The singer Michael Kiske was just 19 when they recorded this album.. unbelievable

What's even more unbelievable is that he still sounds the same.

Michael Kiske,the Angel's Voice from Heaven!!! Saw him with Helloween on Tour back in 1987,together with Overkill!!! He was just 19 years old (and i'm 16) ^^

[@neils123]

Oh, man, I haven't listened to this one in forever. But you know what? I still LOVE it. In all it's cheesy glory! Man, classic Helloween was so GREAT!

[@pietrayday9915]

They were a big deal for a couple years back when I was in high school, and seemed like the future of metal at the time, picking up where Iron Maiden had left off,pushing the boundaries on these big, grandiose, elaborate, melodic, epic, speed-metal songs. But then thrash metal seemed to pop up out of nowhere with more of a back-to-basics aesthetic, and Helloween kind of got left behind and fell out of fashion for a generation or two.

[@mikeyb8040]

@@pietrayday9915 shit.. looking back on it, ur right. And the grunge came along and completely fucked everything

[@adameves5970]

This isn't even one of the cheesy ones. Cheesy is like Rise and Fall or Dr. Stein.

[@neils123]

@@adameves5970 Ha ha, I love Dr. Stein!

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

@@pietrayday9915 True. In retrospect, Helloween had everything going for them... they had Maiden-potential as you said. A big reason why they almost disappeared in the early 90s, was their lawsuit problems with Noise Records, which basically froze Helloween from 1989 to 1991. Therefor, they weren't able to continue on the wave they had started with the Keepers. And by the time they had settled stuff with Noise, the metal scene had changed :/

[@trumpjr5179]

Long time fan of these guys all the way back to the 80's, I put them right up there with Maiden, talent wise. Eagle Fly Free another great tune.

[@fiskedrag]

Michael Kiske (the singer)has lungs out of this world. Thank you for doing this one👍❤️ This song comes from the part 2 album. Just love your reactions and sense of humor 👍😊 Stay safe n well!!!!❤️🇸🇪

[@gutoabrito]

Agreed, dude! Seems she's travelling on the song! And they seem to have fun, a lot!

[@johnkatsoudas4767]

Helloween is one of the greatest bands ever!! I love all their albums, especially the first three Walls Of Jericho, Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part 1 and 2. This song is one of their best.

[@ThrashCommander]

I've been listening to this song for what, almost 2 decades now? It was nice to watch you guys hearing it for the first time, because as much as I'd like to think I'm burnt out on it, it truly is a one of a kind masterpiece among all of Helloweens Masterpieces. I'd recommend checking out the song Halloween, the other long Helloween masterpiece.

[@shaunglancey2144]

I remeber the first time I listened to this song, it took me somewhere...indescribable. I love watching what it does to others on their first time.

[@Patryn71]

Very good reaction. Helloween is one of the original Power Metal bands. Been a fan of them for a long, long time. With that being said, I'll once again request a song from them that I think you'd really like. #painintheask Helloween - I Want Out

[@mikeyb8040]

Yes yes yes... I could go on but 3 yes's are enough. Nah fuck that,.. YES YES YES. I know Kel would relate to that with her upbringing

[@ccgert]

I WANT OUT!!!

[@MsStecarl]

thats a classic

[@elkardona]

I think they are the first band who made power metal.

[@mikeyb8040]

@@elkardona I consider them the first. Some people think of them as the German Iron Maiden, but they are so much more. IMO Helloween is much better than Maiden.

[@senjutsuwalrus3814]

#painintheask What you heard was the full version. There are 2 albums Keeper of the Seven Keys Part 1 (1987) and Keeper of the Seven Keys Part 2 (1988). This song is the title track from the 2nd album.

[@project23]

I came here to listen to some Keeper of the Seven Keys Part 1 songs, sadly just a song from Part 2. Part 1 had more powerful songs. Still fun, but nothing compared to "I'm Alive" or "Twilight of the Gods" (both from Keeper of the Seven Keys Part 1).

[@pablopallone]

This band is the cornerstone of today's power metal....And Michael Kiske´s voice is unique...best power metal band of all times...

[@geggs13]

Though Walls of Jericho is a more raw and hardcore metal album leaning to thrash metal, with the opener Ride The Sky and the closer How Many Tears stealing the show, the Keepers are a more safe and entertaining choice for first time Helloween listeners. Both albums have songs with a fantasy story line . Awesome musicians. Way to go guys! Always enjoying your honest reactions!

Bit of info for you Michael Kiske was taught to sing by none other than Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden. This is one of the classic Helloween songs which showcases Kiskes vocal talent. Absolutely brilliant. 🤘🤘

[@vicsdungeon]

Um, that is absolutely not true... As for showcasing his talents, I would suggest We Got the Right, from Keeper of the Seven Keys Part II album. He also wrote that song. But as for Helloween, I would recommend Ride the Sky to get the full effect of their first era (With Kai Hansen singing), then Halloween (with an A!) from Keeper of the Seven Keys Part I and Eagle Fly Free from Keeper of the Seven Keys Part II album.

Rafael Longen whichever version. The Alive in Athens version is also stellar.

[@thecheif00]

I personally prefer the AiA version to the original NotSR version. Not to bash John Greely , I love his style , but I just think smedley's drumming and Matt's singing just compliment the song so so so much . And the fact that its Live Is just that much more insane

[@savvasefsef]

[@jsadramelch]

Well done on one more killer reaction video. I can't wait for you to get deeper into power metal and try out some Blind Guardian (maybe "And then there was silence" or "Curse my name") and some Iced Earth ("Dante's inferno" or "Dracula")

Hello ! I love your videos ! I'm a big fan of RUSH (I wrote the only book in French on the band: RUSH - Archive / Didier Merlateau - CAMION BLANC) and Keeper Of The Seven Keys is a great song... Helloween is funny, melodic and best power metal at this time. Your reaction has been so positive that I strongly advise you to listen to MAGO DE OZ: Atlantia. If you're not hostile to Spanish (you can find the video with translate on youtube), this song is melodic, powerful, progressive, Symphonic, Folk and so epic! Like Keeper Of The Seven Keys. As we have the same tastes, I'm sure you'll like it. Sorry for my bad english. Many thanks for your videos from France (Paris)!

There are close to 200 genres and sub-genres of metal. When Helloween released this in 1987, their lead vocalist (as is also presently) was Michael Kiske, who is considered one of the best male metal vocalists of all time. And yes, there's part 2 also. After this trip to memory lane once again, please return to present time to give "Frozen Crown" a first reaction also. They are a new female fronted power metal band from Italy (vocals are in English) having released their debut album "The Fallen King" in 2018. Their second album "Crowned In Frost" is about to come out 22nd of this month. In addition to their lead vocalist, they have a female left-handed (Just like Jimi Hendrix also was.) 19 year old guitarist, Talia Bellazecca, who is quite something. They have just released this music video from their upcoming album FROZEN CROWN - Neverending (Official Video) kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6CTmqCIdrOdo5I&list=PLnTbB_KKqNAq8IKoK-f8bFKNBwlm1Vkay
