Commenting on the track, the band explains: "Our upcoming album 'Sounds Of The Forgotten' is our defining statement, a testament to what we in Witherfall hold sacred in the Rock and Metal Zeitgeist. We delve into many forms on 'Sounds Of The Forgotten' and one of the truly lost art-forms becoming ever more rare is the 'Power Ballad'. Forgoing cheesy and sometimes hallow tropes about unrequited love we chose to write about our love of music. This ballad is an ode for anyone that finds themselves on their journey (whatever it may be) and fearing that their dream may be slipping away from them. Where do i begin? is a call to find your passion again and revisit those initial reasons for all of your sacrifices."

WITHERFALL
Where Do I Begin?
Once upon a time, before all of our ties were broken
We used to try to hide our prejudice and lies unspoken
Now we long for days and revisit our pasts abandoned
They’re falling away, left to tell the story of our lives…
If our dream dies, will I be awake enough to save it?
If I have a choice, tell me Where do I begin?
Time after time, given everything I had for nothing
To find an answer, deny the sin. Tell me, Where do I Begin?
Our reality unwinds, bring in all the wasted years in focus
Though we try to justify, those memories will not console us
Here we stand today, as witness to our fading seasons
The years drift away, to sail across the river lost in time
If our dream dies, will I be awake enough to save it?
If I have a choice, tell me Where do I begin?
Time after time, given everything I had for nothing
To find an answer, deny the sin. Tell me, Where do I Begin?
Will no one here, pose the question? We all want answers.
Time is not our friend, though we will surely meet tonight.
Waiting in a small room, locked beyond the door as it closes forever.
Forever…
If our dream dies, will I be awake enough to save it?
If I have a choice, tell me Where do I begin?
Time after time, given everything I had for nothing
To find an answer, deny the sin. Tell me, Where do I Begin?

Witherfall was formed in Los Angeles in 2013. Joseph Michael (also of Sanctuary fame) and Jake Dreyer (ex-Iced Earth/Demons & Wizards) built their new band around drummer Adam Sagan (RIP) and accomplished bassist Anthony Crawford (Allan Holdsworth, CHON). Since then, the group have released three highly regarded albums: Nocturnes and Requiems (2017), A Prelude to Sorrow (2018), and Curse of Autumn (2021) and an ep Vintage (2019). Not one to cut corners, Witherfall enlisted famed drummer Marco Minnemann (The Aristocrats, Steven Wilson) on Curse of Autumn, ensuring the foundations of singles “As I Lie Awake,” “The Other Side of Fear,” and “The River” were second to none. On the new album Minnemann returns to the fold with an album-only appearance, while drummer Chris Tsaganeas (Wax Owls) and multi-instrumentalist Gerry Hirschfeld (Willie Nelson) Witherfall’s newest permanent members...

thought i saw the utica club brewery and utica, NY early in the video...crazy, greetings from oswego, NY...bout an hour away...cheers all!!!
Jm is from there
I'm currently on my wife's RUclips.
I used to live in Liverpool and have family from Cortland, but I'm originally from Long Island (Islip/Suffolk County) and am a huge metalhead and fan of all forms of heavy extreme METAL music.
My top 10 favorite METAL bands of all time are :
1) Anthrax
2) Testament
3) Witherfall
4) Savatage
5) King Diamond
6) Sabaton
7) Helloween
8) Blind Guardian
9) Arch Enemy
10) FleshGod Apocalypse
Awesome! Our vocalist is from Utica... He is also related to another Upstate NY legend. @@karenpritchard4886

Just downloaded on Apple Music.
58 year old metal head here 🤙
Absolutely LOVE this song my dudes!!
Add before Lamb of God brought me here!! Keep the great songs coming!
Much love!!
Interesting
Lamb of God is complete garbage. Its indeed interesting how a Lamb's fan ended up here :P
I think you've recently discovered metal and you don't have much knowledge about it, but you have the brain for it.
Keep discovering the good shit. The vast majority of it is underground. Always been that way.
@@martinhardy6665 It's a strange world... Plenty of room for all types of art.
Outstandingly phenomenal, the vocals lyrics and musicians ❤
🍷
Ad sponsor brought me here. Will never turn down a music video ad, especially when I'm jamming out on RUclips. Love the style. Welcome to the Metal 3 playlist on my channel! \m/
Thanks!!!
Same. I debated between screenshotting, and skipping. Glad I clicked to listen.
@@sabi_stray83 \../,
Just wow. Amazing. All of it.
🍷
The last album was a perfect ten, discovered you a couple of years ago. This new one will be a spectacle, with every song you are revealing, it´s becoming more and more interesting. Musicianship is top notch in every aspect, but, as a "singer oriented person" which I am, Joseph Michael is already there with my all time favorite singers, Dickinson, Halford, Dio, Tate, Owens, Gillan, Adams, what a versatile and amazing voice you have ! Chills.
\../,
Holy shit! This was UNREAL! What a group to stumble upon. Youve definitely got a new fan!!🤘🔥🤘
🍷 Thanks!
The haunting reflection of Warrel Dane & Midnight. Such a masterful group. This just gives me chills. The musicianship is unbelievable. Fantastic album.
\../, Did you get the new album? www.amazon.com/dp/B0D3YY6LB4?ref=myi_title_dp
Very Nice. The Words do Speak! TY
Thank you!
Gives me the same feeling from another great band that is no longer with us, thank you for that.
Our pleasure!
New fan..Facts!!You all are 🔥🔥🔥
❤
Progresive power metal like Eldritch and pagansmind ,with hints of sanctuary!
\../,
I love it.. very reminiscent of my high school days with Tesla guns and roses bon Jovi warrant
It's a little of that for sure!

The intro from the ad was sick, so I had to check it out. Fantastic, melodic, yet the song still has a dark vibe. The guitar playing reminds me of Scorpions a little bit as well! Playing those melodic riffs are harder than playing anything fast, imo.
Definitely some dark Scorpions vibes.
This was in my algorithm as an ad you definitely have a new subscriber and I have sent your music to my favorite reactor that I help❤ I really really like your music
I just can't say enough how amazing you guys are the vocals of the riffs the combination of like old yes and combination of new I love it I love it I love it I love it
Thank you so much! What is the channel? Cheers!

This song is beautiful and so awesome ❤😢
Thanks Logan!
Studio is old church on Genesee St. In Utica, NY
This is the singer i'm pretty sure i knew some of your family. They owned a car dealership or sponsored a baseball team.
@@Witherfall big family we are like the Johnsons in other city's. Lol your from Utica? Your band showed up on my feed and I knew it was the Genesee St. Studio so glad it did you guys are awesome. They promote food but not a homegrown talent killin it!!!! Best wishes and continued success in all your endeavors. God Bless. I've been watching your videos today.... Love the music!!
Reminiscent of Dream Theater. Very good. Loved the quick part at 3:43. Nice job, y'all.
We do love Dream Theater
melodic & agressive

missed Witherfall on tour with Evergrey in 2021 and Joseph with Sanctuary in 2020, postponed to 2021, postponed to 2022 and finally 2023 the whole thing was cancelled. I don't give up hope. One time I'll be there in the audience...

Definitely one of my all time fav songs here!! Love the new album!!! Keep kicking ass Witherfall!!!

I love this soooo much! I love you guys! First time hearing
Welcome!
Just stumbled upon this gem 💎 Nice! 🎸🎶👨🎤
\../,
the best of band of the moment #Witherfall 🎸❤️🎶
We accept your nomination \../,
Even when it appears to be a boring pop ballad at first, you get an intense instrumental part and heavy vocal parts :D
And then you remember you're listening to the best prog metal band and slap yourself for thinking it might have been boring and low quality.
The benefits of listening to more than 30 seconds of a song... lol
@@Witherfall or not talking the whole time when you show someone a song. Godamn that annoys me to no end. But you see right away those who don't have a brain for music.
@@martinhardy6665 Damn right
First time hearing this song and the first few seconds gave me chills lmaooo.., damnn..

Good track !!!

Y'all have definitely evolved a bit. When I first heard A Prelude To Sorrow I really liked it and heard a lot of Nevermore in your sound. I don't hear quite so much Nevermore now. It's still there in your musical DNA, but you have your own identity for sure. Great work!
Every song is different ❤
Ok gracias❤🎉🎉🎉
Gracias!
No words ❤

Grandes Witherfall, son los mejores, excelente tema, soy fanático de su estilo y música, saludos desde Venezuela.

Geiler Song😍
\../,
I typed in the message "I'm sorry that I took too much mercy on the perverts".not because it's what I wanted to say but rather that what was spoken to me in the air of the room I'm sitting in. Your song came up 2 on the search results. So you know how I found this song. Discovery channel ain't got nothing on the Creators potential...
That is crazy...
Not much into power ballads, but this is a lovely little tune, nevertheless. Hope there's enough heavier stuff on the album, though.

Straight gothic thrash metal reminds me of h.i.m
Great band
Id like to hear some piano behind this music
It’s there
I gotta hear more of the music. I'm thinking piano and epic solos on guitar are orchestrated into the music. Maybe a collaboration with "Tragic Society" would be EPIC too
@@Fivestar-q1v the composition is written as it is deliberately there will be plenty of more music
I will listen to it it all. Thank you
