It’s because everything is 80s in Blinding Lights except the vocals. Now it’s got 80s Power Metal vibes. DragonForce isn’t an 80s band, true, but their early material was intentionally spot on with that genre.
@@2yoyoyo1Unplugged actually Dragonforce's current material is even more 80's sometimes. Listen to their song Strangers from the Extreme Powermetal album.
Well, The Weeknd sounds like he took inspiration from 1980s synth pop, I hear his songs and I immediately recognize some stuff other synth pop groups used.
@@ccLA08 BRO! I LOVE THAT SONG! That whole collab was dope and the animation was sick! My favorite version of that song is the version from Ceelo Green! The puffy amiyumi version is fantastic too!👍🏻
@@cartooncottage2024 If Abel's the protagonist, I imagine the training montage involves taking substances at a record-breaking rate and driving exotic cars quickly around corners.
I can’t either and I also did not expect to find you here. But I’m glad to see we share not only the same gaming interest but also music taste. I have been watching you sense I was in middle school and now as adult I still watch your videos. I hope you have a wonderful day and keep being amazing and striving for originality.
Strum after technology hit a certain point, we humans, have stopped the history of music. Now we are here to immortalize many genres and time periods’ sounds into the fifth dimension, known as the internet.
@@BananaFace301 thanks for reminding me that I realized that he deleted his second comment so everyone was thinking that I was replying to his comment twice in a row. Therefore, I deleted my second comment to avoid the confusion. (This is my third reply)
This actually just makes me realize how good the vocals of through the fire and the flames are lmao. Its a little hard to pay attention to them in the original song for obvious reasons
I saw them live and the singer got angry at how much louder everyone cheered for the guitarists. I can see why he might have felt overlooked by DragonForce's main selling point was always their fast as lightning guitar playing
I thought if you played the Power Rangers theme backwards it summoned 5 miniature Satans that would then procede to combine to form Megazord Satan and drag you to hell with their transformable tentacle-dick sword to be molested by demons in Power Rangers costumes for all eternity?
The year is 1999. It is the future. Detective Hale Matrix must hunt down the drug runners who kidnapped his wife. The neon city lights fall on the dark, rain swept roads as he drives furiously toward his goal. He will find his love. He will destroy anyone who tries to stop him.
judging by this instrumental, idk if the weeknd isolated vocals will be available. i think a lot of isolated tracks for rock and metal songs are available through guitar hero, which is why you can get stuff like this
Takes a true maverick to decide not to go with the obvious choice of the TTFaTF backing and Weeknds voice. Not entirely sure I agree with it but that's art
Herman Li is too good for this earth he is just a dude who shreds on guitar and enjoys memes and seems like a genuinely great guy. But seriously I would love to see him react to this
The soundalike version of the “Blinding Lights” instrumental makes this sound like ZP Theart pulled up to a karaoke bar, found out they didn’t have his song, and decided to just sing it over something that sounded close
You probably won’t read this but this mashup helped me through a tough time while I’m here in the army, I run and exercise everyday to this creation and I have you to thank for it. Thank you for keeping me motivated. Hooah
It seems like this would be a part of a montage scene in either an 80's coming of age movie where the kid preps for the big fight against the bully and then gets the girl, or for a late-2000's movie where two bands of completely different styles have to combine forces and this is the song they come up with for the battle of the bands and the win seems to come from left field but really isn't
He dies a little inside every time one of these bastardpieces comes together. He probably doesn’t have much time left here. A true sacrifice of the soul. But through the fire and flames we carry on.
