I've got 4 words for you ...........CAN YOU DIG IT!!!
Don't forget about this months ►But Can You Play This?► goo.gl/KwBaZq
Robert Baker you never did say nothing about my idea I have, if you like it you can use it. Check this out people pay 5 dollars to enter a contest to play their own song and with the money that's collected for it the winner receives most of the money people vote online for what they thought was the best song but it has to be their own original song. People play stuff in you tube all the time and all it gets them are likes. This would put money in their bank account. And it wouldn't also be a way for them to express originality. Their would be a second and third place also and a percentage going to the pgerson who put it together and made it possible. Like possibly you for instance. The only thing I ask is that it has to be their own original riff. Please comment if you like. This could really be something for people instead of the same old. I got 15 likes in you tube for playing a Metallica song today? How about a cool 500 or a thousand dollars for playing a minute and a half of your own song.
Hi Patrick I think that's a fantastic idea. The biggest part would be the time it would take to put something like that together. Perhaps In the future we can do something like that its a great idea.
Hello Robert. All right .. I'm Brazilian and I was your fan .. very cool your channel .. I would like to see a video showing your studio since I have a very different reality .. thanks
Robert Baker 😙 your video
not a big europe fan but they actually sold 25 million albums
J Anubis big enough fan to know their records sales...
Mr. 8:45 as you type on the website connected to the entire database of all informatiom ever
he googled it dawg lol
J Anubis Fair enough but if you ask most people to name a Europe song they're gonna pick Final Countdown. I can only think of one other song of theirs.
Cherokee, Carrie, Rock the Night... ok, all the same album, but they are hardly a one hit wonder.
Funky Monkey1886 that’s your fault then! They have 12 studio albums and still going strong today with the release of their new album ‘walk the earth’. Not many bands last that long! They’re still big in Uk and Europe?
Europe are not a one hit wonder they maybe that in the U.S but in europe they're kind of a big deal
Totally agree with you there, and they still make great music!
Same with Tom Cochrane he was huge in Canada
Dammit when you played My Sharona all I could hear in my head was Cheech Marin screaming "MY SCROTUM"
Mountain and The Darkness? I never thought of them as one hit wonders. The whole Nantucket Sleighride, Climbing, and Lesslie West's Mountain are amazing albums. Permission to land, and hotcakes too.
My sister loved Rick Springfield so much I went to see him with her in 1983. I have to say he killed it and I’ve seen a lot of concerts in my life. To this day every year for her birthday, I call her and when says “Hello?” I play Jessie’s Girl. It’s tradition now, everyone knows about it and I mean everyone. It’s hysterical!
I just saw Rick Springfield play this past Sunday, and I have to say... this dude is looking good for 69 years old. He played up a storm too, I wouldn't say he's a one hit wonder because he has more than a few popular songs and other big successes.
Great Video ... again ... ! 👌
Please show us all your Mini-Amps, would be great! 😃
Regards from Austria 🎸🤘
Rick Springfield was hardly a "one hit wonder".
Don't Talk To Strangers, Love Somebody, Calling All Girls and Love is Alright Tonight are well known songs by him.
depression inc. human touch, bruce
Yeah, Rick Springfield is far from a one hit wonder. And neither is Tom Cochrane. Or Mountain.
One hit wonder has a technical definition that I believe is directly related to chart placement? I could be wrong but that could explain that.
Wikipedia defines "one hit wonder" as: "A one-hit wonder is any entity that achieves mainstream popularity and success for a very short period of time, often for only one piece of work, and becomes known among the general public solely for that momentary success. The term is most commonly used in regard to music performers with only one top-40 hit single that overshadows their other work." (source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-hit_wonder). Still not valid?
Dont think Mountain was a one hit wonder. They played the first Woodstock. Love your vids Robert!
Whaouuu great sound and playing !!!!
Mosrite Joe Maphis copy...GOTTA LOVE IT!
Loved it, altough Europe has some other big radio hits. Great idea for a video and worthy of a part 2 including Stacy's Mom, The Reason, Mr Jones and many others :)
Can you do good riffs from bad albums or vice versa(bad riffs from masterpieces) ?
Daniel Diaz I second this idea
St anger riff
Ur Mum As somebody who's learned most of the album, just about every distorted riff is basically the same. Then the slow and clean sections that sound pretty similar, too.
Shrub Plays oh okay fair enough. I don't know how to play the whole album but only st anger. It's a rlly easy album tho so I could learn it.
Anybody who's learned their other songs could easily learn the album. The only (main) riff that's really different is Invisible Kid. :D
Son of a motherless goat! Europe...one hit wonders!? Carrie? Rock the night? Cherokee? Careful Robert, you go too far.
Eh.. I agree with him
Dave but is he wrong? It's the only song the average person will hear by Europe and I honestly I've never heard of those songs you mentioned
But my beliefs are the only ones that matter. Now I'm gonna go home and bite my pillow.
The average person will only know The Final Countdown but they are not one hit wonders by definition.
Was just about to point the same thing out. Cherokee and Carrie were huge hits.
Darkness? One hit wonder? You take that back REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Wasn't Christmas Time also a hit? Most of those who think they're one hit wonders probably haven't heard any other song by them.
That Dan electro is cool ! What model is it?
Sorry Robert, but The Ventures covered "Wipe Out", and were NOT 1 hit wonders. It was the Surfaris that wrote/recorded "Wipe Out" and made it famous. The Surfaris were pretty much a 1 hit wonder. The Ventures had hits like "Walk, Don't Run", "Hawaii Five-O", "Pipeline", "Telstar", "Apache" and MANY others. Great video nonetheless.
ahhhhhh thats right
Man this guy is an idiot, ventures are far from a one hit wonder; surf rock gods
@Steven Tyler Bass. It's all good man, we all make mistakes. I pointed out the error, and he's already admitted the mistake. Let's not bash Robert too hard, he's a great guy.
Wasn't "Apache" The Shadows though?
The Ventures covered MANY songs from other artists, but they made them hits. You very well may be correct.
are you using some kind of octave pedal in the final countdown?
Rock the night is one of the greatest songs by Europe. Not to mention one of my favorite instrumentals is Aphasia by Europe. Great vid man keep them goin!
I dig this tone. Super dirty. Great video man!
Awesome Orange rig bro!!! I know you didn't use it for this video, but the background I can see them lol.
Rick Springfield had some great guitar tunes,affair of the heart,hotel eyes,human touch,
Mountain,Nantucket sleigh ride?
Great video as usual
david lynch he anther hit that most people know but don’t realize it’s him “real American”. Hulk Hogan’s classic theme song.
Really like the list, but as an 80s rock fan, figured youd know about rock the night and carrie by europe, not exactly one hits
Hey Rob do you know any Riot or now known as Riot V(one of the greatest/underrated 80’s metal bands)? If so you should play “Flight of the Warrior” in a future video?
I like that guitar...nice. The Ventures had a lot of great pieces. Radio be damned
I'am playing my Jackson into an EQ into Ibanez tube screamer into metal muff into ah jeezz
coulda threw in blue cheer summertime blues. iconic and pretty much their only hit.
also, if you play mississippi queen you need to summon all the overdrive this world has to offer to get the correct sound for that ditty.
I guess I'll go listen to some Darkness and then Blind Melon's Soup now
Why does it seems like everyone I watch on youtube has this exact same Danelectro guitar lately? Rick Beato used it for his QotSA video, Robert is using it here, and I swear I've seen at least two others in the past week whose names are currently escaping me
What was the orangish single cut guitar sitting behind you to the left?
How do you record your audio in guitar videos? Is plugging the guitar directly into an interface better than having some sort of microphone a few inches infront of my amp?
I wanna start recording guitar videos but my cell phone has good camera and bad audio. What would you advise me that is cheap?
It depends on how good your amp is. If you want a fairly cheap option since audio interfaces can be quite expensive, you can buy the cable for the game rocksmith (around $30) and use an amp sim. There are some good free ones and if you're really desperate you can pirate paid ones. You need to download the ASIO4all drivers though or you'll have crazy latency.
Wipe Out is by The Surfaris. And Europe have had many other many hits as well as Final Countdown
Ok, just wanna say I think Jessie's Girl was wrong and The Ventures were definitely not a one-hit wonder. Maybe a "few-hits wonder"....but still! Gotta stick up for em. Anyway, awesome job regardless and I'm glad to see someone playing the Danelectro Moserite tribute! Can't wait to get one of those in surf green
Yeah new guitar!!!!
Is that an octave pedal I hear?
Darkness have a few more classics, growing on me, love is only a feeling and Black shuck are tunes
The knack are one of the most underrated bands of all time, give them a listen if you're sceptical!
That guitar is so amazing-looking. Although I have the feeling it's equally the sort of guitar that makes some people want to hurl.
Yeah mr. Baker !!
:)
The Darkness.... one hit wonder... I don't think so. You should check out their Pinewood smile album. Solid Gold, All the pretty girls... A masterful guitar lead on Japanese prisoner of love.
Lots of these were familiar from guitar hero :)
(you should make a guitarhero video ;)
That blind melon tone is spot on man!
Tom Cochrane is an amazing artist but as you pointed out beyond Life is a Highway very few people know him.
Which is a shame as he has gone great tracks.
I want that intro you played tabbed out so hard.
Play it at 0.5 speed and use your ears
I could make a 100,000 one hot wonders vid, but they're all pop songs
Rekt
The Poor Gamer haha ikr
Totally looks like a Hi-Flyer (the Mosrite copy)
I am wounded that you think the darkness are a 1 hit wonder band. They had multiple hits and are still going today.
My favourites riffs 0:56 1:23 1:48 4:13 4:20
Dude check out rick springfield he had like 4 excellant songs that were in heavy rotation on the radio and mtv , dont talk to strangers is killer.
Life is a Highway was not a one hit wonder... there was 3 other hits just from that one album. Red Rider also had several hits including Lunatic Fringe which was MASSIVE in the States.
The Ventures had many hits. The original band who played Wipe Out, the Surfers, were the one hit wonder.
Love all the playing and the song choices here but not digging that guitar at all. Maybe you have a noise gate cranked cause the sustain isn’t there. Notes are thin
Sick shirt
Permission to Land had 5 huge singles and went 4x platinum in England, the darkness ate hardly a one hit wonder
How did you not include Paralyzer by Finger Eleven, they’re the definition of one hit wonders. Or the Alien Ant Farm cover of Smooth Criminal
It's been a long time since I heard Mississippi Queen!
My Sharona is on my top ten list of songs I hate most. Mainly because of the weird dip about halfway through that gives you false hope that the song is over, and because when I worked at Kmart that song played at least twice (usually more) per 5 hour shift.
No "Spirit in the Sky?"
What the hell, man?
What the hell?
Oohhh yeeeaahh
Spirit in the Sky would've been a great choice!
Kasey Cochran Alan greenbaum. One of the 1st songs to use a heavy distortion and the song was written as a way to latch onto a rising trend of religious songs that was popular at the time. Oddly enough, Alan’s song became the best remembered. Alan wasn’t even religious.
CamaroAmx isn't it Norman Greenbaum? :p
@@CamaroAmx his name is Norman Greenbaum and he's Jewish
i liked rascals flatts cover of Life is a highway. imo
wildcatter63 LeDoux but agreed
The only thing I like about that version is that it was in Cars
To be honest Tom Cochrane isn't really a one-hit wonder, he had a lot of well-known songs with his band Red Rider. Then again I'm probably just saying that since I'm Canadian
In the UK, the Darkness had five Top-10 singles (and a number 11), across four years, two of which were certified gold by the BPI. HOWEVER, in America, they only had one hit single. So, from an American point of view, they were a one-hit-wonder.
It's the second time in a few days I hear Life is a highway, here and on Family guy. Never heard it before.
Ah man I love Jessie’s Girl!
Children of the Sun - Billy Thorpe and Ah Leah - Donnie Iris
Teenage kicks by the undertones was definitely a one hit wonder
Life is a highway...just came from buffalo wild wings and someone put it on the jukebox
Tom Cochrane...one hit wonder? Not if yur from Canada eh..
Tom Cochrane has so many great songs that I'm offended that Robert just stated that he's a one hit wonder.. Unless he doesn't have a diverse Canadian song selection.
Add in Lunatic Fringe, Big League, Life is a Highway, Avenue A, Victory Day, Boy Inside the Man, Napoleon Sheds His Skin... etc etc . From the days of Tom Cochrane with Red Rider to his name up front he's had hit after hit with more staying power than ...dare I say ....Nickelback (sic). Come on up to Canada Robert we'll fill ya with back bacon and brewskies till you fall on your face. Thank god you didn't say the Tragically Hip were one hit wonders otherwise Canada might have to once again burn down the White House.
I whole-heartedly agree with this and would gladly join in on the bonfire if it were to happen.
Even big league was number 9 in the states
Choosing The Final Countdown makes no sense for this list
why not?
PallyNut Europe was actually popular during the 80s
of this top 10 final countdown to me is the most heard song in radio or something.. so i think it fits
Tom Cochrane and red rider are sooo far from one hit wonders. They're a staple of Canadian rock. Come on man! The untouchable one, boy inside the man, big league, victory day, sinking like a sunset, lunatic fringe!
Pretty lazy rendition of No Rain. Love the guitar. Wipeout sounded rad. Love The Darkness. You can call Tom Cochrane a one hit wonder but it means you're missing out on Red Rider. Neruda is amazing.
I love Jessie's girl. (Both the song and the girl).
hmm I seem to remember that one song by CKY. You know, that one famous one. Their only famous one. With a killer guitar riff.
Where dat 96 Quite Bitter Beings
Infiltrate Destroy Rebuild had an iconic riff on every song, I really wish more people would give it a listen
I don't see why The Darkness is on this? Maybe they're bigger in the UK
Tom Cochrane had a number of hits beside Life is a Highway
You missed In The Meantime by Spacehog.
I may be being a tad ignorant here, so corrrect me if I'm wrong but... Surely Ram Jam would've been a much better choice over either The Darkness or Europe?! This may just be because I'm British though 😂🙈
every song on list is the bees knees my dude
My own worst enemy by Lit?
You need to lower your pickups, there's a lot of noise coming from the strings hitting the pole pieces.
Where's that thing you do
Do you even know what a one hit wonder is? Almost every artist you've shown has had at least two or more hits in their career, not to mention you got 'Wipe Out' wrong. Yes, The Ventures had a version of the song, but they're not the ones who came out with it, let alone had a smash hit with it. That was The Surfaris. And Rick Springfield had 5 top 10 hits throughout the 80s. Sure, 'Jessie's Girl' gets played the most, but I hear most of his other stuff that were hits too, like 'I've Done Everything For You' and 'Don't Talk To Strangers' as well on the radio.
I wouldn’t consider Blind Melon a one hit wonder, as they had a very short career, the band pretty much ending after Shannon Hoon died.
The Darkness Rocks!
Personally offended by the insinuation that The Darkness is a One Hit Wonder band.
They are though. In the US at least.
TBH I was expecting Born to be Wild to be on this list
Tom Cochran had a lot of hits. Every time Miami vice is aired he makes money
#OwnTheTone
Life is a highway is from the canadian artist Tom Cochrane he is not a one hit with wonder at least not in Canada lol
peanut dawg czcams.com/video/U3sMjm9Eloo/video.html
Yea, there was a lot of one hit wonders in the 80's.
Anyone else think of Dethkloks phones during transitioning scenes?
I hear that dethklok intro
Great video, but I can't believe I only just noticed that carpet. It's not nice!
Could dig it more if the horns where flipped
Surprised that I ran wasn’t on here
Stay With Me (the Faces)???
Two things:
1st: He called The Darkness a one hit wonder...
2nd: Played the riff sloppy.
Here ends my obligatory CZcams shitpost.
The darkness were way more than a 1 hit wonder
