Gonna Get Close To You - Queensryche

[1vishousglow]

This song is sexy, and it makes me wanna....get close to someone

[jrkfacedkiller]

These chicks are fucking ugly.

[schmittelt]

It's blurry. Hard to tell, but please tell me that Lisa is playing the girl in this video.

[1234567806027]

love this video,like totaly awesome

[Tic0nX]

Step 1: Acquire boombox.

Step 2: Find person you are stalking's place of residence or out in public area where they might be.

Step 3: Play this song.

Step 4: Get a restraining order with their signature.

Step 5: Frame it.

You're welcome.

[rfal502]

he looks a little like Christopher Walken

[Ratt2004]

This song made my a Ryche n roller 8 years ago, and I am PROUD to be a fan today

[kevyk135]

When I first saw this video being a head banging kid, I did not know what to make of this song. This was like a synth pop metal thing but so different and cool and I never heard anything like it at that point. They were so different in the beginning.

[Piscesryche]

@kevyk135 they are always different

[rycheandroll]

Ryche and fucken roll!

[kushisaac]

so maybe 1988 or 89, my wife brings home this strange album she said some lady gave her on the bus, on the cover is a lady's face covered in makeup, bright reds and yellows, like tribal face paint and it says Dabello, and this song was on it along with some other really good material. all this time I thought we had come across some undiscovered jewel of talent, apparently not...Queensryche, Heart. really cool hearing the covers

[jas22]

@kushisaac what did Heart cover of Dalbello? thanks.

[3Storms]

The lesson in this video: being a crazed stalker while sporting a super-mullet will land you your dream girl

[joediver1119]

This has to be the most fucked up creepy ass song ever recorded. Ted Bundy calling.

[nitwitbit]

When I think of creepy songs, the one that comes to mind is 'Obsession' by Siouxsie and the Banshees. Also 'Blow the house down' again by Siouxsie

[joeyleestorm]

6 ppl didnt like Geoff getting too close to them...

[Piscesryche]

@joeyleestorm they are really stupid then...he smells great!

[gallantentry]

Geoff Tate had one of the greatest pompadours ever!

[john91722]

One of the great creepy songs from a superb band,

[haykym]

Thanks Evan..enjoyed it and.. I'm not scared :-P

[Kangsryche]

Masterful.

[omarisgurl4life]

this is the best stalker song ever!!! i listen to this while i stalk people. LMAO!!

[konevnin]

Not much to say except Wow!!! Nothing today can touch this artistic, well written lyrics and music!!  What happened? Did I just get old?

[sinister99gt]

@konevnin there are some good bands out there , you just dont hear them on the radio. i dont belive most people these days can process this type of music

[sinister99gt]

@konevnin people dont seem to have the time to listen , i think most people like mindless radio backround noise. bands like this need you to pay attention ,

[maddanslab]

fuck yeah hot!! 

[navysquid72]

a good friend was wearing a rage for order shirt at work one day and i asked him what band was that... after he got off the floor from almost passing out. he told me it was queensryche. i said who? he got pissed. so the other day at work he brought me all of there tapes and said here get to know them and the tapes are yours..... loved this band till i die

[MsTubeWhore]

Up next: Hanson -Save Me music video? Yeah....i'll get right on that.

[MsTubeWhore]

I'm still in the womb and watching this vid! All the other fetuses out there don't know shit about good music!

[thefunkyhammer]

Scott Rockenfield's drum fill for the win Alex.

[wtf111884]

please stalk me

[dpmistabones]

@xaydnpa, I suppose he shoud have worn the bed head hairstyles of today? At least he had his voice figured out in '83 !

[xaydnpa]

geoff didnt get his hair figured out til empire

[internetmachine]

creeper in the window! fap fap fap

[meriatonB]

This is one of the hottest videos ever. YUM. Geoff can stalk me anytime.

[meriatonB]

This is one of the hottest videos ever. YUM.

[GypsyFairy85]

I wanna get close!

[SkullVodka]

Audio is poor.  Too bad, good song.

[1stormella]

THIS IS THE BEST . I WISH HE WOULD GET CLOSE TO ME LOL

[scorpiorising1000]

I wish Geoff Tate would stalk me.

[Iron0rchid]

@scorpiorising1000 The 80s geoff or geoff now? jus' sayin' :P

[miladoveeyes1125]

@Iron0rchid 80's most def.

[okwaho13]

I used to listen to this song before I went out on patrols when I was in the Army. Kinda got me into the mood....lol

[ProximaB]

Reminds me of the original Lost Boys movie. Cool.

[123AshleeLynn]

@ProximaB Love that movie. Come to think of it, you're right. It really does:)

[silversurfer0617]

can you say " restraining order "?

[TSWfilms]

my tits are salty

[ezdog0072]

Is this the number one theme song for the "stalker's" handbook? LOL JK... or am I? He says with a maniacal laugh, "Hoo Hoo Ha Ha Haaaaaa"!! Now, I'm picturing "Beavis and Butthead" in the background saying, "HUH HUH, he said... Hoo Hoo". LOL

[loliver12]

I remember when this video came out...the best day of my life!!!!

[mlmh75]

ahhh.....stalking was never so sexy...... awesome song....

[ninanightnurse]

very sexy song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ENEMENCIO123VISION]

i'm only 3 years old and i love this song... what does age have to do with anything...? i guess you get all kinds...

[wonderbread619]

they look like they would play as bad guys in a movie or something

[Jpcook12]

I was raised to this and i am only 15 this music helps me live

[1985SuperFan]

So so good. . .

But damn, have you heard their new side project?

So fucking cool. . . i just searched Parker Lundgren, their new guitarist,

on iTunes for shits and giggles. . . the song is soooooo good. Called Don't wake me up. I got shivers.

[TheHAMMER91]

I don't think any band besides Queensryche can get emotions like this across to their listeners. This and Suite Sister Mary are just creepy songs! I LOVE IT! Bands REALLY need to tap into this forgotten art

[pilotamurorei]

@TheHAMMER91

Not to mention this song is about stalking a woman. No group nowadays has the balls to write a song about stalking women.

[Basileus84]

@pilotamurorei This song was written by a woman called Lisa Dalbello Look up a couple of her videos.  They did a pretty good version, but if you want "creepy" check out her video of this song.

[dylanskriloff]

@Basileus84

Ha! That's true, her version is like psyyyycho ... this one is creepy-romantic

[dylanskriloff]

@Basileus84

Actually she performed it, it was written by someone else, name escapes me, but a famous person

[Basileus84]

@dylanskriloff No Lisa Dalbello wrote the song. She has also written songs for Heart.

[ponygirl007007]

outside your balcony I have a room with a view and I'm watching you give me chills.

[apple201041]

cool band

[yojames85]

how nice to see that my all-time favorite band is still appreciated...i'm 47 and grew up with these guys...and they are still my favorite band of all time! my personal opinion is that Rage for Order and Operation:Mindcrime are their best cds....and to the 13 year old? YOU ROCK-keep jammin and listening to your daddy!

[BodhiSvaha]

4:00 it begins. 4:03 is the peak. lol. that is as inconceivable as it is incomprehensible. funniest shit ever.

[sergeantcortez]

Not sure how exactly, but this video has just validated 80s hair a little bit for me.

[1dogsrock]

Geoff Tate is acually kinda hott in this video!

[neongrey101]

I like this version better then the Dalbello version.

[apple201041]

i love this song,its old but its cool.

[coldgirl07]

Yummmy

[savafan95]

it has a weird stalker theme goin thru it. its weird but it get better after a while into it.

[attempt198]

If you guys like this you should listen to the stuff on Operation Mind Crime and The Warning - this is just silly compared to their good stuff.

[sarayasilvers]

THis is when I first met them :)

[redheadriot118]

i seen them in concert opening up for Ozzy...i was about 16 or so...good times!

[apple201041]

i love this video,geoff is a real cutie!!!!

[Alsazoosh1]

This Song Rocks! I love these guys!

[ComedianDaveKemp]

Geoff Tate is absolutely amazing. I LOVE Queensryche, though his solo stuff I strongly suggest you stay away from it if you're a big fan.

[bruinsfan31]

i want degarmos outfit

[motoguzzigriso]

I totally forgot about this song/Video from Queensryche. Hearing it raised the hair on the back of my neck! Totally awesome.

[kingdiamond69]

When this song came out i wasnt a big fan of it but over the years ive warmed up to it rage for order was an awesome cd killing words infra red etc great stuff.

[velvetsnape]

LOVE this song! Love his voice!

[rog197236]

It's to bad the the mighty Ryche did not make any more videos from this classic album.Just imagin if they made videos for other jems like screaming in digital or better yet the killing words.Rage For Order is my all time favorite!!!!!

[HighnessVaako]

I loved this song from the first time I heard it. I listened to it anytime I had a crush going on. These guys were so underrated it isnt funny.

[puacino]

Awesome band!

[cremington11]

I think its their best and misunderstood

[RockTheOcean4me]

I think it's the weirdest song they made but unique and really good.

[DePieuw16]

Agreed! It's sung so good, it's almost scary... imagine a stalker like that, brrrrr.....

[mcscheijgrond79]

This song sounds very futuristic it even sounds new and refreshing these days, only lisa dal bello is a better vocalist than geoff tate, doed anybody knows what lisa del bello is doin'today?

[johnstonebreaker]

A better vocalist? That isn't possible!

[RangRing68]

Geoff Tate, one of the great metal vocalists!

[terrorofdeath93]

this always reminds me of ophelia's faction in brutal legend.

[frostblade10]

I like this song a lot but sometimes i get the feeling that Geoff Tate is going to try to rape me when alone haha.

[terrorofdeath93]

@frostblade10 .......im just gonna go bolt all my windows shut, dont mind me.

[dw1248]

Love this song! Just heard Dalbello's original verson, was so creepy, I had to log off of it! I like Queensryche's version much better!

[d15civic]

this is that jam,hes stalking that bitch tho

[bobbie4]

My Gawd,

This is the first I've ever heard of this version.

Definately a different take on Dalbello.

Interesting....

[silkshadowdragon]

Rage is my 2nd Fav from the Ryche, my fav is Mindcrime, but the songs on Rage are great, almost as good as Mindcrime, but how can you beat Eyes of a Stranger and Suite Sister Mary? 1 and 3 best albums of all time #2 ended up going to Dream Theater's Images and Words

[senseigomez]

yes, very under-rated album. this band is soooo good its ridiculous. saw them live about 10 times. and will continue to go, Tate still has the pipes

[rduquet]

Sensei, you've seen them 10 times!!! Wow, you are a true "Ryche" fan! Check out my Ryche Channel,,,

rduquet

[Zandar616]

Somebody must verify this: Isnt there a version of this song where Geoff has this shrieking orgasmic fit before the song starts?

[MVRWC]

rage is absolutely a great album but this is a stalker video, lmao. and is that some kind of super mullet??

[blindcynic]

wicked wicked song.

[shadowspeedline]

one of the best songs

[123AshleeLynn]

Amazing! I'm thirteen years old :)

Nobody in my school listens to good music like this, just me.

My daddy taught me well!

[shadowspeedline]

lol my dad only listens to rock so i listen to it

[123AshleeLynn]

Same, haha.

My dad would kill me if I listened to any rap or something lol.

[rycheaholic]

@123AshleeLynn

Your Daddy taught you very well! :)

[neongrey101]

@123AshleeLynn Forget some of the new music that's out there look into most of the music that's out there in the past.

[123AshleeLynn]

@neongrey101 You're so right! I'm an oldies lover. I can't help it! (:

[MrPeannut]

@123AshleeLynn YOU HAVE VERY GOOD TASTE IN MUSIC YOU'RE ONLY 13 KEEP ROCKIN YOUR DADDY'S GOOD MAN

[123AshleeLynn]

@MrPeannut Thank you and I know (: He's awesome for raising me with the right stuff

[AnEsotericMind]

@MrPeannut

Your comment is sooooooo wrong.

This is why punctuation is important!

[lay1998]

@123AshleeLynn You dad has excellent taste... heed his words!

[123AshleeLynn]

@lay1998 He does! Always:) thanks!

[tdupuy]

@123AshleeLynn Yes he did!!

[CobArchEnemy406]

@123AshleeLynn lol

[NASCAR90]

@123AshleeLynn I am 20 I was born in 1990 and I love Hard Rock and Heavy Metal too death I began listening to Hard Rock and Heavy Metal at the age of three my parents taught me well and I am loyal to Metal meaning thats all I listen to end of storry

[123AshleeLynn]

@NASCAR90 Both my parents listen to Queensryche, so mine definitely taught me well, as well as yours :) I just wish more people our ages listened to this kind of music. Maybe we wouldn't have the problems we do with youth music, and in the schools. And maybe the music clubs wouldn't be frowned upon by everybody. Keep rocking, I know I will :)

[uzickimajmunac]

@123AshleeLynn fuck off, pedophile

[123AshleeLynn]

@uzickimajmunac Actually I'm sure pedophiles' are age 16 or older (adults)

and seeing whereas I'm only 14, that can't be true.

Have a nice night xx

[uzickimajmunac]

@123AshleeLynn <----50 YEARS OLD PEDOPHILE! BEWARE YOUNG BOYS!

[YusukeTomB]

@123AshleeLynn He certainly did teach you well! Keep listening to the good stuff!!!

[123AshleeLynn]

@YusukeTomB He took me to see them live for the American Soldier tour like a year ago I think it was. I'll always listen to this! When I'm older my kids will, too! :-)

[AndreaShrek403]

I LOVE geoff tate...he has an amazing voice and he is hot in this video....

[Glenn86314]

@AndreaShrek403 I seem to recall someone telling me he's quite educated in vocal.

[SmittyHeWasNumber1]

Is this a cartoon?

[MegaMosesman]

GT has an awesome voice that has really not been replicated anywhere. This brings back stacks of memories for me back in the mid/late 80's taking my O levels. Happy days. Real music

[mheatwole18]

the singer for power of omens sounds EXACTLY like Geoff Tate, he recently played in a band that did the entire operation mindcrime album in atlanta. I believe Pam may have sung then too , she lives in Atlanta

[hammr25]

Now I know why this is the worst song on Rage for Order. It was a cover.

[pilotamurorei]

Now I know why you aren't a true Queensryche fan. Rage is considered to be one of their best albums, next to Mindcrime 1.

[hammr25]

This is actually my favorite Queensryche album. I just hate this particular song.

[dylanskriloff]

What, I love this tune~! (New fan here)

[MrLeagueOJustice]

Yes yes yes

[MikeScott32]

The original version of this song is too creepy to like.

[RangRing68]

Geoff Tate one of the greatest rock vocalists ever!

[noproblemgettinglaid]

I wish he would get close to me?

[kolz4ever1980]

And you're asking that because?

[ikonxp]

Queensryche is one of the most underrated bands of all time and yet one of the best

[LEO1WOLF]

Not hating, but mos' def' not one of 'ryche's best. Didn't care for the arrangement at all. Though Mr. Tate always shows his incredible Vocal Range (me = a bit envious on that level). L.o.L.  But seriously, I'm going to have to listen to the original, to get a real feel for the tune. Again, NOT hating.

Peace y'all. . .

-Lone Wolf

[valotwin]

Vampires! and Queensryche! A great combination...

[junova702]

Vampires Ya a great combo for Queensryche, but Queensryche are not or never where a Goth band......

[browniebowl]

This song use to scare the hell out of my little sister! Such a cool song!

[ItachiLuver666]

im 16 and ive seen them already 4times.The first time i ever saw them was with Judas priest when i was 11 almost 12.

It was awesome. Queensryche is my fav band ever.

[keytarpimp]

Great song. Great album.

[Loheartz]

I have seen them in concert over 5 times. ever since i was 10.

Geoff Tate's voice is mesmerizing. It gives me chills. it's incredible.

[cobrafyre2008]

you think that is cool meet him in person. White hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ponygirl007007]

Yes his voice is powerful saw them in concert twice. I wish I could of saw them do Operation:Mindcrime 1&2.

[TruthUnderFire]

Man I love this tune. This album and Mindcrime have to be their best ever.

Geoff is God.

[magneteye]

anyone have a better quality version of this?

[chrisnewhook111]

Try the songwriter's original version - Dalbello. She will bend your mind. Queensryche, while doing a great job of it, is playing essententially the same arrangement.

[chrishaughaboo]

You are my Favorite by far!

[dirtyratmiller]

Try Peter Gabriel, No Self Control...

[thefunkyhammer]

Best drum break EVER! (4:04)

[dokkcrue71]

Totally Real Music Here !!! 5 Classic Stars !!!

[sideways545]

I worked on this music video back in the 80's..I was a production assistant (grunt)..it was a blast to work on. We worked on this for 24 hrs straight. I remember sweeping up some stuff on the set and the guitarist felt bad for me and took the broom from my hands and started sweeping!! He was very sweet. Kinda harsh music for my taste but after listening to this song at least 75 times while working on it I became a fan..and still am for what nice guys they were.

[ixisxrxmrxhappy]

u r kick ass! was tates voice as powerful in person?

[Poindexter0809]

My husband and I met them at a Meet & Greet in Vegas and they were all so nice and down to earth. It's refreshing isn't it?

[DelfigMark]

very...stalkerish...but a good song

[lorena7318]

.......................a seis pasos!

[piqwry71]

Every girl i date i make a mix cd with this song on it and they break up with me i dont know why then the cops arrest me!!

[hern41]

hahaha thats a good one he does have that angelina look

[420bud4life]

hell yeah!!

queensryche is the sh!t

[CobArchEnemy406]

Excellent stuff right here. long live 80`s metal.

[asuniko]

maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right, maybe I'm some kinda lunatic...

..but I think queensryche rules ;-)

[raymondreich]

I love Queensryche! :)

Faves:

Walk In The Shadows, Take Hold Of The Flame, Silent Lucidity, Eyes Of A Stranger, alot more, Geoff is if not the nest, he is one of the best for sure:)

[GerCal77]

This is the ultimate stalker song. Great song though. I was like 9 when it came out, they were a great band till about empire, Is there anybody listening? was in my opinion there last great song, wasn't much in to silent lucidity.

[RogOcean4ever]

This song rocks make you wonder if queesnryche could pull off an industrial progressive metal sound off you have to admit this comes pretty close to being industrial type of sound just a little bit......oh yeah and stop fighting over stupid shit this song is good you know it i know it but other people dont like it that is there opinion be the bigger man and walk away

[PetruoFan]

I love both versions. The QR cover is great and IMO Dalbello is one of the best female voices over there, her latest album "Whore" is great.

[ShadowLadyLost]

I absolutely agree!!!

[CaptainAmerica4Ever]

i love Queensryche! these guys are amazing live and put so much passion into their albums,lyrics,performances im shocked people DONT like intelligent meanful lyrics ,awesome musicans,guess some people are just never happy,well fuck off,cause QR kicks ass...enough said and

zapwatt u make me fucking LOL big time at ur ignorance queensryche illiterate nerd music? grow up dude,and they are the thinking mans metal so they are way to deep and sophisticated for your little mind,good day

[monkeyjumbo345]

i agree too man hes a bitch

[alkie2008]

Nobody else could have taken a Lisa Dalbello song and made it this great.

[NASCAR90]

Metal for ever Metal will never die rap sucks

[PetruoFan]

maybe it's a little bit flooding, but yeah! RAP SUX!

[aabbccw]

popooo ti agoraros eisai geoff
