This is one of the top 3 Michael Weikath songs, and it's never allowed to be played live as he said. Andi Deris have more vocal ranges than Kiske will ever have, but can't sing this.
Here is all mankind so proud of their achievements There is a stone that is warmer than you Look how we stand in the stream of illusions No one says a word Here you laugh and there you cry All that makes you move There's no fear for anything Anything but you Animals dying for our vanity Our world is a beautiful place to be free Drinking the blood of the weak, it's so easy No one hears them cry Here you cheat and there you lie All that makes you gain One day we will face His throne There's nothin' we can say Prosperity, luxury, fast food is rising It's the rainforest that dies Here you laugh and there you cry All that makes you move Here you cheat and there you lie All that makes you gain
So good, UAP commenting on the Helloween song Mankind, I visited here to check the lyric: 'Drinking the blood of the weak, it's so easy No one hears them cry'
In 1990 the industry changed. All groups had troubles at that time and had to change their sound to survive. Actually Roland Grapow saved Helloween. Same happened to many bands : you were pushed to the wall to sound more commercial or just be forgotten.
I though the same. I love this album. It's one of the best heavy metal albums ever. Yes, it has its weaknesses as every albums, but overall this is is a classic.
It's underrated because it came after the two volume epic Keeper of the seven keys. They came with more actual/modern theme in the lyrics. Metal heads back then did not welcome this, because we tend to be very picky and stubborn. This album just had bad timing, but it is freakin' great. I'd date to say it's even less pretentious and fresher than keeper 2. BTW, sorry for my bad english, it's not my first language.
I'm not an english native speaker, so 20+ years ago i didn't knew what the lyrics meant. But now, i think Helloween was trying to convince us to appreciate and love nature with this song ❤ Love it !
This is the one of the most incredible songs evermade by Halloween!! I don't know if u guys know but there's a phrase at ingo's gravestone. I made one tattoo with that message regarding on my grandma. I wished Ingo was still on Halloween! Alive and playing healthy
I dare to say if this album had a Keeper style artwork, this would not be so underrated. People really underestimate the impact of the image an album cover can have in the image of the music in people's heads. This was such a departure from what they had done before, that fans could not relate, despite everyone loving the lady in the picture.. As far as music is concerned, if the whole album had followed the path of Mankind's heaviest parts, the album would have been epic..
metal fans are annoying and closed off sometimes, in 1992 they already had nostalgia for something made at the end of the 80s. I like the Pink Bubbles cover, it's less corny than usual power metal covers. The keeper of the seven Keys covers are iconic too but a band is not obligated to rehash a thing to no end just to please the fans
@David Osterberg Because it was the album they forced to write because they were one step before bankruptcy. They tried to sound more ''pop'' so everybody could buy this album. I find this album one of their best to be honest. Excellent music.
Album menosprezado, porém é um Heavy Metal excelente. Acho engraçado porque os fãs seguidores de revistinhas especializadas, nem ouviam o album e abraçavam as críticas ruins à respeito dele.
Pra mim, essa música já paga o álbum, o qual eu acho muito bom. Nesse período de pandemia de Covid-19, coloco pra tocar esse e os Keeper enquanto to no home office. Kids of The Century e Heavy Metal Hamsters também são ótimas músicas.
@@malcolima3663 concordo. São dois álbuns brilhantes, diversos, fugindo do "mais do mesmo" e apostando na diversidade. Tiro o chapéu por serem álbuns primorosos e pouco se falou na crítica. Inclusive, vi o vídeo desse álbum (aqui no UA-cam), na casa deles - em Hamburgo.
@@dheymemelo603 muito bom e bem expressa sua opinião. Tiro o chapéu para esse disco (que tenho em lp e cd, sendo que o lp comprei em 1991). À época, era muito melhor do que o "No prayer for the dying", do Iron Maiden, e no mesmo nível dos magistrais "Empire" (Queensrÿche) e "Rust in Peace" (Megadeth) ambos antecedentes à este do Helloween. Kiske no ápice da criatividade e percepção de mundo.
Love the nods to Eddie Van Halen in this song. I really didn't care for this album when it came out in 1991, apart from Kids of the Century and The Chance it seemed like a drop off in quality from the Keeper.... records. God, listening to it now, all these years later, it sounds just fantastic. Kiske at the height of his vocal ability before the clear boredom set in on Chameleon.
If these albums were under a different band name than Helloween these 2 later albums after seven keys might have been received differently. Following up after a masterpiece is no easy feat but these next albums shouldn’t have been under the name helloween. Great musicians all of these guys but should have started another band instead of force a 180 direction.
And it is my judgment that mankind set foot on Earth and lived before the Queen of Heaven and the spirit body like the old man who showed the rainbow to the mysterious Noah. !! and a kind of man similar forms humanroiads , thier outfit figure are same to Western man with woman figure with mixed bloods man with woman but temper to those are fixable and steady and neuter gender temper ..
forget gen Z Speed Metal bands, they don't have any harmony like Helloween or Iron Maiden did. They just played 210 Bpm song without any soul whatsoever.... not like this song

Am I the only one who thinks this vocal performance is probably on the top of heavy metal vocalists? Just blows me away.
Same here. I think PBGA is very underrated album and one of my fav! What Kiske is doing here on this song is one of his best performances.
Whole album came out of nowhere. I didnt expect it to be this good and i am a huge helloween fan. He goes all out with his voice on this whole album
Michael kiske, the best

Here you laugh and there you cry

There's no fear for anything
Anything but you
Animals dying for our vanity
Our world is a beautiful place to be free
Drinking the blood of the weak, it's so easy
No one hears them cry

All that makes you gain
One day we will face His throne
There's nothin' we can say

Nice lirik to remind
Best song of the album, with Someone'Crying. Follow The Chance
Markus Grosskopf is one of the top bassists of all time!
Grosskopf is the most wise man in Helloween ever.
@@V3ntilator Really? I hate him. Trying to find a reason not to though..
@@valeriepavlistikova9132 how the fuck do you hate markus? i've never heard anything bad about him at all, that's really surprising honestly

Qué pedazo de introducción!!!!! Impresionante!!!! Mística!!!! Espectacular!!!! Gracias Helloween por tanta buena música!!! Los admiro!!!
Love the drumming

some tune this. pink bubbles has always been a favourite helloween album of mine. terrible album title and cover but the songs are brilliant! :)
kenetrator you’re the first person to say that. But nonetheless Mankind is a great song 👍
@David Osterberg Because it was the album they forced to write because they were one step before bankruptcy.
They tried to sound more ''pop'' so everybody could buy this album.
I find this album one of their best to be honest.
Excellent music.
My favorite Helloween album. The melodies, arrangements, basslines, drums and ridiculous guitar work are out of this world.
My First Album from helloween in my youth,and for me the best…ever🤘🏻
This were Michael Weikath's favorite song, but never got permission to play it live. Kiske, Kai and Deris denied it.
Kiske é foda, melhor front man de todas as eras do Helloween.
This album is amazing, I love it !!
My hero's last album.Thank you Ingo!
Album menosprezado, porém é um Heavy Metal excelente.
Acho engraçado porque os fãs seguidores de revistinhas especializadas, nem ouviam o album e abraçavam as críticas ruins à respeito dele.
Tem gente que criticaram o Chameleo por que não tem tanto peso assim pois eu achei ele excelente.
Pra mim, essa música já paga o álbum, o qual eu acho muito bom. Nesse período de pandemia de Covid-19, coloco pra tocar esse e os Keeper enquanto to no home office.
Kids of The Century e Heavy Metal Hamsters também são ótimas músicas.

The best song of helloween!!

Imposible de olvidar al Dios de la voz Michael Kiske. Best Vocal Range in Metal.
favorite helloween album ?
me
Me too
Yup
Better than Rabbit dont come easy
Обожаю хелловинчиков, особенно оба Кипера и Пинк Бабблз Гоу Эйп и Хамелеон. Божественная музыка. Киске-лучший.
One of the best memories of my youth 😊
Great 🎃🤘🏻
WHAT AN ALBUM

Esa canción salvo el disco...
Weikath!!!!!!!
These song is almost 13 years old...
Happy metal 🤟🤘👊
What? This was released in 1991. I think that was much more than 13 years ago
Cheer~~~human beings considered collectively---the human race.(compelling rhythm)😊
smell rock this album
The best tracks of that album aren’t available on Spotify or Apple Music. A shame.
F**k 'em, just buy a record or CD the good ol' fashioned way and support the bands♥
Todos temazos
1:50 exprima peluches
That opening keyboard sounds just like the one in Praying Mantis' "Only You"
Thanks! I truly learned something interesting!
人間の歌声じゃ無い!神!
that bass 🤟
💜💜💜💜
perfect
Glory to the Mankind
we have to take care of this planet, because it is the only one that has this MUSIC. The Best ¡¡¡¡¡

canción dificilísima de cantar
i love the blink 182 part lol one of the best of Helloween this song, its has to become a hymn
wow! which part sounds like blink 182 to you?
@@newwavenewwave1035 it is the central contrastant part before the last verse, after the solo
@@emanuel_soundtrack oh yes! It was so obvious I missed it lol. This guys definitely knows how to do a lot of various things.
@@newwavenewwave1035 absolutely. Ne now they have this guy that truly looks like a member of Blink 182 lol
@@emanuel_soundtrack haha so true. He must feel like the luckiest dude on earth by the way.

Unlike their previous albums, this album less aggressive and speed

Actually this album is huge better than the original Keepers
Equally good actually
