See ya in Pittsburgh Donnie!

I heard this song for the first time tonight, alot had to happen for me to get in my car and to have it just come on as soon as I started my car lol

Donnie Iris is so freaking cool!!!!

1:49 Ahh, now I know the original of Power Station's drums on "Some like it hot" of 1985! Cool!

This is distilled Pittsburgh!

This is one of those songs that when I hear it come on the radio, I put my speakers in serious danger!

Donnie Iris
"Love Is Like A Rock"
#37, 1982.

If this didn't make it onto the soundtrack of an 80's teen romance movie there is something wrong with the world as we know it

Roller skating music....

Damn...this needs more views....or listens! This is such a great song!

But Im DONNIE Iris

30+ years later and this song still gives me goosebumps all over! !!

Love is like a Rock !
Need I say more ....

The "other" hit by the artist who recorded one of the greatest songs ever!

Rock on Fellow Youtubers !!! ✌👍😎🇺🇸 Enjoy the music .. You got a Friend in Pa.

This song goes out to my Brother Michael and my sister in law Lorrie for their love, support and just being Family. Love ya guys and a thousand thank you's . Thank you for the cool autographed music cd. Rock On Pittsburghers!!! 😎👍✌🇺🇸 Pittsburgh Pa. and the other Burg ... Greensburg

I am so proud being from the Bugh

Anyone from Western PA or Eastern OH remember this?

Donnie smoking a joint lol

Beaver valley history question... Who did we produce more of great football players or great musicians?....... Let's just call it a draw, and be proud that we have both

Graduated high school in '77, so for all of the '80's I was a young adult- perfectly poised to have the best times of my life-- and I did!!! Thank you God!

As did I signed, class of 82 😃

Such a good song!

I love this song!

A horseshit band releasing a horseshit song during a horseshit era for music!!! And the era is STILL for horseshit music!! At least this is how it seems in MSP!! Cumulus media SUCKS!!!
14 minutes of commercials two years ago I timed on the "Classic Rock" station and the day after that on the "alternate rock" station 11 minutes of commercials!! So glad I have Sirius XM!!

Representing the county

Great Band from the Pittsburgh area.

I love Ah Leah, but why is that the only one that is dug out for deep cut weekends on classic rock radio but not this one? I personally remember this one more.

Rock done right!

Waiting for the Donnie Iris + Wiz Khalifa collab track

Whoever is playing guitar sounds like Jeff Beck 🤔

I forgot about this song. Thanks for posting.

We just got too high

Smoking a doobie to this back in the day!🤤

Where's my joystick??? Video Pinball, anyone??

What a great tune! Very under the radar song! Rock On!

This just screams PITTSBURGH!

Donnie played at Congressman Lambs victory party Nov 6Th 2018. Still good.

352k congrats

song sucks. simpletons. fuck you ..!..

I visited Jeree Studios in '85 while in college. I'm old now but I thought the studio was in Beaver Falls, Pa

Gee, what is he smoking?

A Pittsburgh classic

Love the beat🖤🥀🖤

I need to put this in a movie scene.

Oh wow! I gotta think of a good one.That movie with Jennifer Connelly.....

Thank goodness for sound recorders sounds great on my i pod

Slades version is far better.Long live the mighty SLADE!😀

I've got this Album OH YEAH

Tempest!!!! What a great game

✌💖

It's not what the devil says..Its what Jesus and God says. Amen. 57

This has the sound and production and adolescent swagger of a song that should have been in "Fast Times At Ridgemont High," but wasn't.

LOVE IS LIKE A ROCK

Good riff, this should have been a much bigger hit song.

I agree, sadly in early 1982 people were still into the soft rock music and the country crossover pop music that was ruling the airwaves during that time period.

Donnie Iris penned the one song lyric that will remain true forever: YOU CAN'T DEPEND ON POLITICIANS! (Democrat or Republican)

You know everyone in my town think they know music. I was in a band and we played this and Ah Leah and everyone thought we wrote it. When we told them who the song was written by and next thing you know everyone was searching everywhere for the cds.

HEY!!!!
Love can Rock You!! 😍

I remember this song from when I was a kid and it popped into my head again today,so glad I found it again

He might be King Cool, but Nick Lowe is Jesus Of Cool ;)

Sounds like The Tubes.

Eh.... guess you had to be there. But I do love "ah Leah" though.

kick ass 90'r

if someone says this is not rock music please slap yourself thank you for your corporation

I'm 49 years old and i just Discovered this song yesterday. Holds up pretty good!

Michael OMG!!! where the FUCK were you in the 80s DUDE????😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

check out Ian Hunter

238 jagoffs.

This is all true. Not sure of love?

For some reason I always thought this was a Billy Squier song...

Slade's cover in '87 was okay, a little crunchier, but it was the first time (of MANY to come) that I thought, "Is this cover really necessary?"

I have this sudden urge to go hang out with a very short girl i was dating at the time who had a great body and could kiss like nobody else. Wonder what happened to Robin.

Excellent use of the Gretsch Country Gentleman Chet Atkins 🎸

This great old song is under played on classic rock stations. Other classic rock songs are over played so much I want to puke.You know which ones they are.

They cant play this, it won't leave airtime for the same 3 Slippery When Wet tracks.

"It's 10 o'clock, let's get the Led out, Man....." The biggest cliche in classic rock.

@U686ST Ragdoll, Love in an Elevator, Dude Looks Like a Lady.... Every hour, on the hour!!

@Blindi Thorbjorn But how then can they squeeze in 30 Stairway to Heavens in a day

@U686ST Been replaced with Mandatory Metallica! Playing the same 3/4 songs like always.

I miss the 80's!

Gotta get those leg warmers and white "do me" pumps!

Kim C .....nice mental picture!!!

Donnie has as good a voice as Little Richard or Paul McCartney....

This is rock done proper!

185 GaGa fans have cast their vote...

Wow i think I haven't heard this song since the 80's.

There's a tiny clip of the AB dancers dancing to it somewhere on YouTube.

its real good time rock and roll...and its great!

same guy from wild cherry... play that funky

Donnie Iris' songs shred from start to finish. I love that!

A great song!

I remember hearing this song the summer before I started middle school.

Im 41 and I am stuck in the 8ossss. HELLLP! HAS anyone seen Doctor Emmet Brown !?

.......MTV used to play a concert video clip of this song.......the early/mid '80s of MTV were awesome.......

Or on a cool show called Night Flight.

I was a sophomore in high school when this was released. Still a great song. Nothing like 80s music. What an era!  I am almost  51 and still stuck in the 80s'.

Me too! This stuff gives me chills! Love it! ❤❤❤

Class of 1983 here.

And I am 19

There are many WORSE places to be stuck.

This is one of the great 80s songs that most people from the 80s never heard.

Everybody that was in Pittsburgh in the '80s knows Donnie Iris. I mean *personally*. Ask 'em :D

I saw Donnie Iris open up for almost everyone in the late 1980s. I'm from the Akron area and now Donnie Iris shills for the cable company.

God awful piece of dog shit.....

You couldn't go skating and not have heard this song.

Ric Degre Ain’t that the damn truth!! 😂🤣

I WAS ONLY 17 WHEN THIS FIRST CAME OUT. IT WAS THE TIME I WAS LOSING MY VIRGINITY.OOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Still easy are you Denise?

Nowadays, 17 is practically abstinence!

I was in 3rd grade skate rinks,stereo coffee tables playing 45's what fun it was

This is something to hear first thing in the morning before work. Nice.

Remember seeing them open for UFO at the Ampitetheater and the crowd booed them mercilessly. Recall seeing a roll of toilet paper bounce off Donny's head. Good times.

KrupaDrums hahaha,that's funny about Donnie...UFO rules.

Blame the booze or the drugs, but behavior like that is just plain pathetic.

entered Billboard Dec 19, 1981 ..reached #37
