Hanoi Rocks - Boulevard Of Broken Dreams (live '85)

January 1985, Helsinki
Europe a Go-Go

[@londonboy59]

Mike Monroe, almost certainly the most beautiful man on the planet.

[@FinMarkkikarkki]

24 years ago. i wasnt even born. God damn i love Hanoi Rocks

[@metalheadneji]

Monroe's hair rocks, and so does this song haven't heard it in a while.

[@Pittmail88]

Finnish Freakshow from Heaven. Hanoi ROCKS!

[@Pittmail88]

Hanoi Rocks was a huge influence on just about everything that came out of glam/hair metal. I saw the Taime Down from Faster Pussycat saying exactly that on "That metal show" the other day. L.A. Guns, GN'R, FP you name it. Even The Crue and Cinderella pay tribute.

[@londonboy59]

How fantastic does Mike look in this video..one day every man will look this good...

[@kurtruan3388]

The Clash drummer is tight! They should have continued with this line up.

[@jimstovall1984]

No offense to Razzle, but agree.

[@thadbrains]

Great sound quality. I can't believe this is a live recording.

[@hostilehostage666]

Hanoi rocks is one of those bands that were just great in their time. they are still amazing songs, it's just sad what happened. one of the bands of the glam era that still played true musick

[@candydormizzi2500]

Killer band

[@mikamee14]

Michael Monroe had the coolest hair styles I've ever seen.

[@Backtomysterycityyy]

So fucking amazingly AMAZING. I love them, they were the best.

[@MerchantofTarshish]

Great music for this era

[@Jupppeee]

aaaaaaaand...The line "Welcome to the Jungle" was also featured in the 1984 song "Underwater World" by the Finnish glam punk band Hanoi Rocks, whom Axl Rose has cited as the biggest influence of Guns N' Roses. The songs have also similar tone and similar use of fifths (power chords).

[@TheTurok121]

he still has almost the same style !

[@japsukka321]

Yea well this song was made 2-3 years before nightrain :) And it's not miracle that it sound like it, 'cause Izzy liked Hanoi very much ... Axl too :)

[@tracym.conley3970]

I have several AUTOGRAPHED picture discs from when the band CHERRY BOMBS played at the UPTOWN bar in uptown MPLS , that band included a few members of HANOI ROCKS & ANITA CHELLAMA (she was BILLY IDOLS girlfriend at the time)😊

[@tracym.conley3970]

😊

[@perunakauppias]

Haha, I Iike those colorful things on his hands :D You rock Michael, you make me proud to be a Finn :)

[@summersky13]

we all have to thank the ny dolls if it wasnt for them there woulndt have been hanoi!!

[@darwleg]

I thought in Green Day, but this sounds cool too !

[@dingofur69]

RIP razzle

[@antonv0612]

The Dolls were a big influence of theirs, but so were The Stones, Mott The Hoople, David Bowie, Alice Cooper, The Clash, T.Rex and many British/Finnish/American rock, punk and glam bands/artists.

[@TheDEAUXBOIS]

LOVE THE 80'S----------LILLIAN AXE

[@slackerofhell]

came here because Nikki Sixx idolized this band. i can see why.

[@recordplayr]

The glam rock movement was huge in LA in the 80s. Odd how Hanoi Rocks rocked while most LA hair band music did not rock.

[@Jupppeee]

i dont know but intro makes me feel like im in the night train (gnr)

[@Jupppeee]

intro reminds me alot about gnr nightrain

[@Pittmail88]

Oops, The Taime Down? ...sorry bout the typo.

[@squirtkiller]

This live version is a lot better than the album's version. Sometimes i don't know whether Hanoi Rocks perform live so good or their albums so suck. Maybe both. What do you people think?

[@TheTurok121]

check out vince neil's style or many other singers'. they all copied that hairstyle from mike.

[@ickysan]

You know - this is just more proof that most - if not all of - the "Glam-Metal"-poseur/losers of the 80's were all f*ckin' hacks. These guys sound a billion times better than G n'R, L.A. Guns, Jetboy, Poison or any of the other bands that were playing in L.A. back then, and I know, because I remember - I was there when they were playing around town. They should watch these videos of this amazing and influential band that wrote the book and started a million fires.

[@haplo81421]

No it's Terry Chimes. Razzle died in december 1984.

[@squirtkiller]

@ihmisvinski Not just this song. I'm sure you will agree with High School, Underwater World, Million Miles Away... Listen to live versions of these songs make me want to forget the album version of Two Steps from the Move, a very bad produced album i think

[@FinMarkkikarkki]

New info. Its Terry Chimes. If im wrong please someone tell me : D

[@AceWorldTV]

lissen to the lyric

[@WhoTheHellIsHarvy]

Yeah have to agree with you there on the song writing abilities. I think my comment was just a case of me favouring the guy from the band I like most lol

[@GothHikDarkAnGel]

@tigerfox18 Thanks :)

[@faceoffi]

@squirtkiller i dont think their album versions suck so much.. but i agree with this song..

[@Jupppeee]

everyone should know that it is terry chimes!! :D

[@kiraraandfamily]

what happen to razzle? I'm new to their music , but not the name cause my sister had few pics in her old magazine's

[@Jupppeee]

yeah i said earlier that i think that it was izzy who wrote gnr songs, cos someone said that it was slash who most talented,which is pure shit

[@Jupppeee]

@dballify yes he is :D

[@slackerofhell]

its all good man. im backing up Sixx because hes part of a band that i really like. so, we have our biases, but it aint about the people. its about the music they make. as cheesy as that sounds, haha.

[@heavymetal1110]

@bonjovigirl2011 he was actually killed in a car crash riding in vince neil's (motley crue lead singer)'s sports car, which is tragic but i guess the rock n roll way to go out lol

[@dballify]

isn't that TORY CRIMES on the drums (Terry Chimes, formerly of the Clash?)

[@metalheadneji]

You're right it's way better than greenday(I like green day but this came way before them).

[@tigerfox18]

@GothHikDarkAnGel Michael Monroe ;) thats his name.

[@jamesjordan-davies2704]

Is that Terry Chimes of The Clash on Drums?

[@lozz196]

Yes, he stood in for them when Razzle died

[@emidore]

Is there any way to get this concert on disc? They sound so much better live - especially on the Million Miles Away performance (of this concert).

[@Jupppeee]

i have readed somewhere that izzy was important song writer for gnr so, i dont really believe that slash is most talented ?? :D

[@mikamee14]

Then why are you watching the video?

[@DemonsMetalheads]

I hate to break it to the gay bashers because one should go with what they feel...It's biological. But Micheal Monoroe was married to a lady that died of cancer or something and has since remarried again. One you never judge on looks to decide gayness and who care everyone should be free too love who they love and loves them back.

[@Jupppeee]

@nancivenuk09 yeah and rolling stones the stooges etc..

[@WhoTheHellIsHarvy]

Haha yeah its true though. At the end of the day they both contributed a lot to rock.

[@Jupppeee]

who wrote gnr sogs :D i remeb that it was izzy, not sure??

[@FinMarkkikarkki]

Its not Razzle. Razzle was already dead. I dunno who he is

[@scottnffc]

No im not im know everything.

[@rantunited1607]

was this after Razzle's death?

[@antonv0612]

Stole yes, stetson no. It's called a top hat :)

[@wanawjecy]

Who's on guitar, don't tell me it's....

[@Jupppeee]

i mean that all 80' s¨hair bands are influenced by hanoi rocks

[@ivo2164]

@jroach96 OMG OMG OMG IT"S NOT SLASH OMG

[@jromasterofone]

Hey Yeah! It's Slash!! (...I'm kidding...don't reply with stupid stuff...)

[@SunshineJeff]

Mikä on ku ei voi Suomea puhua?

[@Jupppeee]

sorry who wrote gnr songs not sogs :D

[@RadicalR0nnie]

crashdiet, h.e.a.t, reckless love, diemonds, asking alexandria, etc..

[@kkpriest2112]

Yeah it is........ One of the guys they influenced killed their real drummer while under the influence, how ironic!

[@ailsa_ra]

@wanawjecy Andy McCoy & Nasty Suicide

[@SunshineJeff]

Ha! Hanoi Rocks were real glam-poseur band and their music is so so simple and unformed compare to Guns N' Roses!

[@Jupppeee]

so your wrong :P

[@emidore]

@PSYLOrocksDETROIT So, they're both gay. If you've got a problem with it, check your own head and review your sexuality. A lot of men in music are gay. Once you realize this and accept it, you won't come off as being juvenile, ignorant, and catty.

[@GalaxyRover1020]

Sadly heavy drug abuse also played a role in their demise.

[@scottnffc]

I disagree

[@BugzzBunny]

The thing is, micheal monroe is strange, without any reason my wife had to break her car to not drive over this guy in turku.. either this guy has a problem with crime or he just wants to attract attention
