DEF LEPPARD - "Two Steps Behind" | Singer Reacts |

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

Def Leppard are renowned 4 their harmonies! 🔥

[@datacipher]

It’s the whole band. They all sing - even in perfect harmony - in concert, while playing live. There’s only one song that I know of where each sings individually. Note that this was a bit of a throwaway song - a b side single that was released long before it became a hit. Leppard has so many good songs it was just another. It wasn’t until the movie Last Action Hero came to them wanting a song, that they picked this one, the song was rereleased along with the promotion for the movie and it became a big hit.

[@ponraul1221]

This went to #10 on US charts in October of 1993. It’s one their very few acoustic songs.

[@conan5885]

This song was MASSIVE in the early 90's, it was on the radio like, on a daily basis

[@petschmann]

Leppard are a living legend, my Lady!

[@sumonjamal1653]

Def Leppard are fans of Queen and wanted to emulate them in the aspect of band members singing harmonies and backing vocals behind Freddie Mercury... So, Def Leppard also became famous for their vocal harmonies in their songs as Rick Savage (bass), Rick Allen (drums), Phil Collen (guitar) and (the late) guitarist Steve Clark... and current guitarist Vivian Campbell would sing on the records and in concert behind lead singer Joe Elliott... The music press accused Def Leppard of using pre-recorded vocals in concert for years... Finally, Def Leppard appeared on VH1 to perform live and they demonstrated that the members' vocals were authentic and not pre-recorded backing tracks. Taylor Swift picked Def Leppard to perform w/ on the CMT channel's 'Crossroads' program in 2008... and they did a remarkable collaboration where a young Taylor Swift sang Def Leppard songs and Def Leppard also accompanied her band when she sang her songs. Recently, Joe Elliott revealed that his kids are Taylor Swift fans and they didn't believe him when he told them that he and Def Leppard had performed w/ her until he showed them the 'Crossroads' show on DVD.

BEAUTIFUL SONG! ♥️

[@Sir_AlexxTv]

Amazing band, I've seen them twice live and they are more than worth the price of the ticket.

[@cheyennehunt9954]

They have some of best harmonies in rock. Yes they're really singing. It's a thing that can hear immediately in Mutt Lange productions. IMO the best Rock Producer of all time.

[@cheyennehunt9954]

Notice the dual guitar harmonies too. That's a signature sound.

[@elimarsilvanikock7818]

One of the most rocking bands ever , had the honor to see them live in las vegas august 14 2019 in planet Hollywood zappos theater on las vegas , i flew from my tiny Caribbean island aruba 🇦🇼 to vegas to see my childhood rock heroes , life changing experience, what a band

[@datacipher]

This was actually one of their throwaway b side singles. It was released before but then the producers of Last Action Hero came to the band looking for a song for the soundtrack and they picked this. So it was rereleased with the movie and became a huge hit. Basically any one of the hundreds of songs they’ve written are potential hits.

[@AndreMedeiros-jd5tg]

You should listen to them more. They’re really really good group.

[@kileypaet8221]

I was just going to suggest this.

[@jackdixon29jd]

TUNE!!!

[@datacipher]

No. If you’re set on ballads only then Love Bites is the more interesting piece even though Collide is a nice song.

[@WhizzyMcBride1564]

Joe wrote this song after Rick lost his arm joe was letting him know that it would be okay if he wanted to but as you see Rick is still hear . And all the guys sing .

[@ponraul1221]

That’s completely false. This song was written in 1990 after the death of Steve Clark. This is way after Rick’s accident in New Years 1984.

[@WhizzyMcBride1564]

@@ponraul1221 sorry to burst your bubble but Steve help write that song with joe after Rick lost his arm because joe was leaving it up to Rick if he wanted to play again.

[@ponraul1221]

@@WhizzyMcBride1564 Cut the bs. It seems I was off by a few months. “The song was composed and demoed by lead singer Joe Elliott in 1989 during the writing and recording sessions for the band's fifth album Adrenalize. The track was shelved for three years until it resurfaced following a late-night acoustic jamming session with the Hothouse Flowers in March 1992, which yielded three B-side tracks. When Elliott suggested recording "Two Steps Behind", Collen suggested that it be recorded as an acoustic version. The track was recorded in a few hours in April 1992 and was released as the B-side to "Make Love Like a Man" in the UK.”

So many great songs from Leppard

Their second album High & Dry is great too

[@LeRoy-z5f]

So happy to see you reacting to my all time favorite band. The Warning is #2.

[@CJohn1993]

this song was actually written about their lead guitarist whom passed due to a drug overdose he had terrible stage fright and would use upper and downers accordingly to be able to do shows and eventually it became too much.

[@ponraul1221]

Steve Clark suffered from alcoholism. Not such drugs you’re talking about. This is the 2nd comment I’ve seen claiming blatantly false information.

[@CJohn1993]

@@ponraul1221 he died of a mixture between alcohol and prescription drugs look it up before you act like you know what you're talking about about.

[@ponraul1221]

@@CJohn1993 Right, but the band throughout the years across numerous interviews always said his main problem was with alcohol; something you’ve omitted entirely in your comment claiming about his issues. I can back this up with at least an hour of testimony from the band across different interviews, yet I’ve heard nothing about the uppers and downers and stage fright. In those same interviews the band said Steve was a very shy person and required alcohol for confidence off stage, but he very was typically very happy to play on stage for the crowd. If you’ve primary sources otherwise I’ll happily be wrong. But right now it’s looking like you’re misrepresenting the struggles and death of a person.

[@datacipher]

She clearly hasn’t listen to them lol… she’d know it’s the band backing vocally and that even in concert they sing in perfect harmony while playing!

[@dansaint2249]

little trivia...in the video, the lead singer, Joe Elliott is legit limping throughout the video. He had hurt his back a few days earlier playing soccer.

[@ponraul1221]

He looks like he’s limping because he was actually walking backwards. The filmed the music video in the summer of 1993 on a short “break” from their tour. He was not injured.

[@dansaint2249]

@@ponraul1221 he actually was. On their Vault DVD that has their videos on it, there is audio commentary. Joe talks about it. Because he flashes a look at the director (you can tell when he's rounding the corner)

[@MegaSargent1]

I grew up with this band one of the first albums I heard was Pyromania which just had it's 40th Anniversary which is hard to believe it seems like yesterday that I was listening to the album on Cassette there isn't a bad song on the record Photograph and Rock Of Ages are great plus Foolin is also a good one Hysteria is another good album that came out after Pyromania and during This Time Rick Allen lost his arm in a car crash so he had to switch to a different drum kit plus the band lost Steve Clark after the record came out which was very sad and replaced him with Vivian Campbell who had played with Ronnie James Dio The High N Dry record is fantastic also from start to finish it's a rocking album

There drummer only has 1 arm

[@maverick4you]

Joe Elliot lead sang then rest of band did backup vocals. Notive drummer Rick Allen playing with ONE ARM. He lost it in car accident but created a drum kit that is electrical controlled by feet and remaining arm

[@datacipher]

I’m really impressed that the commenters here did NOT bring up this highly overused drummer bit until this guy. Kudos to the rest of you. We really don’t need to read this in every single comment from the people who think this is one of the most important things about the band - it isn’t.
