
I loved Bret and Poison in my teen years. I still do after a decade or so.
Still haven't grown up? Silly cow!
Hey Anna. Can you krzeiamowska another beer..Thanx
Why would you call them a cow? That's quite rude.
Freshman here too, always have loved 80 songs, always will.
if I had a dime for every time I've seen this video, I'd have enough money to buy the band. xD
I grew up in the 80s listening to Poison & other hair metal bands. Thanks to my Uncle Ed. Because of him. I still love heavy metal & im in my early 40s now
Poison amazing band have been listening from start love your voice Bret your gorgeous ❤️❤️
It's now 2013, and Poison is still fucking awesome!!
it's 2022 now and Poison still sounds great!
I'm almost 32 and I still listen to this music. I just don't know whether I'm biased against the music today or, as simple as it could be, 80s music (and early 90s) was WAY BETTER!!!
I agree
One word. YUMMY
I love this song 📿📿📿
Love Poison, This is their most Bad Ass song.
This is one of my favorite songs by Poison
I think that Bret Michaels look so HOT in this video
Hot is an understatement!!
Oh God!!! YES!!!!
Oh God!!! YES!!!!
De las mejores canciones de poison,
Rspectaculo
Es un arte poison es una revolución en su tiempo yo lo escuche a mis 13 años y con 43 le doy volumen en mi carro
With nothing but a good time is this song the best of Poison.
life goes on ,,,,amazing baby
I always put ‘ FLESH AND BLOOD ‘ top tier album of all time , not one song I skip past
great song
Musically, I am a Prodigy of the 80s. Thank God yall and all our other bands still have video to watch.

Excelente tema, no me canso de escucharlo...
AWESOME SONG...DAM THAT'S A HUGE SNAKE.
Yeah still loving it since I was 13.
Like animals
Tonight we make it
You give me an inch,
I'm gonna take it
I'll steal your love
Like a thief
To be as one
is my belief
Don't look back and have no regrets
Like beasts of prey we must feed on it
I'll be your one, your one and only
To feel me burn come close and hold me
[Chorus]
Flesh and Blood sacrifice
Melts the heart like fire and ice
Flesh and blood like fire to ice
Are you willing to sacrifice
There's no more time,
Don't think about
The flame will die
If you doubt
It's a game of
Love and hate
To lose it all's
a chance we take
Come to me and take my hand
It's in the fire that we must stand
I'll take you down under my gun
Our flesh and blood will be as one
[Chorus]
Our blood runs deeper than a river
The less you need the more I'm gonna give you
And give you but good
[Chorus]
Thank you . I live in Chile and I can read in English but I don't understand every word I hear
Oh lord have mercy, why cant I be that beautiful?
Красивой, как Брэд? 😊😅😊
Hey, Bret! Where’d you learn to dance like that?
I know right so sexy
Cc devile is an awesome guitarist and still a massive influence on me, much love to all poison fans.
where is he in this video
I love how the girl who is the lead singer isn't afraid to be topless and make lesbian love. Wow! poison was so progressive for the 1980s!
Горячая песенка! В стиле этой группы! Ах, как они хороши! Очень нравится Рикки! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fresh music of 80's.
I know every word to this album.
I grew up on Brett Michaels lol not to mention, Def Leppard, ACDC, Megadeath, Metallica, Rob Zombie lol
some damn good things to grow up on huh sarah !!
Hi Sarah ,
Let's have a poison lyric off !
That sounds like a metalhead dream lol. I was telling my boyfriend not long ago that I wish I could live a week in the year at the height of Metal. 80's range.
I'm 22 lol but my brothers are 32 and 43, so I grew up with the remnants of the 1980s ahahah. Megadeath playing in the car on the way to church lol.
im 50, you have no idea how great it was living it #SPOILED those times will never be again. it was an attitude
Those are great bands to grow up on
THANK YOU!!! IVE BEEN SAYING THAT FOR AGES NOW!!!! my friends say that they think that rock is making a comeback... all i say is "it never left"
I got to say out of all the Poison records Flesh & Blood is my favorite one.
Forever glam
