    They dont play this song like Myles said it’s a bit hard but it’s also a experimental song for them, not a usual song. Basically the lyrics are a conversation between Myles and Mark about belief. Myles is a agnostic and mark is a believer. Check out blackbird, cry of Achilles, my champion, in loving memory so basically any song of them 😂

    Alter Bridge are huge over here in the UK, they have been playing arenas and are always at the top of the bill on the big rock/metal festivals in Europe, however for some reason their don’t get the attention they deserve in the States.
    The lead’s singer Myles Kennedy was originally in a band called the Mayfield 4 who toured with Creed back in the 90. The rest of Alter Bridge were in Creed and when they split up Mark Tremonti put AB together.
    Myles is also the singer with Slash they have some killer tracks of their own and there are some amazing videos online from live shows of Myles performing GnR and Velvet Revolver with Slash.

      You’re 100% correct, the Amsterdam version BLOWS WEMBLEY AWAY! That’s not to say it’s Myles’ fault, he was battling bronchitis so when you consider that, it’s a phenomenal performance BUT when you’re looking for just pure vocal power and emotion, nothing can touch the Amsterdam version

    Came here for Ginger, Stayed for the reaction!!! In all seriousness though, Alter Bridge has been my favorite band for almost 15 years, especially after finding out that Myles is an agonistic (as I am an Atheist personally) but I have followed Mark Tremonti since the late 90’s with Creed and then with this insanely talented group of musicians in Alter Bridge, and his supremely underrated band Tremonti (more metal). I hope you react to Blackbird, it was a song written as a tribute to Myles’s very close friend Mark Morris who passed away from cancer as they were completely the song/album. As someone who lost my mother 3 years ago to undiagnosed pancreatic cancer it has taken on a whole new importance. Their music helped me get through a couple deployments during my service which I will always appreciate! Thank you for the great reaction!

    The members of this band except the vocalist were originally part of CREED, which was a 90s band. Myles Kennedy is the vocalist, and when Creed stopped, the members joined him and they formed Alter Bridge in the 2000s. (THIS BAND IS INCREDIBLE) 🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥

  • @ohwaitwhatsthis1327

    I'd wager it was Creed that they reminded you of. When I first heard them, I got a heavy Creed vibe, understandably, but then Miles started singing and I thought "thank you Jesus" this is what I always wished Creed could be. Just my two cents. Great reaction as always, cheers!

    That note at the end that Myles hits is better than on the album.
    They have so many good songs.
    They were formed from the ashes of Creed around 2004. They got rid of Scott Stapp and got in Myles Kennedy

    The lead guitarist is Mark Tremonti a guitar God and a song writing genius. He also has a band of his own called Tremonti that he fronts and they just released their 5th album called Marching in Time. You should watch the single release video of the song If Not For You. He started this band cause he had too much music and some of his stuff didn't fit for Alter Bridge. Another epic band.

    While watching other songs a thumbnail for your reaction to this was shown and I had already watched it and really enjoyed. I hadn’t left a comment so I thought I would now. Having said that, I noticed it said comments were 6 months ago and wondering why only some 7,000 odd views when you have far greater subs. Maybe your subs have grown tremendously over this period but I usually go back through and watch any that take my fancy. This song would have to be in top 10 songs I’ve heard this year, so it leaves me slightly perplexed as to why so few views???? I know that is not a question easily answered, just curious. ❤️🤘🎸🇦🇺
