First Time Reaction to Cinderella - Shake Me

[@gregwertz2691]

Easily one of the most underrated bands, not just the 80s, but ever.

[@mikenastasi8927]

Thanks T for the reaction, glad you enjoyed it. RIP to guitarist Jeff LaBar (2021).Singer, guitarist Tom Keifer was diagnosed with paralysis of the left vocal cord. He had surgeries on his vocal cords and was forced to learn how to sing again because of the paralysis of his left cord. I saw Cinderella in 2010 open for the Scorpions and he sounded great. Saw Keifer solo in 2013 and he was great then too.

[@andreadeamon6419]

Just seen them 2 months ago. I never miss them

[@thekingcobra63]

Definitely check out "Shelter Me." My favorite song of theirs.

[@clydeotoole7663]

"Somebody Save Me" is a fantastic, hard rocking song by Cinderella (from the same album as "Shake Me"). Long Cold Winter, their second album, was more evolved and mature, and quite good, with "Gypsy Road" probably the most popular song from it.

[@GunnerSG]

PURE 80's GOLD T - this was a hellacious fun time to be a kid .... great groove... great song and personalities !!

[@mikeb36240]

"Bad Seamstress Blues/Falling Apart At The Seams" 🔥🔥🔥

[@kennethcelorio4937]

God, I miss the 80s. Greatest decade of my life. Life was 100 miles an hour everyday, back then.

[@jonfazzone5125]

PS. The ending of this Video goes right into the 1st Cinderella Video you reacted to “Nobody’s Fool”, and that Video plays right into a 3rd Video “Somebody Save Me”. More amusing lyrics. Another Cinderella Video or 2 to React to would be “Shelter Me” and “Don’t Know What You’ve Got”. All High Quality Songs

[@hmpz36911]

Shake Me is #1

[@jamiemcgovern1606]

I'm now 52 and have seen a ton of concerts in my day. Cinderella is the best live band I have ever seen!

[@FrethKindheart]

In my opinion their best album was Night Songs because they were able to capture the music of that era so perfectly, and each song had a unique sound. I bought their next two albums, hoping they would stick with their initial sound, but they went more a laid back bluesy route. That's not to say they didn't have great songs, they did, but for a fan expecting the second album to be hard-hitting, it was a departure I wasn't ready for. I don't know if they ever returned to their original form, most likely because the 90's hit and grunge took over. Therefore, I recommend primarily all of the songs on the Night Songs album because it is their 80's metal sound.

[@BrentDaniels-w4m]

I’m seeing Tom Keifer again tomorrow night. Not only an incredible singer and guitarist but as a lyricist he is terrific.

[@lancecornell9978]

Took a truckload of hairspray for that video! Gotta love the look of the 80s and rock and roll

[@hmpz36911]

Yea, it did & know as i was there! Twas their first video. Longest shoot i was ever on too. & for what? Not more than others did in 1/4 or less of the time. We got locked in too! All were pissed, band included! Sadly, they were not a hairspray band long before this- record lables-smh!

[@gerardcote8391]

Saw them twice, one they Opened for Def Leppard on their Hysteria tour and the Second time was for the Long Cold Winter tour, where they headlined. They were awesome both times.

[@dvaderwasframed]

They put on a great show. I saw them twice on this tour. The opened up for Bon Jovi and opened for David Lee Roth. I was 16 at the time. Growing up in the 80s was awesome!

[@bobbyackley8456]

I was18 when I got out of high school in 1986 the 80s were the best years of my life the music was great sports were best buddies were white and black and we all loved this kind of music not like it is now

[@joecat70]

Had 6 girls and another 4 guys besides me piled in my 1980 Toyota Celica convertible to go to an autograph session at a record store with Cinderella. Then went to see them open for David Lee Roth on his first solo tour. They were great guys in person, and blew the roof off the place live Tom Keifer has one of the best voices live there is. That concert is right at the top of my list of all time greats.

[@gabem6863]

Same concert, different city! Liked them better than DLR.

[@austinking2k]

Cinderella and DLR on the Eat Em & Smile tour, I’m jealous bro! 23 so I never got to experience these guys primes

[@calseeor]

I love watching you react to our beloved 80's party/glam music. You seem to "get it" every time. This music was all about being young and having fun and there isn't anything more fun than shaking all night long. :) I've seen Cinderella a couple of times back in the day, and they were just as amazing as you would think they were.

[@gregstricklin8837]

Must underrated band of the 80's

I agree and I would also add Tesla to that list😊

[@goldenruletv7301]

Awesome times back then. Cinderella has some cool bangers.

I'm looking forward to Gypsy road and the rest of their Blues influence. Cinderella were SO much more than a hair-metal band. Tom is a legend and if you get a chance watch them live in Detroit

Saw Tom at the Token last time he was there! He still sounds amazing!

[@ericv181]

“Somebody save me” rocks

[@R.POWELL]

Hey T, their song "DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU GOT TILL IT'S GONE" is another good one !! It's a ballad but it's a great song nonetheless. It did very well on the charts too !! 👍🏻💛🌼

[@georgeyandell323]

The song should have been named "F&$K Me" lol

[@TheAdventuresofTNT]

Yes! I picked that up!

[@ryant3600]

I was lucky enough to see Cinderella live quite a few times over their 3 decades of playing. They were one of the best live shows I ever saw, always consistent. I've seen a lot of live shows since the early 80's and these guys were just a great live, high energy, talented live band.. Never disappointed me.

Cinderella, Winger, and The Bulletboys was my first ever Rock concert. Bulletboys opened and were ok. Winger was pretty good as the 2nd act. Cinderella was awesome. Was the Long Cold Winter tour.

When this Album was released Tom moved into my Neighborhood... He was such a good dude!!

[@robertfitterman3777]

Personally I was into classic metal back in the day, but the hair or glam metal caught my ear and became a favorite of mine. Cinderella was without a doubt one of the best of the genre. They were mostly Tom Keifer and the rest, as far as I was concerned. I know he is touring with his own self-named band now and sounds great! Would love to hear you react to more of their songs.

[@jenniferandrews1917]

One of their best songs, imo. MORE COWBELL!

[@danielpappathopoulos4881]

How were they live? They were larger than life. They were living, breathing rock stars. They were simply incredible. RIP Jeff LaBarr.

[@chrismoody9855]

Your reaction is great. Yeah Cinderella is/was a GREAT band, definitely one of my favorite 80’s bands. And this song is a powerhouse. Maybe check out Make Your Own Way off of Heartbreak Station.

[@danielle4190]

When I was a child I couldn't go to the concerts of course but many years later a lot of Hair Metal bands including but not limited to Cinderella, Poison, Faster Pussycat starting doing concerts again and I was right there. The lead singer was having a hard time as he has been through vocal surgery but it was a great concert.

Tom Kiefer is criminally underrated. Great vocalist, songwriter and musician.

[@MotoNomad350]

I saw Cinderella open for Bon Jovi at the Spectrum in Philadelphia in 1987. They were such a tight band live, they sounded just like the record. Incredibly solid pros.

[@hmpz36911]

Ah someone else from/near Philly! Knew them & many area bands, later worked with many more! Twas the greatest time to grow up! I am up front in this video, & many others. Am next to Erik (B) & Have my spiked cuff on🤘. My friend was dating Jeff. I was at the show that Jon Bon Jovi (who we also knew) first saw them & offered to help them. Back when they were just a jeans & t-shirt Rock band! So were Teeze, who were AMAZING! Lables were pushing for Glam types. I don't think they gave in so much to be called Glam (& for those who use the "hair" KNOW tis a y2k lable that was twisted! Dee Snider started the term to lump all the LONG HAIRED METAL together! NOT A GLAM ONLY REFERENCE!) That being said- There are many great bands we had from the area. Bon Jovi was one of the firsts of that ilk to take off. So many from Punk & Thrash to mention, Ramones, Misfits, Mentors, Deadly Blessing, Blood Feast, Anvil Bitch, Faith Or Fear, WrathChild, Non-Fiction ETC- More for another time. Anyways, i still enjoy his early stuff most. Like others, later stuff is okay but just lacking some of the heart & hungriness the first albums had, which is extremely common. White Lion was the best & so under-rated! Again, not Glam! No makeup, hairspray & glitter! Jeans & t-shirt Brooklyn boys mostly. Mike is Danish. & All my Thrasher friends i drug to see them wound up loving them! Skid Row, Trixter, Slaughter & others also not Glam yet falsely thrown in thus looked down on too much. All need to be explored more. Musical Journeys are endless! Enjoy! @The Adventures Of TNT Deeper dive nites?

[@connerturner5856]

You definitely have to check out their song Night Songs.

[@jamiemcgovern1606]

I'm 51 and an 80's kid. I've been to lots of concerts and Cinderella was the best group I've ever seen live!

[@greghaynes2603]

Yeah they do put on one hell of a show they were getting ready to do Don't Know what you got till it's gone and a white baby grand piano was lowered from the ceiling. Mostly it's just a high energy show. You need to go ahead and check out Somebody Save Me. Gypsy Road, Bad Seamstress Blue Falling apart at the Seamstress If you don't like it. I think you will really like those. Their shows were high energy not a whole lot of gimmicks just an extremely tight band.

I went and seen them open up for Bon Jovi in May,1987..Bon Jovi was having their Slippery When Wet tour and Cinderella was just coming out and singing off their Night Songs album! They were awesome! Talk about getting the party started,they did just that. One funny thing though was Tom Keifer (lead singer) came back on for an encore with Bon Jovi and he was so drunk he could hardly stand up much less sing,lol..please check out more esp,from this album(my fave) Somebody Save Me..Keep On Rockin`

Tom Keifer is a seriously under rated musician. Saw Cinderella live late (probably about 12 years ago) . They were fantastic live. Besides singing lead, Tom also played lead guitar on most songs, piano, Saxophone, and mouth harp.

[@thechiefsway2618]

There is a documentary out there on YT about Tom Keifer the singer. He actually lost his voice and couldn't sing. He rehabilitated for years and is still performing.

[@hellscornalien8286]

I saw Cinderella in 89 in Montreal and they were amazing. They had one of the best saxophone solos I've ever seen. It went for about 20 minutes. They were highly underrated although they did go platinum.

[@curtiswright311]

I saw them open for AC/DC in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1988. Maybe the best opening act I've ever seen. Also, according to Cinderella, they always loved Little Rock because the first time they were here, the fans were so wild outside the coliseum they almost tipped their tour bus over with their bare hands! Later on, they actually recorded a live E.P. in Little Rock. It's called "Live Train to Heartbreak Station". It's an import from Japan, but it's very cool.
