hats off to any of us kids that lived this song daily back then and survived ourselves...

Can you imagine being around at the time these songs came came out. I can, I was there. Awesome times!!!

I am 52 years old and this song is still my anthem. I am still learning and having fun and I will never say I am old and it is that time in my life where I have to give up.

That part always gives me chills, "Park Avenue leads to SKID ROW!"

I'm a 80's teenager!! I got to rock out to these songs and bands when they came out. Sebastian Bach has one of the best voices ever!

The year I graduated HS, this was our Class song we played at our graduation. Those were the days!

Skid Row was the one “hair band” that I thought mixed well with the up and coming grunge scene. I always got an Alice In Chains vibe out of these guys with a bit lighter lyrics. Great band.

I'm in my late 50's but still feel and act like I'm 20. This song is still on my playlist.

Yes, that is the correct way to listen to this music. First, you sing with the hook line. Second, you punch the air in defiant support of the base drum. Maximize intensity by banging your head to the beat. Now you have officially become a headbanger. It's good to see a kid like you enjoying this classic metal.

Oh man. Thank u thank u. I havent even watched i just clicked so fast as soon as i saw. SKID ROW was my fav band in h.s.(late 80s early 90s) ok i gotta go watch now ahhahaha 🤘🏼posters of these guys literally covered my bedroom wall..had to move on to the cieling when i ran out of room lol Rob Affuso is one of my favorite drummers. Met him and Rachel Bolan back in the day on the sunset strip in hollywood right outside the Rainbow. Ran into Rob again in the early 90s out in Santa Monica at 3rd street prominade (kick myself for that one because didnt take advantage of that opportunity) i just internally freaked out and left him alone. I didnt want to bug him i guess. But Hes cool cat, i wished i did. ..i follow him on social media (well i follow them all but Robs my fav 😁🥁) Hes a humble cool dude. This was definitley one of my teen anthems. Edit: After i commented i did watch it and loved it. Love that u finally got to these few Skid songs. Loving all ur reactions to them especially wasted time.. 😁🤘🏼👍🏼

This is peak Skid Row right here

18 and life is a perfect tie-in. Ricky was one of those Youth Gone Wild and see how it worked out for him

there was a real low key, but aggressive rebel voice that Generation X was voicing in the 80's... i love that Sebastian voices the anti-establishment message throughout the song. That emotion was quite real back then... gritty and hurt. Powerful.

Cheers for all the Skid's songs Jamel. Brings back a lot of memories. I was 13-14 years old when this came out, an absolute anthem for us young rockers back then 😎🤘

IMO, an overlooked line in the song was Park Avenue leads to Skid Row.... a very telling tale because of Wal Street in that era...but more so its about all these clean cut guys in the suits and ties can end up on skid row too... not just the rebellious youth. And that sentiment comes up a few times from some bands during that era like Van Halen and a few others.

Can’t believe Sebastian was only 21 when this album came out! (Glad I got to see them live back then too!)

I can tell when you start to like a certain specific band, guaranteed SKID ROW, GUNS & ROSES & SCORPIONS are going to be on your playlist 🤘🔥

You're on a roll, now do Quicksand Jesus, my favorite Skid Row song.

80's hair metal, these were my high school days

The beauty of this song is it's relevant for each generation that come through.

I was about 8 years old singing “ PARK AVENUE LEADS TO... SKID ROW!!!” I had no clue what it meant... but it was awesome

“Boss screamin in my ear tellin me who I’m supposed to be “Good times

Talking about Sebastian's voice - I'm pretty sure he spent time on Broadway after he left Skid Row. Here's a request for you - Stabbing Westward. Start with Shame, then Save Yourself, and What Do I Have to Do? Thanks!

Ahhh the song that started it all for me. As a 10 year old I first saw a pic of them in Circus magazine and thought they looked lame. Then MTV premiered this song and I was hooked.

LOL I was part of that Youth Gone Wild! Now I am 51 and Wild Times are fixing the clogged drain in the sink.😂

Jamel have we told you lately that we appreciate you? You said it right: the young will make mistakes, that's part of learning. What's important is that they have solid examples to look to to learn the right way. YOU are one of those examples. You are someone that any young person could look to and say "this man gets it." "Be a good human." "Be humble." "Love everyone, lift each other up." You are a teacher, just by being who you are.

Imagine if you would.....Back in the days, driving down the road or freeway jamming on this song full blast!!!! YUP!! Good ol' days!!

Warrant - uncle tom's cabin - heaven Poison - life goes on - something to believe in Please more rock 80's

I heard this song on the radio last year for the first time since probably 1989 and it took me straight back to high school. Forgot how good Skid Row was and was glad I was reminded.

This was the very first music video I ever saw. I saw and heard them and was hooked on skid row ever since.

This was MY song as a kid. It was the anthem of my youth. I’ve been a little metalhead since the age of 6 & was the ultimate wild child from about the age of about 10. I’m from a very religious family & remember blasting Youth Gone Wild while downing a 2 litre bottle of strong cider before going to Sunday School when I was 10 - before getting kicked out for pointing & laughing at the Pastor’s wife singing. After that, I got involved with older metalheads & bikers & totally went off the rails for many years. This song takes me back to being a kid & reminds me of all the crazy stuff I did over the years. It brings back sooo many memories. These days I’m just old & boring - but I think once you’re a metalhead, you’re always a metalhead. I love all the different genres in metal these days (I’m going through a Nightwish & other European metal phase at the min) & don’t think I’ll ever “grow out of it” like my family wanted me to 😎

"Boss screamin' in my ear about who I'm supposed to be..."

Just a fun fact.. Sebastian Bach went on to do 4 shows on Broadway! He also has a KZfaq channel.. Great Reaction

I wish I could listen to these songs again for the first time.

Youth Gone Wild is tattooed on Sebastian's forearm.

Back in the days of MTV being music television.... they had a midnight show called Headbangers Ball. I found many great bands from that, Skid Row included. Anyone else old enough to remember HBB?

Love the Skid Row videos. Brings me back to the good ole days. Thanks

I loved when Bach sang as Freddie Mercury in "sing your face off" I was blown away by his performance.

That was the song that put them on the map . It was the first single released from their debut album, and with other great songs and music videos from that album like 18 and life and I Remember You, they made a big impact.

In that era of glam rock so many bands sounded the same, skid row stood out. One of my favourites.

You play so many of my favorite bands and I appreciate that you really listen and give them a chance!

someone needs to send this to Sebastian Bach...he’s pretty active on Facebook

4:13; Good to see you singing along with Sebastian Bach 🤘🤘🤘

Skid Row had some great songs and music 🎶 and Sebastian Bach was the driving force for there music, what a incredible voice! Do there song Wasted Time (about a friend who was a heroine addiction) and I love ❤️ I Remember You, Slave To the Grind! Great reaction🤟

One of those songs where my foot seems to get progressively heavier as it goes while I'm driving...

Man these skid row songs brings back memories thanks brother 🙏

Out-flippin'-standing! I've got some catchin' up to do on your channels. I love your reactions and interpretations! "Keep Great Music Alive!"

Sebastian and the fellas knew how to do it right! Skid Row was 1 of my favorites during the late Great 80's!! Thank you Jamal for keeping on keeping on bringing us the great music! 🤘🤘

Sebastian is so awesome!! Beautiful voice and he had the looks! !!

We was the youth gone wild the 80s was a perfect time and early 90s

I mentioned it on another vid, but I genuinely believe you’ll love every note of Ozzy Osbourne’s Diary of a Madman. Randy Rhoad’s guitar work on that track is what made me want to play in the first place. A perfect musical experience.

still gives me chills!

Thank you for bringing this music back to my ears! I lived through this musical era and it was so great!

Love to see your love for all music, from Skid Row to Elvis !!! Keep it up Brother Love your channel. You seem like a genuine awesome guy.

Youth gone wild is my favorite skid row song. the best thing about Youth gone wild is it speaks to generations to come since 1989 i was a youth when this song came out it speaks to me now like it did back then awesome song.

Jamel, your best reaction yet. So cool you connected with this song. I could feel it!

Have I ever told you how much I appreciate you for keeping my soul and spirit at ease with great music and reaction

This song came out when I was 12. This music had me impatient as hell to become a 'wild' teenager too. But then grunge happened.

This is the first time I've watched any of your vids. I've been seeing you appear on my KZfaq homepage for weeks & weeks and you didn't disappoint. I'm 32 years into being a huge Skid Row fan. This is one of many sweet songs of theirs. I first saw them here in Cleveland, Oh. open for Bon Jovi on 3-25-89 and I became a fan of Skid Row for life that night. That night was one 40 minute opening set where they roared. I saw them a few more times after that night and they were always awesome. Anyway, nice video here, I'll be checking out more of your offerings.

These guys did an EP in the 90's called "B-Sides Ourselves" in which each of the band members chose a song by a band they loved and then Skid Row covered it, so it includes a song each by Rush, the Ramones, KISS, Judas Priest and Jimi Hendrix. It's a really fun and short record that most people tend to ignore but I loved it back in the day. They released an official video for the Hendrix cover, "Little Wing," where they play it live in some warehouse and they absolutely kill it. You should react to that.

Memories in 80s of my 7 year old daughter running around in her skid row ,youth gone wild t-shirt watching headbangers ball on tv.

My uncle Richie was their drum tech for years! So proud to see great music being appreciated ✌🏻 rock on 🤘

Skid Row didn't invent the '80s Hair Flip,' but they definitely perfected it.

You are KEEPING MUSIC ALIVE....THANK YOU!!!!

Oh yea the 80's hair bands love these bands.

I love it when your exuberance overcomes you and you sing along - it's infectious! Keep on head bangin', brah!!

This was the theme song of my generation I'm 45 now and I chuckle but I remember carrying the boom box on my shoulder playing the cassette of this lol thank you for making me feel 16 again

One of the best anthems songs ever made.

I was young when this came out and I loved every minute and still loved them.Sebastian is my favorite vocalist of all time❤️

Love the words of wisdom, brother. Another great reaction.

Sabastian Bach has one of the greatest true Metal Rock 'n Rock vocals of all time.

There it is!!

"Peace Pipe" Cry of Love

I really love your take on music all genre music have their greats and you can appreciate them all ,more like this in the world would make us all better

my fav song from my favorite band. bless you!!!!

Thank you so much for doing all the skid row they're so fantastic and very often overlooked another great band that's often overlooked from this time frame is Extreme. you should really check out a few if their songs check out more than words, Cupid's dad, and get the funk out

I'm so glad I was fortunate in my teen years to see them in concert

This is an absolute head banger. He was voted as the best Metal Vocalist two years in a row. He went on to play the Phantom of the Opera. This guy is 6'6. Incredible.😊

I'm so proud of being a '80s baby!!!

Some ppl my age (Gen XRs ) would call this an anthem of our generation ❤

The Memories this is Evoking🤟❤🤟❤🤟❤🤟

MAN...I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL...KEEP THE GREAT CONTENT COMMING.

This song came out my senior year in high school and it was my number-one theme song.

I KNEW YOU WERE GONNA LOVE THESE GUYS !!!

This is an anthem ! Keep up the good work in 21 !

This was their first video I was in grade 12 when it came out in 1989 they're so many great hair bands from the 80's it could keep Jamal busy 24/7 lol Cinderella,Dokken,Great White.Poison ,RATT Stryper ,Queensryche the Cult among so so many hope he goes done that rabbit hole, great memories

Amazing band...great reaction!! Thank you for reacting to them!!!

I am super happy to hear you react to this

Love the Skid Row kick you're going on. Youth Gone Wild is such a badass song, love it to death!

I was 6th row center stage at one of their shows in the early 90’s. Great band.

Jamel, you are amazing. Keep doing your thing man.

There was nothing like seeing 25,000 fans throw their fists in the air and chant with them, on this tour! Loved this man for 35 years.

I moved to LA in 86 playing hard rock guitar what an amazing guitar

I found you via a Gordon Lightfoot song. I'm really enjoying your point of view & that you're bringing people's awareness of excellent "older" music!!!

New to the channel. Love it so far and have been binge watching your videos. Would love to see The Black Crowes “Remedy”, Blues Traveler “But Anyway” and Tesla “Modern Day Cowboy”. Keep up the great videos!! Much love.

I WAS AROUND 17 WHEN THIS CAME OUT AND THIS WHOLE ALBUM IS LIKE THE SOUNDTRACK TO MY MEMORIES

I totally love how you break it all down in your reviews Jamal!! You should be a kids counselor! You have a calm demeanor and are already pretty wise at 40! Thanks for doing this!!

this was the first song of theirs i ever heard.i think it was their first one. I just remember hearing this and feeling like they were singing about me.

I was a freshman/sophomore in high school when this album and song came out. Love them so much ❤️
