This song is just a musical journey through the band’s that influenced them growing up.
spoken like a true fan. nice job
"Too late for love", "Foolin", "Bringing on the heartbreak", "Let it go"
The early stuff is ROCKIN'...!
Wife here..These guys were truly AMAZING in concert in Atlanta GA..a couple months ago..The Metaphorism is sooo cool BJ..Ms. Asia thet started out Hair Rock..However..They turned into a MAJOR Pop Rock/Classic Rock band when Manager Mutt Lange gotta hold of them and made them major Rock Stars..With you guys as Proffessionals in this business are great at picking this out..Very Mainstream and completely AWESOME!!!
Def Leppard is one of my favorite bands. They have so many classic songs. Keep up the DL journey, you won’t be disappointed.
This whole album “ Hysteria” is just plain AWESOME. I’m hoping you will do another ACDC blues song -RIDE ON!! Or if you want a heavy intro into an awesome blues song -DOWN PAYMENT BLUES! Both Bonn Scott’s songs. But Angus will not disappoint on either!! Much love and light guys 💙💙💙☀️☀️☀️
Down Payment Blues is one of my favorites.
By far my favorite Def Leppard album!
I just saw Def Leppard on tour (with Poison, Joan Jett & Motley Crue). And Def Leppard was freaking AMAZING! 🤘🏽
From what I remember, there’s actually an extended version of this song and it has like an awesome drums feature in it. I wish that one was played more. 🤘🏽😁
Same, saw that show in Phoenix last weekend 🤘
Rocket is really a love letter to all those early bands that influenced them
Def Leppard "Animal" original video ❤️
Imagine . it's summer of 1983, Def Leppard Pyromania just came out and me and friends roll through our home town in my 1969 Dodge Polara i just had painted, a new rumble pack muffler and spent more money then sense on the Speakers and new Stereo System all at 100 rolling through our home town. . In those days we had All the fun anyone could ever want.
We had a 64 polara. Loved it
This band also has history. Stayed together after the drummer lost his arm. They waited for him to heal and retrain himself to play with one arm. Loyalty with each other.
Def Leppard did debut in 1980 as a hard rock band... but they did incorporate pop elements into their music. Guitarist Phil Collen admitted that in the 80's, they felt musically closer to Duran Duran than Iron Maiden... Singer Joe Elliott was a huge fan of artists like Queen, Mott the Hoople, David Bowie, Blondie, etc... bands & artists that had pop & rock influences.
Once Def Leppard's 1981 single 'Bringing on the heartbreak' became a hit, they decided to go in that direction on the 1983 album 'Pyromania'...That record was #2 only to Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' on the charts that year.
With the 1987 album 'Hysteria', Def Leppard had drummer Rick Allen using an electronic drum kit to play beats after he had lost his left arm in a car accident... As a result, the album had a more 'futuristic' sound and had huge pop hit singles like 'Pour some sugar on me'... 'Armageddon it'... 'Love bites'... 'Hysteria'... 🔥🔥🤘🤘
After original guitarist Steve Clark passed away in 1991, they recorded the album 'Adrenalize' w/ Phil Collen playing all of Clark's parts in the studio... the album still went #1 in 1992, but sold less than 'Hysteria'... still scoring pop hits like "Let's get rocked"... 'Tonight'... 'Stand u' ... 'Make love like a man'... Vivian Campbell (guitar) joined Def Leppard in 1992, taking Steve Clark's spot in the band.
In 1996, Def Leppard did release a pop record 'Slang'... which was heavy on electronics and beats. It could only sell a half million copies in the US during the 90's alternative rock era... 'Euphoria' in 1999 was a return to a more rock sound, but again sold a half million copies.
Def Leppard's 2002 album 'X' was another attempt at a pop record, but failed to sell commercially w/ the singles 'Now'... 'Long, long way to go'... 'Four letter word'.
In retrospect, Def Leppard were not a band that enjoyed labels, but their 80's hits are always on demand in concert... and they do play the occasional new songs live. Creatively, they tried to make music that they felt strongly about... not just rock, but pop and other influences as well. That makes them very unique in a way that UK bands like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Motorhead could not appeal outside their heavy metal/ hard rock fanbase, but Def Leppard could.
Def Leppard is one of my favorite bands of all time. It's rare for me to like every song on an album, but I like every song on two of their albums
Def Leppard are one of the best of my generation! They are solid!
You could listen to the entire hysteria album. And EVERY-SINGLE SONG on that album just hits. It’s the first time I’ve liked every song on an album
Even though Def Leppard is my favorite band, my favorite rock song everrrr is: Whitesnake "STILL OF THE NIGHT" (original video is a must). RIP to the model in the video Tawny Kitaen. She died last year. She used to be married to the lead singer, David Coverdale. PLEASE PLEASE react to this video. You will LOVE it
🙏🙏❤️ (p.s. don't pause between 2:00 - 5:00). 🙌
Still of the Night by Whitesnake, ABSOLUTELY! I'm surprised they haven't yet, if so.
@@pudgydaddy it's the best 👍🏻
Just The Greatest Track. That whole album is FIRE!! There's a reason these guys still play stadiums. I saw someone just yesterday wearing a T-shirt from their 2022 tour with Motley Crue, Poison and Joan Jett.
A massive catalog of hits that you can choose from for this band. From the late 70s to the 2000s and beyond. Def Leppard is definitely a member of the round table of Rock. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Just saw Def Leppard last weekend in Phoenix,AZ along with Poison, Motley Crue and they still put on a hell of a show!
What's up guys great reaction! I'm a huge Def Leppard fan since the early eighties. They just rock!
I LOVE D.L. ❤️❤️ The lyrics of this song are referencing other classic famous bands/songs and their influences on rock music.
Love is talked about on different levels in rock songs. Rock "power ballads" are good as well which mostly came out during the 80's.
They are definitely influenced by Queen, women loved them, drummer had only one arm and they had Mutt Lang producing this album. Most of their songs were very catchy. 80's Metallica fans would have called this pop rock, some called them hair metal but I think of them as very similar to Queen. Lot of harmonies and catchy anthems mixed with rock and roll guitars.
What do you call a cougar that lost her hearing?..
..Deaf Leopard!
These are who/what is referenced in the lyrics which were artists/songs that influenced them.

You should check out Let It Go and Bringin' On a Heartbreak from their High 'N Dry album.
Rock Rock Til You Drop, and Foolin' from their Pyromania album (you've already reacted to Photograph and Rock of Ages)
Animal, Women, Love Bites, Armageddon It and Hysteria from their Hysteria album (you've already reacted to Pour Some Sugar on Me and now Rocket)
Two Steps Behind which is on the Last Action Hero soundtrack.
That's what I just mentioned. Great ear. I'm sure everyone paid attention too
LED ZEPPELIN First album, First song... "Your Time Is Gonna Come"....! EPIC!
BJ has it right. Looking back, this would be considered classic rock. At the time some people would consider it in many different ways.
But in history this will be considered as just classic rock. Spot on. Love you both, keep going. Peace be with you
Glad to hear you guy’s are listening to this great album! Hysteria is a masterpiece!👌😎👍🎸🥁
I love Def Leppard! They made a lot of great music!
I love this band. Being a teen in the 80's was the greatest!
Excellent question Asia. I wish I had been in the conversation. According to past critics,
if your music reaches a large audience, somehow that gives you a “pop rock” label which
is seen as subpar. It’s b.s. This group had it all.
Remember, their drummer only has one arm.
Was at the Hysteria concert when i was 17 .... best concert ive ever seen 🤘🤘
they are a British Rock Band , great Rock Band
You gotta do "High n Dry" anything off that album is great, earlier Def Leppard is Way better!! Imo. "Let it go" is a Banger too!! Thanks 💕 🎼 enjoying your channel!!
Thank you both so much!
Not for nothing, there was a period of years where they ruled the charts. Hit after hit. Their music production was second to none for most of the 80s, early 90s.
They're amazing still , in concert.
Oh yea Hysteria is just nonstop musical magic. To me it’s up there as one of the best rock albums period
When you call this classic rock, you make me feel old. I bought this on CD when it came out. Classic Rock is from the 70s and started out on vinyl.
I bought it on vinyl when it came out. Lol
They're even more fun live!!
Most of Def Leppard songs are a jam. Very catchy tunes.
"Sensation of the constellation" - awesome!
This is a killer song with the band influences in the lyrics.
Try "Rock ,Rock ,'Till You Drop" , it's a real rocker!
Just seen these guys 3 weeks ago in Indianapolis. They stole the show.,been a big fan for big part of my life.
You should hear Def Leppard "Hysteria" It's a beautiful balad. And the video is fantastic!
Enjoyed watching you. I just subscribed. I hope to hear you do "Hystetial"
A big boost to the bands that influenced them.
Songs from the High and Dry, Hysteria and Pyromania albums are considered rock classics, and are on rotation on rock radio stations.
The entire hysteria album is iconic
80's hair bands were the BEST!!
This is up there with Animal and Rocket to me. If you haven't heard "Armageddon It" yet, please check it out. It's a powerhouse. 80's music for life! "Me & My Wine" was another not so popular hit that CZcamsrs haven't reacted to. Not sure if it would be blocked or claimed. I could totally see myself karaoking this song to my dream wife lol. Def Leppard livestream sounds good Asia, nothing but all their songs.
"Yeah, Rock Rock..." LOL
Such a good song. Thanks for reacting yall. 🍻 from Arizona 🇺🇸
Def Leppard's first two albums were their best. Try "Hello America", "On through the night", "Wasted".
I love their first five albums equally. Different albums for different moods and all that jazz.😂
I gotta admit though, wasted and especially hello America are my two favourite early leppard songs.
@@TheRetroManRandySavage Mine too. I understand why Joe Elliot changed the direction of the band, I just prefer that raw sound.
@@lw3918 I wish they'd play wasted more often while on tour. I glad they're atleast playing switch 625, that's another personal favourite of mine.
And god only knows why they don't do hello America. It should be in every set.
They are a Glam, Pop and Arena Rock band
"We need a Def Leppard live stream!" Woot!!!! Yes!
Def Leppard
Bringing On The Heartbreak
Lady Strange
Too Late For Love
They had back to back 10 million plus selling albums in the United States.
Billys Got A Gun..great jam
There is a longer version of this song which is probably on the original studio recording released in the 80's. The longer version is much more enthralling.
Rock for sure, but sometimes called “radio rock” catchy well written songs that a lot of people from different backgrounds can vibe with. But never losing the hard rock roots.
Or, we can just call it GOOD MUSIC! lol ✌🏼
This is a fantastic song, but I think it is not quite the album version, which is a little longer and does some cool little things. I may be wrong, but it is such a great tune.
Def Leppard was definitely a pop rock band. Pop does not have any other meaning than popularity. If you listen to rock music in the 80s they are on the charts. The idea of pop music has taken a drastic down step in the last 40 years. Cause in the 80s if you were a pop star you were talented af. Look at that video US for Africa. Those were the pop stars of the end of 70s and start of the 80s. Any star of today wishes they were that popular. Even if they technically have as many fans, that does not mean crap when the growth of nation has been so large.
This album Hysteria is basically pop rock, so Asia is right. The songs are very catchy, that’s why it was their highest selling album. BJ: “The sensation of the constellation.” Now that is a great lyric line.
Check out the Rocket (Live) version. High energy and a nod to Led Zeppelin at the end. Rock On!!
🤘 YES DEF LEP LIVE SHOW!!! 🥰💜🔥
If you do a live stream of them, I recommend their entire Vault album
Please explore their first album On Through the Night. Tracks: Hello America and Wasted.
Songs like it, it’s unfortunate that y’all don’t watch videos. To see the “one-armed” drummer, Rick, is amazing!
ROCKET IS A GREAT SONG 🎵
Y'all should hear the 12-inch Extended Version!
you guys should check out their songs, Let it go, Bringin on the heartbreak, Saturday night high N dry, Foolin, Rock of ages.
Hysteria is a Must. But, the video is as well. The beauty of a love song, and the melody will make it your favorite.
Noooo way did you review my favorite DL piece! This is just awesome. ❤️
I hope everyone got the other music references in the song, that they were singing about
Watch the video, and you'll see what the song is about. Rocket=rock it
Hard to go wrong with any song off the band's first 6 albums
Need to do rock of ages live in the round. So you get their concert vibe.
Fantastic! One of my favourites, but you need the album version for the full experience. Honestly, it's frickin awesome. 🤟
Joe Elliot has stated he sees them as pop rock
I love watching y'all. If you are able I would love to see y'all react to Def Leppard's "Love Bites".
80's heavey metal...lol With a little bit of techno drums because the badass drummer only had one arm!!!
Great reaction. I hope you react to more hair bands like Britny Fox - Girlschool, Saigon Kick - Love is on the way & Extreme - Rest in Peace
This is my kind of jam 😊
If you checked the official video you would see the tributes they are shouting out.
want a DL track that doesn't use metaphors, check out "Let it Go." It's from their earlier, harder rock days.
Great band.. try- bringing on the heartbreak
you guys played the short version
Another great one to check out is gods of war
Listen to (Pour some sugar on me) by them...
There first On Through The Night and there second High and Dry were little heavier and much better they stated to get to bubble gum for me, but those first two are dynamite.
Def Leppard was Hard Rock, or Hair Metal.
You need the live verses. Way longer. Way better. 2 lead guitars rearing the stage up.
Hey y'all on a different note have you ever checked out any Buck Cherry? They got some killer songs man they were popular not too long ago. Check out the songs Lit,... Sorry,.. and Crazy B****...
It ain't bubblegum Rock, it's stripper pole music so be ready LOL
Listen to White Lightning.DL rocks
This would be considered 80’s hair band. They were one of the greats.
Try the original version of this song
Fun and message
U should really do a song off there new album maybe do take what you want or fire it up
🔥🔥🔥🔥
You should react to Rocket 1993
Def Leppard is fully appreciated live Sheffield 1993 and In the Round concert are great to start with. You will not be disappointed
