Riot
(Words and Music By Richie Kotzen)
I don’t wanna hear a word I just wanna live my life
But you keep standing in my doorway
So I can not escape the madness madness madness that you like
I can’t listen to the talk I don’t really wanna hear
You keep dividing all the people
You wanna propagate your madness madness madness in my world
I’m under fire Where’s my army?
We’ve got a riot going on
Circumstances are dire Lock and arm me
I’m standing on the front line front line O’ there’s a riot going on
Theres a riot going on… It’s our time
I can feel it in the street the tension rising right before me
We’ve got to educate our leaders and find a way around the
madness madness madness that divides
Woh No
We’re under fire Where’s my army?
We’ve got a riot going on
Circumstances are dire… Lock and arm me
I’m standing on the front line front line O’
We’re under fire Where’s my army?
We’ve got a riot going on
Circumstances are dire… Lock and arm me
I’m standing on the front line front line O’ there’s a riot going on
It’s our time (check your mind) There’s a riot going on (check your body)
everybody is insane always someone else to blame
Check your mind everybody There’s a riot, there’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on Theres a riot going on and on
We’re under fire Where’s my army?
We’ve got a riot going on
Circumstances are dire… Lock and arm me
I’m standing on the front line front line O’
I’m under fire Where’s my army?
We’ve got a riot going on
Circumstances are dire… Lock and arm me
Im standing on the front line front line O’ there’s a riot going on - Hudba
Funny how no one's praising the Bassist when he just KILLED it here!
yeah poor guy has to shred everything richie is doing on a bass.
True! These guys are as tight as it gets! Props to everyone...I've seen them live twice and they sound better live than on any recording.
bass props so sad
No doubt tho I for one said "Epic intro /outro riff too, and how he plays that on Bass is anybodys guess, ha. Way to go."
It's funny that a bass player playing anything other than some simple cheesy groove gets so much attention because most cant do anything beyond that. "Hey! This player approaches a guitar player's skill! How cool is that!" lol Seriously though. He did kill it.
How Richie doesn't have a billion subs and a hundred meters wall full of Grammys is still one of the universal mysteries to me ...
Professional music is specific to perception
Because people prefer half naked barbie dolls with zero talent, over REAL talent! No wonder the music industry has turned to shit!
True that
😍😍 love lt
Were is Ritchie from ? The feel is very Detroit .
Richie is a true talent. It's so hard to find any musician that can be at this high level singing and shredding at the same time. He's really something out of this world.
Kotzen is the shredder very few people know about but should.
I NEVER get tired of Richie. Ever.
For my money, RK is a close 2nd to Prince for talent, musicianship, & musicality. Just so badass! And Dylan is such a dynamite bass player! Seriously, this dude should be huge and hailed as one of the great talents of the last three decades. Kotzen is so beyond the usual contrived rock we're fed nowadays; he plays SO many different styles. Great songwriting, unbelievable playing, amazing voice... it makes me sad he's so marginalized in the rock scene.
IMHO Richie is better than Prince as far as stone cold musicianship goes but I would agree that Princes musicality (better song writer hitwise) was top notch! Absolute respect to Prince RiP
Very well put!!! Said this myself to so many people, so many times!
Killer band, I'd rather listen to you on your worst day than anyone else ? 👁️👁️👍❤️✌️😁
GODZEN! IM TOO BELONG TO YOUR ARMY!!!!!!!! U R UNIQUE MY FRIEND!
this song is way better than mainstream today and yet so underrated its sad
He is a really genius musician.. To evaluate him, whether he was born too early or too late.. It's surprising that there are still many people who don't know him. Composition, guitar, vocalist, musician who has nothing less than perfect
Thanks God. Good music still breathes.
thank god , i got this song on the first page again , I used to listen to this masterpiece since the release and I forgot about it
Can't decide if I like this trio or Winery Dogs better! Good thing we have both🤘🏼
For me this is better even though I love Billy Sheehan
This guy is so good that makes me wanna both play and quit playing the guitar....Genius!!
Go for the first option : Let him be a source of inspiration to keep on rocking !!
How cool is that bassist.
Best song, best guitar, Best singer, guitar player.. this just smokes the place. And the way you move.. hot hot hot hot dude..
His "finger shredder picking" is just awesome !
JerRock - Cours de Musique you don’t need a pick when your legato is that sick!
psychofunksoldier02
Does he use his finger nails or more pads of the fingers?
JerRock - Cours de Musique in fact I think he is one of the greatest finger shredders if not the best.
Always the skin, never the nails - unless you're a classical player
It's called alternate hybrid picking
Richie Kotzen, always a stellar performer/composer... to be expected. Bass Man? Fucking PHENOM. Keeping up with Richie's arpeggiation up and down the fretboards, with heavier gauge strings ain't an easy-peasy walk in the park. Props.
#:30 and so on........ what an incredible guitarist....... I'm really in awe.
Ritchie is one of the most soulful guitar players on the planet! One of the Top guitarists, vocalist, song writers, and performers also! He is the complete "Front Man"!! What a catalog!!!!
The Kotzen's formula:
Tasty riffs ✓
Soulful vocal & harmony ✓
Groovy rhythm section ✓
Well written lyric ✓ (I actually love the theme)
Goosebumps-inducing solo guitar ✓
Bonus: Beard ✓
Love and good luck.
Bedroom Musician and a global ARMY to enjoy his creations I can’t stop heard this one!
you forgot:
+100 Talent ✓
The beard is not the bonus. The beard is actually the most important aspect of making a Kotzen song.
Bedroom Musician bonus beard! Fucking funny man ! I agree with your assessment
tambourine
I rediscovered this guy from the winery dogs. Mr. Big, poison, and songs like you cant save me I already knew. But wjnery dogs gave more curiosity.
Holy hell, im glad for that.
He simply became my favourite artist. My mom also got me listen to him while I went on a visit to her house. She also got addicted.
I found a way to download of all of his songs, a mean ALL OF HIS songs. Of course Ill buy it, already bought it 2 albums. But I simply had to listen everything this guys done until now.
I demand you to come back to Brazil Richie.
I need to see you live man.
Keep up the great work.
Public commentary and great music... Yeah, he deserves his Signature Tele.
Haven't ever been let down , you smoke the best brother!!! ✌️🎸☢️👍
We all know what an amazing talent Ritchie is. No taking him for granted, that's once in a lifetime stuff right there.
What I want to especially praise here is the bass player though. He not only stays right with Ritchie but actually passes him in places with tasty fills to boot!
Color me impressed. Dude is outrageously gifted.
Thank you Richie...for being the best musician ever. You’ve got it all and you share it with the world. Absolutely love the song...it has everything...awesome instrumentation, infectious chorus, and plenty of funky groove. The only musician on the planet who consistently releases brilliant, soulful, joyous rockin’ music. This is why I’ll once again be flying 6,000 miles just to see you in concert later this month. Bangkok to Manchester. Cannot wait! Hope Riot will be in the set!!!
ballyrotter we are his army!
Godzen army!
he is still on fire!!!
This is ... the fabulous KOTZEN!!
This is great. In my opinion, Richie Kotzen is one of the most underrated and prolific rock singer/songwriters around. His great vocal and writing talent is often over-shadowed by his outstanding guitar playing. Not that that's a bad problem to have! It's always good to hear guitar-based music with catchy choruses.
Perfect summer song and that bassline is sooo groovy.
great Song í think the most important thing is the lyrics and concept the message there's a riot going on!how is a riot? how u put the concept in music ? Richie is like that when he play or say something else the music suit the concept of the song he played flamenco in the fire song or country or R&B or even no solo and an electronic sequence on another so that's the way of a true and experienced artist Richie is one of the best in all music history maybe the best for the completeness of his game and his ARMY are global !
Thats right the most import thing its the concept and communication and yes richie is awesome the best in the game of music! Groove feeling layback chops shred awesome ballads etc etc
I love Dylan Wilson too 😊🍻 He is great!
hahaha you dont know what you are saying
This is the best song that a lisning
Eat My dust indeed! One of the coolest players on the planet today. Stick Nuno and Mathias Eklunde ready
In Richie we trust.27.july Slovenia Richie live,here i come!!!
Message to all artists:Richie is a true example of do what you want and be successful !.write,play etc what u want . don’t what a company tells you or thinking what could sell,. richie has more than 25 records being amazing doing worldwide tours every year being his own boss so be free and be yourself don’t go with the tendency and be one more lamb ! This song never be in the top of billboard with Bieber Rihana etc but wow I prefer be like Richie all the time than be a tendency so many artists gone just because mtv don’t want to play them because they never repeat their one hit wonder .
this is real rock as it should be. thank you richie for being an inspiration to so many musicians🤟 love from glen ample from austria👏👏👏
Do not stop on what has been achieved and is growing---SUPER KOTZEN!!!!
HOLY SHIT! How do I not know who these guys are? They should be called the perfectionists
Just love his balance between superb technique, musicality, taste and rock vibe!!! Just been in one of his shows in Europe, speechless! just outstanding...keep inspiring Richie
Pure genius. Brazil loves ya.
Mito
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Yeah we sure do!
For someone who is bored of 4/4 time signatures I still like this!
nevermind, the vocals made me want to hit my head on the desk over and over.
...its regular...just another masterpiece out of the blue...ladies and gents, thats Richie Kotzen !
Ho-hum, right? Just business as usual. 😂
He does it again... Richie is the man...
I LOVE this man's brain! The lyrics that come out of it, his musical abilities, and the three of them together are amazing! I love the bass player who has mad skills as well and the drummer! I love everything about this. In my opinion, Richie does not sound like Chris Cornell.....he sounds like Richie Kotzen....rock, soul, blues, and a little jazz thrown in...his raspy voice is so not Cornell, may he Rest in Peace.
Best ever!
Who's in 2021?
That was great! Video and music. I think it was the best guitar clip of the year.
Thank you. I really enjoyed it.
I just know the god play music is look like this!
All these years been a fan of this guy he never released a bad song. Actually, he always did a flawless work. It's not different here. He is amazing! Hope that an album with Dylan and Mike doesn't be distant to become a reality. Richie Kotzen is such a god as Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix.
Neto Arman that’s right a god that’s why is Richie Godzen! And his army is Global!
Richie Kotzen n Band - COOL....!!!! Love from Indonesia.
Just. Wow. I’m a bigger fan every song... Wow. Yeah that bassist and drummer are gold as well.
My mind melted on the guitar licks from intro to outro! Richie didn't lose his shredding at all he just save it and then out of nowhere he blows everybody off.. Must have been ispired again jamming with Nuno and Paul Gilbert lately.

He is great Guitarist with wonderful voice... Richie Kotzen is Complate musician ever
We ARE Richie’s ARMY ! 👍 We’ve got your back! .....and your front, too!
hell yeah!
Richie is So underrated, something wrong with this world anyway back in the days people had J Hendrix and we got R Kotzen.
You will never find a better combination of a guitarist and singer. Its unreal. The guy doesn't even use a fucking pick
Why Kotzen isn't on everyone's fav list is beyond me? He's freakin amazing!!!
I still remember buying his instrumental debut album back in '89. Was wowed then and still wowed today.
The best guitar player and singer of our time !
Ivo Stan True!
True.. Check this guy as well. Ian Thornley - Big Wreck
Ritchie Kotzen needs to teach a masterclass in songwriting... hes just amazing at it
Johnny Depp + Tony Stark, is going to be the best fusion i've ever seen 'til now.
🤣🤣
Muito feliz em ver tantos comentários de fãs brasileiros apreciando esse monstro que é o Richie Kotzen!!
That main lick though, it is Insane!!! All i can say is that just respect....
It's so Winery Dogs. It's So Richie! I cant wait to the incoming album!
Most underrated singer/songwriter/guitarist on the planet!
Richie is the man.On top of being a great guitar player I think his voice may even be better.
Definitely. He's never mentioned - and he's one of most soulful rockers ever.
This has a cool 70's vibe to it.
Omg he knows he knows he simply creates the best!
Been listening this since it came out.
Who else?
How is every song better than the previous, when each song is perfect!?
Konstantin Ivanov just Richie Kotzen being Richie Kotzen
Awesome musicianship as usual from Richie Kotzen and his fellow bandmates.
Kicking arse....again. Thankfully RK has NOT found fame and fortune, and sold-out to commercially. One of the best guitarists on the planet IMHO. And I've been lucky enough to see him play relatively up close and personal (well, about 15 feet away) both with this band and the Winery Dogs. Hoping to do the same in Norwich, UK on the 23rd.
Holy cow! I'm guessing that the drummer plays guitar just like the bassist just like the guitarist. Stretching to believe that they all have a voice like Richie but I can't complain.
Amazing, Guys! It's a pleasure to listen such good music!
Funkadelic Rock and Soul! Dig it.
This must be the best guitar solo of 2018!
Please, come to Brazil! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷♥️♥️♥️
I'm from Brazil😊 Love your song✌
Great riffs, great song!! Could it be a winery dogs song easily!!👏👏👏
Pedro Prando Well noticed.
Richie double monster on guitar+vocals, and this is a nice tune!
Excellent playing by all of them. You can see how Richie was so influenced by Chris Cornell and Prince.
Good job of the bassist!!
Killer song! Top notch and nothing less from Richie Kotzen! Dylan and Mike are monsters as well!
Sweet bro's, so rare I like anything these days, love you guys tho, thanks
My god , love You Richie , here from argentina
Thank you, Richie, for your songs and music!
Yes!!! Another good music to practice and transcribe to! Thank you Richie!
Listening to this every day.
Genius! Master! Simply great!
My new driving home from work song! Awesome playing
EVERY SONG OF GODZEN IS A JEWEL FOR ME
My goodness, how come I never thought about calling him that!?!?!? thankssss
I INVENTED IT!!
You, gentlewoman, are a genius. I require the right to share the use of this fantastic nickname, if you may
THANKS!!!
Godzen i agree perfect nickname for Richie but i heard that before and it’s awesome of so many people call him “that” in differents locations of the world just because it’s so obvious he is a god he is amazing ,he is great ,he is powerful he is a creator all by himself ,plays all in an awesome level like in his song “paying dues” and in so many records I remember some interviewer in Spain call him “ the perfect man”!🙊🙈
Man this gorgeous guy never ages. Such in great shape too.
Went to see Richie with Vinnie Moore and Gus G. I am a huge Vinnie Moore fan but this dude was on another planet. I have buddies that went to GIT and Berkley and they all say this dude is the shit!!! Amazing!!
Olá Richie, posta mais videos, sou seu fã, você é um artista maravilhoso, precisa ser mais visto pelo mundo. um grande abraço de seu fã
Richie strikes again! Awesome song and video
Can not compare jeff beck with anyone. He has a very distinctive style
Herman Singh So why did you mention Jeff Beck?
That groove is SICK, then the melodic chorus kicks in.....WOW. He put together a killer band with this. Bass player is as in the pocket as Richie, and the drummer is mature (and smart) enough to stay out of the way of those riffs, and just play for the song.
We're living this song.
Olá Richie, sou do Brasil e um grande admirador do seu trabalho,parabens e um forte abraço!!!
Perfect band. Awesome music.
I have all Richie Kotzen record's since day one; and never get bored, I don't know why!? but with him I preferred live'it that way, he has it's own style, and dominates all styles; he is the total package as a musician. 🎸
Wowwwwww Perfect. I'm Thailand. I can not type in English.
