Absolutely! And another weird note to that: while they were recording that album, Lynch decided to take classes at GIT in Hollywood. I imagine having him as a classmate must have freaked out some of the kids taking classes at MI at that time.
This is from A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors which is a fan favorite by a lot of people. This song was written for the movie and was originally released as a single on February 10th, 1987. It was also released on Dokken's fourth album Back for the Attack which came out on November 2nd, 1987.
Don Dokken-singer George Lynch-guitar Jeff Pilson-bass Mick Brown-drums The Skull N Bones guitar is a signature piece of George’s. It’s first appearance was in the video for “It’s Not Love”… Do that tune next.
I was thinking the same thing but also taking it a little further. Any song you want to hear or react to, check if it's on Beast from the East and play that version!
Lead singer, Don Dokken, was operatically trained. That's why he can hit those notes with such ease. Although, he said it took many takes in the studio for him to reach that final note at the end of the video.
That happened with Geoff Tate from Queensryche. Just with getting older and his voice changing he has not been able to hit the same notes on songs from The Order or Operation Mindcrime.
@@inrockwetrust73 As we get older our diaphragms loosen up, and for singers like Tate with an "operatic" style, it's very noticeable when that starts to happen. It's happening with me, I used to have a huge range, and an especially high falsetto. Falsetto is gone completely and my natural range is about 2/3rds of what it used to be.
There are currently 9 Freddy films. A Nightmare On Elm Street (1984). A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985). A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987). A Nightmare On Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988). A Nightmare On Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989). Freddy's Dead The Final Nightmare (1991). Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994). Freddy Vs. Jason (2003). All the above with Robert Englund as Freddy, and there was a T.V. anthology series in the late 1980's with Robert Englund called Freddy's Nightmares. Then they made a remake in 2010. A Nightmare On Elm Street (2010).
Don't Close Your Eyes, When Heaven Comes Down, Lightning Strikes Again, Lost Behind the Wall, It's Almost Over, Empire to name a few! The band has many great albums to this day still one of my favorite bands.
Don Dokken was a phenomenal singer back in the day. You should check out "Kiss of Death" , "Lightning Strikes", "Seven Thunders", or "Paris is Burning"...the vocals and riffs are amazing. Another band you haven't touched in a while is Great White. Please do some more Great White. I recommend "Mista Bone", "Heartbreaker", and my absolute favorite "Save All Your Love". BTW, Happy Birthday, J...fellow Taurean. Mine is coming up soon.
Don Dokken lead singer, George Lynch lead guitar, other great songs by Dokken, Turn on the Action, Heaven-sent, Tooth and nail, Just got lucky, The Hunter, Jaded Heart, so many more
That is literally the theme song for the third NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET film (the sequels are incredible). The lead singer is DON DOKKEN (his name is the band name) and George Lynch on lead guitar. Now you MUST check out the song "Love Kills" by VINNIE VINCENT INVASION ... from NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4. I know you like SLAUGHTER, Mark Slaughter may or may not make an appearance on that track 😁 Could be my fave hair-metal song of all time.
This was the theme song for the third "A Nightmare on Elm Street" movie, featuring the supernatural serial killer Freddy Krueger and the teenage "dream warriors" who faced him down. You can see scenes from the movie interspersed throughout the music video.
Don Dokken (vocals) had been in the L.A. scene since the 70's... he formed Dokken in the early 80's and helped raise the profile of the L.A. rock metal bands like Motley Crue, Ratt, Armored Saint, etc. The band was w/ George Lynch (guitar), Mick Brown (drums) and Jeff Pilson (bass)...originally, Ratt bassist Juan Croucier was in Dokken and recorded their debut album 'Breaking the chains'. Despite their platinum success by 1984/ '85, they were marketed like a glam rock band and there was tension between Don Dokken and George Lynch over creative control over the band... After 4 studio albums and 1 stellar live album, Dokken split acrimoniously in 1988... Don Dokken released a solo album 'Up from the ashes' in 1990... Jeff Pilson joined Dio for a while... George Lynch and Mick Brown formed Lynch Mob and released 2 albums. Finally, the classic Dokken reunited in 1994 and released the album 'Dysfunctional' in the 90's grunge era... but the same issues between Don & George led to the guitarist leaving by 1998... Don Dokken has carried Dokken forward, even after both Pilson & Brown left the band.
Holy Schnikies! I can't believe you got to this one! AWESOME SAUCE! This was on the soundtrack (and in the movie) to Nightmare on Elm Street 3: The Dream Warriors, which is a great movie. In fact, since you saw the original, you can actually skip NOES Part 2, because it had nothing to do with the story of Nancy, but Part 3 does and it's pretty cool. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAY!!!
And it would have probably been instantly taken down. The Beatles are notorious YT channel strikers. It's such a short song it wouldn't be worth the time to film, edit, and then go through the head ache of trying to get it up on the channel.
Saw an interview with Lynch where he said he doesn’t remember making this video, was REALLY strung out and on coke when making it. And boy does he look like it. He’s still one of my favs of the era, he managed to capture THAT 80’s guitar tone, I chased that tone for a long time.
The album this comes from is epic front to back. "Heaven Sent" is probably my favorite Dokken song. Also, gotta get back to Femme Fatale sometime and do "Waiting for the Big One". :)
When the movie went to video, (back when we had video rental stores) this music video was added to the end. And that is how I discovered Dokken. 🤣 The actress in the video is Patricia Arquette. I liked her in Medium. Ohh there is a making of where Don and Jeff and telling Robert (Freddy) to go to the liquor store in full on Freddy makeup. LOL
Broooooooooooo! Robert Englund is why I love Horror the way I do. I was 10 when Nightmare on Elm Street hit in 1984 I watched it in the middle of the night and I didn’t sleep right for weeks. But from that day on all I wanted to watch was horror. This song is from the BEST of the series and Dokken had multiple songs on the soundtrack for Dream Warriors. My dream is to one day get to meet Robert Englund. He’s been such a huge part of my life! Welcome to prime time b!tch! One of the best lines of the whole movie!
Actress Patricia Arquette in 'Nightmare on elm Street III'... w/ Robert Englund as 'Freddie Kruger'... Some of the most surreal nightmare scenes put on film for 1987. Dokken said they had good memories making that music video.
Don Dokken on vocal, Mick Brown on drums, Jeff Pilson on Bass and one of the greatest, legendary guitarists ever..Mr. George Lynch. Dokken was one of the greatest bands in the 80's, and their music is still relevant today. This is one of their best songs, and it came off the best Nightmare on Elm Street movies Dream Warriors. Great reaction!
You gotta do Tooth and Nail with the seamless into called "Without Warning" it's meant to be the intro for "Tooth and Nail". Jay you are gonna rock fiercely to this!!!!! It kicks off their first album in a big way.
Patricia Arquet was the actress in the video and in Nightmare on Elm Street 3, She's done a lot of great movie.Her Brother David was Dewey in Scream, her sister Rosanna was the wife of the red haired guy in Pulp fiction, Eric Stoltz that gave John Travolta the crazy drugs, her "sister" Alexis was George in the Wedding Singer.
Dokken's guitarist George Lynch formed a band in 2014 called KXM (with Dug Pinnick of King's X, and Ray Luzier of Korn). They recorded some amazing songs. You REALLY need to check them out (along with some of the early songs from King's X).
Donny Dokken was one of my favorite singers of all time back in the day. Sadly, he's not longer able to produce the range and tone that he had... but I'm thankful to him for pumping out so many gems over the years. If you want a treat, look up 'We are Stars'. It's the metal equivalent of 'We are the World' to support Hear N Aid, put together by Ronnie James Dio. Donny was one of the vocalists involved along with several other rock Gods and a dozen quitarists shared the solo. You guys will love it.
One of the aspects of the 80s that I loved was the Hair Metal that was in commercial horror films. This one, ''He's Back (The Man Behond the Mask)'' from Alice Cooper, ''Scream Until You Like It'' from WASP and ''Love Kills'' from Vinnie Vincent Invasion were other examples from the films of Freddy and Jason. What a decade! And what a voice! Don Dokken had one of the best ''Hair Metal'' voice out there. In that song, when he sings ''When i close my eyes, i realiiiiize...'' Incredible.
Happy Birthday!!! Don Dokken is the singer. The signature sound of the band though was George Lynch's guitar. He was one of the big 3 guitarists in the L.A. Rock scene during the late 70s, along with Randy Rhoads and Eddie Van Halen.
Alone Agan, just walk away, into the fire are some more greats from this band. I used lock myself in my room and practice hitting those high notes. Don Dokken and George Lynch are truly one of the great vocal guitar duos of all time. Happy birthday Jay!
If you're "of a certain age" and still remember VCR players 😉, this music video preceded and introduced the film Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, on the VHS release.
Hey Jay, in reference to George Lynch's guitar, that he'd used in this video, George had since donated that guitar to the Hard Rock Cafe (in Los Vegas, if I remember correctly), basically stating that the guitar was warped and that it sounded terrible Also, the full lineup of Dokken is as follows: George Lynch - Guitar Jeff Pilson - Bass Mick Brown - Drums Don Dokken - Lead Vocals
Aahhhh, one regret in my life is that I was standing about 5 feet behind Don Dokken at a concert many years ago and was too chicken to say hello and get an autograph. 🤦♀️ You can’t go wrong with Dokken! For vocals and guitar, please, if you’d like and are able, listen to What Love Can Be by Kingdom Come! The vocals are like butter. 🥰 Happy birthday Jay! 🎉
The hunter,in my dreams,breaking the chains you just got lucky,kiss of death,heaven sent, lightning stikes again,burning like a flame,tooth and nail are dokken songs I love!!
Guitarist George Lynch / Don Dokken played at Apache Casino down I35 a couple months ago. I got some killer video that night as I as right in front of him. He has been one of my favorite guitarist since the 80's
Yeah, this is essentially the title track for the soundtrack of this movie. BTW, the woman in the video is Patricia Arquette. She was also in the movie "Stigmata" and had a TV show called "Medium" where she portrayed a real life medium. This song also appears on the 4th Dokken studio album, "Back for the Attack." I think it's between this album and their third studio offering, "Under Lock and Key" as being their best albums. You commented on Don's voice. He was greatly influenced by Klaus Meine, the lead singer of the Scorpions. You can hear it in his somewhat nasaly tone. This is a band that should have been bigger than they were. But they had some internal problems they never seemed to be able to move past. Killer band with killer songs.
Heaven sent, Unchain the Night, Breaking the Chains, Into the Fire, The Hunter, You just got Lucky, Burning like a Flame, In my Dreams. All bangers by Dokken
Happy Birthday, J! Dokken was 1 of the Biggest hair bands of the mid 80s and early 90s. Don Dokken now sings in a lower register, he can't hit those high notes anymore. George Lynch is still 1 of The Baddest Guitarist on the Planet!🤘🏽
Georges' guitar is named Mr. Scary. George is a Bad Ass Guitarist. I remember this video came out it came out around the same time that Nighymare on Elm Street came out. Epic times in the 80's
This song was on MTV's "Dial MTV" and hit the top 10 most requested every day for months in early 1987. This was during the time when Living On A Prayer was on that same top 10, along with Madonna "Open Your Heart To Me", Stryper "Free". Genesis "Land Of Confusion". Beastie Boys "Fight For Your Right To Party", Europe "The Final Countdown".
There’s actually another Dokken song that the female lead listens to in the same movie called “Into the Fire”. If you want a much heavier, more metallic side of Dokken, you would love that song! I know I do but I’m biased because this is easily my favorite heavy metal band!
Happy Birthday bro. I got into Dokken through this movie n now they r favs. "Alone Again" n "Walk Away" have become favs. Freddy n the Nightmare franchise is my fav. This is from part 3 when Freddy was really blowing up as a pop culture icon n was everywhere. Part 4 is actually referred 2 as MTV Freddy bcuz of how 80s pop it was. Y'all have 2 finish them just for the experience. These movies were huge in the 80s
The guitar is Mr Scary. Check In My Dreams,Burnin Like A Flame, Lost Behind the Wall, Heaven Sent,Unchain the Night, It's Not Love, The Hunter, Kiss of Death I could keep going. Very underrated band!
The horror king of Hollywood, Wes Craven reinvented the horror genre when he wrote and directed the original "A Nightmare On Elm Street," which spawned 6 sequels. He conceived and co-wrote the story and screenplay for "A Nightmare On Elm Street 3." He wrote and directed "Wes Craven's New Nightmare," which presented a story that blurred the line between film and reality. He also directed the first four "Scream" movies. RIP
Lost behind the wall, Prisoner, In My Dreams, Unchain the night, Tooth and nail, Heaven Sent, Night by night, Burning like a flame, Kiss of death. just to name a few by Dokken
Ahh yes, Rokken with Dokken! Fun fact about the guitar in this video. I saw George Lynch live in his band Lynch Mob(yall need to check them out!) And he used this guitar as well as his a couple of his other signature guitars..After the show me and a buddy of mine snuck over to the side of the stage where his roadie was putting away his equipment, and we got to see this guitar and also his original trademark tiger stripe guitar up close.Also met George in the meet and greet and got an autograph and photo! such a cool down to earth guy.. I also heard Don Dokken is pretty cool too.. also Mick and Jeff..
Oh you totally ain't old Jay. Happy birthday. And what a great song to do on your birthday too I love dream warriors! This happens to be my favorite song by Dokken
Don Dokken is the singer for the band. George Lynch and his guitar, Mr. Scary, (yes, his guitar has a name), bassist Jeff Pilson, and Mick Brown round out the band. Also, check out "Burning Like a Flame". Banger!
I loved movie soundtracks from the 80's. They used clips from the movie along with the bands to make incredible videos. The movie - A Nightmare on Elm Street - was scary as hell back then.
ROB SQUAD, once again you guys are in my 80s hair band wheelhouse!! In 1985 or 86 I got the pleasure of attending a Monsters of Rock concert down in Miami Florida!! The lineup was Metallica, Dokken, the Scorpions, Van Halen, and Kingdom Come, who I don't think you guys have reacted to yet!! How's THAT for a lineup!!!???? Dokken had to either pause their set or cut it short because a HUGE thunderstorm rolled in when they were on stage!!😮😮
The guitar is called Mr. Scary. You can find them online if you want to add it to the collection. The guitarist is George Lynch. Look him up and find several cool guitars.
Dokken's "Dream Warriors" is a heavy metal anthem from the iconic horror film "A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors." The song's commercial success is tied to its use in the movie, which helped popularize it as a Halloween staple. The music video, featuring the band battling Freddy Krueger, is a nostalgic trip back to the '80s, with top-notch production value and heavy metal magic. It's a must-watch for horror fans and a testament to the song's enduring popularity.
Don dokken. Is the singer. Song is from nightmare on elm st : Dream warriors. I987 it came out. They where a huge band on the sunset strip in the early 80s
I grew up watching a lot of these eighties bands on MTV so this is a callback to my childhood when you react to these guys. Two I would suggest for some point in the future for you to go back to. One: Tesla-Modern Day Cowboy. It is one of the most well crafted and put together rock songs ever composed in my opinion. 2nd: Night Ranger. As far as I can recall "Sister Christian" is the only song of there's you've done and they have a whole catalogue of great music. Hope you had a great b-day Jay, hope you guys and your fam are living well, keep making us smile. Peace.
Congratulations to Jordan!! And also congratulations to the channel. I love the new series with the creators. It looks like you enjoyed recording them. All your time and efforts are worth it!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAY!🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂I’m honored to be one of your very first “50” subscribers. As soon as I saw the look on your face, the day you watched “ ACDC-THUNDERSTRUCK” for very first time. And very first reaction. I hit subscribe!! Because that’s EXACTLY how I felt in 1980 when I was 9 and heard them for very first time. Fell in love with ANGUS YOUNG same day!!
Happy Birthday!!! I watch hall daily and I really enjoyed the artists joining you. There are some kickass Dokken ones in “It’s NOt Love” and “Just Got Lucky”
Dokken is awesome. George is an amazing guitarist and though they had internal friction in the band, it was what helped to make some of the best songs. This is the theme song for A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, which is one of the best in the franchise. Don Dokken - vocals George Lynch - guitar Jeff Pilson - bass Mick Brown - drums
“Kiss of death”, “Tooth n Nail”, “lightning strikes again”, “into the fire” are all great songs you should check out from them. Oh and “Paris is burning” (live version) 😂
This is from "A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 3: The Dream Warriors". It's one of the best in the franchise.
Part One three and 4 in that order.
@@Janaesp12 I concur. I'll also add New Nightmare in there as well.
We saw it in the theater 🤘
@@Janaesp12 Sounds about right.
@@lucifer73 I saw it with my mom! We both liked it!
In My Dreams is another good one of theirs.
In My Dreams - Guitar solo of the year
Yes!! React to In My Dreams Please
Put the"two"together.?in my dreams, and "dream warriors.
That is a very young Patricia Arquette who starred in this movie and video....
No she is secondary Nancy, which is her real name, is Heather is the main character.
@dreamwarriorss4731 no it is Patricia arquette as stated. Heather langenkemp did star in this movie too if you watch it
One underrated actress.
@@JaneWalters-ni7se absolutely. Loved her in stigmata too
@@dreamwarriorss4731 Secondary? Patricia was the final girl in Nightmare 3.
Guitar player George Lynch was a top 3 guitarist of that era. He was a killer into the mid 90s.
Absolutely! And another weird note to that: while they were recording that album, Lynch decided to take classes at GIT in Hollywood. I imagine having him as a classmate must have freaked out some of the kids taking classes at MI at that time.
Saw him a few weeks ago with Lynch Mob still amazing
Still incredible. Dude is a machine
He was one of my favorite guitar players to go see. Now crazy as it may sound, I really enjoy watching 14 yr old Taj Farrant. This kid is a phenom.
“Into the 90’s”?? He’s still incredible
This is from A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors which is a fan favorite by a lot of people. This song was written for the movie and was originally released as a single on February 10th, 1987. It was also released on Dokken's fourth album Back for the Attack which came out on November 2nd, 1987.
Dokken has a healthy catalog of songs. You can bang your head, rock your head, you can Bob your head, their are no weaklings in their music.
George Lynch,the master,nuff,said ..
Don Dokken-singer
George Lynch-guitar
Jeff Pilson-bass
Mick Brown-drums
The Skull N Bones guitar is a signature piece of George’s.
It’s first appearance was in the video for “It’s Not Love”…
Do that tune next.
That guitar is also in the video for the song, "Burning like a Flame", and the guitar actually comes alive, great song also!
Don Dokken has an awesome alliterative name. It sounds more like a superhero's real name.
"Heaven Sent" from their "Beast from the East" album. Best live version.
Totally Agree! The guitar solo in that version is absolutely wicked!
I was thinking the same thing but also taking it a little further. Any song you want to hear or react to, check if it's on Beast from the East and play that version!
Lead singer, Don Dokken, was operatically trained. That's why he can hit those notes with such ease. Although, he said it took many takes in the studio for him to reach that final note at the end of the video.
Where did you hear he was operatically trained?
He wasn't. And it's a shame, he's still touring but he can't really sing anymore. He's a chain smoker still.
That happened with Geoff Tate from Queensryche. Just with getting older and his voice changing he has not been able to hit the same notes on songs from The Order or Operation Mindcrime.
I think Rob Halford is one of the few metal vocalists who can still hit some of those notes like back in the good old days.
@@inrockwetrust73 As we get older our diaphragms loosen up, and for singers like Tate with an "operatic" style, it's very noticeable when that starts to happen. It's happening with me, I used to have a huge range, and an especially high falsetto. Falsetto is gone completely and my natural range is about 2/3rds of what it used to be.
Happy birthday and This was a song made for A Nightmare on Elm Street 3-Dream Warriors. Such a classic track 🤘🏻
"Burning like a flame" is a good one too. Also features more of that skull guitar
I forgot about that one, very good one
Burning like a flame is one of the songs that I am playing at my wedding. It was our "song" back in the day in high school.
Heaven Sent is a great Dokken power ballad with an amazing guitar solo.
One of their heaviest songs, with a great, heavy riff! Love it!
It’s not love, into the fire, just got lucky, heaven sent, breaking the chains, and unchain the night are all great Dokken songs.
Heaven sent has the best guitar solo.
They've done It's Not Love. Go check it out.
I think that they'd already reacted to "It's Not Love"
Back for the Attack was a KILLER album.
My all time fav album. Not a bad track on it.
There are currently 9 Freddy films.
A Nightmare On Elm Street (1984).
A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985).
A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987).
A Nightmare On Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988).
A Nightmare On Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989).
Freddy's Dead The Final Nightmare (1991).
Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994).
Freddy Vs. Jason (2003).
All the above with Robert Englund as Freddy, and there was a T.V. anthology series in the late 1980's with Robert Englund called Freddy's Nightmares. Then they made a remake in 2010.
A Nightmare On Elm Street (2010).
Don't Close Your Eyes, When Heaven Comes Down, Lightning Strikes Again, Lost Behind the Wall, It's Almost Over, Empire to name a few! The band has many great albums to this day still one of my favorite bands.

..... ????
Gotta do Alone Again from Dokken. Thanks for reacting. Happy Birthday!!
I saw their video and rob squad did react to Alone again.
They already did, Walk Away is another fantastic (and very ignored) ballad that they should react to instead!
Heaven sent, breaking the chains
Or even a bit later when reb beach was in the band. Haunted lullaby is a very good song.
Don Dokken lead singer, George Lynch lead guitar, other great songs by Dokken, Turn on the Action, Heaven-sent, Tooth and nail, Just got lucky, The Hunter, Jaded Heart, so many more
That is literally the theme song for the third NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET film (the sequels are incredible). The lead singer is DON DOKKEN (his name is the band name) and George Lynch on lead guitar.
Now you MUST check out the song "Love Kills" by VINNIE VINCENT INVASION ... from NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4. I know you like SLAUGHTER, Mark Slaughter may or may not make an appearance on that track 😁
Could be my fave hair-metal song of all time.
This was the theme song for the third "A Nightmare on Elm Street" movie, featuring the supernatural serial killer Freddy Krueger and the teenage "dream warriors" who faced him down. You can see scenes from the movie interspersed throughout the music video.

I just came here to say that... skip Part 2. LOL
Happy Birthday Jay, The Beatles’ “Birthday” was the song to play today
And it would have probably been instantly taken down. The Beatles are notorious YT channel strikers. It's such a short song it wouldn't be worth the time to film, edit, and then go through the head ache of trying to get it up on the channel.
Nightmare on Elm Street 3, is where this song is song
Track. Don Dokken is the singer
Saw an interview with Lynch where he said he doesn’t remember making this video, was REALLY strung out and on coke when making it. And boy does he look like it.
He’s still one of my favs of the era, he managed to capture THAT 80’s guitar tone, I chased that tone for a long time.
he also said he could barely break through that wall for the part where his solo starts. But damn, could he ever play!
The album this comes from is epic front to back. "Heaven Sent" is probably my favorite Dokken song. Also, gotta get back to Femme Fatale sometime and do "Waiting for the Big One". :)
Another song from a slasher movie is Alice cooper’s “he’s back (the man behind the mask)” from Friday the 13th part VI
and both songs have a permanent place on my halloween mix 😄
When the movie went to video, (back when we had video rental stores) this music video was added to the end. And that is how I discovered Dokken. 🤣
The actress in the video is Patricia Arquette. I liked her in Medium. Ohh there is a making of where Don and Jeff and telling Robert (Freddy) to go to the liquor store in full on Freddy makeup. LOL

"Rockin with Dokken!! What more do you want." -Stephen Pearcy That greatest band to ever walk the planet.
Saw these guys so many times live, had amazing shows even without the stage props they’d outperform groups they’d open for

Dokken was one of the greatest bands in the 80's, and their music is still relevant today. This is one of their best songs, and it came off the best Nightmare on Elm Street movies Dream Warriors.

I saw Dokken in concert back in 1990. They opened up for Aerosmith. AWESOME CONCERT!!!!!!
Without Warning / Tooth and Nail must be heard together as well as Turm On the Action
Huge nightmare on Elm Street fan and when part 3 came out and this song was on MTV it was awesome. Great song! And happy birthday!
You gotta do Tooth and Nail with the seamless into called "Without Warning" it's meant to be the intro for "Tooth and Nail". Jay you are gonna rock fiercely to this!!!!!
It kicks off their first album in a big way.

The grin on Mick's face when he's drumming inside the boiler cracks me up every time. Dokken fan since the mid 80s
Don dokken was one of my fave singers back then. I loved all of their songs, they have so many good ones.
Yes! More Rokkin with Dokken! Happy Birthday Jay!
Saw DOKKEN live less than a year ago. Lead singer has long gray hair, but he can still hit those high notes.
Don Dokken is lead, George Lynch Guitar, Wild Mick Brown on Drums, Jeff Pilson on Bass
One of the aspects of the 80s that I loved was the Hair Metal that was in commercial horror films. This one, ''He's Back (The Man Behond the Mask)'' from Alice Cooper, ''Scream Until You Like It'' from WASP and ''Love Kills'' from Vinnie Vincent Invasion were other examples from the films of Freddy and Jason. What a decade!
And what a voice! Don Dokken had one of the best ''Hair Metal'' voice out there. In that song, when he sings ''When i close my eyes, i realiiiiize...''
Incredible.
4:25 singer’s name is Don Dokken. It’s sorta like how with Van Halen the name of the band is also the name of one of the band members.
Guitar player is George Lynch he has his own band called Lynch Mob you should try checking them out.
Happy Birthday!!! Don Dokken is the singer. The signature sound of the band though was George Lynch's guitar. He was one of the big 3 guitarists in the L.A. Rock scene during the late 70s, along with Randy Rhoads and Eddie Van Halen.
Alone Agan, just walk away, into the fire are some more greats from this band. I used lock myself in my room and practice hitting those high notes. Don Dokken and George Lynch are truly one of the great vocal guitar duos of all time. Happy birthday Jay!
If you're "of a certain age" and still remember VCR players 😉, this music video preceded and introduced the film Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, on the VHS release.
In My Dreams and Alone Again need to be added soon✌️❤️ hair metal... Happy birthday, J!
The ending of this music video always cracks me up lol happy bday jay
Hey Jay, in reference to George Lynch's guitar, that he'd used in this video, George had since donated that guitar to the Hard Rock Cafe (in Los Vegas, if I remember correctly), basically stating that the guitar was warped and that it sounded terrible
Also, the full lineup of Dokken is as follows:
George Lynch - Guitar
Jeff Pilson - Bass
Mick Brown - Drums
Don Dokken - Lead Vocals
They also had another video breaking the chains and alone again check those two videos out. Don Dokken has some amazing vocals
Loved Dokken back in the day. Seen them live 9 times in the 80's and a few more later.
Aahhhh, one regret in my life is that I was standing about 5 feet behind Don Dokken at a concert many years ago and was too chicken to say hello and get an autograph. 🤦♀️ You can’t go wrong with Dokken!
For vocals and guitar, please, if you’d like and are able, listen to What Love Can Be by Kingdom Come! The vocals are like butter. 🥰 Happy birthday Jay! 🎉
The hunter,in my dreams,breaking the chains you just got lucky,kiss of death,heaven sent, lightning stikes again,burning like a flame,tooth and nail are dokken songs I love!!
Guitarist George Lynch / Don Dokken played at Apache Casino down I35 a couple months ago. I got some killer video that night as I as right in front of him. He has been one of my favorite guitarist since the 80's
Yes Friends!
Thanks for getting back to my favourite Metal Band! ❤A Happy Birthday Jay❤
Yeah, this is essentially the title track for the soundtrack of this movie. BTW, the woman in the video is Patricia Arquette. She was also in the movie "Stigmata" and had a TV show called "Medium" where she portrayed a real life medium. This song also appears on the 4th Dokken studio album, "Back for the Attack." I think it's between this album and their third studio offering, "Under Lock and Key" as being their best albums. You commented on Don's voice. He was greatly influenced by Klaus Meine, the lead singer of the Scorpions. You can hear it in his somewhat nasaly tone. This is a band that should have been bigger than they were. But they had some internal problems they never seemed to be able to move past. Killer band with killer songs.
Very polished hair band of the 80's. Can't beat the high pitched singing, great era.
Heaven sent, Unchain the Night, Breaking the Chains, Into the Fire, The Hunter, You just got Lucky, Burning like a Flame, In my Dreams. All bangers by Dokken
One of the songs that tripped me down the 80s glam/hair metal rabbit hole way back when. Still holds up, what a banger
Happy Birthday, J! Dokken was 1 of the Biggest hair bands of the mid 80s and early 90s. Don Dokken now sings in a lower register, he can't hit those high notes anymore. George Lynch is still 1 of The Baddest Guitarist on the Planet!🤘🏽
Georges' guitar is named Mr. Scary. George is a Bad Ass Guitarist. I remember this video came out it came out around the same time that Nighymare on Elm Street came out. Epic times in the 80's
This song was on MTV's "Dial MTV" and hit the top 10 most requested every day for months in early 1987. This was during the time when Living On A Prayer was on that same top 10, along with Madonna "Open Your Heart To Me", Stryper "Free". Genesis "Land Of Confusion". Beastie Boys "Fight For Your Right To Party", Europe "The Final Countdown".
There’s actually another Dokken song that the female lead listens to in the same movie called “Into the Fire”. If you want a much heavier, more metallic side of Dokken, you would love that song! I know I do but I’m biased because this is easily my favorite heavy metal band!
There is a total of 9 Nightmare on Elm street films for you to watch this song is from (Nightmare on Elm Street 3: The Dream Warriors)
Happy Birthday bro. I got into Dokken through this movie n now they r favs. "Alone Again" n "Walk Away" have become favs. Freddy n the Nightmare franchise is my fav. This is from part 3 when Freddy was really blowing up as a pop culture icon n was everywhere. Part 4 is actually referred 2 as MTV Freddy bcuz of how 80s pop it was. Y'all have 2 finish them just for the experience. These movies were huge in the 80s
The guitar is Mr Scary. Check In My Dreams,Burnin Like A Flame, Lost Behind the Wall, Heaven Sent,Unchain the Night, It's Not Love, The Hunter, Kiss of Death I could keep going. Very underrated band!
George Lynch (lead guitarist) was probably one of the few underrated guitar players of that era. for those who didn't know of him of course
The horror king of Hollywood, Wes Craven reinvented the horror genre when he wrote and directed the original "A Nightmare On Elm Street," which spawned 6 sequels. He conceived and co-wrote the story and screenplay for "A Nightmare On Elm Street 3." He wrote and directed "Wes Craven's New Nightmare," which presented a story that blurred the line between film and reality. He also directed the first four "Scream" movies. RIP
7:13 that’s one of the guitarist George Lynch’s customized guitars. If memory serves, George named that guitar “Mom”. (No, really!)
Lost behind the wall, Prisoner, In My Dreams, Unchain the night, Tooth and nail, Heaven Sent, Night by night, Burning like a flame, Kiss of death. just to name a few by Dokken
Omg I just transported back in time 😮❤
1... 2... Freddy's comin for you...
Ahh yes, Rokken with Dokken!
Fun fact about the guitar in this video.
I saw George Lynch live in his band Lynch Mob(yall need to check them out!) And he used this guitar as well as his a couple of his other signature guitars..After the show me and a buddy of mine snuck over to the side of the stage where his roadie was putting away his equipment, and we got to see this guitar and also his original trademark tiger stripe guitar up close.Also met George in the meet and greet and got an autograph and photo! such a cool down to earth guy.. I also heard Don Dokken is pretty cool too.. also Mick and Jeff..
Had mine the other day, I'm 53 an still rock n with Dokken.
Oh you totally ain't old Jay. Happy birthday. And what a great song to do on your birthday too I love dream warriors! This happens to be my favorite song by Dokken
Don Dokken is the singer for the band. George Lynch and his guitar, Mr. Scary, (yes, his guitar has a name), bassist Jeff Pilson, and Mick Brown round out the band. Also, check out "Burning Like a Flame". Banger!
I loved movie soundtracks from the 80's. They used clips from the movie along with the bands to make incredible videos. The movie - A Nightmare on Elm Street - was scary as hell back then.
ROB SQUAD, once again you guys are in my 80s hair band wheelhouse!!
In 1985 or 86 I got the pleasure of attending a Monsters of Rock concert down in Miami Florida!! The lineup was Metallica, Dokken, the Scorpions, Van Halen, and Kingdom Come, who I don't think you guys have reacted to yet!! How's THAT for a lineup!!!????
Dokken had to either pause their set or cut it short because a HUGE thunderstorm rolled in when they were on stage!!😮😮
The guitar is called Mr. Scary. You can find them online if you want to add it to the collection. The guitarist is George Lynch. Look him up and find several cool guitars.
It seems the 80s had a lot of fun videos that actually were short movies of sorts. I loved Freddie. Don Dokken had a great voice.
Yeah. They did that 'big rock band' thing quite well!
Alone again is a killer power ballad
Lol anything from the B side of "Under Lock and Key" just plain rocks, Dokken was awesome live back in the day!
Happy Birthday! Dokken rocks!
Dokken's "Dream Warriors" is a heavy metal anthem from the iconic horror film "A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors." The song's commercial success is tied to its use in the movie, which helped popularize it as a Halloween staple. The music video, featuring the band battling Freddy Krueger, is a nostalgic trip back to the '80s, with top-notch production value and heavy metal magic. It's a must-watch for horror fans and a testament to the song's enduring popularity.
This is the first time that a mainstream vhs release included a music video. Dokken wrote Dream Warriors specifically for the movie.
Rock'n with Dokken!!! There are so many songs that you need to listen to. My favorites are Alone Again, The Hunter and Jaded Heart. 🤟
Happy Birthday Jay! 🎂 A couple of other Dokken songs to check out are: "In My Dreams" and "Into The Fire"!
Don dokken. Is the singer. Song is from nightmare on elm st : Dream warriors. I987 it came out. They where a huge band on the sunset strip in the early 80s
According to George Lynch, Robert Englund was giving band members "bumps" of marching powder off of the Freddy glove.
I grew up watching a lot of these eighties bands on MTV so this is a callback to my childhood when you react to these guys. Two I would suggest for some point in the future for you to go back to. One: Tesla-Modern Day Cowboy. It is one of the most well crafted and put together rock songs ever composed in my opinion. 2nd: Night Ranger. As far as I can recall "Sister Christian" is the only song of there's you've done and they have a whole catalogue of great music. Hope you had a great b-day Jay, hope you guys and your fam are living well, keep making us smile. Peace.
Congratulations to Jordan!! And also congratulations to the channel. I love the new series with the creators. It looks like you enjoyed recording them. All your time and efforts are worth it!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAY!🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂I’m honored to be one of your very first “50” subscribers. As soon as I saw the look on your face, the day you watched “ ACDC-THUNDERSTRUCK” for very first time. And very first reaction. I hit subscribe!! Because that’s EXACTLY how I felt in 1980 when I was 9 and heard them for very first time. Fell in love with ANGUS YOUNG same day!!
Happy Birthday!!! I watch hall daily and I really enjoyed the artists joining you. There are some kickass Dokken ones in “It’s NOt Love” and “Just Got Lucky”
Dokken is awesome. George is an amazing guitarist and though they had internal friction in the band, it was what helped to make some of the best songs. This is the theme song for A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, which is one of the best in the franchise.
Don Dokken - vocals
George Lynch - guitar
Jeff Pilson - bass
Mick Brown - drums
“Kiss of death”, “Tooth n Nail”, “lightning strikes again”, “into the fire” are all great songs you should check out from them. Oh and “Paris is burning” (live version) 😂
