Midnight is one vocalist who will never again be duplicated and one who will always be remembered as an iconic vocalist! I have chills every time I hear his voice. R I.P Midnight
yesterday i got myself trancendence... ive been listening to it all night long, and reading the booklet... no sleep... just midnight... best prog album ever. period
I was a roadie and guitar tech for these guys in the beginning in Bradenton FL! Was a great time and band to be part of of good and bad times were had saddest of all was loosing John McDonald aka Midnight a great singer and friend RIP🙏Mid 🤘🤘🎸🔥😎
Put the Transcendence disc on today in memory of Midnight and this thing still rips 20 years later. RIP, dude. You were a HUGE inspiration to me as a singer.
Transcendence, One of my FAVORITE metal albums of ALL-TIME!!! In fact, been CRANKING IT UP on cassette in my 03 Toyota Tacoma. This album is very underappreciated, it's incredible from start to finish. Midnight's vocals have such emotion and power!!! RIP MIDNIGHT!!!
I remember blasting this in my brothers car in the summer of 1989. 17 years old no cares in the world just hanging with friends and listening to Metal.
I remember sitting outside their rehearsal warehouse in 88-89 along with other jaw dropped local musicians and bands in TampaBay /Sarasota Bands ...The same building also housed tech/death pioneers Athiest who will headline a European tour next Feb ..Its not all blue hairs and retirement homes its was a hot bed of unreal metal bands here..And Crimson Glory was greatly under appreciated then and now..All the albums rocked ..Transcendence is a top 10 all timer for me ..Check our Strange and Beutiful and Wade Black crushes it vocally on Astronomica
What a pure voice! He is able to sing like a magnificent bird that soars and climbs when the breeze lifts its wings. I have very seldom hears such a majestic voice.
I'm freaking pissed, 480k views is an insult! This is like one of the most amazing, most emotional, most powerful metal songs of all time, it should have at least 50 million views! I must have listened to this at least a thousand times during my difficult teenage years. Also RIP Midnight, you'll never be forgotten...
Probably the only quality video footage Ive seen on youtube of this band. The band is awesome and Midnight was great. The real mastery was the recording studio in Tampa that recorded,mixed and mastered the album Transcendence. ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED BANDS OF THE 80'S metal scene
@@nedeljkokopikopac1516 don't forget the proggy releases from Voivod, Iron Maiden and even Metallica in '88. Punks have their '77, but we have our '88! Yeeaah!!
Love these guys. Got into them accidentally on the s/t album. The college station had a vinyl copy for free and out of curiosity, I picked it up. Put the needle to it and was blown away. Transcendence is just as great, maybe even better. Regardless, these guys are unbelievable. Midnight's voice is top notch as well as everyone else in the band.
One of the many bands that had success from Bradenton/Sarasota Florida area. I knew these guys somewhat and had the chance to see them live a few times. I was in the band Cauldron around early to mid 90's with Matt Barlow and several bands practiced in the warehouse's aka storage buildings and Crimson Glory was just a few doors down from us. Great song great band thanks for sharing this brings back some awesome memories.
Is that the same storage building seen here in these videos? th-cam.com/video/qfnqBTk9oUw/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/F4OIFPOV0Rg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/VhgIJiY7Udg/w-d-xo.html Weren't Morbid Angel, Atheist, and Nocturnus also in the same lot?
One of the great rock songs of all-time. Love that thumping bass throughout, the drum fills, the guitars, the vocals, so much to love about this song. It's what rock is all about. The playing and mix is clean to the point that you can pick out any element of the song to focus on and listen again and again and always find little nuggets of notes spread throughout. Truly, a masterpiece.
R,I,P MIDNIGHT you will be missed,MIDNIGHT passed at 3:45 a.m. this morning (July8th) in st.petersburg from "Total kidney & Liver failure".Best metal singer ever!!!!!!
as the years go by I am more convinced that these two (first) albums were sent from some kind of abnormal distance, just to show us how music should be treated and loved ...
Rest in peace one of my favorite singers, I am sad but I hope that your voice will never forget, Crimson Glory will always be in the hearts of lovers of Heavy Metal Progressive. Midnight flying with Angels very high, god bless you!!!
Superb voice, amazing guitar, powerful bass and guitar. The result is one of the best songs of progressive metal. Beautiful, master piece of music. Check 0:11 hot woman 0:42 amazing 1:07 beautiful 1:22 guitar power 2:03 chorus 2:58 guitar solo 3:283:57 the range of the voice 3:37 the beautiful woman from 80s
Transcendence was a top 10 metal album in the 80's. Sure this pop-oriented tune was meant to attract the chicks, but the rest of the album summed up almost everything that is good about modern metal.
Tremendous song. Pretty much underrated. I think in the 80s people didn't take them seriously because of their funny glam/hair metal outlook. But their music was certainly not that type, they deserved a way more recognition. I've been listening to heavy metal music at least from last 17-18 years , I just discovered crimson glory couple of years back ! Such underrated they are !
Um…that WAS the 80s, minus the masks. I think that might have been the problem. Just think…a few years later, GWAR, Mushroomhead, Slipknot - CG masks look pretty tame in comparison!
They were huge in the prog power metal scene with bands like Jag Panzer, Titan Force, Heir Apparent, Queensryche (pre-Empire), Warlord and so on. I never came across anyone who considered them to be glam.
I FINALY FOUND THIS TRACK....i had an old tape with this song.. I didint know the name of the band or the name of the track.and i search on gogle using the lyrics...is wonderfull, thanks for posting
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these guys! Met them here in KC back in 86 or 87, really cool dudes! Still have they're autographed album sleeve on my wall! First time I've seen the video, great post!
Crimson was such an amazing band! Long live metal! Miss Midnight; we all do! They were so original. I love Transcendence! There will never be music like this that touched our souls ever again. Glad to see so many fans of CG! U guys are the best!
I had the cassete tape way back in '93 and finally bought the cd then.dude, this is truly metal.i love all the songs from this one.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. HEAVY METAL RULES ALL WAY.I'M TALKIN BOUT THE 80S. THESE DAYS METAL SUCKS.
Song brings back good memories. I remember this while living in Florida and the Panama City radio station being part of the Z-Rock network. This song was a huge hit on that station and was in the Z-Rock top 10 for a long time.
R.I.P. Midnight, I can't believe you are gone.. I will miss you buddy and I will never stop playing your records like I have done since I was a kid.... Goodbye.....
Notice that this single version uses synths, replacing the heavy rhythm guitars found on the album version, and is also shorter. Like the added backing vocals at the end though.
She awakens from a dream to a silent room Where shadows speak of memories Another sleepless night, Afraid to face the day It seems so long ago she shared the love She feels so deep inside Her love will never die But still she feels so lonely Lonely in Love Lonely in Love She wakes up to another day With everything going wrong She wonders where she would be If she had never seen his face She turns on the radio, But it's playing that same old song She's pouring another drink To drown away the memory of it all She can't wait another night Take another day She doesn't want to be Lonely in Love Lonely in Love There's a feeling she can't explain That no one can understand She just needs to get away But there's nowhere that she can go Tomorrow's so far away She's longing for yesterday If she could just turn back time She wants to leave the world behind She can't wait another night Take another day She doesn't want to be Lonely in Love Lonely in Love Lonely in Love Lonely in Love The night will fade, the sun will shine A new day And light the way for you to find New Love
if you don't look at the video, that music EASILY holds up to today's prog metal! i still have the cassette from back in the day back when roadrunner records were roadracer records
I remember hearing this song while living in Florida. A local Panama City station would carry the Z-Rock heavy metal broadcast out of Dallas. I remember Lonely set one of the records for staying #1 on their weekly Top 50 countdown for like 2 or 3 months. Also, one DJ had people calling in to try their hand at singing the song like he did to try and win free prizes. Ah, the fond memories. Not to mention the girls all loved this song too.
Crimson Glory - 1988 - Transcendence - Roadrunner Records Второй альбом американской группы Crimson Glory, которая не безуспешно посягнула на Progressive Heavy/Power Metal. Еще они запомнились тем, что музыкантов угораздило вначале одеть маски, (ну просто потому, что этого никто ранее не делал)) ), потом маски на пол-лица, ну и так далее - до полного их исчезновения. На своем сайте группа утверждает, что достигла международного успеха в середине 80-х и даже была признана пионерами американского Прогрессив Метал движения наряду с такими реномированными командами как Queensrÿche, Dream Theater, Fates Warning и Watchtower. Некоторые металлисты не уважают Progressive Heavy/Power из-за его напыщенности и навороченности, тогда как Metal должен быть угарным и забойным. Но даже если следовать этой точке зрения, которая несомненно имеет право на существование, то все-таки таким металлюгам есть смысл послушать Crimson Glory. Я имею в виду именно этот альбом - как минимум. Потому что угарности в самом своем первоначальном смысле тут хватает (Red Sharks и другие). А вот такой важный параметр как забойность - это да,... тут его тоже немало. Один из главных исполнителей команды - это конечно ультразвуковой вокалист Midnight (R.I.P. 2009). Вот он поет нормальным своим серебряным голосом, бережет связки, потом легко выходит на помпезный более высокий вокал, и далее уходит - как истребитель - в облака. Вот же дал бог человеку голос! Ну и будем честными - в этом альбоме 80 процентов прогрессивности обустроена вокруг вокала Midnight. Что там случилось, мне неизвестно, но позднее он ушел из группы и создал свой проект - Midnight - который выпустил несколько пластинок. А также поучаствовал в рок-метал-оперном проекте GENIUS - Episode 1: A Human Into Dreams' World, 2002. Про его отработку нужно сказать, что в чистом вокале для Миднайта нет никаких препятствий, он словно луч лазера, который неожиданно наткнулся на кусок масла. Он не то, чтобы успешно превозмогает трудности своих партий, нет, он их просто не замечает. Уникальный голос, супер-вокал. На диске ему помогают три гостевых вокалиста, это сделано, чтобы создать реальный диалог в некоторых трэках. На лид гитаре на альбоме отработал Jon Drenning, гитарист, у которых скиллов, мне кажется, поболее, чем потребовалось для написания этого альбома. Он рассказывал о записи: «Это был очень трудоемкий путь, но в то время это казалось чем-то, к чему стоит стремиться - первозданный, чистый звук и реальное разделение всех инструментов». Гитарист Drenning наполняет свои партии истовой красотой и вдумчивым мелодизмом. Везде он убедителен, и на нем собственно держится музыкальное кружево альбома. Альбом полон хитов и крутейшего музла, которое поражает своей подачей. И к середине альбома мне стало понятно, почему пластинку не сделали супер прогрессивной. Пластинка при своем совершенстве и исполнительском мастерстве должна быть доступной для МАССОВОГО слушателя (и покупателя). Наверняка, кто-то когда-то мечтал создать идеальный Power Metal альбом, а у кого-то само получалось, но вот Transcendence будто излучает радиацию и светится в темноте от приложенных трудов и блестящих мелодических находок. Что конечно сразу же заметно, - так это изумительное качество звука. Ну и когда я решил посмотреть имена людей, которые в студии крутили ручки и прочее, то немного оторопел. Всего их там 7 человек, включая таких монстров инжиниринга как Scott Burns и главного - Tom Morris, про которого еще Максим Горький говорил, что он «глыба и матерый человечище»)). P. S. Журнал Loudwire в 2017 году разместил этот альбом под номером #15 в свой список "Top 25 Power Metal Альбомов Всех Времен". А издание ThoughtCo назвало его в списке "Важные Power Metal Альбомы". th-cam.com/video/BH3h0OS84tM/w-d-xo.html
"In death I've found the answer In death I live again Fear not the reaper's blade It does not mean the end It never really ends" - Midnight "Transcendence"
Lyrics / Letras She awakens from a dream to a silent room Where shadows speak of memories Another sleepless night, Afraid to face the day It seems so long ago she shared the love She feels so deep inside Her love will never die But still she feels so lonely... Lonely in love She wakes up to another day With everything going wrong She wonders where she would be If she had ever seen his face She turns on the radio, But it's playing that same old song She's pouring another drink To drown away the memory of it all She can't wait another night Take another day She doesn't want to be Lonely in love There's a feeling she can't explain That no one can understand She just needs to get away But there's nowhere that she can go Tomorrow's so far away She's longing for yesterday If she could just turn back time She wants to leave the world behind She can't wait another night Take another day She doesn't want to be Lonely in love The night will fade, the sun will shine A new day And light the way for you to find New love
CG, The absolute Kings of metal!, few can compare! Man, this was what I grew up with, miss Mid fronting CG. Really want them back in the original lineup!!!! GO CG!!!!
My deep feeling for a such great personality and Heavy Metal singer MIDNIGHT+, All We Regret For That Cancelled Tour With Crimson Glory staff, and now, more than ever, Your Flame And Soul Still Burns In Your Chords And Steele Vocal Strings, Rest In Peace Brother+
I got this album for my 18th in 1989. Midnight was unique - yes like others but so much himself. I love the bass playing in this song, too. Good album, good musicians and Midnight was perfect for this band. RIP.
Anyone notice there are background vocals towards the end (3:50) that are on this video but not on the album version of the song? I wonder if this is a radio edit or something.

She awakens from a dream to a silent room
Where shadows speak of memories
Another sleepless night,
Afraid to face the day
It seems so long ago she shared the love
She feels so deep inside
Her love will never die
But still she feels so lonely
Lonely in Love
Lonely in Love
She wakes up to another day
With everything going wrong
She wonders where she would be
If she had never seen his face
She turns on the radio,
But it's playing that same old song
She's pouring another drink
To drown away the memory of it all
She can't wait another night
Take another day
She doesn't want to be
Lonely in Love
Lonely in Love
There's a feeling she can't explain
That no one can understand
She just needs to get away
But there's nowhere that she can go
Tomorrow's so far away
She's longing for yesterday
If she could just turn back time
She wants to leave the world behind
She can't wait another night
Take another day
She doesn't want to be
Lonely in Love
Lonely in Love
Lonely in Love
Lonely in Love
The night will fade, the sun will shine
A new day
And light the way for you to find
New Love
With the knowledge today, I can't help the impression that Midnight sang this song about his own spiritual demons.
There are bands. And then there are legends❤
RIP. Thank you for being the voice to the song about my first love
What a band for G od sake! they were simply out of this world!
I just love the vocals, and the album just killed it. On par or above Queensryche..The magic of the 80s is gone :(
One of the best ever
right ,but drums not real 🤔

Про его отработку нужно сказать, что в чистом вокале для Миднайта нет никаких препятствий, он словно луч лазера, который неожиданно наткнулся на кусок масла. Он не то, чтобы успешно превозмогает трудности своих партий, нет, он их просто не замечает. Уникальный голос, супер-вокал.
На диске ему помогают три гостевых вокалиста, это сделано, чтобы создать реальный диалог в некоторых трэках.
На лид гитаре на альбоме отработал Jon Drenning, гитарист, у которых скиллов, мне кажется, поболее, чем потребовалось для написания этого альбома.
Он рассказывал о записи: «Это был очень трудоемкий путь, но в то время это казалось чем-то, к чему стоит стремиться - первозданный, чистый звук и реальное разделение всех инструментов».
Гитарист Drenning наполняет свои партии истовой красотой и вдумчивым мелодизмом. Везде он убедителен, и на нем собственно держится музыкальное кружево альбома. Альбом полон хитов и крутейшего музла, которое поражает своей подачей.
И к середине альбома мне стало понятно, почему пластинку не сделали супер прогрессивной. Пластинка при своем совершенстве и исполнительском мастерстве должна быть доступной для МАССОВОГО слушателя (и покупателя).
Наверняка, кто-то когда-то мечтал создать идеальный Power Metal альбом, а у кого-то само получалось, но вот Transcendence будто излучает радиацию и светится в темноте от приложенных трудов и блестящих мелодических находок.
Что конечно сразу же заметно, - так это изумительное качество звука. Ну и когда я решил посмотреть имена людей, которые в студии крутили ручки и прочее, то немного оторопел. Всего их там 7 человек, включая таких монстров инжиниринга как Scott Burns и главного - Tom Morris, про которого еще Максим Горький говорил, что он «глыба и матерый человечище»)).
P. S. Журнал Loudwire в 2017 году разместил этот альбом под номером #15 в свой список "Top 25 Power Metal Альбомов Всех Времен".
А издание ThoughtCo назвало его в списке "Важные Power Metal Альбомы".

Midnight is INCREDIBLE!!! Easily one of the top 5 metal vocalists ever, in my opinion. This song doesn't even touch his greatness.
"In death I've found the answer
In death I live again
Fear not the reaper's blade
It does not mean the end
It never really ends"

Lyrics / Letras
She awakens from a dream to a silent room
Where shadows speak of memories
Another sleepless night,
Afraid to face the day
It seems so long ago she shared the love
She feels so deep inside
Her love will never die
But still she feels so lonely...
Lonely in love
She wakes up to another day
With everything going wrong
She wonders where she would be
If she had ever seen his face
She turns on the radio,
But it's playing that same old song
She's pouring another drink
To drown away the memory of it all
She can't wait another night
Take another day
She doesn't want to be
Lonely in love
There's a feeling she can't explain
That no one can understand
She just needs to get away
But there's nowhere that she can go
Tomorrow's so far away
She's longing for yesterday
If she could just turn back time
She wants to leave the world behind
She can't wait another night
Take another day
She doesn't want to be
Lonely in love
The night will fade, the sun will shine
A new day
And light the way for you to find
New love
Awesome band! Ya gotta love the musicianship and Midnite's pipes! Styles come and go but the music is what matters above it all.

I got this album for my 18th in 1989. Midnight was unique - yes like others but so much himself. I love the bass playing in this song, too. Good album, good musicians and Midnight was perfect for this band. RIP.
R.I.P Midnight!!! I will never forget the time we spend together!!
We are lonely without CG...
Ladies and gentlemen: the one and only Midnight. ❤
2021 still here, love this song
Anyone notice there are background vocals towards the end (3:50) that are on this video but not on the album version of the song? I wonder if this is a radio edit or something.
Крутая песня-пробирает до костей!MIDNIGHT-R.I.P.!
