Hell ya iam here keep your heads up
@@TJ-zi5zn Sorry to hear that!
Lord forgive me for my ignorance
This song made me cry as a little boy in 1990, and it still does today.
Thank you to all our Vietnam veterans. And if nobody ever told you this back then, I'll tell it to you now... WELCOME HOME.
made me cry buckets as well The poison song something to believe in My great grandfather was in the war as well number One rip to My great grandfather
Awesome!! I Love it ❤️ Welcome Home and Thank you for your service.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and God Bless you.
Beautiful song makes u think
Thanks Bro 🤘
Thank you to my Uncle Bill and my Brother in law that both served during Vietnam. To all that were there thank you and Welcome Home. You all deserved that welcome home parade like they did for WW1 and WW2
After my Father died in 1990, I used to listen to this song over and over again. And 33 years later it still hits my soul. Right On Bret Michaels for this one.
35 years for me
Faster Pussy Cat has a good one too! "House of Pain"
God rest your father.
Give me something to believe in! 1:25
Sounds like your father made a good impression on you. May he rest in peace.
I'm never alone with Jesus by my side 🙏🙏🙏☺️
Amen 🙏
Take me back to 80's and 90's where the music was awesome and meaningful ❤️❤️❤️
😢🥹🥹 missing olden days like crazy , i wish we can...hmmmm 😥
Or as far back as the 50's where it all got crazy- FOR THEM?
And I was dancing on my dads toes to every song
when the hair bands had great music and then there was also QUEEN awesome times
Music still is. Every generation makes music. It's just that as we get older we stop listening.
To all of our Vietnam Veterans, those who are still with us suffering, and those who God brought home, Thank You for your courage, bravery, and determination . You'll never be forgotten.❤
I second that. I met a gentleman at my job that told me he fought in Vietnam. I thanked him for his Service but he refused to accept it. He told me his job was to go in and eliminate all the women and children. That broke my heart you could clearly tell that haunted him clean up to his dying day. I almost started crying in front of him because I knew that's not what he wanted to do but that's what he was told to do. RIP Barry and thank you for your service
Bullshit I don't follow that order
@@eaglefan8493 sounds like total BS: real combat vets rarely talk about what they did, and real men don’t murder women and children.
Just a thank you to every Vietnam veteran, welcome home brothers with loving welcome arms. No judgment , just thank you for your service. You were called apone and did what you had to do for this country. Let the country answer for what you had to do.
GOD Bless Our Veterans 🙏
Heroes never forgotten 💖
Best song they ever made.
I dedicate this song to all of us who lived in the 80's and 90's that experienced a great one-of-a-kind time and now are wanting to go back in 2024.
I was born in the wrong decade I swear
Yes
You don't get to "dedicate" this song. It was already dedicated to someone by the person that wrote it when he wrote it.
Amen to that. A completely different world. F
Yessss!!!! Straight facts!
Im from Canada
And have nothing but respect for a war veteran
Thank you all
shake your hand
As Desert Storm Vet, this song gave me realization of what Vietnam vet ptsd is. It's so real to me. My heart goes to my brother in arms who suffer from this.
U.S. Army 1962 > 1965. I never get tired of listening to this song; brings back many memories.
Thank you for your service brother
Thank you for serving before I existed in 1970.
Thank you for your service! Lost my brother in law in Afghanistan! love this song! 1970 Baby here !!!
Thanks to the bankers wars ! God Bless you uninformed lost Soules 🙏🙏🙏
Thankyou for your service
I support our troops n vets my grandpa was Vietnam vet thank you to all of you God bless you all

❤❤❤@@MrBonediver
Listening to this as a 20 your old woman in 2024 my papa used to sing this and every rose has its thorn when I was a baby and to this day I listen to it every night I wish my generation had music like this
But you do…. It’s right here for everyone to listen to and celebrate.
But, at least you've got a Surviving Heart....This is a Masterpiece and all of the members, Especially, Steve Perry ❤❤❤
It is not just a memory now having these kind of music in '80's....I have them in me. Thank you for giving us the greatest music decades.
Totally agree ,so many memories
Yesss
My girls grew up listening to this band. My first daughter passed away at the age of 26 & loved this song & many more & would sing it on top of our coffee table like a rock 🌟 & always said this is for you momma❤ the vision will forever be with me ❤ we also had the pleasure of meeting you in Charlotte nc ❤️ 💙 God bless
❤ 2:40 2:54 2:55
So sorry mom I know you miss your baby Dearly 😢❤
My heart truly bleeds for you, Michele. I cannot imagine any loss more painful than that of a child. I am happy that you have the wonderful memory of your beautiful daughter not just singing - but devoting - this song to you.
I will pray that you take solace and comfort in knowing that she is now in her rightful place in God’s Kingdom smiling down upon you.
I also pray for you and your family that you continue to remember those wonderful moments with your daughter. 🙏
A great song and what a lovely memory. I'm very moved by it. Be strong for her and you take take care of yourself.
100% total and complete disabled vet. Thank you for producing this video. Brought me to tears.

Thank you for your service and sacrifice. I hope you are getting all the help you need. I cry at this song all the time. Peace and love ❤️ 🙏🏻
Thank you for your service ❤️
So grateful for brave men and women like you! God bless you
Thank you for your service for making our country a free country
This song always gives me chills. Music isn't what it used to be.
I have not heard this in years. It’s one of my favorite songs y’all performed. I’m so sorry for the Vietnam veterans, your friend, the homeless and the ills in our society that still exist today in 2023. Lord, Bret, you wrote beautiful songs. Sometimes I wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then. Give me something to believe in. Amen. Thank you for sharing these beautiful songs with us.
My husband a pastor requested this at his funeral in 2011. Still can’t play it without crying.300+ people at his funeral.
Much Love to You My Friend ❤️🤗
Yeah darling I graduated 1989 but I was born January 12th 1970 darling
May He rest in The Present of our Lord In And Through Christ Jesus Amen
Melanie
Rest in paradise. ❤
I just served 18 mths in a state prison for drug related offences. I first heard this song at the age of 14. I am 44 now. This song played thru my head the whole 18 mths and i really had nothing to believe in. Today i am sober and clean from all drugs. Now i believe in myself. When you think there is no where else to turn, turn to yourself and believe in yourself. To all the addicts out there i believe in you. You can do it.
fucking brilliant Jason, that is powerful, keep striving mate! 👊
Congrats Jason, that's awesome!!!
Stay that way!!!! Clean and sober! You can do it!!!!
God bless you! Good job getting clean.
@@nicholasspears2025 he said he first heard it when he was 14, and that he is 44 now. So basically HE was referring to his own life; that he's and loved the song from since he first heard it WHEN HE WAS 14.
As a 51 year old veteran and old journeyman, this song pulls the old heart strings every time.
There are times, I wonder how and why I'm still alive.
I don't mean to bother you sir I know that you are a vet too and I'm super proud of you for serving our country but I was wondering maybe you could help me my wife Chelsea who also is a vet to who served 12 years in the United States Air Force she retired with full benefits everything and now she's being called back into active duty but she's fully retired and they will not listen to her do you know anybody at the VA who is an attorney who can help us and if you could please respond back I would appreciate it and thank you for your service and remember it wasn't your fault you did nothing wrong
@@joshhorvath7151 I didn't serve your country.
I served mine.
@@bohemianwriter1 while I was wondering can I ask you a question then my wife Chelsea is who served 12 years in the Air Force got out full benefits everything's good now I guess supposedly she's going to be called in to active duty again but she's retired though do you know anybody who can help us
It wasn't your fault brother. You got fucked by the system.
I'm 49 I'm trying to figure out what ur a vet from...desert Storm?
My Lord, this songs timeless❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏼 God be with us all
Jesus!!!!!! You are good and you are Faithful Father.
AMEN AMEN AMEN
And Jesus NEVER sinned.
Jesus only sinned when he took it in the butt that one time, But we don't talk about that much.
Always!
When this song first came out I was just a teen getting drunk with friends and rocking out. Now that I’m older I can’t listen to this song with out getting teared up. Not just because I understand it more and the words hold true today but all the friends i’ve partied with that I’ve lost along the way. This song brings me back to a time when things were simpler. Those are Memories I will never forget.
absolutely. too many now.
Exactly.
ditto.........
"Take me back to the rocking horse." 💜
I totally agree even though your comment also brought a tear to my eyes. It really did seem so much easier back then, carefree, joyful. Exciting. Now as we have gotten older & understand the world a lot better there are days when it is hard to find that "something" but we must never give up on looking for it.
✌️ ❤️ 😊
My daddy was a suicidal Vietnam vet, this song breaks my heart, I saw it firsthand how the Vietnam war tore a person's soul from their chest. I watched him suffer for years. I LOVE YOU DADDY... RIP
RIP SIR
I love your daddy for his bravery! What a good man!
Mine was similar. He was a navy frog man ; before the seal program. He was heavily involved in the cold war, believe me ,those guys saw plenty of action. And, sometimes had to do the unthinkable; he paid his dues and then some. He led a very productive life after that , but had night terrors the rest of his life. He said he never had dreams anymore, he just didn't remember. It may be a terrible thing to say; but I am glad he doesn't have to see what he fought against so hard; communism on American soil.
hugs n prayers ty for your daddy's service rip
sad how they treated them when they came home my brother in law served in Vietnam thankful to n for him.
"Welcome Home!" to your father. "Welcome Home!" to my father. "Welcome Home!" to all Vietnam vets.
This song came out when I was 22 and I remember how awesome it was. I cannot believe 32 years ago I was there listening to a legend 💔
Brett Micheal’s. Terribly underrated song writer.
He nailed this beauty awesome song
This is my favorite Poison song because of the message in it. Especially when Bret says, "Sometimea I wish I didn't know now, the things I didn't know then" I'm sure we all feel that way sometimes
Absolutely!
Definitely their best song lyrically.
Absolutely
It IS a great line. Bob Seger used it in Against The Wind in 1980.
Bob Seger said it first, but no harm in saying it again. It resonates every time.
It’s 2023 and the lyrics and video are still relevant today. Poison really hits home with this song. It really does make me feel and think. That’s what a great song will do, I believe!
2023. Still needing something to believe in
@@mystify4149 believe that the new world order is already in place and the United States was usurped by international banks
Lighters up here in Pennsylvania... After everything I've been through in the last few years, I always come back to this song whenever my days are darkest.
Beautiful song a favorite❤
Yes man im from the philippines...2023...i still listen to poison...i feel young again when listening to songs of my time...now im 46...
Jesus Saves and is Someone we all can believe in. Our only purpose is to give praise to our creator, our Lord Jesus Christ.
That's Right😊
Amen 🙏
Ohh you are full of shit , because he ain't done a thing for me!!!!😂
amen..posted bout Jesus two years ago..not one like...sad,.
Thank you for your mercy and grace Lord
Jesus is Beautiful 🙏🙏🙏☺️
Jesus definitely saved me he gave me something to believe in he gave me my life back❤
My father, a Vietnam vet, cried 25 years of mental tears. I thank Poison for this poignant song.
My father still screams in his sleep about the war.
My father, too. He is a Vietnam nam war hero Marine who guards the gates of heaven now. ♥️
@@CoOlKiDclocktimefry So sorry. My dad would walk around the house late into the night and talk to his deceased comrades.
@@crzymonkey80 Dad was a Marine as well. Semper Fi!
My thoughts will always be with wherever he is thank you for his service and dedication to our country
Masterpiece never gets old
I just woke up in the middle of the night with this song in my head. March 5th, 2024. I don't think I've heard this in years.
Just going to sleep been up since I I woke up at ten 😮
@@MustangSally-zz4icSleep well 🩷
God speaks in mysterious ways. Whats he saying to you
This was my favorite song at 15 years old. I had suffered a traumatic brain injury in a car wreck, being in a coma for six to eight weeks, my parents who only listened to gospel music played this song over and over on cassette tape until I was awake and in rehab, then I still played it constantly. I still l still listen to it on my phone sometimes as I do think it has substantial meaning for people in the world today ❤️
Aimee listening to this song over and over again and reading through the comments all very poignant then reading yours i could cry, i also acquired a severe brain injury n i echo your comment and second it. 🇮🇪🤘💓
I been on life support over 3 months from drugs the last time was a wreck my ex hit someone I wound up in Vanderbilt on life support again for 3montha with broke neck
I was hit by drunk driver passenger in my dad's truck,8 years old.1971.
God Bless You Aimee! 💗
Your amazing
I got something to believe in. God, Love, and Peace.
Me too.
I agree 😊
Amen to that brother!!!!!!
God not today peace not today until you wake up from your dreams of that
@@carlosa.taboas9291 TY for reply. I don't even know if ty means thank you 😀
Jesus will always give you everything you ask for if you Believe 🙏🙏🙏☺️
I think they wear calling Power ballades back in the day
You could not have said it any better
Probably the greatest song of all time and couldn't come at a better time
"Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now things I didn't know then". 25 years later, and that line (and this entire song) still move me like the day I first heard it as a highschool kid with my whole life ahead of me. Thanks for the memories, Poison.
yep yep
+G Sam I'M OLD!!!!!!!!! I love all this, with the past memories, very weird. Very bittersweet.*sigh
I will be 50 next March! graduated HS in 1985. I can remember when it could not get here quick enough, now I wish it would slow down!
me too
Ditto!
This song brings me to tears every time. I'm a veteran of the United States Marine Corps and it makes me remember those that paid the ultimate price and their families for the beautiful gift of freedom that we enjoy every day. Thank you my brothers in arms! Love you all.
i fucking love this comment, it is non-judgmental, it just says you are thinking about your bros because of this song - i have never served in the forces but from listening to this, it makes me think about you guys and makes my heart bleed...bless you all 🙏
As an Army veteran myself, thank you for walking the walk
Thank you! Love you too
Thank you for your services, sir.
Semper Fi Bro.
30+ years later and this song still turns me into a blubbering mess.
And the lyrics still ring true in 2024
You aren't alone. I don't know how Bret kept His composure singing it. I can't sing along without losing it but I'm ok with it.
Time for Christ to be seen and I share him daily on my channel w great music like these guys
Who would have thought, after all these years, the most overlooked ban in the 80s, would have the strongest message to the ENTIRE WORLD TODAY!!!
THANK YOU!!!!♥️🙏
This song is amazing!
Helped me through rough times!
Poison was never overlooked then or now...
En chile se bailo está música.
I loved poison and I don’t know why you think they were over looked. They were one of the most popular bands out there in the day.
Hello were in chile in My country ..
My dad served in the war got cancer from the agent orange..thank you dad for serving our country. Miss you. RIP
My dad had cancer never knew where from but prolly over there. God bless cheers
Dito
We need to scream this around the world. RIP
I'm sure today he would be so proud..
Awesome government we have. They spit on those men who came home. Turned their back on them I’m so glad society changed. God bless those men who died and sacrificed
Song here has true mean of great music
In this moment in time, we need these words to have it all make sense. Sometimes I believe we have these different ages of trials and tribulations because this is what mankind believes is wanted by the masses or it is what they want to push on all of us. I'm standing by in 2024 to keep by any means, the life I believe in..
Hits harder now than it did back then.
Everytime I hear this song it reminds me of my grandmother. It was the last Thanksgiving that we spent together. She was in the living room, watching TV and I was in my bedroom listening to my poison CD. This song came on and the next thing I know, my grandmother, with her walker, had walked into my room and asked me to play this song again. When the song ended, she said that's a very special song. She asked to hear some other songs, so I played Every Rose Has It's Thorn. She said that's a really good song too. She asked what else do they sing. So I played Unskinny Bop. When that finished, my grandmother said, "Well I guess they have a wide range of talent" and then she walked back out to the living room. It's the last memory I have of my grandmother before she passed away.
You should post this on Poison's FB page. It is a beautiful story, and they will appreciate hearing it. They are great guys who really care about their fans.
Thank you
John Kuhne wow, what a wonderful lifetime memory. Thanks for sharing it.
That hilarious and very special!
Thats awsome. Im sure theres alot of us who just read your story thinking back of a good memory of their grandmother. Couple weeks ago my dad gave me a homemade stool i use to sit on at my grandmothers coffee table to eat my lunch. I watched Gilligan s island and lil rascals on the tv. I took the stool home. Sat it next to my coffee table n got something to eat. As i sat esting my pumpkin pie i started to cry. Just a wow moment. Its been close to 30 years since i last sat on my lil stool at memeres house.
Music is trash now days except for a tiny handful. This song is a timeless tune. Love it !!! Great job Brett🎸🤟💙🇺🇸
Poison is the greatest band of the 80s, and that is a bold statement I realize.
The lyrics are timeless and still have meaning today. To all who have served and to all who made the right decisions in life I for one wish you all well.. ❤️
Beautiful comment ❤
Thank you for your service God Bless America
I support peace ✌not war !
My mom and dad are dead. It hurt like hell. But u do get over it. It does take time.
@@SUGAR_XYLER be ko xx i deer gf say t HCS try bff is ok
I love this song because it mentioned my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I'm going to Heaven when I die in the loving name of Jesus Christ.
To all the Veterans near and far those who are still fighting and to the ones who gave it All God bless you
Feelings..straight from the HEART..Pure..nuthin more..God Bless the 80s..Great tunes..
3 Tours in Iraq, this song saved my life. Use to play it over and over drinkin' Beam straight out of the bottle. Got my life straight now
God Bless!
RESPECT! And thank you man
Monte Tate thank you for your service
I prefer Bacardi 151...
Good for you!! powerful song!
At this point in time we all need something to believe in. This song is an awesome start!
I agree with u
DenaL112 I went through a really rough time and this sing really spoke how I felt
in the hospital right now give me Something to Believe In
Jeremy Smith blessings & keep believe in.....One of how many but surgery next week so ✌
Mike Sawyers this is Bob Sawyers and I'm in the hospital right now too listening to the same tunes
It's Friday October20,2023A.D.
Austin Texas -i Jacob still Rocking out to Poison
I was born in 1979 and I have been a fan of Poison since 1986. Dallas Texas
Love y'all's music - the realest words. The world needs something to believe in!
This song was underrated. This is a song we need right now. I know this song hit #4. Overall Poison was overlooked because their were so many 80's rock bands.
Share it.
@@MalibuGlassMI I did
this whole album was really good IMO
So correct vickie god bless you✌✌✌✌
I played this at my sister's funeral she was murdered and homeless so they didn't care
God Bless all the Veterans along with their families and anyone suffering or in pain... This song is so poetic and full of truth!! 💋💙💜
Thank you friend......means a lot. USN OEF/OND Boots on ground
@@andrewblack293 Thanks kindly for your service 👍🙏⚓
God bless
My son is currently in rehab he is suffering from PTSD because he doesn't know what is out there to relieve his suffering he is trying different drugs not prescribed and I'm sure he's wandering what to believe in at no fault of his own.
I pray that he finds the right drug/path/treatment... Best Wishes!! @@toniajenkins921
A song with a strong message
Josey Scott brought me here. His strength gives me something to believe in. Saliva and Poison 4Ever!!!!! You guys ROCK!!!!!!!!
This song still bring back the same feelings it did the very first time I heard it when It was released. I was just a kid and now that I’m grown, the words just hit so hard. Timeless piece
I agree so much
Yes it diffently does hit home for me
hits harder now, after one of my best friends took his own life..
Good song
I just replied good song. I was wrong. This song is a generation song I was 18 when the song came out. Now you can actually feel the lyrics
I'm 70&this songs message hits Home every time I hear it. I"m a Vietnam Era Vet&know many of my Brothers who were there&are still messed up. We all need something to Believe in.
Randell Thank you for serving our country.
Don't believe in some false religion.
Randall Odegaard I salute you! I cannot even imagine what you guys went through, but you do deserve more respect and help than you've ever been given
❤
Hope all is well. War has done some serious damage to millions of our brothers in arms and very few get the proper treatment they need. So many end up with nothing. This song really hits it out of the park
Just when I think I can’t love Bret Michaels any more (or more than I did when I had a poster of Poison on my wall circa 1988), he goes and adopts a dog, named Bret Michaels, that helped save the life of a kitten, after hearing about the story via a rescue group's social media page and via his sister who lives in the area (apparently).
So far, it appears Mr Michaels has only slightly altered the 6-year-old husky's name to Brett Jr. Thank you so much for adopting a 6-year-old dog and for helping find that very lucky kitten a home, sir! 🥰
Now, please get down here to Australia sometime, please and thank you 😊
And, THANK YOU FOR ALL GIVE. YOU give US ALL EVERYTHING EVERYDAY ❤ YOU GIVE US SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN... NOW AND ALWAYS ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
Still love this song 30 years later in 2020.
It's one of my all time favourite Poison songs 👍🍺
Got the headphones on and volume maxed,, Just listened to Nuttin but a good Time
Yes me too
you know it
:)
Especially now, we all need something to believe in
Why is music not made like this anymore? This is amazing!
i wonder too
Ain't enough money for the greedy bastards. There a lot of street musicians who can bring it just don't have multi million dollar companies backing them!
Because it's not music anymore. The record companies go after the money. And now days there's younger people think that rap is music. And I have always said that rap is not music not even close. I really thought green day was going to be the band to save the younger people from that DUMBASS SHIT rap but they just disappeared. I saw green day as really rock and roll they remind me of THE WHO they were that good.
Seems nobody knows how to write music from the heart, it's all about the money machine turning with no heart or soul behind it. Miss the music I grew up with. Feeling, soul, heat, touching millions of people. Good Ole days. Sigh.
@@jimwelsh997 check out dirty honey and greta van fleet, greta sounds like led zeppelin and dirty honey sounds like guns n roses mixed with aerosmith.
My late Mom said that Brett Michaels had thee most beautiful face of all the men in the world.... 💙💜
This band is a multifaceted multi generational group. With the struggles they have had they somehow come out giving 1000 percent I am so glad to have grown up with them. Their music saved my life I was home less at 13 with 2 changes of clothes a Walkman and a few cassettes and everyday started with cry tough and it got me up whether it be in the rain or a friends car and helped me look at life as something to work for. All these years later I managed to make something of myself and I have to thank them for lighting the fire for me that still flames today. I don't regret my life and they helped me in a way only time could showed me. 💯 I am lucky to have had that I don't know what I would be if I didn't have the right energy to choose my path. But I know that their joy and love for music. Saved my life. Sounds silly to some but here I am and as long as they are I think we can all agree even in this downtime like the message in this song says. We gotta cry to, to get what we want even if all want nothing but a good time. Just never give up. Wherever you are in life what ever gets you through the day. Be proud. They didn't give up and even after the decades they gave us their best and the message is clear. Life is short don't miss a moment wasting energy on the things that bring you down or can'tcontrol. Peace and passion rock strong!
wonderful
Wow! Thanks for sharing. I got some wisdom from your words, especially the part about not wasting time on the bad stuff. Thanks. 🙏
@Lee S today is the perfect day to start living and if it isn't up to par start again tommorrow. Keep the peace and love and keep it rocking
@@stephaniebehrens7317 well said stephanie. my father kicked me out when i was young. im 58 now. been through alot and my health aint to good. but i still fighting the good fight as Triumph song says. be strong and move on.
@bill songs. keep strong and yes the music in you will keep you going each song is a song that means I made it hat much further that's what I love about these people who had such an impact on us even if they will never know. We do. Keep it up bret is older than you haha.
I had the pleasure of seeing them in concert and they were outstanding. This song has always struck chord with me but the older I get the more impactful it is.
Going to see them august 5th✌🏻🤟🏻🤘🏻
I went to see them just for that song. I enjoyed the show. That song was the best part of the concert. I still get teary eyed every time I play it. So much truth and passion. Todays music doesn't compare in any way at all
in my younger days, i went to poison concerts every year
Nothing will ever live up to the 80s, So many memories ,
Take me back to the 80’s
You got that right
How can anyone not feel the words, truth and strength behind the words in this song?
Have 35yrs away from drugs and alcohol and 1 and a half yr no gambling. THank You Jesus, I,Love you
If they still made music like this this world would be a better place...
Hi I recommend an indie rock song called 'looking into the mirror' By Robert Nix
Hello
How are you doing today?
Nice to meet you here
Stay out of my yard though!!!
Quit touching all my stuff!!!
AMEN!!!
This one of Poison more underrated songs, yet in my humble opinion one of their best.
I think it's their best...
not underrated at all,thats just you!
I think it's their best song.
Akeli
Get your hearing checked
@Akeli look up the verses, there's a lot of personal stuff there. The Vietnam Vet he's singing about is his cousin. The best friend that died was his bodyguard, Kimo.
Sad... great song... respect to all the vets God bless you all ♥️🤟
Love this Song...I've seen Poison twice in Concert. ❤ I Love their Music 🎶 🎙🎵 Bravo Brett Michael's!! You're Awesome!!
Thank you Vietnam Veterans for your service ❤
How can you not become emotional with this tune. Poison was not just about glam. CC's solo was undeniable.
Change "was" to "is" in your comment and I'm with you. They're still rockin' bro!
Exactly.
CC is the soul of this song
His solo from Nothing but a good time is one of the best solos in rock and all his fills are perfect for it. He was always overlooked for the speed guys that were popular back then. I don't even remember him ever getting an interview in a guitar mag.
We need this more then ever, in this time. Love u all my people.
It's strange to me that I sang the songs as a kid but never got the meaning behind them. Now as an adult, the words and meaning are so powerful.
truth!!
I was there...it was a meaningful song them. I never understood why it didn't catch on more than it did. Oh well.
every song writin has a meaning, its not easy to wright songs. i googled some song to find meaning

Kristie Adams yes it is so true... I felt your message
My brother past away almost 2 yrs ago , he loved this band so much that he took me to see them on my B-day. Everytime I hear POISON it reminds me of my brother. I love Y'ALLS music . It makes me happy and kinda sad. Poison you're great😂❤😂❤
Yes, I'm here. Still loving and listening to this great music.
Nearly 30 years later and this song still chills me to the fucking core. Beautiful amazing and poignant
Same here. Love Poison now and always
ha, you're a dork
Poignant?
Me too
Truely soul music.
Back when music really meant something. Now all they sing about is nonsense. I'll take a band like a Poison anyday over Nicki Minaj or Justin Bieber.
True That Bro!
Agreed.
Absolutely!
Not really Reginald, there are some bans today that their song really means something, like 3 doors down pages and it's not my time, nickelback saven' me and far away, evanescence my immortal. And then we have creed my own prison and one last breath and much more.
john frazier I'm talking about now. Those songs you mentioned are great and I love them all but that was early 2000.
This song brings back memories, my neighbor returned from Nam after being in a firefight only 48 hours before, landed in San Fran only to have a hippie spit on him. He list it & when he came back to reality, he was standing over the hippie who’s face was nothing but a bloody pulp! A sailor came & told him to go to the USO area & wait for his flight, which he did. He told me this many years later with tears flowing saying continuously “I don’t know why I did it”, but war does crazy things to people? He’s passed on now, but he’ll always be my hero regardless!
For all fans of POISON ❤
2024 anyone
Yes poison for ever
Bret Michaels sings this song so beautifully. And with so much passion and soul! The song and video still brings tears to my eyes.
Now that I’m older, this song hits differently then from when I was a teenager. Love this song.
I feel the same, We are experiences
Same
I always loved this song got me through some hard times made it to 65 unbelievable.. I'm sure this song brought me along my way... Thankful ❤️🙏
Kids nowadays dont know what good music is . Im glad i grew up with rock en roll wasrockenroll
The saddest part of this song is about him getting the call about his friend dying on Christmas Eve. That part always chokes me up.
john tracy no the saddest part is 22 years of mental tears cries a suicidal Vietnam vet. but I guess only vets understand
@@stevejordan5141 Are you gatekeeping being sad?
What u said.
This song has something in every verse that touches me. The whole thing just makes me bawl me face off....
Ahh okay
Never judge a book by it's cover...... long hair Rock bands, biker dudes wearing leather jackets, the kid at school who wears all black, the computer nerd with glasses, anyone who has a different skin color than your own. Just try talking to someone different and you'll find out we're all not so different. We all have feelings, we care about the same things.
We all need something to believe in.
Damn I miss the sexy hair bands!👊💞
Gbees parker preech🙏
Amen to that
This rings true esp today!
Stfu
CC absolutely crushes the guitar.
I was married for 34years, divorced in2020. I didn't know it at the time but was diagnosed with severe PTSD and Narcissistic Abuse Syndrome, I never heard that term b4. I listen to this song everyday for strength and Courage. from all the hell I have been thru.
Thankyou this song ❤
This song brings back so many memories
Poison NEVER got the respect the deserved....an 80s hair metal band etc....well this song proved they could write and play...beautiful. thanks guys :-)
David Stewart, I second that. They were very underrated and underappreciated.
They didn't get the respect because they looked like women.
they unfortunately, got lost in the shuffle. but then again when your major competing bands were G'n'R and Metallica...
They would have done a lot better without wear mommy's makeup and dressing like girls , case in point Metallica is still huge
Are you kidding me..poison is huge, kiss is huge (wore moms make up). They got the respect they deserved...there are many other bands that got lost in shuffle. Every Mothers Nightmare, Winger, WASP, Dangerous Toys...shall I go on
i had given up on life sometime back. due to a severe addiction to heroin. yet i found something to believe in. an if i had not found that id probly be dead now. 2 years clean and sober. so i hope you all find that something to believe in..
Good for you I'm a recovering addict and yes if God hadn't saved me I'd be gone. It's sad I get angry when people talk about addiction with no knowledge of its power. We don't wake up and think hum I'm going to destroy my life and my family's.
Yep, drunk here. God willing, it'll be 13 years for me this November. Never been a fan of this band, but I've always loved this tune. It SAYS something. Wish they would've done more like it.
I pray it's three years for you now William!....God bless you brother.
Great man, keep it up It gets better !
Im so proud of u keep your head up life is to short to 💯😀
I heard the song for the first time years ago and it turned my whole life around I am now 4 years sober and I feel so much better now I'd really like to thank Brett Michael's for writing that song he gave me something to believe in and that's myself,
This song goes out to anyone like me, who is going through shit right now. Things will get better
