    Unchained is a song that really fires me up...so it was the obvious choice out of the two.

    Kinda like RATM songs, it makes me want to kick someone's ass.

        When I got my first electric guitar my mom also pre-paid for two lessons on the next two Saturdays. The first lesson he taught me how to tune and said "next week, bring in a song you'd like to learn". I knew exactly what I wanted to be able to play. The next week I sat down with the instructor in a tiny sound room lined with speakers & electronics and two small stools to sit on. We hooked up our guitars, he checked my tuning, then I handed him my cassette I had brought. 10 seconds later the opening of ATBL cranked through the system. I could see his head drop a bit thinking "shit, how am I supposed to teach the kid this?" Hey, he said any song, and this is what I wanted to play.

        To his credit, he did a fine job showing me how to do it.



        btw - his name was Mike, from Music, Music guitar shop in El Cajon, CA (in case he ever finds himself perusing these boards someday)

            Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love. I love everything about this song, especially the lyrics. But Unchained is excellent as well...

                ATBL may be more the more "famous" track, but to the initiated Unchained is far superior. The syncopation during the bridge kicks ass!

                      ATBL is a original riff! Unchained the first time i heard it (1981) , i said damn it sounds a little like Dead or alive!

                        Strictly riff? Unchained.

                          I have to say I kinda like ATBL a little better. The variations in the song, the lyrics, the guitar spots are all extremely good & even though I don't really like the "Hey, hey, hey" at the end, that part can really work to to get everybody in the audience shouting.

                          Now, 'scuse me while I take a listen to ATBL & follow it up with Unchained.

                          Cheers! :bottle:

                            Considering what that twat thought was cool during the late 80s, I think that's actually a compliment to the song.

                              Unchained....

                              I am 15 years old at my first VH concert in Evansville, IN in July of '84 (I had the boot until my hard drive crashed, got it here so if anyone has a copy....hint hint...)

                              Anyway... lights go down... crowd cheers...band starts to noodle around to build the excitement...the Ed begins the opening riff of Unchained... lights hit Dave standing on the drum riser and he hollers "Alright Evansville"... jumps of and does the splits mid air... the second he hits the ground the whole band kicks in and the light come up on stage...

                              That my friends...... IS rock and roll!

                                I have the Evansville bootleg! PM me, we can work something out.

                                Unchained for sure!
