[@grvulture8235]

I think the drummer is the most talented. How he plays all this with just a snare, it's a miracle!

[@kurtsimon5540]

I have no words... This is pure heavy metal magic. Made only for the people with good taste. Seriously.

[@obca1070]

True heavy metal crush. Especially the beautiful, nostalgic solos. And the vocals.

[@ianmckeon760]

Pretty much, absolutely brilliant!

[@norsecrafts5433]

Pretty sure all of the 80's that was left in the world in -89 was channeled into those moves and that look at 0:44.

[@nofatbird]

this band, especially this song, deserves way more recognition.

[@Glothmorg1]

Lyrics: I am born a highlander, into battle I ride. With the sword of my forefathers, And the clan by my side. In the glen waits my destiny, mortal wounds I sustain. Cold steel inside of me, but I cannot be slain. Blessed by immortality, as time marches on. Take the head of my enemy, There can be only one. The hills have eyes The hills have eyes The hills have eyes The hills have eyes ...Oh Highlander! Thunder in the mountains, the final reckoning will come. At the end of my odyssey, the prize must be won. Kraken stands between my quest, evil old as the sea. Titans clash in a mighty test, to taste bloody victory. Blessed by immortality, as time marches on. Take the head of my enemy, There can be only one. The hills have eyes The hills have eyes The hills have eyes The hills have eyes ...Oh Highlander!

[@itkojecockot]

I loved this Power Metal phase of the band...... their debut is still Nr. 1 in my book, but these late 80's power metal albums were fantastic...... glad these legends are still with us, making new music

The song is a masterpiece. The video is the highest form of art.

One of the absolute best Heavy Metal bands to ever exist!

[@ingoledebur2059]

Wow I got it! Have seen it at Head bangers Ball at MTV and have forgotten the title of the song and the band! Thanks for this! Cheers from Germany and stay healthy!

[@MattRichardsEsq]

I was at college with the guy who directed/filmed this video... meanwhile I was working on a video for Ned's Atomic Dustbin. Those were the days!

[@ericeastman2427]

[@thehellion754]

That castle reminds me of the one Iron Maiden used for the Fear of the Dark photoshoot

[@Gorflank]

Fantastic experience just watching this video...

[@adalwulf435]

They really did my man on the drums dirty.

I never knew there was a music video to this song,thanks for the sure upload "cheers"

[@Miliciametal]

Great !!!

[@Luxerlunder]

It's brilliant and amazing, I got impressed.

[@oliversaudny8616]

Diese Band hätte größer werden müssen. Vielleicht wird es noch.

[@themadthrasher5000]

Man whatever happened to this band!? They released some great stuff in the 80s and never got much recognition it seemed

[@shekharsharma1490]

Nice !!!

[@johnmploutis5562]

GREAT N.W.O.B.H.M.-HEAVY CLASSIC METAL BAND

[@merlinidlehands3302]

KEEP them Comming fellas

[@JT-df5ul]

Cool song

[@MUZIQBUF]

" You killed my father, prepare to die!"

[@seanodonnell9826]

This is awesome! These kinds of vids have so much heart to them, I love how he decapitates that guy at the end of the sword fight lol

[@JJames666male]

It's highlander after all!

[@marcushardwick4616]

Running wild like power metal, and gravediger and satan and yes thin lizzy and iron maiden and saxon too !

[@Ol_Dude_Macabre]

This is the most metal video of all time 😲

Up there with them certainly Brian!

[@Pbirv]

Duncan MacLeod approves!

[@T.N.D.88]

Connor MacLeod also approves.

[@gustavok.o.9027]

Juan Sanches Villa Lobos Ramirez also aproves... Even The Kurgan will love this Song... this Shit is dope!

[@JJ_69]

Badass video

[@NiklausMetal]

Fucking hilarious... Someone didn't feel like bringing their kit to the shoot. Amazing song, album.

[@WWIIITHEMETALREVOLUTION]

I like the scenery but the shaking camera is very annoying

[@immortelle.]

2:33 priceless

[@redshaftedflicker]

Fucking amazing!!!!!

[@IIKNEZII]

does anybody know the location where this music video is filmed? fits really gr8 to this masterpiece of music

[@HedeccaTamer]

Canaerfon Castle I think? Russ is actually my uncle, and I believe that part of the family were in Wales at the time. Either way, my dad will know

[@NOR672]

Great song, but, can someone tell me where can I buy the ghostly drumkit??

[@slormlord1823]

Id totally play a game of 40k or WHF with these guys.

[@franciscomorales4834]

bien ese swing del patero

[@SavoxYT]

Is that Dudley castle?

[@antichristiantormentowers6381]

🤘🏿🗡️

[@miker.8282]

Who's the director of this video? This is one of the silliest videos ever. Right up there with Candlemass's Bewitched.

[@bobstevens8667]

Haha its worse. Candlemass's doomy sound made the cheese seem less cheesy and the cringe seem less cringy. This is just pure cheese and cringe. Great song though.

[@ParadoxapocalypSatan]

I expected Immortal to run towards them and do battle.

[@JorgeS-bh7jp]

0:45 A lo que vine!

[@blackquicksandmusic2365]

GR8

[@sergiofreitas5753]

Paul Stanley goes power metal!

[@davidannett3322]

legit

[@bonefaithsenseless]

Tune is whopper, so is the whole album! I think Astral Rider or Forgotten Heroes might have been a better choice of single. Deserves much better representation than this. Killer album, reminded me of "So Far, So Good, So What?!" with a greater NWOBHM influence.

[@current81]

To think that Russ could've vailed in Iron Maiden, and they chose fucking Blaze Bailey... Talk about missed opportunities.

[@jorge1791]

0:45 epic moment

[@danielpaquet3963]

I thought it was Paul Stanley first glance Never heard of this band.

[@GoldenGateNum9]

Ahead of their time, in ten years this style was all the craze.. listen to Suidakra, Forefather, Ensiferum, Children Of Bodom, Norther, Kalmah, Skyfire.

[@jmagowan12]

I was thinkin will there be another Highlander film and then I realised "there can be only 1".

[@thii.ramos2]

Inspiration Massacration kakakaka

[@trveheimer6360]

god damn the brits are becoming actually brilliant once you get high af

[@daemonchild1977]

Good grief

[@shawnsunil589]

I guess air drumming was a thing back then

[@krakenturdz]

Its like gloryhammer 30 years before

[@carvinieri5217]

1:04 did he survive? 🤣🤣

[@Yourmomanddadrbrotherandsister]

How are they now?

[@jonhoughton1435]

I saw them last year on Mother’s Day, with about 15-20 people in attendance. They fucking killed!! They played this song as well as a bunch of other classics.

[@stubkar]

Not much room for drumsets on these here forts.

[@mulcibernebiros1167]

Jjjaaajja

[@massimoricciardi6202]

Would of seen them at Loud As Hell but they fired the drummer.

[@JHallDaBoss]

This shit goes hard. Better than Maiden and Priest.

[@poppaboppa6000]

Holy gay

[@georgiosdoumas2446]

Hahaha , when I was 16 at 1989 , I had not seen that video (did they play it on MTV Headbangers Ball? ) but I know I would like it mostly for the music. But now while I still like the music a lot , I find the video ridiculous ! Like a cheap form of bad art.

[@tqk1976]

I get mad whenever people call metal videos cheesy or otherwise make fun of them, or like them ironically, or whatever. But while this is incredible music, this video is just very badly done. It's right up there with that one Immortal video everyone makes fun of. The costumes and weapons look cheap and the swordfighting looks like they have no idea what they're doing; like they just started hitting swords together and hoping that it looked cool and it wasn't even choreographed. You have to wonder if they were even supposed to be filming in that castle ruin. Great song, great musicianship, but VERY rough video.

[@pedropere2947]

canción brutal de un grupo brutal... videoclip pésimo

[@artkrfan1262]

Como el vídeo: bewitched de los Candlemass 😂 igual es un rolón 🤘🏼

[@crewhate7172]

クサメタル どこまで本気なのか？ なんか笑っちゃう

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

Is this a piss take? It's like Bad news or a shit Judas Priest

[@hnavarror]

..good band...but one of the worst videos ever ajaja
