[@erickgregoryful]

completely under rated. 80's man, what a great time to be a teen ager.

[@StarreLabell]

Yes it was a great era, sure do miss it. The 90's were great, too.

[@lunaticfringe8559]

It was great being a teenager back then. 👍👍

[@weeklyfascination]

No internet, MTV was showing music videos, not to mention the awesome guitar and sax solos.

[@ROOKTABULA]

You know the sign of a good fucking solo? When you hear it 30 years later and it's IMMEDIATELY in your head as stone cold as if no time at all had passed.

[@barbaraschain9260]

And Bob Dylan has him 8n his band! Doesn't get much bigger. He's AWESOME..the full package🖐😀🇦🇺🐨

[@Joe-d1y]

I don't play guitar, but I can air fan the lead solo and rhythm riffs all day long to this song without even thinking about it. I'm 56 now and know this song just as well today as I did in 1989. Tnt-Seven seas, Joe Satriani-ice 9, etc,etc,

[@lunaticfringe8559]

30 years and still listening.

[@Laurielism]

Me too. Love this album.

[@63rebell]

Charlie is and will always be Top Notch in every way as a musician and has always been underrated!

[@timmaulden3640]

Rocking this during covid-19. This album is exceptional.

[@carlduremdes3565]

Dude had it all -- the looks the voice and that immeasurable X factor. Long live Charlie Sexton!!!

[@mgcuniverse9037]

Charlie Sexton blended Rock and Roll and new wave perfectly with the integrity of blues

[@preciousbash]

Well expressed!!! Indeed he did!!! C.S. 4 ever!!!

[@pcarebear1]

Perfect way to describe him! I'm learning guitar and his style inspires me to keep at it :)

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

New Wave, where?

[@sharonm.t.2492]

​@sarcasticallyrearranged the song and his style from 1986, 1987, Beat's So Lonely, was kinda new wave.

[@johnnysparta438]

his second solo album was fuckin’ excellent...guy is super talented ...people in Austin, TX...know and love him....

[@jamed3189]

I love 80s charlie ... and bowie loved him too

[@TheArchangel68]

Word. I didn't really appreciate having grown up in the 80's until after I had to live through the 90's. LOL. Now I really appreciate a lot of the music, the movies, and the artists/personalities much more.

[@WithoutRemorse12]

TheArchangel68 Who's the girl in the video?

[@swangonzalez4797]

His last hyperdrive Rock N Roll song. Though he did some cool stuff on Cruel and Gentler, Wishing Tree and the Angels album, his hard driving pop rock records were his true trademark for most people as they remember his early work. This was his last hyper cool song.

Superb ! i agree he was and still is under rated

[@toarunyanko7494]

One of the most underrated songs.

[@WolfHeavyMetal]

Guitar slinger Charlie was RocknRoll personified. Supercool & Under rated.

[@TheValerioPaolini]

Simply GREAT!!! Style is never out of fashion. Keep Rocking Charlie!

[@maisielee5147]

Enjoyed his vocals.

[@pamelawood9289]

2021 Who’s With Me? His voice is Magical ✌️

[@sluggosloan]

Bryan Adams is singing back-up vocals on this song too.

[@WithoutRemorse12]

sluggosloan Who's the girl in the video?

[@TXMadeCustomGuitars]

Your music was the music of my teens and still is. I would love to build a guitar for you. It would be a pleasure to watch you perform with it. I was in Fort Worth front row for one of your concerts in 2007. I was blown away at your skill, both singing and playing. you've gotten even better over the years.

[@ResAffolterSoundproductions]

great song with fantastic guitars!

[@Nickachu_NJ]

This whole album is solid!! One of my all time favorites!

[@stmadech]

Agree great album

[@loulozada8118]

Nick, I'm assuming you heard his previous album? One of the best 80's albums.

[@tomcorluka5975]

Well its a mixed up Picture & a Shook up World!! 2021 Charlie tell me about it brother!!!

[@nealtheflash8033]

I first heard this song in the 3rd Episode of the 1st Season of Baywatch called "Second Wave" in 1989. It was never credited on the end credits and I was never able to find out the artist or song title until recently. I loved it then and still love it now.

[@dimitarivanov8125]

Me too *4 episode

[@ДимитърНаджиев]

Do you know where I can find all songs from seasons 1-2

[@rebeccasingleton4688]

LOVE YA CHARLIE! YOU ROCKED my life yes sir ya Sure did. original guitar God! such a beautiful man. all your music is just wonderful. I HAD A CRUSH IN YOU SO BAD WHEN I FIRST SAW YOU ON MTV. BUT I WAS MUCH OLDER THAN YOU. BUT I STILL CARRY THAT CRUSH ESPECIALLY SINCE YOUR OLDER NOW. I WILL ALWAYS ADMIRE AND APPRECIATE ALL YOUR WORK CHARLIE! NEVER STOP DARLIN! I NEED TO HEAR YA WAILING AWAY AND THE SOUND OF YOU GUITAR IS BRILLIANT. KEEP ON ROCKIN

[@sharonm.t.2492]

He was so young, yet so talented!

[@melaniefowler2791]

Charlie actually had depth? IE. Guitar & Lyrics...Double Threat...and in THIS Video? Super frigging 🔥...Now Charlie made triple Threat...❤

[@tvandena1]

Supercool underrated. Well said!

[@WithoutRemorse12]

Great song from a strongly produced album. Wish others songs were on the same qaulity level.

[@aldomania]

Cool voice

[@Guitarman092004]

Was habe ich diesen Song geliebt. Er passte 1990 wunderbar zur Situation Eddie/ Jimmy in Baywatch sowie meine zu einem gewissen Peter aus der Schule. Ich war damals 12 und hatte nie die Courage von Eddie zu Jimmy beim Peter. Respekt verschaffen. Und Charlies Don't look back passte so genial dazu.

[@jonhymarshall7035]

great guitarist palyer

[@トムコーディ]

お気に入りの曲です。

[@ROBERTVANJOVI]

buenisimo

[@SYNETHZoficial]

Love love love

[@shariblack4128]

I make it a point to look forward . . . to think forward . . . to be forward . . . anyone else on here feel the same? GK? Blowin this town is on my agenda . . .

[@Sibyllblues]

@WolfHeavyMetal totally underrated..powerful.

[@StarreLabell]

Where is Charlie Sexton these days? I remember this song playing on the radio back in 88 or 89 in Rockport, TX.

[@guidoesposito9252]

He plays lead Guitar for Bob Dylan

[@ludurigan]

Can't believe this is 2076 and I am still listening!

[@inlakesh555]

"And with a Rebel Yell she cried more, more, more"😉

[@whenthemorningstarssangtogxrxs]

What a beauty.

Super 👌

[@TuraSatana666]

great video--thanks for posting!

[@stephanegarnier7002]

the best musician

[@djaor]

Great song always played in Rockzone Radio Show of Portugal

[@tristanmatile9428]

Souvenirs.......

[@raymondpierotti8414]

Always liked Charlie's look at this period. Let me know where they got the inspiration for Edward Scissorhands

[@preciousbash]

oh yeah!!!

[@nikswanton2553]

Love this song- still awesome, and suits the economic situation in a way...bankers and kings can't "fix this thing", and I want to blow this town, or deadzone cuz the "problem is the future's gone"....feel like jumpin in my hot rod and taking off!! Charlie rocks!!

[@2ndhandgenius]

Close...it was a Bob, but it was Bob Clearmountain. The drums are the giveaway. Listen to Bryan Adams' "Reckless", "Into The Fire" or Simple Minds' "Once Upon A Time"; and you'll hear the similarities.

[@allansnappe]

With Bryan Adams on backing vocals !!!

[@rebelheart1968]

@SugarbushDetective - i think it might have been Bob Rock. Gave it that "thicker" sound.

[@mr.2cents.846]

I know this song from Baywatch. When Eddie go lt suspended. 3rd episode of season 1 I believe.

[@lordhardandres80s]

ushhhhhhhhhhh 100/100

If there ever was a real life Eddie Wilson it would be Charlie Sexton. Almost....

[@ragnarlothbrooke6117]

Billy idol feel

[@jokerfleckcast3196]

The little riff at the start is very similar to Rebel Yell

[@inspiralroses]

Emo before Emo was on every edge in town ...

[@APATCHKEN]

Chorus is a deep hoarse voice! Brｙan Adams is singing ??

[@Oldschool7166]

Bryan Adams harmony on the chorus

[@WithoutRemorse12]

Oldschool7166 Who's the girl in the video?

[@mhitson7483]

Maybe co-written as well?

[@mhitson7483]

Yep

[@deannadalton2789]

It all makes sense now, my obsession with Adrien Brody.

[@leslieh48307]

deanna dalton what about Matt Dillon?

[@freqenc]

Rent $800 month, to $8000 month. Welcome to Cali!

Austin boys always tell the truth?

[@tatsubay4440]

やっぱカッケーな… 今のクソアイドルとは比較にならん

[@garageaixqui43]

Not enough Brian Adams...

[@aliaperez7809]

He's the 80s Shawn Cassidy

[@susiegreer6890]

No way! Shaun Cassidy never had half the talent, voice or sexiness of Charlie Sexton

[@aliaperez7809]

@@susiegreer6890 I like both. Im a groupie and I can't resist a good looking singer!

[@ROOKTABULA]

Great song but that "dead zone" phrase was just lazy writing.
