I still remember when I sent an email to Minoru Nihara in the early 2000s telling him I was a big fan of Loudness and how their music was so important. He replied me my email made him smile and "Keep rocking!"
Minuro Nihara y Michael Vescera son tan buenos cantantes que ambos quedan bien en Loudness, podrían haber estado en cualquier banda, ambos muy talentosos

These guys never got the credit they deserved in the Western Hemisphere. I wore the “Soldier of Fortune” tape out in high school. These guys are legit Metal badasses !
Amer sharifuddin! Takasaki omg He's great guitarist but plz listen to Warren demartini of Ratt I mean all the albums especially Detonator and invasion of your privacy
Michael Vescera is one of the most underrated vocalists in metal history. I only ever bought this album in high school because of him and his band Obsession.
@@bobdaniel5367 I bought the Scarred for Life cassette as a 14 year old in 1986 knowing nothing about them other than having read a small interview. I bought Awaken the Guardian by Fates Warning the same day, same reason. That was a great day for music for me. Life long fan of both bands. I have seen FW a couple times but Obsession never came near my little corner of the Midwest. So instead I've just tracked down and tried to buy as many of the projects Vescera was involved with as I could. Scarred for Life and Methods of Madness are gems.
Akira Takasaki is an absolute beast! No clue how this band is not spoken of so much more in the metal, and rock world. So so good, with a very distinct & recognizable sound!
Tonight's the night I'm breakin' out I gotta know What it's all about Hey babe There ain't no way I'm gonna lose you I got your love In my blood tonight And I'm so far gone I can't see the light Oh yeah The pressure's on And I'm cruisin' Baby, take me back where I belong Take me back before the night is gone... No, I can't escape the thunder Of your burning wings of love Take me down and love me, baby Slow and easy! You shook me So heavy! All night long You took me Rock steady! All night long You shook me So heavy! All night long You took me Rock steady! All night long Startin' out I'm bearing down You got me burning At the speed of sound... Oooo... And I'm coming To get ya! Ain't nothing gonna stop me now If ya can't get loose, I can show you how I'm gonna hold you tight 'Cause I can still remember! Baby, take me back where I belong Take me back before Before the thrill is gone I've been on the road of lightning With a circuit overload Take me back and love me, baby So easy! You shook me So heavy! All night long You took me Rock steady! All night long
This band has definitely stood the test of time and then some!! Akira T. is one of the strongest lead guitarist of his day. I remember when i was in high school rockin out to this album and many others. So grateful to be a part of the generation that never stopped KICKIN' ASS!!
One of my favourite albums of all time, Soldier Of Fortune. Akira Takasaki is phenomenal, Vescara´s best vocal work to day, every song is quality. RIP Munetaka Higuchi, what a powerhouse of a drummer he was ! Taken too early from this world.
As this video clearly demonstrates, LOUDNESS were on the verge of making it big in the Western Hemisphere, then, they were suffocated by the Grunge Movement. Whoever posted “You Shook Me,” I thank you,. “SOLDIER OF FORTUNE” is a masterpiece.
Very good album owned it multiple times, Sorry for your loss, hope you hold up. If this was his favorite band he was probably a very cool cat. Certainly had good taste in music.
Absolutely skull crushing ..I do remember them but hearing them just now I dont believe they got the credit they deffinetly deserved..one more on my playlists tonight Rock on brothers!!
Shame he didn't hang around longer. The album is just right for his style. brilliant album, fantastic singer. Mike sure changed the sound of Loudness for a short time.
Feel better everyone because I use Iheart Radio on the Michael Schenker mode and this song plus the rest of that album are highlighted. And as much as I love the guitar, the singer kills this song. His best work.
Wayne A Dude!!! Killer band. I like EZO a little more than Loudness. Educate me if you don’t mind. Loudness came out slightly before EZO?! Masaki Yamada left EZO and joined Loundness in 1992? I feel so stupid, didn’t realize Loudness released over 20 albums.
Now that was a perfectly-constructed and executed shred solo, as opposed to a lot of shredders who's solos are only comprised of random sweep arpeggios and alternate-picked speed runs that make no melodic sense.
2023 is coming to end....hats off for those who are listening to this masterpiece..❤
2024*
Jan 2025.
In the 80s when I was in high school i listened to it and I still do even I'm 57 years old loudness still Rock
I graduated in 1984, right there with ya!!

Texas Turner hemisferio oeste??? Eso puso?
sabalaje loco Loudness is huge in the East, mainly Japan.
Haha😂😂. I remeber my first beer.
They were really huge back then in Malaysia.
Anyone else listening to this in 2024??
Yep
Me
Most definitely. Still rocks hard.
The Japanese Scorpions😊
Oh yeah still listening to loudness in 2024. They are great band
I love this band,they are amazing.❤️
Akira takasaki is a one of the best guitarist in the world.
Amer sharifuddin! Takasaki omg He's great guitarist but plz listen to Warren demartini of Ratt I mean all the albums especially Detonator and invasion of your privacy
Mike Vescera nice voice
Brilliant ripping Heavy Metal voice, hail!
He can still sing like this to this day.
He had a robotic larynx replacement. Look it up.
@@sryburn641 a what?
@@nicholasdorazio10 a laboratory produced voicebox equipped with four complete octaves and a half ball-squeeze whistler.
These master's of Metal just keep getting better and better!!!!!! I love their powerful hard rock metal guitar that's blasting all the time!!!!
The solo was the best part of that song. Akira is a frickin master!
Akira's tone as always off the charts heavy! He's a great player too!
The loudness definitely gets overlooked when talking about the best metal bands... Rock on Loudness, much love from the US!!!
Great band. Mike is still killing it today with his fantastic voice.
These guys opened up for Motley Crue and blew em out of the arena. 🤘🏻
I saw the same show, Mick Mars (not shabby) not even the same league with Akira. Motley Crue should have opened for them instead.
I believe that.
@@chansouvannarath3789 for sure🤟
I saw that show in Baltimore. Yes, they blew the Crüe off the stage.
I imagine that wasn't too hard
Phenomenal band! They bring the power and the passion to our music scene! 🙌👍🏻

Obsession Ruled....Scarred For Life
This album it’s my favorite for vescera it’s a pure 💎🤟🤟
I love this entire cd. In my opinion its Akiras best guitar playing.
Never get bored with this song since 1989
One of the best bands ever
Akira Takasaki is an absolute beast! No clue how this band is not spoken of so much more in the metal, and rock world. So so good, with a very distinct & recognizable sound!
Great song. As always Akira slays with that killer guitar tone.

Tonight's the night
I'm breakin' out
I gotta know
What it's all about
Hey babe
There ain't no way
I'm gonna lose you
I got your love
In my blood tonight
And I'm so far gone
I can't see the light
Oh yeah
The pressure's on
And I'm cruisin'
Baby, take me back where I belong
Take me back before the night is gone...
No, I can't escape the thunder
Of your burning wings of love
Take me down and love me, baby
Slow and easy!
You shook me
So heavy!
All night long
You took me
Rock steady!
All night long
You shook me
So heavy!
All night long
You took me
Rock steady!
All night long
Startin' out
I'm bearing down
You got me burning
At the speed of sound...
Oooo...
And I'm coming
To get ya!
Ain't nothing gonna stop me now
If ya can't get loose, I can show you how
I'm gonna hold you tight
'Cause I can still remember!
Baby, take me back where I belong
Take me back before
Before the thrill is gone
I've been on the road of lightning
With a circuit overload
Take me back and love me, baby
So easy!
You shook me
So heavy!
All night long
You took me
Rock steady!
All night long
loudness is lagendaries rock band from japan,i love they are.
FRIGG!!! I love the Loudness! Since them 80's man. Great Band!

This band is very much electrified!!!! The guitarist is absolutely fantastic. He can make that guitar sing!!! Wow!!!
Akira is an absolute assassin on guitar, highly underrated in my opinion. His playing on Thunder In The East is as good as it gets
just AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!... never forgotten here!!
I met them also..in York pa..they did a gigg...was a great show!!
One of my favourite albums of all time, Soldier Of Fortune. Akira Takasaki is phenomenal, Vescara´s best vocal work to day, every song is quality. RIP Munetaka Higuchi, what a powerhouse of a drummer he was ! Taken too early from this world.
Yes he was a phenomenal drummer. Caught them live opening for RATT in Norman,, Oklahoma in 1985. Blew RATT away !!!!
Vescara is a cheap made in America replacement
Wat bout the bassist
Sadly same fate for Hiroyuki Tanaka, who died far too young.
As this video clearly demonstrates, LOUDNESS were on the verge of making it big in the Western Hemisphere, then, they were suffocated by the Grunge Movement. Whoever posted “You Shook Me,” I thank you,. “SOLDIER OF FORTUNE” is a masterpiece.
Rest in peace,Munetaka Higuchi.
Was he a lead guitarist?
@@ghostrider5611 drummer

Rest In Peace
Amen. Awesome drummer.
Me and my late brothers favorite album, lots of great memories with my brother,..
Very good album owned it multiple times, Sorry for your loss, hope you hold up. If this was his favorite band he was probably a very cool cat. Certainly had good taste in music.
心の片隅にいつもあってたまにチラチラ顔を出す永遠のカッコよリフ（intro）
2:50 突然full accel みたいなguitar solo の入りとかソロ後半のダブリング&ハモりとかも最&高
ベースもドラムも・・結局、このバンドはギターだけじゃない。ラウドネスはラウドネス🤟
LOUDNESS!!!!! Awesome Band! I met them 2 times Both times where Excellent!. Very Awesome to see them backstage.
I Like Slow And Easy.........U R Awsome............
This band is so underrated!
In my opinion he was the japanese DIO 👍
It's not underrated since they're my favorites, that's enough for them to be considered the best.
Mike Vescara , the voice of Obsession! Sounding damn good here.
i love this song from MALAYSIA🇲🇾
Assalamualaikum 🇲🇾
Waalaikumsalam
this is ONE FUCKING KILLER TUNE!!! Mike's voice and Akira's guitar work are on a different level. period.

Gue dong, hair metal, hardrock, glam rock, thrash metal and heavy metal....badasss 🤟
как я скучаю по той музыке. Самый классный период был в роке.
One of those why wasn't I listening to bands from back in the day of damn good music. Good hard driving sounds.
Underrated singer and album!
nothing to compare between niihara and vescera..i love both of them...and for sure both are great with fantastic powerful voice #LoudnessForever
Muito ótimo o som do grupo e a música eh muito maravilhosa. A banda toca muito bem. O guitarrista eh enorme estrela da banda.
I like loudness musik, fan from sarawakian dayakness borneo
Always loved these guys from the early 80's. They've been through a few band members over the years.
Incredible . From the riffs to the ripping guitar . All round a classic headbanger
Rock-n-Roll. Great voice !
Absolutely skull crushing ..I do remember them but hearing them just now I dont believe they got the credit they deffinetly deserved..one more on my playlists tonight Rock on brothers!!
2021 still hearing this & for forever
80s & 90s is the best sound for me
Eh bandao japona. Os caras sao incriveis. Curta e goste.

Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱
Gotta be one of loudness most fun song to play on the guitar. The rythmn part is so just damn cool to play
Shame he didn't hang around longer. The album is just right for his style. brilliant album, fantastic singer. Mike sure changed the sound of Loudness for a short time.
Cada vez que veo algún video de este gran grupo de rock and roll...very good !!!
Wow! I didn't know of Loudness until just a few days ago!
Akira Takasaki, The Master, The Legend.
Awesome!I love this song !!I was with my boyfriend Mel Sanchezof Abattoir and Loudness were waiting to do an interview for Kerrang at the Country Club
One the most under rated guitarists of metal thanks for coming to Ohio along time ago with AC/DC great show!!
Mantap banget,mengingatkan kenangan saya di taon 90 an..salam tiga jari
Great song, great band, Loudness! Perfect example of great 80s metal
Akira's guitar playing is out of this world
Amazing!!! 2st very music I listen of them!! THEY ROCK
HEAVY METAL PURO. ÓTIMO VIVER OS ANOS 80, 90 e 2000. METAL PRÁ SEMPRE. 🇧🇷
Such an awesome album and great mojo between these band members!
Love their music and have done so since the eighties.Found their music in Yokosuka and during an Asian tour via the USN.
Rip muneteka...

Felicitaciones un clasico aprendi a decirlo por su buen entendimiento en sus capacidades cada uno en sus instrumentos .
高崎、凄いサイコー😍💓💓
Embarrassed to admit , never heard of loudness until a few years ago. Thought I knew of every 80’s metal band that ever existed. Boy was I wrong!!!
How about EZO?
Wayne A

This is still one of my favorite metal songs ever.
Akira Tasaki is great giutarist and Awesome skill to play the guitar 🎸🎧🎼
Like Motley Crue said you’re invited but your friend can’t come.
The original rock!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤2023
I saw Loudness with the Crue in Sacramento -Thunder in the East tour in the West
This group was bad ass!!!! They deserve so much credit. Vescera and Nihara as lead singers both kicked ass.
The greatest guitarist ever
One of my favorite songs i was menhera
Discovered loudness at a party in 1985.. Was blown away....
One of the best loudnes`s song
Excelente canción
Great song. Great vocalist
your with john norum :-)
Now that was a perfectly-constructed and executed shred solo, as opposed to a lot of shredders who's solos are only comprised of random sweep arpeggios and alternate-picked speed runs that make no melodic sense.
Totally agree with you, dude! One of the most perfect solos of all times. 👆👍✊
exactely ! great solo !!
Exactly! They lose the heart and soul. Akira has that in spades.
เฮฟวีแมทัลสุดยอดครับจารย์
Soldier of Fortune is an Hell of an Album
One of the best metal bands. They didnt get the recognition they deserve
My favorite Loudness album !
