Awesome job!!! YES! Look forward seeing you soon at the show :)
Can’t wait! 🤘🏻
YES!!
Yeah dude!!! Get Billy on stage
I am so happy for you man!
This is living the dream!!!!! 🤘
Letsss gooooo!!!! Thank you @dragonforce and thank you billy your gonna do great bro!
DragonForce, please allow him to release this version of your song, it’s killer. Nothing but respect.
It's up to the record company. Herman li actually got dmca playing one of the bands own songs on twitch.
@@solidsnakeandgrayfoxthe fucking irony 😂
I hate copyright so much
I don't understand why this version isn't on there, when there are like 10 different covers from other bands on there
@@samwilde8311 yeah its a good idea, but horribly executed. It should be that the creator of the song can choose instead of yt
This is incredible
omg hi natt
Hi, femboy
Who is this girl?
@@svengangert2683 THE best girl
Tf you doing here? 😂
This gave me goosebumps. The original was a chaotic journey of epicness. This cover is like a old timer remembering the days of those journeys and when it picks up at the end, it's like that old timer is throwing on their coat and going for one more round
Right? I'm usually vain in respect to covers that deviate form the original, but my God can this guy jam
@@nomadiccanuck3165 took the words out of my mouth lol
Amazing metaphor, you have a way with words! That picture in my mind adds a whole nother layer to the video.
Your comment is just beautiful, Nick.
DUDE YESSSS! I pictured like some endgame adventurer and his team all parting ways one last time or something. DragonForce is hands down one of my favorite bands
im fighting cancer since 2016..... im in the hospital AGAIN........ for i dont even know how long anymore...... i want to to thank you magical human beings for making this. no matter what version i find, it tears me up, and makes my heart want to blow up because of the the sheer beauty. i cant thank you people enough and tell you how eternally grateful i am to be be able to listen to these masterpieces! thank you so eternally much, Billy and Herman and all who make this a reality. You truly are are gods amongst humans. Thank you so very much
dude hoping youve recovered or recovering well man
Good luck man 😢
Cancer ain’t easy for ANYONE
-My son
You’ll get better man, you’re on my prayers 🙏🏼
Sending prayers your way bro!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
How cool is Herman Lee for playing along. Some may say he is showing off, but to me I see a great musician humbling himself and teaching others that he is no more special than anyone else. Good video by all involved.
It's not showing off when a pro does it, it's showing OUT
Billy win this round
Herman Li - not Lee
Showing off?? Look at that face he is like 'YES THIS DUDE IS GETT'N IT!"
Agree, especially at 2:00. He's clearly just trying to add a little of background melody, but keeps the singer in the spotlight. He goes crazy when it's guitars only, which is perfectly understandable.
People wanted a full version of Through The Fire and Flames
And you delivered it…LEGENDARY PERFORMANCE. Nice job Billy LETS GOOO
Under promised and over delivered
Well, kinda, instead of 16th notes we got like quarter notes, but he compensates by making the song only half as long. ;-)
Still, sometimes it's all about choosing the right notes to play and not about how many you play.
That guitar solo was so unexpected. There was something soft and comforting about it, yet it still felt in some way invigorating and epic. I really love when people do unexpexted stuff like that
Ditto my Dude!!!!! 😎
It almost felt like a Witcher song
Alternative name: Through the Hotel and California.
Absolutely love this!
Bro that’s fucking hilarious to me 🤣
Funny you say that because mashup bootlegger G3RSt did a mashup called Hotel California in the Fire and Flames. Found it youtube years ago but looking for it now it seems it got wiped off the site. They still have it for download on their website. It's a great mashup.
Edit: managed to find someone else's upload of it. Kinda surprised it has such a low view count.

The one by @djcummerbund
Please release it on Spotify 😭 i wanna listen to this everyday
Bruh this shit bangs hard. Li’s LED guitar is something straight outta cyberpunk. Amazing.
It's that vocal section where the most replayed shows. "So far away, we wait for the day" on the first chorus.
Vocals and transition are perfect.
Amazing to hear.
At 71 I continue my lifelong quest for great rock songs and I just found my latest one. Great work guys!
Keep rocking on man!
Can you pls make that playlist public, would be great for you to do so.
Rock on brother
Many ahead!A top of your favorites?
🤘👽🤘
0:46 - 0:49 still gives me chills after hearing this hundreds of times
The best part, it’s why I keep coming back
@@DanRadcliffeIOM same lol
One of the best songs that I’ve e ever listen
HOLY F%&K. Just wicked
Dude WHAT. Herman’s guitar lighting up on each fret was crazy, I’ve never seen that on a guitar before. Sick.
i need it right now
We need this on Spotify
*+ with the full version :)
On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign, we ride towards the fight
When the darkness has fallen down, and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight
On the blackest plains in hell's domain, we watch them as they go
In fire and pain, now once again, we know
So far away, we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
With resentment to their eyes
Running back through the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
To a life beyond the stars
In your darkest dreams see to believe
Our destiny this time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight
So far away, we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames, we carry on.
I wonder if people realize that this song is about war
@@caiobruno8006 yes indeed i think they do considering that the lyrics make it pretty obvious
@@caiobruno8006 it may be written about war; but it could easily have multiple interpretations...I got like 3 different explanations that it could potentially be....
The beauty of art and music is that its line that... never just one thing.
@@caiobruno8006 It's the struggle for a better world I would say. Battles can be different.
@@habsfan8768 Dave Grohl described it perfectly in very few words: "You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they'll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons"
I like this cover - I turned 70 in January and this song is one of my favorites for over a decade now. Seeing Herman playing with you was so very cool! Keep playing!
Lyrics:🎤
On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign, we ride towards the fight

In fire and pain, now once again, we know

So far away, we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard, now can we understand?
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For freedom of every man
So far away, we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
Thank you
Thank you ❤
The bridge vocals in “So Far Away, We Live For The Day…..” during the chorus gave me goosebumps
so good billy :) come to Brazil!
Come to Brazil!
Come to Brazil
R YOU BR? BR? BBBBBRRRRRRRR?
Can I come too!?
This is really a 'Come To Brazil' content.
I think you somehow recreated the musical soul of this song and brought its epicness into another context to show how good through the fire and flames actually is and was ever since! I'm sure many people just knew this song as a challenge in guitar hero and never noticed how charming and heroic it really is!! Very good job and shout-out to Herman li for joining you. Love this whole sing, greetings from Germany 🤟
I wish my German was as good as your English lol. Well said. The vocals are way better than the original version. The way he sings the chorus gives me chills. Love it!
Well said!
I have to echo the sentiment of the being well said, indeed.
Bro, how do you only have 120k followers, you should be famous with that voice and guitar skills. I'm sure you're going places in the future!
Because its heavily edited... guitar is fantastic tho
@@connorl7906 it’s not auto tune it’s an echo effect and relative pitch which almost every artist uses but he does have a video where he sings with no effect and it’s still amazing
This rendition is amazing. This needs to be on all media platforms.
Didn't expect this cover to hit me this hard. I actually teared up and I almost never do that. That raw emotion you put into your voice, it's beautiful.
I can`t even find the words to describe how incredible this performance is. Sounds like all the power you gained through stream-push-ups has funneld into one song!
0:47 I’ll be your replay button 😩😭🤗
Billy, I've been following you for a couple years now and as a fellow new jerseyan, it makes me so damn proud of you that you've come so far in your career. Your music is incredible and I hope you can reach the hights you've always deserved. Love you man.
Your short brought me here. I'm a bass player of 26 years, and now I'm a subscriber of yours! Man, you rock!!
That was incredible. Awesome production, skills, special guest - perfect.
@Michael Chabot he has videos without auto tune man, check em out.
@Michael Chabot why are you still hating on the guy ? Stfu and get a life buddy. Commenting on 3 different videos that he has a bad voice... 😅 Jealous much?
2:20 the way billy looked up made me so happy. That was pure excitement and passion right there. Loved every second of it ❤️🙌 thank you guys!
It's been a long time since a song has made me cry with how beautiful it is, but this song gets me everytime
Ur on repeat all day long Mr
Man I love seeing musicians come together, it really shows how much people can connect over concepts
His voice is absolutely jaw dropping
Holy crap, that was so sick. Billy killing it with Herman. Epic shredding. Pretty much the whole enchilada right there folks.
Herman Li seems like a really cool dude!
Love to Herman Li and DragonForce, but after hearing this song so many times, my favorite was the acoustic first half
Billy,
I never comment on anything, ANYTHING.
I found this through one of your shorts and it gave me proper shivers.
You have the most incredible voice and you are so talented.
This cover made me cry, I am really impressed, well done!!
Keep rocking!!
WOW!!! Billy, I always thought you were amazing. This video is the transition to the big time- now the world will discover what I have been enjoying and appreciating all this time! I happen to love Herman’s part in this video. Simply both a great song and amazing performance by you!
Is it bad that this made me tear up? The memories, nostalgia, everything that this song brings 🥲🥲🥲🥲
Amazing! TH-cam algorithm needs to boost this, this deserves way more views. So nice of Herman Li to shred with you, such a dope cover.
probably the best version of this song. absolutely oe of my favorites. moves me everytime.
This was absolutely bonkers! You rocked that song to the maximum and what an amazing way to represent this epic song and tune! Bless the both of you for this wonderful demonstration of amazing music, the one true universal language :)
No one’s gonna talk about how he got Herman Li to join him?!? This was legendary
I have never heard this song sung in such a way! Truly awesome!

Thx
Billy, Baby... You are RIDICULOUSLY TALENTED, man!!! I'm probably old enough to be your mama... ok, your grandma may maybe, and I've heard a lot of mad musicians, but you, my friend... I'm in AWE! I am so beyond thrilled to have subscribed to your channel. Blessings to you! Thanks for sharing your talent!
Wait until you hear the dooo
I totally agree and I could be his grandmother that was the first time hearing that song oh my gosh it brought me to tears awesome just effing awesome!!!!! I felt like it was going straight to my heart vibrating throughout my body my hair stood on end and then the tears started coming thanks Billy!!! 🙏😘😎
Someone needs to make a one hour version of this
Can't get enough of the chorus and the feels I get
Billy, I hope you see this. You are on the road to something amazing, man. I'm glad to have been here for so long. Love to you and the fam
Just found this. Incredible, collab is soo cool. Had it on repeat for the last half hour. Cheers!
How have I only just now find out about this man's. The fun and emotion he puts into the videos and music ❤️
S p o t i f y pls
Yes pls
@@Dex_Qcyesssss please!
*Aaaaaahhh! YOU DID IT!* 👏
This could truly end up being a breakout hit for you.
Won't be surprised if it becomes a viral sound on social media platforms eg. TikTok
Then on to the radio!
Wonderful voice and great musicians!
The original sound and everything was way way better
And if i was him i would do just guitar sound and vocal
Nothing else
In the Philippines, after 30 plus years,I finally went home in 2020, my biggest surprise was that the radio waves keep reprising popular songs since the 80's all the way up to 2020. A culture that values music, and keeps moving back to the middle. I live in the tri-state area, and stop listening to Z100 in 2018 when autotune crap became popular, and never went back. America needs a revival of Rock and Roll, and popular genres such as jazz, 80's, and 90's music. The music in those time have character. Awesome rendition Billy Wilkins.
We need this finally on spotify
And I realized I haven’t forgotten a single word…
That slightly dissonant riff falling down the neck at 3:15 was fucking delicious.
I remember i found billy at i think around 30k subs and i thought at the time was this man needs worldwide recognition so fucking talented so happy he got to perform tbis with herman li much love billy
Billy Wilkins moving up in the world, you love to see it boys.
I'm glad I came across this cover! You rock!!! and Herman was so cool doing this with you!!!
Finally! I’ve been waiting for this for months it sounds so good
I remember almost 10 years to this date thinking... "things will be ok one day." and this was the song I'd play before hitting the gym, texting that girl, or opening my textbook. Thank you DragonForce. And thank you Billy. This song will always hit.
this was just fucking fantastic, amazing, been watching you for years and have been wanting a Through The Fire And Flames for ages, I really feel like this could be a take off for you, and I honestly hope this blows up, the Vocals, Guitar Playing is just outstanding, the SFX on your vocals also just makes it sound great, the reverb really adds something, but honestly just awesome
What an absolutely GOAT rendition. 15 years after playing the original on Guitar Hero this version is like the embodiment of 15 years of growth and nostalgia and all the feels i cant even describe. Its like the same weary battler but looking back on his epic battle in the past. Simply amazing
Absolutely worth the wait. I really enjoyed the video and how you edited it. Herman's contribution to the video is on another level. Keep up the great work brother!!!
Skwisgaar Skwigelf [Heavy Breathing]
This is incredible! You are an inspiration to thousands across the world!
The original is epic and awe inspiring in its own right. But the lack of driving drums in this version gives it an emotional expression that just sent me in the best of ways! Well done and it's so cool to see Herman in on this too! Gonna listing to this version on repeat. "If he meant to say it in words he wouldn't have written the music"- Gustav Mahler
Yup. Worth the wait. Pure fire Billy!!! Or should I say Billies😁
Awesome... superb the way Billy and Herman play the guitar in this old classic rock song. Dam good rock voice awesome dude. DragonForce band Vets will be proud. Respects from India 🇮🇳
Sick! can't believe you collab'd with herman li, that's awesome.
Me listening to this as I’m walking along the coastline at sunset, the suns fading rays shining across the waves. Creating a breathtaking view of a sea of gems
And they witnessed the greatness. The greatness of....The CoCo Puff Kid.
This is what I call a memorable moment! The song and the melody remains in your mind after the first time that you hear it! And you just want to hear it again and again and again and again! I've been listening to this since this morning, on repeat! Went downstairs to have lunch, the song was still playing in my mind. It's dinner time and I still listening to this! It's just amazing! Your voice is special nad the way you sing this song is just out of this world!
It doesn't happen to me to hear such an impactful song too often!
THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME!!! DUDE YOU ROCK! You got a fan in me. Keep It up, You’re good
Glad I clicked on the shorts. It's two thirty on the morning. This song is a banger. Blown me at with the voice.
All I can say is just wow. I am a huge fan of Dragon Force, and you killed this song! It's been a while since a cover of a song blew me away just as much as the original. Thank you for that! Keep em coming!
On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign, we ride towards the fight
When the darkness has fallen down, and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight
Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel, through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell, bodies wasted on the shores
On the blackest plains in hell's domain, we watch them as they go
In fire and pain, now once again, we know
So now we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness, our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls
So far away, we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
With resentment in their eyes
Running back through the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
To a life beyond the stars
In your darkest dreams see to believe
Our destiny this time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight
And on the wings of a dream, so far beyond reality
All alone in desperation, now the time has gone
Lost inside, you'll never find, lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on
So far away, we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard, now can we understand?
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
For freedom of every man
So far away, we wait for the day
For the lives all so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames, we carry on
It needs to be on spotify asap
Who even knew we needed a breakbeat version of this song! Genius.
I could listen to this guy sing all day. What an amazing voice.
I'm not too big on DragonForce, but I really love this version. This needs to be on Spotify.
What an incredible cover! Drum&Bass is my favorite genre, and I was absolutely blown away when that drum track came in. I hope Spotify or iTunes gets this one day.
Amazing cover! My new favorite version besides the original!
Always nice to see talented people achieving nice things
Thats TWO that play the guitar like I do; after an accident in the early 1970s I could no longer play it like everyone else; thanks for the memories
This is fantastic! Was hoping to find it after you played it for that girl in your other video. Amazing stuff really!
It upsets me so much that it ends so fast😭 it’s so fucking good!!!!!
This is something quite special. Love it
Such a talent, amazing voice, great guitarist, immense energy & fun creativity. This man is what music is about
great video sir, thank you for the share, you held your own with Herman
You cranked the "emotion" dial on your amps to 11 for this one. Such a soulful cover.
The last part dnb and guitar is really fucking dope man u should post this cover on Spotify 👍🏻💕
Through the power of epic solos Herman Li does not age.
I like this better than the original! Awesome job :)
I have to agree with you, Stefanie. I liked the cover more than the original. Saying one version of a song is "better" than another is totally subjective.....In the end, it comes down to what YOU like the best, and in that respect no other opinions are particularly valid.
@Bar1 i used to think this ones better too, but then i got my hearing checked , and now the original feels better again, this is def a cool version of it tho , but ZP's voice is just 🔥
This is quite literally the musical equivalent of finding your old Guitar Hero Controller after nearly 10 years
This is the best music cover I've ever seen, This is stunning!
Was not expecting the drum and bass beat drop, sick af man, this is dope! Glad i randomly stumbled upon this tonight. Thanks for the content!
That was fire! Great stuff man!
