The glorious............. part sounds like a part from DragonForce's song Heroes Of Our Time, maybe DF got inspired by this or maybe Freedom Call and DragonForce both are influenced by one band that has such an cool part with lines ending with -us
I love the fact Dragonforce and Power quest get mentioned, cos along with Freedom Call and a 4th power metal band, theyre easily my fav bands...strange that Luca Turilli got mentioned too, hes another one of my favs :D
This is one of my favs by Freedom Call though, along with Warriors of Light and Far Away...Awesome songs!
Why is it always DragonForce that has explaining to do? Beyond the Stars by Power Quest sounds a lot like that part, so why don't THEY have any explaining to do?
Nah, it's close. Probably the same key. But really, all power metal is the very similar. Both bands rock, I think it's just coincidence. And even if Dragonforce did get their riff from Freedom Call, FC should be honored. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
Thank you very much KPlee! That's what I've been thinking on all of these anti-DragonForce forums. Why can't people just realize that doing something like someone else is a compliment?
Guys... seriously. Who cares? People take inspiration from other bands all the time, they may even do a part int he style of another band. Yes, the pre-chorus of the first verse of Heroes of Our Time is a lot like that part, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they heard this song and said, "let's see... if we take this part, up the octave, change the instruments, change a few of the lyrics, that would sound cool." NO! They just did that part in the style of Tears Falling. That's all.
Um, Freedom Call was chosen as DragonForce's special guest for some dates in Germany awhile back, around the time Heroes of Our Time was released as a single. I'm pretty sure DF has been influenced by FC, and as far as I can tell that's a good thing.
The story is strange and long, but there is a people who lost they own land and escape to another world... in this song they cry for their lost land....
mmm...... Ambidextrous drumming.....

Freedom Call is amazing, plain and simple. Freedom Call, Stratovarius, Hammerfall, and Gamma Ray are some of my favorites.

Gee, I'm sure glad we all enjoy the music, instead of getting hung up on who's who.
At least, I enjoy the music.

I agree with you, the riff is the same as is the style of singing, also the lyrics are pretty much the same too.
You're right, dragonforce DOES have explaining to do.

Did you notice, nobody from DragonForce was influenced by Freedom Call. NOBODY. They don't listen to Freedom Call.

They started the same year and have 2 different styles, so i agree to that jamesivan24.
Freedom Call is one of my fav bands, among with Sabaton, DragonForce, Hammerfall and Blidn Guardian.
