Amazing song, amazing lineup, AMAZING SINGER! I like Deris and he write some great songs.......but damn I miss Kiske! And also Kai Hansen!! Kai and Weikath were really great songwriters and they complement each other very well. Kai with the raw power metal style, and Weikath with his darker sound and atmospheric sadness. Ingo had this destructive style on the drums, that non of the replacements have been able to copy. He was simply the best 🙏 Grosskopf might be one of the best bass players in the world, only surpassed by Steve Harris and a few others. And then there was Kiske who is, along with Bruce Dickinson, the best vocalist on the planet ✨
Ingo Schwichtenberg war ein sehr guter Schlagzeuger und er hat wohl die Gene bei meinem Bruder und meiner Tochter, sie ist jetzt 22 vereebt bekommen. Sie spielt auch seit sie 10 Jahre alt ist Schlagzeug. Sie ist sehr gut. Sie ist meine Tochter und ich bin Susann Schwichtenberg. Liebe Grüße ❤
That's amazing, he was an amazing drummer, never seen him live because I wasn't even born yet, but I've seen Halloween live in my country last summer, amazing concert with my 3 favourite singers
It's unbelievable how in this live performance Kiske succeeds in reaching the higher notes as good as on the record and those who speak bad about him don't really have a clue about hard is to sing like that while headbanging and running up and down the stage always keeping enough breath to reach the higher notes of this song. Would you all be able to do as good as he does?
Vocally, Kiske is better today than Bruce. But, Kiske's stage presence kinda sucks. Bruce is a winner in terms of stage presence and fronting the band... Still love both of em \m/
Michael Kiske's voice has something unique..kai hansen also has a unique voice.. There is no "ride the sky" wirhout Hansen. That’s the beauty of metal.. So much talent in one band.. And now they are 7 haha
holy fck , this is a way to sing Ride the Sky!!!!! I still think this song belongs to Kai's voice, but Kiske can sing whatever he fcking pleases and he does amazing.
Michael Kiske è stato semplicemente PERFETTO, Ride The Sky è perfetta per la sua ugola! Un vero peccato non ci sia una versione HQ, o che comunque non l'abbiano ri-registrata , come per Victim of Fate o Starlight.
Jeez, to think of all the hardships between these guys in the early 90s. They looked so great on stage together back then, they were enjoying themselves greatly.
no hay voz como la de kiske, es de lo mejor que se ha escuchado, pero curiosamente con esta cancion en especial pasa algo realmente asombroso. NADIE COMO KAI para cantarla. por mas que escucho versiones de ride the sky con kiske no encuentro una sola que sea mejor que cualquiera que se escuche de kai. sea en la era gammaray o era helloween. es mi opinion
This is awesome...the old Helloween songs are difficult for even good vocalists to sing. Kai may not have been that great of a vocalist,but he composed some challenging vocal melodies. Ralf Scheepers does a KILLER version of "Ride the Sky." Kiske does a fine version here too.
are you crazy??? where is weiki??? eagle fly free, keeper of the seven keys, how many tears, guardians, a tale that wasn´t right, rise and fall, dr stein, starlight, cry for freedom, heavy metal is the law..... hansen+weikath=helloween
it pains m to say this but kai does actually sing this song better than kiske. I am the biggest kiske fan in the world, the man is just in a league of his own when it comes to voacalists. The only reason I say kai sings it better is bexause this song was written for someone with a gritty voice and that is kai. kiske's voice is so pure and clear. Amd I'm sorry but anyone who even compares Andy sory a$$ deris to either kai or kiske don't jave a clue about vocalists period. Deris is awful! He sounds like a dying cat in a hailstorm!
+kathy reed Both Kiske and Hansen are great vocalists with powerful voices, but when Kiske joined the band he gave Helloween a lift. There is nothing Kiske can't sing if he puts his mind to it. Is he better than Kai Hansen at singing Ride the Sky? Well the quality of this video clip is not that brilliant which is the reason why I can't pass judgement on that question. However from what I can see, Kiske actually does a good job here, he does hit those high notes well. On the other hand I always thought this is Kai Hansen song, written by the great man for himself - it fits his voice perfectly!
+kathy reed Right on sister - I couldn't agree more, just a shame there wasn't a reunion to celebrate 20 years of W.O.J with Michael, and Kai, but then it wouldn't be the same without Ingo (R.I.P)
I know every power-metal fan is in love (or has been in love) with Kiske, but I do think that Kai is a better vocalist. Kiske's voice may be prettier, but that doesn't make him a better singer. Hansen has a great technique, and that is undeniable.
Only one person sang this song better than kiske and that was the guy standing next to him who wrote it. Kai is still making amazing music today. He's the one who should get the praise. kiske wouldn't even have this song to sing if hansen didn't write it.
Honestly, I love Kiske but I think the level of brutality “Walls of Jericho” has, requires the dirty and gritty voice of Hansen rather the beautiful and crystal clear vocal attitude of Kiske.
Si no se hubiese marchado Kai, helloween hoy serían grandiosos... Pero no existiría Gamma Ray. Aunque Gamma nunca será como los Helloween de los keepers!!!
in this video you can see that they were really friends, now its just kiske/hansen.. maybe a hansen/weikath friendship for money in hellish rock tour, and markus/weikath anyway the escence of helloween its kai hansen, and kai + kiske in unisonic and gamma ray, its fucking amazing!
i love this one! specially with Kiske, Kisk is one of the Greatests Gods (Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford, etc...) but that song was made for Kai's voice (and by Kai), anyway, Kiske Still on the top!
@OathBird There are some things you don't understand and that's why there is no point in continuing this discussion. For example, using falsetto to reach very high notes is much easier that using chest or head voice. Thus whoever doesn't use falsetto for the highs is technically a better singer. Today both Bruce & Halford sound strained (forced) & Halford also sounds raspy. Bruce's screams are certainly not powerful anymore & amazing composer with the help of Harris, Smith & RoyZ sure
@OathBird Bruce's voice was pretty tired during 1985 from the extensive touring. It is evident on Live After Death. He was much better during the Piece Of Mind tour and during the '99-'01 (Brave New World) era. For me Kiske is technically a better vocalist, but both singers are amazing and 2 of my favorites...you should watch the "video comparison" between them (link on previous comment). By the way, Ozzy was very good in Black Sabbath but he is far from a great vocalist.
Let's just conclude that all three singers have very different styles - and the fact that Helloween never were very coordinated onstege... In MY opinion, Kai does this song the best. Kiske do the "Keeper..."-songs best, and Deris make his songs the best. Different albums, different styles, different singers. And that's about it.
Kiske's voice is sooo pure!!! Excellent!!!! Ride the sky!!!!
ingo is such a overlooked drummer and hes fallen in the shadows ... he was a freaking AWESOME drummer !!!
Ingo and Dave Lambardo owned metal in the 80s. Lars fucking sucks!
Kiske es otro mundo.. Único..
Que energía tenian todos, se notaba la pasión de cada uno...y bueno, la voz de Kiske simplemente de lo mejor que hay en el mundo incluso hoy en día...
Amazing song, amazing lineup, AMAZING SINGER! I like Deris and he write some great songs.......but damn I miss Kiske! And also Kai Hansen!! Kai and Weikath were really great songwriters and they complement each other very well. Kai with the raw power metal style, and Weikath with his darker sound and atmospheric sadness. Ingo had this destructive style on the drums, that non of the replacements have been able to copy. He was simply the best 🙏 Grosskopf might be one of the best bass players in the world, only surpassed by Steve Harris and a few others. And then there was Kiske who is, along with Bruce Dickinson, the best vocalist on the planet ✨
Fast forward to the present day
Kiske + Hansen = best helloween and power metal ever
Everybody have mentions about the singer, the guitarriste, but the Bass Player is awesome!!
The drummer is the best, RIP Ingo aka Machinegun drummer.
Wow!! Markus is the hell of an awesome bassist!!
귀한 비디오네
키스케가 부르니 노래가 더 사네 ♡
Did you hear this guy?

That's amazing, he was an amazing drummer, never seen him live because I wasn't even born yet, but I've seen Halloween live in my country last summer, amazing concert with my 3 favourite singers
what a flawless live performance, Ride the sky is hands down one of the best metal songs ever
It's unbelievable how in this live performance Kiske succeeds in reaching the higher notes as good as on the record and those who speak bad about him don't really have a clue about hard is to sing like that while headbanging and running up and down the stage always keeping enough breath to reach the higher notes of this song. Would you all be able to do as good as he does?
Its not Kiske that sings this song on the album
Its kai hansen =)
+Roberto Cagnetta look at bruce 57 and he's still running around the stage :P
Vocally, Kiske is better today than Bruce. But, Kiske's stage presence kinda sucks. Bruce is a winner in terms of stage presence and fronting the band...
Still love both of em \m/
I'm Your Subscriber Plus, Bruce is a lot older than Kiske who is still in his late 40s and hasn't done touring for about 20 years till 2010 or so.
I believe he was 20 years old when he sang this. Young and strong. He and Kai are the only ones who sing this well.
Best Helloween song ever.
todos geniales, kiske que buenos tiempos cuando te dedicabas al power
This song made me listen and love metal :)
oh my god. what amazing video. helloween at its best. hugs from Brazil to all !
Abraço! Lembro deste vídeo nos anos 80 no rrv em Lisboa
A qualidade da música pra época o vídeo está perfeito, parabéns
Michael Kiske's voice has something unique..kai hansen also has a unique voice.. There is no "ride the sky" wirhout Hansen. That’s the beauty of metal.. So much talent in one band.. And now they are 7 haha
Helloween la mejor banda de todos los tiempos
2019... Ride the Skyyyyyyy!
Young Kiske's range and power are inhuman. Totally out of this world.
holy fck , this is a way to sing Ride the Sky!!!!!
I still think this song belongs to Kai's voice, but Kiske can sing whatever he fcking pleases and he does amazing.
Ian Guillan descubrio la voz del heavy metal, Dio le dio lo agresivo, Bruce Dickinson las mejoro, y Kiske la perfecciono...
Definitivamente. Muchos ni lo tienen en cuenta, pero Ian Gillan fue el precursor y el que mostró el camino de como se debe cantar heavy metal.
Época mostruosa , me lembro da antiga heavy metal na vila Formosa quando entrava as músicas do Helloween era fodaaaaa
Hoje em dia aqui no RJ nem se acha mais lugares que tocam um som bom desses 😢
Classic !!
One of the most incredible Metal Voices!!.
viajaria en el tiempo solo para asistir a esos conciertos de la gira del keeper 1 y 2 :c
very good song and kiske the best...
my god! Kiske is a monster.
this scream on the begining is really untouchable
7:57 Chorei! Michael Kiske canta muito!!
Realmente cara! É de emocionar!
Kai Hansen
@@evandroramos2464 Muito!
Deris interpreta muito bem, mas esta performance é impecável.
Final apoteótico.
INCREDIBLE SONG!!!!
the voice of GOD!!!Kiske rides the sky!!!!
kiske y la banda más perfecta de toda la historia del rock puro, duro y krudo,estos son unos salvajes del metal y no del powershit.
eugenia Nuñez si ellos son los padres del power metal

Absolutamente cierto
Asi es bro, la voz de Kai es unica, le da la esencia completa del metal a Helloween... kiske y Deris tbn son buenas pero mas melodicas
Es muy cierto, muy buena observación.
Más*
Totalmente cierto.
This is awesome...the old Helloween songs are difficult for even good vocalists to sing. Kai may not have been that great of a vocalist,but he composed some challenging vocal melodies. Ralf Scheepers does a KILLER version of "Ride the Sky." Kiske does a fine version here too.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!
walls of jericho its like mix of maiden melodics and ride the lightning thrashines
Kiske wn, no tengo palabras para definirte
alucinante
Give me wings to fly!
Super song and super band!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸
HAIL HELLOWEEN
que tremendo momento gracias por compartir
Sick. This is live! bootleg! no overdubs! Kiske is amazing...
Ingo WAS amazing. Awesome drummer. Uli was a great replacement, too.
Why is there no HQ recording of Kiske singing this song damnit
shut up
the japanese version of keeper of 7 keys pt1
Ok... This what I've wrote is for Kiske's voice.
Kiske and Hansen , best duo
Dude.. Im in tears here. :'(
Me encanta la voz de Kiske, pero esta canción en especial, está diseñada para Kai Hansen
Vi un concierto de la época de máster of the rings y ride the sky en voz de Deris queda muy bien 👌🏼
Goosebumps!
are you crazy??? where is weiki??? eagle fly free, keeper of the seven keys, how many tears, guardians, a tale that wasn´t right, rise and fall, dr stein, starlight, cry for freedom, heavy metal is the law..... hansen+weikath=helloween
registro vocal brutal
I love how Kai guest sang in Blind Guardian's Valhala
Perfect...thanks 4 the video..Pumpkin 4ever
Uma das minhas faforitisima
KISKE FOREEEEEEEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great!
it pains m to say this but kai does actually sing this song better than kiske. I am the biggest kiske fan in the world, the man is just in a league of his own when it comes to voacalists. The only reason I say kai sings it better is bexause this song was written for someone with a gritty voice and that is kai. kiske's voice is so pure and clear. Amd I'm sorry but anyone who even compares Andy sory a$$ deris to either kai or kiske don't jave a clue about vocalists period. Deris is awful! He sounds like a dying cat in a hailstorm!
Might be cuz its made för Kai =)
+kathy reed That's true friend!!!!
+kathy reed Both Kiske and Hansen are great vocalists with powerful voices, but when Kiske joined the band he gave Helloween a lift. There is nothing Kiske can't sing if he puts his mind to it.

+kathy reed / yes!! I agree you!
I know every power-metal fan is in love (or has been in love) with Kiske, but I do think that Kai is a better vocalist.
Kiske's voice may be prettier, but that doesn't make him a better singer.
Hansen has a great technique, and that is undeniable.
ME PERDI DE ESE CONCIERTO, EXELENTE INTRO
awesome shit, wir sagen danke kiske, und viel glück mit UNISONIC (kiske+hansen)
Only one person sang this song better than kiske and that was the guy standing next to him who wrote it.
Kai is still making amazing music today. He's the one who should get the praise.
kiske wouldn't even have this song to sing if hansen didn't write it.
why the hell they ve never released these concerts officially? Its a huge loss...
i was there ❤️🇮🇩
awesome !
Honestly, I love Kiske but I think the level of brutality “Walls of Jericho” has, requires the dirty and gritty voice of Hansen rather the beautiful and crystal clear vocal attitude of Kiske.
muy buen aporte! gracias.
this band is way better now.........
la mejor epoca de helloween y punto
2:27 OMG!! EPIC!!
fuckin god, kiske is the man period!!
Love Kay
Si no se hubiese marchado Kai, helloween hoy serían grandiosos...
Pero no existiría Gamma Ray.
Aunque Gamma nunca será como los Helloween de los keepers!!!
Asi de simple.....
GRANDE MICHAEL KISKE
in this video you can see that they were really friends, now its just
kiske/hansen.. maybe a hansen/weikath friendship for money in hellish rock tour, and markus/weikath
anyway the escence of helloween its kai hansen, and kai + kiske in unisonic and gamma ray, its fucking amazing!
i love this one! specially with Kiske, Kisk is one of the Greatests Gods (Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford, etc...) but that song was made for Kai's voice (and by Kai), anyway, Kiske Still on the top!
OMG kiskeee😮🤩🤩🤩
magia pura que desaparecio hace muchos años
Legenda

scheiße das video ist so fucking RARE, wir feiern es gerade total!
Kiske ❤️❤️❤️
bons tempos!!!
Sure he is... singing flat at the intro scream and in most of the chorus' heights. It could be bad monitors though. Kiske Rocks:)
Anyone of you guys has the video for Guardians with Kiske? It was in the setlist at that time and it would be great to hear Kiske doing that tune...
damn he's a good singer
Esse e o verdadeiro hard rock
@OathBird Bruce's voice was pretty tired during 1985 from the extensive touring. It is evident on Live After Death. He was much better during the Piece Of Mind tour and during the '99-'01 (Brave New World) era.

In MY opinion, Kai does this song the best. Kiske do the "Keeper..."-songs best, and Deris make his songs the best.
Different albums, different styles, different singers.
And that's about it.
Kiske sound great!!! It's same that he left metal world!:(
Well he's back with Helloween as of 2016 :D
kiske amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
deris has sung the song on perfect pumkin bootleg and he does a really great job.kiske is amazing though.
Very good
Queria poder ter visto essa epoca
estos weyes pa mi que si le vendieron su alma al diablo de otra forma no entiendo tanta grandesa
@tammysyl magic studios es una IRONIA ,ke kiere decir ke es wen kantanta en el estudio y no en directo.
WHERE IS BRUCE DICKINSON?!?!?!?!
@sonnic1995 From a purely vocal talent standpoint, Kiske cannot compare, doesn't matter what kind of song he sings.
