flotsam & jetsam - saturday nights alright for fighting

[@BBMetalKing]

I teach high school math in Anaheim. During Covid, I play music before my virtual classes on "Thrashing Thursdays." This tune is currently playing. \m/

[@Lanz-z5t]

Awesome!

[@Lanz-z5t]

Can I join your class?

[@nellsonstout7001]

That’s pretty fuckin cool! 100% would do that if I was a teacher

[@davidmoralesrojas6368]

Hahahaha How ridiculous 🤦

[@henrym7427]

Fucking amazing

[@marcschmidt7846]

Absoluter Kult! Ach was waren die seligen 1980er doch für eine geile Zeit!

Headbangers Ball memories

[@suds740]

80's thrash is awesome!

[@scootterpootter]

Just won tickets to see them this Friday night in Detroit!! Can't wait!!

[@j.r.metalcomposer7452]

metal is supposed to be fun:) These guys make it fun,long live metal:)

[@simonhunter3430]

great choice for a cover

[@metalhead-forever]

Like Exodus "Good Friendly Violence Fun"

[@335bye4]

@@metalhead-forever Toxic waltz!!! That was a great time for music.

[@kreuzzer2845]

Icannot say it in a better way!

[@hasselbaink2000]

absolutely awesome and the best cover of this song !

[@waynenewcombe3163]

1 of my top ten favorite albums of all time... hands down!!!

[@StaticXD00d]

Best version of this song ever.

[@andy101971]

IM 15 again, I still get chills hearing that remake.

[@qurazy]

I love how they kept the piano slide in right before the chorus.

[@kreuzzer2845]

yeah thats absolutely right

[@javiervargas9392]

Saw them live mid 80s they were heavy🤘🏻 still enjoy

[@daevven]

Damn. I feel much younger listen to this : D

[@brianturpin3171]

awesome cover song they did

[@serratlantean8662]

One of my favorite tunes. Thank you!

[@kevinbaldwin4816]

When the world and music was so good

[@pepehurricane]

Totally Agree.

[@jgbuckley]

The Erik A.K. scream - one of the best ever.

[@MrJohnny583]

Hell yeah! Elton John meets thrash!!!👊💪🤘

[@NIKKGAGE1994]

when my dad was 17 back when he lived in pheonex, my dad used to hang with the singer of this band, and he used to go to their house partys, he also chilled with jason back when he was in flatsom

[@MalibuStacy666]

the best cover EVER

[@artrock101]

Jason was only on the first record (Doomsday...), but a few of the songs from this (2nd) record give him songwriting credit., including one of the best tunes from the early repertoire, "I Live, You Die."

[@faultier1971]

One of the best covers ever!

[@jesusmatos5329]

me fascina esta banda!!!

[@lediabolique5822]

This has just gone on my favourites!

[@AAndrews1968]

Great song, great band! Awesome music. Thanks for sharing....:)

[@joeylodes]

"No Place For Disgrace" by F&J Absolutely Ruled!! I was beyond pissed back in the day when THIS song was picked as the single and video. You can just sense that was a friggin A&R rep's douche move, Because the rest of the album was killer! Not that this was that bad, but their own material, especially this album, was SO much better!

[@Metal_Archaeologist]

love this cover. thanks for the upload.

[@Slakendorf]

Old but always good! I have at home mouses with names Flotsam and Jetsam!:))Bye now from Czech Republic.

[@DanzoB79]

VERY good cover. I banged my head a good deal during the song.

[@antkowiak11]

one of the greatest covers of all fucking time!

[@simonhunter3430]

sure is

[@visualthings]

good energy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this song was a welcome incident in the boredom of my teenagehood

[@jamesmoss3424]

It's a killer cover song. 😀👍🤘🎸

[@willhays1678]

slamming and Headbangers Ball back in the day!

[@simonhunter3430]

first time i heard this was on headbangers ball. came across the cd single in a record fair shortly after. classic!!!

[@darthmeow1370]

Rarely has a standard rock song more strongly begged for a heavy metal cover to unleash its full potential for speed and power than this one, and F+J nailed it perfectly. It's hard to listen to the original anymore after experiencing this version.

[@brigade911]

nah, I listened to the cover many years ago and to the original version many years later, the original rocks so much more and I'm not by any chance an Elton John fan, I can't came even 3 of his songs. I think the guitar riffing on the cover is horrible, robs the song of all it's vitality

[@frigidpony]

All they did was add distorted guitar chugs to it.

[@onedoomeyboi5870]

@@brigade911 I think It domes down to the production to be honest, this album is full of that thin mid-late 80s thrash tone. They re-recorded the album and redid this song on there too and that version sounds much better production and instrumentation wise.

[@antondzajajurca7797]

I was always wondering here F&J went wrong?!? They were perfect musicwise

[@philipposkasotis8658]

Great underrated band. But it can be answered in two ways. 1.This band never made a master of puppets and the fact that Jason left these guys to join metallica, there will always be the comparison. And I love this band and don't wanna insult them, but they never topped no place for disgrace. Two as time went on thrash was not the most extreme thing anymore, and had no place anywhere. If you wanted to be loud and hard you played death or black metal, if you wanted to be softer you played grunge. Thrash was harder then grunge, but softer then death and black metal

[@sargerobo5792]

@anton you may want to check out their most recent 2 albums, a self-titled and End of Chaos. Both are absolutely fantastic, and they can go head to head with their first 2 in my opinion

[@micahj9828]

Shot themselves in the foot by changing the guitar tone on Quatro. Downhill from there.

[@Rage-of-War]

@@philipposkasotis8658 you need to go revisit some new releases. The End Of Chaos, Blood in the Water, Even The Cold are all spectacular!!!

[@daevven]

For me its a great cover. Hearing it makes me wanna drink beer, headbanging and feel alright : )

[@gungriffen]

Thats What Metal should look and sound like!

[@KaiSagehorn]

Best version!!!

Wow, this brings back great memories! I had this tape. (#oldass) Thanks for posting! \m/

[@periair8874]

But that’s the 80er. 😅

Sludgiest guitar tone ever 🤘

[@jonathancroce3118]

old school.

[@harryhaller42]

Those were the days ! Great cover !

[@Nep1701]

I loved playing this tune in the car. Since these guys werent mainstream my friends would go "Is this that Elton John tune?" Followed by: "This version is much better!"

[@anthrax2525]

Fine cover of an equally fine Elton John tune. You never know who your favorite band's gonna like, do you?

[@cesarioj.f.g.7959]

Eternal clip \\m//

[@THECLARENCES]

Flotsam & Elton!!! xoxo The Clarences

one of the best covers ive ever heard...

Holy crap, I had no idea flotsam & jetsam was this heavy. I totally wanna watch these guys destroy the guys in Firehouse.

KILLER COVER!!!!! WANT TO GET MY BELLY FULL OF BEER!!!!!

W.A.S.P. did the best cover, but I ain't gonna knock these guys. F&J were a part of MY gen and they will live forever with me!! Remember: IF IT'S TOO LOUD, YOU'RE TOO FUCKIN OLD!! Z-Rock rules!

@ 00:31 thats my brother Jim on top of the crowd. He went to this show cause they were filming for MTV... He just died 2 days ago..... Wow... I am not sure how this is going to go.

[@simonhunter3430]

An old VHS of an MTV episode brought me here. I have the CD single of it too, but my budgie shat all over the cover when i left it lying around and ruined it! :(

Not really...they had Dimebag for the solo.

You could almost see the Posey coming out of them here. Thank goodness they didn't make a habit of redoing 70s hits.

[@luisalejandro276]

Excelente!

[@uchiabetrayer2]

@GoldCoastChuck no he wasn't, however he did take credit for writing half of the songs on this album. I believe this guy is Troy Greogry on bass.

[@eric_c1189]

Oh my god!! I've heard of this band before but I never thought they were a badass metal band with a name like that😂and I'm into some pretty obscure punk,metal and everything else,shame on me

[@MindFury]

They have an extensive library of some great albums. One the if not most under rated metal bands of all time.Should deff check them out.

[@Stormarizon]

Saturday Nights all right for Headbangin!!! OOOOWWWWW

[@majkellica]

can anyone bring back an old stuff by flotsam? Clip was the title Suffer The Masses. It was awsome. Please:)

[@CARLITOMEZA]

una banda bien legendaria del thrash

[@rigormortis6669]

Best Elton John cover out there

[@darthmeow1370]

As awesome as this is, I'd give the "Best EJ cover" honors to Dream Theater's rendition of "Funeral for a Friend / Love Lies Bleeding" which is on another level entirely.

[@Nintendodo64]

@thickmass22 It sounded really metal to me.

[@thomashartman208]

Metal covers are the best.

[@WingDiamond]

They should put THIS version on Hockey Night In Canada! Or better still, on the American Version!

[@chris-fh3vu]

awesome

[@DjTokenMusic]

@ImpalersDK its the sound a guitar makes when its got far too much bass in it. theres good metal tone, and theres this one

[@alaindashung]

great cover ! one of the finest I've ever heard !!!
