[LordOfRats]

I SAIL, over the sea, without BEEER!

[Thesunbursticeman]

1 person isnt a viking

[nE1canC1]

pity his guitaring doesn't sound as clean as this anymore.

[eiserbud]

When I saw Yngwie with Ripper Owens a few years back, he was a fucking giant. A true Viking.

[TheDragon201]

@eiserbud fucking owen sucks with malmsteen !!! my opinion...

[elgrande1987]

one of my RISING FORCE ALL TIME FAVORITE

[TMUSICIAN]

amazingly clean solo. dot.

[Kuuboman]

Yngwie is playing a beautiful intro, I wonder whats it called?

[Kuuboman]

@Kuuboman is it Adiago?

[cjdabes]

@Kuuboman

Acutally, it is :D But the arrangement comes from his song "Icarus' Dream" from the Rising Force album. Yngwie transposed it to Bb minor from G minor. The song is originally accredited to Tomaso Albinoni, but was composed by a biographer of Albinoni named Remo Giazotto. The piece originates to the 18th century. By the way, you will notice him play this alongside another classical piece by Niccolo Paganini called Concerto No. 4, which he also transposed from D minor to Eb Minor

[mriver72]

Zakk Wylde is also a Viking !!!

[jellydrummer123]

1985 Rising Force did it's First Official Concert in Japan. The Members were :

Yngwie Malmsteen - Guitar

Jeff Scott Soto - Lead Singer

Jens Johansson - Keyboards

Marcel Jacob - Bass

Anders Johansson - Drums

[Christer51Olausson]

Agree on the lineup comment. The Johansson brothers and Marcel Jacobs (RIP) behind Yngwie and Jeff. Great...

[TheWarlordAres]

What an awesome peformance.

[jpunch]

Thats you diggidy

[road2ruins]

Fucking amazing playing!

[guitarzero]

Jeff Scott Soto is such an awesome singer. This was so epic to me when it came out. I think I was around 15 or so.

[400SA]

I AM A VIKING

[mindzombi3]

Wow, this song is 50x more epic than I thought it would be...well, it's Yngwie. What should I expect?

[partyongarth420]

his sweeps are clean as hell.. i think thats one of a few reasons he is my favorite. i listened to the singer jeff scott soto ..and i didnt really like it at all but.. i do like his quality in this song.

[strangercool73]

[Jeahbuddy]

I want to have sex to it seriously

[rockabilly64]

[Thethundergods]

[omgpara]

[Lachdenan]

How does he pwn so insanely hard? I want to have his child. Maybe if I finish my rendition of Bach's Invention and Fugue #2 he will love it like a father.

[jellydrummer123]

this song is awesom, itsso insanely epic in every way possible

[CobHatecrewNor]

whats the intro called, i KNOW its not part of I Am a Viking, and its no extended version,

its a classical song he has been playing many places,, just dont remember the name

[vinlandisk]

Tt's Icarus' Dream Suite Op. 4 on "Rising Force" album.

[diabolousx]

that song is called lacrimosa made by mozart from the album requiem

[PijnigeR]

Just the intro dude. The rest of the song is obviously not made by Mozart:)

[rockabilly64]

Tomaso Albinoni's Adagio in G Minor, Yngwie thou on this piece plays it in E minor.

[Freyja1133]

why is the audience stil applauding?

I want to lisen to Jens Johansson play the intro to  I am A Viking

[aly458]

i love yngwie i love playing his songs cant do them half as fast as he can but i idolize teh guy saw him 1989 in atlanta ga was incredibly awesome. true yngwie fans already know this but to all you guitarists just finding out about him he scallops his frets pause this vid at 5:00

[scorpionsphynx]

I love this riff. This song is bad ass

[gerpir]

There are many great guitarists out there, but only few true innovators...

For me thats Dime, Eddie, Yngwie.

Great!

[Freyja1133]

ger : I agree

[santacruezz]

Why is Dime an innovator for you? I dont want to offend you, I am just curious.

[JamesMoi1981]

Arguably Yngwie's greatest lineup ever for Rising Force. Phenomenal video and great sound. Just tremendous. Thanks for posting.

[DrisseeBenson]

Beautiful !!!

[RHCPfan]

awesome extended verison!

[Armagedom1967]

excelente magistral....! saludos también a los viejos rockeros
