Def Leppard-Gods Of War

[@RiffRock51]

Def Leppard's most underrated song.

[@JoiseyRepresent]

Yeah, it was released on their most successful albums (in terms of sales) but this always felt like a hidden gem to me.

[@lex3572]

SleightOfHand they finally played it live again when i saw them again in 2013 in MA and i was like the only one it seemed who remembered the lyrics haha ive always loved this song and it def doesnt get the popularity i think it should, great song, it was funny a few of the adults around me looked at me shocked this young girl is singing along to this song they dont even know hahaha im only 23 but ive been a fan of def leppard for a long time, since i was like 9-10 and i was obsessed haha, it kills me i was not alive during the 80's

[@roadhse]

It's never underrated in true rockers minds!

[@kodiak1966]

Def Leppard's most underrated song of all time is 'White Lightening" in my opinion.

[@CarolMarineMom]

I totally Agree🎸🎵🇬🇧

[@djsmom2012]

I'm so shocked that this song isn't at the one million because it's one of their best songs ever of the 80s

[@Missprada_]

Steve Clark. A criminally underrated guitar player. RIP

[@CarolMarineMom]

Absofrikinlutely 💙🎵🎸🇬🇧

[@petMonster28]

Agreed! If we had more quality recordings and footage of him playing demos and live solos (like all the other greats seem to have by the boatloads), I think more people would realize what we had in Steve. But unfortunately it seems he was also criminally private when it came to "behind the scenes" kind of stuff.

[@rockerokiss]

Not at all underrated, he has been really recognized as one of the nicest guitarrist of that time, it's very notice how Def Leppard came down since he died... he was the brain of the band

[@davidvironet6344]

@@petMonster28 phil does a series on steve. Says they used to play and figure it out. They have a shit ton of steve playing but will never release it. Just like how phil redid all of steves parts on adrenalize. We worked tirelessly making riffs and melodies.

[@Caltops78]

His intro riff to this song is a little piece of rock heaven

[@electricgigolo]

The best song on the Hysteria album. An album that's full of great tracks and one of the best albums of the 80's.

[@joeemackie1272]

Def Leppard is the best rock band I've ever heard. I fell in love with them when I first heard them in the eighties. I'm giving my age away, that's OK! LOL! I love Joe Elliot's voice and looks, too. The other band members aren't to shabby either. What I'm really impressed with is how they all sound together and how they work so well together. Eighties music rocks and is the best, in my opinion! Thumbs up to you Def Leppard!!!

[@sydneybrazier14]

Now I'm only 15 but ever since I first heard them I've loved them! I've seen them twice in concert and they still sound amazing

[@justingenow9778]

Sydney Brazier hey!!! Im 16 and i love def leppard too!!!

[@paulmichaelfreedman8334]

I have noticed recently i my 80's revival psychosis :P that british rock bands are much more like family (Maiden, leppard, QUEEN!!!) and that american top rock bands are managed more like a business. In that respect I am proud to be british.

[@JoeyMcSmokey]

I saw this concert twice, once in the round. They are amazing!

[@davidvironet6344]

@@JoeyMcSmokey i kick myself in the ass not seeing steve play.

[@katherineinaction3155]

Steve Clark...your my guitar hero..God rest your soul...thanks for the skipping school memories...now I'm a great guitar player like you.

[@CarolMarineMom]

So cool! He would have done Great things!💙🎵🎸

[@alexroddie1415]

Great name Katherine. Love it!

[@brifiles4092]

Best def leppard song EVER !!! I wish they played it at the shows ... Did get to hear it at one show in Massachusetts though 💖

[@tannernightingale2982]

Well, they actually play it often. If you watch the Live in the Round in Denver, they play it

[@brifiles4092]

+Tanner Tot they don't play it in New England. Only once they did . They did gods of war and don't shoot shot gun . It was fkn awesome 😊

[@tannernightingale2982]

+Bree Wormwood I bet it was! I recently got into Don't Shoot Shotgun and I freaking love it!

[@RiffRock51]

Awesome. What year and what venue in Massachusetts?

[@maidenthunder]

FUCKING AWESOME, SEMPER FI OOO RAHHHH!

[@CJshazz]

The intro to this song is 👍👍👍

[@ilovesteveclark6084]

CJ of course the beginning of this song is amazing, it's STEVE'S RIFF!

[@kelly5199]

It's fire …..

[@billkeithchannel]

The other phenomenal song with an epic instrumental intro is _White Lightning_

[@ryanj99]

One of my favorites. I especially love the outro guitar.

[@temucintemucin1797]

Def Leppard is the best rock band of the world.

[@CarolMarineMom]

[@SuperPhilly5]

They are good but not close to being the greatest

[@Nick-xv5ci]

They’re glam (hair) metal...

[@ttech694]

AC⚡DC

[@nichigton7878]

Name another hair metal band that came through what they did and conquered America. They are without doubt the greatest hard rock / metal band that climbed the mountain multiple times. Hard living, hard playing. Over came.

[@kaylanic1427]

Going to their concert in 2 weeks, they are amazing live! Wish I could've seen them perform in the 80s

[@CameronRoses]

I saw them in 1988 after Hysteria came out and again in 2004. They were awesome.

[@sydneybrazier14]

Kayla Therese me too I went last october and again last week ahaha!

Hang in there my friend

[@juliemurray4852]

Take care, my friend. I've struggled with suicidal thoughts all my life. I can understand why Steve took drugs and alcohol. Just to forget. Hang in there!

[@billkeithchannel]

During this time I watched a lot of friends who had relationships that ended in war. Only 1 asked themselves "what the hell we fighting for?" and they have been married for 35 years now.

MARVELLOUS TRACK 👍 👌 👏 HYSTERIA, MARVELLOUS ALBUM 👍 👌 👏

[@petMonster28]

Def Leppard is not my favorite rock band of all time (although they're up there), but Hysteria truly is the greatest rock album ever recorded, IMHO. It truly stood the test of time the way many critically-acclaimed, far more popular, better-selling albums did not.

[@LeoraVukovic]

Mocna neodoljiva numera koja moze uvijek da se slusa posebna

[@WeerdWulf]

Still one of my favourite Leppard tunes 👍

[@williambroadstreet3353]

The genius who 'was' Leppard left the world and generations this iconic song. Strip it back and look at how intricately created it is, the melodies, harmonies, chord construction, riffing, bends, hooks. Steven Maynard 'The Riffmaster' Clark had it all. There are so many other songs that are imo in this GOW league. TLFL, Billy, Foolin, Photograph, Rock Rock for example, and the early tracks that he created. On stage strapped low, Kahler deftly working his LP's, this man was a genius. But, a sad, lonely tortured man who's Father even Ross Halfin who has taken THE most pictures of Steve even has said he will hold Steve's bastard Father responsible for the rest of his life. The way Steve created music was beyond special. Viv, as humble and brilliant as he is said it as fact, despite Elliot and Sav not agreeing "90pc of what we play Steve left us". Steve was NOT a shredder, but he could shred, play very very fast if he needed and did on songs, but he was for something else, 'feeling and emotion'. On stage strapped low, darting around, who've you seen 360 a 18 string Razor with such grace? The good, or stunningly gifted do die young so much. But for all his demons, his brother Collen and Steve enjoyed so many memories. I recommend all buy Collins book 'Adrenalize'. There is not a single day that Phil does not think about his best mate. All we have are the wonderful, incalculable memories he left us. Joe calls "GOW" Steve's "Kashmir".

All these lasers/lights going off around the arena.....amazing!

[@raindeerprojekt4119]

It is really a well built song crafted with well placed hearts and Wit... Its a time capsule from an age when music was much more of an escape and a Mirror to what once was.... As I reach Middle age I find them all the more relevant.. Dylan Lep and Mazzy Star Still holding me hostage

[@maxmusic8386]

As the 80s (music and politics) strolled right along. This band tucked this gem into its arsenal of hits, camafloging it with music theory that only their ACE guitarist could deliver with just rhe right amount of pop for its fan base to understand its powerful meaning and message .. basically letting the world know not to mess with Rock in the free world as we knew it then and as we know it now. "They counted on America to be passive, th hey counted wrong"

Its such an underrated song as well as shoot shotgun. Unfortunately the reason those two didnt make it to hit radio is because they werent about women/sex/love, and they were long songs. IMO some of the better songs of the Hysteria album.
