Sorry brother.. I lost a GF because of a piece of shit drunk driver when we were 17.. I am Now 47 and it really fucked me Up... I was NEVER able to to get completely close to another woman since... my fear is that... yeah.... hang in there.
This life hurts, always, maybe there is something beyond, something eternal, inside of every human being, maybe every living animals. Everyone deserves our site, i hope she is waiting for you somewhere!
56 and still listen to WASP. 80s were the best time to grow up with the best music. One of the best power ballads. It still holds a special place in my heart; I listened to it after my mother passed away over 18 years ago. I cried like I haven't cried before. RIP mom.
greatest tribute song... blackie wrote this song after his close friend who was a female - died in a road accident... you can feel the pain , distress , agony and intensity in his vocals and lyrics.... one of the greatest power ballad of all time. period... thanx blackie..
@Nonofya Business No, can't be right. I remember pre-internet days hearing a similar story. I could have sworn it was the girlfriend/fiance of a close friend of his, but she herself could have been that close friend.
KISS, Motley Crue and WASP were my 80's bands. I just turned 64, and still listen to the 80's metal every single day on Pandora! Long live the 80's!!!!!!!!!
+Richard Green oh yeah,but the late 60's &70's were the foundation, as well as far back as late 30's,40's for instance Robert Johnson, Box Car Willie, e.t.c., Love good music, including opera, c&w ,swing! American music is really amazing. Check it when you get a chance, it really is pretty damn Cool!!
you know what sucks? i was born into a generation that doesnt appreciate real music like this. this is a masterpiece but nobody these days gives a shit! I love W.A.S.P and im only 15! Keep rocking W.A.S.P!
I don't care what anyone says, W.A.S.P had the most amazing beautiful ballads. They weren't glammed out so got overlooked in some ways back then. One of the best metal bands to ever exist!
+Musica_aeon i do agree, and this song made me think of my Wife whom passed away just over year ago and break down. Not Sad over it, glad this song can truly mean something to me :LD
Dear Rob - i can understand the distress you go through when you relate with the lyrics , blackie's intense heart-wrenching vocals and the song with the video.... but always remember what lebanese - american mystic Khalil Gibran said - " Rememberance is a form of meeting".... also " deeper the sorrow carves into your being , the more joy you can contain.." this song means a lot to you because your late wife is always watching you from the heaven above is evermore by your side...
Tragically underrated, just goes to show the modest talents are not destined for the big stage. Hats off to Blackie for not selling out to the business.
wow!! listening to this song sends shivers down my spine. an absolute masterpiece by wasp. been listening to rock since i was 15 & i am now nearly 60. this song will never grow old
I actually saw W.A.S.P in concert back in 1989 in San Antonio TX, with a friend of mine. That concert converted my friend from the Rap they had back then to Rock and Metal. He still listens to Rock and Metal to this day. W.A.S.P was a great band !!!!
I first saw Wasp at Monsters of Rock Festival way back....many moons ago. Blackie's voice was.. and still is bloody amazing. Seeing you guys in March 2023 again. Can't wait. It's been too long.
One of the greatest voices in Heavy Metal during those hot daze of the eighties.Blackie could hit the notes of our hearts without us ever feelin we had wimped out .One of few too. We ruled the airwaves and saturated MTV .I Met my wife bak then. We fell in love to this and still soar high feelin so young at heart. Keep crazee all WASP fans world wide. Raise your glasses one more time..CHEERS. We are still out there.....
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever. It grips the soul and bears witness to loss and pain. It brings tears to my eyes everything I listen to it. Blackie is such an intelligent writer. Can't compare to anyone or anything period.
I was 11, at a sleepover. Her parents let us sleep in the living room and I sat up alone watching headbangers ball when this video came on, and I began the hardest crush of my life! they played " real me" next and my fate as a worshipper was sealed. my stings never healed, God willing they never will! thank you God! the world is better for having Blackie in it!
W.A.S.P. was may first metal band.. It's been with me since 1986 when I got the cassette tape of The Last Command. It's always been a guiding light through the shit life can deal you. W.A.S.P. is forever.
Raven knows I bin there death hell and back your never the same when a hot woman and shes carrying your baby says she loves you last words dies in your arms it drips your heart out
A couple of months ago I nearly lost my babe, the love of my life, my wife and mother to my child. The first tragic night at the hospital, the only thing that was in my mind was this song, one of my favourites in my teenage years, of one of me and my lady's favourite band (seen them live everytime they visit Greece). Funnily enough Blackie's voice helped me go through the worst night of my life and soothed my soul. I still remember the feeling and how I felt in "Forever in my hearts a fire, a fire burning. I wake up nights and hear her crying, crying my name" knowing that I was right there next to her and couldn't help her. Thank God everything went well for us in the end..!!
Still... The greatest power ballad of all time... Hidden, unknown, under appreciated.... a true gem from an era that refuses to be forgotten. Black Lawless, this sir, was your timeless classic. #1 fav WASP tune
W A S P FOREVER FREE amazing band and fantastic song 🎵 with amazing vocals and fantastic lyrics blackie lawless amazing singer 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 WASP AWESOME 💯🤘💯FOREVER FREE 💯💯 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I ride all alone and can't see The road to nowhere anymore And shadows whispers are calling me To forbidden forests by the shore And there she fell, deep in the night One breath away from heavens light And she said - don't cry for me I'm leaving you The wind cries her name in the breeze But I can't hold her anymore /no, no, no/ Some fallen angel had come to me And fell too heavy on my soul And stole from me the love that I heard Lords of time say never die And she sad - don't cry for me, because I'll be Riding the wind forever free High in the wind forever free I'll ride the wind forever free High in the wind forever free Forever in my hearts a fire, a fire burning I wake up nights and hear her crying, crying my name
W A S P FOREVER FREE WAS THE BEST SONG 🎵 WASP AWESOME BAND WITH AMAZING VOCALS AND FANTASTIC LYRICS WHAT LEGENDS IN THE HEAVY METAL AND ROCK MUSIC 🎶 🎵 ONE OF MY FAVOURITE HEAVY METAL BAND IS WASP AWESOME VIDEO HAS WELL WITH PLENTY OF GUITARS 🎸 🥁 🎸 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥W A S P FOREVER 🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A classic hair-metal ballad arraigned with plenty of intensity. Lyrics always gave me the impression the 2 characters had a bitter relationship. "Don't cry for me, I'm leaving you" is a brutal deathbed insult.
I love this band & yeah I grew up listening to them...Kix...Bulletboys...Faster Pussycat...Jackyl and my girl Stevie Nick's what a generation of musicians....the 80's rule!
When I first heard this song I just couldn't believe it was Wasp. How fantastic is it. Seems they decided to drop their image and concentrate on their music. Well done, one of the best ballads I've ever heard. Thumbs up to you.
Lost my brother who turn 16 in a motorcycle accident by drunk driver he loved this song this song really hits home play it all the time always cry great song love you guys
My son is severely autistic, and he just got a drumstick from Steve Riley, the drummer for W.A.S.P. when this video was made...thanks to my friends Lynn and Greg! :D
Glad I grew up in the 80s. No one could ever have sung this song like Blackie. I wished I had seen WASP in concert back in the 80s. Their videos were just amazing.
AFTER SPENDING THREE MONTHS LIVING ON THE STREETS HERE IN KOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA USA! I WENT BACK TO WHERE I USED TO RESIDE BUT DAMN IT ALL I'M BACK OUT ON THE STREETS "FOREVER FREE"!!
One of the best ballads in history, dam people, listen to it. It's friggin beautiful. Brings chills to me. Sorry Black for your loss. I understand, my husband just died. Young 🌱
No so-called "band" of today could ever be who these guys are. It's called originality, creativity and kick ASS rock n roll!!!! Glad we have the classic 80s rock hits to listen to for the rest of our lives.
Unfortunately rock music especially heavy metal and hard rock will never be like this again and is in a coma. I want this song played at my memorial service when it's time for me to become One with The Force.
I listen to mostly rap, and what rock I do listen to is heavy metal. Im not really into ballads, but this song is fierce! It builds up perfectly. When he says, "Forever Free", at 2:04, its on! The guitar solo is crazy, the chorus is hypnotic, and the run out is so strong. The song has anguish and emotion pouring out of it. This song is real. Youre not going to hear anything like that on a Top 40 station.
I listen to power ballads when im sad, and black metal when im feeling complicated (hard to explain really what it means). This song and Wild Child are great songs that somehow remind me that theres nothing like a bit of action in life, which is pretty absent for me now. Enjoy the song people!
depending on my frame of mind state of my emotions this song Hits home reminds me what I lost in 1988 due to a traffic accident while I was out of town for a month February-March.
I heard this many years ago and still come back to listen, a unique song that has that 100 miles an hour and then that ballad in between,Mr lawless must have that sense of humour
My mother was a lover of music.. I was raised with pleasure of knowing such bands.. She passed when I was 8 years of age.. We got kicked out of the funeral home, my older siblings and I, but I listen to this song every day.. I'm 23 years old.. This band should be and is, in my book legends
My first Record I had 1989.What a song. Still listen often one of the best I have ever heard. Thank's guys for making me grow up with the best music of all times 80's.
@@AngelofAnguish 3 years later, but I have an answer to that. Once upon a time the music industry was ran and controlled by the musicians. Then big Corp took over, and all that matters is what sells, not what is good or real talent. Such a shame. 😔
W.A.S.P. Forever Free lyrics I ride all alone and can't see The road to nowhere anymore And shadows whispers are calling me To forbidden forests by the shore And there she fell, deep in the night One breath away from heavens light And she said - don't cry for me I'm leaving you The wind cries her name in the breeze But I can't hold her anymore /no, no, no/ Some fallen angel had come to me And fell too heavy on my soul And stole from me the love that I heard Lords of time say never die And she sad - don't cry for me, because I'll be Riding the wind forever free High in the wind forever free I'll ride the wind forever free High in the wind forever free Forever in my hearts a fire, a fire burning I wake up nights and hear her crying, crying my name
Shelly Bradford rest in peace, Robert Bradford God bless you, so sorry for your loss, I lost my best friend she was 38 years old and was the only one (apart from me) who appreciated proper music, long live the 80s.
It may be a bit teenager of me, at my ripe age of 45, but I dig the hell out of when he has his foot up on whatever he has it up on at the beginning of the solo. Plus, this goes from ballad to straight up fucking rock in 1 second. I miss feeling the power of a great guitar solo like this. You FEEL the power in this song.
after my wife(23yrs) passed away in 2015.I listened to this and cried for hours.this song holds a special place in my heart.
R.I.P Shelly Bradford
So sorry for your loss.
Sorry brother.. I lost a GF because of a piece of shit drunk driver when we were 17.. I am
Now 47 and it really fucked me
Up... I was NEVER able to to get completely close to another woman since... my fear is that... yeah.... hang in there.
This life hurts, always, maybe there is something beyond, something eternal, inside of every human being, maybe every living animals. Everyone deserves our site, i hope she is waiting for you somewhere!

I'm 56 and I have listened to them since the beginning WASP IS ROCK N ROLL
53, born and grew up in the USSR, this music was the sound of freedom!
greatest tribute song... blackie wrote this song after his close friend who was a female - died in a road accident... you can feel the pain , distress , agony and intensity in his vocals and lyrics.... one of the greatest power ballad of all time. period... thanx blackie..
You could tell it in his strong solo too. Let it loose
@Nonofya Business No, can't be right. I remember pre-internet days hearing a similar story. I could have sworn it was the girlfriend/fiance of a close friend of his, but she herself could have been that close friend.
@@Cheshyre. no you're right
It was because she was drunk and high and she drove that night... Blackie blamed himself for not driving.
😢
blackie,,in my opinion had the best voice of all the 80's hair metal,,,unique,,nobody sounded like him
Chris Slater agree !
True ☺
Powerful raspy voice, top song.
Don't tag him as hair metal, it's heavy metal and he is true artist and billion times more talented, not a commercial addict
Best voice ever
KISS, Motley Crue and WASP were my 80's bands. I just turned 64, and still listen to the 80's metal every single day on Pandora! Long live the 80's!!!!!!!!!
I am 52 years old and I hope to still listen to heavy metal when I am 64
3 amazing bands 🎉
I'm 49 and listen to it everyday
One of the most underrated "power ballads" of the 80s. WASP just made good music. Period.
True! In my opinion one of the best Songs ever written!!
yep
Bill B. I agree. one of my favorite Rock bands
Me 2
Hey "bands" of today, watch and learn... You can try, but 80's metal bands will still kick your ass every time!
Ain't no truer words ever spoken! Keep it LOUD AND PROUD BROTHER, ROCK AND FUCKIN' ROLL ! !

Tragically underrated, just goes to show the modest talents are not destined for the big stage. Hats off to Blackie for not selling out to the business.

Brilliant rock ballad, one of the most underrated songs of all time
I ride all alone and can't see
The road to nowhere anymore
And shadows whispers are calling me
To forbidden forests by the shore
And there she fell, deep in the night
One breath away from heavens light
And she said - don't cry for me I'm leaving you
The wind cries her name in the breeze
But I can't hold her anymore /no, no, no/
Some fallen angel had come to me
And fell too heavy on my soul
And stole from me the love that I heard
Lords of time say never die
And she sad - don't cry for me, because I'll be
Riding the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
I'll ride the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
Forever in my hearts a fire, a fire burning
I wake up nights and hear her crying, crying my name

The image was just a tool to get a contract
Crimson Idol, which was almost a solo album since he did almost all the work on it, was and will always be a masterpiece
Lost my brother who turn 16 in a motorcycle accident by drunk driver he loved this song this song really hits home play it all the time always cry great song love you guys
those vocals are awesome and in blackout song aswell

One breath away from heavens light
And she said - don't cry for me I'm leaving you
The wind cries her name in the breeze
But I can't hold her anymore /no, no, no/
Some fallen angel had come to me
And fell too heavy on my soul
And stole from me the love that I heard
Lords of time say never die
And she sad - don't cry for me, because I'll be
Riding the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
I'll ride the wind forever free
High in the wind forever free
Forever in my hearts a fire, a fire burning
I wake up nights and hear her crying, crying my name
WASP, such a great band, and this song is a Masterpiece.
My favorite W.A.S.P. song hands down...such a good album.
gosh brought me right back into the 80s- 90s....when rock n roll made living worth the love and passion.....
Ah… the 80s... when bands knew how to write songs. A good melody, some meaning words and lots of feeling… good musicianship would help, too. :-)
played this at my buddies funeral
Awesome choice to be sent off with :)
Shelly Bradford rest in peace, Robert Bradford God bless you, so sorry for your loss, I lost my best friend she was 38 years old and was the only one (apart from me) who appreciated proper music, long live the 80s.
It may be a bit teenager of me, at my ripe age of 45, but I dig the hell out of when he has his foot up on whatever he has it up on at the beginning of the solo.
Plus, this goes from ballad to straight up fucking rock in 1 second.
I miss feeling the power of a great guitar solo like this.
You FEEL the power in this song.
best WASP song of all time...and for me, in the top 5 metal ballads of all time easily
Thanks WASP for this song and many many other songs :)
80's Rocks!!!
This song is so awesome and cool and I'm 52 and I was in my early teens when I heard this group and I have all of their CD'S
Lost 3 great friends, songs reminds me of them!!
