Really a great fucking hook. The chorus just popped in my head for no reason after 33 years or so. Looked it up and BAM! Fifth Angel. Not sure what else they did, but this is a great tune.
Brilliant Chorus. What I love about the 80's scene was it wasn't just glam or thrash. There were loads of mid range bands that were able to mix heaviness with accessible melodies and choruses.
What used to be called Us metal (american metal bands who didn't play neither glam nor thrash metal, but have a "classic"/"traditional" european heavy/power metal sound to it) is the best type of metal IMHO.
Black Trip, a short-lived newer band from about 10-15 years ago or so is a good one even though they're worship and nothing original, the musicians are veterans who've been releasing albums with other bands for years... Witch Cross - Fit For Fight (make sure you listen to the original or a 2018 - 2024 reissue and not the horrible sounding 2012 version which was the first time it got a CD edition so it's the most commonly found version online) or even Tokyo Blade on the rare occasion when they slowed down. @@roby6993
This brings back a lot of very, very old memories. I was 13 and an outcast and oppressed. I endured horrible things during my youth and this video was on Headbanger's Ball back in 89 which was my unholy baptism into hard rock or as it was called then Metal. I personally think that hard rock and metal have a lot in common, but Fifth Angel really made me smile with their crossover between hard rock and melodic metal. My best friend at the time was horrified. Everybody went and attacked me for loving them. I had threats against me if I bought their albums. This was what life was like for me then and still is now! As an act of rebellion I would crank this when I saw the video after it was on the old VHS you used to record onto. Back in the days before everything turned bad with music and it became non-music.
That's so awful! Religious or not, no one should go through that kind of abuse just because they love a rock band! I always knew the world was a shit place, greedy politics who want all the money to themselves, bankers making more money than they should then there's ignorant kids who don't care about anyone else and think their best at gaming and go reporting people just because their better than them! What happened to a society without all this shit going on!
Jack Stringer I know. It's still disgusting for me. I was always attacked and still am over some non-issue. If people can't handle that I love Germany including their soldiers in 2015 why can't they grow up! It's things like this- Fifth Angel, Germany, my love for England, my love for most people, that gets me attacked. For no good reason at all! Thank you for finally saying something nice about me on RUclips doesn't happen enough AT ALL! Much love to you Ben
Adina Damian You aren't kidding! I was fortunate to live all of the music and excesses of the 80s, and still survive! I'm not ashamed to say that if they ever invented a one way time machine back to the 80s, I'd be the first in line!
As a child of the 80s, I have no shame in saying if I could go back, I would in a heartbeat! And Fifth Angel was the best band NOBODY heard of. They should have been as big as any of the Metal bands of the day IMO!
I agree. I still love this music and search out new releases from surviving bands. Newer generations try to do this sound and always come up short (they can't separate their newer influences out).
You got the nobody heard of part right, 1st tie ive listened to them or heard of them right now, so many bands from back then id prob love but just never heard of them
@@ausman05 Yep, even back in the day I came across them more or less by accident. I bought a cassette EP that had a few tracks each from FIfth Angel and Sanctuary's Refuge Denied. I loved Sanctuary so much that this band grew on me.
Metal Genres Come and Go but absolutely Nothing Beats 80's Metal ! And Yea they're from my neck of the woods from Bellevue Washington. Also doesn't the Blonde Guitarist remind anyone of Swedish Guitarist Yngwie J Malmsteen ?
This album and the band for that matter is criminally underrated. A friend of mine Jim Dofka just did the guitar work on the latest album When Angels Kill and it is also fantastic.
One of my favorite albums its just so perfect not to soft not to hard not to heavy just perfectly balance and so freaking catchy and melodic i wish they whould of done more albums whit this line up especialy after this album
Tonight (09/18/24) is the first time I ever heard this song and of this band. Loved this song right from the start and it brought me right back to those times! I was 13 in 1980 when heavy metal was still underground. Hard rock had been around for a decade, but metal, in the likes of Dokken, Maiden, Priest, Metallica weren't played on many stations. I remember hearing some critics saying that metal won't last and will die in a few years. How much more wrong could they be?!? I am so happy I was there to see the rise of metal to mainstream. It's a grey area between hard rock and metal, but who cares! I just love this stuff and going to have to check more of these guys out!
There's be no 80s metal without the 70s. Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, UFO, Black Sabbath, Thin Lizzy, AC/DC, Rush, Judas Priest and Nazareth ALL paved the way.
Ah.......Kendall Bechtel and his absolute killer talented guitar work. In 1989 I did not want a replacement for the mighty James Byrd, especially after his contributions on their monster debut record. I could not believe he had been fired because of greed on the parts of Ted and Ed. Kendall certainly delivers here though dont he? By the way that is Richard Stuverud on the drums in this video as Ken Mary had already left the band at this time. These cats reside in that same place as Riot, Crimson Glory, Icon, Leatherwolf, Malice, Savatage and TNT. Bands that are at the top of the heap in talent but are still virtually unknown, why is this?! Oh yeah..... its called the shitty crooked filled with worthless scum music biz. Oh well, they blast daily at my house.
Victor R. I agree on all fronts, so do most if not all Metal heads. Now....FA, their debut is much darker and way heavier (thanks to James Byrd). Probably the best Melodic Metal you will ever listen to. Get it (if you don't own it already). \m/
+Victor R. Fifth Angel is so far my favorite Melodic hardrock/ heavy metal band from the end of the 80's Ted Pilot's voice and the guitar work done by Kendall Bechtel KICKS Bud
Back in the days when music was still music, now we just have shit like band aid 30, Gabrielle Aplin, 1D, Justin Bieber, Glee and all the other hundreds of shit out there!
I was living with a GF and played this song around the house. I was totally in to the song. She asked me what it meant, and instead of answering what the band said, I said without thinking much, "It's just the way I look at us (our relationship)'. She went and immediately looked at the lyrics. We didn't last of course. But this song was dead on the money about it. I didn't intend to breakup at that point, but obviously there were wheels turning to protect myself. This is why this song means a lot to me. I stood and began to fight for myself.
Yep. He became an endodontist. The band has since reformed with the entire Time Will Tell lineup. They tried to get Ted to rejoin but he didn't think he could get his voice back in shape quickly enough, and he's also doing some kind of contracting with Boeing for something. That guitarist that looks like Yngwie (Kendall Bechtel) is now the lead singer and he is badass. Sounds so much like Dio it isn't funny.
@@corey8711 I'm not buying the not getting the voice back into shape bit. I think the real reason is that he has a thriving practice and just can't put the kind of time necessary for a reunion tour.
My dad once accidentally downloaded this video onto my old video MP3 player, and I never knew the band, but I always JAMMED. It's so nice to see it in such good quality on a larger screen, rather than a 1.3 inch pixelated screen! The childhood nostalgia is REAL!! 😭🔥🔥🎶
Wow! What an era of memories. It was a special carefree feeling back then. It also helped us metal heads to have so much talent to be proud of. I am so grateful to be from that time period. Hanging out with friends and listening to great hooks like this. Damn how I miss it.
It's a shame that the only "official" video for Fifth Angel is this. Granted, both albums were great. However, TWT was deifinitely more polished and commercial, as opposed to the masterpiece that was their debut album. Nearly 30 years on, I still feel that Fifth Angel (debut) is one of the best metal albums of the 80s if not one of the best debut metal albums EVER.
Should have been waaay bigger...Especially after that intro song for The Howard Stern Show at the height of hair metal...Solid sound, incredible Guitar work...Stands up today and forever...🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
The Production,,, The Melody,,,The Works,,, The Vocals,,, The Guitars ??????? Damn C'mon This today's Musics got a serious Problem !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If we Call That Musics ?
If you like Fifith Angel, you problably like (or will like): -Crimson Glory, -Queensrÿche, -Icon, -Gypsy Rose (Seattle/US - They split up in the fall of '89 when Gene $immon$ threatened legal action due to a Canadian band that he was managing having the same name), -Wings of Steel (a "new" band), -Sacred Warriors, -Pretty Maids, -Lizzy Borden,, -Scarlet Rayne, -Fates Warning, -Tony Martin / The Cage / BS with Martin, -Helstar, -Liege Lord, -Agent Steel, -Recon, -Haven...
The reason i am here is because i heard about this song from an interview of nevermore where jeff loomis and warrel dane mentioned this song NOT DISAPPOINTED ONE BIT
Listen closely, it's all around The way to make it I've always found is to Turn the thoughts inside Steal the strength that hides Follow feelings to make the climb Intuitions can tow the line, through the Bars that would not break To the great escape All alone in a change, may be a lonely place Everything is so strange in this race Time will tell, stand and begin to fight for yourself Time will tell anyway Time will tell, only the strong can take it so well Time will tell anyway Only time will tell Take a flame to ignite a try Indecision won't satisfy, all the Choices must be made When your hand is laid In the end there may be some pain Before you're back on your feet again, but it Always comes out right When you've won your fight All alone in a change, may be a lonely place Everything is so strange in this race Time will tell, stand and begin to fight for yourself Time will tell anyway Time will tell, only the strong can take it so well Time will tell anyway Time will tell, stand and begin to fight for yourself Time will tell anyway Time will tell, only the strong can take it so well Time will tell anyway Only time will tell Only time will tell Only time will tell Only time will tell
When I saw this video many years ago, I thought it was Bon Jovi for a few seconds because I thought the singer looked a bit like Jon Bon with a similar hairstyle and the melodic style of the music. Then I noticed that it sounded so much more metal than Bon Jovi which put an end to my initial impression of it being them. Needless to say, Fifth Angel gained a new fan that day.
This one is not the best of their songs. This one taken from their second album. But the first their album is one of the best in heavy metal history! I have both their albums on LP.
The band has recently reformed with the entire Time Will Tell lineup. They tried to get Ted to rejoin but he didn't think he could get his voice back in shape quickly enough, and he's also doing some kind of contracting with Boeing for something. That guitarist that looks like Yngwie (Kendall Bechtel) is now the lead singer and he is badass. Sounds so much like Dio it isn't funny.
This is why I love metal (and RnR in general) You take a completely shitty band like 5 angel,I mean they suck and were doing nothing new and just following the trend, the intro riff has been done to death. And then you take an original band like PanterA or AIC that started out doing "weak metal" but then realized fuck trends and following the crowd and became 2 of the greatest bands OAT!
Whoever mans this site epic records didnt promote your band. I was a student at newport high bellevue 87-90.. had i known of bechtel wouldve asked for guitar lessons. The epic execs should be sued for not doing their jobs. Say hello to kendall bechtel hes still rocking!
Check them out their first two albums are great the first one his more metal them im 2018 they put out new album whit the guitar player pn vocals and last year theiy put out a new album this time whit a new siinget also great but the first 2 albumz are clazsic master peice

@BlaiseRogers My friend, the word "awesome" can hardly describe this CD.
Corina bell 😊 music.
I would rank Fifth Angel up there with Malice, Dokken, Judas Priest, Motley Crue and Ratt. This is some of the best '80s Metal you will ever hear.

Kendall is a much better guitarist than any of those bands had IMO.

'80s metal definitely ruled....But little did any of us know or see what was coming just over the horizon to essentially decimate all these bands.

Dude I'm totally grunge but I listened other kind of rock music because I love rock'roll.

The beginning makes me think of Big City Night of scorpions!
sophie pascal Big City Nights at the very start then kinda reminds me of Scorps Bad Boys Running Wild as it kicks in. 🤘
@@kevinalb1085 VERY true. I used to get them confused on the radio for that reason. 😊
The reason i am here is because i heard about this song from an interview of nevermore where jeff loomis and warrel dane mentioned this song NOT DISAPPOINTED ONE BIT
Listen closely, it's all around
The way to make it I've always found is to
Turn the thoughts inside
Steal the strength that hides
Follow feelings to make the climb
Intuitions can tow the line, through the
Bars that would not break
To the great escape
All alone in a change, may be a lonely place
Everything is so strange in this race
Time will tell, stand and begin to fight for yourself
Time will tell anyway
Time will tell, only the strong can take it so well
Time will tell anyway
Only time will tell
Take a flame to ignite a try
Indecision won't satisfy, all the
Choices must be made
When your hand is laid
In the end there may be some pain
Before you're back on your feet again, but it
Always comes out right
When you've won your fight
All alone in a change, may be a lonely place
Everything is so strange in this race
Time will tell, stand and begin to fight for yourself
Time will tell anyway
Time will tell, only the strong can take it so well
Time will tell anyway
Time will tell, stand and begin to fight for yourself
Time will tell anyway
Time will tell, only the strong can take it so well
Time will tell anyway
Only time will tell
Only time will tell
Only time will tell
Only time will tell
ESE ES MI AMIGO LORENZO ADRIAN MI HERMANO DE PANAMA. UN ABRAZO CON TODO EL CORAZON AMIGO QUERIDO. TE AMO YO!
When I saw this video many years ago, I thought it was Bon Jovi for a few seconds because I thought the singer looked a bit like Jon Bon with a similar hairstyle and the melodic style of the music. Then I noticed that it sounded so much more metal than Bon Jovi which put an end to my initial impression of it being them.
Needless to say, Fifth Angel gained a new fan that day.
Awesome! To be a teenager in the 80s again.
MTV used 2 play it all the time Headbangers Ball Fifth angel rocks live thiz vid since day one metal rules!🤘🏻👨🏻🎸🔥
They are playing again IN Narvik - Northern Norway this summer!
4 years since I last saw them live on a festival at my homeplace
Why haven’t I heard this until today. That’s crazy.
Love it. 👏🤘
When will it hit a million views? Only Time Will Tell.
✌️
This one is not the best of their songs. This one taken from their second album. But the first their album is one of the best in heavy metal history! I have both their albums on LP.
The band has recently reformed with the entire Time Will Tell lineup. They tried to get Ted to rejoin but he didn't think he could get his voice back in shape quickly enough, and he's also doing some kind of contracting with Boeing for something. That guitarist that looks like Yngwie (Kendall Bechtel) is now the lead singer and he is badass. Sounds so much like Dio it isn't funny.
@@corey8711 Kendall Bechtel quit the band this year.....
This is why I love metal (and RnR in general) You take a completely shitty band like 5 angel,I mean they suck and were doing nothing new and just following the trend, the intro riff has been done to death. And then you take an original band like PanterA or AIC that started out doing "weak metal" but then realized fuck trends and following the crowd and became 2 of the greatest bands OAT!
Good music,,,this send me back to those days when I was a youth
these guys are Alpha. the guitars are outstanding!
Excellent. Right up there with Dokken and Ratt!!!
Criminally underrated 80's rock band.
Fifth Angel is classified as melodic heavy metal.
Is it me or this band has the best sound of the 80s
Thank you all for your very kind words! ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
You are very welcome good sirs.
LOVE YOUUU
Whoever mans this site epic records didnt promote your band. I was a student at newport high bellevue 87-90.. had i known of bechtel wouldve asked for guitar lessons. The epic execs should be sued for not doing their jobs. Say hello to kendall bechtel hes still rocking!
