@protossevolution3361 Yeah.. I'd have to agree with you there. Apollo was fucking AWESOME! I still miss him to this day, and wish he was back in the band, but I'm glad he's doing other things now, musically.
Chitty Sompala voice perfectly suit Firewind.. such grace & beautiful power metal voices you could ever hear.. so dissapointed when he finally left the band....
Chity voice kinda reminded me of Ronnie James Dio... such a great voice Chity has... hope he does return to Firewind one day.. it'll be truly great....
Firewind - «Forged By Fire» (2005, CD) 🇬🇷 24 января 2005 года на лейбле Century Media выпущен третий студийный альбом греческой хэви- метал группы Firewind - «Forged By Fire». Line Up: Chitral "Chity" Somapala - vocals, backing vocals Gus G. - guitars, producing, engineering Bob Katsionis - keyboards Petros Christo - bass guitar Stian L. Kristoffersen - drums
@previous comments, they do still play the song live (at least the last two times I saw them) and Apollo does quit a good version, I could advise you all to go see them someday ;)
@RetroiconTV in my personal opinion Alleigance was their best album and till the end of time was my personal favorite song, along with Apollo being my favorite singer, i didnt really care for the singer they had during this album but he's still a good singer :)
Forged by fire is the best album by firewind along with allegiance, chity is a great vocalist and a great musician, apollo who replaced chity was also a great vocalist, i was lucky to see firewind live with apollo in 2008, none of them is in the band anymore, such a shame, anyway, the band is still a great band, the new vocalist who sang in the 2020 album is also very good.
FIRST OF ALL, EVERY ONE HAS THEIR OWN OPINIONS ON THINGS, AND I RESPECT THAT. PERSONALLY, I LOVE THE SONG. CHITTY IS OK AS FAR AS IT GOES, BUT I'M EXTREMELY PARTIAL TO APOLLO. I THINK HE IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST LEAD VOCALS THAT FIREWIND HAS EVER HAD. HE WILL DEFINITELY BE MISSED. OTHER HAND, GUS, BOB, AND PETROS HAVE COME A VERY LONG WAY. THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOTALLY AWESOME TO ME. AND THEY DID, IN FACT, KICK BEIBER'S ASS TO THE MOON AND BACK. ANYWAY, GREAT JOB!. MUCH LOVE, RESPECT AND HUGS FROM ALL YOUR FANS IN SOUTH CAROLINA, USA. STAY METAL.
@chrls7Cantona Listen up buddy, Chity joined Power Quest and as a fellow Firewind fan I feel obliged to say how the new PQ album "Blood Alliance" will blow you away, just buy it when it comes out and enjoy it! Your day has been made ;D
i had a funny time with the word "tyranny". we were talking about Germany in world war II, and i asked my teacher "how long was germany in a state of tyranny?" and he says "suprising you know that word- where did you learn it" i says "Tyranny- firewind :)" and then he answers lolz
My God...Even Chity Somapala was great! I'd prefer Fredricks, but ANYONE over Apollo! "Allegiance" was the biggest dissapointment in this decade.. I LOVE the first three albums!
Chity somapala is a great singer,make a search for him at wikipedia. I also like apollo but if you will hear this song from both of them,chity is class better
@DeathMetalforever no way dude, this band is great and judging by ur name u like death metal which i also do but no disrespect please, if u dnt like than dont comment you'll save everyone a lot of trouble
FUN FACT: Gus G is not the guitarist's real name. His real name is Kostas Karamitroudis. How did he get the nickname? Gus is the English translation of Kostas. When he came to America, one of his friends called him G, which any american understands Put those two together and you have the most badass name in the world
This was Firewind's best singer, hands down.
Yeah chity was great but I have to disagree with you... Stephen Fredrick (first singer) was their best
@@davidgradinaru7313 For me, is Apollo, but I like all of them a lot!
@protossevolution3361 Yeah.. I'd have to agree with you there. Apollo was fucking AWESOME! I still miss him to this day, and wish he was back in the band, but I'm glad he's doing other things now, musically.
Is he Henning Basse, or someone else?
Chity's hands look like the claws of Golem. They're massive!
2:47 is where i get the good chills , good pitch out there awesome band💪
Great song
Good vocal
I like
Big Firewind
Chitty Sompala voice perfectly suit Firewind..
such grace & beautiful power metal voices you could ever hear..
so dissapointed when he finally left the band....
Chitty was amazing with Civilization One as well .. And Power Quest
This guy is gonna be my vocal coach in about 2-3 weeks :D

Chity voice kinda reminded me of Ronnie James Dio...
such a great voice Chity has...
hope he does return to Firewind one day..

Chithral Somapala is the best...

@@saynotoerrors4355 both fredrick and chity were on the same level, I liked both, 2 different styles. Apollo is last.....

@wazup972 that will be apollo, its the latest singer, chity left in 05 and stephen fredrick left in...04 i think lol.
It's such a simple guitar note but the best
@previous comments, they do still play the song live (at least the last two times I saw them) and Apollo does quit a good version, I could advise you all to go see them someday ;)
@RetroiconTV in my personal opinion Alleigance was their best album and till the end of time was my personal favorite song, along with Apollo being my favorite singer, i didnt really care for the singer they had during this album but he's still a good singer :)
this is my only song i like because chity is in it. WOW what a great singer!
chity is awesom
SAVAGE HUSKIES!
you make us (greeks) proud!
continue like this,
stay metal
the introduction reminds me that one of "Helloween-I want out"
Forged by fire is the best album by firewind along with allegiance, chity is a great vocalist and a great musician, apollo who replaced chity was also a great vocalist, i was lucky to see firewind live with apollo in 2008, none of them is in the band anymore, such a shame, anyway, the band is still a great band, the new vocalist who sang in the 2020 album is also very good.
Luiz Caldas vocals e Pepeu Gomes na batera
😂😂😂 podes crer!!
@wazup972 Apollo Papathanasio has been with them for 3 albums now. i don't see him leaving anytime soon because he is just epic with Firewind
chity is now in a band called civilization one and they rock,you can also check out a band called red circuit did i mention this is fkn great
die sind hammer und ...sehen toll aus!!!

+Stephanie Guzman the best firewind songs were not with Apollo.
+Stephanie Guzman SHITTY CHITTY!
+Tony Powell : WHAT EVER. LIKE I SAID, EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN OPINIONS.
Woooow awesome
Their singer Apollo left. Gus G is to firewind as Dave Mustaine is to Megadeth.
And as Mikael Akerfeldt is to Opeth
@chrls7Cantona Listen up buddy, Chity joined Power Quest and as a fellow Firewind fan I feel obliged to say how the new PQ album "Blood Alliance" will blow you away, just buy it when it comes out and enjoy it!
Your day has been made ;D
Great!
kickass!!! all i need to say.
detroit rock city?? rsrsrs
i had a funny time with the word "tyranny". we were talking about Germany in world war II, and i asked my teacher "how long was germany in a state of tyranny?" and he says "suprising you know that word- where did you learn it" i says "Tyranny- firewind :)" and then he answers lolz
@ghostpw93 haha nice one..do you know the other with totos???
i saw these guys last wednsday, honestly thats the first time someone straight up headbutt me on purpose in a mosh pit...
fucking love Gus G.. this part on the @2:10 sounds familiar tho maybe similar to a couple of my favorite japanese bands Galneryus and Tayahoshi Ohmura
GAMISEEE!!!!!!!
EPIC EPOS!
@w0t3rdog Wow! Cool, bro!
kinda has a little bit of Ronnie James Dio, like he is still alive!
I wanna see these guys playing live in North Korea. I'd go there to see it.
Underrated comment!
awesome song but lol the air guitar is priceless XD
Therapy? - 'Nowhere' much at the beginning?!
i love this song and video is alright
ITS OVER 9000
My God...Even Chity Somapala was great! I'd prefer Fredricks, but ANYONE over Apollo! "Allegiance" was the biggest dissapointment in this decade.. I LOVE the first three albums!
somapala TIENE UNAS MANOS GIGANTES!!! me recuerda a freddie Crueger
Chity somapala is a great singer,make a search for him at wikipedia.
I also like apollo but if you will hear this song from both of them,chity is class better
@ThePiperia rather, drop a 40" bass-speaker upon of them in their sleep. THAT is metal. nuf' said!
It's Firewind, guy.
is it just me.. but doesnt the main riff sound very similar to a Therapy? song?
@SuperZar77 yep awsome.
Años pasan y esta canción me sigue levantando el animo
Omfg I was founding dis songs for yeyd
たかあき、君、ありがとうございます、素晴らしい、
Chitral Somapala
Greek
Does his guitar need electricity?
answer=no, he makes it himself
@DeathMetalforever no way dude, this band is great and judging by ur name u like death metal which i also do but no disrespect please, if u dnt like than dont comment you'll save everyone a lot of trouble
FUN FACT: Gus G is not the guitarist's real name. His real name is Kostas Karamitroudis.
How did he get the nickname? Gus is the English translation of Kostas. When he came to America, one of his friends called him G, which any american understands
Put those two together and you have the most badass name in the world
this will be a good theme song for turkish spring #occupyturkey #direngeziparki #stepdowndictatorerdogan
Chity is the best!
chitty ftw!!!!!!
@MetalManJads99
you stand next to Gus G and try not to air guitar
i dont see Gus' tattoos, are they after forged by fire, and before allegiance, or what?
what is the name of this band??? Firewind or Tyranny???
If this video cost more than $5 to make, I'd eat my hat.
Not that I care.
This guy is alot better then their new singer.
me gustaba mas la voz de este cantante que el que esta ahora
I just had a wild thought.
Am I listening to Detroit Rock City?
wasnt there a differnt singer
i actually prefer hearing this vocalist rather than their current one but don't get me wrong..their both great, i just like this one a bit more!
good
Why is the singer air guitaring?
Look at Gus G and Petros in this video, and then in World on Fire. They have come a long way, but are still sexy xD
haha I just fucking found out that chitral was in firewind. Fukin amazing. oo bad I'm in UK now.
@sixxdog lol! I personally thought Allegiance was their best work
Great speed metal song. The singer looks spooky. The drummer eats too many Big Macs. Love the rest of you. Yassou from Philadelphia.
I know it's "Eden" but...
LET US WALK THROUGH OUR LAND OF FREEDOM!! :D
0:16 - 0:20 Epic air guitar
i hate them for not playing this song live -.-"
who is the singer?
