  • These guys rock just as good or better than the best of them!!! Thank god for Stryper!!!

  • Free to listen to Heavy Metal Loud !

  • Salvation Through Redemption, Yielding Peace, Encouragement and Righteousness

  • God gave us our FREE WILL to choose, BUT one should seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near (Isaiah 55:6)! Jesus is the only truth, the way, and the life!

  • The Drummer is Freaking SICK!!!

  • to all stryper fans come to regina saskatchewan canada and see me and my band headbangersball we stryper do prouder than hell

  • I just want to say, as an agnostic and huge lifelong metalhead, this song is the single radest thing I have ever heard. It gets stuck in my head ALL day, everyday lately, the ending guitar riff is amazing. I wish more secular metalheads would give Christian metal a chance as I think a lot of it like this is bad ass whether you believe the message or not. I listen to a lot of "satanic" metal as well and I certainly don't worship Satan. As the lyrics say you're free to do what you want to.

  • @JayFreeMusic Right on dude! I'll pray for you :)

  • @JayFreeMusic well said!

  • Stryper was my first live show when I was 13...I forgot how hard they rock +

  • RAWK!

  • このバンドは3枚目以降素晴らしい音を残してくれた!

    

  • I'm still listening it 2011 !!

    Melodious and cool!

    

  • Christian version of Kiss.

  • I usualy dont ever listen to Christian rock but this band is Bad fucking ass!!

  • Easyhec Ditto!!

  • This reminds me of the band called "I Am Empire"

  • I remember coming home from school in the late 80s and turning on Mtv's top 10 with Martha Quinn. This song was #1 for like two weeks and stayed in the top 10 for months. It ran along with Madonna, Michael Jackson, Duran Duran, Paul Simon, and the like. The riff is engaging, yet mellows, as it warbles at the end. The guitar solo's robust layers. The medium tempo and singers' harmony reminds me of Queen's style. you know what I mean?

  • Looks more like a Jackson Kelly.

  • good song and good band

  • We're FREE to do what we want to! and choose our own Destiny ! I just choose Jesus as my Lord and Savior :)

  • you just can't take anyone seriously with hair like that. Oh well the song is still awesome.

  • WTH is W.A.S.P. doin here?

  • go ahead rape the relay button

  • I worked with these guys on an album in Middleton Mass they were the nicest guys and damn can this guy sing!!

  • right at the end was the beginning of crue's live wire I believe...didn't stryper abandon their christian theme later on ?

  • @meritmthl no ..michael sweet is on christian tv even now

  • Lord Jesus thank you for everything in this life! Amen

  • yo sweet jackson kelly

  • All these years and I still feel the power of their message. You can tell the Lord is still in this music today, 25 years later. Funny thing, their still around reaching out to us all. God works in mysterious ways. I know I've walked away but He's always still there waiting for me to come back to his arms.

  • I Love Stryper so much!!!, they are part of the reason I became a Christian. We are a new Christian Rock Band, following in the footsteps of Stryper, please check us out....We are very special, not the usual Youtube dribble, i promise, quite the opposite actually, please click here....,.....

  • does anybody know what became of Matt Hurich, the bassist who briefly replaced Tim Gaines, only to relinquish the bass spot back to Tim when he was ready?

  • The song is called "Free" which also includes believing in whatever religion you want to. ANY religion. Oh, and for you people who think that the bible is the all to referal, here's a fun fact: The bible was created by the Illuminati to control the herd of sheep that most of you humans are. The Illuminati is the same group of people that warship Lucifer. Ironic isn't it? Just enjoy the muisic people; and enough with you obsessive bible humpers, No one wants to hear your garbage.

  • @dgk990 The Illuminati created the bible... but they worship Lucifer... who's in the bible...?

  • @Trev466

    The Illuminati created the bible? Prove it...go ahead...Im listening...

  • This song is so amazing it makes me want to cry... the lord is so good

  • what does FREE mean these days, we are controlled by the banks and oil companies.pryers can make us free.

  • God did not created people to go to hell. Sin has done that and the greatest sin is not accepting His gift of salvation. God gave an incredible gift to the world by sending His Son Jesus Christ to die for the sins of the world.  Even more than that Jesus rose from the dead. Those who go to hell have not accepted this gift and that is on them, not God. God has done all of the work and only asks us is to believe in His Son. I know that is a tough concept for those who do not believe.

  • freedom from sin. you dont have to sin. that is what freedom in CHRIST ia all about.

  • Stryper is my favorite song and favorite music group best of best.

    I want to up and about doing,and to listen a new album. I expect it.

    I'm english is poor. I'm sory. from Japan.

  • but dear folks,even stryper saw a different side at one time.Remember when the turn colors to black and silver,and they had an ad in hit parader in the late 80's about drug abuse!

  • I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS BAND

  • Man is not free to do ANYTHING what madness and arrogance it is to even sing a song that says we're FREE TO CHOOSE OUR OWN DESTINY!!

    Rom 9:22 What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,

    Rom 9:23 in order to make known the riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which he has prepared beforehand for glory--

  • @NB3K Wow. Way to completely miss the point of this song. You're a christian though, so I guess it figures that you're reading comprehension skills are pretty low.

  • @EusticeX I very much agree he missed the point. As for your bigoted jab, was it necessary? I actually find that atheists have the most trouble with metaphors and symbolism. I'm not about to bash all of them or say that you are among those who have trouble with it, though.

  • @PremiumBlank Of course it wasn't necessary. Neither was captain theology's attempt to pee in everyone's stryper soup. I don't treat all christians this way, just the ones that start beating people over the heads with their beliefs, like this guy. Even though you throw in the disclaimer that you wouldn't bash atheists or lump us all together, you still did the moment you said "I find that atheists...". Nice try though.

  • @PremiumBlank jeeze it took forever to get a return comment e-mail. When I say I find X its based off of my personal experiance with atheists I know. Since I do not know you, nore all atheists, I can't lump them together. Perhaps I should have been more clear. As I said, I do agree with you on him being wrong. I even believe he used the wrong passages of the Bible to make his failed point.

  • @PremiumBlank Cool. I remember when I was about 11 or so and LOVED this album. Then I heard some jackass making the same point as NB3K and basically saying that this was just as evil as all the secular music that I wasn't able to listen to. It was very confusing. I thought "Is satan really using Stryper to deceive me?" No matter how much a person tries to be a good christian, there is always some holier than thou christian waiting around the corner to tell them that they have it all wrong.

  • @EusticeX No the gist of their song is that we are free to chose either life or death viz. eternal life or eternal death. Stryper is holding to a long held heresy that man has within himself the capacity to chose eternal life. I am saying that Eternal life is freely given by God to whom God freely chooses to give it to. That would be a more proper way of describing what Free Grace is.

  • @NB3K  So god made people that he had no intention of giving the gift of eternal life to? So he basically made them simply to send them to hell? That doesn't sound like something a loving god would do.

  • @EusticeX God did not created people to go to hell. Sin has done that and the greatest sin is not accepting His gift of salvation. God gave an incredible gift to the world by sending His Son Jesus Christ to die for the sins of the world. Even more than that Jesus rose from the dead. Those who go to hell have not accepted this gift and that is on them, not God. God has done all of the work and only asks us is to believe in His Son.

  • @EusticeX no God gives the gift to everyone, but the Bible makes it very clear that a person can reject salvation so much that God will give up on giving them salvation

  • @NB3K You're missing the point - God did give us CHOICE to either believe or not. What do you do with John 3:16? (Whosoever believeth in him hath everlasting life) - if you don't believe, you've chosen Hell, although you may not know it - YET).

  • @coupongirl65 I am not missing the point! You are missing the point. If man had a choice to either choose life or choose death then how come Jesus tells the Jews that the reason they do not believe is because they are not of His flock!

    Joh 10:26 but you do not believe because you are not part of my flock.

  • Say what you will about Stryper. Those guitars sound fucking huge!

  • love it!

  • They might be christian but they rock anyway.Each to their own,peace.

  • top 2 of my 80's fav bands! 

  • Wow! They sound really good! I'm surprised you don't hear much about them in the media. 

  • I love Stryper, been listening to them for over 25 years =)

  • michael sweet = casi dios nunca mejor dicho jejeje IN GOD WE TRUST

  • I am a bit conflicted....does Satan enjoy a filthy guitar solo if it is played by Stryper???

  • @SuperstarDundee I think conflict comes when a particular style is demonized. This is a great performer and a gifted guitar player: If you set yourself free of prejudices you'll really appreciate their playing and listen to their message as well :-)

  • @SuperstarDundee what makes it filthy?

  • I believe this also kick's Satan's ass...

  • Don't care for Gospel music really. But hell if Oz Fox isn't one nasty guitarist!

  • @Carrjam94 DEFINITELY one of the best vocalists, along with Michael Kiske from Helloween. My two favorites of all time.

  • When I listen to Stryper and then listen to today's christian music...I wonder what went wrong...

  • Best guitar solo ever. 

  • God's beautiful still small voice.Can you hear it speaking to you?

    1 Kings 19

    11And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:

    12And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

  • My favorite band ...I luv them!!

  • Stryper was the first good christian rock band, and is still up there with the best.

  • FUCK YEAH Stryper KICKASS

  • Read the verse ISAIAH 53:5 from the bible to understand why the use those colors.

  • @35jmunoz most people don't know what the colors stand for, but, true Christians do.

  • @ScottMcC38 I looked at ISAIAH 53:5, and understand the stripes, but there's no mention of the colors. Help in eliminating my ignorance would be greatly appreciated brother.

  • @mizzlec1 ...I thought they said the black represented Hell and the Gold Heaven?

  • no one preached to head bangers and metal heads better than stryper, truely one of my favs from the 80's, i mean at partys we would jam to priest, maiden, metallica and then in between throw in some stryper and no one ever questioned it, they just flowed with it

  • Let's build an 80's time machine and go to these times. Thumbs up, people!!

  • @StaceySplyce Hey Stacey, I didn,know you were into astryper.

  • @robshannon Hey Rob!! I consider myself a rock n' roll buff. I LOVE the hair metal era!! I love this song. There are endless ways to give God glory and I am so glad that Stryper has used this medium :) ttyl

  • @StaceySplyce I agree with you, Stryper is right up there with the best. If you want I'll help build the time machine.

  • @robshannon I would more than appreciate your help. ;)

  • they all look like bumble bees... lol its awesome tho :]

  • @jesusluvsme54321 Funny you should say that! Years ago, I read an interview on them in a metal magazine where Oz Fox had a stuffed bumble bee, and said he should make it the band's official mascot.

  • Comment removed

  • yes, a cool solo, they are pretty good in fact. like it! :D

  • cool guitar solo

  • They would be considered Christian hair (or glam) metal.

  • Love it!

  • one of my favourite Stryper songs especially the way it starts off...psyched up for many of a race with this one...

  • The term traditional heavy metal is more proper.
