Cinderella is so underrated imo

[@richardstewart7324]

Word!.so good 👍

[@buffmaloney]

We were so lucky in the 80's.

[@choward874]

Yes we were!

[@lonestar5253]

Lucky too that we survived that decade all things considered.

[@matthewball2122]

1 Simple Word - Genuine!!! Rock Life - M2.H.B. 2022!

[@metalmcfly7312]

I remember buying this album "Long Cold Winter" the day it released and was instantly blown away by how much they matured musically from their debut album "Night Songs". Tom Keifer is an incredibly talented musician (lyricist, piano, lead vocals, rythym guitarist, lead guitarist, songwriter, arrangement, harmonica and much more). This band was so underrated at the time it was almost criminal.

[@corneliuscrewe8165]

Heartbreak Station even more so. It really is a shame they hit big in the hair metal era, they were so much more than that.

[@chriswildhaber35]

Agreed, and this album a classic most of their stuff in my opinion is great.

[@SuperVezzeli]

One of the greatest rock ballads ever!

[@joey22306]

Absolutely and criminally underrated

[@garyglass7406]

Still listen to them. This song is timeless.

[@jinnettajustice4787]

They dont make music like this anymore that has heart and soul and meaning

[@pauladeitch3739]

I've always loved these guys.such a talented group of musicians.loved the bluesy rock of their sound.

[@rodgertorkkola5056]

it's always been a shame that they got lumped in with the "hair metal", they were more bluesy and better than most of the "hair metal" bands

[@marywise7418]

one of the prettiest songs i have ever heard.even now all these years later it still stands up.beautiful

[@DrClawizdead]

One of the best written love songs of the 80s.

[@israelolguin1156]

Damn this brings back the 80's. Love this song. So true... Welcome to the 80's Kel! 💕

[@wheresridgeville1]

So many of the reaction channels just completely ignore hair metal and it sucks because they are missing out on a lot of fun. Thank you for doing this.

[@leedeestapleton2296]

This is my jam! Thanks for playing it! Loved Cinderella back in my middle school yrs. (still do) Tom Keifer has a new album out called Rise (it’s on Spotify) and it’s soo great! Give it a listen, if ya like that bluesy rasp of his. Songs are very raw. 🥰 After several throat surgeries, I’m so thankful he is still singing. Love you guys! Your relationship reminds me so much of me and my late hubby Chris. 💚 Keep it up! PS...Winston is a doll!

[@cami71able]

Cinderella one of the best band in the world!

[@johnbutler7704]

Hello From The U.K. A Classic Song.... It came out in 1988 From The "Long Cold Winter" Album

[@scottiejsrockrollsports5547]

One of the best bands that come out of the 80's. Great live band also!!

[@richardtaylor8595]

I saw this band in their hayday at thr Richfeild collasium which no longer exsits. They totaly blew me a way.I wish this band was still out there. Every lp was great.

[@terigomric9926]

Loved this band during their heyday. Still love their music. I would recommend the Last Mile very good song

[@thehighhopes5336]

This song takes me back to the 80s. I remember hearing this at the roller skating rink. Thanks for sharing.

[@byrnez2755]

I grew up a classic rock fan, so I never really got into much of the 80's "hair bands". But.... I find Cinderella don't get enough respect. Some of their songs (like this one and Heartbreak Station) have terrific composition, lyrics and Keifer's voice is outstanding! .

[@corneliuscrewe8165]

Absolutely agreed. First time I ever really heard them was opening for AC/DC At the Cow Palace. Blown. Away. They were really lumped into the wrong genre.

[@manuelruen]

6:35 Yup, don't take things for granted because if you get used to something and then lose it you might be pissed. Think about what you have and how easy it is to lose something that you love!

[@barndude5562]

I'm a huge Cinderella fan! Thank you so much for reacting to this! If you want to revisit them, look at the vids for Shelter Me & The More Things Change. Enjoy!! And thanks again!!

[@37434mh]

Couple other very good songs from them are “Gypsy Road,” “Heatbreak Station” and “Coming Home.”

[@alexsaucedo8032]

Great SONG off this great album. Love this jam. Thank you for sharing. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@joeldunsmore5159]

Thanks Kel and Rich this video made my day remembering getting to see The Bullet Boys, Winger, and Cinderella summer of 1989 in Tempe Arizona, they performed this song. I was 19 at the time, and its really true you really dont know what you got till its gone until this thing or that person isnt there anymore, and for me its also wondering where 31 years went

[@anneahlefeld1989]

I saw the same your in Tampa as a newlywed! Never forget it.

[@matthewschmoyer8552]

Wife saw same tour in Philadelphia & says Tom dropped from the ceiling on a platform playing the piano for this song...she reminds me every time we listen to this 😎

[@andruid5054]

despite Tom Keifer have lost his voice, he is back and sounds pretty damn good, and still looks the part (unlike a few from that era), there is aversion of this live from a cruise last year, he has still got it

[@1badsteed]

Cinderella! Loved them from the get go. When the 2nd album came out, I had just came home on leave. My step brother and I went down to the music store and got the cassette, tossed it into the player and away we went. This harmonica/dobro/slide bluesy number came on and straight into a hard rocking blast! Bad Seamstress Blues/Falling Apart At The Seams! We were blown away! "Let's go boys..."

[@carty43]

All that hair got in the way of a whole hell of a lot of talent. Wish more bands could have adapted to the changes music went though. The first three Cinderella albums were 3xPlatinum, 3xPlatinum, Platinum -- and then, grunge. Fourth and final album peaked at #178.

[@RafaelMartins-wq4bt]

I was only 18 when this came out back in 1988... Ahhhh.... the 80s! COME BACK !!!

[@larryw5429]

Tom Keifer and Cinderella was awesome.. Very underrated band!

[@lifesabeach2597]

Always brings back memories of MTV when they still played music videos

[@bigbow62]

Awesome song & amazing singer.... they kinda just snuck into the picture then.....MTV MAGIC ! Tom has that wicked growl in his voice 😆🎙Excellent reaction Kel 😇🎹 WinstonWoof... loves the growl ! I can hear Woof in the backgrond... he wants more Cinderella 🐶🎙 🔊 Nobody's Fool 🕪 🔊 Somebody Save Me 🕪 🔊 The Last Mile 🕪 🔊 Gypsy Road 🕪 A bit-O-trivia K-n-R... Gene Simmons ( KISS ) discovered Cinderella not Bon Jovi as many people think ! 🤔💡

[@pugshorty9852]

Some other great Cinderella songs: Shake Me, Nobody's Fool, Gypsy Road.

[@cl8onj388]

Pug Shorty And MY fave "Somebody Save Me". One of the best metal bands from the 80s(IMO). The lyrics in this one are really sad.

[@1badsteed]

@@cl8onj388 AMEN! Awesome song! Tossing those guitars over their shoulders! I tried that when I started playing guitar. There must be a trick because I bashed myself in the back of the head

[@pusinong5930]

Hard to find the words, Coming home, Through the rain

Condy God, “Somebody Save Me” from this comment.

[@joelwonder5362]

Late 80s in the backseat of an Oldsmobile Cutlass...her name was Michelle and she loved this song!

[@corneliuscrewe8165]

This song was a panty dropper🤘

[@markkalkwarf4520]

This band ROCKED.

[@mattbennett8100]

This is a great ballad I had the tape that had this song. Awesome 80s!!

[@scotluttrull708]

I kind of wish I was her just to see everything new again and how awesome it was the first see all those videos and bands seventies and eighties child so yeah to go back and see him all over again for the first time to be awesome

[@JosefK]

I love power ballads of 80s!!!!

[@hoosierdaddy2308]

Very very cool. Love Tom Kiefer. Such a talented guy. Saw them in 84 and 1990 live! Great stuff. Very cool. You two are jewels. 🤟💖🤟💖🤟

[@karlclemmy2054]

Classic 80s rock ballad, takes me back, they are definitely social distancing in that video😂😂 great reaction guys, glad to see you well, iam the same, missing seeing friends, socialising, it will make us appreciate it more when we can do it again, Stay Safe and Healthy Kel'n'Rich

[@villaincorp7728]

my first concert was Bon Jovi and Cinderella. my sis was there for bon jovi, i was there for cinderella

[@Briansgate]

my High School years just got brought back hard!

[@choward874]

I'm old now 47 lol but it's worth it to have lived in the greatest time of music.

[@jamesnorthup7717]

That was off the second album, actually released in '88...

[@patrickveilleux1984]

Yeah, 1988 is the time I remember it from. 84 is the wrong year!

[@primemover1416]

This is my second favorite Cinderella ballad. #1 for me is Heartbreak Station.

[@lisaanderson135]

This song came out in 1988 and I had it on repeat back then... Headbangers Ball was my jam!

[@justiceforall3973]

Awww man! I love the intro! That was truly deep and totally accurate! We need human interaction and human touch… just a great opening message guys! And I love Cinderella and this song, so it makes this reaction video so so much better! One 🌎One❤️

[@pauladeitch3739]

Also these guys were fantastic live and left everything on the stage

[@richardfeltman3018]

First song I ever learned on guitar was Cinderella’s Nobody’s Fool. They had some great songs in the 80’s.

[@pumpenheimer4570]

Had a friend in high school ask me for a recommendation for a band with a Nazareth, AC/DC, Accept kind of gravelly voice. Their first album had just dropped! Needless to say, it was just what the rocktor ordered. 🤘

[@andreadeamon6419]

My fav band still to this day. Hung out with them several times. They're great. Says it was cold as hell at that lake! Lol

[@ralphsaenzjr1136]

Look forward to your videos after a long and stressful day. You guys have a way of bringing calmness and kindness that is so awesome

[@Alberto_1965_BR]

Great react. This album is amazing!

[@stormrider430]

Great song brings back memories of my late teenage years 🙏🤟

[@GeoffreyGodshall]

My first real gf broke up with me when this song was popular. Teenage suffering in a song. What memories, like an odor or scent that brings you back. Thanks guys!

[@jasonkadlec3929]

This was huge at high school dances back when it was out. Thanks for reacting! Definitely brings me back.

[@tonycampbell4982]

That guitar solo is amazing

[@danohstoolbox]

You need to do bad seamstress blues / falling apart at the seams from Cinderella

[@ryanzeigler9763]

man i remember getting that tape! definitely a highlight

[@johnstarace8369]

Man, some Hair Metal, yes, yes, yes, it’s about time. Cinderella’s first album was a little edgier, a little more of a Metal feel. Their second and third albums take a more bluesy/rock edge that became Tom Kiefer and the bands signature sound from there on. Since I spent my 20’s living through the 80’s Metal, Hair Metal, Hard Rock world domination of music I was in absolute sheer heaven. Bands like Cinderella, Warrant, Poison, Motley Crüe, White Lion, L.A.Guns, Van Halen, Dokken, Extreme, Fastway, Firehouse, Kix, Krokus, Ratt, Slaughter, Tesla, Y&T and Zebra, (I think I got about 95% of the 80’s Hair Metal bands), made what I think was great, fun rock and roll music. Not to mention the 70’s bands that rose to higher heights during MTV’s heyday, like Aerosmith, Judas Priest, AC/DC, Blue Öyster Cult, Deep Purple, Def Leppard, Scorpions, Ozzy Osborne and ZZ Top (I know I’m missing some important bands). I loved the rock music from the 80’s. Getting back to Cinderella, I submitted a lot of suggestions on your website for Cinderella and a lot of the bands I also mentioned above. I’m hoping you’ll consider playing some of them (or a lot of them, lol). I think The Long Cold Winter album from Cinderella is probably their best album, you can’t go wrong playing anything off of that album. I’ve been doing the isolation thing and except for a little cabin fever the other day, I’m doing good, been spending a lot of time ripping my 800+ CD collection to my computer and listening to the music from them to pass the time, and playing my guitar and writing music. Keep the great reviews going, I love you guys, and remember...... \m/ Stay Metal \m/

[@williambevins]

I agree with everything you said about Cinderella except one thing. Heartbreak Station is their best album album IMO. I do love Long Cold Winter, though. Just my personal preference.

[@anneahlefeld1989]

Y&T still kicks ass!! I've seen them 3 years in a row in Illinois. Unfortunately this year was a no go.

[@jcvdo8455]

Real music!

[@billpeters9999]

Back when rockstars looked like rockstars and the music was awesome

[@robbflynn4325]

this is a really well crafted song, beautiful.

[@danjennings8618]

Tom Keifer is still recording and performing. I saw him in concert just over a month ago. He's had several operations on his throat die to his vocal cords being paralyzed. Still sounds amazing even now. Check out his solo work

[@siding8]

My girlfriend broke up with me and this song came out….extra painful! I won her back and she’s now my wife/best friend and she’s laying next to me while I’m listening to this song and thinking how horrible that time was but super happy the lesson was learned! ❤

[@Lane2268]

The first album was glam rock, Long cold Winter was Blues rock as was still climbing. This video came out in 1988, the release of long cold winter. *6 was their debut album Night Songs.

[@D1Gr8hansGraf]

Interesting fact is that this is the same lake where Clint Eastwood's High Plains Drifter was filmed. Mono Lake is located just north-east from Yosemite. Great song! Fabulous location!

[@thomaspond7161]

The ghost town shots were done at bodie state park

[@booknerd3850]

Cinderella was criminally underrated. They should’ve been up there with GNR in popularity

Finally a good band to react to. Thanks

[@tonycampbell4982]

Lead singer lives in Nashville he reminds me of the singer of CCR wrote so many songs sang lead played so many instruments. Loved Cinderella especially Hearbreak Station Album.

[@anthonymiller8131]

More 80s please!!!!

Not sure how you can be as old as you are and not have ever heard this song???

Long cold Winter...my fave!

[@D_Shem73]

It's an amazing song, and the album is awesome.

[@steverobinson8214]

Totally legit raunchy, bluesy rock and roll!!!

[@andreadeamon6419]

Long cold winter lp came out in 88. They're still my favorite band after all these years. A lot of people don't realized they released their last lp called still climbing. In the movie Wayne world you hear a song from it called hot and bothered. Have to listen for it (while they're in the club) but that's where i learned about it. Drove everyone nuts until i found answers 😁

[@jasonelliott66]

Very cool band!! I saw these guys with Winger & The Bullet Boys on the Long Cold Winter tour. I gave 10 bucks for the ticket!! The whole package cost me less than the price of a ticket in today's world..ticket, t-shirt, refreshments, meal, parking, the whole 9 for 2....can't remember which teenage, spandex wearing hottie I took to this show LOL!! Their encore was a 2 song deal with all 3 bands on stage...Jumping Jack Flash & Sweet Home Alabama...in Huntsville Alabama...they blew the place apart!!!

[@tomsalvato915]

Gypsy Road is a good one

[@williambevins]

Always liked Cinderella. Long Cold Winter and Heartbreak Station are both great classic rock albums. Never thought their glam look fit well with their music, which was real heavy and bluesy. Tom Keifer's solo album is pretty good too. He definitely is influenced by Dan McCafferty of Nazareth.

[@goofball3236]

damn i miss the 80s breaks my heart everything was so simple back then i was 19 in 86 lol lots of awesome memories

[@Kel.N.RichReactions]

I totally hear you goofball. It was pretty cool to go back to the song and to see this video again. Probably been over 25 years. Thank you so much for sharing your music with us and please keep commenting and clicking on the videos that bring you back to such special times. Much love. Rich

[@pointyguitarz]

Great band! The video was shot at Mono Lake east of the Sierra Nevada range in California. The formations are from spring deposits that are exposed due to the very low lake level at the time of the shoot. You can see the lake off in the distance as you head towards the east entrance of Yosemite National Park. The pass is gorgeous! Thank you both and I so enjoy your vids!

[@andreadeamon6419]

Don't forget electric love

[@corneliuscrewe8165]

Didn’t give these guys much thought until I saw them open for AC/DC at the Cow Palace in San Francisco in ‘88 or ‘89 (I think?😆😆). Impressed the hell out of me. Saw them about a year or two later with Tangier and Badlands when they started headlining, and Tom Keifer came out of the lightning rig on a grand piano for this song. Great times. You should do the Cinderella cover of Janis Joplin’s “Move Over.” I think it’s on compilation charity album called “Stairway to Heaven/Highway to Hell.”
