I find it hilarious how bono said in an interview that u2 is the best rockband in the world. u2 isnt even the best band in ireland that is thin lizzy so how can they be the best rockband in the world
I love that you can always hear every word he sings, every song his voice is as clear as a bell. Such a unique singer and in my humble opinion the greatest rock lyricist of all time.
Very skilled singer imo! From what I've read he learned early on in his teens/adult life about different singning techniques, also very good at cool, rythmic ways with his singning/vocal, not easy to copy even though he's not the typical high pitched rock singer. His sort of "darker voice" combined with his cool singing style is often times very "mesmerizing" imo. He was also into poetry and wrote great rock song lyrics too, besides being super cool, a great song writer, a frontman and bassist (he played guitar aswell ofc, probably could play other instruments aswell).
Lizzy is the best rock band history. Phil is by far the best composer. Not having Thin Lizzy in the RRHOF shows that people don’t know what rock is about. RIP Phil. 🎸🙏🏻 🎸
@@bobjohnson1633"people" as in people like us. He never achieved mainstream notoriety. Closest he came to being a superstar was when he played in Whitesnake. He wasn't a "household name" like other talented guitarists of that time period.
I do really enjoy this era of the band,but Scott's a mess and it shows in his solos. Many Lizzy fans hate John Sykes.No idea why,good enough for Phil...
@@verminfawlty-arat.5650 Scott was really riding the White Horse at the time and couldn't get off. Phil had his own problem, too. Sykes would have done anything to keep things going, but @#$%! heroin broke the band. Phil told Sykes to take the Whitesnake gig, and the rest is history.
You can hear how Phil realized he had written a great and important song. This is no commercial song to please the market. I think he felt he really wanted to give a message. Still he struggles with the words. They dont make 100% sense. But there is a longing for a saviour who can rescue mankind. How many rockers suddenly came up with a song like this? Thumbs up for Phil and Lizzy. Today I met a guy from Eskilstuna Sweden who met him and spent time with Phil.It gave me inspiration. This song lives on.
Phill knew, The Lord Jesus, and proclaimed the Message of The Gospel. And I disagree they make total 100% sense. We are in this Holy War right not , wake up.
There's rock music.. there's metal.. there's folk..there's blues..n many more.....there's great melody's and story's and great musicianship...and then there is the mighty thin lizzy ....they are in there own camp... addictive .... been 30 odd years and I still can't get anough of thin lizzy ..got Phil on my wall..and he's up there with other greats ..and rightly so.. was one cool guy...had a softness and a hard edge and unique style...had his demons ...but bought and still brings alot of love to people through his great music...and what a band ...sykes absolutely killing it..underated drummer Brian is...and Scott don't get a mention anough...guy is solid as they come...for lizzy u need 2 special guitarist ....they had about 8 in there time.. haha..take care all..
The words of this song is more like a pray from Phil, take a look at how Phil puts great meaning into every word, Some times I think that Phil was in pain, in trouble and worried, Thin Lizzy the greatest Rocking band of all time, Me I could never thank Phil and Lizzy for all they did, they meant much to me.
Pure skill pure pace pure passion.ace band all the band members all the guitar 🎸 wizards that ever played on or for Thin Lizzy and the magic magnetic organ and keyboard 🎹 Darren W.from krtajayai jayayai of Kerala state South India salute ji.
Fucking love this!!! The way Phil drives it with that killer bassline is just brilliant!! Might sound like a strange thing to say but I love the close up of Phil's face during the final chorus, his expressions and commitment to the lyrics, fantastic!
Billy Idol and Alice Cooper made me aware of rock music in the 80's but Thin Lizzy was my true awakening and made me a rocker for life. Truly a remarkable band and forever my heroes.
My favourite band of all time, Phil just sings to you, the studio albums couldn't catch their brilliance, live, wow man their the best, RIP Phil Lynot and Gary Moore 💙
I play Thin LIzzy all the time for the younger people I run across. Such a shame that today rock and roll like this is gone from the mainstream you have to go to a bar to see it played right anymore. Thin Lizzy was one of the greatest band's of the 70's and 80's and I'll never tire of their music.
I shame how it all ended. Would've loved to see what Lynnot, Sykes & Gorham could've done together later on. You can hear the heavy touch they have on this album.... amazing!
I saw the farewell tour. Think I was 14. Glasgow Apollo, its long gone now. They had all the ex guitarists come on stage at one point. Amazing gig. Phil battled demons for many years, I think by then he knew he was on borrowed time. Got to give it up but just couldn't. He was an amazing bloke, sadly missed but hopefully looking down. 🙏
Wharton and Sykes added an interesting layer to what was already an outstanding line-up. I was fortunate enough to see the band throughout its history at many, many gigs. Every one etched into my brain and the soundtrack to my life....and still is. Thank you for posting.
Thin Lizzy was gigantic because of the duet guitarists, the song writing and singin of Phil but was one of the best bass and drums duet that ever lived ! Phil and Brian made their career sticked all together.. It was the musical basics of the band that never changed from the begining to the end !
Always one of my favorites growing up. That live record they put out was killer! These dudes were actually the first twin-guitarist I'd ever seen or heard before. They were remarkably good....even before Tipton/Downing (JP) & Murray/Smith (IM) sj~13 #THIN LIZZY
When i was 15 in the 80's, i loved this intro and this music. Many years later, now that I understand the lyrics, I love this whole song even more ...RIP Phil with Gary
MUCH...MUCH.....MUCH THANKS FOR POSTING THIS SONG. It is without a doubt on of the best metal songs ever written and "Thin Lizzy's best songs they ever recorded. God rest Phil Linnot. God bless Thin Lizzy for all the great tunes they gave us.
Terrific performance as usual for the TH. They were an incredible band. Shame that the radios totally ignore this band. It's incredible... their name should be famous at last as the U2! At last..
Exactly..i've never saw TH but i love their Music and Lynotts poetic lyrics.. They are One of the greatest Band ever and it would be very Nice to hear them now..I love The Records in the -70's Jailbreak, Johnny the Fox, Bad Repurtation, Live&Dangerous with Robertson and Gorham duelling. Than Black Rose- it's a real Good return of Gary Moore and The Record are so Good and i love The finish 'Black Rose'. Chinatown -I love ’we Will be strong’ Then Renegade is a lovely album, and I must say that Thunder and Lightning...What a album.. I don't know if it was the drugs or John Sykes, but it's än exilent album.. Thin Lizzy ...i wonder how they would sound now IF they still were playing Philip Lynott-the greatest poetic rocker left us much to early I live in Sweden and i’ve named my great son to Philip and he is Also a genius on guitar, song, drums, bass, piano but he and The band never come out and be famous... It's such a sorrow..
I only say Thin Lizzy once. The 'Thunder and Lightening' tour. It was a fantastic show. I was dead center pushed against the barrier, right in front of Phil all night.
Mr. Bono has been for a long time living in a fantasy world of his own, where words have more weigth than words, and it is so very easy for a man his age who claim to be a freedom fighter, etc etc. Thin Lizzy rides forever; and I personally have no doubt that Phil, Mangan, Davoren Hanna and Mr. Kavanagh are having a hell of a good time in the heaven they justly deserve to be.
Exceptional line up. They all were talented. I still don’t understand why the production wanted at all costs that this group no longer exists. If someone can give me some answers.

I find it hilarious how bono said in an interview that u2 is the best rockband in the world.
u2 isnt even the best band in ireland that is thin lizzy so how can they be the best rockband in the world
I support this view
@@threalismaradona9899 So do I. Concurred.
Quite the opposite, U2 is the worst!
True stuff
Boner is a loudmouth. U2 was great in rhe 80s & 90s.
They lost the grip after POP which IMO was their last great album.
I love that you can always hear every word he sings, every song his voice is as clear as a bell. Such a unique singer and in my humble opinion the greatest rock lyricist of all time.
I agree, super clear vocals. But, Eddie Vedder is the greatest lyricist of all time.
There will never be another. Flawed genius.
Yeah. You might hear him but are you LISTENING?!
@@flipjupiter1 Lol

One of the finest guitar solos in Rock history. Ever.
Still raises the hairs on the back of my neck 40+ years later!
Unmistakable driving bass line of Phil Lynott.He spews the lyrics out like venom. R.I.P. Philo. 35 years on and sadly missed.
amen
Like Venom….fu#kin Aye 🤙
Gone but NEVER forgotten !
🎸 🎸🎸
Lizzy is the best rock band history. Phil is by far the best composer. Not having Thin Lizzy in the RRHOF shows that people don’t know what rock is about. RIP Phil. 🎸🙏🏻 🎸
Mr. John Sykes on lead guitar with his signature Gibson guitar. ❤ Freakin' awesome underrated guitarist. 👍
Is he underrated though? Do people think he's not crazy good?
@@bobjohnson1633"people" as in people like us. He never achieved mainstream notoriety. Closest he came to being a superstar was when he played in Whitesnake. He wasn't a "household name" like other talented guitarists of that time period.
For me this was the best Lizzy line up.
One of the finest rock bands ever.
sanmiguel357 I totally agree.....sykes was tight as f playing live 🤘
I do really enjoy this era of the band,but Scott's a mess and it shows in his solos.

Totally agree
The syncopated guitar riff is all John Sykes.
Phill knew, The Lord Jesus, and proclaimed the Message of The Gospel. And I disagree they make total 100% sense. We are in this Holy War right not , wake up.
Man... You really hear where bands like Priest and Maiden come from. Thin Lizzy was awesome and really highly influential.
Totally this. Live and Dangerous sucked me into my particular love of twin guitar harmonies and particularly Maiden.
One of the GREATEST rock bands ever
Syksie really brought some fresh and addictive energy with him. Love the whole 'Thunder and Lightning' album.
That album suffers from bad eighties- production but it has some great material on it.
This track and Cold sweat... I get cold shills.
Great Words..
@@glenndegeselle9793 oh just shut the hell up its fucking awsome 🤘😎🤘
Class act. Those twin guitars are something else, simply phenomenal.
RIP to Phil Lynott. Gone 34 years ago today
Phil also understood a lot about human spirituality. I appreciate.
We are chosen! We are one! We are frightenened of no one!
The best Irish band for me forever.
NOT "for me", just "forever"
Best band ever!

I was there down the front with my mates. Still one of the best gigs I've ever been to - perfect.
What an awesome song....Long live Thin Lizzy...Crank up the stereo and keep their music alive for generations to come.
Just as Satan tempted Jesus
And Jesus slips and falls
He is a stationed on The Cross now
He is dying to save us all
We are chosen
We are one
Григорий Распутин
We Are Frightened Of Noone
Make no mistake....>>>>>.This is the First Irish Rock Band with world-wide recognition !
U2 reached their awesome-peak with 1991's "Achtung Baby" then it was all downhill from there.
Who is U2???
Hm Them...........Van the man ?
The words of this song is more like a pray from Phil, take a look at how Phil puts great meaning into every word, Some times I think that Phil was in pain, in trouble and worried, Thin Lizzy the greatest Rocking band of all time, Me I could never thank Phil and Lizzy for all they did, they meant much to me.
Spot on. He knew the score. Wonderful song.
@@michaelangelo2335 you right, he did
One of my fav Thin Lizzy songs this and Cold Sweat shows John Sykes awesomeness
My favorite Lizzy lineup with Sykes an Scott
We Are Chosen
We Are One
We Are Frightened Of No One
🎼🔥🎸
Should be the Motto of every Irish Man carriex with them.
Notice the big smile on Phil's face when the song kicks in. R.I.P., we surely have missed you and your gifts.

And the solo !
Billy Idol and Alice Cooper made me aware of rock music in the 80's but Thin Lizzy was my true awakening and made me a rocker for life. Truly a remarkable band and forever my heroes.
Man I keep listening to this song since 9-10 years and will never get enough of 2:07
My favourite band of all time, Phil just sings to you, the studio albums couldn't catch their brilliance, live, wow man their the best, RIP Phil Lynot and Gary Moore 💙
Phil was closer to the edge than we knew here, so sad,so sad...he was my hero and I miss him to this very day.♠️🍀🎸🎶👑RIP PHILO.
THE BEST BAND TO COME OUTA IRELAND!! HANDS DOWN!! MY OPINION! One of my alltime favorite bands!
God bless you
Phil an awesome song
I play Thin LIzzy all the time for the younger people I run across. Such a shame that today rock and roll like this is gone from the mainstream you have to go to a bar to see it played right anymore. Thin Lizzy was one of the greatest band's of the 70's and 80's and I'll never tire of their music.
Listening to them since 8 years olddddd... the men that made me learn bass,,,
+marios makar Awesome keep rocking marios makar
best frontman ever, for a 4 piece. PERIOD
It's between him & Freddie ...
Damn this man had awesome talent what happened to music like this my generation will never experience a concert like this damn.
I'm priviliged to see his grave in Sutton within 2 weeks. It will be heavy but beautiful as well visiting his grave. The greatest musician ever.
Thanx for sharing this video. R.I.P Phill...
One of the bests songs of the whole rock world.Phil Lynott RIP
Absolutely exellent performance of an awesome song
Amazing band. They are kings
best Thin Lizzy song and TAL album ever
Grew up listening to this, loved it and still do RIP Philo from a fellow Dub
Ahhh..I love you Philip💯🤘🏻
We will always remember Phil. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks.
One of their best songs
I shame how it all ended. Would've loved to see what Lynnot, Sykes & Gorham could've done together later on. You can hear the heavy touch they have on this album.... amazing!
And Brian ...
My favorite Lizzy song. Still missing you, P.L..
best band to have ever roamed
His stage presence is awesome. Not to be replicated!
I saw the farewell tour. Think I was 14. Glasgow Apollo, its long gone now. They had all the ex guitarists come on stage at one point. Amazing gig.
Phil battled demons for many years, I think by then he knew he was on borrowed time. Got to give it up but just couldn't. He was an amazing bloke, sadly missed but hopefully looking down. 🙏
Another great Thin Lizzy tune, designed for Live Performance
Brilliant , I was there.
To be truly epic and to never be forgotten .... Is to win either a great victory in war... Or ... Be a suberp songwriter and singer. R.I.P Philip.
Wharton and Sykes added an interesting layer to what was already an outstanding line-up. I was fortunate enough to see the band throughout its history at many, many gigs. Every one etched into my brain and the soundtrack to my life....and still is. Thank you for posting.
Superbe titre ! Légende ! Top !! Immense respect !!!
Philip Lynott avait la classe et la créativité
I will miss Phil forever, he had so much more to give to us. RIP!
Thin Lizzy was gigantic because of the duet guitarists, the song writing and singin of Phil but was one of the best bass and drums duet that ever lived ! Phil and Brian made their career sticked all together.. It was the musical basics of the band that never changed from the begining to the end !
I was just thinking this. To me Brian Downey was at least as much important as the guitarists; he made the hard rock swing and take another whirl.
Brilliant comment ,well worded . Thin Lizzy lifted me out of so many dark days and still do . Such a great band, listen to Phil every day
Still so sad 😥 Phil so gifted and humble 🙏 still in love with you 💔
One of the greatest unknown albums
What a beautiful phrase!!!
this band will stand for all ages RIP phil John your still one of my favorite guitarists such epic tone and riffs
Yes, John is and has always been a total bad ass. From tygers of pan tang to thin Lizzy to blue murder & whitesnake. Pure talent! 🤘🤘
Always one of my favorites growing up. That live record they put out was killer! These dudes were actually the first twin-guitarist I'd ever seen or heard before. They were remarkably good....even before Tipton/Downing (JP) & Murray/Smith (IM) sj~13 #THIN LIZZY

Classic in every sense of the word
Cool song...
My favorite song! THX
One of the Best! SIP Phil!
Terrific performance as usual for the TH. They were an incredible band. Shame that the radios totally ignore this band. It's incredible... their name should be famous at last as the U2! At last..
xritaly I agree. Shameful.
Agree, they make U2 look and sound like the boy scouts they are.

Absolutely brilliant band.
the song that shakes the core.
I only say Thin Lizzy once. The 'Thunder and Lightening' tour. It was a fantastic show. I was dead center pushed against the barrier, right in front of Phil all night.
Good on ya!!!
I saw the farewell tour too. Glasgow Apollo. Good that we're still listening. Best Wishes Man. 👍

The only track from T&L I loved, absolutely magic.
I heard this band at missquomicit Beach in Rhode Island in 1974
Thin Lizzy vivirá por siempre.....
Great jam for all musicians!
Excelente banda de lo mejor, saludos desde México
love this song
The John Sykes was a good era. More hard rock to it.
A classic song!!! Very prophetic!!!
I just adore this band, may the Gods keep save the Lynnott´s spirit!
Great song
Magnifique.
Exceptional line up. They all were talented. I still don’t understand why the production wanted at all costs that this group no longer exists. If someone can give me some answers.
REST IN POWER BIG BROTHER!! :*
That is some really good video quality especially for 1984
1983 bud
Best Rock band.
