This is why Toto has always sounded so Steve... he is the backbone of what is probably the best band in any genre in music history... God bless this man for many more years.
What saves music today is this type of music. Thank you Steve Lukather and all the other musicians and singers, who from the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's continue to make great music. Good music will never go out of style. Thanks Steve.
This how you know it's great. I can hear the melodies, harmonies, chord progressions solo in my head after just one listen. No autotune. No trap, no repeating the same lame figure and a couple of chords over and over with a producer's computer doing most of the work. Now, I will listen over and over again. Thanks, Luke for doing this with Simon, John, David. A gift to us.
@@leeborracho5695 not sure that's true - Luke still has great pipes - all there is is double tracking of the vocals..... nothing to do with autotune !!!!!
Compare this to the shit we call modern music…even Rick beato is embarrassed. Thank you Steve for keeping us inspired and ennobled. Beautiful and hopeful song..I lost my brother last year to the scourge of mental illness and drugs. I will see you again brother.
"Millennial" here. Listening to the new album and this track did my soul good! I always said it and I'll say it again - Luke is the beating heart of Toto that's always kept it alive. He's an amazing, diligent, down-to-earth, beautiful human who was BORN to play. Thank you, Steve, for blessing generations with your God-given gifts of impeccable musicianship. ❤
This song epitomises what great musicianship is all about and why I have always loved Toto. I take my hat off to Steve Lukather, what a great talent . Music that will never die.
Me too! Every once in a blue moon someone makes a good tune and I’ll listen. I always end up going back to music from the late 70s through the late 90s. Some in the early 2000s but you don’t get the same musicianship. With Toto, you can get a little of most genres within their catalog. And damn can they play.
Hard to compare Luke to any other guitarist... he is literally the Jeff Pocaro of his instrument... his pocket, phrasing, musicality has it's own category. Love this dude and the musical magic that he has gifted to me.
❤Happy Anniversary to Burning Bridges,released June 16 th 2023❤LUKE AND TOTO FOREVER❤❤❤❤ONE OF THE BEST MUSICIAN ON EARTH❤❤THE MASTER OF L.A STUDIOS,THE MAN WHO CAN PLAY EVERYTHING,SO COOL AND TALENTED ❤
Hadn't dug into my SL CD's in awhile. Got here by way of binge watching Gino Vanneli. So happy I did. This song reminds me of a stranger I met. We had an instant connection but I never saw him again. It also reminds me of my loved ones gone including my beloved maltipoo. ❤
Love me some Lukather, greatest guitarist, ever born.....my Daddy,and my sons are guitarists, RIP Daddy, had him his Les Paul....played the piano, honky-tonk style, and my second born plays a mean banjo, upright bass, and teaching himself the violin, firstborn plays drums, congas, and we all sing.....what more?? music is blood....
The audience should always be the judge and the jury in music. No need for real judges. But for some idiotic legal issues there’s never gonna be a new Toto album, but this is as close as it can get when the guys are still playing together like this. 🎤🎸
I still haven't wrapped my mind around this legal stuff as to why the Guys should be forbidden to record new Toto music. I know Susan sued them to get more royalties but how can this prevent them from releasing new albums? I mean they did this the past 25+ years after Jeff...
Thank U. Thank. Thank.U.❤❤ AAMAZING. MUSICIAN/S. JUST AMAZING. . GO IN MY HEART WITH WARMTH AND HAPPINESS.❤🦋🤣🌈🌞🙏 GOD. BLESS U❤;gofl❤ow with the wind/spirit❤🙏
well..its back to the greatest era for AOR melodic..tuneful..well produced music..the early to middish 80s with this track...... and thats the way we like it.... always like Joe on BVs.......it rounds up that TOTO sound...How I wish Fergie F could be around to do the same..... hopefully we WILL meet friends and family again.............
Does this guy even know how good he is? I know he doesn't think of himself as a legend, but to me and thousands (maybe millions) he is. Thanks for another great track.
These lyrics are really moving me... "The saddest words ever heard: What might have been". So beautiful... Compliments to Luke, he keeps on giving and creating, even after all these years. A true musician inside and out.
Well... heck THIS track IS Toto.Sounds like it? All the players?? ... isnt it? and GREAT to hear Simon Philips playing with them again. Lifts the spirits
I’ll absolutely pre-order this album, on the strength of this song alone. I’ve been a lifelong fan, and. this single(and soon to be released album) IS pretty much “TOTO”, for all intents and purposes.
Steve lukather I am so great full to you and Toto for providing me with my favorite music since 1978. You are in my eyes the number one baddest dude on the guitar. I don’t know how but you’ve done it again in 2023, loving this tune and with the guys from Toto jamming with you makes it even more special. Continued success mr. Lukather! If your ever back in Phoenix I’ll be there for my 6th Toto concert👍
Why did I not know this album was released?? Luke. Still love that voice. ❤😊 that voice has been ever present in the soundtrack of my life. And of course a Porcaro and Paich are co-writers. Thanks, guys. - M.A. Guerin
Luke...evergreen and volcanic as ever.....the best guitarist and musician ever. I hate ranking or rating musicians, but here i make my exception...Luke is the best, complete musician, best guitar, vocals slicing thru your hearts..what else can i say?
Well, not everything. Some of the songs on the album are clearly more Lukather solo style than Toto. 50/50, that's why it's definitely a Bridge between Luke & Toto.
Of all the things in this world I'm thankful for,discovering Luke,Toto,and how their music has brought me joy and healed my pain is up there near the top. Tired of the disrespect they received over the years. With all the hit songs they made themselves and also played in,it's time people ROCK HOF too bad if the haters don't like it,this is my favorite guitarist and band of all time.People don't even know the amazing music they put out in the 90s and 2000's which I would put up against any band of the 80s era Toto is a cultural force to be reckoned with!b
What else can anyone say about the master Steve Lukather. Killer melody, chord changes, lyrics, vocals, and monster guitar playing. Yes Steve, younger musicians can still learn " a ton of shit" from the you. You have inspired so many guitar players throughout the years. Thank you Steve for your gift of music. God bless.
![Ringo Starr and Steve Lukather (Toto) - Africa / Rosanna / Hold The Line [live 2019]](/img/1.gif)
the best guitarist in the world!! With Simon Phillips back it really seems to be a Toto song!!
With EVH
Toto again!!!
This is why Toto has always sounded so Steve... he is the backbone of what is probably the best band in any genre in music history... God bless this man for many more years.
Not so sure about that. But he is great and a great person. Best band of any genre? Whoa. Easy does it!
@@kaisersoze9880aguably.
Don’t forget Paich!
@@deetgeluid I hear ya! Paich is a beast.

You also should try listen to his son band the Effect!
This guy back in the day was the No1 session guitar player that everyone wanted on there album

Agreed, But the vocals are clearly tuned. Its part of the deal these days.

This is real music!!!! What a HUGE BREATH OF FRESH AIR!!!! WONDERFUL TALENT!!!! LOVE YA LUKE!!!!
@@Political.Commentary There is Melodyne all over this bud. Clean your ears lol
Fantastic music voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Great Steve Great ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Federica from Verona Italy

Finally some new great music in all this shit!!!!!
I Lost My 24 year old Grandson last year. I Will find Him & I will see Him Again… thanx Steve L.
So sad😢
God bless your grandson.
From Japan.
Compare this to the shit we call modern music…even Rick beato is embarrassed. Thank you Steve for keeping us inspired and ennobled. Beautiful and hopeful song..I lost my brother last year to the scourge of mental illness and drugs. I will see you again brother.
Well this was a surprise. Amazing tune and it's 100% like having Toto back :)
❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
Its all toto In The credits.
@@whicked_stone7566 All Toto, all the time.
Really.good.stuff.
Except for having to pay the “ widow” a cut!!!
Love this, feels like "old" Toto, best band ever and ever.
Who needs Toto if you have Lukather, Williams , Paich & Philips in the studio room :-)
"Millennial" here. Listening to the new album and this track did my soul good! I always said it and I'll say it again - Luke is the beating heart of Toto that's always kept it alive. He's an amazing, diligent, down-to-earth, beautiful human who was BORN to play. Thank you, Steve, for blessing generations with your God-given gifts of impeccable musicianship. ❤
Steve is the Keanu Reeves of music...very humble 🎉
Toto maniacs rejoice 🎸
the song is monster and phénonmnal
Steve Lukather True Musician. Real Music.
Luke, the most "complete" guitarist in rock history! No further words needed.
Touché'!!!
Eddie van Halen said, that Luke is the best guitarist in the world. I would agree.
So very right 👍🎸
@@ralfwegmann3069 That's more than a compliment and a humble statement from Eddie. Being better than him is hard to fathom.
YES!!! you did find the RIGHT words.
It seems a toto song, and i like it
80年代の懐かしい感じがしますね
New Extreme album.... New Luke...... shit is good.
Finalmente si sente ancora rock and roll nel 2023. Grazie Steve 👏👏👏
This song epitomises what great musicianship is all about and why I have always loved Toto. I take my hat off to Steve Lukather, what a great talent . Music that will never die.
I've been listening to more and more old Toto......am speechless
Glad someone else is too. I've been diving in and finding so many gems.
I am old school, I bought TOTO all in box set last week!
Me too! Every once in a blue moon someone makes a good tune and I’ll listen. I always end up going back to music from the late 70s through the late 90s. Some in the early 2000s but you don’t get the same musicianship. With Toto, you can get a little of most genres within their catalog. And damn can they play.
Jeff would be beside himself with pride. Well done, Luke!
best song on the cd
Hey Luke Daddy! Great single! I hope all is well. 😎
Luke dropped a BOMB! I hope he can feel all the love and respect we all have for him! #bestguitaristever
Outstanding track , great to hear Luke and Simon again.
That toms hitting harddddddddddddddddd, love that sound in Simon!
Hard to compare Luke to any other guitarist... he is literally the Jeff Pocaro of his instrument... his pocket, phrasing, musicality has it's own category. Love this dude and the musical magic that he has gifted to me.
The hope of rock
Has the sound and feel of Toto. Because the heart and soul of Toto is behind it. Great song Steve Lukather, can't wait for the album.
Now, THIS is music!
Didn't know Luke was working on anything and then this video popped up on my recommendations. Sounds like '80s Toto. And that's a good thing!
When I see you again ON REPEAT!!!
❤Happy Anniversary to Burning Bridges,released June 16 th 2023❤LUKE AND TOTO FOREVER❤❤❤❤ONE OF THE BEST MUSICIAN ON EARTH❤❤THE MASTER OF L.A STUDIOS,THE MAN WHO CAN PLAY EVERYTHING,SO COOL AND TALENTED ❤
It's Toto without the name. Awesome track just amazing! Glad to see all the guys involved!
Fantastic. The most sane thing in today's world.
the men is hitting the spot with his music great artwork waiting for the cd !
We are together Steve! Can´t wait for the whole New Album!
yes😍
Luke playing his ass off as usual.
Hadn't dug into my SL CD's in awhile. Got here by way of binge watching Gino Vanneli. So happy I did. This song reminds me of a stranger I met. We had an instant connection but I never saw him again. It also reminds me of my loved ones gone including my beloved maltipoo. ❤
Steve Lukather, model for our guitarist, not only for his skills, guitar, composer, but simply a good guy... Great tune!
Feel like flashback in 80's TOTO era
Great tune. He chose the right drummer for this, no doubt.
Love me some Lukather, greatest guitarist, ever born.....my Daddy,and my sons are guitarists, RIP Daddy, had him his Les Paul....played the piano, honky-tonk style, and my second born plays a mean banjo, upright bass, and teaching himself the violin, firstborn plays drums, congas, and we all sing.....what more?? music is blood....
Fantastic song! This is my favouirite 2023 song, perfect!
Steve you done it again man thank you
This track... brings back all the original TOTO vibes and proves ,without question, who the driving force behind TOTO truly was. 😎👍🏾
All members of this truly gifted band were behind Toto driving force!!
The audience should always be the judge and the jury in music. No need for real judges. But for some idiotic legal issues there’s never gonna be a new Toto album, but this is as close as it can get when the guys are still playing together like this. 🎤🎸

Beatles. Toto. vanHalen , ELO all in one -- fucking amazing !! Luke is pure genius !!!
As Steve played bass & all rhythm & lead guitars on this that’s it I’m playing bass on this banger w Steve when he eventually tours 🤣
Luke is awesome! Eagerly awaiting the sequel to The Gospel According To Luke. Rock on Luke!!
I love you so much Luke, hold the line ❤❤❤i send you prayers to go tough what you are in, excuse my english, i am a french canadian ❤❤❤❤
And here is.......Simon again....!!!!
I can hear it in a minute Luke.....bring him back to the TOTO family!!!
Agree. They should assemble the old gang for the 45th Anniversary. Simon, Steve P, Greg Ph, Nathan East & maybe Tony Spinner + Guests.
Never predictable, always brilliant, talent and suffering in every one of Steve's songs...
Damn. Good. Song. 👌
All the musicians are from Toto! Fantastic! (And what a tune it is.) -- Toto fan since 1978
Does this guy even know how good he is? I know he doesn't think of himself as a legend, but to me and thousands (maybe millions) he is. Thanks for another great track.
Trust me, he does!😉
im pretty sure he knows how good he is - he just likes to play it down
These lyrics are really moving me... "The saddest words ever heard: What might have been". So beautiful... Compliments to Luke, he keeps on giving and creating, even after all these years. A true musician inside and out.
秒で記憶に残る歌詞と音。ふとした時に、気持ちよく口ずさめる曲を作れるの、さすがですわ。
Great musician, The Best guitar player, Nice human being!
Works for me!
Lukather is one of THE greats that’s for sure I wonder if this is another tribute song for Jeff Porcaro .Or maybe Mike Porcaro man I miss Toto
Yes.
This is Toto. Except you did not just read that. ;)
Well... heck THIS track IS Toto.Sounds like it? All the players?? ... isnt it? and GREAT to hear Simon Philips playing with them again. Lifts the spirits
Another catchy Toto tune! ;)
I’ll absolutely pre-order this album, on the strength of this song alone.
I’ve been a lifelong fan, and. this single(and soon to be released album) IS pretty much “TOTO”, for all intents and purposes.
When you have listen to these guys for so long you know whoes voice is doing what in the harmonies
Please please play this live soon somewhere? Such a great album! You're Far From Over, Mr. LUKATHER!
Steve lukather
I am so great full to you and Toto for providing me with my favorite music since 1978. You are in my eyes the number one baddest dude on the guitar. I don’t know how but you’ve done it again in 2023, loving this tune and with the guys from Toto jamming with you makes it even more special.

If your ever back in Phoenix I’ll be there for my 6th Toto concert👍
Why did I not know this album was released?? Luke. Still love that voice. ❤😊 that voice has been ever present in the soundtrack of my life. And of course a Porcaro and Paich are co-writers. Thanks, guys. - M.A. Guerin
If modern Pop/rock music weren’t such a cesspool, this would be a Number 1 hit.
Simon Phillips! Glad to see Steven and Simon and Co.
one the best guitarman
Your wonderful talent never withers forever
Luke...evergreen and volcanic as ever.....the best guitarist and musician ever. I hate ranking or rating musicians, but here i make my exception...Luke is the best, complete musician, best guitar, vocals slicing thru your hearts..what else can i say?
Trademark Luke and Paich harmony and arrangement, plus from that opening drum lick you knew it was Simon. Banging tune.
This brings me to tears... for me one of the greatest musician on earth.
Edit: What a great Track. Just love it.
Luke is a true professional and just an amazing musician .
We've added this to our daily rotation!
Ohhhhh Yessss...!
I feel like driving fast! Great song. Steve and Simon, perfect team!
Whatever Luke will compose and sing it will sound like a TOTO. This is not complain of course. I love his & TOTO music ! Greetings from Poland!
Well, not everything. Some of the songs on the album are clearly more Lukather solo style than Toto. 50/50, that's why it's definitely a Bridge between Luke & Toto.
Awww he’s amazing and 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤

Love you, my Dear Luke !!!
You're my Rocker Uncle !!!
🤘💀🤘

.
Got out of my all-too-easy-to-fall-back-on comfort zone & listened to this album. Well done!
Come on Luke! You are absolutely the best there is.
NO - He’s even BETTER than that even !!!😁
Excellent - very 80's vibe to it....that Don Henley touch
Love the guitar solo.....great tone, great phrasing, short and sweet.....the man is a master!!!
Great Luke Guitar Solo 🎸 that's how it's supposed to be
