EPIC!| FIRST TIMEHEARING Warrant - Uncle Toms Cabin REACTION

[@deanarjones9114]

My favorite Warrant song. The band wanted Uncle Toms Cabin released first. Record execs wanted Cherry Pie. 32 Pennies is another great lesser known song of theirs that I like. Jani Lane was an excellent songwriter and vocalist. Great band all around.

[@shaunfoskey9958]

Mine too!!!

[@danwilliams5867]

This was Warrant and showed the excellent musicians they were

[@Reshtarc]

This song is one of their best 32 Pennies. RIP Jani Lane

[@deawiechard]

Yess same !!!

[@joshcaldwell1908]

@deanarjones9114 I totally agree. Jani was a great singer and fantastic songwriter. Gone way too soon. RIP Jani Lane

[@BethAlbekeit]

Was watching old Warrant videos and spotted your reaction videos. Today would have been Jani Lane’s 60th birthday. Love that you are experiencing his vocals so many years after his passing.

[@agedefyingfitness]

This song is simply brilliant!

[@ItsMeJenBB]

Warrant is one of the most under rated hair bands. Jani Lane had one of the best voices. I saw Red is a great song, along with Heaven, Sometimes She Cries, and like someone else said, 32 pennies is a great song. He was such a nice guy too, on top of being so talented. I met him and his then gf Bobbi Brown (the girl from Cherry Pie video) at the bar he used to own here in Orlando. He was SO down to earth and nice. Ugh, Im still so sad he passed away.

[@TJ-id6ee]

Me too, it's a sad story.

[@detroit163]

Warrant - I Saw Red great song

[@MrBadSeal]

Warrant hugely underrated band like Steelheart and Y&T

[@BigJohnLXV]

yes! I saw Red is my favorite Warrant song

[@poguemom3]

Agree! They were great!

[@missmelissa2303]

Jani Lane was not only a great vocalist but also a deeply underrated songwriter. Down Boys is another banger, Blind Faith and Sometimes She Cries are phenomenal ballads - all musts. Rest in Peace Jani ❤

[@armynurseboy]

The whole first album was awesome.

[@ronparsons8786]

Down boys!

[@MRDINO0419]

Down Boys is basically a cover of The Cars Bye Bye Love. But this song kicks ass. Not surprised at all that Mike Slamer played most if not all solos on Warrants albums. Turner and Allen weren't exactly shredders which is surprising because during that time even crappy bands had badass guitarists!

[@USGrant-rr2by]

Kind of feel if this song and Down Boys would have been released first as singles it would have changed the perception, reception, and direction that Warrant would have had in the late 80s. After Cherry Pie they were kind of always relegated as a 2nd tier hair band. Their talent was definitely 1st tier. Them and Cinderella, IMO, had a lot more musical talent than a lot of bands ranked ahead of them.

[@melhawl3685]

Love Jani Lane!

[@stephanieclark9849]

*Warrant - "Blind Faith", "Mr. Rainmaker," "I Saw Red", "Sometimes She Cries" are some other greats. 'Uncle Tom's Cabin is one of my favorites! Warrant is definitely a band you need to do more reactions to. Their whole playlist is just awesome!* 🔥

[@generoberts9151]

“I Saw Red” should be next

[@melissaward42]

Mr. Rainmaker was always a favorite of mine

[@soundbreak7]

Love blind faith and mr rainmaker

[@elmiguel17]

Please ass "big talk" in that list haha the litics are relatable

[@headlibrarian1996]

Other than the lead single Cherry Pie was a really a heavy blues-rock album.

[@jeffphillips9588]

Down Boys is such a great fun tune!

[@chriso6719]

I concur.

[@RayfordRaySiegel]

Yeah!

[@bobmartin4021]

I'm a hardcore headbanger from the 80's and this song is cemented in my top 5 songs of all time, period. The variety of instruments, the fact that they tell a story, and the moment they shift from banjo to electric, it hits you in the face like a flying elbow from Connor MacGregor! Mad love and appreciation to the Rob Squad Crew!!

[@jasonjennings9087]

I saw Warrant open for Motley Crue. They debuted “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” live that night. It hadn’t come out yet. I was one of the 1st to hear this one!

[@mandymcnalis7551]

Warrant was my very first concert. Jani mooned the security guard that knocked over the bottle of booze Jani had offered him. Even trashed the dude had pipes.

[@shepherdkelley4156]

I also saw Warrant open for Motley Crue. It was my second concert and it was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@that1dragonkid]

A lot of people (including myself) couldn't get past the cheesiness of Cherry Pie and basically wrote Warrant off as just another hair metal band. This is a really good song, that 30+ years later, I can appreciate.

[@jme808]

Facts 💯

[@jeannieeakin1374]

Yeah, even Jani hated that song.

[@clintonhunt3197]

Truth brother!!

[@Jeffstoyspokemoncars]

There next album is straight up metal with great songs...they changed in a way i would say almost as much as Skid Row did on the Slave to the Grind album.

[@ay_ay_ron2112]

But that music video though is 🔥.

[@tonyalaudermilk9797]

Warrant has so many great songs but "I Saw Red" you can really hear the emotion in Jani Lane's voice!

[@incantation521]

He actually wrote I saw red about a girlfriend he caught in coitus. She was with a guitarist from another famous band.

[@carriehindman478]

Great song; heard it live and it was amazing!

[@kichigan1]

Definitely

[@kelleychilton2524]

@@incantation521 Yes, he caught his girlfriend in the act of getting it on with Richie Sambora.

[@martinlopez758]

Yes! Warrant's best song, IMO. Love Jani's voice. one of the best ever. So happy to have you hear this one. They were much heavier than their radio songs, but even their ballads were great.

[@WarrantOfficial]

Thanks for watching 🤘❤

[@UnkleRuckusNoRelation]

It's a "Dog Eat Dog" world my friend.

[@jeffphillips9588]

I Saw Red by Warrant is a real powerful ballad by them that was real popular in 91’. Very emotional song

[@kelleychilton2524]

Yes, based on a true event.

[@rmenzies805]

Jani Lane was one of the best singers of the hair era. Totally underrated

[@Adottir]

That is so true. He was exceptionally good live too, something that can't be said about many metal singers of the era or even today. And he actually maintained his voice pretty well into his later years despite heavy drinking. Some live recordings from the last years started to show some trouble with highest notes but that is nothing compared to many other 90's metal singers who actually turn the microphone to the audience when they would need to go high.

[@cyndisanimaladventures6370]

Probably the only Warrant song I still lip sink. Love, love, love this song. You guys got so serious when you realized it was the sheriff doing the killing.

[@justinatest9456]

Lyp sync

[@cyndisanimaladventures6370]

@@justinatest9456 I'm 46 years old. Who cares?🤣

[@michaelnerychel6727]

Their best song by far. I still jam out to this one all the time!

[@RockFan89]

The intro was played by Jani's older brother Eric Oswald My Dad wasnt into hard rock but he liked the story of this song

[@evabyrum3327]

❤ The structure of this song is phenomenal hands down!!!!! Has always been a favourite every since it first came out!!!! This is their more serious side and I am glad you FINALLY gave it a listen!!! Cherry Pie was NOT their favourite btw. They felt like it tarnished their look and the sound they wanted to be known for. This is the REAL Warrent!!!!❤

[@seandobson6221]

This is such a great song by a great 80s hair band. RIP Lani Jane

[@jeffreyflint6286]

My favourite by warrant. Also from the album- I Saw Red. Give that one a spin.

[@mikesavage2114]

Yes! "I Saw Red" is another good one!

[@Shrykespeare]

Warrant kind of caught the tail end of the hair-metal era, which kind of got run over by the grunge movement of the early 90s. Warrant had some great tunes, three of which you've now heard. Try "Down Boys", "Sometimes She Cries", "I Saw Red", and "Blind Faith". No doubt about it, Jani Lane was a helluva frontman!

[@michaelgreer9673]

Don't forget about Big Talk , Dog Eat Dog , Family Picnic , etc

[@ericsmith6615]

Wife here..This!!!

[@armynurseboy]

Their whole first album was awesome

[@joshcaldwell1908]

The lead singer is Jani Lane, who sadly passed away in 2011. One of the best singers and songwriters of the hair band era. Definitely need to do more Warrant! Check out Down Boys, Heaven, Sometimes She Cries, Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinkin Rich, the entire Cherry Pie album. RIP Jani Lane

[@smsxiv-nz6dq]

Jani was amazing.

[@Shadowruse]

Saw them open for Motley Crue on the Dr. Feelgood tour and this album wasn't out yet. They played this song for us and said it's on the upcoming album. So good live.

[@kimberleewagner1681]

Great musical story telling....it's like an entire movie summed up in a song. Jani Lane was an amazing writer and VERY underrated!

[@reneeallen3569]

❤❤❤❤❤ The reason they couldn’t tell was the sheriff put the bodies in the wishing well

[@melissagerber7231]

Keep your mouth shut,that's what we're gonna do, 'Less you wanna wind up in the wishing well,too!

[@marlogilliland3917]

Jani was good at pulling the emotions and making us feel, too. "I Saw Red" is another of theirs I like.

[@coffinshaker]

That guitar fill at 5:39 is badass

[@m.vondrake5534]

WARRANT is one of those bands where, to me, 50% of their songs are just ok. 40% of their songs are really good. But 10%... Oh that 10% is freaking FANTASTIC. And this is one of those 10%

[@DarkRanger1975]

Saw them live with Trixter and Firehouse, it was an amazing show.

[@mattmorrow7777]

Firehouse is Excellent also.

[@95ducati916]

Excellent Rockin song .I still have My 80's Warrant concert Shirt . RIP Jani Lane .Wish we could have had you longer for more awesome songs !! Rip !!

[@mikesavage2114]

It's time for "Youth Gone Wild" by Skid Row!

[@glenyoung4170]

This is a Banger !!!!

[@kevinbrock9751]

"I Saw Red" is a great ballad! Jani Lane's singing is awesome in this song too!

[@RayfordRaySiegel]

7:21 - Ha! I love the way that you said that, Amber.

[@jadakid6942]

Warrant has some really excellent songs, even behind the hits, but this is their crowning achievement imo.

[@5ohnnyfive]

So glad you guys liked this song! Another high-energy song to check out is a new artist to you guys, "'rings bell'" Stabbing Westward - and check out their song "Save Yourself"

[@ginapape75]

Jani Lane is was and always will be warrant. His passing was a sad day. He was the talent the face the voice of that whole band.

[@bobmartin4021]

I saw his solo act less than 2 years before he tragically took his own life; He still had an amazing, very rich, and soulful voice, with plenty left in the tank. It was very sad indeed.

[@Metal_Mary]

I love Warrant This Songs bad ass!!🎼🤘❤️‍🔥

[@sylviamc56]

Jani Lane, the lead singer had the best voice. Warrant is always a good listen. RIP Jani, you left us to soon. Could I suggest "I Saw Red", the acoustic version? Very good song. Great reaction to one of my favorite groups.

[@amandabispo2949]

"Uncle Toms Cabin" and "I Saw Red" are my favorite Warrant songs. "Heaven" is another that's a classic.

[@jeremybilbrey1133]

Jani was a hell of a writer...and performer. Ive seen Warrant a bunch of times and they were a great live band. R.I.P Jani

[@kimpeek7586]

The lead singer was the late and great Jani Lani. He wrote all of Warrant’s material, lyrics and music, until he left the band. He passed away August 11, 2011. He was 47 and the world lost a great talent

[@starjacqueline]

Love the Reaction !! If you want to hear more Warrant “Bitter pill”,”I saw red”, Mr Rainmaker” are Great ones to react to:)

[@valogden]

Bitter Pill is really good...Warrant's version of Bohemian Rhapsody sort of??

[@jasonszabo9203]

Bitter Pill is a masterpiece, it's a shame even people that call themselves warrant fans don't know it

[@AppStateSpanky]

In my opinion....THE GREATEST SONG THEY EVER DID!!! Dirty, Raw, and Aggressive!

[@Sephcala]

You are not wrong my friend.

[@edallen3662]

Vocalist is Jani Layne unfortunately he passed a few years ago I believe this is one of the best videos in the business if you are interested they perform one of the most heart-wrenching break up songs it's called I saw red

[@tamalahuckeby9780]

One of my absolutely favorite Warrant song, I saw red is pretty awesome as well.

[@mayet4702]

You said it.

[@jayandjay8793]

Jani Lane is a very underrated song writer and musician. His life is modern tragedy. He still gets shade for doing what most people could only dream of: write a mega hit song (Cherry Pie), on request by the record label, in about 15 minutes. Whether you like the song or not, most musicians spend their entire lives trying to write A singular hit, he did so effortlessly time and again. It’s sad he couldn’t control his demons (some allegedly stemming from being a victim of abuse). He left too soon. As the nostalgia for ‘80 rock/metal returned, there could have been a place for him. RIP!

[@robshriver5006]

Takes me back to high school! I love the acoustic guitar in this song. One of the first acoustic riffs I learned to play. Great choice for a great song! Love you guys! Peace!

[@williamturner3856]

Uncle Tom's Cabin is one of my favorites rock songs of all time - a underrappreciated song of Warrant is "Sometimes She Cries"

[@RayfordRaySiegel]

This reaction is warranted.

[@scottbrozek9021]

AT LAST!!! We’ve been asking for this one for a while now. I’m so glad that you guys have finally decided to view it. It is one of my favorite Warrant songs. Jani Lane (RIP) was the lead vocalist and wrote most of their songs. He had an amazing voice and left us way to soon. Other great songs to check out next are “Mr. Rainmaker”, “Blind Faith” and “The Bitter Pill”. They even did a remake of Queen’s “We Will Rock You” for a movie called Gladiator. Their version isn't too bad.

[@generoberts9151]

Definitely their best song. Just great structure, lyrics and guitar work. There was time when this band came out where they couldn’t make a bad song then It all came to a screeching halt J, just loving his hair band genre!

[@hellokimmy68]

This feels like a good time to request "Possum Kingdom" by Toadies. The singer for Warrant was Jani Lane who died way too young.

[@trinityphotography2595]

Jani was one of the best songwriters of his time! So glad I got to see him perform. I Saw Red, Stronger Now, Love In Stereo, Letter To A Friend, The Bitter Pill and Blind Faith are all amazing songs.

[@Uriel77200]

Love this song

[@blondebiohazard]

One of my favorites! Jay did one hell of a job with his rendition of "Cherry Pie" 🤣, take a listen to "I Saw Red" and "Blind Faith" - I loved Jani, he was so charismatic.

[@dougdimeler5520]

One of the best songs ever!

[@fifikeyser3812]

I worked merch at a show for them before Jani dropped out for the finale time. Sweet sweet man. The song 'I saw Red" is a great one to do next. Ya gotta give us a Review of the song "Give it too me good" by Trixter. We need a hair band day of the week! Hair band Monday to kick off the week!

[@jamestate5059]

Hair Band Monday would be awesome

[@kichigan1]

Thanks for playing this one. The whole album was this great.

[@michaelnerychel6727]

The singers name is Jani Lane. He past away a few years ago. He had a great voice. RIP

Jani was one of the best songwriters of the era. One song I haven't seen anyone talk about is: bed of roses. If you ever lived in a motel this hits home.

[@chaz5229]

I wish I could like this a hundred times. I'm SO GLAD someone FINALLY did this song. My all time FAV Warrant song. It's a banger!!!!

[@valogden]

Jani Lane was an incredible singer and songwriter. He wrote the majority of the songs on their first 3 albums. He said in an interview that Stronger Now was one of tge favorite songs he wrote. I love listening to it. There was nothing like going to a Warrant concert. They were great in large arenas and small dive bars. Anytime they were in town I would go see them I think the last time I saw them was in Vegas at The Aladdin theatre before they tore it down. I miss Jani Lane and the music he still had left to write. Addiction sucks.

[@elizabethklaver7404]

Another great one is "I Saw Red".

This entire CD was one of my faves even as a 90s baby. I love his voice and everything instrumental just hits right 🖤

[@chadro_g1145]

This one is how they should have sounded the entire time, but such is life. This has always been my second favorite of theirs. My personal fav has to be "I saw red" because of the relationship I was in at the time and what she was doing, if you know what I mean. Great song(s), great band, thanks guys for all your music and R.I.P Jani!

I grew up on 80's in the 80's lol. I listened to all the rock and metal. I had zero clue he could sing like that until this song and I Saw Red.🤩

[@johnsmith2046]

Northeast Ohio here again. Warrant's first two albums were really good, and this is probably their most beloved song, even though it is dark. The album this came off of came out in 1990 when I was 17, and we were in a good mood to go out and get it. And the singer of the band was married (for a little while) to Bobbi Brown who I still admire ever since I found out who she was in the summer of 1987 when she was 18 years old.

[@Leogoth68]

The album Cherry Pie was originally named Uncle Tom's Cabin but Warrant's label thought the album needed a "radio friendly" song so Jani wrote Cherry Pie in a few hours. He hated it.
