One of the defining songs of my adolescence. Teenagers, at least in my day, take their favorite rock stars to be philosophers and guides to living. That certainly was me. A delight to see your reaction.
I've always considered this song their " Stairway To Heaven" ; it starts slow, builds to a climax and it's a timeless and eternal song .
Stairway to Heaven is from Led Zepplin
@@Leah-cn5cu no kidding

Aerosmith "Sweet Emotion"....Nuff Said.
Steven Tyler says he wrote the lyrics when he was 14. His father trained at Julliard, and he'd lay under the piano for hours as a child, listening to his father play. Perhaps my favorite Aerosmith song is No More No More, which opens with the lyrics: "Blood stains the ivories of my Daddy's baby grand, I ain't seen the daylight since we started this band". Peace.
16 years old unless you got a source. Always heard 16.
YES! No More, No More is an overlooked Gem from Aerosmith’s catalogue. It’s also my favorite track from them
It was written at the age of 17,come on you guy's
Stephen Tyler is always mentioned in top 10 Rock frontmen….and his voice has held up over the years…..Jimmy Page has done some work with Aerosmith and, according to rumor, wanted Stephen to tour in Robert Plants place after Robert refused to do so after the successful2007 Celebration Day concert. Stephen decided to stay with Aerosmith ……..Aerosmith broke just after Led Zeppelin, and was in their shadow for a time….many were always comparing them ….as they had similar styles, and Tyler was in the Robert Plant mold. But honestly, I’ve come to appreciate the major talent of all the members….and their staying power remind me of The Stones….
if there's one person that can maybe do Plant justice its Steven Tyler. Brilliant voice, loved it from the start
@@SyedRewinds agree. David Coverdale also. Coverdale made an album with Plant in 1991 or 92 which is really damn good. It really pissed Robert off….which might have been part of the reason Jimmy did it. But when Plant contacted Jimmy about collaborating again on Zeppelin music, Jimmy dropped Coverdale like a hot potato and rejoined Robert. That album DVD and tour were amazing. Called No Quarter tour
An iconic masterpiece, I believe Steven Tyler wrote it as a teenager
The way you follow the music and the lyrics is great! By far the best reaction channel!👍🏻👍🏻✌✌
When I was teaching Psychology, one of my students asked me [in 2010] which was one of the first bands you went to see live. I said Aerosmith. He asked, 'when?'. When I said 1974, he said, 'fuck me, have they been going that long?' I just had to smile and nod my head.
It was their first hit song, and it was (and is) one of the greatest songs in Rock 'n' Roll history.
(Too bad they never came anywhere close to that height again; if they had, people would put Aerosmith in the same category as Led Zep and The Stones.)
I don’t care what anyone says, they are in that tier with Led Zep and the Stones. They are America’s best band! You can’t name another band with the catalog that they have. Not even Metallica! Sweet Emotion was pretty high up there too!
@@scottlaughlin9897 Would definitely put CCR over them for sure but Aerosmith is def top 5
Great reaction! This song will endure long after members of Aerosmith are long gone and me gone with them. Back in the 70s' a few popular TV shows or TV movies in the US would have its setting partially take place in Europe and occasionally, they would include the sound of the Hi/Lo siren from an Ambulance. This sound became for me, an eerie, somewat spookie sound that spoke to me of life threatneing danger - the repetive Hi/Lo riffs in Dream On always gave me a similar feeling. MIxed with the lyrics that also reflect a person looking back on their life,
( "Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away")
I always felt the lyrics and riff gave a similar vibe - causing me to reflect on my life, which seems to speed ever faster towards my own end - the lyrics and feelings hit me then and still does to this day
And yet Another 70's song making up just another one of the all time greats.
Their first four studio albums are the core of their catalog, all in the style of 70s rock. It's hard for me to think of another American rock band that had a better four consecutive album run. That's what I listen to, anyway.
such a great classic tune, Aerosmith is highly under rated if you ask me. They should be way up on list of the best bands ever
‘Toys in the attic’ is a great album, ‘rocks’ is a legend of an album
I saw those guys just before their first album was released and even then you knew they could become something big. They have lots of great songs to check out but much of their best work was in the 70s. Next try either Sweet Emotion, Toys in the Attic or Back in the Saddle, all killer tracks. Saw them at least a dozen times, always a great show. Enjoy! 🎸
Speaking of paying your dues, Steven was a roadie for Led Zeppelin before joining Aerosmith. Learned from the best...
Good tune.
You've probably heard of them as a hip-hop fan because they were the "rock" half of "Walk this way" with Run DMC
The album "Toys in the Attic" is a killer from start to finish. Their best work.
Good analysis. I see a little something I never noticed in a song whenever I watch one of your videos. Thanks!
All the wisdom in these lyrics.... Steven Tyler wrote this song as a teenager. Great song and great reaction!
I was a strange kid. I knew of Aerosmith because I was of that generation but I could not have told you a single song of theirs. My musical tastes were (and are) strange. I first heard this song as the Morgan James cover with Postmodern Jukebox and I was blown away. That led me to investigate this and other classics of my youth and gave me a real appreciation of them. I would still recommend that you check out the Postmodern Jukebox version. That does not take anything away from this masterpiece. It is different but neither more nor less wonderful.
Saw em in1990 past their best but they still knocked out loads of 70s stuff!🇬🇧
"you gotta lose, to know how to win" one of the best and truest lines ever.
Love following your journey through all of these songs!
I heard this on the radio when I was a kid went by the time I was able to start buying albums I bought this, their first album. This was around junior high when I was pulling around with my friends and Cutting Loose. This is probably their most notable song of all time but every song is album turns out to be amazing. Check some of them out. Incredible. Check out Mama Kin. Or, one-way Street. Or, nobody goes there. Or the incredible cover of the wonderful old black hopping blues song by Rufus wainwright, walking the dog. Listen to the original first, it's easily findable on youtube. And then listen to their cover of it. That whole first album just smacked you in the face and it was so raw..
Mr. Steven (Talarico) Tyler is known as "The Demon Of Screamin' ", because of songs like this and quite a few others. He was, for better or worse, a judge on American Idol, which brought him and the band a new round of fame a few years ago. All the other members, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer are superb, professional musicians, and have been for over half a century. Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame, Grammy's, MTV Awards, Movies, World Tours, splits and reunions, hit songs, some bombs, Multi-Platinum Albums, marriages, divorces, famous kids, Liv Tyler is Steven's daughter, this band has done it ALL. And then some. Anything from their first four albums is stellar, Train Kept A Rollin', Lord Of The Thighs, Toys In The Attic, Back In The Saddle, etc.
As a hip hop guy you may know the name Steven Tyler more specifically than just "he's famous" through Run DMC, as they did a cover/collaboration of Aerosmith's "Walk This Way" which featured Tyler and guitarist Joe Perry on the track as well as in the (very good) music video.
The album ‘rocks’ by Aerosmith is entirely legendary, every song, I promise
1970's Aerosmith is so different from 1990's Aerosmith -- and 1980's Aerosmith is somewhere in between. As a person of 1962, I of course favor the 70's up until the Coke took them over about the time of Draw The Line and they had to break off for a while. But the run from 1973 to 1978 was something else, man! Aerosmith, Get Your Wings, Toys In the Attic, and Rocks are among the best four consecutive hard rock albums release in that decade.
Great band and this song is their masterpiece by a long shot.
The Boston Boys, the Toxic Twins, are great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolute Classic Rock
It's too funny that as I read the lyrics with you while the song is playing, I realize I've been singing the wrong lines on 3 occasions for decades ;o)
I love this song! Steven Tyler is an amazing singer. I enjoyed your review. Your terrific analyzing music!
For sure a timeless song.
You give great reactions and process things very quickly. You nailed the mood of the song, the meaning of the song as well as how the instruments backed all of this up....on your 1st take. This is an amazing song and your analysis is spot on. Great job. The only down side is that it makes it hard to listen to other reaction videos now. Thanks a lot.
Wow, you have got to listen to the albums 'Toys in the Attic', 'Draw the Line', and 'Rocks'. Anything from any of those albums will do.
My first rock band obsession growing up was Aerosmith. Especially their early stuff is astounding!
As usual your analysis is spot on Syed 🥺
Your analysis of music and lyrics is impeccable. I may just have to subscribe if you keep it up.
Always like your insights to songs that are totally new (sampling aside) of course to you. I've given you the nod from your generation of reactors, as easily thee expert on the Rolling Stones. You break them down so well.
Classic album every song has something to offer! Thanks
To think this is one of his first songs ever, written when he was, I believe 16.
What a great reaction!! Omg
Great tune, good memories!
One of my favorites 🤘
I really enjoy your reactions! You not only react well to the music, but you pay attention to the lyrics. Two that you might really enjoy-Kansas-Dust in the Wind (official video) and The Eagles-Desperado-Both have deeply profound lyrics and fabulous music. Give a listen.
Season's of Wither is an awesome dark horse Aerosmith Jam!!!
i teally enjoy your reactions. you are great at this
I know, nobody gonna take my words at face value, u have to listen
Always astute!
Could not drive through Boston in the 70s without hearing this song multiple times a day. Shame they had a "pop rock" stint later in their career. Thanks MTV!
"walk this way" next!!
You must hear all the album "Déjà vu" from Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young"
Steven Tyler (the singer) wrote this song when he was 14 years old.
Top 10 rock sove of all time!
Another great Areosmith track is "Janie's got a gun".
It has a much darker tone. The lyric tells of a girl who was sexually abused by her father. Not the type of thing normally played on the radio at the time, but the song was good enough that the would-be censors couldn't keep it down, and it swept the charts. And to this day, the vocalist, Steven Tyler, runs a non-profit charity, named for the song, "Janie's Fund" to provide help for girls who are the victims of abuse. But the track is absolutely chilling, in a very good way.

Morgan James's cover with postmodern jukebox for dream on is 🔥
Craziest thing is that Steven Tyler wrote the lyrics to this song before he was even 18 years old
What’s really crazy is that Steven Tyler wrote this when he was 14! Talk about an old soul!
Steve Tyler. known as "The Demon of Screamin'" Vibranium vocal cords.
This was the theme of my junior prom - this song makes more sense now - lol
It is just incredible that this was written by a 14 year old Steven Tyler!! He is a incredible musician and lyricist.
Growing up in Massachusetts Aerosmith was part of the air.
This version is great but he nails it live. He’s still smashing it out today in his 70’s!
Nice reaction. Check out Postmodern Jukebox ft. Morgan James (Aerosmith Cover) Dream On.

ALL GREAT AEROSMITH CREATIONS
Great song , great band , young man , I love how you break down what your listening to .. At one time I thought no one could remake this song , or do a remix of it , because of how good the song is ... Trust me , a beautiful woman with a beautiful , and powerful voice remixed this song up .. Same song , but her power behind singing this song , can not be topped by to many women that sing .. Please sir , do Morgan James from PMJ .. Would love for you two combo your words to her voice .. Love your opinion of what you see .. Her hits on this song are the highest I ever seen .. Along with Hailey Rinehart doing the Song "Creep" .. If you want big hits to your channel really fast , as well as helping you climb in numbers to what you see brother , you would listen to the old man
You have got to watch the MTV video for Walk this Way by Run DMC. The lyrics take a back seat to the visuals.
Took me 40 years but figured out the part of lyrics that goes “every time I look in the mirror all the lines and my face looking clearer “ is him just doing lines of coke in the mirror .
Everyone is forgetting get your wings another classic album
That whole first album is fire. You can't go wrong with any of it. And just like Led Zeppelin's first couple albums, introduce me to the left shoulder black music to fall though some of those who originally owned the first album but you get the idea.
Comparing a bunch of derivative posers like A-holesmith to Led Zeppelin (or Floyd) is a sacrilege. The only reason they should be mentioned in the same sentence is to state that they are not fit to carry those great band's instruments.
@@williamjohnson2199 I can tell from that you aren't a real musician like I am. When you are a real musician you can hear everything just as it is to spite your decades-long bias in my case. I will admit that it's difficult but it's a worthwhile exercise and I have gotten very good at it. I can still hate things for all the reasons I hated them but I can also see the value in it and learn lessons from it. You apparently have a bit further to go in that direction with your vitriol.
Can u believe he wrote this at 17. Like your reactions, it's written on your face. Cat Stevens is good peace trn
My favorite bands when I was 10 was were The Beach Boys and Aerosmith. Aerosmiths album “Get a grip” is my personal favorite… it has 12 songs, 6 singles
I’m sure you’ve heard Walk This Way… 😊
Watch Morgan James' cover with Postmodern Jukebox. You'll be blown away.
I always heard the lines on the mirror partis referring to cocaine
Crazy to think Steven wrote this song as a teenage
2nd video in subbed.
Seasons of Wither is classic
Gives thanks to producer jack douglas he knew how to get that rock and roll sound.
The 9.11 tribute epic....... so sad.
You don't need a supposed "epic long song" like stairway to heaven to think it is somehow "the best" by a bunch of corporate nobodies. For sure, this song was a part of Aerosmith's debut album, was ignored. The fact that this song became an ICON later in their career cannot be ignored.
I've been watching "reaction" videos for a few months now, and WHO are reacting from the gut? Just about EVERYBODY for Dream On. Teenage Steven Tyler, son of a renowned classical pianist, wrote this song.
Aerosmith songs worth reacting to: Sweet Emotion, Lord of the Thighs, Kings and Queens, Walk this Way, Toys in the Attic.
And the craziest thing about Steven Tyler....he is Liv Tyler's dad
Steven Tyler definitely went through hardships, but, like me lol, they were self-inflicted.
His voice is so innocent and young sounding. 70s rock stardom had not yet strafed it with cocaine.
Syed…please hit up The Who’s Won’t Get Fooled Again 👍
You were the original with a singer who is a screamer by contrast you should listen to the Post Modern Jukebox version featuring Morgan James.
Cannot play this song in a music store.
Funny song sung by Eminem on his Eminem Show album
I'm ignorant. Always assumed people already knew Eminem's "Sing For The Moment" was sampled from Aerosmith. To me always knew cuz come from a rock n roll listener. Now I realize rap listeners have too much faith in rap. This truth is because much of rap is sampled from rock n roll! Fact!!💥🔴
Do y’all know he wrote this song at 14
Dude. Please. You talk too much and you’re working way too hard at understanding something very simple. Just listen.
You want him to get a copyright strike?
@@dragonballfanscantread2383 I just want him to stop talking.
@@CuttinEJ
So you basically want him to sit there with an expressionless face and then get a copyright strike for not complying with fair use.
Good to know.
@@dragonballfanscantread2383 I don’t really care. I just wanted to listen to the music. His reaction might have been interesting. I’ll never know because the second time he interrupted the music for analysis, I bailed out and listened to it on the album that I bought when it was 1st released. And I left a comment that was intended to be constructive criticism.
@@CuttinEJ
Why tf are you even here if you wanted to listen to the music?
This is a review/reaction, not a listen along.
Go listen to the record by yourself if you so badly want to hear the music.
