I have been listening to Survivor since early 80s and didn't know the difference because Jimmy was a great match and all respect for both but yeah I am a vocalist and I can sing all of these tubes but Dave is amazing I would almost kill to here him now I bet he can still do it.
Interesting observation. Dave-era Survivor was often compared to Foreigner. Jimi-era was compared to Journey. Of course, Foreigner themselves sounded a lot more like Journey by the mid 80s! Really I would put all three bands, along with Styx, Jefferson Starship/Starship, Loverboy, and even Night Ranger in the same genre.
'Frankie Sullivan' is without a shadow of a doubt one of the most underrated guitar heroes. His playing is epic and so are his songwriting skills, let alone his tone is massive. Anyone interested in listening to Frankies amazing soloing listen to "I'm Not That Man Anymore," as well of course anything else he's ever done or will do.
Epic songwriting skills? I think Frankie has talent (Reach and Talkin' bout love) but Peterik wrote most of virtually every song on the 80's albums(aside from Caught on the Game and Take you on a Saturday) Frankie was a great editor and came up with memorable riffs and occasional nice lyrics.
Good Lord folks, this song is incredible. First off, Marc is destroying the 🥁 kit. Frankie shreds the axe 🎸 during the solo. Dave just singing 🎤 his ass off. The twin guitars 🎸 🎸 just so special & the harmonies from Jim & Frankie just ridiculously entertaining!!!
👉SUCH A GREAT SONG AND BAND I SAW THEM FOR FIRST TIME IN 1980 at *ILLINOIS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY* with *THE KINGS* BEFORE POOR MAN SON WAS ON THE CHART…I RAN INTO JIM PETERIK A FEW TIMES NICE GUY TOLD HIM ABOUT THIS CONCERT AT A WHITE HEN(IHP,wolf/Joliet Rd)OF ALL PLACES HE WAS SHOCKED CAUSE ONLY A FEW PEOPLE WAS THERE MY TWIN BROTHER WAS A STUDENT THERE..I WAS A FAN THEN AND NOW *DAVE BICKLER* FAVORITE VOCALS - saw them with him in Thanksgiving Eve 1992 at Synergy West Chicago. 👍💕PLEASE COME BACK TOGETHER!! ❤❤❤❤❤SURVIVOR! Godspeed 🙏Jimi Jamison.
Actually, you want to check out "Love is on my Side" from their awesome 1981 Premonition album if you truly want to here that Iron Maiden signature "galloping" and Nicko McBrain style drumming. So Lizzy/Maiden I'd say. :) That song lends itself to Thin Lizzy which according to Jim Peterik's book, guitarist Frankie cites Lizzy as one of his influence. Bickler vocals are amazing as usual. Here it the song. ua-cam.com/video/7hez2U9_qX0/v-deo.html
Jim Peterik, Frankie Sullivan and Dave Bickler in that BAD-ASS beret! This song and whole entire album ( matter of fact) kicks total ass! Love Survivor, 80' s best decade ever for music.
Been a pro guitarist most my life, Never heard a singer with Dave Bucklers tone, his voice sounds like a beautiful. bell ringing, angel voice, one of a kind, amazing... Jimmy Gallagher
Well we rifle through the night, Like riders on the run now, in the street-- Holding back the blinding light, 'cause a thousand eyes can be so indiscreet, And we hide away, love the night away, And we run between the shadows and the light, We're children of the night, Runnin' from the light, Children of the night, Of the night, oh yeah.* In the day we pass like strangers, 'cause we fear the consequences of our love, And we realize the danger, Still we choose to take our chances on our love, And we hide away, love the night away, And we run between the shadows and the light, We're children of the night, Runnin' from the light, Children of the night, Of the night, oh yeah.* There's a fine line, such a fine line, a very fine--line, Between the day and the nighttime, The wrong and the right time, for makin' sweet love, Find a place to hide, anyplace to hide, hidin' in the -- darkness, Feels like the right time, for love in the nighttime, For makin' sweet love
Has that Eddie and the Cruisers feel...such amazing music. A perfect blend of instruments and vocals. Rediscovering this album more than 30 years later....love this...nothing like it today.
Does anyone else think Marc Droubay is an underrated drummer? He could do a lot more with a smaller kit than many rock drummers with huge double-bass rigs, plus he has such tasteful fills even on ballads. The end is one of his finest moments.
Agreed, Simon Kirke does a lot with a small drum-kit, as does Bobby Elliott of the Hollies. Simon Kirke did some tasteful session work with John Wetton on his first solo album, Caught in the Crossfire.
This entire LP is AMAZING...Mark was incredibly underrated as a drummer...he plays perfect time and groove on this record and Bickler was the perfect vocalist...he was one of the great rock voices...never fully appreciated because of one massive hit song...they never grabbed an image or did gimmicky stuff...not complicated rock music, but the feel was spot on
The single almost hurt them... Kind of how an actor might get typecasted and always known as a certain character they played. Survivor will always be known and compared to one good song. The vast majority know and view them solely in terms of one song instead is a great band will a great catalog. Hell, this is the first time I'm hearing a survivor song besides Eye of the Tiger, and only then because I was curious if they were any good apart from that one song.
He looked like a cross between Cary Elwes and John Malkovich. How could we NOT swoon over him. And the soaring voice that would've been fine on it's own, even without that gorgeous face.
magic survivor song, yes dave bickler has a great voice, him and jimi jameson are both magic singers for survivor, and we are the children of the night.
Sharon Moore dave left in 1983 cause he had to have an operation on his vocals. when he came back from it haveing trouble he left, hence jimi came in. i like jimi better then dave. but both are great singers.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💯 insane energy and vibes , the harmony was superb, and his lead vocals have so much firepower and spirit . They were grooving like nobodies business . 💯🙌
I noticed that back then the musicians could also sing backup vocals and some also lead entire songs. They were so multi-talented. And let's not forget they could write their own songs and arrange them :)
I was heavily into Survivor from the age of 6 on through right when the hits dried up, but being a small kid then I never owned the records. Now at 39 and always looking for their albums and having had them several times you need to hear EVERY SURVIVOR ALBUM! They are all brilliant both with Dave Bickler and especially with Jimi Jamison who tragically died recently. I miss the music of the decades before the 90s came and everything was all about the marketing and selling what turned from music into PRODUCT. Don't get me wrong the 90s had some great music it wasn't all like that, but the greed factor started to go completely off the rails then even more so now. It's a shame because the resulting effect is all good music is done on the independent level and the charts you can write off completely. Fast forward if I could back to the 80s it was always something worthwhile on the radio. That's sad. Survivor have a lot of emotion and soul in their music. A Chicago band, they paid their dues and were influenced to a certain extent by Styx. A lot of bands were and no wrong in that!
I ran into Jim peterik a few months ago. Coming out of walgreens of all places. He was dressed like a rockstar too...was very cool to talk to me for a few minutes. Being a huge fan for over 30 years, still am.
@@tttarms1970 wow thats awesome love his style so much individuality you must have thought you were dreaming cool im still listening in 2022 to all their music 😎👏👍💓😊
Found this song this week after buying the Eye of the Tiger LP and it's ... just as good as the title track. Maybe better due to the bias of having not heard it a million times I guess. My god. Perfect for pumping iron, running, generally feeling like you're ready to rule ass. What a band, this is as good as hard rock gets along with early Def Leppard IMO.

Well we rifle through the night,
Like riders on the run now, in the street--
Holding back the blinding light,
'cause a thousand eyes can be so indiscreet,
And we hide away, love the night away,
And we run between the shadows and the light,
We're children of the night,
Runnin' from the light,
Children of the night,
Of the night, oh yeah.*
In the day we pass like strangers,
'cause we fear the consequences of our love,
And we realize the danger,
Still we choose to take our chances on our love,
And we hide away, love the night away,
And we run between the shadows and the light,
We're children of the night,
Runnin' from the light,
Children of the night,
Of the night, oh yeah.*
There's a fine line, such a fine line, a very fine--line,
Between the day and the nighttime,
The wrong and the right time, for makin' sweet love,
Find a place to hide, anyplace to hide, hidin' in the -- darkness,
Feels like the right time, for love in the nighttime,
For makin' sweet love
Has that Eddie and the Cruisers feel...such amazing music. A perfect blend of instruments and vocals. Rediscovering this album more than 30 years later....love this...nothing like it today.
