    Album: Empire
    Genre: Heavy Metal
    Year: 1990
    Lyrics:
    A child alone in daddy's room
    The gun was hidden here
    No one home to catch me when I fall
    A young man now in a private chair
    I've seen the world through a bitter stare
    But my dream is still alive
    I'm going to be the best I can
    I want to be a busy man
    I want to see a change in the future
    I'm gonna make the best of what I have
    I want to write for a magazine
    I'm gonna be the best they've ever seen
    I know I'll win if I give it all I can
    I won't let go, gotta make the grade
    No, I won't let it go
    To be the best man, the best man that I can
    Back street hoop star you've got it good
    You were the wonder of the crumbling neighborhood
    Now taking bids on the next six digit plan
    Showed me that my will survived
    The tragedy that came into my life
    giving me hope and the new start
    that I have
    I won't let go, gotta make the grade
    No, I won't let it go
    To be the best man, the best man that I can
    Step by step I dream the plan
    From my chair to walking man
    This constant dream is on my mind
    Chase the light I see ahead
    Luminate the path I tread
    I live to be the best I can
    Now I'm moving forward
    And I'm never looking back
    Straight ahead, focused on the big attack
    On a roll and I'm never slowing down
    I won't be torn between
    The man in the chair
    And the man that's in my dream
    I'm going to melt the two men into one
    I won't let go, gotta make the grade I set
    No, I won't let it go
    To be the best man,
    the best man that I can

    Superb album. Queensryche at the top of their career. Saw them headlining on this tour. Magnificent. It was a dream come true for me as a fan to see my favorite band on earth headlining arenas. It meant a lot for me that this band that had integrity and made such great music had some success. They sold out four nights at Long Beach Arena and I saw them three nights in a row. Amazing band!

    Wow haven't heard this in a while. Listening now I'm actually getting a lot of late-80s Rush vibes. Some of those synths sound very Power Windows/Hold Your Fire to me. Also hearing some Lifeson-esque guitar arrangements.

    • @Scott-nr2ji
      @Scott-nr2ji 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Damn you, fella Rush fan! I remember having older friends of mine saying they hated "Hold Your Fire". It was near the bottom of my list of their (at that time) albums., But I was a big fan of it! Anyway, thank you for your comment, because it reminds me of WHEN Rush and Neil Peart existed together. (Neil is another indisputable perpetuall badass!)

    I was first introduced to this incredibly underrated album in my middle school years. My father was working selling secondhand items at swap meets during those years. I would help him on weekends. After the workday was over i always looved looking for abandoned items left by sellers. I found a laundry bag full of cassette tapes which included this album. I was a hip hop and R&B fan at the time but after i heard this album i was hooked. It has inspired me to seek out other great Rock and Metal bands. In my oppinion this album has a fine line between Rock and Metal. It was a sort of bridge for me into the journy of Metal music. It must have been incredibly experimental at the time of release yet after so many years i can totally hear elements used by current Metal bands.

      You might like these few other bands, on that same premise. They were considered Progressive, and inspired many progressive metal bands. Extreme ( 3 sides to every story ) Smashing pumpkins( melancholy and infinite sadness ), and Dream Theater ( Images and words) all great albums that You can listen through the whole thing. They were inching closer and closer to metal, until Dream theater did become the standard Progressive metal band. They have an endless ammt of musical elements that are beautiful, heavy, experimental, and everything between. Check them out.
