    Great Canadian Band.
    His relative had cancer and it was for her he gave the live performance.

    Triumph did not have a song with a negative vibe to it. Every song was positive by design. Gil Moore and Rik Emmett the two principle writers felt there was enought negative in the world and their music should be an escape from that, and to be something that lifts a person up. Magic Power is a song about just that. "She climbs into bed,
    She pull the covers overhead
    And she turns her little radio on
    She's has a rotten day
    So she hopes the DJ's gonna play her favorite song
    It makes her feel much better,
    Brings her closer to her dreams
    A little magic power makes it better that it seems"

    Until you have done the US Festival version of this, you will truly never understand the gloriousness of Triumph in its finest moment. 11 Minutes of Unadulterated Superior Musical Talent, who that day blew away, Ozzy, Scorpions, Judas Priest, Van Halen etc. who were all at their peaks.

    This song has the potential to (if you let it) bring you to your feet and find your inner strength, motivate you, fill you with inspiration and determination to carry on and keep pushing on ever forward. I was 20, married and had 1 child, when this song came out and it was songs like this one that helped me through a really rough patch. I honestly don't know what I would've done without music in my life, at times, it's all I had. Thanks for this awesome reaction, it truly is a great song!

I'm surprised I haven't heard of them, I see from Google that they're a Canadian hard rock band formed in 1975 and this song is from the early 80s. I think I will check them out on RUclips. It's a great title and yes, you're right, guys, it is motivational and does make you feel good, which is just what we need just now. Thanks so much for your reaction, enjoyed it as I always do. Take care and keep safe.

    Triumph was actually quite popular in the 80s. Lots of their songs, including this one, were played a lot on rock radio. They always drew comparison to Rush. Triumphs music is more straight ahead rock, as opposed to Rush, but Rik Emmett, singer and very underrated guitarist sounded a bit like Geddy Lee. Moreover, Triumph and Rush were both trios and both from the Toronto area of Canada. Always seemed like Triumph were living a bit in Rush’s shadow. But Triumph rocks.

    • @garytate3075
      @garytate3075 2 года назад

Rik Emmit is a once in a generation talent both vocally and as a guitar player. Gil Moore is also a fantastic vocalist and great drummer, and ML holds down the bass and keys. You could pick any song of the first five albums and play it and be like YES!

    Patrik hit the nail on the head- Triumph gives off the RUSH vibe bigtime. Between the vocals and the song structure and sound quality. Not to mention they’re both Canadian bands and there’s just something deliciously special about Canadian bands.. they truly have a knack for great music. I’ve been a huge RUSH fan for 40+yrs and Ive also been a Triumph fan for the bulk of those years. They are just GOOOOOOOD!!!!!😄👏🏻
    I’m SO pleased you gave them a try. I was really surprised when I saw you had reacted to them. I don’t know what made you choose them but I am SOOO glad (for you, and others) that you did. I hope you check out some other songs if not on the channel, in your personal time.
    I’d recommend:
    “Lay It On The Line”
    “A World Of Fantasy”
    Rock on!👋😘

    I discovered Led Zeppelin in July of 1979 and since then, I’ve had a TON of SECOND favorite bands; Purple, Doors, Eagles, Stones, Beatles, The Who, U2, Rush, Petty, Scorpions, UFO, Floyd, Crue, Sabbath just to name a few. Most of which I’ve seen in concert and so, in 1981, I bought this album on vinyl - it is a GREAT album! Preceding this album was “The Game” and following it was “Never Surrender”. Three excellent albums. In May of 1983, Steve Wozniak, the inventor and co-founder of Apple Computers had a 4 day festival in San Bernardino near Los Angeles called “The US Festival”. The lineup was; Quiet Riot, Motley Crue, Ozzy Osbourne, Judas Priest, Triumph, Scorpions and Van Halen. Going to the Heavy Metal night, Triumph WAS my second favorite band because of the passion in their music and Rik Emmet’s guitar playing and voice. They were a Canadien trio who was always being compared to Rush who used be compared to Led Zeppelin. I strongly suggest you preview, Triumph’s “Ordinary Man”, “Magic Power”, “Lay it on the Line”, “Hold On” and “Never Surrender”. The Scorpions took the show and then became my new second favorite band…ruclips.net/video/q0Ei-tZTDr0/видео.html

    As a teenager in the 70s and 80s this is one of the most underappreciated bands of our generation. People gave them crap because they thought they were rush lite. Great uplifting lyrics, solid musicianship from all members, Rick emmets, guitar, playing and vocals should put him on the podium of rock performers. They might not have the deepest epic catalog, but their best songs are some of the best songs ever composed.

    Great Band, very under rated in it's time, recommend to dive into more from them, check out "magic power" I think you will get it!

    Try Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush, Frank is one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

    Would love for you both to check out "Last Chance" by Shooting Star. It also has a great message like this one and it's also a really powerful and underappreciated song too. I think you both would enjoy it. Thanks for the awesome reaction.
