    I’ve never clicked so fast!! ❤️❤️❤️ My favorite band!! Blackbird MUST be next. This song was never performed live because of that high note at the end… Myles was afraid he couldn’t hit it live. But he NAILED it! Myles Kennedy is the best rock singer today, IMO. And he can play a mean guitar, along with the other guitar player, Mark Tremonti (guitar god and master shredder). PLEASE do Blackbird! ❤️❤️❤️🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸🎸

      Myles is amazing! I met him quite a few times when he was singing with The Mayfield Four, here in Spokane. He and his band used to play a ton of venues here local and my friends had a band that used to open for them a lot. Myles is the real deal, I’m so glad he has finally broken through and the world can see what we saw a LONG time ago

    I was there that night and, let me tell you, the applause and cheering went on long after this video ended. I love the little smile Mark gives to Myles after he hit THAT note. Definitely a special gig that one - it will live long in the memory. Just for info - yes, there was a full 50 piece orchestra (The Parallax Orchestra) on stage with them and the reason they never usually perform this song live, despite the fans loving it so much, is it is monumentally difficult to sing that high note at the end.

  • @Corrow20

    Blackbird (live from Wembley)
    In Loving Memory (live) - the guitarist, Mark, wrote this about his mother when she passed. Very emotional
    Wonderful Life / Watch Over You (live) - this is an acoustic with just Myles playing and singing
    And for something from their heavier side check out Cry of Achilles (lyric video)
    This is a criminally underated band who are all amazing at their instruments and the vocal range of Myles is amazing. They are also known for their guitar solos as you will see if you watch Blackbird live. Glad you all enjoyed this.

    I didn't realize y'all reacted to this, sorry I missed this 2 years ago. Alter Bridge is an extremely talented band, having the lead guitarist, bass, and drummer from Creed is a pretty damn good start! Then insert arguably the top vocalist in rock right now in Myles Kennedy, who also is good on guitar, you have what you heard above. Plus the Parallax Orchestra in The Royal Albert Hall? This was magic. Glad you got a chance to listen to this. Also, almost forgot Parallax does have horns (you did hear them).

And both of them harmonizing is so good. I'm sure by know you've figured this out already, but they used to be Creed before Miles Kennedy joined the group. These guys got so much good music. Blackbird is also worth checking out. Also, Show Me a Leader is great.

    Alter Bridge is my favorite band and this song is from my favorite album.
    Blackbird is widely recognized as their best song and I think Isolation or Waters Rising would be a good song to hear the heavier side of Alter Bridge.
    You both have probably heard of the band Creed in the early 2000s. This is 3/4 of Creed plus a new singer that also playes the guitar. Much better band.
    Myles Kennedy (the lead singer) and Chris Cornell are my favorite vocalists of all time. You should check out some Soundgarden/Auduoslave, or better yet Say Hello 2 Heaven by Temple of the Dog that Chris Cornell wrote about his friend that died of a drug overdose. He hits a high note late in that song even higher than Myles hit in this song

    • @michellepetrillo2235
      @michellepetrillo2235 2 роки тому +1

      No, Words Darker than their Wings is a “conversation” between Mark and Myles about religion- Mark believes, Myles has his doubts- so this is their conversation between them about whether each believes (or not). Myles father died when he was 5 years old, because they were very religious but their religion didn’t believe in medicine. Hence his doubts, since his father died so young. You are thinking of Blackbird, which was written for a FRIEND of Myles who died too young (not a band member).
