I remember when that song came out. It was a huge hit. Huge video on MTV. Everybody loved that collaboration.
And it effectively rebooted Aerosmith's career.
*"OOOHH HEELLL NO! WE ARE NOT!!! THIS IS COUNTRY PUMPKIN, MOUNTAIN CLIMBING, HILLBILLY GIBBERISH!!!!!"*
Holy shittttttttt 😂😂😂😂
What a great story teller.
"bumpkin". Means a rube. :)
I am a Aerosmith fan but I have to admit that the Aerosmith+RUN-DMC version is a fun blast like the FAT-BOYS+Beach Boys Wipe Out it's just a fun song.
Wipe out was just great fun. Too bad it's mostly forgotten.....
Word! My fav Fat Boys record was Can You Feel It!
Ow yeah!!
That Fat Boys Wipe Out thing was bonkers because Wipe Out was not even a Beach Boys song.
I remember when this video first came out. Mixing genres of music was mostly unheard of at the time so it raised a few eyebrows. When it did hit the waves, it had a whole new sound and broke a few barriers at the same time. Good job, Run DMC and Aerosmith.
dmcs enthusiasm is ecstatic
The rolling stones bit killed me lol
Aerosmith was known as the poor man's Rolling Stones so it makes sense lol
Woow, like Aerosmith was garbage, come on, they're a legendary band
Nintendonix
Who said they were garbage? They were called a 'poor man's rolling stones" a long time ago when they were first starting out.
@@Vaisin Sure, but not as big as THE ROLLING STONES! The Stones started out pretty much when The Beatles did (early 60s) and had hits all through the 60s, 70s, and part of the 80s.
Also, I remember reading an article about the movie, "This is Spinal Tap," and Aerosmith was pretty sure that Rob Reiner based Spinal Tap on THEM (Spinal Tap even sits in front of a record store vainly trying to promote albums with mirrored covers to no one at all; have you ever seen the Aerosmith's "Done With Mirrors" album/CD?), so compared to Zeppelin, the Stones, etc., yeah, I can see how even people not in the music industry could think of Aerosmith as derivative.
@@pierrelontromme236 Yeah, you're are right, didn't know that hahahah
This version with Run-D.M.C. and Aerosmith is the absolute best version of "Walk this Way." Watching the music video is amazing! Loved it when it came out and still love it!
Ehhh I guess that is up too who is listening and what your preference is… the one with DMC was basically the exact same as the original except they added a bass beat too it
I remember DMC being the laid back quiet guy of the group who was always just chilling, kinda like a man of few words. But we you see him today, on tv or CZcams doing interviews this man speaks with so much fire and passion that you can't help but respect him.
@Tomato Sauce Thanks lollll
I loved this version, and the video is perfect. This is not blasphemy, this is art.
Event today when I hear Aerosmith original version.......My mind is waiting for the DMC Version.....A masterpiece
Hello super fan !! Thanks for the love and support, Where are you watching from ?
AXL ROSE just chilin' in the back...
Than0s how does Axl have anything to do with this?
@OFB I mean it's an honest question. It would only be funny if the joke made any sense, and right now I have zero clue what the hell the joke even means?
It took me so long to find it😅
I actually really love when rap meets rock
Rage, Beastie Boyz, the Offspring, the Chili Peppers, all amazing
I love any kind of musical collision like this. Fusion is how new musical forms come into being.
same, one of the my favs is a song called "this means war" by busta rhymes and ozzy. with Iron Man Riff
even eminems ding for the moment if yall know this
When rap meets metal you get nu metal
I'm a rocker and because of this song...Run DMC was my first concert. 1988.
i was a hardcore rock teen when it came out and i loved it. Maybe because i’m a musician and appreciated the boldness of combining rock n rap. It was a huge hit
This song changed my life... I learned Guitar and learned rock music because of this ....
What a great story teller DMC is! Very funny and very entertaining. Humble and honest. That's a good man right there.
DMC very down to earth. Always gives good interviews and always up for talking about legendary Run Dmc! I wish JMJ and Adam Yauch (beastie boys) were still alive 🙁
I'll never forget seeing that video for the first time! It was HUGE!!!
hes such a great story teller. so alive n vibrant.
@Tomato Sauce Find your life...
I remember hearing this here in Australia for the first time and playing it for my friends. It was all over the radio and within weeks every second person was wearing the iconic RUN DMC t shirt in black. Such a legendary song and 2 legendary bands.
Run DMC / Aerosmith collaboration helped shape 90's alternative rock. Listen to Sneaker Pimps, Garbage, Stone Temple Pilots etc, they all use hip hop beats. Even industrial rock / industrial dance samples hip hop.
Well hip hop used Rock and Roll, it's a cycle
@Tomato Sauce Care to elaborate? Or are you just going to regurgitate what you eat daily?
Stp? Explain
Limp Bizkit, RATM, Kid rock, etc...
The video with walls breaking was pure genius and poetic
This version with DMC is one of my favourite songs ever, and I'm coming from the rock-end of the music spectrum. Those DMC boys totally made this, and the official video was fantastic.
DMC is the greatest dude, always keeping it real and being enthusiastic in interviews!
I remember meeting these guys back in 1998 at a concert, it was the greatest thing ever.
This clip just had me grinning from ear to ear all the way through. Such a great song, such a great story.
As good as the combination of groups was, the video was even better, and it resurrected Aerosmith's career!
I could watch this all day. Absolute legend. "Oh HELL NO! This is country bumpkin mountain-climbin' hillbilly jibberish!" "Oh shit, Rick went and got The Rolling Stones." Blahahahaha!
I need to say this to DMC.. since i've heard this Song for the first time as a young Teenager i love it.. and i still got this on my actual Playlist with my nearly 50 Years of living ;) definetly one of my all time Favorites ;)
One of the best duets EVER. MAYBE the greatest!!!
This guy can tell a story... pulls me right into his world.
The video was brilliant also.
The beginning where the walls are being broken down was pure genius
So glad I watched this interview. DMC is so positive....love it.
For me, the greatest song ever!
Changed my world.
Always thought that was THE coolest single of the 80s
I used Walk This Way in a music lesson. This song made history!!
Hello super fan !! Thanks for the love and support, Where are you watching from ?
Nirvava T-shirt
Virnana
*YES*
It's a blessing that D got his voice back. One of the iconic voices and flows in the Culture...
Really?! What’s the story? (7years later😅)
DAMN!!..years later. Learn something new everyday. Great interview
The only hip hop group/artist to have performed at the original Live Aid concert.
I'm totally up for more rappers to appear on loudwire every once in a while. It's a nice change from the norm.
can't believe that DMC is also a rock and roll fan! didn't know that till now
I mean in his story where he saw Steven and Joe, he was like, 'Oh Shit' sounds like he was a fan or at least knew of them.
Of course Rick Rubin was behind it. Bloody genius
Absolutely phenomenal. Thank you for sharing the real story behind this amazing hit... still hot till today. ❤️💪🏽
Dope azz interview!! DMC is a very dope humble Legend!! ✊🏽
What fantastic energy and attitude this guy has. Inspirational.
I love this kind of stuff. That was such a cool story. Respect.
This interviewer got his money's worth, that's for sure. What a story! DMC truly is a passionate individual and his music will live forever.
Rip in piece to my Brother Gilbert slip Herrera he use to play Run DMC in his 1987 buick regal w/ 4 12z in the truck
I recalled there were people that were my dad's age (30s) that hated the song. But us kids below the age of 10 in my hometown absolutely loved it.
What great energy - excellent segment and story!
I was in the 80% group. I loved it and still do!👍😎🎸🎶
I still turn the volume up on that song version! It's timeless!
That song was my first intro to rap music (in video form) and Aerosmith at the same time. I was 8 ... This song was everything -- still is!
Great interview! I'll admit, back in those days, I wasn't one to listen to hip-hop, and this was a great song to help me appreciate it.
R.I.P Jam Master Jay. He knew it would blow the world away and it did.
To this day I still know there dance from watching that video so much on MTV this song introduced me to Run DMC I still absolutely love this song.
DMC is such a good storyteller 👌
Absolutely love Run-Dmc
And I really love what you're doing with the kids too and your book is awesome continue without worrying my brother
I loved it back when it came out....Those were awesome good times.
doing a presentation on this song for my music course and found this video. Very helpful thank you
Great story! Changed the world.
Love the collab, the music video was EPIC🔥🔥🔥🔥
Priceless
DMC is a living legend.
THAT NIRVANA SHIRT AHHH
🔥🔥🔥DMC VOICE SOUNDS AMAZING 💯
Loved this. Thanks.
He sounds so damn humble !
It's kinda awesome to see rappers also like rock music. Brought us great music. Thank you Rick Rubin
Good music is good music. It's colorblind.
i like how they covered the marshall logo. Common we know its a mg series amp.
I love this
Run DMC/Aerosmith
Public Enemy/Anthrax
Papa Roach/Black Eyed Peas
Ice Cube/Korn
System of a Down/Wu Tang Clan
The late 90's was sure a time for Metal(Heavy Rock)/Hip Hop Crossovers
You forgot about Fat Boys / Beach Boys.
He's so animated, what a charismatic dude.
This is what you call progression ✊
he said it without saying it "we brought Aerosmith back to the mainstream and restarted their career"
Yeah, they were stagnating there for a while, but this brought them back.
@M 40 thank you someone with a brain!!
@M 40 same. I have been a fan of Aerosmith since the early days and hate for people to pretend that Run DMC saved their careers. I normally don't comment I just read an shake my head while laughing.
@@darlahays2471 I am a fan of Aerosmith but Run DMC did save their career because Aerosmith was died but came back. Aerosmith said the same thing
Mannn, what a story, what a song.
Thank you Sirs.
VMA's 9/9/99 with Run DMC, Aerosmith, and Kid Rock is still one of my all time favorite live performances! Chris Rock was hosting and made fun of Kid Rock when introducing him, but seemed to become an instant fan during the performance!
what a legend
oh man that was epic . Collaborate music my friends!
THAT NIRVANA SHIRT AHHH
The rolling stones bit killed me lol
Is that Axl Rose on a candle in the back..?
I love that version
Crossover between Rock and Rap. History in the making.
I own a couple ball caps one of them is Run DMC I've never had someone comment so much on a hat but usually yell it out gotta love it
Great storyteller
Biggest song of the 80s!! I was in 10th grade!
Dmc still doing his thing
History !
What a great interview by DMC...so much honesty and energy. The host maybe not so much.
Awesome to hear that story. I’m 19 and my dad showed me the Run-DMC version of the song a few years back. Never liked the original after that. Nobody does it better than these guys
Wow that was fascinating
Run DMC, You guys are great man" To believe what you guys have done" Thank You!", Helping "Raise some Light" changing the 🌎 world, It's always love my brother that does it 👍, and I admire you guys for what you've done, giving peace to both sides of the spectrum" Wrap" and rock on"! for Eternal Life 💖
History!!

Brilliant
Now that was interesting!
