After leaving RCA records, Daughtry is now independent and have total control of music they wanted to pursue. It is the right path. I mean look at his latest two songs, World on Fire and now this, Heavy is The Crown. They have reverted back to heavy rock, after two very poppish latest albums.
That is why i felt he was catering to housewives!! OMG this is what i imagined he would be since Idol!!! Now I will listen to all he puts out! I got the first two Daughtry Albums, but was disappointed he wasn't this rocker! Love it! Thank you for sharing that, now I understand. I hate labels!
@@carrieanne5415 Exactly. I remember Daughtry said that during those latest two albums, he was pressured to release songs that could stay in top 40 charts. I am not sure if RCA played a role in this but I fee the environment there could play a huge Role. He also said that after radio stopped playing songs that is guitar led, he started be pressured on should I change the sound? It got to the point he started second guessing himself. Now that he is out he is full control of what he wants without having to feel pressured whether it stays on chart or not
@@alvinbuana4628 I am almost certain RCA would have played a roll in it. Hell back in the '80s the labels were even telling musicians how to dress. Example, Anne and Nancy WIlson. Nancy is still scarred over it (because of the weight gain at the time)
We all know United States need this song for the Americans that we lost today. May those soldiers know that they did not die in vain they were there on a mission to get people to safety. May the Lord bless their souls and their love ones and I pray to God that our civilians and our military and the Afghani nationals who need our help get the help and God bless Daultr
I know right I’m glad there still around I started listening to them when I was elementary school through high school and still to this day I still listen to them they are amazing
I was not a fan of the last album. Baptised was fantastic and a nice change, but Cage To Rattle was unbearably generic and sub par compared to the previous four albums. So glad they’re back to this sort of sound again.
I'm so glad he left that label too!! I'm in love with with his music again! He was my number 1 artist for his first 3 albums and when he got to the 4th and 5th I was lost on him because it wasn't the same. But these 2 new songs have brought me back to that feeling that has been missing. I honestly can't wait for the album to come out!
It is so refreshing to hear Chris break away from his label and have the freedom to rock once again. The world needs more “real” emotional filled music and less fluffy emotionless songs. Real music is a powerful thing. LOVE THIS!!
@@kilonovx-ray9382 You are not the odd man out lol Women reminisce as well lol Daughtry is AMAZING! Just took my kids to see him tonight for their first concert@ It was PHENOMENAL!!!
@@kilonovx-ray9382 Thank you! My daughter will be 14 in 2 weeks. We found Daughtry's first cd ( that was mine) in the garage on a box that had been there probably since we moved in 14 years ago lol she started listening to it and fell in love lol Then my 12 yr old did too! It was the perfect first concert for them 🙂 Keep giving your daughter good music to listen to 🙂 Most of the stuff these days is crap lol Take care 🙂
Just shared this version instead of the studio version with someone who might play this with me. It's more raw and human. Not that the studio one doesn't melt my face.
Never needed any reason to find deliverance Like a cancer running through my veins, oh, it's never gonna give in See them march like lambs to the slaughter Toy soldiers line up on the altar I was never meant to drink that water They'll remember me, when I'm underground Heavy is the crown Never pause, never let them bleed you out Are they still standing when they try to bring the castle down I'll never bow down Heavy is the crown When the weight of the world crashing, pushing you closer to the edge (Closer to the edge) You find a way to get a little bit stronger, to fight off the demons Yeah, well See them march like lambs to the slaughter Toy soldiers line up on the altar, I'll rise, hell or high water You'll remember me, when I'm underground Heavy is the crown Never pause, never let them bleed you out Are they still standing when they try to bring the castle down I'll never bow down Heavy is the crown Everything will fade away Well, the love that's in this world is meant to stay Heavy is the crown Never pause, never let them bleed you out Are they still standing when they try to bring the castle down And I'll never bow down Heavy is the crown (heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown, oh) Heavy is the crown (heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown oh) (Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown oh) Heavy is the crown (heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown oh) (Heavy is the crown, heavy is the crown oh) (Heavy is the crown) Heavy is the crown
Can he actually write a song where every word doesn’t rhyme with “er” and “own” I know it’s not possible to write anything new anymore in English anyway. But cmon there’s a reason nicklesback is hated.
@@BillyBob-gt3bb as a songwriter, you know which syllables you emote that sound the most powerful. That is a deliberate attempt for him, writing songs that have those sounds on the end. You're pretty intelligent to pick up on that without knowing that this is how many songwriters operate.
Serious thanks to everyone that made this shit possible to even happen in the first place! Thanks to the crew behind the scenes of this video shoot as well!
It is not very often that a performer hits all 8 octaves when they sing, but Daughtry can and does hit all 8 in almost every among the sings! The most underrated voice of our generation
Thanks so much for the support,it really makes me feel better and loved. Reaching out to my fan she to my tour soon... This is my private email chris4daughtry@gmail.com
Now that's the Daughtry I remember!!! Thanks to RCA, I had virtually stopped following his work. Standing on his own, he can finally produce music that hits with authority!!!
His voice. The band. A damn good song. It's a perfect combination. This is what should be trending #1 not all that bullcrap from rappers mumbling, or tiny girls talking about a broken heart.
He truly is. I remember when he was on AI that one of the judges said he was a producers dresm bc his tone is just perfect for recording and it truly it. He has such a distinctive memorable voice. Truly bad a$$.
I totally get it been there all my life. It's cause Lord is going too use you in a powerful way. I know that God has told me just that hang in there I will be praying for you. God protection and many Blessings.
Thanks you for supporting and loving my music I’m very grateful and Appreciate ❤️ you I would love to hear from you Text me... (971) 261-0685 or chat me up on WhatsApp!!!!
'World On Fire' got me so excited to see what else comes from Daughtry. Feels like he / they are making music with real passion behind it again. Can't wait to see this all live!
Chris is a rockstar!! So great to see him break free of his label and be who he wants to be!! This guy can sing anything! That's why everyone wants him on stage as a feature! Crazy talented😘
When we talk about passion in music this is it.you just never stop regardless.its not abouut the money but being able to place your output and talent and showcase the world. Daughtry thank you
I appreciate you so much...This month I'm reaching out to my fans because of my tour soon....hope to hear from you. This is my personal email chris4daughtry@gmail.com
I still remember their killer performance live in my hometown Rockford IL at the old metro center, now known as the BMO center. He jumped off of the stage right in front of me and I was shook!! Beautiful talented man and I swear my boyfriend and him are twins! Wish I could show pictures
Wow oh wow oh wow oh 👏😮!!!!! Chris hasn't changed his stage presence on stage and never will !!! His voice is lot stronger now and I am proud to be one of his number one Fan❤❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘
Chris if you can read this: I'm so very sorry. I lost my mum to cancer almost 3 years ago. Your music helped me in my time of grief. All I can do is wish you strength. No words are comforting when you've lost close relatives. Bless you xxxx
Wow. I don’t know how I ended up here. First time ever hearing this man. This song hit me in so many places. His voice is absolutely amazing. You’re blessed my man 💯 💪🏾
The reason he didn’t win idol is that he didn’t want the constraints he would have had on him had he won. He would have been forced to make the music the producers wanted him to make, so he left.
@@teresaterry62 Thanks you for supporting and loving my music I’m very grateful and Appreciate ❤️ you I would love to hear from you Text me... (971) 261-0685
This song is a message to anyone. No matter how tiny or how large, our individual crowns are all heavy. That's life. Beautiful music. Hard, heavy and touching. 👍🏼
I saw him in Jacksonville, Florida. I do believe that was about 12 to 15 years ago? Yep. When he was just getting started. The man has not lost what I loved from the very beginning.
I always wanted to see them, spent 8 years in the Army and every time I came home from the deployment while sitting in C-17 was listening "home". Long story short just went to a Daughtry concert in Vegas. Chris is so humble and his voice is amazing. You need to hear them live. The new album is amazing too. Super happy I went to see them. Thank you for that experience.
Crazy thing...I listened to this video yesterday. I was kinda distracted; multitasking. I initially thought I had clicked on the lyric video. Only half-way through the song did I realise it was the live video. Thing is, I didn't even notice a difference. The studio version and the live performance sound almost exactly alike. Daughtry is one powerful vocalist & performer. I've been a fan since high school (~10years ago). One of the best decisions I've ever made!!!
Thank You Daughtry for keeping rock alive and being "You" and not letting the music puppets make you someone that your not!!! I've loved Daughtry since the beginning and always will support them!!!
I think this song is about how Daughtry ,never gave into or sold his soul for the music industry! He says ,they will remember me ,when i am under ground! Love him so! Still sexy too!
Bro is sick live, there’s nothing worse than going to see your favorite artist and being disappointed. You won’t be disappointed seeing daughtry that’s for sure lol
