Love all their stuff, but this is my go to song. I only have one cassette in my van, (yes still have a cassette player) and Queensryche is the tape. This song has the best harmonies, and lyrics, and axe work of them all!
@johnnie11364 We aren't getting old, just Klassic,....*giggling* I loved it when we couldn't wait to buy an entire album, not just a song here and there!
@rlalmuana14 Did they make a short movie based on Operation: Mindcrime or was it just a rumor? I agree with you, that's an awesome album even after 23 years.
@MizzChaa0307 I agree. Queensryche and similar bands are still going strong. Take Iron Maiden for example, they pretty much tour their asses off and have had most of their material in the top ten in the 30+ plus years they've been going at it yet you never see them on popular TV Music Channels save for a top 100 marathon on Kerrang or Scuzz.
@ladyraven31 There are so many awesome european bands that make great music like this. Edguy, Free Spirit, Pink Cream 69, Jorn (more like White Snake). Check out Frontiers Records line up. German and Finnish bands are soooo good.
@fortknoxguy I was merely sugguesting other bands that currently make great music, that happen to be European. I am a music monger and I know they're American! And the current American music scene sucks!!!
Always thankful for my uncle showing me this band at a young age. Im one of the only youngsters I know that knows who this is and they are one iof my favorites
The first time I saw this video I wrongly thought, "This is the future of rock". Little did I know Nirvana was lurking and guitar solos would take a hiatus...and that MTV would begin to suck profusely.
Geoff Tate is an Iconic voice that will never be over done by any singer in the sorry world of todays music......these guys are one of the best, flat out! Thanks for your music. It got me through a bunch of tough times.
Holy shit!!!!!Is this really emi records???What a joke if it is.Why not be a post by some regular person?Shit and i subscribed.I will look for another video of this posted by a human.DAMN+
I know the music industry has been scary lately, and even somtimes dark.... But don't you worry.... Geoff Tate SAID, just in this song, that he will leave the light on for you : )
Always loved Queensryche! Great songs, with good lyrical content, and strong musicianship! What the fuck happened to the music industry?!! It`s supposed to get better, not worse?!!
Totality there have always been shite bands but there was something edgy and more sincere with this music it feels raw and relevant. I could say that in another 20 yrs if i,m still here i,ll still listen to it as i did 20 yrs ago god that long lol
I don't see that happening, I'm afraid; the masses - the sheep - have no problem with the canned shit that the industry attempts to pass as music. There are pockets of folks like you and me, but I'm doubting that we're strong enough to effect a change.
@MizzChaa0307 Some do, but they are mostly in Europe...I really find myself enjoying Kamelot...songs like March of Mephisto, Ghost Opera, The Haunting. Definitely influenced by bands like Queensryche...
@liamsnorthstar ya know, I don't mind Kamelot, but I think that if someone were to make a band that played music like queensryche, I would listen to them day in day out. Kamelot screams too much in my opinion too....
@jamerock12 Really? I like Kamelot because I like that Roy Kahn actually sings as compared to a lot of newer metal/grindcore bands. But Geoff Tate has the god of all rock voices in my opinion...
@bagaauwk Seen Iron Maiden about half a dozen of times live and old Brucie surely is amazing on any album but on stage he can't hold a tune anymore after the second song.
@MizzChaa0307 Its not totally the Music Industries fault...Theres alot of people out there who let the terrible bands make it as far as they do by buying their crap music...there are some good bands out there but they are few and far between.
My mum said that I would grow out of this phase.....she is still waiting!
