Seriously! Was there any greater time to be alive than when Heavy Metal was popular and all over the media? Radio, MTV and even the movies used Metal in the soundtracks. Commercials had Metal music in them. I played rhythm guitar in a crappy Metal band in NYC that never went anywhere and we didn't care because we were having the time of our lives! People dressed in Metal clothes, had badass hair, the women were hot as hell! It was everywhere and it was glorious! 🤘
@Treva Land Europe was a great band in their First Final Countdown,Out of This World and Prisoners in Paradise time but after all that and now they're Bullshit
@@THRUTHESEEYES You seen him live? He completely muffs Marcellos solos, doesn't have the talent to keep up. He can barely play his own solos from the albums correct. Needs about 20 takes to actually sound good. Complete hack.
He's definitely one of the VERY BEST, if he was from America and not Sweden I believe he would have been much bigger, not fair, but the music industry sucks
Hi there! This was shot in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The live shots where done in Amsterdam as wel, the place is called De Melkweg, wich means the milkyway in Dutch. The chick in the clip is the dutch singer/model Monique Klemann from the band Lois lane. Hope this helps! Rock on!
The song sends a message about the importance of moving forward without looking back in search of new love. After all, life goes on and new opportunities will come. As always, good old Rock n Roll with great messages. ❤😊
Awesome 80's number indeed, John Norum is an amazing guitarist, but please note the leadsinger is the swede Göran Edman, an AMAZING singer.👌 Please give him some Credit. 🙏👌🥰🗣
Göran Edman provided the lead vocals on this track and what is ironic is apparently he auditioned for Vinnie Vincent Invasion including this song but didn’t get it (wtf Vinnie?) and then he joins up with John Norum and of course rocks it again!
John is a decent vocalist, but I don't find his singing amazing. He should have had Goran Edman sing the entire Total Control album, he only sings this one and Love Is Meant to Last Forver
Incidentally, Vinnie Vincent, the one who originally wrote this song is also one of those people. He had a great voice! Shame he's batshit insane though.
The full Total Control album is awesome. Brilliant, I listen to it everyday! John Norum rules, no matter if it is in Europe or in his solo carreer. This guy is great and the songs makes me wanna shake my head!
I played guitar in 80's hair bands,cover bands. It was so much fun! Sex,drugs and Rock-N- ROLL. And I've always liked John Norum's guitar playing, top notch.
the bluesy ballad .... of this great guitarist. I'm not from the 80's generation but I can say with a great voice that the music of that time is and will be better.
@@ataalkinnergis4215 Vincent Cusano was a talented up and coming guitarist/song writer that worked with KISS for two of their heaviest albums (becoming Vinnie Vincent in the process).

Essa música é maravilhosa em todos os sentidos This song was Written by: Vinnie Vincent EX-KISS / R.Friedman released in October 1986 Produced by: Vinnie Vincent - But Norus' version just got infinitely better
@@kapteinrdskjegg5285 nonte puedo negar q VV es grande y un gran musico pero en esta cancion esta es la mejor el solo de guitarra es increible yo voy por JN en llesta cancion
John Norum é sem dúvida o Guitarrista mais completo que já vi, ele coloca muito sentimento em cada parte da música em cada nota tocada no solo, pra mim John Norum é o melhor
great clip... loved the story about the guitar !... and the crazy motor biker... who first stole John's guitar, and in the end he stole the woman ... lol ... But our Johnny didn't care now, all he wants is his guitar !
Best guitarist on this planet ever!!! God bless you John, you're the king of guitar, a hero, the most talented guy I've ever seen. You deserve more attention!! When somebody asks me who is my favorite musician I proudly say that it's JOHN NORUM!!!! LOVE and KISSES from Hungary ♥♥♥♥♥😍😍😍😍😍 update: Europe comes to my country omfg i can't believe it. I'll see him play live, my dream will come true soon!!!!
John channeling his inner Gary Moore here, absolutely beautiful!
Spot-ON, that!
@@ogam5 John does a tremendous cover of Gary's 'The Loner.' Closest to the man himself that I've ever heard. Full of feel
Yes, 80’s Gary Moore ! Priceless.
More like Vinnie Vincent who made this song.
@@V3ntilator Yeah it's a tribute cover mate, we ALL knew that. He sounds nothing like Vincent, stylistically he's very Gary Moore-esque.
Ugh the 80's is so pure, So in love with this era, I'll always be an 80's girl :)
Allways be an 80's boy :(
@@darktriad2726 80's boys rock! ^-^
Me too:3 80's fashion, 80's rock music and the whole atmosphere of the 80s is magic. Wanna go back and being a teenager right there.

Me, too!🤟🌹
Love this song, no matter if Vinnie Vincent or Goran Edman/John Norum. Just love it.
Goran Edman is so underrated. What a voice.
Don't you just love the way Goran sings this song?
Felipe Martinez-Aparicio De la hoz I agree the voice of Goran is awesome, the work that he made with Yngwie on Eclipse was very good
who is goran if there is a cove of this song that goran sings can you link it
Ivan Pavlovic Göran Edman sings this song in this exact video.
Felipe Martinez-Aparicio De la hoz I don’t understand why he looks so confused. Hands up in the asking, “Back on the streets?”
The BEST AOR singer in my opinion
nothing beats 80's rock 🎸🎸🎸
That guitar solo is pure gold
whole song is a total stormer
out of this world!
Good enough.
Ive heard much better
@@FiveDORRA good for you 👍
2023
This is so good, and what a guitar player John is, and the singer here, just W O W
Suits perfect together 🙏
Goran edman sings, also
with Madison and yngwie
Rumor has it John rippped off Ymgwie Malmstee his girl and his music.d
Ugh the 80's is so pure, So in love with this era, I'll always be an 80's guy ;)
One real guitar hero. Absolutely underrated.
JOHN NORUM IS VERY BEAUTIFUL! ❤😍🔥🤘🏻🎸
Yes!🎸
I’ll say Tone Norum (his sister) were for me, beautiful 😀🎯
The 80s were the greatest
One of the most underrated guitarists ever.
First three albums are Classic
@Treva Land Europe was a great band in their First Final Countdown,Out of This World and Prisoners in Paradise time but after all that and now they're Bullshit
You kidding? He's trash. Europe got way way better after bringing Kee Marcello in to the band.
@@salozmen29
Trash? Shows how little you know.
@@THRUTHESEEYES You seen him live? He completely muffs Marcellos solos, doesn't have the talent to keep up. He can barely play his own solos from the albums correct. Needs about 20 takes to actually sound good. Complete hack.
Proud to belong to this generation! Rock on brothers and sisters! The 80s are still alive and kicking!
Norum is up there with the best of them.
John Norum is one of the best
Love this song! Great job Vinnie Vincent
Vinnie is nuts, but a damn great songwriter, but John and Goran brought this song to life
@@kamikazekrush3758 Exactly. His solo also much better than Vinnie. No offense to Vinnie though.
Mark would have done this song better but it’s a great tune… whether it’s Jon or VV.
Vinnies singer for this song was funny
The bluesy rock sound of the 80's can't be beat!
Like this sound . klasse. Mega
Best Heavy Metal singer ever. Period.
He's definitely one of the VERY BEST, if he was from America and not Sweden I believe he would have been much bigger, not fair, but the music industry sucks
no es heavy metal es glam rock
@@stevenprime, he sang for Yngwie.
@@stevenprimeamigo, glam rock es de los 70s, Bowie, T-Rex, NY Dolls,etc. Este cantante es de glam metal/heavy, igual que la banda
John has so much talent! What an awesome guitar player .. It's too bad he didn't get quite the recognition he deserves!
Stop this fucking woke shit. This is a cover of Vinnie Vincent.
@@V3ntilator I mean his solo is better than the original one. No offense to Vinnie Vincent though.
@@faiz7180 Both solos are great. Norum covered this because it's a killer song and he's obviously a fan of Unca Vinnie.
Unca Johnny's good people 🤘.
@@willcratch7815 yeah but I just prefer John's solo. I thought it had more emotion on it that's all.
The true aficionados know.
Hi there!
This was shot in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
The live shots where done in Amsterdam as wel, the place is called De Melkweg, wich means the milkyway in Dutch.
The chick in the clip is the dutch singer/model Monique Klemann from the band Lois lane. Hope this helps!
Rock on!
@@f.adradario6478 wut
I've been to the melkweg recently at a party called Night at the arcade. Im from belgium so its not far away. funny fact though
No way that's Monique. Sure that woman looks like her but it's not her
The song sends a message about the importance of moving forward without looking back in search of new love. After all, life goes on and new opportunities will come.
As always, good old Rock n Roll with great messages. ❤😊
As 80’s as it gets.
Miss those simpler times.
Awesome 80's number indeed, John Norum is an amazing guitarist, but please note the leadsinger is the swede Göran Edman, an AMAZING singer.👌 Please give him some Credit. 🙏👌🥰🗣
Göran has an AMAZING voice 🙏
Great vocalist!

This voice is wonderful.......👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Göran Edman! One of the greats!
@@rtrooperw8115 Sure
John Norum 💪
It is a shame that talent like John Norum is underrated, yet all the talentless singers get all the attention.
Matias so true
John is a decent vocalist, but I don't find his singing amazing. He should have had Goran Edman sing the entire Total Control album, he only sings this one and Love Is Meant to Last Forver
This song, and the whole album for that matter is criminally underrated. Just look at the views on this, it's a shame.
+Hellraiser Gordon yeah, such amazing song and feel, but you know people have bad taste, but not us buddy, we love good ol rock
+Joel Trochez Yeppie!
I agree. John Norum's playing is legendary.
There really aren't too many lead guitarists who can also sing like John. Rik Emmett of Triumph comes to mind, but it's a very short list.
Incidentally, Vinnie Vincent, the one who originally wrote this song is also one of those people. He had a great voice! Shame he's batshit insane though.
I totally love John Norum's guitar playing.
Nice vocals as well...I wish they would have made more music...
Vinnie Vincent wrote it. John Norum sublimated it !
80's Hard Rock !!!
The Golden Era of Rock Music !!!
Those were the Days....
That lick @2:56 is sooo his signature, so much emotion!!
Absolute masterpiece rock album.
Its your basic scale lol. All guitarists back then could pull the same thing off lol.
@@chrisb3976 Spot on..simple pentatonic run..obviously Joakim plays the fiddle
One hell of a talented singer
John Norum is One Hot Guitar Player. He has always been My Favorite Band Member of Europe.
The full Total Control album is awesome. Brilliant, I listen to it everyday! John Norum rules, no matter if it is in Europe or in his solo carreer. This guy is great and the songs makes me wanna shake my head!
Aother woke comment. This is a fucking Vinnie Vincent COVER,
I love this album but 1995 another destination had a pretty bad vocalist so it was quite a disappointment for me
dude the vocals and guitar work is out of this world
I see people jumping among people as if they were dolphins in the sea, very funny. John you are a great guitarist ❤
I played guitar in 80's hair bands,cover bands. It was so much fun! Sex,drugs and Rock-N- ROLL. And I've always liked John Norum's guitar playing, top notch.
Excellent guitarist, as good as Kee Marcello !!! Europe for ever !!!
John is a rock god 🤘
Yes ,one from the best guitars .
Море эмоций,что ни песня шедевр,слушать не переслушать,боже какой вокал,с ногсшибательная оренжеровка ! ! !
Norum is magical Guitar player..... one of the best ever no doubt about that !!!!!!!
the bluesy ballad .... of this great guitarist. I'm not from the 80's generation but I can say with a great voice that the music of that time is and will be better.
He had the hooks and the looks thats what 80s hair metal was all about image
