Sully Erna - The Departed

[vmstoev]

It sounds like Ancient Ritual

[dustinbellowsr]

Very magical

[rjb4986]

Blessed be!!!!!!!!! \,,/

[TheGrassanaytor]

is he on a solo career now

[EternalLies]

@TheGrassanaytor No. He's doing both things at the same time (I mean his solo stuff and Godsmack stuff.)

[chrystalguardian]

I am telling everyone I know about Sully, so far everyone finds it as amazing a magical as I do... Blessed Be

[starwarskid31]

this may, i think that im going to see him, i hope man cause everything he sings is always just great

[VoodeuxChild]

i absolutely love this song and this man.

[Guigley]

This is one of the greatest albums ever made. I'm not just saying it. It truly is an audio work of art that has Erna's passion and heart in every track. In an age where it is about shock value, Auto-tune and glamour instead of the music, this album is the real deal. For those who long for real music of today, don't miss this album; share it with as many people as possible.

[metalligimp]

@Guigley I couldn't have said it better myself and completely agree. And I have been spreading the word of Avalon/Sully anywhere I go in a music circle :-)

[paulandkat88]

excellent song!!! Love him and Godsmack!!!!

[NikiL2134]

@Hospitalet112

[JaderGater2]

[BAMitsRuzi]

[NYgiants881]

best song on this album

[sk8ninja1]

this man is more than i'm capable of expressing!!!

[AdamLambert4Life12]

my names erna j.s . :]

[nymphsnecessitys]

none of the stores around here have this cd :( not even the barnes and noble...I had to order it from them...still waiting

[USMCxScoutSniper21]

sully, david draiman, halford, ivan moody and the singer of all that remains are my favorite rock/metal singers

[UltimateImperium]

@USMCxScoutSniper21 Phil Labonte

[MommyBird10]

Did he do this all himself? or did godsmack do this with him? or? lol

[stanger963]

@MommyBird10 no...he welcomed some guys into his project like Lisa Guyer,Irina Chirkova,blabla........He worked on this for 7 years....THE BEST!!

[Angnic22]

Bought my copy yesterday. Just love this style of music and his voice. I was hooked on Serenity and this just blows my mind! LOVE IT!

[salamanderify1]

Yerp good tunes and wise words.

[blsmafia6]

I can think of at least 10 people that have better voices than Hetfield, but i do love sullys voice

[wildmanchris200]

I have been shown the sexual comments you left on my 13 year old son's channel, you know: "I gotta know how long is yur..." You godfucking pedophile, I have reported your comment to the police and I am looking for you myself... Better hope the cops get to you first, you scum...

[LanceGarmon]

great song am i right?

[for3v3rhis13]

sully is not only 1 of the sexiest men tht has walked this earth but his voice is... omg amazing :D

[TheShredress]

it sort of sounds like "Serenity" in my opinion... which is really cool since i love that song too =)

[mycurse67]

just got my own copy... awsome...

[godsmackerna]

when this album released?

[EternalLies]

@godsmackerna September 14. It's called Avalon.

[theresevick]

@godsmackerna

In September- the 11th? 14th?

[musicmydrug10]

I so respect Sully Erna! He's an amazing songwriter/performer/musician! He has a beautiful voice that has originality and amazing tone! I love the background female vocal, it adds a mystery to the song... He's poetic in his lyrics with this song, and pretty much every song he writes. Just love him&his bandmates!!!

[EmTeemtx]

@EternalLies Bullshit! i was like, "Your name says it all.' it was over something petty tho. XP

[hiphoppers56]

Love it!



[chazilla1]

one of favorite voice in rock music is layne staley. which is also one of sully erna's musical heros too. godsmack is one of my favorite bands too. sully did an amazing job on this album. a true musical phenom.

[soulbruder1]

Sully man.... very great.

[ltuomela]

very cool man...i would say all his LP's were solo as he was the mastermind of it all...lol..sounds like well Sully..

[sduhanpi4]

@rambo00rock17 You are wrong!!! The best voice belonged to DIO (R.I.P.). And in my opionion Coverdale has a better voice. Don't get me wrong I love Metallica and Megadeth and SOAD I even visited the Sonisphere festival in Sofia where Metallica Megadeth Slayer and Anthrax played (AM I EVIL FTW SO MUCH EPICNESS!!!!!1111!).

[GolecWTF]

@metallicarocks37 ramb00rock17 is right I love all their voices... I don't know how anyone can dislike Dave's voice. It is fuckin' awesome just like Sully and Hetfield's voice.

God bless Godsmack, Megadeth, Metallica, Manowar and more...

[malicemajesty]

Omg, had no freakin idea Sully released a solo album till now!! Found out on Yahoo video premiere page for Sinner's Prayer...so freakin cool! He's amazing & am so stoked he released it :)

[Moonshadow1979]

Ever since Avalon was released and I bought it, I haven't been able to stop playing it. It reminds me of so much, brings out interesting emotions and thoughts, gets me through my long drive to and from work. When I hit shuffle on my iPod I get bored and go back to be trapped (in a good way) with listening to Avalon. Lisa Guyer is awesome and I'm glad they collaborated for his album :)

[coontrapingkid]

i love his music its bad ass

[TheCaptainIchigo]

Sully is by far my favorite singer ever. A.d he along with the rest of the band are my favorite band ever!!!!!

[Abaddon6661990]

this is so fucking good !!!

[zero25801]

This is a peaceful song to me, don't you agree.

[alivemagnetic]

I love every song from this album.

[tombstonerob777]

This is great

[XxemocoreXbitchXx]

For all Godsmack/Sully erna fans i highly recommend reading his book "The Paths we Choose"

It's an amazing book and lets you see him in a new light

[stingernitro]

i am not going to lie, i just heard this song a few days ago and fell in love with it. I haven't been able to stop listening to it. This and Sinner's Prayer are two amazing tracks.

[bosaburn]

the coming together of souls and all gods ^5

[XbmxforlifeX]

Godsmack has to Prolly be the most talented band of the acoustic world.... Well sully erna I should say.... This is amazing

[puggsy16]

@XbmxforlifeX I like godsmack, and I take offense at this juvenile comment.

[EmTeemtx]

3 dislikes are 3 members of motley crue

[plottluvr07]

The Departed is on Avalon. I bought it at Best Buy and its on there. Sooooo....not so much the iTunes exclusive.

[DeaDeYes60]

@EternalLies lol and it is a badass album, I must say..

[nasraani]

Oh shit!! This is fucking SWEET!!!

[stevo20k]

sully is one of the best singers out there

[Onemandynasty13]

wow this is fucking amazing...

[drury2361]

Sully and Matt Barlow are the best singers out there 

[reppincville]

i heard that this album is really soft compared to godsmack's shit but it is extremely good

[alexannbell]

Absolutely love this song and any other that sully would sing. He is so talented!

[GPCJordanDowns]

This is my favorite song off the album, i really love the Persian influence within this song! The Persian flare gives it a very haunting and alluring atmosphere

[03091045]

my favorite song from the new album......awesome..... \m/

[03091045]

my favorite song from the new album......awesome..... \m/

[fransioli24]

Sully is the most impressive Artist in music for the last 12 years. I will suport him in all his Work!

[MrBeerman97]

Totally agree With ya there bout Being the Most talened Singer Ever!!

[badboi26101]

wow im way way impressed i love it but i hope godsmack dont split i hope he can do both

[xXxRIPDIMExXx]

3 people suck massive black dick for not liking this song

[WykydPuppeteer]

Sully Has Such An Amazing Voice, In My Opinion He Is The Morgan Freeman Of Music! LOL :-)

[abdeldm]

sooo trippin!

[Netnarchy]

i love his fucking voice

[BProachPapa]

fuck i disliked the video by accident :/

anyway the song is great

[johnnnycassh]

Is it me, or the background music has a little touch of Serenity?

[qowsay]

holy awesomeness!!

[ricjames1970]

after listening to this song and sinner's prayer, I now place Sully Erna right up there with Jim Morrison as one of the greatest poets to ever live. With this new album, Sully has just blown me away. Jim Morrison, to me, is Legendary when it comes to writing music and now it is the same with Sully. He is just incredible.

[trinya13]

I agree w/ rambo00rock17, but don't forget geoff tate, bruce dickenson and rob halford. especially geoff. sully is just so multi talented, he can do it all...sing, play better guitar than tony rombola and matches shannon larkin on drums...oh yeah, he's pretty good on harmonica too. is there anything the guy can't do??? he even looks damn good doin it all!!!

[crazymotoxer41]

@trinya13 also plays the piano

[rambo00rock17]

sully has the best voice along with james hetfield and dave mustaine

[EternalLies]

@rambo00rock17 Well said!

[johnnnycassh]

@rambo00rock17 I'd replace dave mustaine with myles kennedy ;)

[sullyerna244]

@rambo00rock17 and david draiman

[Raleighkleeb1]

@rambo00rock17 dave mustane doesnt really use much of a voice, more grunt-like singing. Don't get me wrong i like Megadeth, just sayin' he doesn't have much variety in his singing style. James labrie of dream theater is one of my top favorite singers.

[Tulllip27]

@rambo00rock17 Can I add Corey Taylor to the list :) :) :)

[mrlewisjd]

@rambo00rock17 david draiman is damn talented aswell

[amg006UCSD]

@rambo00rock17

I totally agree, but Corey Taylor of Stone Sour and Slipknot has to be in this convo too

[shogunfan4life]

@amg006UCSD agreed.

[CSavercool05]

@rambo00rock17 add corey taylor to the mix and i agree 100%

[metallicarocks37]

@rambo00rock17 i agree, except for Dave Mustaine, but james hetfield and sully are both amazing!

[rambo00rock17]

@metallicarocks37 its all in opinion personaly i think daves vocals are kick ass.

[makeitsoproductions]

@rambo00rock17 and serj tankian

[marcusfenix980]

@rambo00rock17 James hetflied sucks compared to sully. He is old and metalica is overated

[rambo00rock17]

@marcusfenix980 james doesnt suck i never said he was better than sully.idc if metallica is overrated they are still great....

[maadgq69]

@rambo00rock17 dont forget myles kenedy from alterbridge

[RIPdimeRIP101]

@rambo00rock17 and Phil Anselmo

[DominoDylan]

@rambo00rock17 Indeed he does, but my personal opinion, he writes the better songs.

[rhdes]

@rambo00rock17 i believe you forgetting about m shadows

[WickedMagickIV]

I agree, COMPLETELY with you! Sully's voice is so amazing and soothing! And Lisa is so amazing, as well!

[smackfan4ever]

@WickedMagickIV right on..sully's vocal range is phenomenal

[sirlockness]

Sounds jsut like godsmack. Not that thats a bad thing but why do a solo that is similar?

[degroot1981]

He has one of the best voices in the music industry right now.

[JJTT1991]

wow it is just a amazing song i cant think of anything else to discribe it

[simmonsnick315]

CAN YOU FEEL IT?? I DO!!!!

[Vlad0Dracul]

Amazing song, amazing album... I can't wait for this!

[freefallcanada1]

Avalon, release date Sept 14!!

[Teskue]

Sully is so awesome!!

[phlobus620]

Sully has said many times that Dead Can Dance is his favorite band and will be a major influence in his new album. Artists don't have to re-invent music every time they make a new album. The whole point of music is to listen, admire and improve on in future creations.

Anyways... This is an awsome song and the album is going to be amazing!!

[SuperLAFWorld]

@Arkle666 I am shocked you know Days of the New.. cuz I rarely find ppl that do let alone see a comment on em in another band's video.

But please stop arguing in a comments section.. It's pointless and immature.

[Morlack115]

@Arkle666 Bad, troll is bad. Plz L2troll before attempting the act of trolling.

[lunaticredhead]

@Arkle666 Seriously........do you go to all of the Godsmack/Sully Erna videos/songs and post whiny little remarks about how they're ripping off other bands? You need a new hobby, and as for ripping off other bands, there are as many ways to express oneself through music as there are people on this planet, those of us who enjoy listening to songs that make us think know that and we have a much broader base than you. The solution? Open your mind and truly listen.

[fcfcbarcafcfc]

I think i have the answer why sully has lower rating than artist like justin beiber. Because retards dont like to think within a song they can achieve this by listerning to justin beiber etc. With sully and godsmack you have to think about the lyrics.

this proves there are too many retards in the world giving there votes up to dogshit.

[Arkle666]

unbelievable , not happy with ripping alice in chains off with godsmack ,hes now ripping travis meeks days of the new off ,meeks has been doing this dead can dance world music accoustic since 1999. just listen to 'days of the new 2 green album' , unoriginal mr godsmack

[Warlockkilla2]

@Arkle666 Man your ignorant. Fuck off out of the video if you hate him so much. If not, don't hate an artist for expressing himself. It is people like you who suck dicks in the middle of the night and yet maintain a "I'm not gay." Attitude. Get the fuck off the video.

As for the song, it is awesome.

[GordoDustin]

@Arkle666 so because someone else has done something similar, that means this style is now off limits? Who gives a damn if someone else has done it before. Just because its the same style doesn't mean he's ripping it off. It means he was inspired by it. dumbass

[kellen289]

@Arkle666 History lesson, Sully never ripped off Alice in Chains. He named his band after an Alice in Chains song because he loved that song and loves Alice in Chains. He never ripped them off. Also, how did he rip this song off? By using tribal drums? Boo-FUCKING-hoo, Sully is really intro tribal drums and always wanted to do music that involved them. He never ripped anyone off. You're just trying to antagonize people into fighting.

[TheGodsmackchick]

@kellen289 actually he named the band godsmack because of a comment someone had made to him. the band was doin a photo shoot and he was makin fun of someone and the next day he showed up with a giant pimple on his face. someone said that it was a "smack in the face from god" hence godsmack. and as for the tribal drums....well thats just sully :-)

[metallikat01]

@TheGodsmackchick well said bout time someone that knows a little music history

[TheGodsmackchick]

@metallikat01 I read his book. was an awesome read... explains alot of the lyrics in their work. the only band i probably know more about than them is aerosmith

[kellen289]

@TheGodsmackchick Ah, okay well thanks for correcting me. I thought he named the band from an Alice in Chains song. I never heard that story before. So thanks for correcting me. And your right, the tribal drums is just Sully.

[brownsfan271]

@kellen289 actually ur both right, he named the band temporarilly from AIC then when the whole cold sore thing happened the name stuck

[JuicedBoi]

This is on the Deluxe Edition of The Oracle as well as his solo album. Great song!

[SoulShadeMadyod]

this song is fantastic, cnt w8 for the album in september XD

[Samadhiatman500]

This song kicks serious ass. I just went to a Veteran Memorial Run today and it is fitting.

[FFMcFuch]

Sully could sing the phone book and it'd kick ass

[drummerjamesamit]

@FFMcFuch loved your comment bro..............u understand our love for sully

[mercurywater10]

@FFMcFuch this is true dude!

[tropicalluv89]

@FFMcFuch TRUE.

[DrOhcysp]

@FFMcFuch How about the dictionary?

[NaruenX]

it sounds like Serenity a little bit xDD

[xntrickk]

another great song, i might just have to get this cd...

[sullyswytch]

sully has out done hiself on the cd. cant wait ........thank you sully.

[blaizingstar1]

Bon Jovi never rocked like this Sully is one of the most talented ever!!! Love it

[zarman189]

begining sounds like Bon Jovi alittle... I like it.

[fcfcbarcafcfc]

Sully is such a realistic common grounded guy, i have alot of respect for him

[giants202]

I absolutely love this, but couple vocal parts from this distinctly stick out as very very similar to his band, Godsmack's The Oracle album. Just an observation.

I find Sully to be one of my favorite musicians and i believe he is such a talented singer so Congrats on the new album.

[TeleTiaVision]

This song is awesome! I already hear other songs of Avalon and this song is my favorite! And just Google BREAKSHOT, enter on their MySpace and listen one of the greatest bands of the moment! Listen the song Turning!

[tarrken]

I can't wait for the DC to release

[TeleTiaVision]

I'm the vocalist of BREAKSHOT and I can say that Sully Erna is my favorite singer.

[Tasferin]

Sully is, most simply put, a God. He can single-handedly play every part in a band, as well as sing with such.... melody and rythm. No single Singer can compare to him.

[GodsmacKam]

OHH, could you send me a link to that picture or where ya got it, that is an amazing PIC!!

[GodsmacKam]

one word...WOW...godsmack and sully for life \m/ oh and lisa guyer (female singer) \m/

[AStarrzzgrl]

This man is the most Amazing man ever. Very Talented Artist! He voice is like a saint! I am very excited about his solo Album.

[xxbittxx]

godsmack is my favorite band and now cant wait for sully's solo album to drop around the the time as the expendables comes out. i have high expectations for this album.

[bfmvfan29]

great song! Can't wait for Avalon!

[XxDomiiixX]

Sully got a solo album... dont know

whats the name?

[markyspieceofass]

Cant wait for his solo cd September 14th!! WAHOO!!!!

[20yungteeyork08]

this song is really fucking good. i cant wait til his solo album comes out in september. im so excited.

[1030sqrpio]

he's really tallented, and he has a extraordinary voice :X i wish i could be just 10 procents like him.. :X:X:X

[tdelong87]

it sounds like what robert plant did with that women way back in the day but sully is one of my favor singers of all time he is just amazing

[Retauros]

Reminds me of "War & Peace" from The Oracle

But whatever man i like every single one of Sully's songs.

[Sgthavoc12]

@Retauros you've gotta be kidding me

[Retauros]

@Sgthavoc12 listen to 1:15 and then listen to the refrain of war and peace. the only thing missing here is "my temptation" but it sounds just A LITTLE BIT like war and peace. really, it does for me. but only a little fucking bit.

[smackme0]

I love sully(nohomo) and everything he sings he is amazing.

[Lizizayoyo]

Sully Erna=Amazing singer/composer.

This..is a GREAT song,and I can't wait to get my hands on the C.D and share it with my friends.

[DruNation]

Has a middle eastern vibe to it...

[bizkitmaniac]

my idol....

[godsmackrulz1]

sully sure knows how to make kick ass music whether it be this or godsmack

keep it up sully

[mannyfromsudden]

albulm comes out in sept.

[420themetal]

it sounds like voodoo i was hoping for maybe something new i love godsmack and all but i think he should have done something different

[brotfahrer1688]

hat ähnlichkeit mit VOODOO...respeckt!!!
