Megadeth has NO bad album, really... Every album is different and I love it. And some say Dave can't sing? He wasn't even supposed to be a lead singer in the first place, remember? And yet, before he got singing pro-lessons, he was nailing as feck!
Megadeth was untouchable from 1990- 1997 I feel like Dave fired Nick and the band went on a steady decline after his departure. But slowly came back to the top after all that drama in the early 2000’s
Genius Dave is a genius in how he writes and sings his lyrics, with such feeling and undertone. Thank you Dave and Megadeth for all the great songs throughout the years!
Christopher Hargreaves Risk (to me at least) was bullcrappish glam rock ballad type of nonsense. By 'pop' I mean taking into account that they're still a metal band. And Cryptic Writings was, for me at least, the most melodic, memorable in terms of lyrics and soulful (if you will), hard rock album of the 90's. One of those albums you remember a lot of lyrics to decades later, and they make you insanely nostalgic. No other Megadeth album (not even Rust in Peace) does that to me. But again, this may be highly opinionated and subjective.
Much respect for Dave. He was determined and never gave up. He has earned what he has with Megadeth. The redemption he writes about in his book is the icing on the cake.
I lied just a little When I said I need you You stretched the truth When you said that you knew Just can't believe it There's nothing to say I was almost honest, almost Living alone, can't stand this place It's four in the morning and I still see your face I was nearly pure When I said I loved you You were semi-sincere You said I'd bleed for you We were kind of candid Now you've gone away You were almost honest, almost Living alone, falling from grace I want to atone but there's just empty space I can't face tomorrow, now you're not coming back Walked off in the night and just left me the tracks I question your call by the tone of your voice I know I should hang up but I don't have a choice It happened that night when you told me to go Don't ask who's to blame, I don't know [Solo - Friedman] Living alone, falling from grace I want to atone but there's just empty space I can't face tomorrow, now you're not coming back Walked off in the night and just left me the tracks Almost, almost honest Almost, I was almost honest \m/
"I question the call, by the tone of your voice I know I should hang up, but I don't have a choice It happened that night, when you told me to go Don't ask who's to blame, I don't know" I absolutely love these lyrics, I can relate a lot to this song. Only the genius of Dave to come up with such amazing lyrics. Funny that a band as heavy and fast as Megadeth also had several songs about breakups and relationship issues, and they're all amazing.
I prefer the classic thrash metal albums, but still think Cryptic Writing is INCREDIBLE good. It's not thrash but you still can find old Megadeth influences. Some average band couldn't do this...
No, I wasn't there, because I at this time I was not even born. But I bought all albums of them. And this is my opinion. Accept it. By the way: I haven't said that I think, their early albums were bad. In fact, "Peace Sells" and "Holy Wars... The Punishment Due" belong also to my favourites of Megadeth. But also this one. Do you have a problem with that?
@@gabe6550 you fighting yourself? tf. lol I love this song too. My mom loved it and it's a part of my childhood along with metallica's hero of the day.
Heard this song when my son was playing a video game - twenty years ago? The lyrics and melody are so good. It has such a kick ass beat that I listened to it when working out for years. Almost Honest - Ha. Thanks Megadeth for an excellent tune that got me going and helped power through many workouts.

@Dave Scott Mustaine of course I’ll be a fan forever... Heavy Metal is in my blood, but, no, sorry I’m not on google chat.... the internet is a big place and although I am completely star struck to think that you are really you... I can’t actually be 100% sure.... (I’m sure you understand) Keep it real.... love your writing above all! 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
I know Dave will never see this...but I just gotta say Thank You so very much for getting fired from Metallica. I love Metallica but by god you music has been in my life for about 35 years now. I cant even begin to express with most deepest respect of not quitting and for every album. Dave Mustaine for President! could you imagine Thanks Dave!
Man this video haha. Brings me back a while. I remember watching this over and over on my arsenal of megadeth DvD. I was only a little kid then..had to be 10 or 12 years ago. Loved this song. That dvd is also how I heard A secret place. Also an underrated tune from this album.
If you ever listened to Ryst in Peace, Countdown to Extincion, Peace Sells ecc, you wouldn't say this. Megadeth's albums suck, from Youthanasia to Super Collider.
@@wr3nt Lol Youthanasia, Cryptic Writings, The world needs a hero, The system has failed, United abominations, endgame and 13 are all Great albums… Only “Bad” albums they’ve released are Risk and Super Collider. Dystopia was great too
I love Cryptic Writings in its entirety. Risk, too, was for me a brilliant album, and a testament to the fact that the band had the capacity and the courage to explore. Sure, the album was hated at the time by some, but I really doubt playing it safe near the peak of their success would sound as good in hindsight. I love the Megadeth of the 90's.
Johnny Fountains Bud Prager was the dude who ruined Megadeth, Cryptic Whitings was honestly their last good album, I’m surprised his old ass was on board with this album that was pretty heavy and thrashy, then he did Risk, but honestly the band started falling apart when Dave fires Nick
Wow. Ive been a megadeth fan for years and just realized now how different the remastered version is from this one. Dont think ive ever actually listened to this one. Knew something sounded different...

I feel like they got worse when Marty took over too much
*laughs in Super Collider*
@@redradhako super collider is a shitty album. Risk isn't, just poppy.
to be fair, james in metallica didn't have any singing lessons until the black album and he also hadn't planned on singing
This song is underrated, this song is 10/10

I showed this song to my girl and megadeth is her favorite band now
So right and I definitely listened to it a lot after breaking up with my girlfriend

You're 100 percent right!

AGREED!
I realize that Cryptic Writings is probably their most pop album, but it's also my fav.
What about Risk? Wouldn't say that was heavier than Cryptic Writings, dude

+Cléo Z i would argue to say Risk is there most pop rock album
insomnia man. says it all.
***** i won't say it's thrash but uhh. power metal ?
Am I the only one who thinks that 90% of Megadeth's songs are better than good?
nope
100%
there are many of us! come... join us!
Yes you were almost honest...
I think its 110% better than awesome.
Underrated song from an under appreciated album.
There u are again tf

Love this song, the chorus is infectiously catchy and the solo is just incredible, my favourite from CW.

I lied just a little
When I said I need you
You stretched the truth
When you said that you knew
Just can't believe it
There's nothing to say
I was almost honest, almost
Living alone, can't stand this place
It's four in the morning and I still see your face
I was nearly pure
When I said I loved you
You were semi-sincere
You said I'd bleed for you
We were kind of candid
Now you've gone away
You were almost honest, almost
Living alone, falling from grace
I want to atone but there's just empty space
I can't face tomorrow, now you're not coming back
Walked off in the night and just left me the tracks
I question your call by the tone of your voice
I know I should hang up but I don't have a choice
It happened that night when you told me to go
Don't ask who's to blame, I don't know

Too bad!!One of the best drummers!!R.I.P.
i agree
R.I.P.
Those 3 first songs from Cryptic Writings are god level. Trust, Almost Honest and Use The Man are my favorite Megadeth songs.
I saw Megadeth last year in Austin. Outstanding!
This is a band that evolves era to era.
absolutely love this whole album as most megadeth fans wouldnt say, love songs like use the man, sin, and the distentegrators
+Ironjayden Taylor i like trust here, dont you like it?
+Ironjayden Taylor One of my favorite albums from Megadeth. I also love TRUST. What a great main riff!!!

use the man is one of their best songs and a personal favorite
Love the bassline going with the vocals simultaneously. Has such a haunting effect, imo.
When your in the shower or doing some random thing and start singing this song, you know it’s deep.

me too
its like jesse pinkman
lol bassists cut their hair first. first newsted, then ellefson. except david grew back the long hair
newsted grew it back out for a bit I think when he was with ozzy

Sólo mentí un poquito
Cuando dije que te necesitaba
Tu estiraste la verdad
Cuando dijiste que sabías
No puedo creerlo
No hay nada que decir
Fui casi honesto
Casi
Viviendo solo
No soporto este lugar
Son las 4
Y todavía puedo verte la cara
Yo era casi puro
Cuando te dije te quiero
Tu fuiste semi sincera
Cuando dijiste moriría por ti
Fuimos medio inocentes
Y ahora te largaste
Fuiste casi honesta
Casi
Viviendo solo, cayendo de la gracia
Quiero armonizar, pero sólo hay espacio vacio
No puedo encarar el mañana, tu no vas a volver
Te fuiste en la noche, y sólo me dejaste las huellas
Cuestioné tu llamada, por el tono de tu voz
Se que debo colgar, pero no tengo opción
Sucedió esa noche cuándo tu me dijiste vete
No preguntes a quién culpar, no lo sé.
