    Its physically impossible, as displayed by David, to not air drum the double stops leading into the chorus when hearing this song. Great reaction, great band, great vibes.

    My sister died last year. I’ll say, from mental illness, rather than spell it out. I felt destroyed as I drove the hour and a half home from the hospital. When I started feeling a little more composed, I turned on the radio and after the last part of an ad, this song came on. I had heard it before but had never paid much attention to the lyrics. As he sang, I really listened. I became hysterical and had to pull off the toll road. I sat there on the side of the highway and put it on repeat on Spotify and bawled my eyes out.
    I will forever more be very connected to this song.
    Let the wind carry you home
    Blackbird, fly away
    May you never be broken again
    The fragile cannot endure
    The wrecked and the jaded, a place so impure
    The static of this cruel world
    Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day
    Long before they've seen their day
    Let the wind carry you home
    Blackbird, fly away
    May you never be broken again
    Beyond the suffering you've known
    I hope you find your way
    May you never be broken again
    Ascend, may you find no resistance
    Know that you made such a difference
    And all you leave behind will live to the end
    The cycle of suffering goes on
    But the memories of you stay strong
    Someday I too will fly and find you again

  • @azureander5487
    @azureander5487 3 года назад +22

    I was enjoying your take on the song just verbally, but THEN you go and totally blow my mind with that piano run, and you did it so effortlessly. I am highly impressed

  • @TheHeath68
    @TheHeath68 3 года назад +67

    YES!! and Myles was sick during this performance just think if he was healthy!! The Amsterdam version has better vocals. But you HAVE to check out Words Darker than their Wings live at the Royal Albert Hall ft the Parallex Orchestra! It'll blow your mind!! Myles vocal range is incredible and you'll get to hear Mark Tremonti sing too ;)

  • @patfix
    @patfix 3 года назад +31

    The name comes from a bridge on Alter Road in Detroit, near the place where Mark Tremonti (guitarist) grew up. He wasn’t allowed to cross that bridge from his parents because on the other side was a ‘bad’ neighborhood.

    • @neznarfdvd
      @neznarfdvd 3 года назад +3

      I also like the metaphor that it's not only a bridge separating the 2 sides of the town but it's the bridge that brings them both together.

    • @MoonriseBlue
      @MoonriseBlue 3 года назад +5

      And when Tremonti and company were disbanding Creed and starting up this new band, the name was a bit of a metaphor for going out and taking a chance, crossing into the unknown, etc.

  • @Liimbo
    @Liimbo 3 года назад +20

    The picture on Mark Tremonti's guitar is Dimebag Darrell (guitarist for Pantera). He put the picture on his favourite guitar shortly after he passed away.

  • @dcinsc

    From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for appreciating this band for who they are.

    @k1weber 3 года назад +13

    Now that is a proper reaction video. You have done your homework on the artist/band up front unlike so many other reviewers. You also added great contextual info duirng the video with your pop-ups. I love Alter Bridge and hope you do more of their videos, espeically anything from their live performance at Royal Albert Hall which was done with an orchestra. Tremendous DVD to get.

    Some Alter Bridge suggestions: "Watch over you" live (Billboard Studio), Cry of Achiles & Calm the Fire
    Some Architects suggestions: Memento Mori, Gone With The Wind, Dead Butterflies

    Do „In Loving Memory (Live @ Amsterdam) by Alter Bridge. Mark wrote this song after his mother passed away. Seeing Mark fighting against his tears while playing this song is just pure emotion.

    • @kurtshepherd2801

  • @informalistabrasil3491
    @informalistabrasil3491 2 года назад +1

    I followed you at the moment that you start playing. The best reaction I've ever seen in this genre.

  • @ScottishDayZer
    @ScottishDayZer Год назад

    Why have I only just seen this video? I've been a fan of the band since they were formed. Lucky enough to meet the guys on several occasions and yeah Myles is truly one of the most humble guys I've ever met. Even when I was a kid, I was 17 when I first saw the band and a year later I was at their next show in Scotland and he walked up to me and started talking, he remembered me because I'd given him a gift the previous year. That told me all I needed to know about Myles right there.
    But away from the band, your piano work during the video...wow. I was eating my dinner whilst watching the video and you made me stop and just say wow! You nailed it. Alter Bridge for me is all about stories, emotion and melodies.

  • @BloodMagic_1

    YT Channel Music Shed with amazing David Morgan RULES! I became your new fan from the Czech Republic when I was listening more your videos. I am recommending you to react on band Periphery, song Ragnarok or any other from this band, pls next time, I believe as Periphery's fan that it will be good for everybody here :) ;) Btw I adore Myles Kennedy's performances and everything in Alter Bridge, Mark Tremonti is also really awesome guitarist and musician.

  • @ChechoBenavides
    @ChechoBenavides 3 года назад +1

    Amazing song, great analysis and piano chord progressions

  • @PlanaarisA7X
    @PlanaarisA7X 3 года назад +36

    I also would highly recommend Words Darker than their Wings (from RAB), its an incredible performance.
    I don't mean to be negative, but this is actually considered to be one of his weaker performances - this was at the end of a tour and in some places you can definitely hear it in his voice - though he still delivers amazing passion into the song. Another great reaction though!

  • @Eleanor8965
    @Eleanor8965 3 года назад +2

    O man. Alter bridge is something special. Miles Kennedy is such a great singer. The band as a whole is great but Miles Kennedy really makes it something special.

  • @nickvaldes9833
    @nickvaldes9833 3 года назад +8

    I’m so glad you reacted to this song. Easily their best song and Myles Kennedy has one of the most gifted voices in rock. They have a song called “watch over you” that is tremendous.

  • @royaldom1399
    @royaldom1399 3 года назад +3

    Without any shadow of a doubt my favourite song, it's the perfect song and no matter how many times I listen to it. It is still as emotional and as good as the first time I listened to it, the hair on the back of my neck still stands over a decade later. Perfection. You'll love anything of AB. But I would love to see you listen to 'The end is here' by them. Another of my favourites.

  • @SophiaAphrodite
    @SophiaAphrodite 3 года назад +1

    I saw Myles and the Conspirators not too long ago at some small casino in Nebraska and Slash stole that show he was playing 5 minute guitar solos in EVERY song. One song he played a solos for 12 minutes! One of the best concerts I have seen.

  • @liamevans9815
    @liamevans9815 3 года назад +1

    What you may not know about Myles Kennedy is, before he joined Alter Bridge he was a guitar teacher while he was in another band called Mayfield Four.

    You sir, are the kind of person I wish was my music teacher. I self taught myself basic guitar/bass/drums and was involved in my high-school rock band program from grade 7-11 (very small town highschool) and you seem like the kind of person that I could have 1, learned a lot from, and 2, not given up after a large number of other people basically ruined performing and even just playing to my self, for me. I recently bought another guitar, and trying to pick it back up again, but after almost 7 years of not playing good lord I'm back at square 1. Love these videos. Very glad I stumbled upon you.

    @bcog9519 3 года назад +1

    Alter Bridge are one of the most sublime bands in existence when it comes to making music that have a deep, meaningful impact with their messages conveyed in their songs. Their song “In Loving Memory” helped me during the loss of my grandfather and still reduces me to tears to this day 8 years on. Excellent reaction as always David! 🙏🏼

    I went to go and see them live in Manchester a couple of years ago and all I'm going to say is my cousin is a Christian and he got me into Alter Bridge seeing them live is completely different than listening to them on a CD I would happily pay good money again to see them all over the country
