Definitely an underrated talent. R I P JOHN SYKES. You'll never be forgotten, i have always enjoyed your musical talents.. I Always Will till the day I die.. and Hopefully beyond.. My prayers go out to you family and friends. .
Oh look, real musicians! Sykes? Hands down one of the handful of individuals in the world that can pull this kind of flying mule kick ass music off. Genius, pure genius. A real one.
among all the solo guitarists who sing ,never i have heard someone who could also sing like this ...John Sykes is a legit excellent singer ,who could deliver passion and emotions with his voice as well with his guitar...an absolute Beast ! i Love him
Been my Guitar hero since I was 16, im an Irish lad & a massive Lizzy fan but when I heard 1987 that sealed the deal! As a guitar man from i was 12 years old John's playing & his vibrato is next to none!! I've been known as a Sykes player only because with age i learnt to keep hanging on the notes even when you think it's to much just keep going! Such a shame we never got 1988 lol
I have been listening to this song since the day the album was released. Simply put the lineup for this band was awesome. 3 guys and the sound is absolutely as full as it can get. The funny thing is that no one gives the bass player any credit. For those of you who do not know it is Tony Franklin who played with Jimmy page in The Firm. The 3 of them together are phenominal. And anyone who doesn't think John is one of the best in the business is a fool. Joey Brown
Tony is a beast on bass. Because Teen Beat Magazine and Rolling Stoone doesn't name him as a top tier bassist doesn't mean squat.. If He is good enough for Jimmy Page and Paul Rodgers. That is all I need to know. Tony was the glue that held Murders music together and made it sound tight and John just tore it up along with Carmine. Boho, You hit the nail on the head.
@@adrianlee3497 He's AWESOME...he'll respond to posts under his videos. I LOVE his BASS style...I introduced my teenaged Cousin who plays Bass to The Fretless Monster and I think he's been playing Bass fretless now. Kid's been playing Blues, Jazz, R&B with Adults at a small local Theatre near us since he was 14-15!
+muythaimutha i agree, i do physycally Love this man, for he embodies his music and the music flows right through him to his guitar, making it literally bleed.... he is unique...and he does sing way better than many actual lead singers.....awesome!!
John has such a incredible guitar sound..nobody sounds like his signature sound\tone. I hope he has great success with sy-ops in 2019...He deserves it.
Been listening to this song for donkey’s years now and can say it’s my favourite song of all time I’m just a bit confused why these guys didn’t get the fame they deserve
I have been listening to this song since the 90's, so awesome, it makes me think of my favorite girl. This is the greatest rock ballad I have ever heard.
@@kensurrency2564 what the hell has Coverdale got to do with that.? Poor ole Dave gets the blame for everythin.. Suppose it's his fault Sykes only comes out the house to put the bins out too, or that he's responsible for his orrible guitar vibrato and off key, nauseating vocals too ..... Poor Dave., leave him alone.
I'm standing here looking at your photograph I can't believe I'm all alone and you're not coming back On and on we rode the storm I sometimes wish I'd never been born alone here Crying out for love When times were hard we struggled through A long long time ago But things have changed, much more than this I never thought you'd go Taken in, my tears subside, I'm feeling lost Can I survive without you, I'm outta love again My heart it cries out in pain All the nights when you held me tight Life was good and love seemed right And now I'm here I can't believe you're gone You used to say love would never die But you were wrong and I've just died inside I'm outta love again I'm outta love again (Solo) Taken in, my tears subside, I'm feeling lost Can I survive without you, I'm outta love again The love we shared will never ever die inside my heart I swear I never dreamed that we would ever drift apart On and on, we rode the storm I sometimes wish I'd never been born here Alone here, crying out for love All the nights when you held me tight Life was good and love seemed right And now I'm here I can't believe you're gone You used to say love would never die But you were wrong and I've just died inside I'm outta love again I'm outta love again I'm outta love again Outta love again You know I'm missing you, girl Don't make me stand in the door alone I need your love to carry on Baby, please, don't leave me lonely, no Come back and save me Please don't fosake me, my god
Sykes is a great singer, yes. And I'm a Whitesnake fan, that's why I listen to him. He's an enormous part of Whitesnake's history. May I add, singer & guitarist (duh) & composer.
Met a girl in Batlley, West Yorkshire back in 1959, and she was from Wigan I think .... My old mans a dustman was the song I listened to all the way home. ....
Talent beyond measure... John Sykes is and was the best singer of the 80's gun-slinging Les Paul Guitar playing prodigies... His prowess of emotion and talent is the fucking things legends are made of... he was the talent behind the WS album in 1985 that gave david coverdale a new 20 year chance at fame..
It makes me mad when people (mostly the Whitesnake fans) say John Sykes can not sing. His voice is very heart felt and he knows what he can and can not do. I think his singing is great, but it's the guitar playing that does his singing for him. And if anyone STILL disagrees with what I have stated, I challenge you to play as great as John Sykes and sing that good at the same time.
Very underrated song. John Sykes doesn't get enough credit. You can just compare view count on "Is this love" song, which was also written by him and this song. He has made a huge impact on Whitesnake's popularity for sure.
I always thought that the Sykes must have had the same ego as Coverdale (hard to imagine considering the ass that Coverdale is) for them to clash the way they did. However, talent is talent, and Sykes deserved more recognition for his skills. One of my favorite guitarists and vocalists for that era. I still crank this album up from time to time, unlike a lot of other bands I used to listen to back then.
You and many others have misunderstood my statement. I wasn't comparing the two singers, just merely frutrated that people slam John's singing. I admire the fact he can play THAT technical while singing.
Plus there are at least 69 likes and no dislikes on this video; but that's unusual because there is always at least one DB out there that will hate no matter what....
Out of love Blue Murder I'm sitting here looking at your picture I can't believe I'm alone and you're not coming back. I went on the storm. Sometimes I wish I was never born Alone here shouting for love When times were tough we struggled to a long time ago But things have changed a lot more than that I didn't think you would go Taken in my tears disappear I feel lost I can survive without you, I'm gone again love Out of love Every night when you held me tight Life was good and love seemed right to me And now I'm here. I can't believe you're gone You said love would never die But you were wrong and I just died inside my I don't love again, I don't love again The love I shared will never die in my heart. I swear we never dreamed we would ever break up. Taken in my tears I can feel lost, I can survive without you, I came out of love again Every night when you held me tight Life was good and love seemed right to me And now I'm here. I can't believe you're gone You said love would never die But you were wrong and I just died inside my I don't love again, I don't love again
Finally, someone who gets what I am saying. I get some many people commenting saying Coverdale sucks, and that's not what I was even getting at at all. I love Whitesnake too and I think Aldrich is an amazing player (his work in Lion was fantastic). I just wanted people to aknowledge that playing guitar as good as John Sykes and singing too...not too many can do that.
Let’s not forget Aynsley Dunbar who recorded on the 1987 WS album. Aynsley is THE monster. He also played and recorded with Journey and Jefferson Starship, among many others. 👍👍👍
His voice is unique and above average overall; me thinks David Coverdale's voice is more resonant and trained. Some fans just don't want any thing to bastardize what they like. John Sykes definitively plays the electric guitar better than Coverdale and all the critics. Fuck the haters! Love the music!
Coverdale's voice was "thin" before working with Sykes, and when Sykes left, he quickly reverted. I'd say Sykes had a HUGE influence on Coverdale's (better) singing on the mid 80s release.
I should hope he does play electric guitar better than Dave, otherwise he would be a worse guitarist than I thought,... .and that would take some doing...
And may I add, one can clearly see the hand of Sykes in the composition of Whitesnake's 1987 & Slip Of The Tongue. Then came along Vandenberg, and now Doug Aldrich. It's all about the music, man. Comparisons are idiotic. Just enjoy Sykes, enjoy Whitesnake, and every single piece of art worth listening. They are all great. It's utterly difficult to sing a Coverdale song. You may reach the same notes but hardly the same way. He's got a gifted voice, that's a fact. Sykes's a great singer too.
I think the best mood for the whole album and 80's in general is the night. Seriously, give it a try. Its really fuckin magic. Here In Lima, Peru we have a similar landscape to the one of this album' cover. So its the real fucking mood bro
Awesome band! Awesome album! Put down by lousy music business politics! Coverdales whitesnake was favoured over Sykes and who wrote the killer tracks on 1987 Yes! Sykes!
Coverdale's voice was "thin" before working with Sykes, and when Sykes left, he quickly reverted. I'd say Sykes had a HUGE influence on Coverdale's (better) singing on the mid 80s release.
I love this song listen to the words if you had a girl friend and, you were in love with her and she broke your heart well this is , the song for you to remind you of that girl it does for me that bitch
I'm a Whitesnake fan. And because I'm a Whitesnake fan I came to know John Sykes. He played in Whitesnake not for his pretty face but for his talent. In his solo work, you can also appreciate his singing virtues. He's an extraordinary musician. To mix up stuff, about Coverdale & Sykes is fucking idiotic. Lead guitarist has always have a great deal of input in the end product of the musical composition in Whitesnake. The early years with Bernie Marsden (another GREAT singer) were awesome too.
Coverdale and Sykes were both as talented as each other, and David acknowledged John gave him a wake up call image wise. The problem was they are both alphas and wanted to lead the band, and DC couldn't stand for it. I understand John has got a recent album out and it's got to be better than anything Whitesnake can offer at this point. Good luck to him.
One of the saddest moments in Rock history.... R.I.P one of my biggest guitar heroes ...
Rock on John .....
Thnx for the memories 😢😓

Nobody can make a guitar sound like Sykes, incredible
Who would want to....
Sykes & Gibson Les Paul.what a fantastic combination
Real music, real talent.
The end of the outro solo just floors me every time, still. This may be his finest work, right here. He straight up makes me proud to be a musician.
John Sykes - guitars, vocals, backing vocals
Tony Franklin - bass, backing vocals
Carmine Appice - drums, backing vocals
Johns tone is just amazing. His vibrato is incredible.
widdly, diddly, piddly....
Especially in Cry for ❤ blow my mind every note has a rich color at incredible speed!
Always loved this song,the solo gives me goosebumps. Sykes is phenomenal.

Really likes this part:
I'm out of love agaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiinnn....
John Sykes is genius !
I'm standing here looking at your photograph
I can't believe I'm all alone and you're not coming back
On and on we rode the storm
I sometimes wish I'd never been born alone here
Crying out for love
When times were hard we struggled through
A long long time ago
But things have changed, much more than this
I never thought you'd go
Taken in, my tears subside, I'm feeling lost
Can I survive without you,
I'm outta love again
My heart it cries out in pain
All the nights when you held me tight
Life was good and love seemed right
And now I'm here
I can't believe you're gone
You used to say love would never die
But you were wrong and I've just died inside
I'm outta love again
I'm outta love again
(Solo)
Taken in, my tears subside, I'm feeling lost
Can I survive without you,
I'm outta love again
The love we shared will never ever die inside my heart
I swear I never dreamed that we would ever drift apart
On and on, we rode the storm
I sometimes wish I'd never been born here
Alone here, crying out for love
All the nights when you held me tight
Life was good and love seemed right
And now I'm here I can't believe you're gone
You used to say love would never die
But you were wrong and I've just died inside
I'm outta love again
I'm outta love again
I'm outta love again
Outta love again
You know I'm missing you, girl
Don't make me stand in the door alone
I need your love to carry on
Baby, please, don't leave me lonely, no
Come back and save me
Please don't fosake me, my god
All Hail John Sykes..!! Badass song..
Torn my soul in pieces! Brilliant! John please step out of the shadow!
He puts the bins out every Tuesday....

1 of my favourite guitar solos.
such an amazing album. still f'n rocks after all these years.
I love jhon ,tommy ,carmine ❤❤
The fact that John Sykes got to play alongside Philip Lynott ( R.I.P.) and rightly so helped him produce many a monster track, this for one.👍👍.
N J That’s right! He gave the mighty Phil Lynott and Thin Lizzy a shot in the arm on “Thunder and Lightning “ one of greatest records ever recorded!!!
