My Sunday school teacher took this album from me and asked my mom if she knew what I was listening to. She judged that since they had long hair that they had to be bad. I proved her wrong and she had to apologize.
@@Noneya27 it's the same key. Go listen to the studio version. They always tuned their guitars down half a step...so E was actually D# I have an original copy of this album, on cassette....and I can tell you it's definitely the same key and the same chords
This guys are AWESOME. They are spreading their music for Jesus Christ for others to see that just because they are rock singers they are Soldiers for God. AWESOME
These songs have gotten me through some tough times growing up and still to this day when I'm going through a rough patch as I am now listening to Stryper always brings me out....Thank you so much!
WE NEED MORE BANDS LIKE THIS!!!!!!! THE WORLD NEEDS MORE BANDS LIKE THIS!!!!!!! ALMIGHTY GOD NEEDS MORE BANDS LIKE THIS!!!!!!! AMEN! AMEN!!!!!!!✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️
I remember finding a box of cassettes that some one threw to the side of the back roads of PA where I lived growing up. The cassette with this song was on it. My first experience experiencing a Christian Band🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉It was Awesome 😊 I totally now follow Jesus , growing closer each day since 2012. Praise God for this gifted band spreading the truth, the life & the way ❤🙏
They're like wine: it gets better with age. Mike's vocal range dropped but still hitting high notes; his warm voice is much pleasing to ear compared to early years.
Still Rockin for the King of Kings after all these years. Praise God. Jesus Christ is Lord. God bless you brothers. You guys are always in my prayers for the Lord to continually open up more doors for you to Evangelize. Blessings! You all have helped me on my Journey with the Lord since the 80's. The Holy Spirit is felt all over your songs. Thank you Brothers. Blessings to your families as well. Amen.
That was awesome!! I bought "Soldiers" in 1986. Begged my mom for it😅. Been a HUGE fan ever since. That was 48 years ago. They sound just as good now (maybe better) than then. Messsage is A+. Talent and musicianship is A+. Keep rocking guys. God bless!
stryper helped me get out of dark metal with their great music that really attracted me, at a certain point I started playing their music more and more and I was saved too, so mission accomplished
Soy de Costa Rica 🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷 y la primera vez que vinieron creo que en el 2000 yo estuve ahí viéndolos ,la segunda vez, el año pasado no supe que venían ,en realidad siempre esperé volver a verlos pero No sabía que iban a venir y no pude verlos, pero Dios en su infinita misericordia me tenía preparada una pequeña sorpresa! Trabajo como chofer de Uber y ese día tuve que llevar a varios clientes al lugar donde era el concierto y ahí fue donde me di cuenta de que STRYPER estaba ahí, aunque No los ví, pude escuchar Calling on You, Free y otras, fue una noche de Bendición para mí y siempre lo recordaré!! Gracias STRYPER esa noche me llenaron el corazón con esas canciones y el saber que Dios me regaló ese pequeño momento de felicidad, DIOS LOS BENDIGA POR SIEMPRE!!
Stryper was the only metal I was allowed to listen to as the son of a Baptist minister. Now there were some other groups that came later like Deliverance, Seventh Angel, Novella but Stryper was the OGs. I did get to see Stryper in Tulsa Oklahoma on the In God We Trust tour. Thank you for giving me a metal outlet. No lie I eventually listened to all metal but Stryper was the best!
Wether you're a christian or not, you gotta recognize these guys rock! Loved them from the 80s. christianity aside, they sing about universal human values. (Kindness to others, faith (whatever religion you pray at)
Michael, you guys continue to be an inspiration to aging musicians. Hard to believe your screams are still so crisp. You guys have great harmony. Please keep going.
Been a fan since ‘84 when Yellow and Black Attack happened, go listen to it if you haven’t. Met every band member along the way through many concerts, love them all, genuine real God loving people. Love them. God Bless America and humanity. ❤
Why the devil hand sings if thus is Christian music. I don't understand be careful of those things that mimic the world.If u love the worldly ways you are a hater of God
God Bless Stryper (& I’m an atheist) I miss bands like this with passion & chops & songs. Michael’s one of the only guy’s left who can still sing (hope there’re no backing tracks) from the 80’s. Wish they could get Tim back.
John 15:13-14 (KJV) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. Je'sus Christ
I'm an old ex pro player myself and I thin I hear a few extra backing vocals in the mid underneath but I know these guys could always deliver it live and sing well, just so bang on. I saw them in Toronto in 1989(yes I'm old lol) and they nearly blew the rood off just deafening but excellent too! Tim won't be back he's burned those bridge sorry to say.
Wasn't a big fan of you guys but I knew your music I thought you were pretty awesome and from what I see you still sound absolutely the same so amazing congratulations gentlemen
Obrigado pela musica! Vocês são incríveis! Ainda lamento até hoje que não pude comprar o cd demo de 1994 do Michael Sweet, vinha autografado! Cheguei a conversar com o Michel por e-mail... mas não tive condições de importar para o Brasil. A sua música é inspiradora! Deus abençoe vcs e suas famílias!
I saw this tour at Mud Island in Memphis, TN in like 1987 and they freaking ROCKED! I still think Yellow and Black Attack was one of their best ones, however, all of their albums are great! #THEWAY
Been following Stryper since the 80's, they were solid then, they are still solid today, 40 years later! And still carrying God's message! God bless Stryper!
JUST SO good in a live setting such a slick performance and crystal clear sound quality ,just never let you down! God Bless you lads and Thanks you for quality music through the years and an extra Blessing for Oz and Mike's health! 🙏🙏
Love stryper and that perfect 80's sound, everything michael and company does is golden in my eyes, right up therer with Helloween, Maiden and the rest 😎🤘❤️🔥👏
