AWESOME TUNE AND SHADDDOOOW ON THE SUUUUUN SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:)
@lemonboy53 what was more epic was having to go in and Fly your own Helicopters to destroy their AAA..., and the fact that some guys actually survived that Ranger mission
this song is reminds me of the crappy day i had and what i need to make this better so i can proser tnks man for the video i must redeem myself and get my love back somehow
this song is incredible, the voice wake up ur mind and the guitar are simply but strong really really nice song, Need more like that . From french guitarist.
I love this song. Immediately looked for it after hearing it on Collateral ^^ I think the guitar solo at 2:30 is slightly weird, but it reminds me of a connection breaking up, which I think fits well with war
Makes me think of the aftermath of that World In Conflict trailer with the chopper getting destroyed. My idea shows an officer aboard one of the other choppers that got hit landing, stumbling around for a second or two, then trying to rally his men into a valiant counter-assault, retaking the entire position at the cost of his life, and showing the men chanting "shadow on the sun!" as his body is borne away by his closest friends, his arms crossed on his rifle.
this song is in the game world in conflict were tons of American soldiers are dieing by anti air its suppose to add a dramatic feel and then upset the user
I know what you mean... I liked Audioslave's first album, but there's a pattern with their songs being 90% great, but an annoying 10% that doesn't fit at all with the rest of their song, just sorta thrown in there.
On this one you have that weird solo after 2:30, and then Cornell shouting "SUUUUUUN!" at the end of a generaly mild song. Same goes with the weird solo on Like a Stone around 3:15.
I actually like the quirky unexpected bits that don't seem to belong the most. Gives it a feeling that it isn't so formulaic and that you don't know what's coming. I'm tired of standard predictable verese/chorus/verse stuff. I like the left-field things in a lot of Audioslave's songs. It's what sets them apart.
actually they're all kinda like verse chourus verse chorus solo bridge chorus. Thats real common. They are still all great songs though. I love this band.
LOL yeah! I was watching it yesterday for the second time since I got it, and loved this song (again). So I had to go onto WIki and find the song list for the film and do some trial and error till I found it. I'm a fan of RATM too :D
It really is just a beautiful song, from the sound itself to how the lyrics were written. Hell, even his final screaming solo, while unexpected, manages to grow on you. One of their best works.
autioslave is the only band ever in my time that can rock out and be really good at the same time! They are the reasons why I listen to rock!!! if it wasn't 4 them I would think that music really sucks!
This is one of my fav audioslave solo along with i am the highway. I have the uppermost respect for tom. I loved audioslave and love rage as well. Great group of musicians ^^ awesome song <3
I think the song is pretty much perfect up 'till the end...where he continues shouting with his voice cracking over and over....Still I think this deserves a 4/5...
Wow, this song is so ponderously melodramatic and bad that it's almost good. Perfect pseudo-meaningful lyrics! You couldn't get a super-computer to generate better schlock!
And sung with such hilarious conviction, not to mention a serious head cold!
Hats off to Audioslave, they've made a lot of video game-playing 10 year-olds happy.
Well, at the last party I attended there wasn't much Audislave. There was a hell of a lot of Tool and Rage. These lyrics needed an editor though that's for sure but hell rock has been ponderous and loaded with cliches since Simon and Garfunkel.
good. It's an emotional song. (: I generally dislike screening, but at least it's Cornell and not another singer that may sound like a ... you know... little girly girl emo-screamo fruitpie.
Well I'm alright with emotion in music, it's what music's about. Passion, emotion, and the all around sound of the stuff, but I guess I just don't like the sound of a lot of the emo bands.
i have to agree the screaming at then does kind of kill it.. not saying i dont like screamin seeing as my favorite bands include machine head and divine heresy. but its out of place with this song. other wise i love this song. this whole album is fkn awesome.. deep and soulfull
@TheDorianTormak yep... thats part of the song
