[@Johnnyjonas274]

When a dude gets out of a chopper wearing a leopard skin jumpsuit, you know that shit is about to go down 😎 😆😆

[@f7fighter2]

Good one !

[@cherienotcherry9131]

I graduated high school in '83 and this song was blasting from my car speakers that whole summer. Brings back lots of great memories for me of that time. Thanks so much for this reaction. I love y'alls channel, keep up the good work

[@laudanum669]

[@GregPappasJr]

[@Johnnyjonas274]

Me too! Riding around in a ten year old early 70s Monte Carlo with friends listening to this song 👍

[@kerrijohnson2303]

I graduated in 86 and we were still rocking it a lot!

[@cherienotcherry9131]

@@laudanum669 Thank goodness there were no cell phones to document the debauchery that was going on back then 😆

[@genelancaster630]

The funny thing is he plays all the instruments in the studio and when he goes on tours he has to hire a band to play with him

[@bencolquitt7828]

WOW!!! I remember this group back in 1981,1982 I was nineteen win this song came out. I think they had one more hit song great reaction guys and really good song. might like - [ Lee Michales - do you know what I mean ]-[The ozark mountain dare devils - Jackie Blue - If you wanna get to heaven]

[@savannahday3178]

Holy shit didn't see all your comment! YES Jackie Blue "Ooh oh Jackie Blue lives her life from inside of a room makes you think that her life is a drag ooh Jackie what fun you have had!" LOVE IT!

[@kerrijohnson2303]

Aldo Nova (that’s the lead singers name), is in his mid 60’s and has a video of him a year or two ago rocking this song here on KZbin! He still kills it!

[@1crazyblondie]

Wow! This was definitely a song that was playing on everyone's car radio's in high school back in my day! ! 💕✌

[@elzieb8387]

take me back to 1982, ahh to be 16 again what fun times..

[@cindygarland3851]

❤❤❤ I LOVE THIS GROUP

[@Renkk17]

Aldo Nova is Italian Canadian from Ontario friends with John Bon Jovi and helped Bon Jovi get his start with his first album!

[@denislaferriere2693]

Hes from Montréal. Québec.not from Ontario...

[@quincee3376]

Montreal.

[@quincee3376]

Montreal's Aldo Nova! This song is awesome. Great choice!

[@jonrynearson31]

Hell yeah, i remember when this video was on MTV and I bought the tape brand new as soon as it was released. I'm glad you kids enjoyed it.

[@R.POWELL]

💗 this song !!! Turn it up loud in the car in my day !! 👍

[@jamesmadison6650]

I am 51 years old and I played this song in my high school talent show with my band and we won ! I’ve known this song so long, but I love seeing people who heard it for the first time. I’m almost jealous, lol that feeling of hearing a song for like this for the first time ! Lol enjoy your channel

[@yolandabrooksqueenofsevens]

Omg 🔥🔥🔥I love this song and him I was 12 when it came out ❤

[@bridgettswanger461]

He was the first one I ever seen in concert when I was a teenager and my dad made sure I went

[@kingsnake23]

Kick ass song isn't it? 🤘

[@bostonvair]

Thank G-d for Canada in the early 1980s for providing us with some of the coolest hard rock of the era. Some great hard rockin' songs from Canadian bands from this era: Red Rider "Lunatic Fringe," Triumph "Fight the Good Fight," Vandenberg "Burning Heart" and Helix "Heavy Metal Love."

[@jannigirl]

Love Love Love, so happy you reacted to Aldo!!!

[@jeffreymitchell7969]

Also Nova played every instrument and did all vocals on all his albums

[@kevinmartin9732]

This song started my sophomore year off in high school!! 1982

[@tracymurray5935]

Ahhhhh, the good ol days.❤️🇺🇲☮️

[@samsonau8205]

The song came out during my French exchange in Quebec City. I had it playing on the ghetto blaster walking around the neighborhoods at night with my counterparts.

[@Unclesmokey314]

I was in elementary school when this dropped. my oldest brother had this cranked to 11 all the time!

[@Renkk17]

Aldo Nova - Foolin Yourself - Ball and Chain

[@ajruther67]

Love this song!

[@mariainman3618]

❤️.... keep doing rock

[@cdfdesantis699]

Dimly lit, smoky club, expensive drinks, too salty snacks, & this song blasting through the system - "the fantasy life".

[@garycallan7384]

The album Aldo Nova is great

[@jordan390a]

Reminds me of Montreal in the 80's and early 90's....!

[@surlechapeau]

Shawn & Mel, I remember his name, but not his music. He rocks!! Apparently he had 2 more top 20 hits on the US Mainstream Rock chart.

[@boothstreetboy]

Picked up the vinyl one day at a secondhand record shop because I thought the album cover looked silly. Never expected this to be one of my favorite rock albums ever 🔥

[@nitro_001newman2]

That song is a forgotten banger(not me), and Aldo Nova is one of the coolest names imo. Actually people forget how good Aldo Nova was and is, because he’s back after 20 or so years.

[@SincityRocker60]

Also Nova was a bad ass rocker!!! Blast it loud!!!

[@pwc7475]

Bit of background here, the man he worked with on his early albums was named Bon jovi, guess his uncle. Songs livin' on a prayer, monkey on your back, fantasy all come from the same people

[@jamesmadison6650]

It was the keys and the guitar making the sound of the begging lead.

[@Mikey_Sea]

Good tune!

[@BRENDAJASON1]

Always loved the glitch in the video. At moments makes ya think some might be a hologram

[@laudanum669]

Check out a song by the band LOUDNESS "Crazy Nights" from 1985. They are a Heavy Metal Japanese band (They sing in English). They were big in the states for a while and the song rocks the video is on YT. THANKS!!

[@terriertz5134]

Was jammin' to this in Junior High School. Good God, I'm old.

[@Johnnyjonas274]

I was jamming to it my senior year in high school. I’m even older 😭😭

[@terriertz5134]

[@JClaus1221]

You know when a dude is rocking leopard skin pants and white boots, he obviously is going to have a Les Paul with a ray gun built in.

[@markgallagher8129]

The epitome of the 80s.

[@bryanforis1839]

Canadian metal band good 👍 song

[@jeffreymitchell7969]

It was both. Keyboard and guitar.

[@markr.devereux3385]

The air drums had to come out!!! Love this track

[@ajruther67]

Mel, you are right, keyboard/synthesizer made that sound you are inquiring about.

[@saltypepper6526]

😁✌️🎶

[@neilschoenthal594]

Try this Canadian band called Harequin and the song is Thinking of you

[@DonaldStrain-x6t]

He is from Canada

[@garytom1935]

Kicking song had it turn up in my car, awesome jam yeah 🤘😆🤘

[@kennygriggs2334]

Finally

[@hotbloodedtexn]

This was definitely the best song on the album but that's not to say that it was the only one. Hot Love and Ball & Chain were pretty great too, especially Hot Love.

[@Montey15]

Check out the album "project aldo nova" actually a kick ass album.

[@shaun_septembersaid186]

Gowan " Moonlight desires"

[@michaelnicholas2417]

Youre wrong, its the guitar making that sound. The keyboard is in the background playing the staccato 'bon jovi-ish' line.

[@martinsv9183]

"Monkey On Your Back" next.

[@martinmulcahey1618]

For Pride month may want to check out "Bronski Beat (Jimmy Somerville) - Smalltown Boy" great message & video, fantastic voice, along with disco danceability and 80s vibe.

[@DonaldStrain-x6t]

How many times I said his name is Aldo Nova

[@AJ-bd2qk]

Please check out monkey on your back by Aldo Nova

[@jimthomas1989]

We's been listin to raps music all ours Lifs , Den we heards real musik I heard all these songs 40 years ago before you were born , and we don't need your input on whether you think it is good or not , we already knew they were " GREAT "

[@centuryrox]

Hey guys, any chance you can raise the volume on your microphone? The music volume is perfect, but your voices are way too low. Anyway, I spent many nights cruising around the Baltimore area in the early 80s with this song blasting out my car windows!

[@davehenley9980]

I can't hear you.

[@Unclesmokey314]

Check out "I Could Be Good For You" by 707... You're Welcome

[@D-Tenebros]

Dude is a skilled instrumentalist, but also an art thief.. he stole this entire song from "Jane" by Jefferson Starship, which dropped a couple years prior.

[@thadonis.]

Rips off Dazed and Confused big Time.

[@cowboypatriot1200]

Love your videos but your voices sound like you are in a hall way or a bathroom stall , can barely hear you . I can hear the music videos just fine though . His 1st name is pronounced Al-do as in Al Bundy not Alldo .

MTV days, cool t-shirt 👕🤘😎👍
