This song is so perfect... A haunting tune. Beautiful lyrics. The perfect mixture of loud and soft, fast and slow. And brilliant guitar solos. Wow. I really didn't think I'd find a song this good for a long time.
@cas66ragtop Number 1. It was a joke. Number 2, i do not hate creed, nor hate Scott Stapp. Creed music is incredibly different compared to Alter Bridge, the only difference is Scott. Hence why i used him for my "joke".I do prefer AB over creed, but that's just me. To me, the members have gotten more technical with instruments for AB, giving it such a unique sound. Creeds unique sound comes from Scott. And yeah your right, it if wasnt for Scott, there would be no AB. Both bands kick ass.
Alter Bridge is one of todays best bands..The band made the best choice..Replacing Scott Stapp with Miles Kennedy..Thus forming Alter Bridge!..What a fantastic choice!
This song is healing for me.My sister passed away from lupus in 2002 and I also have lupus(SLE) and it is progressing and atacking my major organs now.
@RsPker141 Thank you so much!! That means alot to me.The lupus has now progressed and I am loosing all my hair and using a walker now.I have you in my prayers to.Take care and God bless.
Despite what people have said in a recent poll, not the best solo ever (that's where Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd comes in), but still one hell of a solo.
so... paul mccartney already wrote a song like this, right? Are AB doing a cover that is very different or an original that is very similar? I mean, couldn't myles have at least changed it to "bluebird" or something? That's my one gripe with this band, as much as I really like them. The lyrics are too generic and unoriginal.
This song alone moved me so much to have their album art tattooed on my shoulder...AB for life..literally. I miss you grams, i dedicate this song to you.
omfg, wow, holy shit, these guys go off!!!!!! i hope these never find the radio to preserve the greatness of this sound, please, pleaese, dont let radio kill this brilliance!!!
One of the best bands around and one of the best voices, especially on this song. Check it out - from 6:29 to 7:00, Miles sings this in one breath - incredible! I'm a female, almost 50 years old, and can't get enough of this music.
i hate to pop your bubble but im almost positive there was some studio magic that gave you the illusion of all that being one breath..ive worked in recording studios and its easy to do that with editing software and a couple of vocal tracks
I'm a huge classical geek and my boyfriend introduced me to Alter Bridge and I love them now! It's funny - if you go to my page and look at my fav vidoes, you will see Alter Bridge mixed in with a bunch of classical stuff..lol. Actually though, you'd be surprised how much classical music influences bands like this. This is a wonderful song and I love it. I already started figuring it out for piano..lol.
