Definitely an anthem song to those of us who lived it... I can't even begin to tell you two how awesome the 80's were and how much I miss it... It was a really cool time to be a kid... Keep up the good work!!

“40 years later, an instant classic.” I feel so old. 😁

Every hair band had that one ballad. The Crue knocked it out of the park with this one

As a former Navy Veteran I have great memories of this song playing all over the ship at the end of our 6 month deployments in the late 80's. We were finally heading home Baby!

I think Brad has found his 80's sound with the power ballad. He & Lex, no surprise, loved this live stream. A long list of songs from the 70's & 80's that should be to your liking.

Always thought Mick Mars was the coolest guy in the band. Dude wrote some great iconic riffs and killer leads 🤘

The single greatest power ballad of them all. The solo still makes me cry with tears of pure joy every time I hear it. The song is about life on the road (touring) and then going home.

They played this video so much on MTV back in the day.

A long time ago I served in the Navy. I played lead guitar in a little band that we had aboard ship. We had been on deployment for six months...we were finally headed home. The Captain allowed the crew to have a "steel beach" picnic on the flight deck, basically hot dogs/burgers, etc. My little band was the entertainment. Somewhere I have a video of one of my fondest memories of my time at sea: We've been gone from home for so long. We are all worn out after a long deployment. The band is playing this song. As the distant horizon rises and falls as the ship rocks on the ocean swells, I look out at the faces of the ship's crew...my shipmates...and see the same heartfelt LONGING for home on every face. It was...beautiful.

I am 63 and I was blessed to witness all this awesome music - Mick Mars kills this solo I mean KILLS IT!

Hot Tub Time Machine does this song justice, when Lou is in his garage air drumming along while his garage fills up with fumes- what a poetic way to die.

“No, it’s over” …that’s how I used to feel every time I listened to this song. I’m glad you guys enjoyed it!

My son and his band did this song in a talent show contest in high school.... RIP my son.. I miss you❤

The only video retired by Dial MTV due to be requested so much that it was the top song on the countdown for months

Saw them 3 times in the 80s. Wild concerts. Girls in black mini dresses everywhere.

Brad is really digging these 80's metal tracks lol.🤟🔥

Back when this song came out MTV had a daily show with the top 10 most requested, basically just like TRL in the 90's. Home Sweet Home was #1 for so long that MTV finally decided it was ineligible for the list and retired it. I remember the day I came home from school to see if it was still number one and it wasn't even on the list. I was shocked then they said what they did.

I’m kind of jealous that I don’t get to experience these songs for the first time like you guys do. Another great reaction. Keep em coming!

The official music video is definitely worth watching 🤘

I saw this tour in 1985 and it was my first concert, 3rd row. Set in the arena parking lot the entire night before tickets went on sale and paid $20 for the tickets at the box office. This was an encore song and near the end of it the crowd actually drowned out the band. It was a fucking incredible experience. The Tulsa World had a story about it the next day.

This was on MTV pretty much every twenty minutes for months on end in 1985.

“ take me to your heart . Feel me in your bones “ what a beautiful lyric ❤️

I think Mick Mars uses his tone to express his pain from his condition it is so bone chilling

I miss the 80s! Great reaction it was such an awesome time to be alive! I just turned 50 and still listen to the hair bands!

This ballad was written about being on the road night after night, but longing to get home.

Anyone seeing Rob Corrdry singing this at the end of "Hot tub time machine"? lol Motley Lou!!

Every time I hear this song it reminds me of playing foosball at the roller rink during an all night skate. Heavy cigarette smoke hanging over the table with the smell of Jack Daniels all around and the sound of the ball smacking the back of the goal. Man, the good ol’ days 🤘🏼

I first heard this song in the barracks the night before I came home from a year long tour in South Korea. The barracks was packed. All ranks from private (me) to 1st sergeant. And all races and music tastes. Everyone got quiet when this came on. Because we were going home sweet home

You guys need to watch "The Dirt". It's a movie that came out 2 years ago about their career in the 80's

Haven’t watched you guys for a minute and during the solo it appears brad has evolved in how he moves to rock 😁awesome

This video was #1 on MTV like forever. Remember when they played music videos? Great tune!!!! Love you guys. Rock on Lex🤟

I did 2 straight tours overseas without a trip home. When I was retuning to the states in 1986 this was my anthem. Actually, it was an anthem of many military at the time when they were returning to the states.

Motley Crue always reminds me of my oldest sister. This was totally her thing. R.I.P., Christy. 💗

Still, to this day, one of my all time favorite songs of any genre...

This was a song we listened to while deployed in the Persian Gulf when it was time to return to the States back when Motley Crue was at their peak.

When I drove truck and was out for days and days this song hit the sweet spot when I crossed my city limits knowing I'd be with my sweetheart soon. How sweet it is to see your city limit sign after being gone so long.

I saw them twice in '87 when I was just 17 l🤦🏻‍♀️ on the Girls, Girls, Girls tour and they always put on a great live show back then 🥰🤘🏻

You have to watch the actual video when you get the chance, it will explain everything to you (for Brad) and if you think you were in a trance (Lex) it will draw you in even deeper...

Now recently when I hear this song it always reminds me of the movie Hot Tub Time Machine at the ending 😁

There's nothing better than watching Lex react to a nasty guitar solo that has some stink on it 🤘

This is by far my favorite rock ballad...not too syrupy, it's still rocking. It was and is still extremely popular.

This song was always in my head when I was returning to my wife and kids from numerous Deployments

"Theater of Pain" was a fitting title for the album. And I'm sure Lex gets the vibe and the reference to theater.

This is by far Vince Neil's best vocal performance ever.

I'll never forget seeing them for this tour. Some of the best times of my life.

Back when MTV showed music videos this was on MTV for months as the favorite by fans

This video which a great concert video came out about 3 days before I saw them in Portland Oregon. What a concert. They never disappointed.

Wow, whoever typed those lyrics did horribly in a couple places, most notably "nothing keeps me together at the streets".

Putting out some real bangers today! Grew up on this stuff. Love it.

These 2 rock man👊 Why is it so satisfying watching someone else reacting to a song from back in my day?✌

You guys have now got to watch the official video. It captures the very feel of being at a rock concert while a Ballad played during the 80`s. When this song was released I was in Jr High School and MTV was all about music back then. They use to have the top 10 videos of the day, and this was the longest running number 1 video, I think it still holds today. It must have lasted for months. I knew if I went straight home without screwing off along the way I'd make it to see the number 1, Home Sweet Home. One day I ran to the nearest store to purchase the Hit Parader Magazine because the lyrics were in that months issue, I had to make sure I was singing the proper lyrics. I still made it hoe that day to watch the video as well. Them were great days to be alive!

Learned 2 sleep to their music in the mid 80's in Germany. Love their lullabies.

Not a huge Motley Crue fan, but this is easily their best song. Love it.

THE power ballad that started it all for the 80s metal bands

My absolute favorite song of Motley Crue, I used to listen to it on a loop sometimes.

My cool Mom (84yrs old now) Dropped me off when i was 12 to this concert. Portland, OR. It was so amazing! (theater of pain)

I love watching you guys work. I hadn't thought about this one in years. Thank you both SO much for the entertaining trip down memory lane.

I was 12 when I got this album… this wasy favourite song I played over and over and over…

I would listen to this song when I was in the Navy and pulling back into San Diego after being out to sea on an Aircraft Carrier.

You guys are the best! I just love watching you react to classic rock legendary music for the first time. Just fantastic. Lex ... you have an and old school rock & roll soul and your face just lights up especially when the guitars start wailing. Keep em coming!

Power ballads were a must back in the day. Great times. Should do Steelheart next for sure

Great song to get lost in the sounds of.. Theater of Pain--first vinyl album I bought with my own money. Still got it and still listen to it.

Awesome song!! Lex I love those lil faces you make when you get into a song!!

When I was in the Army and was coming home from a deployment I would listen to music on the plane. "Home Sweet Home" was always the last song I would listen to before touch down. I always really like the song but after my time in the Army it has a very special place in my heart and always makes me a little emotional when I hear it. On a lighter note if you watch movies in your spare time and like comedies, the song "Home Sweet Home" plays a prominent role in the movie "Hot Tub Time Machine". It is a movie about traveling back to the 80's and it s hilarious.

Play this everytime I visit the fam back home.

I was in hospital over 200 miles from home when this song was released. I was given a maximum of 2 years to live and hearing this song made my mind up and I left and went home to die. Still alive and kicking today. Never forgot this song and what it meant to me.

My buddies in Germany had this played for me when I went back to the world! Tore me up! Loved it!

This song came out while I was in the Marine Corps, stationed in Hawaii, we deployed to the far east for 6 months. The time came when it was time to get back to the islands. One of my friends had a boom box and cranked this song up. The whole plane sang it, get chills every time I hear it. You guys are great btw.

I've been waiting for you guys to hear this one. My favorite song from the CRüE

I absolutely love watching someone so young, get into the music that I listened to and loved ever since

If I were forced to choose one song to show the awesomeness of the 80s it would be this

White tuxedos, white piano, and thousands of cigarette lighters floating above everyone's heads...this was so great in concert.

Their play list during this journey just expanded in so many different directions

Lex is right, this is one of those songs that should be longer. This is an excellent song!

What a great time to be a teenager. I'm so glad I got to experience the 80's. Motley Crue is my favorite band. Still love this music.

Lex, love your reactions! You really get into the music, where Brad does the side to side sway for all songs! Brad, you gotta show more! Lex, keep up the emotions, love it!

After being away from my home (home town) for over 32 years, it's great to be back home. Home Sweet Home

Lovin' the power ballad reactions. My fave is the scorpions - still Loving you. Although Def Lepards - Foolin' is one of my faves too. Keep em' coming. You two kick ayass! 🤘🙂🤘

That's one of my favorite guitar solos ever

The 80's we're the best times ever! I'm getting old now. I'm 48 now but what a ride it's been.

*That's 1 of there BEST for sure... That song ROCKS !!! CLASSIC :)*

Mick Mars on guitar, always had such killer riffs!!!!!!

Please we need the videos or the live version PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE. I'll love 💘 you for ever ❤MUCH LOVE 💘

This song was #1 on MTV for like 6 weeks.in 1985

Ahhh,brought a tear to my eye…❤️💪✌️..damn,I miss those days

I use songs as calendars. This particular song was listened to almost every day while I was stationed in Korea 90-91. I was there 17 months. I returned to the states in August 91 and contacted on old friend in Buffalo whom I knew from Ft. Bragg. He picked me up at the airport, we went to an 82nd Airborne Convention then he drove me to Ft. Drum the next day. Sounds like one of them Casey Kasem stories.

Motley Crue “Primal Scream “ is the banger. Lex will love the guitar parts. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Absolut love Mötley Crüe, my favorite band since the 80,s. The song "Home Sweet Home" is about the band being on tour for a very long time. Bassplayer Nikki Sixx wrote most of the bands songs and they are still going strong. Going on tour with Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett in 2022. You should check out more and react to the songs with videos. Home Sweet Home also has a cool video. You should also check out the bands biopic The Dirt on Netflix or the trailer on KZfaq sooo GOOD!!! They also have very good songs from the 90,s and 00,s.

Motley Crue made a 'power ballad' in 1985 before it became the 'hit single' formulae to sell records in the 80's... Dokken also recorded the power ballad 'Alone again' in 1984. Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee played piano on the track... that record 'Theater of pain' was done after the car accident Crue singer Vince Neil was involved in that killed Hanoi Rocks' drummer Nicholas 'Razzle' Dingley... Neil served a short jail sentence before returning to record the album, but was apparently traumatized for life...

Home is where the heart is. A house is made of brick and stone but a home is made of love alone.

Mötley Crüe is an American heavy metal band formed in Hollywood, California in 1981.The group was founded by bassist Nikki Sixx, drummer Tommy Lee and guitarist/lead vocalist Greg Leon. After some time, Leon was replaced by guitarist Mick Mars and lead vocalist Vince Neil respectively. Mötley Crüe has sold over 100 million albums worldwide.They have also achieved seven platinum or multi-platinum certifications, nine Top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 chart (including 1989's Dr. Feelgood, which is Mötley Crüe's only album to reach number one), twenty-two Top 40 mainstream rock hits, and six Top 20 pop singles. The band was known for being quite popular with the ladies, and Tommy Lee even had his infamous sex-tape released showing him and his wife at the time Pamela Anderson enjoying time together. Nikki has written books about life as rock stars standing toe to toe with Ozzy doing booze and drugs. Nikki even died a few times overdosing. Lyrics below: You know I'm a dreamer But my heart's of gold I had to run away high So I wouldn't come home low Just when things went right It doesn't mean they were always wrong Just take this song And you'll never feel left all alone Take me to your heart Feel me in your bones Just one more night And I'm coming off this long and winding road I'm on my way I'm on my way Home sweet home Tonight, tonight I'm on my way I'm on my way Home sweet home You know that I've seen Too many romantic dreams Up in lights, falling off the silver screen My heart's like an open book For the whole world to read Sometime nothing keeps me together at the seams I'm on my way I'm on my way Home sweet home Tonight, tonight I'm on my way Just set me free Home sweet home Home sweet home Home sweet home Home sweet home I'm on my way I'm on my way Home sweet home Yeah, I'm on my way Just set me free Home sweet home

You guys are so cool keep up the great reactions.🤘🖖✌️🎹🎸🥁🎤

You guys should make a point to watch the video. It really adds to the vibe. It takes the song from anthemic to epic.

you guys gotta see the video...Its awesome. Tommy Lee on drums in the air spinning upside down...man what a great show!!

One of the first metal acts I ever got into even dressed up as Nikki Sixx for Halloween, I remember they used to play this on MTV’s heavy-metal half hour back in the day

This is a song that you definitely need to watch the actual video. It gives the perfect example of what a Motley Crue concert was actually all about

Lex gets it. The genius of Mick Mars always carried the crue musically

Nobody makes music like the 80's anymore , Thanks Brad and Lex for making me remember my childhood, seeing your reactions makes me feel good about our music staying alive. Keep rockin guys , I would like to see you review Cinderella if already have not.

I love all these songs. I was raised up in the 80. They are one of the best bands.

I love that you loved this song. It's like Beth from Kiss. After being on the road forever, they are going home, Tommy Lee wrote it and played the piano. It's deep. My favorites when I was a kid, met all of them. Straight up, top shelf guys. I wish the world was as soulful and loving now. Peace and love always.
