You stumbled upon probably the most talented of heavy metal bands, and the one with arguably the best singer. Queensryche were incredibly versatile and singe Geoff Tate is one without parallel in rock music.
YES! to the comment below. This song is a Queensryche outlier. Most of their incredible music is heavier, but very melodic with great lyrics. They are very versatile in what they can do musically. They're "classified" as progressive metal, but really are in a class all their own! Please listen to the studio version of "Silent Lucidity" with orchestral arrangement. It's a truly beautiful song about lucid dreaming. Also try, as mentioned below, "Take Hold of the Flame" live in Tokyo 1984. Plus: "Another Rainy Night" "Anybody Listening?" "Eyes of a Stranger" "Breaking the Silence" ""Walk in the Shadows" You won't be disappointed, and I wouldn't be surprised if you fall in love with them!
Guitarist Chris DeGarmo was the heart of Queensryche in their rise to the top... it was a sad moment when he opted to leave the band he had founded and guided since the early 80's in 1998 (He hasn't been involved in music since he contributed to Queensryche's 2003 album 'Tribe'). He wrote this song around 1990 for his young daughter about dreams she was having. Queensryche is famed for being a heavy metal band... but they did have subtle songs like this one... 'Anybody listening?' ... 'Della Brown' ... 'I will remember'. Their 1994 album 'Promised land' was mostly an acoustic record... dark, subtle songs like 'Bridge'... 'Out of mind' ... 'Lady Jane'... 'Someone else' ... the epic song 'Promised land'. The heavy songs include - 'Eyes of a stranger' ... 'Take hold of the flame' ... 'Walk in the shadows' ... 'Empire' ... 'Sign of the times'... 'Revolution calling'... 'Damaged'... 'Jet city woman'... 🤘🤘🔥🔥
Thank you. I've been listening nearly constantly for two days. Years ago, probably around the time of this song, read "Creative Dreams". I understand the idea came from the book. I can't find it, had to reorder it. I'll be checking into the albums you listed. Thank you
My favorite band and their album, from EP to Empire album. Cool Geoff, Chris "the peak of the band" DeGarmo, the sexy the whip Michael Wilton, Eddie and Rock, these five amazing people are true gentlemen, great band and cool people on and off the camera 😊
If you want to see a heavier queensryche with some of geoff tates highest notes you should react to queen of the reich or take hold of the flame live in Tokyo 1984. The difference will shock you
Is that an E11 blaster on your bookshelf behind you? Love that you have huge collection of CD's and DVD's. I can't quite make it out but is that Cody or Rex on the face of what looks like a collectors steel book or lunch box on the shelf below the blaster? Sorry but I got distracted as my inner Star Wars nerd kicked in when I saw those items... moving along now. This song is full of subtle little moments of genius where the music compliments the lyrics. Great reaction.
Now that you know you've enjoyed it, you have to check out the official video. The production with the acoustic 6/12 string and electric lead guitar, orchestral tracks and drumming dynamics are incredible!
IMO, this is one of the most beautiful songs of all time. This live performance, while amazing, is very stripped down from the studio version as the name unplugged suggests. You really need to check out their Operation Mindcrime album. It’s a concept that tells a story from the first to last song and is kinda at the peak of their creativeness as a band. I thought it was the most amazing thing I’d ever heard at that point in my life and it holds up very well even today.
Come check out my 1st ever Live stream here on Reaction Diaries tonight at 6pm EST and you can request whatever you want to hear! Here's the link. Hope to see you there! ruclips.net/user/liveVzslmZ0RQS0
You aren’t wrong about queensryche music. This is a stand alone classic song that isn’t representative of the rest of their heavy music. It is incredible as well but if that kind of music isn’t your cup of tea you may not like it. But SL is one of the all time great songs. This was not the right version to hear but it is very beautiful with the muted acoustic sound. The guitar solo on normal live performances or the studio version is simply amazing
NOPE, not at all! I AM CLUELESS To heavier music. TOTALLY. I recall hearing the bands name, but never paid them any attention. As for the "Unplugged"- Totally oblivious. Didn't pay attention.
Read the book "Creative Dreaming", Chris DeGarmo got the idea from the book (and his daughter's nightmares). As we sleep memories are processed out of short-term memory to long-term, linked to a more extensive set of associated memories; linking knowledge, conclusions, other memories, etc. Seems possible that as rhese memories are accessed, some make their way into dreams. Through taking control, we're about to learn how to slay (or tame) the dragons that visit our dreams.

WOW! Nice reaction to this beautiful song by Queensryche. I really really enjoyed it. And it was a great pleasure watching it ❤️ This MTV Unplugged Queensryche Session is just incredible. What a performance. I remember back these Days when it was showing on MTV. (Yes, I'm a very old Bean! ^^ from 1969) And I was just blowin away. Never seen or heard something more beautiful like this. Queensryche - I will remember - they played this Song at the same night, is my favourite track from this show. About Queensryche in general. Master Lyrics.

It also shows, what a great Actor Geoff Tate always was. He's just a Genius. He lived his Song's. Btw... Listening to their Studio Records definitely worth it. So many wonderful Sound's and Samples.

LOL- I get that. Especially now that I'm doing reactions! Also-More great content on my main Reaction channel, "The Speak Easy Lounge"! I hope you'll come check it out!
Silent Lucidity is one of Queensryches Ballads, but nevertheless i consider their music more as rock music, not metal. But this might be a matter of opinion? Or not? i dont't know for sure. How ever. Geoff Tate has one of the best voices i have ever heard in my life.
I don't know why people suggest starting with this song, it's the most un-Queensryche song in my opinion. It's a good song, but it was a hard pill for me to swallow as I was already a huge fan by the time this was released.
@@Ilikeryche Because if you knew The Lady Wore Black, and how Queensryche were capable of a ballad as far back as their EP, a song like Silent Lucidity four albums later - and given the large variety of music they showed us in between - shouldn't have been much of a shock. They also gave us Roads to Madness on Warning. Not only that, most other heavy bands gave us gentle songs. Priest gave us Last Rose of Summer. Rainbow gave us Rainbow Eyes.
Thanks Scott! Can you share a link? I'd like to check it out on my own time...Maybe you can join us next Friday for the Live Stream on my other channel! It's a lot of fun and we all chill out, chat and listen to music together! I just finished this week's live, (Had prior plans for last night, so we were live tonight) The Lives are on my primary channel, "The Speak Easy Lounge", check it out when you get a chance.

I'll try to get that link to you and try to get on your other channel. Also I appreciate that you will respond to subscribers lot of the other reaction channels don't do that they just want the patrons I'm kind of computer illiterate so bear with me but thank you👍
@@nevermore5168 No worries, I love finding new music! New to me, anyway. I may not love it all, but I am finding so much great stuff out there that I would never have found on my own. Take your time, I'm not going anywhere! Hope you like my other channel! Cheers!
Listen to take hold of the flame live in Tokyo and killing words and I will remember both on Mtv unplugged in my opinion Geoff Tate has the best voice of all time
I know this is a bit late, but your surprise, unfortunately, doesn't surprise me. The label "Metal" is very deceiving. Queensryche is more Melodic Progressive Metal; there are many subgenres. If you'd like to hear the other end of his voice then check out - Queensryche - Live in Tokyo 1984 - "Take Hold Of The Flame". If you haven't already.
You stumbled upon probably the most talented of heavy metal bands, and the one with arguably the best singer.
Queensryche were incredibly versatile and singe Geoff Tate is one without parallel in rock music.
Most awesome song from that decade Thankyou Queensryche
Chris DeGarmo's acoustic guitar is just exquisite.
Thanks for stopping in Shannon!
I miss Chris. Seems like he was the glue that held the band together.
32 years later, I still get Goosebumps
YES! to the comment below. This song is a Queensryche outlier. Most of their incredible music is heavier, but very melodic with great lyrics. They are very versatile in what they can do musically. They're "classified" as progressive metal, but really are in a class all their own!

"Another Rainy Night"
"Anybody Listening?"
"Eyes of a Stranger"

Yes, Queensryche, Take Hold of the Flame, live Tokyo 84!

OUR ROCK

I'll check it out!
Welcome to Seattle's Best ROCK.And we love are ROCK.
This came out just before we had our first child; it has always gotten to me in ways it is hard to explain.

Yep best vocalist ever..want your mind blown do take hold of the flame Tokyo live 1984 react to that
Welcome to Queensryche :)
Progressive metals Greatest singer
More like, top 3 rock/metal singer. Never seen such talent since Freddie Mercury.
Read the book "Creative Dreaming", Chris DeGarmo got the idea from the book (and his daughter's nightmares).

1.) Operation Mindcrime
2.) Empire

Saw them a couple of Times Live.
This Band was unbeatable good.
The DVD: Operation Livecrime shows this.
It also shows, what a great Actor Geoff Tate always was.
He's just a Genius.
He lived his Song's.
Btw...
Listening to their Studio Records definitely worth it.
So many wonderful Sound's and Samples.
Listen to it to a great sounding Headphone!
How they put all these beautiful Sounds from left to the right.
In the background and than back 8n both ears.
What next too listen to?
1.) Silent Lucidity (Studio Version)
2.) Take Hold of the Flame (Tokyo 1984 - it shows what Range Geoff Tate has -the difference between Silent Lucidity and Take Hold of the Flame is unbelievable)
3.) Suite Sister Mary (taken from Operation Livecrime!)
4.) Please don't seperate Queensryche Songs! Talking about the Intro's and Outro's.) (Please keep them together-Waiting for 22 and my empty Room, for example)

At the End of the Song Silent Lucidity (Studio Version!)
It's a hint.
The only thing I would like to tell you is : BRAHMS.
Enough said... ^^
Let's see, if you will find out, what it really is!🥰
Another Fact is, Queensryche's near to Mozart.
Talking about this Vocal Jumps by Geoff Tate.
From low to the highest Notes.
Bariton?
Nobody knows...
Queensryche's Double Guitar Solo's is another thing you should listen carefully too.
Because it's not about how fast or how quick Guitarist are.
Or how long a Guitar Solo really is.
It just only has to be beautiful.
A Melody.
And what the heck a song really means.
Feeling it.
Feeling a Song.
Harmonies...
That's another big Thing about Queensryche.
Scott Rockenfield on drums with Eddie Jackson of Bass Guitar.
This one perfect Rhythm Duo.
Same with Michael Wilton and Chris DeGarmo on Guitar's.
Just playing Music - TOGETHER!
That's it, what is all about.
And believe it, or not...
If you will a thousand times to Queensryche's Music...
And you will listen to it a thousand times more...
You will find something totally new!
You never really heard before.
And that's it, what's makes them so special.
Pure MAGIC!❤️

Try Queensryches I will remember
Absolutely Amazing Song Do yourself a favor and watch the Official Video. Just Brilliant.
NO ONE CAN JUDGE THIS BAND UNTIL YOU'VE SEEN THEM LIVE, THE BEST NEXT TO THE ORIGINAL JOURNEY LINEUP LIVE,
I bet! I love Live concerts! Used to go all the time as a teenager. We had the best concert hall in my hometown, and got all the greatest shows!
I don't know why people suggest starting with this song, it's the most un-Queensryche song in my opinion. It's a good song, but it was a hard pill for me to swallow as I was already a huge fan by the time this was released.
The Lady Wore Black was on their EP.
How can this have been a difficult pill to swallow?
@@Incomudro1963 I explained why in my statement, not sure what theire EP or The Lady wore Black have to do with anything.
@@Ilikeryche Because if you knew The Lady Wore Black, and how Queensryche were capable of a ballad as far back as their EP, a song like Silent Lucidity four albums later - and given the large variety of music they showed us in between - shouldn't have been much of a shock.
They also gave us Roads to Madness on Warning.
Not only that, most other heavy bands gave us gentle songs.
Priest gave us Last Rose of Summer.
Rainbow gave us Rainbow Eyes.
@@Incomudro1963 Please study my original comment, until you understand it.
You need to listen to jet City woman by queensryche if you want to hear more Rock
Suite sister mary from there album "Operation Mind Crime" that's there opys in my mind . Just throwing that out. Its Heavy metal but beautiful🤘🌹

I'll try to get that link to you and try to get on your other channel. Also I appreciate that you will respond to subscribers lot of the other reaction channels don't do that they just want the patrons I'm kind of computer illiterate so bear with me but thank you👍
@@nevermore5168 No worries, I love finding new music! New to me, anyway. I may not love it all, but I am finding so much great stuff out there that I would never have found on my own. Take your time, I'm not going anywhere! Hope you like my other channel! Cheers!
Progressive highly inspired by Pink Floyd
I didn't know that. Thank you! I love learning from you guys!
@@REACTIONDIARIES whaoo thank you for the appreciation
Official video way to go
Glad you liked it David!
Try "Take Hold of the Flame" live-Japan for a heavier song.Also the album version of Lucidity is a better recorded.Great review.
Thanks for the suggestion! Care to share a link?
Any chance you can do the studio version?
Possibly! I need to do some more soon. Thanks for the suggestion!
Subdued.
Join me in the Live chat at 10:45am EST! (10 minutes from now)!
every heavy band does a classic ballad.myb try
Good reaction
Thanks John!
From what I know of Queensryche, which is very little. They normally are Heavy Metal. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though.
More progressive than metal IMO
Speaking of pushing. I've got a little nudge for you on the next Live. 😁😉
I'm ready! Sorry no Live tonight. I wasn't feeling great. Wednesday though!
@@REACTIONDIARIES Yeah I was wondering about it. I'll be in Wednesday hopefully.
Listen to take hold of the flame live in Tokyo and killing words and I will remember both on Mtv unplugged in my opinion Geoff Tate has the best voice of all time
I know this is a bit late, but your surprise, unfortunately, doesn't surprise me. The label "Metal" is very deceiving. Queensryche is more Melodic Progressive Metal; there are many subgenres. If you'd like to hear the other end of his voice then check out - Queensryche - Live in Tokyo 1984 - "Take Hold Of The Flame". If you haven't already.
Thanks for the suggestion, Paul!
You might want to hear the studio version with special effect as well ruclips.net/video/jhat-xUQ6dw/видео.html
Gosh.... What metal? It's written right there - "MTV UNPLUGGED". Can't you read?
YES I CAN. NO, I DIDN"T. It was a senior moment, ok? lol.
@@REACTIONDIARIES MTV unplugged format means ONLY acoustic instruments. So every song will sound there like a folk song, very soft.
@@saboteur1001 WOW! You seem like a dick.
