I saw him open for Heart back when he went by the name John Cougar. Great show. He out did Heart by a mile.

This song means so much to me. It would be on the radio all the time when I was a kid in the 80s. Knew it well. Then, I grew up in the 90s, found my own music, and probably went at least 10 years without hearing this song. Then one night, sitting at a traffic stop about 24 years old, this song plays, and that line "Life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone" hit me like a ton of bricks. So true. Its amazing how some lyrics can have little meaning at one point of your life then, somewhere down the road, it can mean everything.

After his initial success, which afforded him a bit more clout, he first changed “Johnny” (a name he had never gone by) back to “John” and then tacked his real surname back on. So, he actually went from “John Mellencamp” to “Johnny Cougar” to “John Cougar” to “John Cougar Mellencamp” and back to “John Mellencamp.” So, there ya go. His birthday is tomorrow BTW and he's also a painter. Def have to do Hurts So Good.

I’m glad you finally got to John. We are from the same “Small Town”. My husband went to school with him. He broke my husbands nose in PE. Most of Johns songs come straight from the heartland of Indiana, most of his videos are shot in my county. My favorite song “Pink Houses” I watch them shoot some of it about a mile from my house. John has some great songs. Hope you do some more of his songs. He sings about the true Heartland of America. Another good one is Cherry Bomb”👍🔥

@robertard9748
@robertard9748 4 года назад
The reason that you're having a hard time placing the genre is because this is rural, midwestern focused rock n roll. There had been southern rock before this, which was rural focused. Had John come out a decade or two later he would have been country, but he was a hybrid between 50's rock and 2000's country. He was even hard to categorize back in the 80's. He was unapologetically unironic about culture and rural life, which is not to say naïve. Urbane irony, of course, became rock n roll's hermeneutic stance by the late 60's. JM bought the sound of rock and the hermeneutic stance of country. Rock critics pretty much hated JM, because he wasn't trying to tear down rural American values. If you listen closely to his music, you can hear his critique of the forces trying to undo small-town America, which is the greed of foreclosing on farms, moving factories to China or Mexico, and hypocrisy in its many forms.

John's first stage name was John Cougar. He was from Seymour, Indiana. He later went to his real last name - Mellencamp. He has a song called I NEED A LOVER. It is fantastic. It has an incredibly loooong intro & I *love* it! He was younger when he wrote it. He said he'll never put that long of an intro on a song again. But it's a favorite of mine.

In 2008, accomplished singer/songwriterJohn Mellencamp was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (very deservedly). The RU-vid video named "Induction of John Mellencamp is well worth watching." Billy Joel, who gives a tribute and introduction to John, is hilarious. Not to be missed is what John shares as he thanks those who've made a difference in his life. Big bonus: John performs several of his songs. Also, check out his live performances at Farm Aid benefits over the years. Love his performance of "Hurts So Good" in the 1995 one.

It is a throwback to old school-rock-and-tell-a-story-roll music, if we have to put it in a category. Seriously tho, that is what JM does with almost all of his music, he finds a thread that all of us can relate to, or at least understand, and puts it to music. The others have pointed you towards the other good stuff from him, I think you will enjoy it. At 62, I don't think I have reached the point where the thrill of livin' is gone. It peaks again when you become a grandparent. Sorta like you get a return on investment from raising your kids.

Great song and artist. As far as genre or category, John "Cougar" Mellencamp is usually filed under Heartland Rock, alongside artists like Bruce Springfield, Bruce Hornsby, Melissa Etheridge, Bryan Adams, Bob Seger, and Tom Petty. They fuse Rock, Folk, Country, Classic R&B, and even a bit of New Wave into songs that celebrate small-town Americana and dwell on 20th Century nostalgia and "the good old days".

I'd always heard that the claps were there just to keep time and to be removed later. But they liked it better keeping them in.

That's the great thing about the 80s. It was a time of experimentation. Musicians were making it up as the decade went along. There was no script.

This was filmed out at Monroe Reservoir outside Bloomington Indiana. I spent many, many summers hiking, swimming, and hunting geodes down there.

This song was on the radio every 5 min in the 80’s.

@jayveeTV A bit of trivia for ya: this song was inspired by an interracial couple he saw at one of his shows. He thought it was cool and decided to write a song about it. In the song, Jack was black, Diana was white, and they were high school sweethearts just like any other. The label thought that would limit the success of the song and refused to release it without changed. John fought with them for awhile over it, because them being interracial and just a couple like any other was the point of the song but when the label was adamant about not releasing it, he finally changed John changed Jack to be "a football star." It was really cool thing to learn (I'd only learned that about a year ago, myself) as my parents were interracial just like Jack & Diane, and were married the same time this song dropped. In the video for "Ain't Even Down With the Night" his performance was inspired by James Brown, and "Wild Nights" is a duet with a killer bassist Me'Shell Ndegeocello from the 90's (one of my favorites). John Mellencamp's story of a dude in constant battle with his labels: they changed his name (around this time he was known was John Cougar because the label thought "Mellencamp" wasn't marketable), his songs, his image, etc. He finally got to be big enough to call his own shots.

One minute he sounds like a "balladeer," but then a rock rasp to him in the chorus.

you got it-this is folk rock! at the time it came out they’d probably just call it pop, or country, but these days we can classify it as folk rock.

Growing up in the rural midwest this song struck a lot of nerves, both for younger folk and older folk. Life goes on long after the thrill of livin' is gone...
