I suspect there is some autotune, just not abused all to tell like the last three tracks they dropped. But I agree it sounds drastically better than anything so far.
@@lorenmorgan1931 pitch correction and auto tune are completely different tools. 99.9% of all producers use pitch correction to some degree, even on the most talented singers to tighten up their vocals. Auto tune is primarily used for people who can’t sing or carry a tune.
@@TheMrFett I have been an engineer for a long long time. They are the same really. Yes I use the tools (primarily Melodyne or if simple, ReaTune in Reaper), even on guitars. Autotune can be used multiple ways, automatic, manual, or note priority based (blocking out specific notes). I use it in manual mode only, and lift/lower to the root temperament, even on string instruments if something feels off. But using "Auto"tune would be automatic, and most engineers that know what they are doing will do it manually, and can make it sound natural. In the case of Rise, it does not sound natural at all, and cannot understand how that one made it to master like it was.
@@TheMrFetthave you ever actually used melodyne or auto tune? If somebody can’t sing auto tune isn’t going to help them sound good. Just sound in pitch. They will still sound awful. There is a difference. There is a reason why t pain was the best at the auto tune effect and it’s because he is a great singer. Better than Gary that’s for sure.
Amazing. I do like Extreme, but this new stuff is taking them to another level in my mind. This album Six is a fucking masterpiece. I can't find a weak moment.
This band is locked into what made/makes them different from all their peers. No one puts these hooks and harmonies and musicianship together the way they do. Beautiful.
But... ummmm, everyone did this 30 years ago. What are you on about? There were a bunch of '90s adult contemporary rock ballads like this. The only difference is, most of those ballads didn't feature a very skillful, but totally inapropiate shred solo. The solo basically ruined the song.
@@johnpavlovitzofficial5565oh, don't worry. I'll have a lovely day. Why? Because I'm not stuck thinking that formulaic stuff from 30 years ago is new or refreshing or good. If I were you, I wouldn't call others "sad" while wearing nostalgia glasses so hard as to think this isn't derative as a band covering those '90s rock ballads. Jesus Christ, man, you sound ridiculous!
This album would be multi platinum back in the day when rock music still sold. The singles have all been amazing with no signs of letting up for the remainder of the album. I hope Nuno, Gary, Pat, and Fig are extremely proud of what they’ve accomplished with these songs. The fans absolutely love what we’ve heard. If there is a band that can bring back rock it is Extreme! They still have the energy, talent, and vibe to draw all generations together to celebrate great rock and roll.. I hope the guys read this and it brings a smile to their faces knowing the impact their music is continuing to make on our lives….
Gary's singing is off the charts, he sounds as good today as back in the 80s and the guitar work is so crisp and I think Nuno is putting a little Eddie twist in the mix. Six is probably going be their best album, think anybody over 50 will be thrilled.
We've been trying to tell people for over 30 years... painfully misunderstood and underappreciated for most of their career, Extreme is just built different. Always and forever an absolutely incredible & uniquely versatile band.
Oh, I turned my son on to them a few years ago, criminally underrated band from my time. But is it my time? they make real music and I'm happy it's back
@@addbass8421 My 20-year-old son loves the band too and is coming with me to see them in Detroit! A dream trip!!! Much love, my friend. Let's enjoy this! 😊
I agree with this 100%. Hopefully I stop getting those blank stares from people when I say Extreme is my favorite band. And they have been since first hearing Play With me.
I'm 24, and my parents listen to 80's rock like nothing else. I was never super into it until I was about 15, and since then I have wanted nothing more than to live in the 80s lmao. I'm so glad they're still together, so someday I can tell my kids I could see them live
Very well said. The "turned up to 11" songs have been great, but this one fills out the beloved parts of the band not already covered by them. A yearning melodic emotion that hearkens back to "Stop the World", "Song for Love", "Hole Hearted". And another wonderful solo that again sounds so *real* - the sound of hands and pick on the strings.
@@kevgamble I totally agree with you. This song captures the beauty of More Than Words, Song For Love, Hole Hearted, Stop The World and Rise’N’Shine so well. This is what we’ve waited for so long. Today is my happy day ❤️🎸
the idea behind the bass lines must not be overlooked , it drives the music from start to end, kudos to Pat Badger for such beautiful selection of notes.
Could 🚫 NOT Agree MORE With You. . . Pat Badger Is An Amazing Musician Singer/Bassist & Just Adds Another Level Of EXTREMEness To This Awesome Band ! N! ! ✌️
Remember what it was like, to be excited for a new album to come out ? Extreme is bringing that back to us. What an incredible gift. Thank you !!! How I wish I could slit the cellophane, smell it new, slide out the sleeve, & lay that record on the turn table, start it up & read the liner notes & maybe follow along with a lyric sheet. As a kid, it was my Zen.
@@Ratabulous Yea, sadly I am stuck to the digital version until August when the vinyl arrives, but so far its great. This track is pure classic Extreme gold though, and blows the other 3 singles they dropped away. I hope as I get past track 4 it keeps heading in this direction with their original influences waving like a Jolly Roger on the ship they just stole. :)
Agreed. I have the other Extreme albums and liked a handful of songs but never got really into them. Every track dropped from the new album is very good! Supposed to see them at M3 this year but Nuno was injured from the MORC. Bummed
Pat Badger is very underrated, I love Nuno too, who doesn't?...When you have him, Pat gets overlooked. I can play bass ok but to harmonize the way he does while laying down those bass lines is phenomenal A+
This would be all over the radio stations if they werent all in league with their pay masters. There is a war on beautiful genuine music... all part of the war on culture and religion. Dumb down the population and bring them down and so much of modern day music is a part of that vehicle. Thank you Gary Pat Nuno Kevin for such a beautiful song. I have played it just so many times. This is just glorious, it raises the spirit and soul ❤
The first word that came to mind as I listened to this song was, "timeless". This song could've been a #1 hit at any point from the late 60's forward. It's lush, without a ton of production. It's upbeat without being cheesy. It lifts you up, but is also relaxing. It just feels good to listen to. It is...timeless.
It indeed is timeless. I listen to a radio station at my office that plays only rock songs and they update their play list like maybe once per 10 years... And out of nowhere this song came on... They don't do any introductions for the songs or anything... its just music 24/7. I legit thought its some sort of underrated lost gem from the 70s or 80s. What a song. Always puts a smile to my face.
I've never understood why Extreme don't have about 30 albums by now. My favourite band of all time. So unique and sooooo underated. Anyone who says otherwise is a complete idiot.
Thank You Extreme for getting back together and giving us killer songs. This song is exactly how I feel. Every song you gents have put it out is amazing. Gary's vocals are amazing. The band is so talented. I can't express in words how excited I am for this album. Real music by real musicians. Doesn't get better than this. I can't stop listening to this.
Great performance from Gary. Glad to see the Nele make its debut. Also great editing by Nuno in this video, especially when they turn the volume knob before the solo!
I honestly can't remember another song that I just kept hitting replay on so many times over and over. This is probably one of my favorite Extreme songs ever it just hits all the things I love about the band. Great harmony like Hole Hearted, Great guitar with that 12 string opening, Great solo, love the chorus, and the video reminds me of the old 80s storyline videos that nobody does anymore.
You know you're not alone, right? Been hitting replay on this song over and over as well, singing right along. Those beautiful harmonies in the chorus, the beautifully emotional guitar solo,. One of the best songs they've ever done.
it looks like the guy in the clip was in the friendzones for quite a while and finally got his chance. A music video with a simple but sweet story like this reminds me of the 90s MTV. This song and clip feels like a love letter from an old good friend, something that can make you smile just by reading the first paragraph.
2:45 Gary's range is ridiculously impressive! Very Queen sounding, and the guitar solo is quite Brian May derivative. Monster musicians and amazing songwriters. I've seen these guys live twice. Once in Germany in '89 or' 90 and they killed it. Saw them again at the M3 festival in Maryland around 20 years later and they were still killing it. These guys just keep getting better and better.
This song should b playing all over the radio this summer!!! Such a great song! Gary's voice has never sounded better, the rhythm section is perfect and Nuno....he sounds so energized, fresh and ready to rock....EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS SONG!
What a great song! I have a feeling Six is going to blow everyone’s mind. The first four singles are what you’d expect from Extreme, familiar yet new. I can’t wait to listen to the album in its entirety. 🖤🖤🖤
Beautiful song, Beautiful armonies! Thank you Extreme...Anyone else getting Queen vibes in the part before the solo? Gary's voice sounds so amazing in this
Been a fan since I was 10-years-old , I think this new album is absolutely awesome ! The Videos are great to ! Nuno’s solos are crazy good , not to mention the vocals .
This is without a doubt one of their best songs in their entire catalog. The melody, Gary adding some majesty to the vocals at the bridge, and Nuno delivering an unbelievable solo - that still fits a pop song WHILE it shreds. It has it all. Amazing job, fellas.
@@matejcevnik7362 polyphia is not pop are they? extreme is coming from a different angle. hopefully these songs hit the charts. because all pop charts suck now including spotify top lists.
I've liked all of Extreme 's new singles but this is fantastic. Those harmonies take you away to another time & place, drifting on summer skies. Gary channels his inner Freddie in places, even throws in a couple of his moves as a nod no doubt, leaving Nuno to rip the perfect solo (with his own nods to Bri). Absolutely stunning ❤️
it's so refreshing to hear just a good well structured, balanced and executed song! no bullshit... just great musicianship and singing like it used to be
You know a song is great when you're already singing along on the first time you're ever hearing it! And that solo! I literally gave it a round of applause sitting here in my chair! Great job!
I'm blown away by every single so far! I love the back to their roots sound on this one. Gary's voice is incredibly moving on this track. They sing harmonies like brothers. Super song. Love it! ❤❤❤❤
I'm crying...for real ! I think this song is beautiful in every way. I feel it in my heart like a warmth ray of light, like a trip to different places. I know Nuno is unique but the solo reminds me of Queen. Btw, that solo took me by surprise, I wasn't expecting it because this is such a sweet and melodic song, but then that solo takes it to another dimension, energetically speaking. Nuno takes us to heaven and then we land again in the sweetness of the vocal harmonies, which are perfect! Superb production, this is genius! Gary's voice sounds incredible! I'm a singer and let me tell you, he blew my mind with those high belted notes ! Please Gary, take care of your voice during the tour. The texture, the colors, the sounds and the plot of the video is so 80's and I love It!!! I LOVE EXTREME AND I LOVE THE SONG, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! Thank you for touching my soul with your music!!! ❤❤❤💜💜💜✨
If it were 90s, this song would be played over and over again in radio. Such catchy tunes and melody without sacrificing any musicality. The solo was as-usually-great-as-Nuno solo… this sing keeps on ringing on my ears. And somehow it reminds me of my late cats who went over the rainbow.. hope to see all of them on the other side of rainbow.. ❤❤
Oh how I hope this gets tons of air play on the radio! Great lyrics, great harmonies, beautiful arrangement - fantastic change of pace song on the new album.
@@ASalvaro Rise is too “hard rock” for mainstream radio. One can be hopeful the label will push the more casual listener-friendly tracks like this one.
@@TheMrFett yea but this was the mediabase mainstream rock airplay chart and the record company did send Rise to be added and only 1 station played it...freakin sad the way rock radio is these days
Rock radio Blows... They won't touch Extreme because they're a band that came from the '80s and all the rock radio stations are too busy still kissing Nirvana's dead ass.
All these bands from decades ago... most are shells of their former selves... and then there's these guys... They're sounding and writing as good as they ever have! Kudos Extreme! All these new songs have been GREAT! What a touching song, hit me straight in the heart!
And brand new Angel CD out now. You must check it out. Singer is 73 and guitarist is 74....original 2 members from the 70's. Check out Angel Once upon a time. And 2019 Angel RISEN CD.
@@stingylizard Ill give you Winger. HUGELY talented and still sound fantastic. I didnt know Sykes had anything recently..and I have tried, but I cant stand the new LAG album...save for one song.
Yeah man, most people have forgotten that this style of tunes were prevalent during the whole decade of 1980 and also during a period of the early 90s. What is good is good and always will be.
Is it just me, or does this whole thing feel like the comeback of Aerosmith, like when Permanent Vacation & Pump dropped. This whole Extreme album has sounded astounding so far! I hope this rockets them to the top once more, they've earned it.
30 year fan finally saw them from the 2nd row last month in NJ, they do not disappoint. Gary Cherones’ energy is infectious, Pats smile and crowd interaction made me feel young again, K Figg hits the drums harder and cleaner than anyone I’ve ever heard, and what can you say about the GOAT in my opinion that hasn’t already been said. You just have to experience Nuno Bettencourt in person. He’ll leave you shaking your head and wanting to rush home and pick up a guitar. Thanks for the memories fellas they’ll last the rest of my life.
This song is such a beacon of light! Really love the part in the middle when Gary goes to the higher register. Amazing! Such a nice contrast compared to the previous three songs, and can't wait for the full release of the album!!! 🎉❤
@@laurab5750 Except Mercury's voice was strong and full in that range not strangled like Gary's. Though if Mercury had reached Gary's age who knows what would have been left of his voice.
THIS is a band! , THIS is a song! this is REAL music with talent thought and provocative emotion. Thanks Extreme. Keep the beauty and power of music alive 🤘
Beautifully heartbreaking song about love, loss and redemption. For all you new Extreme fans, again we all beg you to discover iii sides to every story which is Extreme's finest hour and greatest album!
You have hit the nail on the head: ‘Beautifully heartbreaking..’ How this band are able to connect on such an emotional level is other-worldly. Thank you, Terry! Craig
Bingo! FAITH, IN THE MIDST OF RUINS! Once broken 💔💔becomes whole❤❤again. "Pray for that magical moment and it will appear (Don't fight for lost emotions) Wait for the sunrise And everything will seem so clear!" (Queen, aficionado here from the start) Agreed on III Sides. That album is ART! These guys deserve all the accolades coming their way.... again 😁😁🙏🙏
The more I hear this song the more I like it, and now I know I love it. Great chorus that I’ve been singing to myself lately. Today I realized Gary’s part before the solo reminded me of Freddie Mercury, and it brought tears to my eye to go along with the big smile on my face. Nuno’s solo is a work a art, and the video takes me back to high school, coincidently also when I first heard Extreme. Bought my tickets to one of their shows last night. Stoked.
This is a MASTERPIECEwith beautiful lyrics, harmonies, melody and music video. Extreme make my days perfect. When I woke up this morning, I said to myself that this would be Extreme Wednesday- that I would play Extreme songs ( yesterday I watched and listened to Nuno’s amazing interview with Rick Beato ). I was ecstatic and happy to know that there is a new song and mysic video. I LOVE this song and the music video so much. ❤️🎸
Same here. I watched the Beato interview yesterday as well. (well really it was a conversation and jam session). Every song so far has been amazing - classic Extreme in an amazingly updated way. ❤❤❤
So good to see Extreme and several other bands (Skid Row, Winger, etc.) from the same Era putting out such great music right now. Definitely takes me back to some much better times.
Wow. They did it again. 4 singles in a row. Rock solid. As far as songs go, this is my favorite of the 4. While so many of us complain that nobody makes real music anymore, these guys are doing something about it. Here's to you, Extreme!
Dudes... Maybe the best song you guys have ever done. The drums rock. Great bassline. Great guitar work, Nuno. And Gary, this might be you're best vocal ever. The song really hits hard emotionally. So glad you guys are back.
Man this reminds me of three sides, I love it. Gary sounds great.
No auto tune, no computer drum track, a singer pushing the vocals, a killer guitar solo. This is real music. Awesome !!!
I suspect there is some autotune, just not abused all to tell like the last three tracks they dropped. But I agree it sounds drastically better than anything so far.

Truth!
Extreme is a proof that rock is not dead. Love this band!
Greetings from Brazil!
Agreed!
Amazing. I do like Extreme, but this new stuff is taking them to another level in my mind. This album Six is a fucking masterpiece. I can't find a weak moment.
The Warning in México
Nice guys too
Jesus, Gary. Such an awesome vocal. After all these years, Extreme gives us the song of the summer of ‘23. Thank you.
🤘🏻🤘🏻
This is an awesome Gary performance and I’m always a fan of Nuno!
You can't do this by accident. So beautiful ❤️
Nuno Bettencourt #1:
This band is locked into what made/makes them different from all their peers. No one puts these hooks and harmonies and musicianship together the way they do. Beautiful.

I'm under 50 and I am over the moon!! What a brilliant come-back album!
Well Gary sounds EVEN better in my ears…
Than back in the days….
Extreme III side shows the same aggression and virtuosity. Different era different time. Same band. Give the 3rd album a try.
III Sides is my favorite Extreme album ever. I've encountered it as a musical rock opera on the scale of Tommy.
We've been trying to tell people for over 30 years... painfully misunderstood and underappreciated for most of their career, Extreme is just built different. Always and forever an absolutely incredible & uniquely versatile band.

..and Gary’s singing!
Same!
the idea behind the bass lines must not be overlooked , it drives the music from start to end, kudos to Pat Badger for such beautiful selection of notes.
Badger is SO underrated for his killer bass lines AND having to play with/follow Nuno. Dude is smooth.
Plus his singing! Saw them last night and he really bangs out those high harmonies.
Could 🚫 NOT Agree MORE With You. . . Pat Badger Is An Amazing Musician Singer/Bassist & Just Adds Another Level Of EXTREMEness To This Awesome Band ! N! ! ✌️
Thank you for bringing attention to Pat Badger’s talent. It gets overlooked with Nuno and Gary being so great at what they do but Pat is a beast
Very true
Remember what it was like, to be excited for a new album to come out ?
Extreme is bringing that back to us.
What an incredible gift.
Thank you !!!
How I wish I could slit the cellophane, smell it new, slide out the sleeve, & lay that record on the turn table, start it up & read the liner notes & maybe follow along with a lyric sheet.

This album is such a breath of fresh air, I can’t believe how good these songs are ! Back to back !

Totally agree! And to be able to hear the bass lines in the mix is incredible. Pat is so damn good! 🤩

How does such a beautiful song not have millions of views? Dark times.
We keep promoting it till the world wtf up!

yep .... finally some REAL music, for a change , new album gonna be a HUGE success for these guys !
I've never understood why Extreme don't have about 30 albums by now. My favourite band of all time. So unique and sooooo underated. Anyone who says otherwise is a complete idiot.
Watch the Rick Beato interview with Nuno and you will understand.
Welcome the world of the non Japanese Mr. Big fan…
AGREED
Most underrated band of all time
Thank You Extreme for getting back together and giving us killer songs. This song is exactly how I feel. Every song you gents have put it out is amazing. Gary's vocals are amazing. The band is so talented. I can't express in words how excited I am for this album. Real music by real musicians. Doesn't get better than this. I can't stop listening to this.

I feel this happiness too!!! Thank you Extreme, thank you all of you sharing this sense about this music.
I can't stop listening to it. The world needs this.
Great performance from Gary. Glad to see the Nele make its debut. Also great editing by Nuno in this video, especially when they turn the volume knob before the solo!

Absolutely channeling Freddie 😁
Still say Brian and roger should have recruited Gary instead of Adam
@@65boogerbutt Now that would have been SOMETHING!! Good idea
My first thought too was that Gary was channeling his inner Freddie Mercury.
Love the chorus melody. Harmonies blend so naturally. Still pinching myself that we get amazing new music from Extreme in 2023.
1st time i heard the chorus,, i was hooked instantly
This song came into my life at the exact time it needed to. Wow. I hope those guys read the comments on the power their music can have on people...
Second that shit
Those blissful Extreme harmonies and a shiver through the spine. You can sing with this song almost straight away.
Great melody!
Truly. This song is everything that rock music can do for pop music. It's got heart and edge but it's still infectious and catchy.
Well I can’t, I sound like a frog
@@itookallthenames Kermit is exactly what this song needs
@@kaicanyonellis lol well played!
Still one of the greatest bands of all time. Ever.
This song should b playing all over the radio this summer!!! Such a great song! Gary's voice has never sounded better, the rhythm section is perfect and Nuno....he sounds so energized, fresh and ready to rock....EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR THIS SONG!
Concordo deveria mais infelizmente não esta!
What a great song! I have a feeling Six is going to blow everyone’s mind. The first four singles are what you’d expect from Extreme, familiar yet new. I can’t wait to listen to the album in its entirety. 🖤🖤🖤
I couldn’t agree more. I’m just as stoked as every ‘extremist’ here. 🤘🏼😃
You have a feeling, haha, man, I think we all know this is their time man, its going to be BIG
@@ericp.7475 You’re absolutely right. Six is going to be BIG.
Gonna put everyone to sleep, in reality.
@@SamBrockmann 😮This sounds like a great 👍 song🎵 hopefully the album shall be as great 🤞
Beautiful song, Beautiful armonies! Thank you Extreme...Anyone else getting Queen vibes in the part before the solo? Gary's voice sounds so amazing in this
I thought that, veering into Freddy territory at times.
And the sound of guitar solo too!
Exactly what I thought!
Exactly same here. Gary was channeling Freddie and in the solo, Nuno was channeling Brian May.
This is the comment I was looking for. Feel exactly the same way about the Queen vibes.
Been a fan since I was 10-years-old , I think this new album is absolutely awesome ! The Videos are great to ! Nuno’s solos are crazy good , not to mention the vocals .
This is without a doubt one of their best songs in their entire catalog. The melody, Gary adding some majesty to the vocals at the bridge, and Nuno delivering an unbelievable solo - that still fits a pop song WHILE it shreds. It has it all.
Amazing job, fellas.
I go back to the first album, and usually prefer the heavier stuff...but this is a masterpiece
Totally agree. Extremely strong song. Pun intended. lol.
Bravo 👏
Exactly what I thought on first listen. Poppy as fuck! 🤘
Horrible et sans intérêt.
A band from the 80s gives me a song from the 90s with an 00s style music video. What a multi-time experience.
Well Said
If this was the 70's this would be all over the radio.Such a incredible band.
Queen's influence is very strong on this one. 🤘
You guys are single handedly saving music right now ❤ Much love from a long time fan in Sri Lanka
True that .cheers
Polyphia is taking care of that, they're more the past coming back for a bit.
@@peterkyrshan5315 🥂
I concur !!
@@matejcevnik7362 polyphia is not pop are they? extreme is coming from a different angle. hopefully these songs hit the charts. because all pop charts suck now including spotify top lists.
めちゃめちゃいい曲。偏りがなく、小パッケージ化もされていない。王道、ど真ん中、虚飾も虚栄もない。さすがヌーノ、真のアーティストとはあなたのことだ！
Son todos los componentes del Grupo,son unas,estrellas
I've liked all of Extreme 's new singles but this is fantastic. Those harmonies take you away to another time & place, drifting on summer skies. Gary channels his inner Freddie in places, even throws in a couple of his moves as a nod no doubt, leaving Nuno to rip the perfect solo (with his own nods to Bri). Absolutely stunning ❤️
Wow, i was thinking that!
Beautiful Freddie like 3:00 and after
Even Nuno’s guitar cable is a curly q like Brian’s.
Yeah, picked up on the Freddie vibe too. The guys can't do anything wrong right now...
No words, I love this band.
This album is a gift.
it's so refreshing to hear just a good well structured, balanced and executed song!
no bullshit... just great musicianship and singing like it used to be
How are these guys creating some of their best work when the rest of the bands in the their era depending on their “old” stuff. Masterful madness.
You know a song is great when you're already singing along on the first time you're ever hearing it! And that solo! I literally gave it a round of applause sitting here in my chair! Great job!
Never been so excited to hear a new album.. real musicians still after 30 years. Love love them
I'm blown away by every single so far! I love the back to their roots sound on this one. Gary's voice is incredibly moving on this track. They sing harmonies like brothers. Super song. Love it! ❤❤❤❤
same!!!!!! Nuno was on Rick Beato and said this is Gary's album, his shiny moment.
Once again, Extreme does not disappoint. Outstanding tune.
Am I the only one that feels a Grammy nomination coming soon!? Thanks for coming back EXTREME, you guys are sounding BETTER THAN EVER!
In a perfect world
I'm crying...for real ! I think this song is beautiful in every way. I feel it in my heart like a warmth ray of light, like a trip to different places. I know Nuno is unique but the solo reminds me of Queen. Btw, that solo took me by surprise, I wasn't expecting it because this is such a sweet and melodic song, but then that solo takes it to another dimension, energetically speaking. Nuno takes us to heaven and then we land again in the sweetness of the vocal harmonies, which are perfect! Superb production, this is genius! Gary's voice sounds incredible! I'm a singer and let me tell you, he blew my mind with those high belted notes ! Please Gary, take care of your voice during the tour.
The texture, the colors, the sounds and the plot of the video is so 80's and I love It!!! I LOVE EXTREME AND I LOVE THE SONG, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! Thank you for touching my soul with your music!!! ❤❤❤💜💜💜✨
I lit cried. 30 year fan and I'm so happy!!
It’s that Good 🤘
Ah Extreme, the gift that keeps on giving. I haven't enjoyed new music this much in decades.
If it were 90s, this song would be played over and over again in radio. Such catchy tunes and melody without sacrificing any musicality. The solo was as-usually-great-as-Nuno solo… this sing keeps on ringing on my ears.
And somehow it reminds me of my late cats who went over the rainbow.. hope to see all of them on the other side of rainbow.. ❤❤
Oh how I hope this gets tons of air play on the radio! Great lyrics, great harmonies, beautiful arrangement - fantastic change of pace song on the new album.
Unfortunately radio wont even play Rise even with all the hype
@@ASalvaro Rise is too “hard rock” for mainstream radio. One can be hopeful the label will push the more casual listener-friendly tracks like this one.
@@TheMrFett yea but this was the mediabase mainstream rock airplay chart and the record company did send Rise to be added and only 1 station played it...freakin sad the way rock radio is these days
Rock radio Blows... They won't touch Extreme because they're a band that came from the '80s and all the rock radio stations are too busy still kissing Nirvana's dead ass.
If there’s still such a thing as a #1 song, this should be it. Hands down. Simply beautiful! ❤
Let's make it #1!
Say that to reguetón lists...
It would be yes 91 all over -)
Easily one of their best songs, one of the catchiest choruses they've ever written 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What makes a song great is story telling. And this one delivers. That is what is missing in current music today.
Can't wait for the album release. So far, every song is FANTASTIC
Agreed!!!! Looking forward to passing off the neighbors!!!
No question, Nuno's guitar work is always excellent. The bassline for this song makes it for me.
Much respect to Extreme….after a long period without a new album you guys have absolutely knocked it out of the park. Lifelong fan here.
This song is freaking amazing and should be the #1 song in the country. Extreme is on fire
As I said, my heart is fully recovered and full of warmth. You already know this. I do believe in love. ❤
Extreme Harmonies, y'all!!
All these bands from decades ago... most are shells of their former selves... and then there's these guys... They're sounding and writing as good as they ever have! Kudos Extreme! All these new songs have been GREAT! What a touching song, hit me straight in the heart!
LA Guns,Winger,Sykes...plus these cats. 2023 👍
The new Winger album is also really good!
@@stingylizard Sykes has new stuff????
And brand new Angel CD out now. You must check it out. Singer is 73 and guitarist is 74....original 2 members from the 70's. Check out Angel Once upon a time. And 2019 Angel RISEN CD.
@@stingylizard Ill give you Winger. HUGELY talented and still sound fantastic. I didnt know Sykes had anything recently..and I have tried, but I cant stand the new LAG album...save for one song.
Thank you “Extreme” for all the beautiful songs. LONG LIVE 80s musicians
A real band playing real music. Always a pleasure! ❤
Loved the latest Nuno interview with Rick.
loved this song as well.
Long live extreme
Proof that the real rock bands do exist AND they make the best ballads
Extreme showing not only are they capable of persisting but they thrive and somehow create fresh material decades later. Amazing diverse music🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘
I loved! This song has several nuances of Queen. A melody that can embrace the world.
Exactly my thought 💭!! ❤
I can hear Brian in Nuno's solo😃
and i hear Fredie's voice in Gary's
Extreme should win across every board and panel for best album of 2023. Period. Full stop. Zero questions. Go Boston!
What a voice. Still has it after all these years.
Extreme is doing some HEAVY LIFTING keeping the 80s-rock sound alive
Yeah man, most people have forgotten that this style of tunes were prevalent during the whole decade of 1980 and also during a period of the early 90s. What is good is good and always will be.
I don’t hear anything like this on the radio today. So fresh, new and I love it
Could be this summer’s big hit
Nino still shredding 🎸
Is it just me, or does this whole thing feel like the comeback of Aerosmith, like when Permanent Vacation & Pump dropped. This whole Extreme album has sounded astounding so far! I hope this rockets them to the top once more, they've earned it.
Yeah, Banshee is all Aerosmith influence.
30 year fan finally saw them from the 2nd row last month in NJ, they do not disappoint. Gary Cherones’ energy is infectious, Pats smile and crowd interaction made me feel young again, K Figg hits the drums harder and cleaner than anyone I’ve ever heard, and what can you say about the GOAT in my opinion that hasn’t already been said. You just have to experience Nuno Bettencourt in person. He’ll leave you shaking your head and wanting to rush home and pick up a guitar. Thanks for the memories fellas they’ll last the rest of my life.
This song is such a beacon of light! Really love the part in the middle when Gary goes to the higher register. Amazing! Such a nice contrast compared to the previous three songs, and can't wait for the full release of the album!!! 🎉❤
He sounded like Freddie Mercury when he went higher like that.
Reminiscent of Queen
@@laurab5750 Except Mercury's voice was strong and full in that range not strangled like Gary's. Though if Mercury had reached Gary's age who knows what would have been left of his voice.
The vocals are really the only part of the song that doesn't sound like it was ripped straight from a '90s adult contemporary rock ballad.
@@termsofusepolice, I mean, even as Freddy was literally dying of AIDS, he continued to perform strong. Not sure we can say that of Gary.
THIS is a band! , THIS is a song! this is REAL music with talent thought and provocative emotion. Thanks Extreme. Keep the beauty and power of music alive 🤘
That solo brings me to tears. Just so perfect and beautiful.
Beautifully heartbreaking song about love, loss and redemption. For all you new Extreme fans, again we all beg you to discover iii sides to every story which is Extreme's finest hour and greatest album!
Love iii sides too ❤😊
You have hit the nail on the head: ‘Beautifully heartbreaking..’ How this band are able to connect on such an emotional level is other-worldly. Thank you, Terry! Craig
Bingo! FAITH, IN THE MIDST OF RUINS! Once broken 💔💔becomes whole❤❤again.
"Pray for that magical moment and it will appear
(Don't fight for lost emotions)
Wait for the sunrise
And everything will seem so clear!" (Queen, aficionado here from the start)
Agreed on III Sides. That album is ART!
These guys deserve all the accolades coming their way.... again 😁😁🙏🙏
Amazing 👏👏👏👏
Grammy for best rock band will come … for sure !!!
in our days there’s nothing even close to EXTREME !!!
you would be right if the Grammys weren't a total shit show.
The more I hear this song the more I like it, and now I know I love it. Great chorus that I’ve been singing to myself lately. Today I realized Gary’s part before the solo reminded me of Freddie Mercury, and it brought tears to my eye to go along with the big smile on my face. Nuno’s solo is a work a art, and the video takes me back to high school, coincidently also when I first heard Extreme. Bought my tickets to one of their shows last night. Stoked.
The crowds signing along with the Chorus during the Live Show is going to be INSANE!
Gary’s vocal is amazing!! Beautiful harmonies!!
This should be the #1 song in the country. Amazing album boys!
This is a MASTERPIECEwith beautiful lyrics, harmonies, melody and music video. Extreme make my days perfect. When I woke up this morning, I said to myself that this would be Extreme Wednesday- that I would play Extreme songs ( yesterday I watched and listened to Nuno’s amazing interview with Rick Beato ). I was ecstatic and happy to know that there is a new song and mysic video. I LOVE this song and the music video so much. ❤️🎸
Same here. I watched the Beato interview yesterday as well. (well really it was a conversation and jam session). Every song so far has been amazing - classic Extreme in an amazingly updated way. ❤❤❤
Yes! Great interview with 2 awesome guys.
This new album has been worth the wait! Y'all are sounding magnificent!
There is something, maybe the sound, the harmony and the melody or the beautiful place that takes me back to the 90's... Thank You Extreme!
So good to see Extreme and several other bands (Skid Row, Winger, etc.) from the same Era putting out such great music right now. Definitely takes me back to some much better times.
Probably my top 3 albums this year. Extreme/SKids/Winger. All great!
Don’t forget to check out Richie Kotzen and The Winery Dogs, too!
I cried a little bit...
Always the mark of perfection for me.
Thanks guys.
Tears here too!!
These guys still got it!
Every time they release a single, I don’t think it could get any better, but it does. This one gets me right in the feels ❤❤❤
yep!
Yeah me too... Magical!!! The perfect song
My thoughts exactly!!! I am seriously blown away!!
@@whatjanesaysgoes same!!
Its perfection ❤
Wow. They did it again. 4 singles in a row. Rock solid. As far as songs go, this is my favorite of the 4.
While so many of us complain that nobody makes real music anymore, these guys are doing something about it.
Here's to you, Extreme!
Oh, Gary. You are SOARING! Freddie can hear his from the other side and is smiling. Brilliant. Brilliant. BRILLIANT! Welcome back, Extreme!
Dudes... Maybe the best song you guys have ever done. The drums rock. Great bassline. Great guitar work, Nuno. And Gary, this might be you're best vocal ever. The song really hits hard emotionally. So glad you guys are back.
