🎵 DEF LEPPARD - LOVE BITES - REACTION

[@Bmphotog]

Makes me homesick for a Time that no longer exists. What a great song still...

[@starlord5032]

Couldn't agree more. I remember slow dancing with a pretty girl to this song.. now its actually illegal to dance!

You and me both.

Over produced in my opinion I liked "High n Dry" as it retaind the bands hard rock edge.

[@bdavidson8658]

@@sventextor1309 Ya I agree although I do like this song this is when they started to sell out unfortunately. You should do Let it Go my favourite Leppard song.

[@sventextor1309]

@@bdavidson8658 yes@ b davidson you are right on the money.....a lot of the NWOBHM bands sold out... I dont mind a consession to selling more records as long as the essence of the band is not comprimised in the process.

[@truthisbest]

This song literally makes me cry. The guitar parts are just so beautifully put together and the emotional toll of the lyrics just really hits a soft spot in my soul.

[@rorygrime1202]

Steven and Phil knew each other well. U can tell on how they wrote their guitar parts

[@pennydaytreasures8173]

Saw Def Leopard live quite a few times, they are fantastic in concert. They really don’t have a bad song, it’s all great!

[@LN-Lifer]

And they still sound fantastic today!

Brad described it perfectly this time: This song gives us love in its entirety : The good, bad, ugly., and beautiful .

[@ytcag2007]

Been waiting for this one for quite some time. This composition is one of the best I've heard from this band. From my point of view, this song is about staying with someone you are in love with but you know is not committed to you 100%. Thank you so much for the video, reaction and comments. Stay safe and stay blessed. 😊❤🤘🤘

[@maximelesperance4132]

I cannot grow tired of this song, I love how we can “feel” it !

[@yeahboiii6640]

So amazing how this song teleports me to the 80s and being with my high school GF. Her and I still talk and she says the exact same thing. She hears this song and thinks of me too. Def Leppard was one of my top 4 or so in the 80s.

[@princeofpcos9804]

Hysteria, from the same album, also called Hysteria, is my fave. This was a big high school dance must-play back the day

[@supermhart]

My favorite song!

Always love it when the younger generations are turned on to our generation’s music!!!

[@vivianhayes6865]

This song was playing everywhere one summer. Fukn lov it

[@anthonymichel4660]

Holy shit ! When this was released the same thing happened to me. I can't begin to tell you how something like this feels. God how this song hurts to hear again. I'll tell you this I wouldn't trade the times I had in the 80's for anything. Great choice.

[@stephaniethompson7033]

My favorite Def Leppard song!! I remember making out to this song in my 79 Cutlass. We played this tape over & over. Back then you had to guess how long you needed to rewind the tape to get to the start of the song you wanted to hear. Oh how I wish we had CDs back then. ♥️🤘🏻💋🎸🥁🎤🎧🎹

[@ugadawgs1990]

Def Leppard has been putting out so much great music since the early 80s. Saw them open for Billy Squire. Best band outta Sheffield UK.

[@karendavis2668]

I actually love that you guys react to mostly lyric videos. A lot of songs I'm familiar with, but have never *heard* the lyrics. Thanks! ❤️

[@raindeerprojekt4119]

She feels this the way we did when it was released. MASTER WORK of late 1900's Musical Expression

[@pavelbuchnevich1229]

Def Leppard needs to be heard live, they are an amazing live band. Also, their drummer lost an arm in a car accident so he's playing the drums with just one arm.

[@GenX4ever]

Yup. This was the jam to couples skate to at the roller rink back in 1989. Little did my 12 year old heart know...Love indeed does bite!⚡🤟⚡

[@wrsp4life1]

Yall should def check out "Too late for love".. One of their best love songs

Hell yes!

This has always been one of my favorite songs in life. Amazing song.

[@str5295]

I like Brad's face while he's listening. That's how I am when I'm processing music.

[@MariahTahmisian]

I love this song!! Great choice! Please do Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad by them for kind of a similar great song. Also recommend Photograph, Gods Of War, Armageddon It, Mirror Mirror and Let's Get Rocked.

[@Habeev07]

Honestly DEF LEPPARD is a top-10 band in R&R history. The sheer number of hits they had. I cant think of many other band maybe aside from like Fleetwood Mac, Beatles, Zeppelin, Metallica, Aerosmith, Queen, Van Halen... Def Leppard just had so many hard hitting bangers!! Photograph, Rocket, Animals, Love bites, Too late for love, Bringing on the heartbreak, Hysteria, Pour some sugar on me, Foolin, Armageddon it!! SO MANY HITS!!!

[@Myah234]

I’m 25 and omggg i love this song!! My parents were into 80’s & 70’s rock. I grew up with this music and i love it

[@tonycampbell4982]

Love to hear when Steve Clark is doing lead and his dive bombs on guitar stick out the def Leppard sound!

[@xtldc]

Way back in the early 90s when I was in the 10th grade, I lost my virginity on a rainy autumn night. At one point, I remember pausing for a few seconds so as to make a mental note of the moment, to preserve the memory - this song was playing on the radio. It’s weird that I remember these details because in the 30 years since then, there have been a lot of women whose faces are just a blur in my mind, barely memorable at all, and many whose name I have long forgotten or never knew in the first place.

[@DarthFlan]

One of their best ballads!

[@andersgranstrom7128]

Masterpiece!😍

[@jvieira3807]

This is by far one of the best rock bands of that era. Phenomenal instrumental work. Just to think the drummer had only ONE arm!!! ❤️😝🤘🏼 They definitely don't make music like this anymore....I love her facial expressions 😆

Of all of Def Leppard’s great songs, this was their first Billboard #1 song.

[@AcousticGString]

I've seen Def Leppard 2 times, once in 2003 and again in 2014. I've also seen a bunch of other 80s bands, Scorpions 2014, Poison 2014, Skid Row in 2001, Great White in 08. I saw Joan Jett open for the Animals in 2014. I saw AC/DC and Guns N Roses in 2001. Motley Crue in 2013, it was supposed to be their last show but wasn't. Ziggy Marley somehow, a bunch of other bands for other various reasons like Creed, Three Doors Down, a friend of mine was a drummer in Boo Gotta Fix so I saw Local H. I saw the Pixies at the Aragon Ballroom in 08 as well as Frank Zappa. God, I'll have to think but theres more...

[@Iamageniusru1982]

What a kick ass album from start to finish. The cream of the crop for Def Leopard! The best album of the late 80s hands down!

[@TrisTT-qe4em]

Always thought this song was about, someone you hooked up with occasionally or maybe when ever you were in that city, but than you started to have stronger feelings for them, and your questioning if they are thinking of you in same way. Another great song. Plus any video with Tawney Katean, has to be a great song. I was in love with her, even if I was like only 14.. check her out on the hood of cat in white shakes video.. wow. “Here I go again”..

[@lsufan4138]

I had a crush on her too.

Love Def Leppard!! Hysteria is an amazing song you should check out

[@raulcastro3277]

Great song from a great era, (side note) from all us Rockers I think our man Brad should buy our girl Lex a guitar for her b-day and let her begin that journey.

[@AriseNBMen]

What a band! What a song! I'm still in love with you, Lex!

[@donaldking757]

This is a song about being madly in love with another person who is only interested in their own pleasure. The song started out as a country song and Def Leppard made it in too this. None of the band members played this together at the same time while in the studio. But it was done in pieces. Only after the song became a hit did they have to get together and figure out how to play the song live.

I saw them at a show about 15 years after this song came out. When the first guitar notes of this song rang out over the PA half of the women’s heads in the crowd kind of bobbed. Buckling knees on about 5K women at the same time looks wild

That's exactly what the song is about I know you think love is the way you make it( what a great lyric with a double meaning) you think love is whatever you want it to be and also you think sex is love(the way you make it) It can't be love if you throw it about....she doesn't know heat true love is. It's just a word she uses when it suits her. She doesn't know what love is. He does. He loves her and can't resist her but he knows she does not love him so he is going to get hurt

I first heard this when I was like 9 years old. My mom played this album quite a bit after she divorced my dad and had quite a bit of suitors (go Mom!) As a 42-year-old male relistening to this song now, I realise I really had no idea what this song was about when I sang it around the house with the company around. It's pretty filthy but in a good Def way.

[@SilentBob731]

Possibly the greatest power ballad of all time.

[@smittybenzo4693]

In this episode of Brad & Lex, a quick Styx comparison is made by Lex before allowing Leppards "Defness" to take over her physical being which creates her "back forth frontal bop" as Brad seems to enjoy this 80,s tune but remains neutral not without at least giving us a low energy "side to side sway".
