This song is really about a guy who is friends with the love of his life, but she is in toxic relationships, and he's patiently waiting for his chance to be her knight in shining armor. The line "waiting on a line of greens and blues", the green represents jealousy and the blue represents depression.
The lead singer wrote the song when he was a teen, about a girl he was in love with. He was basically friend zoned, and was her closest confidant while she went through boyfriend after boyfriend. Since 1991, this has been the go to song for all of us guys who are always the friend. We patiently wait for the woman we love to realize the one man they want, has been right next to them this whole time.
Friendzone song of the year 1991. Literally waiting in a line to be with her.
So THAT'S what '" greens and blues'" means thank you
exactly! most accurate analysis I've heard to date. I was in soooo many toxic relationships (daddy issues) until I met my husband & I walked down the isle to him with this song. it's my fave song of all time!
here,,,, take my thumb
Oh geesh. #faceleaking 💕✨🎶😭
You can't tell from this song, but that bass player, Billy Sheehan, is like the Bruce Lee of bass playing. I recorded video of his performance with Niacin and he played so fast you can't even see all the finger movements in the video. Great song.
I saw Billy when he was with Talas, just amazing.
@@Mankind_- So true.
Too bad he's a freakin scientologist. How come people so artistic and talented can still get tricked into a dipshit cult?
He also played with Phil Anselmo and they covered some Slayer songs.
His big break was with David Lee Roth and Steve Vai
Paul Gilbert is one of my favorite guitarists. He blends lightning-fast shredding with taste and great melodies. Check out his solo stuff.
Racer X
Paul is a beast
I met Paul in the 90s after he played at a local club. I was going to study guitar with him at GIT but life got in the way.
“Set the world on fire” or “Motor Man” or “Hammer Away”
Gilbert FTW
They had a moment. It faded quick. Absolutely talented.
they are huge in Japan
@@robbied6066 So am I lol
It faded quick? Lol
MR.BIG has a very strong fan base outside of the US.
Still making #1 albums all over Asia.
Elite singer, guitarist and bassist - drummer was good too. Anyone who knows rock knows their names.
I wouldn’t put the drummer and the greatest but Paul Gilbert that guitar player is insanely good they used to break out the drills and that was insane to see in concert
@@jamescoleman8954 I’d agree with that.
@@GoEqBro They were all good, but the most elite and technically proficient musician in this band is Paul Gilbert.
@Matej Juhás Yep....
This is one of my favorite 80's ballads of all time. If I was a fan of karaoke this would be my shit.
So glad you did this reaction. Don't overthink the lyrics. This song was driven by vocals and melody. I always took it as a guy patiently-waiting for the woman he fancies to realize that he's the fellow for her. It's just all sweetness:) Bonus: Amazing instrumentals.
Actually the lyrics are great if you consider what kind of lyrics bands in the hair metal era usually went with.
I’m sure some others have shared the story, but Eric Martin (the lead singer), has told the story of how he wrote this, in one of those interviews online he said “We were really, really good friends, I was totally enamored with this woman. She was beautiful. Smart. I just loved this woman, but she just wanted to be friends. She'd had tons of boyfriends, and maybe she misconstrued promiscuity for love. But I wanted to be the knight in shining armor. I wrote it about how I would have done anything to just be more than a friend and a confidante."
This was the last really big 80s and early 90s glam number 1 hit before grunge and alternative took over. It peaked in Jan 1992. I used to hate grunge and alt rock because of how much I loved the glam scene…but I have grown to appreciate it
Still hate grunge except for Alice In Chains and Stone Temple Pilots.
@Penderyn David Bowie…
Its glam and hair metal for me all day any day. Can't stand grunge with an exception for Alice In Chains, Lane Staley and Jerry Cantrell were an outstanding pair. I liked Audio slave with Chris Cornell and Tom Morello. Nirvana was a joke and a half, their Foo Fighting drummer was the only reason they got noticed at all. Otherwise grunge is pathetic and Eddie Vetter was a D-bag. I'll take the Motley Crue and Poison over that trash any day blasting in my Camaro with the T-tops off cruising around.
@@Whats-It-To-Ya Nirvana gets far more respect than any of the 80's hair bands and deservingly so.
@@alrivers2297 yeah right pal, you're out of your mind. You need a reality check.
One of the best things about 80's and 90's videos is that there are no computers or cell phones anywhere to be seen, I really miss that.
No auto tune
@@Kt-cn2rq real vocals
This is 90’s and I am obsessed with this song! I love Eric’s voice and that hair is beautiful!!!!
Hands up who’ll have that tune stuck in their head for days now! 🤚🏼😀😀
this was a kick-ass band. this whole album is gold. RIP Pat Torpey. What a legend. Lucky This Time, Green-Tinted 60's Mind. Colorado Bulldog, Take Cover
Lucky this time is one of my favorites.
When this song came out, I thought it was "weak" and "whimpy", both musically and in it's lyrical sentiment. However, now I just hear a great group of musicians singing and playing beautifully and making a very sweet tune. God I'm glad I grew out of my previously limited ideas of what was good music!
100% I appreciate way more now that I did when I was younger
This song just puts me in my happy place. It's just perfection in EVEERY way :)
I have a long memory of Eric Martin (the lead singer) and his earlier bands (415 & Eric Martin Band) from growing up in the Bay Area. Mr. Big was really a quite diverse band. Green Tinted Sixties Mind would be my next suggestion from them (with a great guitar lick from Paul Gilbert).
An old band of mine covered "Green Tinted Sixties Mind" and it was so much fun to play!
This is one of their hit songs. They have much heavier stuff that shows how good musicians Billy Sheehan bass, Pat Torpey drums RIP and guitarist Paul Gilbert are. Check out Shy Boy and Addicted To That Rush. Sheehan and Gilbert are playing up to each other backed up by Torpey. Gilbert plays a riff on the guitar and Sheehan does the same on the bass. There are a great live performance from Budokan, Japan 2009. I'm sure Lex will enjoy and groove to these two songs
AHHH yeah, hitting all the highschool crush vibes now.
fall, back of the bus, singing this to the girl that caught my eye...
"Waited on the line of 'greens' and 'blues'" - Greens (envy) and Blues (sadness) ... it's basically about crushing on somebody who is just out of reach for one reason or another.
I always remember seeing Billy Sheehan when he played with yakas in buffalo ny. They were the most kickass band around. I went to every bar to see him. Dynamic bass player
Talas
This was early 90s (1991 to be specific). Another great rock ballad off this album is "Just Take My Heart". The rest of the album is more "hair band" rock, if you like, but very good. I can't think of a good comparison, but it's worth checking out!
So glad you reacted to them! They are such an underrated band. You should really check out more of their songs, you wont be disappointed.
Mr Big is a supergroup. This was as just they're love song. Addicted to that rush is their masterpiece.
these guys are all virtuosos .awesome band from early 90s. RIP to the Drummer.
Watching your faces light up during this song was absolutely bloody brilliant!!! When this song comes on my playlist, even 35 years later, I always have to play it twice. THANK YOU!!!
Another great song from my middle school years.
1991 this released.
What's bad is I don't remember the hair like that in the early 90s 🤣 then again I was born in 84 so still young.
@@Kt-cn2rq I was 10 going on 11 at this time. I had a shoulder length mullet. 🤣
My then husband’s band was an opening band for them when they played at Roxanne’s music club in Toledo. My ex was loading in his bass amp as well as the other bands, Mr.bigs lead singer and drummer were standing on the loading ramp area as the guys were loading in their equipment into the club and my ex yelled at them and said”Get outta the way, can’t you see we are loading here!? Dumb#*ses!?!” They looked shocked and moved outta the way. I walked in after my ex and said”Do you know who they are?” He said yes, and he didn’t care. 🤦🏻♀️ later he apologized to them and I filed for divorce a few years later. 😂…..watching you both do these reactions have brought up many memories and I thank you!! Keep on Rocking out together. 🥰
Trust me, Mr. Big kicks MAJOR ass. This is one of their few mellow songs, try "take a walk" or "shy boy." The bass player Billy Sheehan was in David Lee Roth's first solo band.
They did a good cover of Cat Steven's "Wild World"
"Waiting on a line of green and blue" is a reference to mood rings, which (supposedly) change color with the wearer's mood. Blue = sad and Green = happy. (TBH, the just change color with your body temperature, but it was a whole fun thing)
I grew up in the “projects” in Bushwick Brooklyn poor af. This song was the first time I remember having joy with my mother. I lost her in 2023 and my sisters played this to her in hospice before I got there and said she started moving and breathing heavier. She passed 4 minutes after I got there. I will cherish this song for the rest of my life because of my mother
Lead singer Eric Martin is one of my all time favorite singers. Love his range and rasp.
Brings me back to the days where we would put this on the jukebox at the bar. The whole bar would be singing it and one of my guy friends would always sing that one part really high "waiting on the line". Good times
Saw them in '90, opening for Rush, at Long Beach Arena. Great live band, the bass player also was a member of David Lee Roth's band
A great example of a " nowhere to hide" vocal. Class.
Prior to forming Bad Company, Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers was in a band called Free (most known for All Right Now). Anyway, Free had a song called Mr Big. That's where they got the name from.
And they eventually recorded a cover of that song! But I'm sure you knew that 🙂
@@erikthompson619
Free had a lot of great stuff, but sadly, most only know All Right Now
Saw Mr. Big twice since both times they were opening for Rush. Guitarist Paul Gilbert is a master of his craft... Highly underrated band.
Love songs like this. Nothing fancy, just amazing vocals.
Great band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this song. My best bud, Amy, and I used to listen to this while hitchin'. I miss her. Back when I didn't have a wheelchair and she was alive. RIP, Amy.
It's strange how this band reminds me of Def Leppard. The singer looks like Pete Willis, who was an original Lepp member. One of the brunet's reminds me of Sav from DL, and the dyed blond of Steve Clark, RIP.
mr.big is so big in japan and asia country watch they concert twice here in indonesia, jakarta and surabaya city, many here admire one of the god of guitar paul gilbert
You guys!!!!!🥰🥰🥰💋💋❤❤❤💯💯For real, I listened to this every day to the golf course in '93. For golf practice. I was on the High School golf team. ⛳ I haven't heard this in 25 years. Let's get it on!!! (Always comment first).
I absolutely loved her reaction, knew she likes it when she smile
I understand people thinking Mr. Big was too poppy, but any band with Paul Gilbert and Billy Sheehan in it is awesome for me.
Is it just me or is he related to Tiffany??? Seriously though, a great, iconic, beautiful song. I was a late teenager when this came out- and this song hit me hard!
They weren't an 80's band, their 1st album was released in 1989. Bassist Billy Sheehan played in Van Halen singer David Lee Roth's solo band with guitarist Steve Vai (Frank Zappa, Alcatrazz, Whitesnake); he's also in Winery Dogs with Richie Kotzen on vocals, guitar (Poison, Mr Big) & Mike Portnoy on drums (Dream Theater, Transatlantic, Flying Colors, Neal Morse Band, Sons Of Apollo, Adrenaline Mob, Avenged Sevenfold, etc); & also in Sons Of Apollo with Mike Portnoy on drums, Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal (GNR, Art Of Anarchy), Jeff Scott Soto on vocals (Yngwie Malmsteen, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Talisman), Derek Sherinian on keyboards (Dream Theater, Billy Idol, Black Country Communion, etc).
Saw them live in 1992 opening for Rush in Memphis. I remember Paul Gilbert pulled out a drill with a bunch of picks mounted on it for his solo. It was kind of goofy at the time but he is a badass guitar player
Clapping brings people together. So true❤
Hope you do more reaction of Mr. Big - they are so underrated.
What does waiting on a line of greens and blues mean? The lyric is, officially: “Waited on a line of greens and blues.” As for what that means, the prevailing theory is that “greens” represent jealousy and “blues” represent depression.
1991. Most hair metal bands starting sounding like this in the early 90's. Poison did it too.
I used to think the lead singer was a woman because that's exactly how my mom looked and dressed when the song originally came out 😂😂
Well he looked like Tiffany with a perm so honest mistake 😆
Same - was sure it was a woman for ages.
No but he is a mangina and wrote an hymne for simps
We used to talk about how pretty he was all the time. Sebastian Bach was prettier though.
Eric Martin looks just like Sandra Bullock! But that's not a bad thing. And, he's a great singer and super cool dude.
I love seeing people's reaction to this song. I think he has great vocals and the song is quite beautiful too. I hope this doesn't sound too foreward, but I love your freckles Lex! Both of you seem to be a very mellow and happy couple. Cheers!
You need to listen to just take my heart and wild world, along with one of the rock hits daddy, dropper lover , little boy..all are a must...
Green Tinted Sixites Mind, Alive and Kicking, pretty much anything off the Lean Into It album. Also if you want amazing guitar stuff, listen to songs from Paul Gilbert’s solo catalogue he’s one of the best.
This was their requisite ballad. Check out Green Tinted Sixties Mind, or Kicking and Screaming.
Early 90s. I was in high school, and I graduated in 92.. Great song.
The singer Eric Martin was on the shortlist for Toto when they searched replacement for Bobby Kimball. Another one was Richard Page of Mr. Mister. They set on Dennis Frederiksen.
Mr.Big was known for its four piece harmonies in live concerts as well. The band as a whole was sort of minor supergroup, bassist Billy Sheehan from David Lee Roth Band, guitarist Paul Gilbert from Racer X, Pat Torpey a seasoned tour- and studiomusician.
Toto were not the only ones either. The list of bands considering Eric Martin include, but are not limited to, Van Halen, Rainbow and Wishbone Ash. How's that for eclectic??
You don't get a circle around the best clapper. Hahaha gold
you guys should definitely check out Nina Hagen,and more than one song,because it is so different all the time...she is german,lived and toured in USA...studied opera,but became a punkster..her range is WOW
Was waiting for you guys to check out this one ... Mr. Big would have been the kind of band I would have done anything to be a part of.... but sadly, as an average Big haired bass player.... I am not in the same universe with Billy Sheehan! I did meet Eric Martin though, came and checked out my band in a club in San Rafael CA... as a frontman/lead singer, I'd take Eric over just about anybody in the hard rock genre... Great reaction, thumbs up!
Got to meet them in the late 90, they were great.
The bass player in this band is the Eddie Van Halen of bass players. Check out their song Addicted To That Rush for the total opposite feel to this song and check out the bass player
Super group. Listen to Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy to get a better taste of how great this band was/is.
everytime i hear this song i think of those late 90s/early 2000’s song compilation cd commercials and this one was like… on all of them lol
I remember this song playing on the school bus when it first came out lol, and they played it at every school dance. ah memories
Eric's voice and that smile seriously could burst lost of ovaries of women on 2022 just as many as he did in 1991 🤣
Dudes got that rock 'n roll soulful/bluesy sound. You should check out "Just take my heart" outstanding.
Reminds me of being a kid in the early 90’s great song
I just love lexie she is the best! She loves music that I love. You go girl!
Again OMG Thank you so much for the walk down memory lane 💕
"There's never a good point to pause this song.". Yes Lex!
Addicted to that Rush
Fantastic song by Mr. BIG.
Great band... and Paul Gilbert (guitarist), killer group
Huge Mr. Big fan here. Can tell you all about them!
Daddy, brother, lover and your little boy (the electric drill song) would be a good one from these guys. Paul and Billy share a drill solo. 😆
To be with you hit #1 on Billboard in 1992.
Stuck there 4ever.
Bass player was the bass player for David Lee Roth’s band btw
Love the hair game and i've always loved this song....
Saw them live & they were great! Billy Sheehan & Paul Gilbert in same band made for an incredible show
There were so many different types of bands in all genres in the 80s, lots of one-hit-wonder bands. A lot were great but never made the big ratings lists. I saw the bass player here on David Lee Roth's tour when he and VHalen separated. It was Tesla first, then DLR with this bass player and Steve Vai. Motley Crue was the first one to make a ballad in the rock/metal bands in the early 80s, "Home, Sweet Home". -- I think "Quiet Riot", Randy Rhoads band before Ozzy, were the first metal to get big in the BIllboard Top 100 at #5 with "Come On Feel The Noize" in 1983. -- Lots of great music in the 80s, and a lot of ridiculous stuff, like every decade, ha
It's so much fun to hear reactions to this song way after the fact. This was the end of the hard rock power ballad era, and though it's a well crafted song, it came across as really cheezy at the time. Too happy somehow. Then "Smells like Teen Spirit" came out a year later and changed everything. All the eighties hard rock bands just seemed so irrelevant after that.
Lex is just so gorgeous. I dedicate this song to her.
he held onto that song for 15 years.
Been requesting you to do this song for at least a year. So glad you finally gave it a listen! :)
I will never get sick of this song. So good
Legendary band
I always sort of thought these guys got dumped on since the genre they were lumped in was filled and had some not so hot bands come out right around the time this video came out .
These guys are fantastical musician.
Back in college when trying to be smooth I’d play this and more than words to the ladies on guitar. They both came out around the same time. Smooth (not really but I was trying)! 🤣
Please try Roxy Music- In Every Dream Home a Heartache, some great lyrics for Brad and guitar for Lex. Also you won’t have heard anything like it. Love from Liverpool.
Addicted to that rush should be the next from these boys!
Another hair rock ballad that hit hard during the grunge age about a girl who had guys lined up to be :”NEXT!”
Lex's reaction was the best 😊
All my mind pictures is David Spade helping to serenade Timmy's girl on Rules of Engagement😂😂 i am so broken.
They open for Rush in 19 9091 can’t remember the exact year but it was a great concert
One of my favorite songs!
This was in the periode of ... under the bridge of rhcp .more than words by extreme .and this one ...all nr 1 s in early nineties in our netherlands
Power ballad. 💕✨🥰🎶👍🏻 Fabulous harmonies, smooth key changes...acoustic . #mackin' ? #friendzone #waintinonthatline #MrBig
I’ve never given clapping much thought till hearing your thoughts on it .💗
Billy Sheen and Paul Gilbert used to break out the power drills on stage to play their guitar and bass that shit was awesome
That should be your next piece of swag...."anyone can clap"!...lol!
