This song is the absolute pinnacle of A7x. Sure Afterlife, Nightmare, Hail to the King, and Bat Country will get all the play time but this right here is magic.
I like Darkness surrounding, Radient eclipse, Blinded in chains, Chapter four, Gunslinger, And god hates us. Way more then that the hail to the gay ass king. I hate that song.
This is without a doubt the best avenged sevenfold song ever, not because it's 11 minutes long, but because it has soul, probably the best guitar work they have done, best drum work, best lyrics, best bass line, best vocals, and the best structure, it's like every thing avenged sevenfold has ever been up to that point in that one song, the breakdown could easily go on sounding the seventh trumpet or waking the fallen, the solo's have a city of evil feel to it, the piano and orchestra backing's could easily come off the self titled album too, but that is just my opinion, but they need to play this song more often, maybe as the last song, yeah unholy confessions is a great song to finish with, but this one kinda beats it
This is my favorite song because it is so beautiful and it feels like it has 3 completely different parts to it. It never gets old or boring to listen to.
0:00 - 4:44 ternary 4:44 - 6:07 binary 6:07 - 9:23 ternary 9:23 - 10:44 binary 10:44 - 10:57 ternary i just love how A7X can change time signature and still making it feel so comfortable to hear
+enestepeful well for example during the first part you can count along to 3 (or 6) over and over again, and suddenly at 4:44 you can't anymore cause it doesn't fit, but you can now count to 4 over and over again. That is basically ternary and binary.
Whenever someone says a7x is a shitty generic band, I laugh and send them a link to this. How anyone can come to a conclusion like that is beyond me....
Ehh they have only like 2 to 3 songs that are complex. The rest is mainly popular friendly. I bet you havent listened to one of he bands that are pure complexity. But, A7X isnt the case. I still like their complex work tho. If you have the time go research on proggressive bands and you'll why people become all elitist and shit.
bgainesDM1 I know that haha im just trying to figure out what he's implying. Like is he implying a7x and OndeD are the same or that they should listen to 1D to know what real shit is? Im just so confused lol
Riddle me this, do you rock out to rap?...no...no you do not. Don't ever confuse the two genre's again, unless you want to be trolled...not being a dick, just saying.
Dear God, forgive me for my Unholy Confesssions, Crimson Day is upon us, Planets will collide, I'm not ready to Die but I'll Carry On. Fiction in my mind as the Nightmare goes on. Feeling Betrayed as the Forgotten Faces consume me, Remenissions are all I have. I grasp a Second Heartbeat as the Demons attempt to take over me and the Girl I Know. I'm at the Crossroads of the Afterlife and Eternal Rest. It's Almost Easy to forget I've Lost it All, but at 4 a.m. Tonight the World Dies. Save me Shepherd of Fire but I know you are Shattered by Broken Dreams so I'll Turn the other Way from the Heretic and Seize the Day while the Strength of the World is still with me. I feel like I'm Blinded in Chains as the Tension rolls over me and unfortunately St. James I Won't See You Tonight for there is a Radiant Eclipse And All Things Will End. The Fight commences as the Dancing Dead are Buried Alive and now So Far Away. They will be Coming Home, not Lost but understanding that they were Doing their Time and experiencing a Little Piece of Heaven. Sidewinder swipes til the Wicked End and currently i'm M.I.A., feeling like a Victim. Acid Rain begins to pour down while im standing on the Danger Line so of course This Means War as I Scream cuz there is a Gunslinger on the Streets in front of me. Darkness Surrounding as he shouts Hail to the King! Almost like a Clairvoyant Disease it's an Epic of Time Wasted. Seeing the light as the Unbound Wild Ride Continues. Absolutely Trashed and Scattered.
If you ask me, this is their best song. It incorporates a little bit from all of their previous albums and puts it into this one: The guitar from City of Evil and their self-title, the drums from earlier works like Waking the Fallen, and Matt's voice from this album. It really puts together everything that the band had done up to this point. Yeah, we have others like The Stage, Hail to the King, and the rest, but to me, THIS is their greatest work.
Easily their best song in my opinion and I've heard them all. This is a masterpiece and it goes to show that what's bad for the heart makes good art. RIP Jimmy
"He may be out of his mind But someday you will find That sanity's left us all blind And dragged us all behind A moment seen through those eyes Crystal blue disguise They say that all beauty must die I say it just moves on. If you only opened your mind Then someday you will find Insanity's left us behind And walked right through the door I can see the pictures clear as yesterday Pictures all my own I can hear the voices begging you to stay But know you're not alone." Still best part in any A7X song to date, both musically and lyrically. Period. The end. No discussion.
Everybody has their own tastes in music some lyrics much more powerful and true than others. I believe both Buried Alive and Save Me are perfect in their own little way. The reason I prefer Save Me over Buried Alive is because there are truly three parts to the song; the beginning, the small start to something big; the middle, the anger and the power within the music and the voice alike, and the end, the sadness and the acceptance within the voice especially during the “Tonight we all die young” part of the song. Songs have truly deep meanings to some people, and Save Me caught me and, well... saved me.
Yes.In my opinion,this song shows us a young people who has depression and keeps suffering from it while he is still living as a normal people.Especially the lyrics,symbolizing some people being isolated in real life
I said the same thing But you know that version isnt the original neither is this the original was with eminem and A7X and Eminem wernt really best freinds so they erased the track
Completely agree! This sounds almost like a Dream Theater-kinda tribute. I wish people had recognized that more. Not because of 11 mins, but the composition man and all the changing tempos, and most of all, Portnoy's drumming!
It does not matter how much time passes this is by far the best song of ALL TIME. Everything about this song is pure genius and perfection. ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!
Nope. The old A7x is not gone at all, just because they sound newer, and use their idols as their template, does not mean they are gone. The new A7x has just arrived.
ReveralUS well they lost their old style for sure, they used to put violins and epic stuff in their music but now they're trying to be metal... which really sucks :( RIP the Rev
This and Exist are the best A7X songs in my opinion. They’re not just songs, they’re... masterpieces, so creative and full of emotion. Honestly Avenged Sevenfold is one of the most interesting bands out there
Put this into 'bass treble booster' and put the setting to 'death' then went into speaker settings and put it onto auditorium. Sounds like a fucking war charge with borderland bandits/mad max guys
Mr.Goodwill McGhee i'll try, but it was a free trial and it ran out. When I get back from work if I remember to i'll uninstall and see if I can get another 30 days trial. I'll do it with more songs.
I used to listen to this back when I had a lot of family issues. (still kinda am but oh well.) you know a song is good when it almost brings down a tear from your eyes.
Well, not much to tell now. I've told a lot and the more I say it the more I feel people think its just first world problems. It was things like divorce and leaving the entirety of where I grew up and all my friends, which essentially tore me in two. Along with moving house to house because most of my family didn't care if I was around. Eh..okay maybe there's a lot more than I let on, but things have been mostly going better within the past month or two. My stepdad bought me this album back when it came out originally, and its bittersweet for me.
It seems like a jynx when people play with life and sometimes don't realize but at the same time don't care if they pass, like me, but it opened my eyes after the second time waking up in the hospital, now I say I'm going to live foREVer!!!
Especially the second half of that time, when you just get hit full force with everything at once, in an absolutely amazing manner. Definitely my favorite part of the song, without a doubt.
TheTrainStation Also, don't forget that the piano in Fiction was one of The Rev's recordings for the album. Most of the song of Fiction was already written out by him.
+Brandon WhyShouldYouCare Same band, other song. Six degrees of inner turbulence from Dream Theater. You can also count all the Metropolis parts as one song, and then it will be about 1,5 hours. Or the whole Astonishing, 2 hours. You can also count all the parts of 12 step suite as one song, since all of them have parts of each others, and the subject of the songs is the same. It would be about 1 hour
Masterpiece. Avenged Sevenfold might be my favorite band after this, I NEVER thought I would say that. The talent it took to write and assemble this is mind boggling. Gates is on another level all together.
A true masterpiece, a work of lyrical and instrumental art that cannot be described by mere words... Insanity's left us behind! It's simply beautiful... Brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it...
I've been listening to these guys since 2002 and its just their the band thats been with my life forever. And Jimmy Sullivan will forever be with them to me. R.I.P.
FreeFireGamer I personally have never understood all the love for City Of Evil, it's my least favorite album by them because it has such an overall weird sound I think. A mix of heavy metal and hard rock and goes back and forth, but I'm not saying it's bad so many people seem to like that so much more then they're other stuff. I just like the more regular heavy metal sound of Nightmare, Hail To The King and the Metalcore sound of Waking the Fallen and Sounding the Seventh Trumpet. But that's just my opinion and you have yours.
I started loving A7X and went out of them. I thought j was bored of their music but then I realised I just didn't like the stuff without the Rev in. I guess that makes me a fan again and this is the first time listening to them for months. I urge you all to stop listening to your favourite band until say Christmas then once you start again, you appriciate them a lot more!
Edthebarrel yeh thats an awesome song, my favourite 5 are i wont see you tonight, mia, betrayed, save me ad a little piece of heaven, although all of them are masterpieces
You should try listening to their whole album, my personal pick is seize the day, gunslinger, the wicked end, unbound (the wild ride), demons, afterlife, almost easy, a little piece of heaven, bat country, and so many more... Literally all their songs have good tones
this whole song is amazing but the lyrics from 6:28 and on are actually fuckin beautiful. ive never taken the time to sit and look at lyrics but its insane
Every album has that long masterpiece City of evil had MIA and strength of the world Self titled had dear god and a little piece of heaven Nightmare had save me The stage had the exist
When I'm in a dark place, I like to listen to this and remember that I'm not the only one out there, and many have it much worse. When I'm restless, I like to let the sweet melody bring me to sleep. And when I'm happy, I like to sing along and headbang where appropriate. A true work of art, reminds me of the works of Iron Maiden!
4 years since I heard this song and I still love it. The melodies, the riffs, the solos, the bass, the vocals, the drums, the lyrics. Everything is perfect in this song. This song made me love Mike Portnoy's drumming and I will foREVer appreciate this song in particular. We miss you Rev! Thank God you co-wrote this masterpiece before you left this world.
67 years old and I love this band...There is real talent here if others would take the time to listen...Not all bands nowadays are sh.. this is proper lyrics and real music, just because it's not beethovan or bach does'nt mean its not brilliant ..
Yeah I'm 14 and this is my favourite band. I love how anyone, of any age or gender or anything can come together and enjoy the same music, it's really nice.♥️😊
this will be getting played at my funeral, it will always be my favourite avenged song, it's an emotional roller-coaster of pure emotion and fantastic sound
"Ever since the day you left my fate's been set unknown. How many years to walk this path alone? So much to see tonight so why'd you close your eyes? Why can't i shut mine?" "Tonight we all die young" "save me, I'm trapped in a vile world where the endings are all the same as every other. We're only here to die". Aw man that's deep right there. Very Emotional song.
I always liked that song but the music is so beautiful I never took the time to listen to the lyrics other than the chorus. Now I find it even more beautiful and right now relatable, rediscovered the song a few weeks back. Grateful
man, i get to listen to a7x and laugh as everyone gets mad at others' opinions. its like two shows in one, haha. i kid, but seriously guys, its a music lyric video, not a complaint office. lets all just enjoy the music. also, i know it doesn't matter much, but i too am a guitarist. these guys are my idol, but there always will be 'better bands', because no one is perfect. that is just is the way it is. now lets all just be at peace and enjoy a song or two, am i right?
I recognized A7X as the best when I started listening to metal and rock in 2005. Good luck all other bands. You're all awesome but A7X is simply the best.
Jimmy was easily the best drummer in his genre and a talent that was unmatched amongst his peers..i miss him.Wherever he went when he left us..he's kicking ass. R.I.P Jimmy"the rev"Sullivan
I don't know why but I really LOVE Mike Portnoy's druming in this one, I enjoy this more than his playing in Dream Theater, and I'm a huge DT fan. Maybe it's because the sound of this drumkit, or maybe it's solid AF.
“The Rev "Seized the Day" to conquer the "City of Evil" in "Bat Country", and forced the "Beast and the Harlot" to "Scream" their "Unholy Confessions". He left them "Trashed and Scattered" and "Blinded In Chains" with the "Strength of the World". He found it "Almost Easy" and became a "Sidewinder" and slithered to "A Little Piece of Heaven" in his "Afterlife", now he is "M.I.A." and his "Nightmare" has come to pass.RIP Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, you're gone but NEVER forgotten!” ― Avenged Sevenfold we all miss the rev. ;-;
Anthony Conwell Yea it was Rev and also when ''Skull''. There is some people that think that was johnny but it was Rev but actuallly the one who said ''Skull'' like was johnny
Mohamed Frahat bts is a really good group you don’t need to bash them because they have more views. I admit I’d also like to see more views on A7x songs but most people don’t like this type of music and it saddens me. But you don’t need to go around comparing artists especially because they aren’t even close to the same genre of music.
how can anyone dislike this video? i mean ffs its a lyric video, it has lyrics and a song behind it, what more do you want ? awesome song too, one of their best
I love these long Avenged Sevenfold songs, so much meaning and great talent. This song reminds me of MIA very much in terms of length and the meaning behind it.
In my opinion, this is a very demonic or dramatic song. (For example: We only (only) wake up when we sleep, They all know, Tonight we all die young etc.) It's really hard for me to explain how this song makes me really feel or think. But this song is GREAT! :)
I just love the drums in this track. They sound so powerful, yet not overbearing. Totally precise, and kinda snappy sounding. Perfectly the way I love it ♥
Kernfrps1720 Yes he was amazing but unfortuntely this wasn't him in this song. This is from the album Nightmare. The replacement is good but aint the same without good ol' Jimmy Sullivan.
Greatest song of the album. I get shivers and feels so deep when listening to this, because imo this song is perfect, from the guitar, drum, vocals, and the lyrics too. Not a second wasted.
This song is the absolute pinnacle of A7x. Sure Afterlife, Nightmare, Hail to the King, and Bat Country will get all the play time but this right here is magic.
And A little Piece of Heaven?
And Lips of Deceit?
I like Darkness surrounding, Radient eclipse, Blinded in chains, Chapter four, Gunslinger, And god hates us. Way more then that the hail to the gay ass king. I hate that song.
I second "A little piece of heaven"
Brompton cocktail?
This is without a doubt the best avenged sevenfold song ever, not because it's 11 minutes long, but because it has soul, probably the best guitar work they have done, best drum work, best lyrics, best bass line, best vocals, and the best structure, it's like every thing avenged sevenfold has ever been up to that point in that one song, the breakdown could easily go on sounding the seventh trumpet or waking the fallen, the solo's have a city of evil feel to it, the piano and orchestra backing's could easily come off the self titled album too, but that is just my opinion, but they need to play this song more often, maybe as the last song, yeah unholy confessions is a great song to finish with, but this one kinda beats it
Meeh... The best one is So Far Away :D
Ivan ulises Cisneros Mendoza To Me All Song From A7X is the best
RevoltTrain Part of the reason its my favorite is that it is 11 minutes long :P
I agree with you so hard
RevoltTrain Well, it gets Portnoy's touch. There is a little DT I heard in this song.
This is my favorite song because it is so beautiful and it feels like it has 3 completely different parts to it. It never gets old or boring to listen to.
Probably one of the most creative songs ever made.
Amen to that
This song reminds me a lot of Dream Theater by the composition alone. If you like this, check out some DT
Amen
well the drummer was mike potnoy haha so funny coincidence
I wish i could hear this song for the first time again.
Khaled Al-Jabri when i first listened this song i feel magic
Khaled Al-Jabri dont listen to it for 3 years forget the song make a new life change your identity then listen to the song and repeat
This song is just so good...
smoke a bowl and it'll feel like the first time you hit the replay button.

Alexis Coquard Thank you so much.
+Alexis Coquard Do you mean time signatues?
Blazin Blitzer yes
I only read comments in the least known songs of ax7, because here is where i can find the true fans of the greatest band on earth
Thank God I'm not the only one!
just check the views... this song is well known to the real fans, just like all of a7x songs. but the general public never heard this...
Where there new shit is horrible.
haha that's absolutely right ! :D
(still mcr and System of a down are not that far away from being as good as A7X) :p
damn right
Whenever someone says a7x is a shitty generic band, I laugh and send them a link to this.
How anyone can come to a conclusion like that is beyond me....
Whenever someone tells me A7X is a shitty generic band, I send them a link to one direction and ask them again
Ehh they have only like 2 to 3 songs that are complex. The rest is mainly popular friendly. I bet you havent listened to one of he bands that are pure complexity. But, A7X isnt the case. I still like their complex work tho. If you have the time go research on proggressive bands and you'll why people become all elitist and shit.
Doober Jaz
Ive read your comment everytime I got a notification here and I still dont understand what you're implying lol.
What do you mean?
GetScaredGaming One direction is a shitty band. lol
bgainesDM1
I know that haha im just trying to figure out what he's implying. Like is he implying a7x and OndeD are the same or that they should listen to 1D to know what real shit is?
Im just so confused lol

(In my opinion)
Love everything about this song. The lyrics, bass, guitar. Just a fantastic work of art
It has pretty much everything in it, from violins to a piano
it's so amazing because it was written by The Rev xD
Christian harrison eee I can a lot of Mike Portnoy taste here, maybe the rev made the core but, the refining was done by mike thats for sure.
The drumming in this is just insane
I realy think that the hate for Mike should stop. He stepped into shoes that none can fill
Right. And jimmy looked up to mike. They chose a good person ( mike ) to fill in atm. R.I.P foREVer..
taylor beilfuss You realize Portnoy has been out of the band for like 2 years?
Mike Portnoy is an awesome drummer! Dream Theater and Avenged Sevenfold are my favourite bands!
Skitzomango 13 damn.. Deep...
@Andi Müller I agree, anyone who disses Portnoys drumming is a complete idiot and has almost certainly never once even touched a drum kit.
Old A7X is good, new A7X is good, A7X is good! Please stop arguing! :)
***** We shall love A7X^^
New a7x is bad (hail too the king)
the next LP should be titled "Hail Two The King"
iHN LIVE that was a joke right?
Their music prior to their latest release was amazing. Now, it really just depends on what you're into.
I feel like this song is underated. I've been bumping this for 6 years.
Anthony Conwell same
And i still am in 2018
Una cancion para el Jokerrr
Riddle me this, do you rock out to rap?...no...no you do not.
Don't ever confuse the two genre's again, unless you want to be trolled...not being a dick, just saying.
Still bumping it bro?
This song is me, playing Dark Souls.
"We're only here to die"

Super Hexagon also works.

Holy mother of puns
bruh. .. that's some deep shit... hit me in the feels

Easily their best song in my opinion and I've heard them all. This is a masterpiece and it goes to show that what's bad for the heart makes good art. RIP Jimmy
right on🤘
What's bad for the heart as in what the masses want? Not the music they would want to make?
"He may be out of his mind
But someday you will find
That sanity's left us all blind
And dragged us all behind
A moment seen through those eyes
Crystal blue disguise
They say that all beauty must die
I say it just moves on.
If you only opened your mind
Then someday you will find
Insanity's left us behind
And walked right through the door
I can see the pictures clear as yesterday
Pictures all my own
I can hear the voices begging you to stay
But know you're not alone."
Still best part in any A7X song to date, both musically and lyrically. Period. The end. No discussion.
Everybody has their own tastes in music some lyrics much more powerful and true than others. I believe both Buried Alive and Save Me are perfect in their own little way. The reason I prefer Save Me over Buried Alive is because there are truly three parts to the song; the beginning, the small start to something big; the middle, the anger and the power within the music and the voice alike, and the end, the sadness and the acceptance within the voice especially during the “Tonight we all die young” part of the song.

❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Yes.In my opinion,this song shows us a young people who has depression and keeps suffering from it while he is still living as a normal people.Especially the lyrics,symbolizing some people being isolated in real life
Can't believe this is the ONE song Spotify doesn't have on the Nightmare album.
I said the same thing
But you know that version isnt the original neither is this the original was with eminem and A7X and Eminem wernt really best freinds so they erased the track
I cry everytime
Same in beats music they have it but you can't listen to it
Derpy Charske Whoa, really? Or areyou just joking?
Wimp too
How much I wish A7X made more of these Dream-Theater-ish songs. This is the only A7X song that sounds like Dream Theater and it's their best one.
Completely agree! This sounds almost like a Dream Theater-kinda tribute. I wish people had recognized that more. Not because of 11 mins, but the composition man and all the changing tempos, and most of all, Portnoy's drumming!
First time hearing of this. Commenting to learn more.
11 minutes thing is a tribute?
I saw this originally as a Dethklok ish.
This song is written in a style I wish Dream Theater did more as well. Has shades of the days of DT's Awake and Scenes from a Memory.
Why haven't I heard this masterpiece before? Fuck
better late than never.
Hello again ;).
And this is easily my favorite A7X song. Such a masterpiece.
never too late m8
this or victim, both so underrated
Stephen Sturgis The album Nightmare. Get it. The entire album is pure genius.
It does not matter how much time passes this is by far the best song of ALL TIME. Everything about this song is pure genius and perfection. ABSOLUTE PERFECTION!
Amen to that
Most underrated a7x song by far
That's because no one can find it. It's not on spotify or beats music or most other places so it's really hard
chazz9o this. I hate how this song isn't on Spotify!
chazz9o well it IS on iTunes.
Even M. Shadows himself said this (that this is their most underrated song)
the most underrated and the most perfect and hard song of they,that's is my thought
Favorite song. Ever. Needs.More.Like.It.NowPlease.
ikr i wish they made a music video I can't even imagine how awesome that would probably look
Yeah I agree
too bad the old A7x is gone :(
Nope. The old A7x is not gone at all, just because they sound newer, and use their idols as their template, does not mean they are gone. The new A7x has just arrived.
ReveralUS well they lost their old style for sure, they used to put violins and epic stuff in their music but now they're trying to be metal... which really sucks :( RIP the Rev
This and Exist are the best A7X songs in my opinion. They’re not just songs, they’re... masterpieces, so creative and full of emotion. Honestly Avenged Sevenfold is one of the most interesting bands out there
Oh and I forgot M.I.A., that song’s really good as well
@@joshdunsdrumstick And All Things Will End, too!
Plus shattered by broken dreams
Put this into 'bass treble booster' and put the setting to 'death' then went into speaker settings and put it onto auditorium. Sounds like a fucking war charge with borderland bandits/mad max guys
***** I was gunna but it might just be instantly taken down, i'll see though
+FreeFireGamer that sounds awesome! i also wanna Know If you upload it :D
+FreeFireGamer please make a vid of it if u do ill sub
Mr.Goodwill McGhee i'll try, but it was a free trial and it ran out. When I get back from work if I remember to i'll uninstall and see if I can get another 30 days trial. I'll do it with more songs.
+FreeFireGamer I can't wait to hear the effect you mean. Counting on you ;)
I used to listen to this back when I had a lot of family issues. (still kinda am but oh well.) you know a song is good when it almost brings down a tear from your eyes.
Anything you are willing to talk about? It may be private but keeping it bottled up will certainly make it worse.
Well, not much to tell now. I've told a lot and the more I say it the more I feel people think its just first world problems. It was things like divorce and leaving the entirety of where I grew up and all my friends, which essentially tore me in two. Along with moving house to house because most of my family didn't care if I was around. Eh..okay maybe there's a lot more than I let on, but things have been mostly going better within the past month or two. My stepdad bought me this album back when it came out originally, and its bittersweet for me.
I'm sorry to hear that, I guess my life is easy
Argus I feel you but with me it's also just any issue as well and somehow this song and many other avenged songs seem to lighten me up
same thing at 2019!
Listen to this with headphones, parts like 1:23 where it cycles from one ear to the other give it a completely new feel and effect.
"Tonight we all die young" let's hope not. Maybe for my sake. But we all miss you Jimmy.
he's coming back he's in the woods becoming the knife master 😭😭
+Harry Muntz riding the stallion duck
badass as ever
It seems like a jynx when people play with life and sometimes don't realize but at the same time don't care if they pass, like me, but it opened my eyes after the second time waking up in the hospital, now I say I'm going to live foREVer!!!
@Harry Muntz
and i'm never coming back AND WHEN I COME BACK
6:57 - 8:05 is my absolute favorite part of this song, I just really love the way it sounds.
Especially the second half of that time, when you just get hit full force with everything at once, in an absolutely amazing manner. Definitely my favorite part of the song, without a doubt.
+Drojanx my favorite part 0:00-10:57
+Drojanx agree ;)
Wow. THIS LIKE AN ULTIMATE A7X DREAM THEATRE COMBO
Yes! I completely agree with you!
It's true that Mike Pornoy, but al the drum tracks had already been recorded by The Rev
TheTrainStation Mostly true. All drums were written by the Rev of other band members. several fills throughout the album were played by him though.
TheTrainStation Also, don't forget that the piano in Fiction was one of The Rev's recordings for the album. Most of the song of Fiction was already written out by him.
I love it
I still can’t believe this song is 11 minutes. Every time it ends I always play it again because I feel it wasn’t enough.
Congratulations mrekk for the osu!standard pp record! 1322 pp!
I find this song beautiful, R.I.P. Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan
I kno right! R.I.P Jimmy foREVer ;-)
know*
a7x has no chill when it comes to the length of their songs
Their songs arent that long... This is the only one thats over 10 minutes, I think. 20 minutes and then we can call it long
+Brandon WhyShouldYouCare Same band, other song. Six degrees of inner turbulence from Dream Theater. You can also count all the Metropolis parts as one song, and then it will be about 1,5 hours. Or the whole Astonishing, 2 hours. You can also count all the parts of 12 step suite as one song, since all of them have parts of each others, and the subject of the songs is the same. It would be about 1 hour
lmfao
+Arvaa Kuka People who know fucking dream theater ! Hell yeah!
+cole blackburn Up the Dream Theater!
let the sadness begin! All hail Johnny Christ For That intro!
+DMShadowMan 00-000000-00-0-0000
+DMShadowMan One of the only times we can hear him :)
Adou7x Indeed, my fellow American.
+Domenick boucher Actually it's 0-000-000-0000000-000-000------
Hail Johnny Christ. He did everything for a7x😂
Masterpiece. Avenged Sevenfold might be my favorite band after this, I NEVER thought I would say that. The talent it took to write and assemble this is mind boggling. Gates is on another level all together.
This is so beautiful and haunting at the same time. It's not just a song, it's more of an adventure.
R.I.P Jimmy
A true masterpiece, a work of lyrical and instrumental art that cannot be described by mere words... Insanity's left us behind! It's simply beautiful... Brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it...
I've been listening to these guys since 2002 and its just their the band thats been with my life forever. And Jimmy Sullivan will forever be with them to me. R.I.P.
When ur friends are on their 4 song but you're still on ur 1st 😂
Ethyn Fultz late but that’s so true
Doesn’t make any sense but hey I love me some good clean metal tho, who’s with me, right?!
@@melodya9893 yesssss
No when you are listening octavarium
okay but like the 24 minute long masterpiece that is The Odyssey by Symphony X or Dopesmoker by Sleep which is 01:03:36 long
This song is too short.
lol
Yeah it should atlest of been 20 min long
Batteriii never ending...
BadNews Barrett Forsome reason Poweramp on my phone says its 16 and a half minutes....I wish it was true..
Should be 50 minutes
I'm honestly surprised that Syn's guitar hasn't exploded at this point.
Sir Squidington They did. Didn’t you know Shecter sent him new guitars because they keep exploding?
Akmal Hadhri Did they really though? (Im an Idiot lol)
@@i_need_sleep_2034 no he just broke the strings on them and was too lazy to replace them so he kept switching guitars
It's A7X. I'd be surprised if it didn't explode
"awesome musicalness" indeed.
Been rocking to this band for years. Ffdp and ax7 are the legends of metal/rock
A7X is writing their seventh album currently, really hope its like this!
I hope so too!
They like to change their style a lot. I want one like this or COE, but they said they probably won't do another COE style album :(.
FreeFireGamer I personally have never understood all the love for City Of Evil, it's my least favorite album by them because it has such an overall weird sound I think. A mix of heavy metal and hard rock and goes back and forth, but I'm not saying it's bad so many people seem to like that so much more then they're other stuff. I just like the more regular heavy metal sound of Nightmare, Hail To The King and the Metalcore sound of Waking the Fallen and Sounding the Seventh Trumpet. But that's just my opinion and you have yours.
Cole Mauro I love it for its energy, personally I don't like songs with scream parts, but I do like most of nightmare and some of waking the fallen.
FreeFireGamer Yea everyone has their own tastes.
I started loving A7X and went out of them. I thought j was bored of their music but then I realised I just didn't like the stuff without the Rev in. I guess that makes me a fan again and this is the first time listening to them for months. I urge you all to stop listening to your favourite band until say Christmas then once you start again, you appriciate them a lot more!
Josh XM_Smith Strangely enough this song gives me a Christmas vibe, like a holiday a7x song.
this is one of the best fucking A7X Songs without a doubt!
probably is their best song and a little piece of heaven
ive gotta go with mia
Edthebarrel yeh thats an awesome song, my favourite 5 are i wont see you tonight, mia, betrayed, save me ad a little piece of heaven, although all of them are masterpieces
Nice profile pic ;).
615 sounds like SOAD
avenged sevenfold, thank you for 485pp play, you are yet my biggest achievement for a year.
Oh my God, I think I fell in love with this song
You should try listening to their whole album, my personal pick is seize the day, gunslinger, the wicked end, unbound (the wild ride), demons, afterlife, almost easy, a little piece of heaven, bat country, and so many more... Literally all their songs have good tones
Dewa Kawauchi I know, their songs are so incredible!!
Those songs are not from the same album but yes they have many amazing songs!
this whole song is amazing but the lyrics from 6:28 and on are actually fuckin beautiful. ive never taken the time to sit and look at lyrics but its insane
trblackhawk33 the entire song is amazing but yes, right there... the best part. Damn..
Don't forget it!
This song is just so beautiful, i love the sound they had in the Nightmare album
TundraL5Z me too, nightmare is ma favorite album of 'Em. I can't stop listening.
Every album has that long masterpiece
City of evil had MIA and strength of the world
Self titled had dear god and a little piece of heaven
Nightmare had save me
The stage had the exist
By far, their best song.
The instrumentation...the vocals...the lyrics...the musicianship, it's all perfect in here.
When I'm in a dark place, I like to listen to this and remember that I'm not the only one out there, and many have it much worse. When I'm restless, I like to let the sweet melody bring me to sleep. And when I'm happy, I like to sing along and headbang where appropriate. A true work of art, reminds me of the works of Iron Maiden!
They all know
They all know
Sorry did I wake your dreams?
Some questions are up to be
We only only wake up when we sleep
Left by the lunar light
Troubles are all we find
Lost our way tonight
Is it something we said?
Is it something we said to them?
Is it something we said?
Save me
I'm trapped in a vile world
Where the ending's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
Save me
I'm losing my only dream
I could use some guiding light
Some place to go
If you hear me let me know
They all know
They all know
Ever since the day you left
My fate's been set alone
How many years to walk this path alone?
So much to see tonight
So why'd you close your eyes?
Why can't I shut mine?
Is it something we did?
Is it something we did to them?
Is it something we did?
Save me
I'm trapped in a vile world
Where the ending's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
Save me
I'm losing my only dream
I can use some guiding light
Some place to go
If you hear me let me know
If you hear me let me know
Aaaah
Help me find my way
I said help me find my way
No force inside of me
Stone cold lips and help me see
All lies into a degree
Losing you I wanna be
You'll find out I do
He maybe out of his mind
But some day you will find
That sanity's left us all blind
And dragged us all behind
Of moment's seemed to go's eyes
Crystal blue disguise
They say that all beauty must die
I say it just moves on
If you'd only open your mind
Then someday you will find
Insanity's left us behind
And walked right through the night
I can see the picture's clear
As yesterday pictures of my own
I can hear the voice's begging you to stay
But know you're not alone
Save me,
I'm trapped in a vile world
Where the ending's all the same as every other
We're only here to die
Save me
I'm losing my only dream
I can use some guiding light
Some place to go
If you hear me let me know
If you hear me let me know
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die young
Tonight we all die
Tonight we all die young

4 years since I heard this song and I still love it. The melodies, the riffs, the solos, the bass, the vocals, the drums, the lyrics. Everything is perfect in this song. This song made me love Mike Portnoy's drumming and I will foREVer appreciate this song in particular. We miss you Rev! Thank God you co-wrote this masterpiece before you left this world.
67 years old and I love this band...There is real talent here if others would take the time to listen...Not all bands nowadays are sh.. this is proper lyrics and real music, just because it's not beethovan or bach does'nt mean its not brilliant ..
Yeah I'm 14 and this is my favourite band. I love how anyone, of any age or gender or anything can come together and enjoy the same music, it's really nice.♥️😊
this will be getting played at my funeral, it will always be my favourite avenged song, it's an emotional roller-coaster of pure emotion and fantastic sound
"Ever since the day you left my fate's been set unknown. How many years to walk this path alone? So much to see tonight so why'd you close your eyes? Why can't i shut mine?" "Tonight we all die young" "save me, I'm trapped in a vile world where the endings are all the same as every other. We're only here to die". Aw man that's deep right there. Very Emotional song.
2017 and I'm still here 😊Bless you, Jimmy
Glad I grew up on this album. This song will always be in my playlist of best songs of all time
I always liked that song but the music is so beautiful I never took the time to listen to the lyrics other than the chorus. Now I find it even more beautiful and right now relatable, rediscovered the song a few weeks back. Grateful
Same for me. This band has honestly touched my life and idk what it is about them just helps ease my mind and get me through
It's a shame that Nicki Minaj's song pops up first if you just search for "Save Me"
lol ikr i have a whole video about this exact topic if u wanna watch it. called society
John Regan Guitar Oh nice video by the way
People have tastes. Mayority hasn't got a supreme superior taste like us. Or something like that.
Sidney Harrold pretty close since it’s Kpop as well :/
2020 e continua sendo a melhor musica do mundo
Sempre será
Omg this song sounds great with surround sound headphones.
Aquanox 19 I listened to this with my headset for the first time a few days ago and HOLY SHIT
Aquanox 19 The Rev's drumming was amazing (yeah I know Mike recorded it but Rev created it)
The fade from the guitar from right to left and back in the beginning is a good reason to listen to this with headphones in
man, i get to listen to a7x and laugh as everyone gets mad at others' opinions. its like two shows in one, haha.
i kid, but seriously guys, its a music lyric video, not a complaint office. lets all just enjoy the music.
also, i know it doesn't matter much, but i too am a guitarist. these guys are my idol, but there always will be 'better bands', because no one is perfect. that is just is the way it is. now lets all just be at peace and enjoy a song or two, am i right?
*bows to the chosen one*
everyone is entitled to their own opinion, jasper.
and is metal fluttershy bowing to me? im no chosen one, not even close. then again, i wouldnt know.
Devin... it was a joke... if you couldn't tell...
The Insult was a Joke, but I do believe A7X is the best Metal band Ever..
I recognized A7X as the best when I started listening to metal and rock in 2005. Good luck all other bands. You're all awesome but A7X is simply the best.
Na minha humilde opinião a melhor música do Avenged Sevenfold, sou apaixonado por essa música ♡
Their long songs are always the best
Like exist?
Caroline Lumsden well exist is not nearly as good as this song tbh. it's longer, and it's good, but nothing beats save me
Completely agree with you
Close your eyes while you listen to this part ! 5:47 - 6:08
Omfg yes thank you
monkeysingit123 no problem :)
Whoa awesome man love that part thanks so much dude!
WesleyAlvesGames Fucking goosebumps haha
Cole Sousa Hehe.
I love every album by a7x and listened to them all repeatedly! But this is their best song! My all time favourite!
Jimmy was easily the best drummer in his genre and a talent that was unmatched amongst his peers..i miss him.Wherever he went when he left us..he's kicking ass.
R.I.P Jimmy"the rev"Sullivan
I don't know why but I really LOVE Mike Portnoy's druming in this one, I enjoy this more than his playing in Dream Theater, and I'm a huge DT fan.
Maybe it's because the sound of this drumkit, or maybe it's solid AF.
The opening guitar part is fucking SICK
Sic*
jasper Bacon I see what you did there
it's a base.....
Henrik Fos Base Guitar.... #Derpforlife
The opening kinda seems batmanish
This song its awesome, nice arrangements, very melodic.
I only wake up when I sleep.... A7X for life
Ba ribut km ini
11 years later, still brings me to tears. I hope you're doing well up there rev
“The Rev "Seized the Day" to conquer the "City of Evil" in "Bat Country", and forced the "Beast and the Harlot" to "Scream" their "Unholy Confessions".
He left them "Trashed and Scattered" and "Blinded In Chains" with the "Strength of the World". He found it "Almost Easy" and became a "Sidewinder" and slithered to "A Little Piece of Heaven" in his "Afterlife", now he is "M.I.A." and his "Nightmare" has come to pass.RIP Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, you're gone but NEVER forgotten!”
― Avenged Sevenfold
we all miss the rev. ;-;
Appreciate your effort
Nice i love dis fckng coment
Is everyone just going to ignore the drums at 10:36?
No, actually my favorite part and one of the most complex, the rev was a beast
GodSmacK518 Im pretty sure they used The Rev's voice when it says "They dont know!"
Anthony Conwell Yea it was Rev and also when ''Skull''. There is some people that think that was johnny but it was Rev but actuallly the one who said ''Skull'' like was johnny
The Rev wrote the drums for this album, but I'm assuming the fills were all Portnoy
@@samcook176 same feelings. Nightmare album has portnoy style a lot.
In my opinion, the first 2 minutes has got to be the greatest intro of all time
I agree!
can't stop replaying the 1:23 - 1:39 section. help
I have a worse addiction to "A Little Piece Of Heaven"
I may need to see a doctor xD
Phil Fluffy Gaz same neither . that song is my last song everytime karaoke session 😂😂😂 idk why .. hahaha
anadraps - for me it's 5:46 - 6:07 ❤👌
Death_Dealer320 YT
My thoughts exactly. Something about that part gives me chills every time.
anadraps - its called a guitar solo 😉👅
this is art.
Save me
BTS 297mil
A7X 4 mil
It really really saddens me
Jesus de nazareth solo tenia 12 dicipulos
Mohamed Frahat bts is a really good group you don’t need to bash them because they have more views. I admit I’d also like to see more views on A7x songs but most people don’t like this type of music and it saddens me. But you don’t need to go around comparing artists especially because they aren’t even close to the same genre of music.
Jazz Lynn he deadass didn’t compare shit only da views😐
BTS is mainstream music.
Id rather have it this way..
Be proud to be the 1%
Congrats mrekk for 1322pp new record
"*Awesome Musicalness*"
Appreciation level: Extreme! 👌👍🏻
SKULL!!!

Hiro mate its called deathbat not skull but ok
hi
how can anyone dislike this video? i mean ffs its a lyric video, it has lyrics and a song behind it, what more do you want ? awesome song too, one of their best
the dislikes are the people who are sitting upside down
Australians?
Underrated comment! 🧠💡
I love these long Avenged Sevenfold songs, so much meaning and great talent. This song reminds me of MIA very much in terms of length and the meaning behind it.
Kenangan d lembur baheula jeng kawan kawan. Kini aku mendengarkannya lagi namun tanpa kawan
2021 , ciwidey
Mantap kang

Does this song make anyone else feel like they've stepped into a beautiful new world.
In my opinion, this is a very demonic or dramatic song. (For example: We only (only) wake up when we sleep, They all know, Tonight we all die young etc.) It's really hard for me to explain how this song makes me really feel or think. But this song is GREAT! :)
Makes me feel like I’m a demon king reclaiming my earthly throne. Revival bitch!
It makes me feel like I'm trapped in a vile world
Avenged Sevenfold should make a proggy album like this
this album was a tribute to the Rev so i highly doubt they'll make another album just like this
+eric gomez let alone the fact that the Rev wrote almost all the songs including this one
+eric gomez on this album that is
+mcLOVINdonalds Jimmy didn't write this song the song says "ever since the day you left my fates been set unknown" it's kinda about him
Surely this one is inspired by Dream Theater whom Portnoy played for. Definitely one of the best A7X songs.
I just love the drums in this track. They sound so powerful, yet not overbearing. Totally precise, and kinda snappy sounding. Perfectly the way I love it ♥
Todays kids wont know how amazing the rev's skills actually was, unless they like to look back at the good shit!
Jacob Martinez yes. even portnoy play this but, rev actually write it.
#fuckMyGrammar
Kernfrps1720 Yes he was amazing but unfortuntely this wasn't him in this song. This is from the album Nightmare. The replacement is good but aint the same without good ol' Jimmy Sullivan.
Jacob Martinez I'm 17 and when I heard him play, he was fucking amazing. Sad AF how he lost his life at the age of 28...
Taken down in the prime of his life
True dat
intro+(4.30-end)= best song ever. it's just incredible
this song heal our souls
Is it normal that I cry when this song is on full blast and I'm alone? The lyrics are so deep and the guitar makes my heart rave ❤💧
This song needed to be longer but oh well I'll just keep on repeating it
Im special too!
*proceeds to fit as many a7x songs in a sentence*
it's 2016 broo!!!! still love this song!
Greatest song of the album. I get shivers and feels so deep when listening to this, because imo this song is perfect, from the guitar, drum, vocals, and the lyrics too. Not a second wasted.
