1M views is a crime against humanity. This should be a billion easily. One of the best songs ever.
This video has parts of the song cut off.
No. I don't like the idea of metal being mainstream. But yeah, this video here should have at least 7 million views.
@@WilderAutumnBlaze "But, There's HEAVY METAL in my MAIN STREAM!..."
so, we have GOLD,
in Our Main Stream!
Let's go 🙂PANNING! 🙂
Testament is such a great F ing band!!! Time has proven that. I'll never understand why they never got as big as Metallica or Megadeth for example. Hindsight is 20/20 and I can definitely say they were way BETTER than Metallica and I'm an old school Metallica fan (don't care for anything after And Justice... even that album took some getting used to.) But I digress... F ing TESTAMENT!!! Those of us who know...KNOW.
They also should have left the full-length song intact. It's a crime they cut off parts of the guitar solos.
20+ years on, and this still may be the best solo ever written.
I skipped my high school graduation to see these guys with Slayer in 1992 ! These guys were amazing. Groups like them and Overkill, Slayer, Creator and Megadeth were bad ass !
I would've done the same!
Kreator* lol
But yes, all those bands are amazing live and in studio. I would have skipped my graduation for a show like that too if I had graduated lol
I think, it's the best decision...
@Pleasure To Kill Diploma had nothing to to do with the ceremony. I went and got that the day prior.
@Pleasure To Kill Back in 1992, yup. Long time ago
From the time when MTV was a music TV and Headbanger's Ball rulled...
@my mom Yeah there was shows like heabangers ball and after school rock. Those were the days...
MTV ruined music
@@davidtarvin2777 blame those stupid reality shows
@@davidtarvin2777 Wasn't MTV, wasn't Reality TV. It Wasn't the industry, it was people.
Everyone is too soft and scared of hurting anyone's feelings that no one has the balls to tell people they are fucking trash. $ is the only thing that talks anymore.
Ngomong opo iki ndok
this is not a song , this is a MASTERPIECE !!!!!!
si lo decís vos pelado..

All 1992 album wonderful
Si, Sea, See
Metal ballads are the best!
Especially Testament's ballads
Yes they are ❤
Solo was shortened but this song deserves alot more views than this. Sadly the majority of people today have no taste in music. :(
+Jeremy H Shortening this song at all, especially the solo, is fucking sacrilege. Whoever edited this should have their nuts bit off by a laplander:)
+Jeremy H Not lost on me Bro. One of the best guitar lead breaks I've ever heard. In my book it ranks with Allen Collins "Free Bird."
+Adam Youdell DAMN...They did shorten it! WTF!
Tobakilacion True enough, but someone who writes their own music, even if it sounds similar to their influences, and plays at least 1 real instrument well deserves to have the title "musician", whereas people who sample music and talk over it don't.
Tobakilacion It's still popular around the world, but not in the U.S. where we worship rappers and plastic pop stars instead of real musicians
the golden age of metal that never come back
I remember being a ten year old kid watching this on MTV headbanger's ball. Watching all the thrash metal bands and death metal bands. Those were the days. Glad to be a metalhead.
We are very lucky to grow with that type of music. We are still listen those songs. Tell me what are the remains all of those who listen pop. NOTHING.
😭😭😭😭😭
They should have a MTV headbangers ball revisted
This album is a masterpiece and should have sold millions!!!
One of my favourite Testament's song. This song is a defenition of "perfect metal ballad" - lirycs, riffs, solo, brilliant vocal performance of Chuck Billy. I can listen to this masterpiece over and over again. Thank you, Testament!
My song 2 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸💪
I dare to say that it's BEAUTIFUL AS FUCK!!!!

Also "The Legacy"
Testament have the best power ballads!
Well, this song means a lot more in 2020.
Timeless

The lyrics by Chuck Billy...are indeed meaning
A lot More in 2020. x.
Me, a mother & female drummer, my son, bass&guitars. NO MUSIC ALLOWED IN BELGIUM till end of the year 2020.
The need for dmt never been more paramount
I'm gonna take you to a place far from here
No one will see us, watch the pain as it disappears
No time for anger, no time for despair
Won't you come with me there's a room for us there
This innocent beauty, my words can't describe
This rebirth to purity brings a sullen tear right to your eyes
No time for anger, no time for despair
Please let me take you 'cause I'm already there
I'm so alone, my head's my home
I'll return to serenity
Rhyme without reason is why children cry
They see through the system that's breeding them just so they die
So please let me take you and I'll show you the truth
Inside my reality we shared in our youth
I'm so alone, my head's my home
And I feel so alone, you know at last
I'll return to serenity
Now that I've taken you to a place far from here
I really must go back, close your eyes and we'll disappear
Won't you come with me, salvation we'll share
Inside of my head now there's a room for us there
I'm so alone, my head's my home
And I feel so alone, you know at last
I'll return to serenity
Great lyrics!
Umm, yep, same lyrics I have, Lol.
Thx!
Gracias
When MTV had actual music playing, you could hear guitars in all of the top 40 hits charts and amazing bands like this existed.
I will never have enough of this song and this solo.
I am Louie Clemente's daughter and my dad was always on tour when I was really little and after I was born. So I saw him mostly on holidays,bdays and for the summer until he retired. But seeing his talent as I've grown up has been great. As an adult now it hits different. Greg is the mastermind to the concepts and most lyrics and so much more. But the band as a whole is the true definition of manifestation. My mom told ne she watched at 18 yrs old Testament band members manifested everything to do with the band. From choosing members,writing music,lyrics and getting signed and touring/Headlining. Never stop manifesting in your life. I've manifested everything great in mine.
I am a son that nobody knows about except for me never never got to spend time with my dad
Your father's music was played endlessly around me growing up from my aunt's and uncles to my mom and dad there music always hit hard and always knew which emotion we were feeling thank you to your dad and the band
That’s great you’ve come to terms with his absence and his talent. He was an awesome drummer and it was an incredible time in music. Hope he is, and you are enjoying life!
Alex's solo...goosebumps guys...goosebumps.
Gotta have Testament in your collection
This song is EPIC. Period.
Eric Lee Damn right
Thanks to Testament for uploading their classic videos.
First time i heard this song and bought Ritual cassette album when i was in junior high school. Now i' m 42 and still love this song! One of the best metal ballad ever!! Testament forever!! Cheers from Jakarta, Indonesia.. :)
Amen to that sir 🤘🤘hail testament
I bought this the first year of high school in 1992. I was a bit late to The Ritual because I was still listening to Souls Of Black and The New Order.
Same here...
Cheers from Bekasi. I am 42 years old too haha.
Same I remember those discount tapes with the cut in them

Guitar is just haunting
It's beautiful
Great vocals
The 3rd ballad they wrote. Another masterpiece!
Life sucks....and this song is just perfect!!
Honestly, this is both one of my favorite songs and solos of all time... just so beautiful
If you’re still listening to this in 2023 (in sheer wonderment at Alex Skolnick’s playing), you are a hero.
Rock on, hero.
can't stop to hear it!
That isn't Alex.
Nah, just a metalhead.
2024 still
One of the most important metal bands of the era.They surely left their mark on my, uh... soul of black ;-)
for me this is one of the best solos ever. I return here from time to time.
Невероятно тоскую по 90-м. Наша юность. Некоторые мои друзья, уже покинули этот мир...
Condolences and best wishes / prayers...
Спасибо брат ✨@@JoshuaHicks-rw2nc
Love Heavy music,( Death , thrash ,Power, 80s , Black metal. Love Metal ) Testament never has done it for me, but Goddamn can they write a ballad!! All their ballads are good , they should release an album of ballads!
If this truly is Testaments channel, I would like you guys to know that this song specifically got me through a REALLY bad time in my life. I'm at a point now that the "bad" has returned into my life and this song has found me again. Thank you Testament.
This song and "The Legacy"... If the band should make more songs like these, it would be amazing.
What i like so much in this song is the solo, my gooood it's so beautiful...
Still to this day one of my favorite Testament albums. Never gets old 👍🎤🎸🤘
they cut one of the best solos in history
true, bro. Alex is awesome!
Yes, Alex is the best.
@@ahmetserkansaz8810 too bad it’s not him in the video.
@@SeanGould is it James Murphy?
@@bjoern_thun_dersteel It was Glen Avelais (I'm not sure I spelled his last name right) who was their touring guitarist at the time.
One of the best ballads ever written. Amazing vocal delivery, powerful riffs, heart churning sadness and that solo is just a masterpiece.
It may be my favorite guitar solo of all time, although Kirk Hammett's in "Fade to Black" is close. Satriani apparently taught Hammett and Skolnik how to write amazing solos in ballads, haha!
every testament ballads is just incredible
I've always wanted to see them play this song live but it's not always in the set. Really cool moody song from these guys. And the solo is amazing.
Still one of my favourite guitar solos ever. shame this was cut
The deepest song they ever done .....keeping it real and they represent it for sure.... YAAAA TESTAMENT
These guys kick ass! Even live they kick ass and they never disappoint!! 🤘🎸🤘🎸
Nothing can describe how much of a *MASTERPIECE* this song is
El vocalista es una maravilla divina y el grupo igual. El mejor team y alineación de todas exelente.
There’s a real looser in Wisconsin, claims to be the drummer in this video.. name is Gene
This song got them on the radio a lot in 1992 here. Not a ballad, a beautiful balance of melodic and heavy. This is how I discovered Testament at 17, tied with a few others as my favorite band. Low may be my favorite song.
so fuckin intense and genius.
Wow. This band is criminally underrated. Just got into them.
31 years ago. How the years have flown by.
I remember being stranded at the Terminator 1993 Halloween; Testament was playing in the basement and I was able to enjoy the show from the front. Chuck Billy shook my hand after they were finished. My most worst night ended up being the most amazing night!!
Oka! TESTAMENT IS LEGEND! ₹Φ
GABRIEL BEHD Better song to ballad
Wow this song is the pure definition of the serenity the vocals is so beautiful.....💎
Damn!! Good times...bring back memories
one of the all time best
❤Oh, my lord! This is a Masterpiece ❤
Such an underrated and misunderstood band ❤
first song I ever heard from this band and I love it!!
this song brings back memories from the 90s
When everything was easy and days were long enough to do many things,
before technology enslavement👍🏻✌🏻
@@simseven4967 Hit the nail on the head!! gone but not forgotten.
I used to love singing this song in the car........and in singing lessons. A great melodic masterpiece. Brilliant live too - supported Black Sabbath on a UK gig - Southhampton.
que balada! que poder
Testament is a comforting band!
Happy to have this cd after my cassette was chewed👍🏻, ritual is a real gemstone
Going through rough times, this song feels so good
I was 16 in 1992 I remember well that year.... there were too many good releases that year... Killerrrrrr album the ritual...the last one with original line up
this song makes me nostalgic..best ever
"Rhyme without reason is why children cry
They see through the system that's breeding them just so they die
So please let me take you and I'll show you the truth
Inside my reality we shared in our youth"
Speechless.....
THE SOLO IN THE INTRO!!!???
I love Testament!
\M/
So hauntingly beautiful
just listen and relax.. and forget your boss
I Love this song.
Damn it! It still rocks like almost 30 years ago. Beautiful and iconic. So underrated! it's lot more deserves than this. Scholnick rules!!!!!!
Huge TESTAMENT fan
This song touched my soul at 13 years old, and now at 44 it is still with me.
The original solo is one of my favorites of all time. So much passion. The structure of it and the way it builds, the structure. Amazing. I think of that solo whenever I play any slow song.
The "big 4" could only dream of writing a song like this
Before I read the comments of this song,
I feel the same way as the comments that I rea that this song deserves more views.

I discovered Testament back in the 80’s and I have loved this song since
TestAmenT This is a masterpiece The Ritual great Album
The best band ever. Period.
My favourite song, it will be with me on the last day on my life.
They should be in the big4 for me.
I still do listen to this song over and over you should come to Memphis again or somewhere close I love your music and many of my friends do too
What a beautiful song. Testament is my favorite band.
Such an underrated band! Testament are amazing song writers when it come to ballads, rock, and pure thrash. Pisses me off! They should be so much huger then they are in America. Love this band!
Still listening to this masterpiece and forever i will🤘🏼♥️
Discovered This Song Couple Of Days Ago. Guitar Solo is some God Level Work 🙌
Essa banda é maravilhosa
Alex Skolnick is fuckin amazing. He slays the solos in this song. Amazing player.
It's him playingon the record, but it doesn't look like he was in the vid. James Murphy joined not long after that, but I don't think that's him either.
I just love Alex and Eric. They are truly the best!!! Chuck's vocals are so powerful too. The whole bank is awesome!
Cecilia Lozano i love Eric. i would so eff him right now if i could....
Don't forget the bass lines
This song is so freaking great.
That is what I call a pagan metal. Lots of american svedes with an indigen. What a beautiful fusion of genes to music.
Awesome band. First them in 97❤
The best song all Times ... Amazing!!!
first time 1992 still now 2023 love u guys
He is not alone. He could be practicing Zen and / or the band preparing to tour the Himalayas, Tibet. GREAT SPIRIT ETERNAL be with them along the way & safe journeys anywhere, Ah'o...
amen
Acabo de escuchar esta canción hace unos días, joder que pieza maestra.
.
La serenidad que me reporta mi padre al que perdí hace 30 años y al que recuerdo todos los días.Nunca te olvidaré y algún día nos reuniremos.Un beso papá
A certified banger
Testament RULES!!!! ROCK ON!!!!
Extraordinarily talented band. Today's music doesn't meet this song's prowess.
So Exciting Song, Truly Amazing Beautiful.
Well Back in 90 it brings in my mind such a beautiful memory...
Return to Serenity Obviously is the Correct Choice (!).
🎸🎼🎸👩🚀👍
Masters of Metal Ballads!
