    Skid Row is an American heavy metal band formed in Toms River, New Jersey, in 1986. The band achieved commercial success in the late 1980s and early 1990s with their self-titled debut album, which spawned several hit singles including "18 and Life."
    "18 and Life" is one of Skid Row's most well-known songs. It was released in 1989 as the second single from their debut album. The song tells the story of a young man named Ricky, who gets into trouble with the law at a young age and ultimately ends up serving a life sentence for murder. The lyrics reflect themes of youthful rebellion, consequences of actions, and the harsh realities of life.
    The song's catchy melody, powerful vocals by lead singer Sebastian Bach, and memorable guitar riffs contributed to its popularity and helped propel Skid Row to mainstream success. "18 and Life" remains a staple of rock radio playlists and is considered one of the defining songs of the glam metal/hard rock era of the late 1980s and early 1990s.
    The song's music video received heavy rotation on MTV, further boosting its popularity and introducing Skid Row to a wider audience. Overall, "18 and Life" is a classic rock anthem that continues to resonate with fans of the genre.

    Every girl had a crush on Sebastian in the 80s. I had the pleasure to meet him once at an instore record signing. He was very cool and personable and very good looking in real life. This was about the time he did Jecyll and Hyde on Broadway.

    I personally like their harder stuff better, "Slave to the Grind" (of course!) and "Monkey Business," but to show off Sebastian's voice at it's very best, you've got to introduce her to "Wasted Time." It's not my favorite song of theirs (great song, just not my favorite), but the vocals on that track are the best I've ever heard. The raw emotion coming through is soul crushing.

Now react to "Wasted Time", and hear what those pipes can do! Love your love for this music, and that IS a beautiful intro, then it keeps getting faster and angrier. Powerful video, powerful voice. This was when bands played instruments, people sang, and stories were told. Yeah the intro had that Metallica vibe, so please react to Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters", also has a great intro. ☮️to all

    Definitely agree on that one Sébastien Bach was probably the best to come out in the 80s, and easily ranks in the top five from that period.
    Dio, Dickenson, Halford, and Sammy Haggar. Would be the others in the top 5, but the rest all started in the 70s or earlier.

      But Having heard a lot more Pink Floyd since, and seeing lots of reviewers do Silent Lucidity, all I think now is that If I just heard of that song now, I would have assumed that it was a Pink Floyd song.

But to presume it's the "Jam" and pop this up on YT with no reference where she can grasp, like Hey babe we say him on Trailer Park Boys. THis is just compete laziness and is papper thin.

    I do like Skid Row but Sebastian Bach is definitely not the best singer in that genre he's okay but he's no Vince Neil definitely or Dee Snider you got David Coverdale don't forget Joe Elliott from Def Leppard Bach was okay don't forget Ronnie James Dio. :-) :-)

      Yeah but Joe is in a league all on his own. Dee is ok...Vince Neil? Come on dude! Sebastian can still at least hit SOME of the notes that he did back in the day! Lol. But honestly, my opinions are just that... opinions. Everyone is entitled to them. :)
