Deep Purple - Haunted

[thespotlightkid]

The guitar solo is just...wow...Steve...

[bolanbabe]

awesome!!!!

[moreblack]

Great tune, one of my favorites of theirs.

It's kind of ironic, that the female voice almost sounds like Candice Night. There is no way in 100 years that it could possibly be her, but it sounds pretty close.

[Urrayy]

@moreblack The female backup singer is Beth Hart, one of the most amasing voices ive ever heard.

[moreblack]

@Urrayy Beth Hart?!? really?

Mother Maria/Sister Heroin Beth Hart? That's awesome, I got into her music early last year and never knew this was her.

[moreblack]

@Urrayy Awesome, thanks for the info.

[Urrayy]

@moreblack if u like her see the vid "Am i the one", live in Amsterdam, its freakin awesome!

[thespotlightkid]

Steve's solo is beyond magical.

[jeffreygaudreault]

@dieneshugi That's correct, sir! Ian Gillan is the best singer in the universe!

[metalwarrior250]

what a beautiful song

too bad they aint making music like this anymore

[colestinable]

one of my eternal favorite from DP:)))This is what music is indeed!

[Camaxtli1000]

Long live the real music!!!

F*ck the nonvalues!!!

If you guys would live in Romania you would go crazzy hearing the crappy music most of Romanians listen to !!

[renues]

BAD Album Cover.

[Motoroilspill]

Awesome song.

[thespotlightkid]

The solo is in my Steve Morse top 5.

[hermit743]

Empty rooms and picture frames... Awesome!!! DP rulez on this planet.

[zataxas]

I really like this song, the voice of Ian Gillan is powerfull

[judithps1]

I Love this brilliant song !!!!

[ipkeez]

Truly Awesome song!!!

[61scd]

***** I hear your footsteps on the ground Tempting me to turn around It's just the echo Of a disenchanted lover Shuffling aimlessly Homeward bound To empty rooms And picture frames And Friends Who can't recall our names

[mrstanli]

I love that song.

[liquidemetalforfaan]

Yeah..Gilian really nails that one good. Rips my heart out!

I agree "Theanipoof". This stuff ain't made any moore..the shit-to-gold ratio is totally worth it!

[BigMattCRF]

remember me "all my love" from Led Zeppelin

[TheDeepPurpleROCKS]

way better than bieber down with bieber up with rock

[MiChAeL111JaCkSoN]

i love this song, but it had been much better if Ritchie Blackmore had played

[SuperVelez09]

AGUANTE DEEP PURPLE

[gillan64]

One of my life wishes is that Ian NEVER dies!

[takoGillan94]

@gillan64

My dream :((((

[2793marco]

Fly everything

[ohmmeters]

crappy sound as so often on youtube

[liquidemetalforfaan]

I found my self stuck in a pathetic situation last night. (oh yeah, there's a girl), and then I stumbeled upon this song. After getting pissed-drunk, I made the intelligent decision to send her the link to "Haunted". It went really well actually. Not! :o))

[SuperEasyliving]

This man Steve Morse can play his legatos or what......Great song.....Have been listening to DP since 1973, they never seem to disappoint..

[celer1ty2]

I have mixed feelings for this song, it's nice, but it's not a Purple song!

[stoni444]

@celer1ty2

You´re sooo right in that point of view. Its nearly the best song since the D.P. - reunion in1984, but the real old days will never come back.

But nevertheless, one of the most beautiful rock-songs I know ....(a little more than just nice ;).....)

[evelskunny]

does anyone know that gillian was the lead in jesus christ superstar b4 ted kneely was!

[sadeceemre]

Is that what you wanted?

[streetsnake96]

Gillan have almost same awesome voice now and for like 40 years ago :)

[MAPPAZ]

Gillan's voice here is incredible!!

[mrkvavelika]

Morse has so much feeling in his playing!

[IanGillanGurl]

That is it, Mr Gillan!!!!! :)))))

[capsaisina]

Estas canciones son como para oirlas

a todo volumen

para apreciar los sentimientos

[kjrossblackmore]

AkeksandrScheffler is a nugget. he says if he was given the opportunity to write with Blackmore he would say 'no' because of his drama. FOOL. Blackmore is the man

[AleksandrScheffler]

oh really, apparently you don't know anything about me nor my personality. I stick by what I say, I respect Blackmore greatly as one of the greatest if not the best guitarist to ever exist, but every Deep Purple must also radically accept that Blackmore is one of the biggest assholes in rock history, and that is why I would never write music with him, it does not lead to productive material in my honest opinion

[vectragt2310]

@AleksandrScheffler

I think you´ll never get the chance to write with him! :D

...not lead to productive material... puh....

[fezzappa]

blackmore is a great guitar player,but what has he done since leaving rainbow?...he is playing crap music and is in obscurity....

[vectragt2310]

@fezzappa such a bullshit!!

[fezzappa]

@vectragt2310 ..ok-what is bullshit? tell me what has blackmore done,since rainbow?

[jasminrory]

@fezzappa lol he has been dressed up like a gnome plaing that baroque shit. I don't like that Ritchie, but he has always been wierdo, obssessed with castles and middle ages..

[MrLukeypea]

Awesome chillin' song! B-)

[lolomokohej]

Omg.. He is a terrible singer these days. He was the best, but now he is just a sad story after his throat operation. They would take back Blackmore and Turner, and it would be an awesome band, They already has the name so why not. Turner is the best singer now days, in the world :) Plus that he is a wonderful person. Met him several times and always wonderful. Love Joe Lynn Turner

[AliBabazzi]

want to see you at gillan's age!

exuse me for my bad english

[AleksandrScheffler]

Ritchie was Purple's best guitar player, but overalll Morse is much better because he is down to earth, and more straightforward rocker and writes brilliant music and does brilliant versions of Blackmore era tunes. Deep Purple with Morse is not drama filled like when Blackmore was in the band, I love Blackmore as a musician, but if I was ever given the chance to write music with him I would say no because of his drama.

[mixalis6890]

you are right my friend. these are the most right words I have ever read about the comparison between Morse and Blackmore..

[danielr322]

awesome!!

beatiful song..remember me good times

[MrTwisterband]

awesome-NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE AND I HAVE BEEN AROUND A LONG TIME:

[Dust2Gta]

Right There, One of the best Ballad song ever made! Deep Purple, best band in the earth.

[billy67868]

The first time I heard Ian Gillam sing was on the first post Ozzy Sabbath album (I think) "Born Again" and I thought him incredible and proceeded to buy every Deep Purple album. Bruce Dickinson said he was a major inspiration.

[Jingero6]

Born Again was the third post Ozzy-album by Sabbath. After Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules, both with Ronnie Dio on vocals.

[8SteveGerrard8]

classic

[arhivariusRU]

masterpiece !!!!

[darkmere365]

Bananas, not the best title for a Deep Purple Album, but "Haunted" is the best track on there.

[longtalker]

"I hear the beating of your wings / As if you're playing on my strings"

The most beautiful song opening that I can think of.

[blackster]

Yeah, but notice how the intro actually sounds like the intro to the TV program M.A.S.H. lol!

[dieneshugi]

love this song...

[Affstp]

Damn... till this day Eric Adams was my favorite frontman, but Gillan owns them all !!

[fankha]

Especially the beginning is incomparable, just great!

[purpledude603]

The only band I've Faithfully loved basically my whole life. I love Ritchie, but I'm thankful for Steve Morse,without him DP would have not survived. They always put out quality music. Cheers!!!

[1lhotstuff]

i'm still HAUNTED1 but i'm a fan! always will be a fan!! til the day that i die! i love DEEP PURPLE! my band!

[donata73]

steve's best solo!!! beautyful song!

[jlocorriere05]

Beautiful, absolutely brilliant track and vocals are outstanding!

[flamingjon88]

wow. what a song. randomly searched for bananas to see what recent Deep Purple stuff is actually like and this is sublime. excellent

[dieneshugi]

One of my favorite song from Ian Gillan the best singer in the whole universe.......Peace and unconditional love...

[Wrathdemon]

True

[lolodrums]

man i started at 16 ..now i'm 52 never stopped to hear them.........heroes for my whole life

[lolodrums]

what's wrong with you ?

[empirecircle]

It seems that he has some anger issues:P

[poopie1e]

ja,ian gillan is de beste zanger die dp gehad heeft...

[GillanManiac]

Yeah totally agree with you =)

[Theantipoof]

A beautiful song from real musicians. It seems that these days you have to dig through a lot of shit to find a little gold.

If you happen upon a rich vein like Deep Purple, then the shit-to-gold ratio becomes much more favourable.

Follow that vein, my friends.

[longtalker]

Shit-to-gold ratio.. haha I couldn't have put it better myself! The "SGR" is also oustanding for most British bands of the same age, in my opinion. One of the reasons I admire the people of that tiny island so much, they are so good at good music!

[Fedcom]

Nothing about Deep Purple is bad. They have released like 18 albums and every single one of them is AWESOME. 'cept for the one with Joe Lynn Turner...lol

[kingoftheswing000]

lol; so true

[nano2112]

great song

[dieneshugi]

Happy holidays to everybody,especially to Ian Gillan the best singer in the whole universe..

[GillanManiac]

Yeah!! Gillan is THE BEST!!!

[Wrathdemon]

This song really shows how awesome Ian Gillan is.

[dieneshugi]

Beautiful lyrics and song by Ian Gillan the POET.

[Azzern]

Love it

[75PIISPA]

-Best song of the Morse era...

[CanadianOCrusher]

man Gillan still has something special after all!!

[Deeperpurple1952]

Hmm, I've been listening to the re-mastered In Rock album in my car recently..and the difference between Purple of then and now is astounding...however I do like this song..I've only heard this and House of Pain from Bananas..might give it a listen.

[marcolame]

è la mia preferita di bananas!!!

[ivanovjd]

Abit cheesy, but, overall, one of the better songs from Bananas...i know it is an instrumental, but Contact Lost blows my mind every time I hear it, especially considering why they wrote it...Morse is a genius...

[HulyekVagytokEmosok]

Deep Purple is skilled awesome music!!!

[ramontma]

muito bommmmmmm

[ValyPurple]

fucking best song

[dertyou117]
