This is a classic & iconic song that has withstood the test of time. Graham Bonnet sings so masterfully that you don't even realize there are no rhyming words in the song whatsoever. I come back to listen at least 5 times in a week. This was recorded way back in 1979 & listening to it never gets old. I
Great .Amazing song .Bonnets 'earth shattering 'vocals .Powell ? One of the top drummers of all time .Glover ' in base .Ritchie .THE greatest guitar god of all time
I'm 61 also. Met Blackmore (on more than one occasion), met Cozy and Dio. Simply awesome. We were extremely lucky. With the dross that we have to listen to today, its comforting to know that we saw real musicians, doing real music. The likes of which we are unlikely to ever see again.
Even today at 76 years old he still has an amazing voice. He can still sing this song extremely well, granted his voice is a fair bit different but still sings well.
definitely!! far better than the JLT super pop rock that they did after this. At least there was some heavier bits here on this album and Graham Bonnet has a killer voice for hard rock! This has always been my favorite Rainbow album
@@spatewater RIP. Didnt know she passed but when i remember how old she looked already here it makes sense. Great figure for her age anyway, she must have been truly stunning in the 1960ies
Not a single word in the lyrics of this song rhyme. Most ears will never notice it. Yet the song flows like a river of hot steel. If that's not a testament to the transcendent power of Graham Bonnet's vocals, I don't know what is.
For me. it is almost 40 years. LOL. Graham Bonnet singing this great song with that beautiful girl dancing off to the side was my favorite MTV video watching as a young teen in 1979, early 1980s. It still is today 39 years later.
Most songs contain verses with lyrics that purposefully rhyme certainly at various times. Not necessary though, always. That is for sure. A well written song is a well written song and it comes across to listeners as just that. This great song and Paul Simon's "America" come to mind. The lyrics ending every line dont rhyme with the previous line, etc., nor do lyrics rhyme too often in any other rhyming pattern. Most all songs do. It is rather unusual.
Oh dear...... Oh my ..........Back in the good old days.. somewhere around the '80's I was a sound engineer, for a few bands............ Yees this realy brings back the memory's, Oh how I loved those days. Sadly never to be seen again, ever on this planet. I salute the good old days of fun, love, and most of all great music.......I miss them and hope one day.. one day.......
Another timeless killer song! I love the growl in Graham Bonnet’s voice.. He’s had a great career and what a voice!.. One of my all time favorite songs….
Why music can't be played today as this powerful and fantastic band does ????????????? ..... G. Bonnet, your voice is great !!!!!!!!!!!! .... a great band !!!!!!!!!!!!
This is my all time favorite Rainbow song. from my favorite Rainbow album. Graham Bonnet really belts out the vocals on this song. in fact I really like the whole album. it's too bad Graham Bonnet was only with the group for this album. that's a shame.
Ritchie Blackmore is a true legend as a song writer .As. a guitarist ? He is a 'TRUE ' .Blackmore IS rainbow .Ritchie Has changed line ups .Ritchie is a perfectionist .He BACK .He is enjoying back .Welcome back Ritchie .Rock music fans are glad to see you back
Phenomenal voice of Graham Bonnet, really helped to make this band and others, so very distinctive and really knows how to belt it out! Thanks for sharing this great video.
I think Glover and Blackmore wrote the lyrics with humor in mind. Kind of like coming from teenage guys wanting to be rock stars; being pursued by girls who are big fans. Tongue in cheek. This song got that hot girl who is every guy's fantasy. Her brain don't matter, if you get my drift. lol Yeah, ultimate rock lyrics.
Me and my circle of friends played Rainbow a lot there was something unique and special about this album Graham Bonnets voice was awesome! You couldn't get a much better drummer than Cozy Powell greatly missed a true all time great
It's 2021, I'm 57 years old and I'd never heard of this band or any of their songs until around 2018. I find it strange that my local radio stations didn't play them back in the day. Maybe they did and I just didn't hear them? Anyway, I feel like I missed out on something great. Glad RU-vid is around.
⭕️MY GOD! I STILL cant get over Bonnets vocal performance ! Call it “ vocal gymnastics” HE GAVE IT WHAT IT NEEDED! i just shake my head as this guy voice puts his STAMP on this tune!! Im a huge RJDio fan! Such a fan of Ronnies voice ! However this is Gram Bonnet & although required a different style of singing The Man really shocked me back then AND still today i just cant stop replaying & watching the TWO SCREAMS & the way he makes a point to just reeeeach for it & just YANKs his voice UP Then STILL UP AGAIN another level during the same word! I NEVER SEEN /HEARD /WATCHED anyone accelerate their voice like this ! Who knew their could be more in him to step the scream into a scream!!!???? Ha haha ha ha!!! Wow! & then when the lyrics return for the 2nd round , the camara jumps to him mid scream , his hands already feeling the need to help THROW his voice even further out towards the back of the arena in case their was a “hearing impaired” RAINBOW FAN that might not heard the first roll threw!!! & AGAIN pulls off liftoff mid flight but to the highest level of the song!! WHEW!!! he coulda “started” the song witha “MIC DROP” ! Guess he knew he had huge shoes to fill AND NAILS IT!!!! Thanks for that Gram!!! Ya won me over First time!!!

I am huge fan of Dio. I only listened to Down to earth recently after many years of Dio-only Rainbow. Had never heard of Graham Bonnett. And God damn. This opening track is an absolute killer.
Удивительный талант блэкмора в подборе не менее талантливых вокалистов с неповторимым и сильными голосами сильными слабо сказано мощными дио, тернер, боннет
I'm 49 and I remember this great tune, even though Rainbow has gone gone through a many of front men, this is one there stand out songs, todays music sucks, Gene Simmons said it Rock and Roll as of today is dead, that is why I still listen to music from 40 years ago. Graham Bonnet in this song has very strong vocals, one of my favorites .
I heard Blackmore say, a couple of years ago, that in his view it's not how many notes you can play a second, it's the feel of it. A great riff and something with a bit of soul is infinitely better than clinical, over-worked, shredding. I could identify guitarists back then on my first hearing of a release. Doubt that's the case these days.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe!
Wow, I always loved this song as a youth but this is the first time I have seen it performed and I must say that Bonnet's appearance certainly belies that tremendous powerful voice! Looking at him without hearing him, you would never suspect that he could sing so powerfully or so well.
Graham Bonnet wore shades to hide the broken blood vessels in his eyes form his insane singing style! Awesome MTV classic when MTV only played music! I read somewhere that Graham's short haired, leisure suit style drove Blackmore crazy cuz he wanted him to have the hairy rocker look.
@@markbenson9334 Sylvia Bell from Bradford, a Miss United Kingdom beauty queen contestant not long before she did this video. Sadly she died of leukemia in the 1990's aged around 40, what a tragedy, she was absolutely gorgeous.

I think it's a great line but it didn't go down well with the feminists! It works both ways though...if I saw someone I fancied in a club the last thing on my mind would be his brain!
@@fubarmodelyard1392 Thank you! I'm a very nice person but I sometimes have an alter ego when I go out with my girlfriends and get up to mischief! My little girl says "mummy, why do you dress up and look pretty when it makes you sick in the morning?!"
FUKCIN' BRILLIANT. Sir Blackmore slaying another unforgettable hook, and GRAHAM BONNET FUKCING RAILS! Very quick streak of success, this particular incarnation, but just standout, first rate chemistry and punch.
@@joetravieso3542 I would rather go to a garbage dump than watch a rush concert...at least at a garbage dump there would be a small chance of seeing a woman
I am glad all these miss and matches were made by Sabbath Purple and Rainbow. Graham Bonnet I first knew from Alcatrazz, whata great job he did there. Same here. Unique and graceful personality.
I always liked the (Down to Earth) album for some reason! Liked all the Rainbow albums! It's like the style changed, but the jamming was still great! So were all the 3 singers!
I remember seeing this video on Top Of The Pops in 1980, and it didn't occur to me that Graham's hair was too short, I just thought he had one hell of a voice. At Donington 1980 he looked like the 80's while the band looked like the 70's. One of Ritchie's better riffs, reminiscent of Man On The Silver Mountain.
Cozy was a big reason why he was in Rainbow. And why he would rejoin him in MSG. When Cozy left MSG Graham's days were numbered. He was famously fired by Schenker on the eve of headlining the 1981 or 82 Reading Festival because Michael thought he was too hungover to perform. I'm a big Michael Schenker fan, but imagine that.
