Can't believe you're gone,I saw you when I was 17 years old, now I'm 49,I won't forget it you guys were nice to me,Mark signed my ticket stub and shook my hand, can't believe you're gone,R.I.P brother
Everyone says they wished they could build a time machine and go back to the 80s. I was a teen in the 80s and it was great! Everyday I get into my time machine by coming to UA-cam
Exactly. If this is as close as we're gonna get to a time machine, I'll take it :) I still remember the first time i heard this song. It became an instant favorite.
My mom passed away three weeks ago...by accident I came across this song as I had forgotten about this classic tune. Hearing the lyrics and the beautiful melody drove me to tears as my Mom immediately came to mind. Great timeless song! RIP MOM
My high school love passed away last year...we were teenagers in the 80s then went on to lead separate lives and reconnected couple years before he passed.. for almost 30 we both still deep down loved each other still ...alot of 80s band songs remind me of him ...fly fallen angel til we meet again!!!
House of Broken Love and this song................If it doesn't tear you up, then everything is perfect in your life...lol. These two songs, in my opinion are top 5 all time. THEY ARE SO PHENOMENAL!!!
I love Great White too, sadly there are 2 versions now. I still take Jack Russell's Great White over the other version, he tackled his demons and has been sober now for years. He still sounds great too. I sing along to their old songs like this every few days, am a singer because I simply love to sing. But yeah this song definitely gives all the feels...
Were they though? Once Bitten went platinum, and Twice Shy went double platinum, and they were all over MTV and playing huge shows. I'd say they were pretty famous and successful?
@@joeblough261Dude; when compared 2 some of there contemporaries, Great White definitely qualifies as "underrated" (despite the overuse of that term).
This song is phenomenal!!! Such a beautiful song!!! Nothing will ever come close to the music of the 80’s. These songs help me get thru the hell of 2023!!!
I'm so happy i grew up in the 80s Good times. Good memories. 80s heavy metal was the best ever hands down. God i miss my young teen days in the 80s. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
How in the world was this song not a huge hit I will never understand. It is so much better than most of the power ballads that did make the top ten on the billboard chart. This song is perfection to me. The singing, piano, and guitar solo is amazing.
It's beautiful. The guitar solo is amazing and to me this song was a hit. I listened to it 20 years ago over and over...today I am listening to it again.
They were #9 in 1987,88, 89, 90, 91, 94 and 99 and Angel SOng tore up MTV charts and awards. During the 80s this stuff wasnt played on the radio, no streaming or itunes. They got top ten w no radio play.. THATS a fan base ;)
these were the greatest songs written. BUT, you had to have lived wham they were written,and sung. The times were different then...its REALLY hard to explain...but these songs reached the deepest parts of your soul as almost every song was relatable to thru either a lost love, or just simply a situation that you had gone though,or are going through at the time you heard them. for me,... this is what i grew up with... and i was privileged to see these bands live, and the songs sounded the same as the did on the "album"...i just feel bad for those who never had the chance to live then, to have hadlthe chance to see such a performance as these, all these bands once gave...i know i will NEVER forget the shows i saw!》
You said this so perfect....I was privileged to open for them twice, once in a club and once at the Celebrity Theatre. Both nights were epic. They are such cool guys
Fly away and broken schemes..fly.. can you please help me to get the piano score for this.. I have a 11 year old girl who has come to me for lessons and I think this would be beautiful for a 11 year old
Fallen angel ripped and bruised Think on better days Life is rude, treats you bad Tears your wings away Raise your eyes to star and sky Believe in fly always Take your dreams, your broken schemes And sweep the past away Fly lonely angel High above these streets Fly lonely angel Far away from mad desire Hollywood ain't paved with gold It's just a trick of light Sunset falls on stars of old And blinds you with its light A spiders web of tangled lives Lays stretched across the hills From distances it's glistening Like El Dorado's halls Fly lonely angel High above these streets of fire Fly lonely angel Far away from mad desire The dream was light And fragrant nights But how were you to know The streets are hard They're mean and scared Where only fools find gold Fly lonely angel High above these streets of fire Fly lonely angel Far away from mad desire Fly lonely angel Spread your wings another way Fly lonely angel Find a better way A better day
Such a great power ballad, they need to bring these 80s songs back today now to show that rock bands have a great big heart when they write rock music, Great White is a great band
I Adore this One , but i don' t really remember when i heard It for the first time . Surely , i was very young ( now , i ' m 47 old ) . So special , for me . This i know , this i feel , this Is FOREVER .
Even though the tragedy had happened this band deserves appreciation of their love for each other the fans .Your voice is of an angel .Thank you for the beautiful songs God Bless You all
"fly lonely angel. high above these streets of fire,.fly lonely angel, spread your wings another way" crazy song lyrics considering what happened in the station fire. its like a premonition , i think about it every time i hear this song. haunting
Everytime i here this it makes me cry. I miss my 2 big brothers i feel so lost without them love you both so much i know i will see you both again in heaven rip
This was one of many 80s Hard Rock songs played at my dear friend's funeral just 2 months into our senior year. 💔 I couldn't listen without crying for years. But it's truly a beautiful song & I know he was looking down, so proud we were playing his favorite. ❤ RIP Chuck ❤️
This song (and video) is so musically perfect...When they were at their peak...Too bad radio now only plays bullsht no-talent music, and not deserving songs like this one.
You got that right my friend. Thank God we do have a FM station called The Cave. Were it not for that, I really could care less about listening to the car radio.
Oldie but goodie here. A classic. Such a beautiful song. Beautiful music. Awesome vocals. One of my favorite ballads. Good times. Good memories 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
This song was named very simple. In my Senior High School memory book 31 years ago I wrote it down as my favorite song. It is to this day my favorite song. The instrumentals the vocals and the lyrics especially are amazing. I still get chills listening to it. I've informed my family that I want it played at my funeral. It's truly a masterpiece.
the piano to guitar transition gives me the same awesome feeling that it did when this song came out and i heard it for the first time. i wait for it with great anticipation every time i hear this song. never get tired of it. truly a superb melody.
Great White is one of the few great bands from that period that I never got a chance to see live. This song like so many others they made is simply timeless. Nothing today even comes close.
+REMAXJEREMY I wasted my time back then working, now i'm in Jack's shoes... This band's music helped me through some troubled times, and still lifts my spirits at 49 years old!!!
TodayWasAGoodDay9 yes I agree. Great White opened up for Judas priest back.in 1984 at Madison square garden. While my sister and boyfriend were huge priest fans I went to go see great white. I was a teenager. And they were incredible and better than priest. I just recently saw great white at viejas two weeks ago, again incredible.
I lived on the same Block where Great White was born late 70s Early 80s pre Jack and aka Dante Fox..unbelievable Rockers..Mark the best guitarist I've ever known... Jack's vocals phenomenal.... Back yard partys 10 kegs $3 admission and freedom you will never see again. G.W. fan from Alwood Street. Thanks Mark Kindel and Jack Russell for awesome contributions to Rock and making it timeless..
Been a Great White fan from the beginning and was lucky enough to meet and hang out with them last year after a show for a few hours. These boys are so real and genuine with their fans. Thanks guys for some great music and will be seeing you again in August!! Luv ya.
Know they don't make music like this anymore. They are a fantastic band. And Music now days. On the car radio. I can't believe half the stuff they put on the Radio. My goodness.
this song...the lyrics, the music, the vocals, the guitars, the percussion and then that keyboard solo, followed by the guitar solo in the middle--its a masterpiece. my eyes are rarely dry when i hear it. very moving. its hard to imagine its the same guys singing "twice shy". thanks guys, i'm sorry for your loss in that tragic fire.
What an incredible song, what good instrumental arrangements, that guitar solo gives a lot of feeling to the song and that lyrics is for reflection. To hell with those people who say that glam metal is plastic music, these bands were and are incredible, these bands were made up of true musicians, from excellent instrumentalists to very capable composers. The 80s ended in years, but artistically they will be present forever. this song is 1,000,000 times better than all this modern "music". People, this is art, this is MUSIC.
you so said it!!! I'm glad Im 43 and was able to appreciate the music while I was young. today's crap is just that with exceptions. linkinpark 3 days grace etc
I have a 15 year old son. He was so excited to see Motley Crue twice. He wants to go see Def Leppard. I'm trying to gather the money. He has seen them before. He loves Poison. You might laugh but me being 39 got him into Black Veil Brides. If you are looking for amazing bands like the 80's 90's stuff.... Crashdiet is like a modern Skid Row. Negative is just amazing. Reckless Love, kind of cheesy but fun. These bands are from Sweden and Finland. I go to Finland every year. My friend is in a band called Groupie High School over there. I can keep up with those youngins lol At least for a few weeks.
Thank you Sandra Moore, I found these bands as well from Sweden and they're really cool bands with that 80's "glam" "Hair" Rock!! style. : Crazy Lixx, Loud N' Nasty, Vains of jenna. I don't know if they are still active, but they have great music in Sweden they call it “sleaze rock” . Keep Rock Alive!!!
Wow...truly a masterpiece and one of Great White's best hits. The best part is at 2:59 ohhh myyy🎻😳Glad I grew up in those years to truly appreciate what good music is☺
Franki Anthony- I beg to differ! The piano solo is the BEST part!! 2:23 Michael Lardie plate so amazing- it touches my soul every time I listen to it!!💞🎹🎶
@@nancybuist0328 Yes the piano solo is totally awesome..however one cannot dismiss how the piano solo leads to the chilling crying of the electric guitar 🤩 Please get me a time machine 😊
Wow! This group and their heartfelt music just touches my soul. It uplifts. I am so glad that I was part of that wonderful generation. I sure miss those good ole days, but this group and their music shall live on forever in my heart. :D
I'm fortunate to have seen them in 2022, and Jack Russell in 2023. In 2 different OKLAHOMA casinos. I have to say that both were such awesome talented men from my era of music. Im a true Metal Head. One of GOD'S true talented creations of the 80s
There are no words that could try to convey the chasm that is in my heart listening to this and thinking about my wife i lost to cancer when she was only 27. she was beautiful and i am glad that she knew how much she meant to me. She never had to wonder about what her husband thought. This was a song that we shared our deepest longings and achieved so much to. Fly lonely Angel.
That is heartbreaking. I'm so sorry you lost her so young. I hope you were able to find happiness again. I'm sure she is lovingly watching over you. This is a hauntingly beautiful song.
+Sandra Moore Thank you and God Bless your heart. There is a tragic story, more so than you could imagine with this. Maybe one day i will come to grips with it. There have been many, many nights of thoughts of what i wish i could have done and the pain of feeling helpless. I encounter these again when i hear this song. She was precious to me. The comfort comes from the fact that i know that there is no doubt she knows how much she was loved and adored. I have found happiness again. The Lord blessed me with a sweet loving wife that i love very much. I have made a dedication to the Lord in my soul to let her know everyday how much she is loved and cared for and that there is nothing i would not do for her. I am so thankful and blessed. I do not speak about the horror of watching someone i loved so deeply die right before my eyes and being helpless to stop her suffering. i have never endured such mental strain it changed me forever. But, i would be remiss if i did not acknowledge what i feel when i hear this song. It is strange how beautiful it is yet torturous to my soul. My wife now knows what it did to me and we move on. But i will never forget the secrets that were shared and the love we had.
She knew love in her short life, she was lucky to have you. It hard to remember that it was supposed to happen, because it did happen. I hope you are reunited in heaven. I am sorry for your loss.
They sure don't brother. Let me suggest Cody Jinks to you. He's red dirt country, but the he writes his own lyrics and brother let me tell ya, its about us.
I saw these guy's in concert with Trixter and Scorpions in Toronto....I dedicate this song to my daughter .she was 18yrs old ..she was hit by a drunk driver..i had to let her go off life support she was brain dead...i find some comfort knowing she saved 7 lives..Fly my beautiful butterfly i will see you again..Till then ..mommy loves you ..misses you..
I'm so sorry for your loss. My prayers go out to you . And I know how much it hurts. Because I lost my 21 year old son on April .28, 2017. All you can do is always hold to the memories you had together. God bless you.
God bless you my friend. Wow. You were put in a situation you handled with class and dignity. Im sorry for your loss. Your story hit me like a brick.....amazing.
This song touches my soul. So deep jn my heart and soul. Thank you. Piano is beautiful. Fly in a new direction A better way. A better day So spread those wings and fly like a Angel
Back in the 80s, I used to drive around lookin' for killer weed, now I drive around lookin' for weed killer. I'm in my 50s now and doin well, healthy with a beautiful family. The 80s were something else, I was there, I lived it, had an amazing time and I'm still here ... 🤘🔥🤘
I live in R.I..was thinking of going to the concert at the STATION that night,couple of friends went and made it out,ERIC AND PETE.,still love these songs,it is what it is.peace
I remember seeing Great White on MTV and thinking that Jack Russell was comedian Bobcat Goldthwait in a wig. These guys had some great songs and videos. I am happy to have had them as participants in the soundtrack of my life when I was in my teens. Its hard to believe how fast adulthood and senior years have crept upon us,especially when seeing this video that instantly takes us back to the era and time we first heard it. Life is too short. RIP Mr Russell,we all will forever be grateful for what you have given us.
Rock ballads don't get any better than this....raw heartfelt emotion... incredible melody.. awesome keyboards...great riffs...We really miss Jack Russell..get well soon Jack!!
Saw these guys twice. One of the best bands I ever saw in the 80's-90's. Singer is absolutely amazing. Didn't get credit they deserved. Check them out covering Zepplin tunes & you will become a believer.
I was a teenager when Led Zeppelin released their first album, and you'll get no argument here from me. Great White was absolutely one of my favorite bands of the 80's.
In my opinion, one of the best ballads ever written...this song is so awesome, over 30yrs old but still awesome...the piano lines and solo were incredible...great white rules...
Today, August 7th 2024 we lost Jack Russell. He loved his fans more than any other rock star. Thankfully he left us so much incredible music that he will live on through. Rest in Peace Jack. You are already missed so very much!!
RIP..... So many memories.. I'm thankful that I got to see them in person in Tulsa Oklahoma
😢

RIP Jack, you and Great White gave me so many amazing 80's memories.
Can’t believe we lost a legend today. Thank you for the best of the 80’s and beyond. Rip jack.
My mom passed away three weeks ago...by accident I came across this song as I had forgotten about this classic tune. Hearing the lyrics and the beautiful melody drove me to tears as my Mom immediately came to mind. Great timeless song!
RIP MOM

So very sorry for your loss. I know she was a beautiful soul & I know she lives on & you'll be together with her again someday 💕 ✨️ 💓

This band was so underrated !! I love Great White. I listen to them often going down the road in my big truck. Never gets old
I drive a LONLY truck too!!!!! People will never get it👍. Without US the United States would literally shut down.
House of Broken Love and this song................If it doesn't tear you up, then everything is perfect in your life...lol. These two songs, in my opinion are top 5 all time. THEY ARE SO PHENOMENAL!!!

Yes please!!!!!
I'm hoping to be able to play piano likethat

Good times. Good memories.
80s heavy metal was the best ever hands down. God i miss my young teen days in the 80s.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
How in the world was this song not a huge hit I will never understand. It is so much better than most of the power ballads that did make the top ten on the billboard chart. This song is perfection to me. The singing, piano, and guitar solo is amazing.
John Katsoudas I agree brother
It did chart. I think it hit #31 on the pop charts. Their second biggest hit behind once bitten, twice shy
It's beautiful. The guitar solo is amazing and to me this song was a hit. I listened to it 20 years ago over and over...today I am listening to it again.
They were #9 in 1987,88, 89, 90, 91, 94 and 99 and Angel SOng tore up MTV charts and awards. During the 80s this stuff wasnt played on the radio, no streaming or itunes. They got top ten w no radio play.. THATS a fan base ;)

it might just be me, but i personally think this is one of their most underrated songs
never underrated,just you dude!!
Great White is underrated. They’re as good as any of the top bands in the 80’s, in my book.
One of their best songs..

“Hollywood ain’t paved of gold of gold, it’s just a trick of light.” I love this line, but this whole song is well written.
One of my brothers passed today and this is what I thought of. Fly high Darrin.
Definetely one of the best 80s ballads ... between Mark Kendall bluesy leads and Jack Russel fantastic vocal performance ,this song takes your heart 💙
Fallen angel ripped and bruised
Think on better days
Life is rude, treats you bad
Tears your wings away
Raise your eyes to star and sky
Believe in fly always
Take your dreams, your broken schemes
And sweep the past away
Fly lonely angel
High above these streets
Fly lonely angel
Far away from mad desire
Hollywood ain't paved with gold
It's just a trick of light
Sunset falls on stars of old
And blinds you with its light
A spiders web of tangled lives
Lays stretched across the hills
From distances it's glistening
Like El Dorado's halls
Fly lonely angel
High above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
Far away from mad desire
The dream was light
And fragrant nights
But how were you to know
The streets are hard
They're mean and scared
Where only fools find gold
Fly lonely angel
High above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
Far away from mad desire
Fly lonely angel
Spread your wings another way
Fly lonely angel
Find a better way
A better day
Thank you so much for posting the lyrics. Beautiful 💜
Thanks a lot for the lyrics.
So underrated ...great band ..great voice..should have been Grammy winners!
Such a great power ballad, they need to bring these 80s songs back today now to show that rock bands have a great big heart when they write rock music, Great White is a great band
I Adore this One , but i don' t really remember when i heard It for the first time . Surely , i was very young ( now , i ' m 47 old ) . So special , for me . This i know , this i feel , this Is FOREVER .
Never happen when wap is the concern of record companies. Rock died when Kurt gave a 12g a blow job its over just enjoy the past
a lot of bands on Frontiers Records are still writing and recording this kind of classic rock, go check them out :)
Dave V.; As u noted, POWER BALLAD!!!!! The EPITOME of such.
That piano...and that guitar solo....damn!
Bryan Jones totally agree it give me goose bumps every time I hear it
It's your grand dad...with blonde hair!
Bryan Jones peace of mind
❤❤🤟
The 80s I saw them at six flags in dfw when this came out
My favorite group…. Jacks voice is amazing….
One of the best groups the 80's ever had...Jack's voice is amazing in every song...love these guys💜💜
Their music is far deeper than common rock n roll. It reaches the soul, and that is not an easy task.
Even though the tragedy had happened this band deserves appreciation of their love for each other the fans .Your voice is of an angel .Thank you for the beautiful songs God Bless You all
"fly lonely angel. high above these streets of fire,.fly lonely angel, spread your wings another way"

This was one of many 80s Hard Rock songs played at my dear friend's funeral just 2 months into our senior year. 💔 I couldn't listen without crying for years. But it's truly a beautiful song & I know he was looking down, so proud we were playing his favorite. ❤ RIP Chuck ❤️
It's such a beautiful song 🎶⚘️
Loved this song since I was a teen!! 40s now and the piano in this song still gets me
This song (and video) is so musically perfect...When they were at their peak...Too bad radio now only plays bullsht no-talent music, and not deserving songs like this one.
Totally agree
Yeah, tell me about it......
You got that right my friend. Thank God we do have a FM station called The Cave. Were it not for that, I really could care less about listening to the car radio.
Agreed.....to much crap on the radio these days
Nirvana and the whole fucking seatalle shit suicided rock and roll
We can always bring back the 80’s music with our playlists. 🤟. Keep on rocking my friends 💯
Got call at 345 am. My dad just passed.. Got in my truck to go get mom and this song was playing on radio. Coincidence??
I absolutely love this song and I’m only in my 20s! 80s music for life
RIP to all the metal heads that died in The Station nightclub fire in West Warwick, RI.
Along with the band member Ty Longley who's wife was pregnant with their only baby..
@@armyretired28 yes Heidi Peralta. Was a tumultuous time in my life since I had gotten to know all of them. God bless them all.
Hauntingly beautiful. I love their sound and wondered also why this song wasn’t a major hit. 💗🕊
I love this song. The piano part is just...amazing :)
Sad day. You will be missed Jack. Cheers for all the tunes.
I love this song. It's hauntingly beautiful.These guys are so talented! If I had anyone left I would have them play it at my funeral. Everyone's gone.
WILL FOREVER LIVE IN THE 80 Z....
Oldie but goodie here. A classic. Such a beautiful song. Beautiful music. Awesome vocals. One of my favorite ballads. Good times. Good memories

Actual musicians, actual composition, actual artistic expression.
These era will outlast everything after it. 🤘
There will never be music better than the 80's rock and roll. Love it. Meant something back then, and still does today.
"Hair rock"? No, this is just a classic power rock ballad at its finest!
liselle sloan yep
Pump it up, pretty angel yeahhh....piano and guitar solo are powerfully moving
liselle sloan ...Amén to that, I loved this band. They were rock GODS!!!
liselle sloan yup!

the piano to guitar transition gives me the same awesome feeling that it did when this song came out and i heard it for the first time. i wait for it with great anticipation every time i hear this song. never get tired of it. truly a superb melody.
80's, I was there and I can fell the music...
Great White is one of the few great bands from that period that I never got a chance to see live. This song like so many others they made is simply timeless. Nothing today even comes close.
+REMAXJEREMY I wasted my time back then working, now i'm in Jack's shoes... This band's music helped me through some troubled times, and still lifts my spirits at 49 years old!!!
+Dave Davis
Cool post dave.
TodayWasAGoodDay9 yes I agree. Great White opened up for Judas priest back.in 1984 at Madison square garden. While my sister and boyfriend were huge priest fans I went to go see great white. I was a teenager. And they were incredible and better than priest. I just recently saw great white at viejas two weeks ago, again incredible.
REMAXJEREMY yes Jack russel.is an amazing artist. I felt badly about his back issue, I went through it with my husband. So much for one to go through.
I lived on the same Block where Great White was born late 70s
Early 80s pre Jack and aka Dante Fox..unbelievable Rockers..Mark the best guitarist I've ever known...
Jack's vocals phenomenal....
Back yard partys 10 kegs

G.W. fan from Alwood Street.
Thanks Mark Kindel and Jack Russell for awesome contributions to Rock and making it timeless..
This gave me goosebumps that whole way through. Beautiful!!
Been a Great White fan from the beginning and was lucky enough to meet and hang out with them last year after a show for a few hours. These boys are so real and genuine with their fans. Thanks guys for some great music and will be seeing you again in August!! Luv ya.
So sad! Loved Great White. The best days and music ever. RIP Jack. You are a shiny star to me.
Know they don't make music like this anymore.
They are a fantastic band.
And Music now days.
On the car radio.
I can't believe half the stuff they put on the Radio.
My goodness.
Jojo Elicha 80 music it help me to walk in a simple life
Letthemusiclive
Truly incredible
Beautiful
The perfect ballad. RIP Jack.
One of the best rock ballads EVER!!!!
Something about that guitar solo. Great song. Song never gets old.
The Angel Song from Great White is my all time love ballad ever. Truly a awesome song. Thank you Great White for created this song.
Thank you Jack Russell for sharing your God given talent with us.
Rest in Peace Rock Star 👑
The Greatest song ever to be achieved by a rock band! The Angel Song is forever a landmark in music history!
this song...the lyrics, the music, the vocals, the guitars, the percussion and then that keyboard solo, followed by the guitar solo in the middle--its a masterpiece.
my eyes are rarely dry when i hear it. very moving.
its hard to imagine its the same guys singing "twice shy".
thanks guys, i'm sorry for your loss in that tragic fire.
R.I.P JACK RUSSEL, Truly the voice of an angel 🙏🙏
What an incredible song, what good instrumental arrangements, that guitar solo gives a lot of feeling to the song and that lyrics is for reflection. To hell with those people who say that glam metal is plastic music, these bands were and are incredible, these bands were made up of true musicians, from excellent instrumentalists to very capable composers. The 80s ended in years, but artistically they will be present forever. this song is 1,000,000 times better than all this modern "music". People, this is art, this is MUSIC.
I agree with you.
Kendall is a truly great guitarist
The 80's they were DEFINITELY 1 OF THE BEST BANDS....House of Broken Love 2 n does Zeppelin GREAT !!!!
The 80s
Well said!!!!!!!
That voice is unique and beyond amazing.
I can't lie, i'm sitting here pretty stunned right now.
Rest In Peace Jack! Music of my youth and still at 57 years old!
you so said it!!! I'm glad Im 43 and was able to appreciate the music while I was young. today's crap is just that with exceptions. linkinpark 3 days grace etc
+Jessica Young So totally agreed. Music today lacks heart and the soul that it had back then
I have a 15 year old son. He was so excited to see Motley Crue twice. He wants to go see Def Leppard. I'm trying to gather the money. He has seen them before. He loves Poison. You might laugh but me being 39 got him into Black Veil Brides. If you are looking for amazing bands like the 80's 90's stuff.... Crashdiet is like a modern Skid Row. Negative is just amazing. Reckless Love, kind of cheesy but fun. These bands are from Sweden and Finland. I go to Finland every year. My friend is in a band called Groupie High School over there. I can keep up with those youngins lol At least for a few weeks.
Thank you Sandra Moore, I found these bands as well from Sweden and they're really cool bands with that 80's "glam" "Hair" Rock!! style. : Crazy Lixx, Loud N' Nasty, Vains of jenna. I don't know if they are still active, but they have great music in Sweden they call it “sleaze rock” . Keep Rock Alive!!!
Jessica Young 47 years old and still remember it like when I was 20.
Class o' '89 here...;)
Rest in power, Russell. We love u, your voice will live on forever ❤❤❤ condolences from Brazil 🦈💙
Wow...truly a masterpiece and one of Great White's best hits. The best part is at 2:59 ohhh myyy🎻😳Glad I grew up in those years to truly appreciate what good music is☺
Franki Anthony- I beg to differ! The piano solo is the BEST part!! 2:23 Michael Lardie plate so amazing- it touches my soul every time I listen to it!!💞🎹🎶
@@nancybuist0328 Yes the piano solo is totally awesome..however one cannot dismiss how the piano solo leads to the chilling crying of the electric guitar 🤩 Please get me a time machine 😊
He'll yes !
I will forever be a rock n roll creature. And this was some of the best
Wow! This group and their heartfelt music just touches my soul. It uplifts. I am so glad that I was part of that wonderful generation. I sure miss those good ole days, but this group and their music shall live on forever in my heart. :D
I'm fortunate to have seen them in 2022, and Jack Russell in 2023. In 2 different OKLAHOMA casinos. I have to say that both were such awesome talented men from my era of music. Im a true Metal Head. One of GOD'S true talented creations of the 80s
There are no words that could try to convey the chasm that is in my heart listening to this and thinking about my wife i lost to cancer when she was only 27.
she was beautiful and i am glad that she knew how much she meant to me. She never had to wonder about what her husband thought.
This was a song that we shared our deepest longings and achieved so much to.
Fly lonely Angel.
That is heartbreaking. I'm so sorry you lost her so young. I hope you were able to find happiness again. I'm sure she is lovingly watching over you. This is a hauntingly beautiful song.
+Sandra Moore
Thank you and God Bless your heart.
There is a tragic story, more so than you could imagine with this. Maybe one day i will come to grips with it. There have been many, many nights of thoughts of what i wish i could have done and the pain of feeling helpless.
I encounter these again when i hear this song. She was precious to me.
The comfort comes from the fact that i know that there is no doubt she knows how much she was loved and adored.
I have found happiness again. The Lord blessed me with a sweet loving wife that i love very much. I have made a dedication to the Lord in my soul to let her know everyday how much she is loved and cared for and that there is nothing i would not do for her. I am so thankful and blessed.
I do not speak about the horror of watching someone i loved so deeply die right before my eyes and being helpless to stop her suffering. i have never endured such mental strain it changed me forever. But, i would be remiss if i did not acknowledge what i feel when i hear this song. It is strange how beautiful it is yet torturous to my soul.
My wife now knows what it did to me and we move on.
But i will never forget the secrets that were shared and the love we had.
She knew love in her short life, she was lucky to have you. It hard to remember that it was supposed to happen, because it did happen. I hope you are reunited in heaven. I am sorry for your loss.
my deepest sympathies with you,i could never understand what feels like,but god be with u n your thoughts ,God bless you.
+senzo tanaka
God Bless your sweet heart.
RIP JACK RUSSELL. He lived out his dream of being a rock star. How many can say that?
Very underrated band. They were great.
very underrated... One of the best bands of that era
Thank you for all of your kind words. I was crying when sang this in the studio.. God bless you all
@@jackrussell4174 Thank YOU for all the awesome work with Great White! Your music helps me through the tough times, and pumps me up in the best!
They were supposedly much better live than most other bands.
They don't make music like this anymore!
I wish they did
They sure don't brother. Let me suggest Cody Jinks to you. He's red dirt country, but the he writes his own lyrics and brother let me tell ya, its about us.
Mitchell Davis and you are an idiot.... js
I sure wish they did
The lead guitar 🎸 player is a legend all by himself. I always admired his talent.
I saw these guy's in concert with Trixter and Scorpions in Toronto....I dedicate this song to my daughter .she was 18yrs old ..she was hit by a drunk driver..i had to let her go off life support she was brain dead...i find some comfort knowing she saved 7 lives..Fly my beautiful butterfly i will see you again..Till then ..mommy loves you ..misses you..
Blue eyes 80'sgirl Forever keep pray for her she go back to the heavenly Father
Blue eyes 80'sgirl Forever they are great so do you
So, there were Septuplets waiting for the Life Support Machine
I'm so sorry for your loss. My prayers go out to you . And I know how much it hurts. Because I lost my 21 year old son on April .28, 2017. All you can do is always hold to the memories you had together. God bless you.
God bless you my friend. Wow. You were put in a situation you handled with class and dignity. Im sorry for your loss. Your story hit me like a brick.....amazing.
Beautiful song ! I can relate to this song completely. ♥️
This song touches my soul. So deep jn my heart and soul. Thank you. Piano is beautiful. Fly in a new direction A better way. A better day So spread those wings and fly like a Angel
Back in the 80s, I used to drive around lookin' for killer weed, now I drive around lookin' for weed killer. I'm in my 50s now and doin well, healthy with a beautiful family. The 80s were something else, I was there, I lived it, had an amazing time and I'm still here ...
🤘🔥🤘
Absolutely beautiful rest in peace Jack Russell ❤
Awesome song , party on Garth !! Hit like if you get the connection ? RIP Jack , you will be missed , your voice and music will live on forever!!
I live in R.I..was thinking of going to the concert at the STATION that night,couple of friends went and made it out,ERIC AND PETE.,still love these songs,it is what it is.peace
RIP to the one's that didn't get out.
Fate
I remember seeing Great White on MTV and thinking that Jack Russell was comedian Bobcat Goldthwait in a wig. These guys had some great songs and videos. I am happy to have had them as participants in the soundtrack of my life when I was in my teens. Its hard to believe how fast adulthood and senior years have crept upon us,especially when seeing this video that instantly takes us back to the era and time we first heard it. Life is too short. RIP Mr Russell,we all will forever be grateful for what you have given us.
Rock ballads don't get any better than this....raw heartfelt emotion... incredible melody.. awesome keyboards...great riffs...We really miss Jack Russell..get well soon Jack!!
Best eighties ballad by far, and piano break tears my heart in two. Farewell, Jack
Saw these guys twice. One of the best bands I ever saw in the 80's-90's. Singer is absolutely amazing. Didn't get credit they deserved. Check them out covering Zepplin tunes & you will become a believer.
your right they are a great band im from south bay citys and i have meet them in are home town so i hold them varry high.from Redondo
That syntax!
I was a teenager when Led Zeppelin released their first album, and you'll get no argument here from me. Great White was absolutely one of my favorite bands of the 80's.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!
love this song its so real about Hollywood greatwhite hit this one out of the park
such a lovely ballad....remains in my heart forever !
In my opinion, one of the best ballads ever written...this song is so awesome, over 30yrs old but still awesome...the piano lines and solo were incredible...great white rules...
I remember trying to teach myself the piano from this song...so beautiful.
I was trying so hard
Rest in peace Jack. Your music lives forever among the other great rockers that made rock great in the 80s and 90s
so pure, so honest, so genuine.
I love this band there songs touch my heart!
