Origin of the song in Mark Slaughter's own words. “That song was written about a girlfriend who I went to high school with. I remember I came back from touring and couldn’t get a hold of her. So I asked a friend and he told me he hadn’t seen her. The next thing I know, he calls me back with the news that she had passed away and the funeral was the next day. It was one of those surreal moments. I went to her funeral and it inspired me to write a song about letting go. There’s a real sense of composure in going through those life events that I’m always very conscious of in my music. Seeing what it does for other people is why I continue to write.”

[@johnkirkman2849]

Always could relate to this song. Played it at my wife's funeral 3 years ago. Wasn't a dry eye in the house. The song fit our lives. Was the best 35 years I could ask for. Our favorite song.

[@staciesrunway6804]

at the end of the song he whispers "divine order of his" mark slaughter always likes to put a little hidden somethin in his songs.. super love this song. so beautiful

[@chriso6719]

The song the fans were singing at the beginning is Slaughter's biggest song, Up All Night

[@ratoneJR]

Imagine being in your 20's in the 1980's. Power ballads were everywhere on the radio. Luckily, I was born in '62. Truly, the 80's were the best time for music. I just lucked out.

[@ralfuz777]

One of my friends plays for Slaughter. Not only are they talented but they’re also great human beings; excellent choice!!

[@joeybee1914]

🎶❤️👍

[@magicpumpkin3]

One of the best bands of that time ...amazing band that I still listen to.

[@paleridersteelhorse4923]

Wasn't this also a tribute to " Amelia Airheardt "?

[@gloryn4394]

Please ask your friend to tell Mark he's welcome to come and live on my farm in Maine with me, I'll knit him wool socks and roast him a chicken. ❣️😂

[@deannemckee5081]

Mark is the best of humans! I have known him all my life.

There truly is nothing like the 80s hair bands!!!!! Love seeing people going WAY back!! Thanks for sharing

Mark Slaughter very underrated singer!! Great 80’s !!! Awesome reaction!!! Rock on!

[@amygoodson-catlady]

Mark Slaughter is a natural mimic. In addition to his athletic vocal singing, he also does amazing impressions, and currently works for the Cartoon Network providing voices for many characters.

[@julieford8788]

Great choice! Love his voice. You might like Kix singing Don’t close your eyes. Another amazing voice. 🤘🏻🤘🏻💙

[@andylafferty3782]

Baltimore’s one and only Kix. God remember them and Hammerjacks.

[@AuntieNita74]

Just heard that song on the hair nation station other day and i turned it up n blasted it. Had not heard it in long while.

[@susanconstable2113]

I saw kix in the early 80s. I had their autographs on the album. Wow love that song

[@dragonriders729]

One of the most beautiful songs about grief I know of. Hardest part is knowing when it's time to let go. Always remembering, but moving on. 🙏♥️

[@lisanelson6073]

I had this song played at my daughter’s funeral…….. the part “then I turn to look and find that you’re not there” makes my cry every time!

[@robertcoulton9536]

So sorry for your loss

That just sucks a lot. 😢 stay strong!

I love watching reactions to this song. When his voice changes at the pre-chorus the looks on your faces was awesome. Nobody expects that change...

[@marcieharreld286]

This song has given me so much peace.....my son died last year. Its such a beautifully peaceful song!! It makes something so incredibly heartbreaking feel not so sad!!! 💔💔🎶🎼🎵🥁🎙🎸🎤🤘

The world needs a dose of the eighties when I was a young folk to calm everyone down! Music is the vehicle we all can get a ride on! Great reaction!

[@ajruther67]

I agree!

[@tiacalhoun3841]

Please please please do “Don’t know what you got til it’s gone” by Cinderella!!!!! His voice is AMAZING as well

[@chriswildhaber35]

Agreed. All Cinderella is great music.

[@sprinkle4k]

YAASS!!!

[@markwillis675]

Another one of those 80s bands that had a few great songs then faded out. Glad someone is showing then some love. Try some GREAT WHITE, BULLET BOYS, WHITE LION, WINGER & DANGEROUS TOYS.

[@patrickhollis5332]

Nothing like those 70’s to early 90’s bands

[@ckobo84]

Those hair medal bands didn't fade out, they were FORCED out. Same thing happened a decade earlier to the Bee Gees, one of the most talented groups of all time.

[@jeffreyglenellen1188]

Dangerous Toys-Best of Friends

[@davidgrover8805]

His voice is almost as pretty as he is.

Ikr....I want his hair 😊

[@jeanniemetiva6745]

"I'LL never let you go" by Steelheart is amazing also....I'll drop the link....

[@jeanniemetiva6745]

Oh wait.... I just remembered you did that and Mel was absolutely amazed by his voice!!

[@lovejen01]

That is a great song.

[@marvelharris9540]

blas's drum production on this is stellar... even by today's standards

[@AaronOrtega]

Love analog recording, way better than digital. You can feel the rhythm section in 80s rock recordings. Rock on!!!

I played this song at my fiance funeral 15 years ago it still brings tears to my eyes when I hear it

Slaughter - up all night

[@peterharder279]

And to think Mark used to give guitar lessons before someone heard him sing and ended up bein the singer for The Vinnie Vincent Invasion. So underrated. His power, emotion, control. This song was written for a girlfriend he found out passed away while he was on the road. He asked a friend about her and he said he hasn't seen her for awhile then called Mark back with the news of her passing and the funeral was the next day.

[@billymatthews7623]

Up all night is another great song. It’s a powerful rock anthem

[@glennmacrae8107]

High school grad 1982. We cruising with this music every weekend. Awesome !!

When he says 'the pain' you can feel that gut wrenching grief that this guy is feeling. You two really felt the song, great reaction

[@jasonhawkes5051]

Bless you guys for this one. Been a long time, but I played this at my wife's funeral it was one of her favorite songs. 💕💕💕💕. Much love

[@dizzylizzybeth]

Great song!! I have met these guys a couple of times. A few years back the guitarist Tim Kelly died in a horrible wreck😢 all of their fans were mourning. I miss Tim!!

[@sprinkle4k]

Same! They still celebrate Tim’s bday every year. Such an amazing group of guys!

I had the pleasure to know lead singer Mark Slaughter prior to the group, we sang in high school choir together in Las Vegas. He is an amazing person and WOW !!! what a voice, to sit next to him to hear his twice a day in class, he was our only natural tenor, something some fans don't know is he sang in a barbershop quartet with myself and 2 other members of the schools men's choir and competed in All State Choir in 1981, I always loved his ballads.

[@laurenpeck3609]

Love!!!!

[@jerrycongleton583]

Just seen these guys here in st.louis back in August... hell of a show and still sound great !

This might be the best power ballad of all time. I’m not a glam punk fan, really, but for me it’s this or Don’t Know What You Got (til it’s gone)

Saw Slaughter live with Dokken, Warrant and Alice Cooper in 97. Amazing show.

Got to meet Tim Kelly (the lead guitarist in the video) at a random guitar store back in the day. Really nice guy....RIP

[@bry8784]

OMG, if you liked this plz plz give Cinderella a listen to. Another great musical band that never got the credit they deserved

[@craighenry2351]

Thanks for doing this one. This song has always been one I come back to. It put Slaughter on the map. The band blew up big in the late 80’s and early 90’s, plateaued for awhile and then plummeted after the death (Car accident) of their lead guitarist. Mark Slaughter has one of the great voices ever, and, even though I love it, I often forget just how good he is. If you want another great song of his to review, check out Days Gone By. The song theme is very similar lyrically as well as musically.

[@sbenoit540]

Best reaction I' ve seen

[@yolandabrooksqueenofsevens]

Yass y’all this was my jam I was very young when this came out 🔥🔥🔥

[@ajruther67]

It's a bittersweet song of losing a loved one. When a friend in the Southern California Metal Family Tribute Scene in 2016 went missing, then we all found out she had passed away. One of the guys made a memorial video of her at the tribute gigs. That person asked me what would be a good song for the video. This song immediately popped in my head. He said, It's Perfect!

[@pittsburghsux75]

My first love was hit by train this song was on my playlist playin when i found out

[@missshirley9893]

I will say it for the millionth time...I feel bad for Antonella who didn't grow up in the 80's. We are truly blessed

[@jamesfranklyn5312]

i drove a truck for 31 yrs....while out in the desert making my way back to vegas...i hear a bulletin come over the radio saying tim kelly died from the band slaughter...he died on state route 96....a road i was on just 2 hours earlier leaving kingman arizona....by the time the news came out, the local radio station made a mixed tape of the song fly to the angels with the newscast of this song and the reporter coming in on the breaks...it was eerie and innovative at the time but sad overall.....growing up at 12 to 20 my best friend was named tim kelly.....

[@jovik5119]

I lost my girl to Cancer and this song sums it up. Giant. I'll see you in my dreams. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

[@mariainman3618]

❤️❤️.... many many rock stars have amazing voices not only do they scream at the rock songs but there's so many amazing ballads like this one out there...... i'm sure you will get many more suggestions if you continue reacting to rock videos..... I love ALL But the videos you react to especially some of the older stuff from the 70s and 80s

Their guitarist Tim Kelly died in a horrific car accident, hit by a Semi. Knowling Slaughters music as well as I do, there are a few songs that I imagine were incredibly difficult to get through, their first show after he passed, this being one of them.
