Geoff Tate is back with his stunning vocals with Queensryche's most popular song in its setlist history, "Eyes Of A Stranger". I wish I had the opportunity to listen to Operation: Mindcrime all the way through without breaking things up, and this song wrapping up the story is just a topping on the cake. Such a phenomenal ending!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Queensryche performing "Eyes Of A Stranger" for the first time in their official music video.

Damn...I was about to say that no metal concept album touches it. Then I read a few more comments...but yes, Abigail is def one that ranks right up there too, but if you combine the actual album, commercial success, and the tour then Mindcrime is probably the best. Also one of the greatest concerts I've seen. Saw them twice that year. They opened for Metallica on the Justice tour. Metallica already played a min of 3 hrs back then, but you had that and Queensryche playing the entire album, from start to finish, as the opening act. Good, good times.

Exactly. Listen enough, and Mindcrime feels part of you. At that point, you discover that the EOAS radio version--what she reviewed--feels very abrupt, like it's missing the richest dimension of what the Ryche is offering through this masterpiece. (Her intuition was spot on, that it felt like there should have been more to the song.) It'd be delightful to her her take on this same song after getting to know the story. It's like the difference between reading a poem, and feeling it.

She makes several references to the lyrics here. Coming from a concept album you can't look at the lyrics strictly from this song but need to look at them in the context of the whole album. The lines about him looking into the mirror and staring into the eyes of a stranger are about him not recognizing himself as he remembers everything he did in the story. The line "rosary wrapped around your throat" is a reference to an earlier song where he finds Sister Mary hanging. The character in the story is definitely tortured.

Operation: Mindcrime is the perfect album. I can't emphasize that enough - and would listen to it on repeat.

Tate was on another level, vocally, during this era. Very few vocalists in this genera could compare - then or now. As good as the vocals were, I think the writing of DeGarmo and the rythm and pocket that Rockenfield and Jackson laid down are often overlooked. The guitar work never overpowers the musicicality of these songs. This lineup was as complete a package as existed in this era.

The back and forth vocals tell the tragic story of their failed attempt to get away from the life they’re stuck in together.

Yes that’s right. This album is a concept album. Each song is like a chapter in a book or a movie scene. In this clip the music got cut out early. The cinematic sound design was deliberate ahead of many bands at the time. Tons of production value. It was and is only done by progressive bands. Back when listening to music for hours and buying albums was an activity to loose yourself and take a trip. If you listen 🎧 to the whole album from the start you be assured goosebumps throughout 👌🏼 I also enjoy the singing and musical approach in Rage for Order 1986. Recommended listen too 👋.

This song has been giving me chills for 35 years and my Daughter left the show with a new favorite metal singer. Thank you for doing these videos and giving recognition to one of the all time greats in metal. They are genuine , exciting to watch and It keeps these songs and memories alive. Just love it!

Geoff Tate in the '80s, '90s and even early 2000s was unstoppable. There was nothing he couldn't do. His voice has aged a little over the years, but having seen him live a few times in the past few years, he's still one of the best vocalists out there.

This is probably their single most popular tune besides "Silent Lucidity" but, I'm telling you, and your other listeners, that "Suite Sister Mary" from the same album (but you'll want to see the LIVE version from "Operation: Livecrime") is the one you will be stunned by. You know I've suggested it a lot, I hope your other listeners will help me by requesting this particular Queensryche cut. But thank you for this one, too. :)

Eyes of a stranger is a great entry to Operation: Mindcrime. But I agree Suite Sister Mary is the highlight of the album from its lyrical quality, vocal range and just compositional greatness. It’s only downside is it’s SO important to the story of the album, that it feels strange sitting in ONLY on that song, where it needs the full album (IMHO) for maximum immersion. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Operation: Mindcrime is a front to back masterpiece. Fates Warning is also one of the godfathers of prog metal. I got into both bands around the same time in the 80's and I fell in love with the genre back then. The intricacies, time changes and mix of classical elements were huge for me as a kid. I was able to see both bands on tour a couple years ago and it was kind of a dream come true. Both bands were amazing. Ray Alder (singer for Fates Warning) still sounds amazing 30+ years later. Of course, as does Todd LaTorre.

Operation: Mindcrime, is still one of the coolest albums ever written. Period.. Such ambiance, and sonic perfection. The writing on this album is so creative, and sets such a mood, throughout the entirety. The production value is second to none. Sadly, Queensryche gets overlooked when conversations about the greatest artists in metal occur. Queensryche will never be duplicated. Many have tried, and failed miserably. At least once a week, I drum along to this album, just because it slaps so damn hard. Good warm-up, for any newer drummers out there…

“It sound like he’s in some sort of mental institution.” Yep. The album starts and ends in a mental hospital. Operation: Mindcrime is an absolute masterpiece both musically and lyrically and possibly the greatest concept album ever written. Geoff Tate’s vocals carry so much emotion throughout the album. I saw them years ago on the Operation: Livecrime tour where they played the album front to back and it was amazing. I still listen to the CD regularly and I urge you to find a copy, not “Live at the Moore” which is good but Operation: Livecrime is better in my opinion. It’s a magnificent performance by the entire band but Tate’s vocals are just phenomenal throughout.

I watch enough of your videos to know you love stories. And Geoff Tate is playing the main character of a tragic love story. Also, Operation: Livecrime their release of the entire album live. I still have the VHS and CD of Operation: Livecrome box set on my Bookshelf. lol. i don't have a VHS or cd player anymore :) This album has been on my list since I was a child driving to mountains with my uncle.

Yes. Ma'am, way back in 1989 when this weird thing called a cd came out, I save up all my money and bought a cd player, I was 15. My first cd was Operation Mindchrime. Gives me chills every time I listen to it. I was so proud for you to have discovered this. You could throw a dart at any part of that album and be amazed. I tell everyone I can about it. The entire album tells a story.

Operation Mindcrime is a story. It is an incredible album. I saw them in 1990 on their Empire tour in Montreal Quebec. 2 1/2 drive from the US. Still one of my favorite concerts of all time. They played the whole Opertion Mindcrime set. Female singer and everything. Unforgettable!!!!!

I think the word you were looking for when describing his voice is velvety. Geoff is in a class all of his own, once in eternity. There is no Queensryche without Geoff.

Operation: Mindcrime is a complete story, start to finish. Essentially you are “starting” with the final chapter, so the institution might seem out of context for the song. I’d highly suggest giving the entire album a listen to appreciate the fantastic story (as well as the phenomenal music and vocals). This truly is one of the greatest, if not THE greatest concept albums ever made, and I’m a Rush fan, but this one album turned me into a Queensryche fan for life. I became a loyal member of their “Empire” fan club and saw them about 15 times live, including backstage meets with the band. Absolutely one of the best bands in my book.
@DD-ef2os
@DD-ef2os 2 года назад
Completely agree. While every song on the album is great as a stand alone song... to fully appreciate each song, it should be listened to in its entirety. Hands down the best concept album ever, in my opinion. A whole album review would be awesome, but I would really like to see something from MTV Unplugged reviewed. Since it's a live acoustic performance, she can get a really good dose of Tate's vocal abilities without too much production added. Though from the 3 songs she's reviewed, I can tell she picks up on all the glorious expression and nuances that make his voice one of the purest and best in rock/metal.

I love listening to “Walk in the Shadows” from Rage to Order, then “Eyes of a Stranger”, then “Anybody Listening” to hear Tate’s vocal evolution. Another underrated gem is “Real World” from the Last Action Hero soundtrack.
