🎵 Ugly Kid Joe - Everything About You REACTION

[@brianmercure9558]

Hell, yeah.

[@richardcranium5048]

True, also though, I'd argue it's hard to go wrong with Ugly Kid Joe, they have a lot of good songs

[@socialmediadelinquent5781]

We’re used to seeing a smile on Lex’s face throughout a video but this is one of those rare occasions that Brad smiled during the entire song lol

[@anomystic]

It does feel that way. I’d watch lex reacts over Brad reacts

[@cesarnarro6013]

That's probably because she really wasn't that crazy about it.

[@OMeara85]

Brad didn't have to think too hard this time

[@anomystic]

@@cesarnarro6013 right. The poor girl side glances more often. As in how is he feeling right now. Says too much

[@christophercrowder872]

This whole album is great. I highly recommend "Busy Bee", "Goddamned Devil", "Panhandlin' Prince", and "So Damned Cool".

[@nethrelm]

Agreed, great album all the way through.

[@jeremyredd]

One of the most underrated bands of the 90s. Awesome musicians.

[@gvehar]

There was a hair metal band called Pretty Boy Floyd, so they named themselves Ugly Kid Joe. These guys were a metal band, but not thrash. Good sense of humor. I remember them fitting in well on MTV in the early 90s at the height of alternative and grunge. Not many new metal bands flourished at that time. Their video was fun.

[@weedthepeople2795]

Yep..early ninties.....broke, living in a hotel in rural Texas, smoking weed and listening to this and other cds...it defined my late teen years....my roommate had a girlfriend that still lived with her dad (were all 18-19) and it was about a 15 minute walk there, sometimes listening to this CD on my CD Walkman. Wed go in the morning and wait in the alley behind their house, and wait to see her dads car pull away, then wed go in the house.....hed go bang his girlfriend in her bedroom, and Id raid the kitchen and watch cable....good times

[@kaansoler1431]

So to get some perspective they should do a reaction to Pretty Boy Floyd "Electric Boys with Electric Toyz". But you gotta do the official mucis video. It's a visual thing. Lol

[@BabyVapor]

They did there first show with Pretty Boy Floyd and didn't have a name yet. They were asked when they got to the venue what their name was to put on the Marque, they saw PBF and said we're Ugly Kid Joe.

[@iaincowell9747]

@@BabyVapor Also heard that Pretty Boy Floyd didn't actually perform that night, something happend and they had to cancel at the last minute

[@BabyVapor]

@@iaincowell9747 That's very possible or they could have been the replacement band?

[@markcatanzaro9699]

Ah, finally- my favorite love song!

[@nethrelm]

I actually love this album (America's Least Wanted). Very underrated IMO. The main reason they didn't get bigger than they did was that they came out in the early 90s when grunge was starting to take over, but they still had a sort of hair metal sound and that just wasn't where music was at anymore. But yeah, some really good stuff on that album. It's one I usually listen to all the way through. You should check out their cover of "Cats in the Cradle". It's really good.

[@Blu9_Nin9]

They still had a pretty good following and were played on MTV a lot. They were in the same grouping as Faith No More at the time, not really hair metal and not really grunge. Just angsty rock.

[@mikechmielewski386]

@@Blu9_Nin9 Kinda a silly Guns n' Roses-lite.

[@fryke]

Yeah, no... They were all over MTV and everyone loved their fun take on the hairband rock style - but they basically simply couldn't follow it up and everyone forgot about them in the process. I mean: They weren't like comedy geniuses or anything, and I'm guessing it was just fun while it lasted. To us and to them.

[@dawnpatrol700]

Listen to their 96 CD Motel California, they totally updated their sound. Unfortunately it was too late. People thought of them as one of those hair bands that just snuck in at the beginning of grunge and that was it for them. I love that Motel cause it sounds like 96.

[@PeteStradlin]

@@Blu9_Nin9 Faith No More was much more than "just angsty rock" lol

[@jamesanthony8438]

Can't hear this song without thinking of Jackyl's "The Lumberjack." They both came out in the early 90's and were a lot of fun. AC/DC had a bagpipe in their "It's A Long Way To The Top" song, but it ain't got nothin' on the solo from "The Lumberjack" =)

[@ketorecipiesandhealthystuf5539]

Saw them back in the day at a small club in San Antonio. Talked to the singer for a bit when he was playing pool. Pretty cool

[@johnnybernal6452]

The singer of this band Whitfield Crane, is one of the most amazing singers. Up there with Mike Patton of Faith No More. Whitfield Crane has even filled in on vocals for Metallica's singer James Hetfield a few times in the past, for whatever reasons.

Saw UKJ in 1995, when they opened for Def Leppard. They were AWESOME(So was Def Leppard of course). If you like some comedy interjected into your songs. Then you gotta listen to "Neighbor". GREAT reaction as always. Keep it up guys! \m/

Sooo glad someone finally reacting to them. They are so good. Came through my town in the early 90's. One of the best shows I have ever seen. As someone mentioned "So Damn Cool" should be next.

[@AKJACKAL99709]

I played this song in my cover band. Our singer that also plays guitar could not do the rap part while playing guitar, so I did the rap verse while playing the drums. The audience would look around at first trying to see who was rapping, and once they realized it was the drummer, they lit up. LOL

[@sumonjamal1653]

Ugly Kid Joe had potential to be huge in the 90's... they had a punk rock attitude... the playing skills and a great vocalist Whitfield Crane. Guitarist Dave Fortman went on to produce a number of major bands like Evanescence, Slipknot, Superjoint Ritual, etc... But UKJ slipped into obscurity, despite 3 great albums - "America's least wanted" (1992), 'Menace to sobriety' (1995) and 'Motel California' (1997) They reunited for another full album in 2015 - 'Uglier than they used ta be'. UKJ songs - "Milkman's son" ... 'Neighbor' ... 'Cats in the cradle' (Harry Chapin cover) ... 'My old man' ... "Tomorrow's world" ... "Don't go"... 🤘🤘🔥🔥

[@MEspinals2007]

Love this band...I remember them back in the day when they was pushing their demo on Hollywood. Such a fun band to watch and the music and lyrics have always been top notch. Whitefield Crane. What smart and intellectual person. The band has had a few changes with members but still kept that original vibe. One of my all time fav bands till this day!!!

[@DarthMohammedRules]

They came out with a new album in the past few years, and it totally kicks ass!! Their first single, Under the Bottom, is AMAZING and has some really heavy Black Sabbath vibes. Bad Seed is another really great song off that album as well.

To me this band is a huge rabbit hole to hop into. As Ugly As They Wanna Be, And America's Least Wanted, are in constant rotation in my Playlist!

I think you’d have a great time with their songs “Madman” and “Neighbor” if you want to hear more of them! And the weird talking at the beginning makes more sense with the video, it was done by a character that was popular on SNL at the time.

That Alabama moment, tho

[@jeffreekoch9298]

I remember them. Funny video and song. They and other hair rock bands kind of faded away during the early - mid '90s. When alt rock, grunge, punk, rap were blowing up in the mainstream, more popular. Most of us at my high school couldn't get into hair bands. They were more like Guns and Roses though. Edgier than most hair rock bands those times. One of the few hair bands we liked.

[@haps4273]

Great band at the end of the hard rock era of the 80's/ early 90's. They have lots of terrific songs. My favourites besides this one are Busy Bee, their cover of Harry Chapin's Cats In The Cradle and Cloudy Skies which was from later in the 90's. I remember circa 1991, our local radio station had a Thursday night phone in request where people said their requests on air and this song was on every week. The band name was in response to a glam band named Pretty Boy Floyd who had some good tunes too.

[@Boatzilla2]

This song is dedicated to 80s hair bands. They went under a different name when they opened for Pretty Boy Floyd, they hated it so bad that they changed their name to Ugly Kid Joe!!! True story.

[@dawnpatrol700]

I'm divided on this band. They came out in 91, when hair metal was on the way out, but they kept changing and sounding more up to date with each album. They don't get enough credit for their Korn / Rage sound on Motel California. Most people didn't hear the later stuff and thought of them as hair metal. They always had modern elements to their sound, and worked hard to shed that hair metal image. I highly recommend Motel California, I love their more aggressive sound
