I'm not a big Warrant fan at all but this song is cool. The video plays like a mini movie about a backwoods murder.

I like WARRANT, unapologetically. I think Jani Lane is a great songwriter...he has his share (and a big one at that) of problems...but as is evidenced by a listen to wither the SAINTS OF THE UNDERGROUND album or his solo disc, you see who wrote the material.

"Uncle Tom's cabin" is a great story song and awesome live.

I like select songs from their first two albums. Big Talk from the first album is cool too...

Another thing about the song Uncle Tom's... a lot of people actually think it's about a book regarding the infamous black slave. It was a trick for publicity.

Great song.

My fave Warrant track. It actually got me into the band. I hated what little I heard off their first release, but when "Uncle Tom's Cabin" started getting major MTV play I remember thinking "Damn, that's actually a pretty good song." Years later I finally bit the bullet and bought a used copy of CHERRY PIE. There's some good stuff on there. The DOG EAT DOG and ULTRAPHOBIC albums aren't bad either.

Speaking of Warrant, I read on Blabbermouth earlier this week that Jani Lane got arrested for D.W.I. in Los Angeles ... that dude's a train wreck.

I saw him a few weeks ago at M3 festival, and he was on it. Great performance. He is a good showman...and he current bands is ferocious!!!

Sad that he has these off stage problems, as he is a talented fellow...

I don't recall him saying that...Howveer It's essentially true.

I saw him with WARRANT last summer and solo the other week...and both were great...so what's that say?

i prefer the Cherry Pie video.


yummy

Whenever i see your avatar i think doro is the one speaking. She wants cherry pie.

The solos are cool too.

My favorite Warrant song as well.

Whenever someone says Warrant is just a "typical hair metal band", I challenge them to listen to "Uncle Tom's Cabin".

I got burnt out on Warrant way before they got signed. Guess having to "pay to play" on the night they headlined and the folks I sold tickets to got turned away cause the club was already packed had something to do with it ? They never paid nothing to the promoters and the other bands footed the bill.
Yes, I believe Janey Lane can write a great tune. It just brings up lame memories of bands that already have the pull to fill a club to the brim and the promoters still make the other bands pay in advance for a certain amount of tickets to play and then not have the tickets those bands sold honored at the venue.
I am still angry after all these years

makes me think of a rapist.

Best Warrant song!!!! I saw an interview with Jani Lane was saying he wishes that he was known for Uncle Tom's Cabin instead of Cherry Pie and that he is sick of having to play it and wishes he never wrote it. Of course, that was probably until he started counting his royalities!!!!!

BTW - Cherry Pie is a blatant rip off of pour some sugar on me.

I've always said if you get rid of a couple radio hits Warrant was better then a lot of hair bands and this song proves it.

Great Song for sure.I always liked Warrant.Even from the very start.Down Boys was a cool song.

You take an album like Dog Eat Dog.and that shows they werent just another hair band.Its a very mature album with lots of good songs.
