They blocked this video! First time hearing Skid Row 18 and Life without the actual music :(

🤬Sony blocked this video and the audio of the song was removed. This is so annoying because there are lots of channels that have this same video but ours was singled out. 18 and Life by Skid Row. The first time we did this song with the first co-host but it got blocked so we are rolling the dice and trying again with Alexis. Burch tells the story of how he remembers exactly where he was when he first heard the song.

[@matthewvade6553]

I know exactly where I was when I first heard this song. It was April 10, 1989, Wichita, KS, the Kansas Coliseum, about 10 feet from the stage. I had no idea who Skid Row was going into the night. Turned out once I heard them playing that I had heard one of their songs, "I Remember You" on the radio a few times but had no idea who sang it. Withing 30 seconds of Sebastian unleashing his voice on an unsuspecting crowd, I knew I was going to the record store the next afternoon. (I sure miss those record stores.) My sister was also at the show, and she tagged along with me to the store the next day, but she headed for the Sebastian Bach poster, while I got the album. Their first two albums are still amongst my favorites of all time. And they are tied with Damn Yankees for the best opening acts I've seen in the 60-70 concerts I've been to. And both bands are in my top five for best sounding live performance.

[@DemonCatSpaceStar]

Funny how certain songs or albums can bring back a flood of memories I Still remember the first time I heard the album destroyer by KISS, I was nine years old (1977) and my brother wanted to talk to my parents. (We were visiting him. He’s 12 years older.) he put the headphones on me and from the opening to Detroit rock city, and looking at the image of the destroyer cover I was blown away! Been in the KISS Army since 🤘😈

[@kevinwallis2194]

I remember Layla by Derik and the Dominos. 6 people in a chevy Corvair, going around a mountain corner too fast. We hit gravel, flew off the side of the mountain, flipped at least 3 times in the air and cleared a barbwire fence, hit a tree and landed in a small creek wheels down, and the transmission broke and the motor is still running, and that song was blasting. I get chills every time i hear that song, 45 years later.

[@bbogey2477]

I remember the first time I heard 45 by Shinedown. I was 20 on a job site and we got rain delayed and I came across the radio. I never heard a voice like Brent Smith. Had the resonance of grung but with a soul. I was hooked

[@phila3884]

This song made me a Skid Row fan, despite all my best judgement back in the day. Still a fan today. All these years later, it's the songwriting and musicianship that still impress me. Oh, I remember when The Eagles "Hotel California" dropped for the first time on my local radio. Blown away.

[@RockFan89]

For me it was "You give love a bad Name" by Bon Jovi. I was 11 in 1986 hanging outside with the neighborhood kids. Someone with a walkman had the radio on. We all sat close to hear his headphones. The station had just finished playing "Somewhere Out There" (a song on animated movie American Tail) and then that lyric kicked in "Shot through the heart and you're too blame" and we were laughing and all into it. =)

[@paulsmith2516]

I saw Skid Row at Wembley Stadium supporting Guns n Roses 31/8/91 and ohhhh boy can Sebastian Bach sing live! His voice filled that massive football stadium filled with 81000 of us screaming nutters like it was a little rock club. They were BRILLIANT that day and if anyone wants to see it the Skid Row set is on YT somewhere. PLEASE check out Monkey Business and/or Slave To The Grind from their second album where they absolutely shifted up a gear or three and rocked HARD!

[@frankrossi6972]

Skid Row were BIG. I remember when they were opening for Bon Jovi on the "Slippery When Wet" tour in '86-87, and nobody at my high school was talking about Bon Jovi when the tour came to town (Houston), but everyone was raving about Skid Row.

[@bzGNR]

I remember the first time I heard 'Smokin' in the Boys Room' by Motley Crue, I was maybe 13... on summer vacation at my grandparents house. I was bored to death and just listening to an old transistor radio and bang.... this song came on. Never heard anything like it before and just like that... I was immediately inducted into the Rock N Roll fan club and forever corrupted 😂. Hey Burch... I learned to drive and got my first license driving my parents blue Aries K car. I remember the blue paint would rub right off and onto your hands... and it was a brand new car. Yes, it was a crappy car but that didnt matter at the time.

[@dustinjones8887]

I love that she's impressed with Sabastian, enough so that it sticks out more than any others. This came out when I was 17. Skid Row hit it huge as soon as they came out. Me and all my head bangin buddies had this tape. Great reaction! I remember where I was on many different songs: November Rain at my brother's apt. Stairway To Heaven in my brother's car. Cum On Feel the Noise by Quiet Riot in the street at my neighbor's house. Alone by Heart in my basement, Welcome To The Jungle in my living room watching MTV. Keep On Loving You at the skating rink. I could prob think of several more if took more time to think about it.

[@christopherking4932]

I still remember the first time I heard a song called you know you're right by nirvana. It was going to debut on MTV and I walked quickly to the video store to rent a movie but when I got back home/ I unfortunately missed it/ but my friend recorded it for me and I was blown away.

One of Skid Rows great power ballads, along with Wasted Time, I Remember You, Quicksand Jesus, and In a Darkened Room. Not the song, but I do remember where I was when I first saw the premier of the music video of Metallica's One.

[@fredfredburger5150]

I never thought of this song as a ballad, ballads are about love.

​@@fredfredburger5150Well, a power ballad than. Ballads are certainly not all about love. Check out Testament Return to Serenity (full song) and Trail of Tears if you don't know them

[@Pacrat86]

Two come to mind. Ratt - Dance and Lynch Mob - Wicked Sensation. Ratt was at a friends house in the screened-in porch and I yelled "New Ratt!".Lynch Mob was at a friends apartment. Not that it was too hard to figure out what George Lynch was gonna name his band but I heard the first note and knew it was Lynch. Radio didn't say the name until after a commercial. Drove me nuts for a few minutes.

[@stephenkinney1194]

Can only think of one song that I remember the exact moment I heard it for the first time. My college roommate and I were just chillin' in our dorm room listening to a local rock station, and the opening riff of "Thunderstruck" started playing. My roommate and I just looked at each other and said "ANGUS!" simultaneously, because there was no mistaking who we were listening to.

[@traviscrockett3640]

I was big into Metal Edge magazine as a teen. Read in an interview there that this song is about a true story Scotty snake or Rachel was reading the paper while they were taking a break in the recording and came across the story of “Ricky”. This song came right from that. Was a few years before Pearl Jam would do the same find the “Jeremy” story for that song

[@FadriqueFM]

I have clear memory of the exact moment I listened to albums: Somewhere in Time by Main, Abigail by King Diamond (this one’s so vivid), Rust in Peace by Megadeth and Keepers II by Helloween come to mind.

[@newlenmedia]

Like you Burch, I remember exactly where I was when I heard this song. At the time, I was stationed at Wildflecken, Germany. I was an MP in the Army. A Staff Sergeant in our unit had shot his wife (she survived) and then shot himself in the stomach. He was sent to the Army hospital in Frankfurt, GE. A few of the MPs in our unit were sent up there to guard him as there is not really a secure ward at the hospital. During my off hours, I'd look around for some great places to eat. The owner of the guest house where we're staying mentioned this Italian place, as he was Italian himself, just down the street. He recommended their lasagna - which to this day is the standard by which I measure any lasagna dish, it was that good. Anyway, this place had a dance floor and TVs mounted up in the walls. It was kind of weird to me. But apparently in the evenings and weekends people would come in and order pizza or whatever, have some drinks and dance. Like I said I ordered lasagna. They happened to have the European version of MTV going at the time which was cool. I'd never seen it the entire time I'd been there and had been there almost three years by this point. So, Skid Row's "Eighteen and Life" comes on. As a musician myself and still a very young man I knew how good this song was. I would later go on to buy that album, of course. So yeah, I took recall where I was when I first heard this.

[@c1ph3rpunk]

Given that it wasn’t aggravated, and charged as accidental, Ricky was released in 2020 for good behavior. He’s now a pool installer and maintainer in SoCal.

[@jackmori2634]

one song I remember the exact moment and location i first heard it was Hearts on Fire by Bryan Adams. I was out camping and on the last day right as we were closing the extended walls of the trailer and the radio was still playing but the volume was so low I could barely hear it, the only words i caught were hearts on fire. I wrote down those words so i don't forget about it, and for weeks I searched online and nothing showed up. I didn't know it was Bryan Adams until later. I searched on KZbin but nothing, and even iTunes showed the exact same results as KZbin. But one artist showed up on iTunes which didn't show up on KZbin which was Bryan Adams. When I added his name to the search terms I found it and still love the song.

When I was 11 yrs old I lost a friend in similar fashion. I'm Burch's age so this was 1981. We went to school together for 5 years but going to 5th grade we left and went to separate schools. My friend was hanging out with some older kids of ill repute. They were in the attic messing with a gun and the story was they were grabbing for the gun and it went off. Many believed the actual story was similar to this video. Something I'll never forget.

[@annmariemills1554]

I was watching General Hospital, it was the summer of 1980 and I saw a commercial for Rick Springfield singing "Jessie's Girl" I had heard the song before, but didn't know who sang it untill the commercial. I was blown away because I had a crush on Rick, finding that out made me love him even more. My first concert was Rick Springfield ON my 14th birthday!!!❤❤

My oldest son, Jesse, got serenaded by a trio of teen girls singing "I wish I WAS Jesse's girl, I want to be Jesse's girl" at his high school talent show, about made him blush to death. So glad I went to that school event.

[@arturnienartowicz7213]

The most vivid memorie of a first time are: "what's love got to do with it", "Dream on" (Aerosmith) and Layla (on the same "rock anthems" album), "Creeping Death" (Metallica), "Blood of my enemies" (Manowar), "Young girls" (Earthshaker), "Hey you" (Pink Floyd), "Youth gone wild" (came to my ears before "18 and life"). And "Wind of change" - that one actually made me sit down on the sidewalk's grassbed and weep. For "In the Ghetto" and "Don't cry Daddy" (you gotta do this one) I was fortunately at home.

[@rafalmeidas]

I also have that type of memory when it comes to smells and music. For example one of the songs I remember is You Give Love a Bad Name by Bon Jovi. I was watching MTV, top 20 program and it came on, hearing something heavier than the pop that dominated the charts, the cool video made me a Bon Jovi fan right away till today. I was at a family friends house alone in the media room, my family had moved to another city and I was there till my school term ended. The next day obviously the video was going to be at the top 20 so I set up a boom box with some cables from the speaker jack of the TV and taped it. Anyway, that's my story.

[@paulschulwitz7712]

Y’all got me thinking… the most vivid memory of me hearing a song (or in this case an entire album) brings me back to November of 1988. I got my drivers license in September, bought my first car in October then bought this cassette in November from the record store on a whim, never having heard this band before in my life. I just remembered seeing this tape and loving the album artwork for months prior. I remember ripping off the cellophane and popping the tape in my player in the parking lot of Long Ridge Mall then hearing Revolution Calling leading into Operation Mindcrime while cruising down Ridge Road. Mind. Absolutely. Blown.

[@ravensshadow2179]

A lot of 70's &80's song I remember because my grand parents and a summer home 50 miles away so many were on the way to there. Sex & candy by Marcy Playground I remember and Champagne Supernova by Oasis I remember partly because I listened to them both in the same day.

[@laurabailey1054]

I saw this song performed live in concert at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit when Skid Row opened for Bon Jovi during their New Jersey Tour in March of 1989 and then again in May of 1989 when they came back to Detroit. I still have my poster I got at the concert and the jersey. Sebastian Bach was on one of the past seasons of The Masked Singer. On Broadway he was in the musical Jeckyll and Hyde as the lead. Just an fyi Sebastian Bach is Canadian Canadian serial killer Paul Bernardo was sentenced to prison in 1994-95 and is still in prison. In prison they do have access to computers so Ricky would have had exposure to computers.

[@ScottW_USMC]

if you go check out an interview with the Professor of Rock, Sabo states that the original inspiration was his brother Rick's life after coming home from Vietnam. The writing process eventually led the song to being about an accidental murder.

We ended up listening to the entire Shout at the Devil album, with other customers either rocking out to it, or leaving because it wasn't Barbara Streisand or Madonna. * Judas Priest...in the backseat of the car, 4 of us were skipping class to head to a pool hall called "Hambones"... the girl driving said "Y'all have to hear this!

I remember the exact moment I heard Metallica for the first time. Had just moved to Texas from Seattle, I was 5 years old, and one of my uncles came to visit. Not sure what the original topic was or how it unfolded but my dad and uncle were going to CompUSA (that's how long ago this was). I wanted to go, hang out with the dudes, instead of being stuck at home with my mom and sister. We get there and it's closed because this was maybe 9 or 10 at night. We're sitting in the car in the parking lot and they're trying to figure out what to do/where to go for whatever reason. My dad asks him if he wants to listen to a CD and pulls out his big ass zip binder full of CDs and starts listing off bands/artists. The only name that stuck in my head was "Metallica". So, I sat in the back of the car just saying "Metallica, Metallica. Play Metallica" even though I had absolutely no idea what it was (even though I had probably already heard it). They finally gave in to my annoyance. Album was Ride the Lightning...opening with Fight Fire with Fire and thing going into Ride the Lightning...oh man that changed my life. To this day, it's still my favorite Metallica album and song.

He smiled and said, "I am not going to tell you because I want to rest today, but (looking dead serious from my eyes to my girl and back) just remember I am George Thorogood and I'm Bad To The Bone." I thought he was strange, but okay, sure. The next weekend I was driving east on 64 to VA Beach with my girl and the DJ says "Here is a new track that is blowing up right now, George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers with Bad To The Bone."

Did you miss "Youth Gone Wild"?? That was the first Skid Row video I ever saw. "18 and Life" was a great sophomore release, but was quickly eclipsed by "I Remember You." BTW, Sebastian and Skid Row made G'n'R their bitches when they opened for them in Charlotte in '89/90(?). Axl actually came onstage and said he "wasn't that into it." I remember having paid $25 for my ticket, which was the most I had ever paid up to that point, and thinking, "Well, you'd better GET into it, asshole!" Never had quite the same admiration for Axl after that.

I remember your other daughter(?) reaction’s on this song. Blocked videos suck. I heard recently Skid Row now has Lzzy from Halestorm as her new vocalist, Skid Row is crazy after Sebastian Bach.

One my favorite bands Harem Scarem I first heard them on the zrock radio summer of 1993 at work, the song was with a little love. But back then we didn't have google to look them up to find more out about them or even the name of the song , so I just remembered there band name for several years and when dial up internet came alive I searched their name and found the song I heard sampling other songs of there's til I found the one I heard and it's name. Also found out they had several other great albums the released.
