I highly recommend going down the OK Go music video rabbit hole. Look up "OK Go on Treadmills." Choreographed and directed by a sister of one of the singers. She eventually directed Pitch Perfect 3. OK Go is solid pop rock, but they have the most incredible videos.

Bolan and Sabo wrote some incredibly deep songs that put them miles ahead of the "hair band" category. This song is a testament to that.

She caught the melting sky It burned but still the winter passes by and by To the other side A slow parade of wind That blows through trees That wilted with the season's children Are we saved by the words of bastard saints? Do we live in fear or faith? Tell me now who's behind the rain A maze of tangled grace The symptoms of for real Are crumbling from embrace But still we chase The shadows of belief And new religion clouds our visions of the roots Of our souls Are we ashamed of our own fate? Or play the fool for our own sake? Tell me who's behind the rain What do we need? Where do we go? When we get where we don't know Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow? When faith's our shelter from the cold What do we need? Where do we go? When we get where we don't know Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow? When faith's our shelter from the cold Quicksand Jesus I'm so far away without you Quicksand Jesus I'm so far away without you Quicksand Jesus I'm so far away, away Quicksand Jesus I'm so far away Quicksand Jesus I need you Quicksand Jesus I believe you Quicksand I'm so far away Take me away

Skid row came out at a time when they were too late for 80's hair metal but too early for 90's grunge. Awesome band with a solid first 2 albums nonetheless.

10/10 song. This band got forgotten too quickly when the 90s turned. Glad you can help keep the love alive.

Sebastian Bach still performs as a solo artist and even in his 50's he sounds great.

One of my favorite vocal performances of all time. In a Darkened Room next, it's a tear jerker

💖💖 IN A DARKENED ROOM💖💖

In a Darkened Room, Into Another or Breakin' Down would be great songs to react too!!

I can't believe how open minded you are.. I'm a drummer that deals with diversity alot.. You're a fresh breath dude🤟

One of my favorite songs of all time. Definitely my favorite of theirs.

I didn't discover skid row until 2004 and the moment I heard this song, my soul resonated a messsge to me. This Is One of The Ten Greatest Songs EVER Recorded. I still feel that way about it. I want to add Thank You for Being You Brother.

“No matter what your belief is, always start with love” So well said

I was a fan of them back in the day and your reactions are making me reappreciate how legit they were. I want to buy a Skid Row album now.

One of the best singers, metal or any other genre.

Sebastian Bach was and still is a wonderful vocalist. His range is extraordinary!!!!! Absolutely love this song!!!!! I love Skid Row. Please do more reactions to Skid Row!!!!! We all need love.

I appreciate that you pay attention to the lyrics not just Sebastian’s singing. Other reaction channels just focus on the vocals.

I was in college when Skid Row came out and have loved them ever since. Yes, I still listen to my hair metal, I love it! It's my youth! While most of the "glam bands" at the time were mostly focused on the "party" aspect, shallow lyrics, questionable topics, etc., Skid Row was different. Very talented, Bas' vocals were always outstanding, and their songs contained stories with a message. Slave To The Grind, the album this song was from, didn't get the love it deserved. It never got as popular as their first album, but in my opinion, every song on it is outstanding. There's not a bad one in the bunch. Thanks for showing this group the love they deserve!

Rachel Bolan and Dave Sabo, who wrote the song, were both Catholics who struggled with their beliefs because of the rockstar lifestyle that surrounded them. This song was written about that.

If I recall correctly, Rachel Bolan (the bass player) said they wrote this song, right after the gulf war kicked off. It was about whether they could hold onto their beliefs, or fall to worry and fear.

one of the BEST voices in rock

AWESOME Jamel! One of my favorites! I can't believe you did it! SKID ROW finally! LOL!

Loooove Skid Row, I'm excited to hear your reaction to their songs.

Ahhhhhh, those 80s bands ballads. Nice.

Definitely gotta do *In A Darkened Room* , maybe throw in the songs *Breaking Down and Into Another.* Love Peace and Happiness Y'all!!

"Bastard Saint" is the lyric that hits you in the face! I do like your interpretation too! Rachel Bolan is an incredible poet and artist. I think he wrote most of the songs and lyrics. Darkened Room is awesome too.

The Absolute best era for music ever

I'm SO thrilled you did this one. My favorite of Sebastian's vocals, bar none.

he has such a powerful voice, tremendous range too!

I'm so far awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Legendary vocal performance.

Another incredible song is "I'll see you in my dreams" by Giant!

I want to say thank you for being so honest it's refreshing to see an open mind yours is heads above all the other channels your insight is usually spot on to what I was thinking the fist time I heard these songs years ago keep up the great work i am a fan

They recorded the live parts here in Green Bay, WI Jamal, and I was there! They sang it twice! How cool was that...VERY! Heavy song, and you're right; get rid of those who don't have "Love In Their Hearts"...Love your shirt!

Full on Skid Row channel now 🤣 Glad you are enjoying...

Wow! Just need to react to In a Darkened Room next and I'll be ecstatic!!! This song is a masterpiece.

THANKS for doing my favorite Skid Row song. This one seem to get overlooked. The meaning of the song according to Sabastian Bach in an interview "a song about trying not to lose faith in God with all the sh*t that goes on in the world". Really fits the past year. I'm not religious at all but still love this song.

LOVE that RUSH poster on your wall! Thanks for not stopping every 2 seconds to talk thoughts and actually "listening" to this. You can see it all in your facial reactions. What a great song/band.

This is such a deep and truthful song I think we've all been at that point in our lives. This is by by far my favorite Skid Row song and probably my favorite 80's metal song. Thank you for doing this reaction

Breaking Down and Wasted Time by Skid Row!

Loved this when it first came out in 1991. Hard to believe that's 30 years already. 😮

I'm in this video this video was shot in Green Bay Wisconsin at the Brown county arena and I am in the video you can see me before the guitar solo I'm up on a somebody's shoulder putting my hands up in the air very awesome concert

This is a killer, and I am so happy for your reaction to this song I love to the core!! Thank you so much!!

Its easy to hurt people, To make a difference LOVE one another, lead by example much harder!......🤲💪❤

A hidden gem of a song that never really got much play compared to some of their other music.

Bolan and Sabo were brilliant lyricists. I don't think Skid Row ever got enough credit for their writing talent. It just got better as time went on.

Hey man it’s so dope you got the message of the song! Keep it up

You got it right. You can't go wrong with love and kindness.

Love this guy Jamel . bring love to the table everyone

Jamel, you are spot on. Whatever it is, start with love to find the answer . ♥️

MAN!! That’s a GREAT INTERPRETATION! I have loved this song since it came out. I never really thought about what it was about but I think you are 100% right. I love your videos! ROLL TIDE!!!

These vocals are insanely good. Love this.

Thanks for reacting to my favourite song from the summer of 1991. I was at the beginning of a long, difficult 7 year stretch but I always loved music, and it kept me going. I’m not religious though it’s just words to me.

Piece of Me is one of my fave Skid Row tunes, Please explore the hair metal of the 80s that we grew up with and love.

Amen Brother! Love and Peace even when we disagree.

Good song! Cinderella is a band that was swallowed up in this era. Vocals, ballads, riffs... they had it all. Check out Cinderella: Ling cold winter
