See Dee Snider Turn 'We're Not Gonna Take It' Into Piano Ballad
Rolling Stone ^ | 8/22/2016 | Daniel Kreps

OK, so Dee Snider is a lib, and Rolling Stone is a POS publication, but this video is an amazing piece that put a lump in my throat.

In spite of the above issues, this is a good 4:26 of time spent.

I do respect Libs who put their talent to work supporting real issues, as opposed to Globull Warming and the like.

I remembered seeing them more than once in Brewster, NY when they were still a bar band.

The images of people shaving heads disturbed me as I had to do that for my late wife before she died of cancer.

Good video.

Reminded me of this one:

I wonder what that song would sound like if Bruce Dickinson gave it a try? I wonder if he has beaten his throat cancer come to think of it?

Oh, my gosh. . . that was so horribly bad that we need to cleanse the collective musical palate of the thread.

This should do it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-43pOqheMY

And then, to restore balance to the force:

That could be cool.

Now I am not a fan of Dee, but I stumbled across this when I did some research on Mack The Knife. Thought it was a pretty neat cover of the song.

I’ll always remember Dee Snider teaming up with John Denver and Frank Zappa to testify before Congress in opposition to Tipper Gore about song lyrics.

Any good song - or any bad song, for that matter - can be turned into a crappy ballad. For some reason, the term “crappy ballad” instantly brings an image of Bon Jovi to mind.

No, but if I lived in Finland, I would know who to laugh with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYNmGHhIJ8k

It would have been much better if that Dee Snider person was having HIS head shaved.

I like SCOTS but I’m guessing you did not even watch the Dee Snider video as then you would see that your post was in poor taste. Text book example of posting without viewing the subject.
