I was a black nerd back in the 70s and 80s. Watching Star Wars and listening to hard rock. I got teased mercilessly. Today I am comfortable in my skin and happy to say that this is one of the many songs I blasted on my boom box instead of rap LOL. I have zero regrets. This song is sheer PERFECTION!!!
Believe it or not I'm 52 and never heard of Rainbow till just about a decade ago on Eddie Trunks That Metal Show. I knew this song, just never knew who sang it..
You've gotta be so cool!!!! I'm 52 and I got a wild hair and decided to take drum lessons this year, I'm glad there's others like me that will love rock till they die!
Born in 64 gave me and my generation SO much music choices, I do mean fabulous bands like Rainbow, Led Z, Queen, ..etc. Appreciate these excellent singers and musicians now..there will be no more like them.
1979 Hoping it was in the 80s, I just couldn't remember. I do remember this song playing at the Rollerskating rink. I skated therefrom 78-82. What a time it was John! ;p
@@lostintime8651 Yes, Sadly, I was one of them. 😂 And this song ALWAYS brings a smile to my face! Which album(s) did Graham Bonnett record with Rainbow...and after that?

Rainbow, along with Bowie and Queen, were my 'getting ready to go out' preferences in the 70's and 80's ... even now, their music still makes me feel so great and pleased with life! How lucky we were to have grown up in that time?
If he would have been 'totally underrated", he wouldn't have been revived by Blackmore. That man knew a good singer when he heard one. Too bad he had a strict no short hair policy.
@@Retroscoop Short haired Graham was subsequently replaced by no hair Joe Lynn Turner who's been wearing hair pieces for decades due to suffering form alopecia.
This video just turned 40 years old !!! Shot on August 14, 1979 !!! Oh, well...time flies. Sad. Miss the 1970's & 80's (1975 - 84, especially!) my youth & my old friends. Gone! 🥃 Miss how the western world REALLY WAS back then & life WITHOUT internet & cellphones.
@@TheUKNutter Sure there are. But songs like this are in another league. I'm not sitting in a silo refusing to search for new music. There's a lot of dross out there, but I'll listen to just about any style or recording artist if it's good.

I might only be 16 so I wasn’t alive when this music was released but the sounds and instruments make me feel nostalgic guess that’s what good rock can do to you.
This song was guaranteed to have every budding air guitarist in the place on to the dance floor , Me included , a classic Rock Anthem from simpler more carefree days that will linger in My memories for evermore , I just wish/hope the Youth of today could/can enjoy the same pleasure .
I'm 63 and I saw them at the tameside theatre ashton which had been totally refurbished. Richie had trashed a couple of his white Fenders and chucked them into the crowd when he jumped on top of the speaker bank and proceeded to smash holes out of all the new plaster work that had cost fortunes to do. Awesome gig which I won't forget
This is one of my favorite Rainbow songs. One reason I like Rainbow so much is because a guy who looks like an Italian who moved to Hawaii to be an undercover cop, is in the same band that Ronnie James Dio was in. I love both Dio and Graham Bonnet.
Honestly, the whole band was like an All-Stars Band - Don Airey, Roger Glover, Cozy Powell, Ritchie Blackmore and of course the allmighty Graham Bonnet. There was not a single musician who would not be a master of his craft.
+oBet studios a guy named "theneedledrop" has a video titled something like 'you weren't born in the wrong generation'. dudes a huge self proclaimed music nerd with knowledge of like music from the 60s-up to a tee. Really opened my eyes imo
The sound was a product of it's time. That's why you would like Night Flight Orchestra - they ape this sound perfectly. A bit too perfect for my taste, but anyway. They have 2 albums and a new one out soon.
I must confess, this is one of my all time favorites. The guitar riff gets stuck in your head and the vocals are amazing. I must have watched this video over 50 times, as this copy has the best audio I have found. Thank you for posting. Rainbow rocks.
When I got out of jail, I walked into my house for the first time in 65 days, turned on the radio, and you guessed it, this song came on almost immediately! It was like my house was welcoming me back home! OMGosh!!!
I understand completely I pulled 4 years and when I got home it was Ozzy Osbourne And then Dio the last in line one of my favorites know exactly how you feel
HA! I am proud to say that I have seen Bonnet singing live with the Michael Schenker Group in Sheffield in 2017. Took my then 13 year old daughter along with me.
I was taking bass guitar lessons back in the early 80's at a local music shop, one day the owner said he had a special treat for everyone who was taking music lessons and to come to the studio he had in the back of the shop on a particular day. So on that day I went out of curiosity to see what was going on, Rainbow was there and they did a live performance for us, they put on a great show and it was cool to get to meet them!
How lucky can you get? That is amazing. Were you aware at the time how big a deal it was or just in hindsight? I realize this comment is four months old but really am curious about the encounter.
@@wasntme9578 Yes I was aware, and as a young musician in training at the time it was a huge thrill to see them live, up close and in person, all the band members were very friendly and outgoing to us. Now, whenever I hear them on the Sirius rock channels, it brings back great memories of the encounter!
Turning 21 in 2 days, and i grew up with this kind of music by my mom. I dare to proudly say i grew up with the best music ever! If only i could experience these hits coming out for the first time again

Rainbow 1980 Rainbow knocking it out at Donington Monsters of Rock, 38 years later Graham Bonnet was still knocking it out perfectly at Pontypridd's Muni Arts centre. Excellent.
58 yrs old here. Used to cover this song back in the day when we ran out of our own stuff. I can still hit these notes but good god they are high, especially the end mod. Graham Bonnet is a monster and a force of nature.
There is a video on here now where he was singing it back this past Demeber (2022). He still can reach tbose highs, but he sounds like an old man singing it.

Graham Bonnet is criminally underrated as a singer.
NOT many opportunities, and the competitors do not like him for his obvious qualities.
Well no, he is very much rated now, and always was. Just didn't have the long hair to match the egos in the band.
@@chewyfoks1840 Yeah.. which is why he only last 1 album. Richie Blackmore I imagine was too difficult to work with.
Down to Earth is my favourite Rainbow album. Even better than Rising.
@@jannelonnqvist2947 Rising is my favorite but down to earth is good as well.

I agree! He is an awesome singer! Superb voice! Sings this song perfectly!
You're so right!! a lot of singers don't enunciate that well and you can't understand them,Graham is excellent.
Good point. This has got to be the only hard rock song where you can understand every word.
One of the best songs to be released in 1979 ,, THE 70s ROOOCKED

The sunglasses are confusing and seem forced.
One of the greatest songs ever 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
People talk about his voice a lot, with reason, but look at this man's stage presence. His energy. When I grow up I want to be Graham Bonnet.
He has an awesome voice. He ain't Dio, but who is?
I hope the new Generations enjoy this classic.
Rainbow, along with Bowie and Queen, were my 'getting ready to go out' preferences in the 70's and 80's ... even now, their music still makes me feel so great and pleased with life! How lucky we were to have grown up in that time?
'getting ready to go out' preferences. Clever way of putting it : )
You've got an amazing taste in music! I know I'm 20 - odd years old but would you marry me?
yes we are lucky. you had to be there to know
Graham Bonnet, the coolest rock singer ever, still has that amazing voice, so bloody gorgeous 🥰
The contrast of Bonnet's appearance to the rest of the band made this a favorite on early MTV.
Bonnets voice is incredible, even now at 71. Totally underrated singer a Legend. No one sings since you been gone like Graham. Real rock star.
You'll be glad to know that Alcatrazz is back!
Saw him last year. Still awesome!!

Once In A Lifetime My Friend Pure Magic
Also Dio at some point
I saw that lineup when they opened for Blue Oyster Cult at the Richfield Coliseum (outside of Cleveland ) in 1979. They we're truly a great band!
And Richie fired each of them, like so many others he fired. Nobody lasted more than 5 years.
Blackmore and Glover...a true Deep Durple spin-off.

Yeah. I don't know why music has got so bad all of a sudden. I believe no music released after 2005 is decent.

Since jr high, i've listened to this, and at 56, i STILL love it! Combat vet, former cop and retired now-STILL ROCKING!
Thank you for your service...ALL of it. God bless you. Keep rocking!
I WANT TO GO BACK IN TIME.
Oh the days of COUNTDOWN!! ❤
This song I discovered recently at 28 and its such a damn good early morning or coming home from work song.
One of the greatest renditions of all time! Rainbow was absolutely terrific!
What a Voice 🙌🏼
GOTG vol 3 brought me here! Love listening to these gems Marvel and James Gunn use.
I know I'm young and all (15) but I'm so happy my family raised me on this music 🙏🏻
58 yrs old here. Used to cover this song back in the day when we ran out of our own stuff. I can still hit these notes but good god they are high, especially the end mod. Graham Bonnet is a monster and a force of nature.
Back in the day was August 1979 RRELEASED ,,
There is a video on here now where he was singing it back this past Demeber (2022). He still can reach tbose highs, but he sounds like an old man singing it.
