Yngwie Malmsteen - Icarus' Dream Suite Opus 4 (HD, Excellent sound)

[Frank15672]

What a bad song and a stupid guitarist !!! <== This is what he said before i hit him :-)

[DeathscreamSERBIA]

does someone know the tab for the acoustic part at 2:28 ??

[TheMarksman98]

@DeathscreamSERBIA Low E 0 then B 0 then High E 0 then 3 then B 0 then high E 2 then B 3 then G 2 then low E 0 then G 2 then B 3 then low E 0 then G 0 then low E 0 then B 1 then G 0 then B 0 and all on low E 2 3 2 0 and then B 3 You can also find it on Google

[MetalionSOS]

Is that some classical piece at around 1:45? I KNOW I've heard it somewhere before. It's been bugging me for years!

[krelbar]

@MetalionSOS That melody is a direct rip off of Adagio in G minor. The song was used in the movie Gallipoli.

[GraveDiggaGSXR1000]

He's the best of all time . No contest

[ArkadievPeru]

8:34 I wanna have sex right now!

[Freesqare]

I actually broke out in tears listening to this

[lovetrash504]

[amitab123marwaha]

whatever anyone may say, to me the people who created this music are GODS among Humans. Period.

[munkherdebe]

YNGWIE WHO?

YNGWIE FUCKING MALMSTEEN

THAT'S WHO!

[view1210]

his guitar sounds like a horrible scratchy detuned violin

[ubershredder1989]

@view1210 yet his playing makes up for it

[Beansticks]

YNGWIE FUCKING MALMSTEEN!!!

[DST654]

Not in an offending meaning, I love this guy, and no matter what...whether stressed, or frustrated... I can sleep so easily whenever I listen to this song, and I do suffer a lot because of my sleeping problems. medicine right there <3

[megadethzeppelin]

[killyou45]

Next time you're listening to some silly Yngwie hater saying "all he can do is shred, he sucks. No feel at all!"....Show them Icarus' Dream Suite Op. 4 and their argument is instantly rendered invalid.

[stiltonchees]

@killyou45 I find it's already an invalid argument. Unless there is some way of proving the amount of feel put in, even in the stuff he does that I find more on the mindless side I would imagine he puts emotion in. So then the question is if the listener gets an emotional connection, that has more to do with personal taste. Technique has subjective elements but I'd say it's more objective, and in that sense saying Yngwie sucks would be idiotic. This is my favorite of his work though I think.

[akudal964]

@killyou45 i did it once, i won :)

[PietroRumenta]

@killyou45 Damn right, it's like you've read my mind, as just today on the train I did that to a friend of mine and linked him this song some minute ago!

[BeamRider100]

@killyou45 for sure its a socialist plot to villify outstanding individuals.

[69atomheart]

i would have sex with him so i could tell people i slept with a god

[killyou45]

@69atomheart LMAO.

[yerhere123]

süßigkeiten fur die Ohren

[paulkocabay1]

some has it, some don't. Simple as that! Don't try to figure it out.

[Kalel19711]

Personally I really like "Brothers" off The Seventh Sign!!!! But this song is really good as well!!!:))

[abhimanue79]

[SID480]

[ImSoDumbMyHeadHurts]

@SID480 you suck.

[MatusMajernik]

Words cannot describe the feelings which come from this song...

[IllusionalGuitarist]

Yngiwe is very good but he needs more soul.

[MatusMajernik]

@IllusionalGuitarist R U retarded?

[IllusionalGuitarist]

@MatusMajernik this song has soul his others do not

[advokatas1]

This is so beutiful

[kokeep]

this is my first learned quitar song and have to say, dont be like me, its like hell with all those arpeggios and scales :)

btw this is so -90's but h*ll im from -70's and this is prolly best songs ever

[TDCNO674956]

This is his best work overall, who plays better?

[megadethzeppelin]

is it not the greatest thing ever written?

[WayfstrthnU]

Has there ever been a greater master of electric AND acoustic guitar!? I have not seen anybody else perform so magnificently on both instruments, within the same song!

[AlbertWidjaja]

5:59 - 6:18 is the climax !!!

[RedBev59]

This is the 5th song on his Rising Force Album. Love it. Play it ALOT. Play this whole CD alot!! Such a beautiful song! Goosebumps! Crying in parts......alot of emotions are bought out in me hearing this!

[MrYngwie88]

the best song ever with yngwie , i love all songs with yngwie but this is one uinqe

[SNAZZYGOLDFISHES]

holy shit.

[dandypajamas]

As a les paul player, these tracks make me feel very lonely.

[gunnerslash]

The acoustic section just blows me away. Awesome, brilliant...just fantastic

[agthunder69]

Wow I love this song. Yngwie I just cryed This is music for the gods.

[LS2Goat500]

This guy was known for the shred. Yet that beautiful melody is still felt, while he does the slow stuff. Too bad he arpeggiated too much. 4:34. He loves the classical, and that I really like.

Marty Friedman "Scenes" is another unappreciated Gem like this album was.

I LOVE this song!! Brilliant Yngwie! Bravo!

[prankovalero]

I don't even like Yngwie...but this is just stunning.

[0zzyfan44]

Amazing!!

To epic!!

[wuzzumadduhyou]

I almost got the burnt guitar he threw into the crown in Columbus, Ohio back in '87 I think it was. The guards broke up the fight for it and stripped it away. I learned how to play most of his songs on my guit fiddle, though. I like Yngwie. I named my wiener dog Yngwie. I call him Yngwiener dog! He can't play guitar though. His arms are too short.

[GraveDiggaGSXR1000]

Amazing.....simply amazing

[slashlespaul89]

2:30 EPIC!!!

[achromat666]

It is still his most beautiful composition in my mind. The first album is like a Shrapnel instruction guide. A great debut album.

I saw Yngwie on the trilogy tour with Soto singing shortly after Boals was let go the first time opening for Iron Maiden on the Somwhere in Time tour. And my first show. Walked home going deaf but the happiest day of my life at the time.

[BeamRider100]

@achromat666 What, Malmsteen opened for Maiden ?, sounds like a great night.

I remember learning this song in the late 80s and my mum started humming ahead of me, as the intro is a famous classical piece, that annoyed me at the time.

[achromat666]

@BeamRider100 Yes, years ago during the Somewhere in Time tour for Maiden, and the Trilogy tour for Yngwie, when I was still in HS and when there was still a Capital Center in MD. It was my first show and an absolute blast.

[JizzForBritain]

i jizzed.

[DragonsFeir666]

wwwaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooooooooo­ooooooooo yyeaaaaa

finley a real version of this great track thanks and koodos to uploader

[maziku]

this is quite possibly one of the best pieces of music ever. sometimes i want to kill myself when i hear it because its so beautiful i shouldnt be able to hear this. im not good enough or worthy.

[amitab123marwaha]

@maziku It would be an honour for me to learn and play this on guitar

[hk19950329]

best...............

[MADEINMAIDEN]

WHEN I DIE THIS SONG IS GOING TO BE PLAYED FOR ME.

[simbasa12]

2 beiber fans.....ok enough of that crap. Great tune.

[Earnhardt12345]

@simbasa12 3 beiber fans now.. Where do these "dislikes" come from? They have no taste.

[MusicSam63]

@Earnhardt12345 its not beiber fans, they probably dont know who yngwie is.the dislikes come from people who are jealous they can't play as good or dont know shit about music

[PeturHinrik]

@MusicSam63 Or people like me, who just dislike his work. I'm way way more into good bass players. But, regardless, I came here because someone told me this was a more "modern" version of adiago. I'm not impressed, nor have I ever been with his work.

[MusicSam63]

@PeturHinrik i play guitar and bass so i like good bass players as well, but i don't like say (rudy sarzo for instance) well i wouldn't go there a hit dislike, i just wouldn,t go there. but thats me.

[xCMxMach]

@PeturHinrik for any 25 year old to make music like this, the overlapping and stacked guitars, the bass lines and the drums, i would say that's impressive on any level and only a moron would disagree, I'm not saying to like his work, but if you're going to sit there and say this doesn't impress you, then you have issues and need to step off your high horse.

[ryan49er1]

@xCMxMach I agree....but even if yngwie was deaf and blind and only had 2 fingers on each arm and played this...there will always be that one person who isn't impressed

[xCMxMach]

@ryan49er1 true that, haters gonna hate.

[badbearr]

Nice version of the Adagio in G minor of Tommaso Albinoni

[TheStathoulakos]

@badbearr the solos are on E armonic minor..but the dom of the song is G you re right!

[Darkarch87]

@badbearr i totally agree

[DesperadoBrett]

AWESOME!

SPETTACOLARE! Please see: Una Furtiva Lagrima - Donizetti

[jlbroich]

Jeeze I remember taking acid and hearing this song fuck I felt like I was in a magical forest omfg it was amazing

[TheSniperOfChaos]

the greatest song I ever heard, it's..... beautiful

[urssglory]

great yngwie..this song is emotion

[ubershredder1989]

if yngwie wasnt an arrogant selfcentered asshole, there is no way he would have made it so far in rock music. he'd just be another incredible player shredding in his bedroom

[MrVucke]

@ubershredder1989 damn right! someone finally pointed it out,greetings from Serbia!

[AmericanThunder]

@ubershredder1989 Randy Rhoads was a very humble, genuinely nice person, and Yngwie thinks Rhoads was legendary enough for him to take the time to write a flattering foreword in the new documentary book about Rhoads called "Crazy Train".

[ubershredder1989]

@AmericanThunder you dont know whether a person is nice or not unless u know them in person. paul gilbert seems like a cool, goofy guy, but ive heard from countless people who met him personally that he was very unpleasant, arrogant, and a complete asshole. sure yngwie may have more of the rockstar ego going, but its all for his image. have a look at some of his interviews, he seems like a very chilled down to earth chap, that you could go fishing with...

[AmericanThunder]

@ubershredder1989 I read the documentary about Rhoads, so I was simply relaying the stated information by people who knew him. Also, I wasn't saying Yngwie is or isn't a douche, I was simply responding to your comment and giving an example of a person who wasn't an "arrogant self-centered asshole" and yet is still legendary and world-known. On a side note; I really enjoy Yngwie's playing, I think he's phenomenal, regardless of whether he's a douche or not.

[dragonballdbz]

@ubershredder1989 How ironical is that that only arrogant selfcentered people progress to great heights. Steve Jobs is another example.

[ubershredder1989]

@dragonballdbz its not ironic at all. its life. i don't kno steve jobs personally... neither do i kno yngwie... but i am sure, yngwie is a real nice guy if u kno him PERSONALLY.... paul gilbert may seem like a cool, goofy, funny guy, but i heard alot of people say who met him in person, that he's really unpleasant...

[custardpiekashmir]

@ubershredder1989

i'm not agreeing on the fact that yngwie is an arrogant selfcentered asshole whatsoever.

BUT the bedroom argument? come on, if i were a selfcentered asshole i'd be doing the same thing, cash and stuff..

[yngwie8]

from 5:17 sounds very sad lol the tune ,dont wana get into that atmosphere dudes i rather have the rush speed n strengths ,i dont mind disciples of health etc lol

[TheShredfester]

Is this not Breathtaking Soulwrenching Beautiful Sadness Melodic Joyful make other guitarist jealous of the King of Shred song!!!???...I got it under control, trust me, we do this all the time...Yngwie J. Malmsteen is a MONSTER!!!

[gawdimir]

AMAZING!!!

[hmack1234]

He may have said some arrogant things along the way, but, damn folks, this song is incredible! Yngwie deserves his credit due...

[GruppeSechs2004]

@hmack1234 He may be an asshole, but he does have the chops to back him up! Remember people: If you are an arrogant, egomaniac with a typical rock-star attitude, then you better be just as good as Malmsteen!

[bachinblack94]

from 0:52 to 2:22 is the Tommaso Albinoni Adagio for Organ and Strings in G Minor covered on guitar. All the rest is the Icarus Dream Suite from the Master Yngwie Malmsteen.

[1tanterhetaida2]

The picture of him is fugly.

[goyana]

With all respect to Malmsteen and the way he is playing this.... It is a cover. From Albinoni. ;-)

[perpetual61]

@goyana The Intro is Adagio from Tomaso Albinoni but the Rest is his Own Composition.

[yngwiemalmsteen8]

the first part is adagio,later is a malmsteen composition

[chhrriissss]

this become to one of my favortie songs :D

such melodic how can people hate him -.- !!!

This songs has so much emotion so much feeling i love to listen this

yngwie is my GOD

[AntJackD]

Absolutely beautiful song... a showcase of yngwies beautiful composing skills

[elderdeathknight]

GOD WHAT AN AWESOME TRACK OF MALMSTEEN ..... REALLY AMAZING MELODY

[EvaVanderova]

Do Kladiva je to super píseň

[perpetual61]

Long before I became a Fan of yngwie's. A friend played this Beautiful Song and from the moment I heard it, I got shivers down my spine. I asked my friend " Who is that ? He answered Yngwie Malmsteen. From that moment I have Loved Yngwie like no other Guitarist. Thanks for making this Female happy.

[HBK1337]

4:02 one of the most beautiful things i have ever heard in my entire life. ive known the song for years and i still get shivers down my spine every time i hear it.

[TADGELL]

he needs to get rid of the leather pants. it's not 1985 anymore, and he's not 20 years old.

[TADGELL]

what? you have to admit that they look like shit.

[JERRYCHERRYBAND]

What brought me back to watching this video tonight was that I heard the original version as the Olympic ice dancing was happening. I believe it's Bach. I love Ingwie. Met him a few times. Nice guy.

[TADGELL]

i heard it too at the olympics and it also reminded me of malmsteen. the composer is Albinoni. the piece is called adagio in g minor.

[dnr0516]

yes stratotaster

[sniktawleahcim]

at like 7:04 i came buckets.

[smilingeuterpe]

Beautiful rendition of Giazotto's pearl (Albinoni didn't write the Adagio on G minor !).

[rr0222]

keep close your eyes , and let fly ~

[dylarith]

one of my music

[Grefintiuk]

a real musician

[SorrisosIronicos]

wow,just...wow!

[goldfings]

This guy,its not just about speed..but very beautiful melody..

[JSRX]

@goldfings he took this melody from albinoni's adagio in g minor, anyhow he plays it beautiful

[myrabbitrules]

@goldfings absolutely! if Yngwie composed this himself I adore him much more for his ingenious melodies and ideas than for his speed. however his speed suits some parts of this music great.

[hodg22]

Just Brilliant!

[Martinirush]

eventhough I'm eating chips right now,

still,

this music touches my soul .

[ssuuppeerraalleexx86]

Wow, I love the sound of that!
