This song is part of the Operation Mindcrime Crime album. It's a concept album it's hard to put this song in perspective unless you listen to the whole album. Worth a listen its outstanding.

@robyfiorili Год назад

Exactly. It's a masterpiece I bought in 1988, when I was 16. Still have it

@garyclark9618 Год назад

Stole the words right from my finger's? Yep 😁 A true masterpiece!

@SkipFrontzJr Год назад

THIS

@angelabordack Год назад

Absolutely on point ☝️

@purplekat5864 Год назад

You missed the last little spoken part at the very end after they say, ,"Revolution". After about a 20 second pause, Geoff (as the character Nikki) says, "I remember now." This is the LAST song on the album. It's one long story, so without hearing the album's songs in order, you won't get the full lyrical impact. A perfectly written, sung, and executed album!

@metalmark1214 Год назад

The entire Operation Mindcrime should be done since it's a concept album.

@gaylasuemendez6360 Год назад

Yes. You need to see listen to the whole album and see the concert. Deeply religious an deeply political.

@bennorth5050 Год назад

One of the best voices of rock 🤘

@eugenemotes9921 Год назад

Facts ✌️😎

@S7GraveDigger Год назад

Since this is the Final Song of the world's Greatest Concept Album (From beginning to end tells an entire story), and you both being such HUGE lovers of music and real musical and vocal appreciation, I Personally believe you should do a "Full Album" reaction of Queensryche "Operation Mindcrime"... This way you can understand the entire story. You will not regret it. You will be so glad that you did. Please!!!!

@vennexx Год назад

Themes keep reoccurring and it makes more sense. The musical quality and vocal quality of this album cannot be missed. Even if you don't do a video, listen to it all. It's truly one amazing piece of work.

@williamjamesayers7719 Год назад

Geoff Tate was classically trained. So that gives you the opera talent. The official video will give you something of a great storyline from Queensryche's album OPERATION:MINDCRIME, one of the BEST concept albums ever made.

@grobin3745 Год назад

Yeah so, he had a famous voice coach (David Kyle), but I cannot find a single reference to him being "classically trained" (like Julliard?) anywhere. There are tons of folks who parrot that he has over and over, but nothing more. Geoff himself said in an interview that he "studied voice" and thought he might become an opera singer one day. That interview was pretty recent. Back in the 80s, he never mentioned it. Like Rob Halford and Ronnie Dio, there has never been confirmation from the singers themselves how and where they studied. With Geoff, he had a great coach/voice teacher.

@williamjamesayers7719 Год назад

@@grobin3745 the comment wasn't about singing opera but being classically trained.

@troywilkinson160 Год назад

Thank you @robin. Finally someone got the facts Straight.

@princeofcats6883 Год назад

Yes! An immediate like. Queensryche has MANY hits. Edit: you didnt hear the entire opening. This is a concept album. Theres a story behind this song. Definately do a "Queensryche Operation Mindcrime" series.

@arnoldcox9128 Год назад

This is a great album for a long road trip and yea Geoff has some fantastic vocals

@cinnamon962 Год назад

Every word. I know every word to this entire album. OPERATION MINDCRIME is a freaking masterpiece!!!!!

@sharidocherty3995 Год назад

Me too, funny thing is when watching TV show that involve hospitals setting you hear Dr Brown ,Dr J Nebolton Brown

@funandgames7847 Год назад

You should do the whole album of Operation Mindcrime it's one long story from being to end I think you would enjoy it. Have a great weekend

@FreeMTrider Год назад

Queensryche was hitting their prime and a very tight band. By Building Empires tour, they were hitting a level not many bands could achieve. They played this entire album and had the audience glued to the Mindcrime story they were telling. Geoff Tate had you believing it. I was lucky to see it a few times.

@jamesnorthup7717 Год назад

This singer is amazing! This album is definitely in my top ten of all time! I wore it out in the 80's!!

@zebra3694 Год назад

Luv your reactions.....I would love to see you guys do a album reaction to Operation Mind Crime. It shows how good theses guys song writing really was. Keep puttin in the work....love you guys.

@billwicketvogel1787 Год назад

I think they would break this album down and love it !

@michaelmcnair7624 Год назад

This is one of the last great "Rock Operas"...like "The Wall" or "Tommy." The whole album is an entire story and this is the end of it. If you had let it play you would have heard him say, "I remember now..." He is in a straight jacket, in a psych ward, under arrest. On the beginning of the album, he is the same way and says the same thing, "I remember now." So it's a story of the events that lead him to this, it comes full circle. I saw them do it LIVE twice, to perfection. The entire album, non stop...start to finish.

@lonnyamendolea4943 Год назад

Don't forget that they continued the story 18 years later when Nikki was released from prison and went after Dr X for revenge on Operation Mindcrime 2. I saw them back to back nights front row in Orlando when they did that tour. They played both albums in their entirety with actors on stage for all of it. One of the best shows I have ever seen in my life.

@cassandrareid496 Год назад

Geoff Tate has the most amazing voice. Queensryche has a lot of great songs, would love to see a reaction to a few more.

@amoco14 Год назад

Wow, I was listening to Operation Mindcrime last night, Queensryche has to be my favorite band. You all need to hear the whole album to understand the songs, It's all a story.

@nitro_001newman2 Год назад

This is the last song on the album and the ending of the story. Without giving to much away, he’s now in a mental institution. “Straight jacket memories, sedative highs.”

@Jp421JP Год назад

STOP. the whole album is a masterpiece. It’s meant to be heard in it’s entirety, even if just on your own. If you listen to individual song songs you will ruin it for your self. Trust me. Go listen to the whole thing. It’s amazing.

@blackholeodyssey1070 Год назад

What he said…😉

@GentleGiantJason Год назад

Eyes of a Stranger is the end of a story told from the beginning of the album. Basically at the end of the album the main character is shocked by what happened and is describing his change.

@karlbecker8775 Год назад

One of my favorite bands growing up. I saw them live on this tour. Epic!

@sneezindragon Год назад

Yeah, what the others said. One of the best metal/rock albums ever. Lots of great songs on this, as well as their other albums. More please! Love your reactions.

@billgatt7816 Год назад

Now please listen to the entire Mindcrime album in its entirety. Then you will know the context of the song and understand where it fits in the Mindcrime story.

yes, the album should be listened to in its entirety . but, glad you’re back on Queensryche , BJ rocking out on this one🤘🏼. love you guys

@JayBee-JB69 Год назад

When he looks into the mirror, he doesn't even recognize the person that he has become anymore. That's why looking into the eyes of a stranger.

@GunnerSG Год назад

as everyone will tell you this is a song that is a part of a full concept album storyline that should be listened from front to back, you're hearing the end of the story FIRST !!! Time to review the whole 'Operation Mindcrime" album pretty pretty pretty pleeeeeasssseee !!!!

@karlschmitt6359 Год назад

You are listening to Geoff Tate, in my opinion, the best metal singer out there, but the whole band is phenomenal! I was introduced to Queensryche in the 80's and Operation Mindcrime and The Warning are two of the greatest metal albums ever made! I'm not sure how many octaves Geoff has, I think it's 5 and he can sing opera as well! One of my favorite bands, thank you for your reaction!

@hamfox9714 Год назад

Saw Geoff Tate in Bristol va in December. He was absolutely phenomenal , his voice is at least at 95% of what it was back in the day. An amazing experience in a small venue with a lot of interaction with the crowd.

@karlschmitt6359 Год назад

@Hamfox I started out with that ep that has Lady Wore Black on it, great album!

@bmrepass Год назад

I remember everyone rockin this Summer'88 Queensr¥che from my hometown☆Bellevue/Seattle

@raymondreid4987 Год назад

Bj and Asia, the operation mindcrime album must be done in it's entirety because it is a concept album about a person who is being manipulated and brainwashed into becoming a serial killer. You must start at the very beginning.

@bovillacis8120 Год назад

The solution to everyone's problems lies in the mirror. Gotta fall in love with the reflection, which is difficult when we don't recognize who it is.

Broken link. This is their best song...but you chose a bad link that's missing a good portion of the intro.

@Dano_in_Texas Год назад

As many have said, this song is the final song of their concept album "Operation: Mindcrime." In my opinion, it's best listened to, and understood, if you take a break from everything, and listen to the album, in its entirety...paying special attention to the lyrics, too get a fill grasp on the story.

@keithsowder4308 Год назад

If you liked his range on that, give a listen to Queensryche's "Take Hold of the Flame"

@MegaHusky99 Год назад

You really need to do take hold of the flame live in Tokyo, incredible live

@purplekat5864 Год назад

There is a tiny bit more at the end if this song. He says, "I remember now." This is the last song in the Mindcrime story. As such, you won't get the FULL meaning of the lyrics until you hear the whole story. But you made some insightful comments about the angst and pain in Geoff voice, as the character, Nikki, realises that he's done so many things he regrets that he doesn't know himself anymore. He's the stranger. Even if you don't do a reaction of the whole album, I hope you'll listen to it just for yourselves. It's truly EPIC! And no one can convey emotion like Geoff!

@HocusPocusFocus69 Год назад

Those vocals 😳😳😳 That drum and bass groove 😳😳😳

@serenshadow89 Год назад

This song is part of the Operation Mindcrime album, a concept/visual album that is one long story. This one is an introspective on Nikki's character (the main character of the story) that provides the climax for the Mindcrime story. Basically, Nikki is looking into a mirror, and realizing that he doesn't recognize the person he's become. The ultimate depths of depression, leaving Nikki broken and utterly alone. And it ends, of course, with an audio montage of the entire album.

@eugenemotes9921 Год назад

Kick Ass Album and Song 😎🤘

@petebrown6356 Год назад

Just one song in a complete story, where every song is another part of the story - album called "Operation Mindcrime". A classic album - I highly recommend listening to the entire thing.

@edwardstonick4898 Год назад

Great analysis of that song guys! 👍👍😎

@tristanrl1940 Год назад

Do you not recall another tune by queensryche you had reacted to called ‘Take Hold Of The Flame’? You had been equally impressed with THAT! Same singer and band

@mikecappadocia5959 Год назад

The Payolas Eyes of a Stranger is really good too

@chrisgrose8712 Год назад

Hear this live and enjoy another level!

@rolandorojas3800 Год назад

You have to listen to the album in its entirety to understand it. It's my favorite song in the album.

@jonathanlay8746 Год назад

And many others have said, this is the LAST SONG of *THE* greatest concept album of all time (well... okay, debatable, but MY favorite). The main character, Nikki, is bemoaning that he no longer knows himself, because of the madness he's been drawn into... no more spoilers, though. I KNOW it's not what you guys usually do, BUT... PLEASE think about doing the whole album -- in order. It's the most linear concept album too, so the story is clear and makes sense, etc.

@richwilson8658 Год назад

more plz !!!

@richwilson8658 Год назад

got to listen to whole album it's a story.

@louvuttion Год назад

This is from operation Mindcrime, which was a great album. Also, the other album empire is amazing.

@brettmarlar4154 Год назад

Operation: Mindcrime is a must listen from beginning to end in headphones, for the full experience. It will make infinitely more sense when you listen to this song after taking Nikki's journey.

@ericcarlson9905 Год назад

Love it, I like the respect you can put on it even though it's probably not your first go to...cool stuff!

@robinschulze934 Год назад

You’ll be surprised to find out that the singer studied opera !!! And this album is one whole story from the first song 🎶 to the last!!! Now if u would like to hear how far his voice can go , go listen to “ Take Hold Of The Flame “ live 1984 !!!!

@Frostrazor Год назад

@3:22 yes BJ has it right - he didn't recognize himself - as he saw shame and disgust of thing(s) he had done. This entire album is magnificent! Not a bad song on it. IMO their best album by far! Though there are some great gems on Empire. Like others have said - this is one song of a story in a concept album. Just what he did is part of the bigger story throughout the album. Early on the lyrics say: ll alone now, except for the memories Of what we had and what we knew Every time I try to leave it behind me I see something that reminds me of you Every night the dreams return to haunt me So he got some baggage and his image reflection doesn't lie when you see yourself from the outside.... May I suggest swapping your left to right mic inputs. It's eerie looking at BJ on (viewer's) right side to hear his voice in the left ear, and vice-versus. I know from your sitting position it's correct, but we're watching you like a mirror would see so it's reversed to us.

@pudgydaddy Год назад

It's a shame the song started in the video they watched half-way through the intro instead of the proper beginning. Add the fact they didn't know this song is the last on a concept album means they were thrown off by the ending of this song as well as the overall topic of it. Such a great song!

@nedasmith4585 Год назад

Are they talking about the song that started when the video started playing ?

@jb281723 Год назад

no question, Take Hold of the Flame live from Tokyo has to be next

@wadepackard9730 Год назад

Yeah - like others have said, it's hard to get the full context of what Nikki (the main character in the album) is talking about if you're just listening to one song. I''d love to see a reaction to the entire album. It's worth a listen from front to back - an absolute masterpiece. (BTW, Geoff Tate, the lead singer, was a classically trained [opera] vocalist before setting out with Queensryche.)

@eugenemotes9921 Год назад

Asia and BJ, Geoff Tate learned from his Mom, who was an Opera Singer 😎🤘

@troywilkinson160 Год назад

No, no she wasn’t. His aunt was but he don’t learn from her. He studied voice.

@keithsowder4308 Год назад

As a bunch of others have mentioned here. This is a concept album, and to really appreciate it you have to listen to it from beginning to end.It tells a story of drug addiction, intrigue and the hypocrisy and corruption of politicians and religious leaders. The amazing thing is nearly 40 years after it's release...it's more relevant now than EVER ! And in my opinion ( and a lot of Who, Pink Floyd & Iron Maiden fans would disagree ) it's the greatest concept album of all time ! My theory on music is this...good songs make you do one of three things make you move, make you feel or make you think. This entire album makes you do all three ! It's the "Mona Lisa" of Metal concept albums !

@Bucketheadgoat Год назад

As others have said this needs to be listened to in its entirety to truly appreciate this album. Once you've done then react to anything from their Rage for Order album!
