Ian Gillan - Fighting man

[@Paul-om3kx]

This just gives me chills every time I hear it. What a voice! Glenn Hughes, the Voice of Rock? Nah, THIS is the voice of rock!

[@Endrit719]

I don't know Glenn Hughes, he might be great but I am sure at best he can be equal to Ian

[@RivieraKid69]

Ian Gillan is and was the best Rock Singer ever!

[@СергейКаришин-р3у]

Вещь изумительная! Музыканты-супер! Гиллан-это Гиллан! 43 года слушаю этот концерт! Шедевр!

[@davidesquivel5194]

Ian Gillan is the greatest Rock singer of all times, no doubt.

[@Lil1943]

Oh, yes, best rock singer ever - never get tired of that voice!

[@dawnybawny]

gillan is amazing

[@robertmarsh3588]

Oh God I remember this time so well; now 40 years ago. I'm no longer a teenager. Still love this music though.

[@GregMiller07]

My favorite singer in all of music.

[@eeby7]

Gillan Band were five ingredients that went together to make the most imaginitive rock mix your ever likely to hear. Gillan (the voice), Mcoy (thumping bass), Torme (amazing guitar), Towns (brill keyboards) & Underwood (lightning drummer) what a mix, rock on \m/ !

[@davidrandi8851]

Come si dice da noi in Italia!spacca il culo in 52 anni della mia vita nn ho mai sentito una musica così solo ian gillan poteva farlo grande mito !brividi a nn finire bravo ian gillan!emozione

[@davidrandi8851]

Nn ho parole !un pezzo unico che ti arriva diritto al cuore ! Grazie di esistere ian, grazie sei il n1!😢💪👌👍

[@Endrit719]

If there is one thing I truly wish is being able to sing like this man

[@rodsane8253]

The first time I heard this it brought chills up my spine...still does. Fantastic song from an amazing vocalist...no doubt the best voice ever in rock music. And still giving it his all in his seventies. Get Infinite if you don't already have it.

[@roddraven384]

The best voice in the World

[@rosiopoveda4617]

Ian Gillan perfecto en todos los sentidos

[@dadozele4523]

So so ahead of every other rock singer in any sense; all those changges of the colour - impossible to imitate! GILLAN - NUMBER ONE!

[@siripunjannoo9209]

[@LoraPola]

Просто божественно!

[@vucic89]

[@johnwoodberry3707]

[@vic8880]

Awesome my favourite Ian Gillan track of all time - Gillan is quite simply the best rock vocalist ever - thank you for posting

[@Martsapso21]

RIP Steve Byrd. This solo alone is enough to ensure you a place in Rock and Roll heaven!

[@DCHurlford1]

Managed to get a copy of the Japanese album (from '78) on cd. Great record.

[@gazmasonik2411]

Steve was my best friend, miss him still. His sister died last year too R.I.P.

[@gt2142]

@nazzare79 i tottaly agree!! masterpiece & all time classic..... Ian's voice simply amazing!!!

[@paulhudson563]

[@ольгак-е7м]

Лучший голос ВСЕЛЕННОЙ !!!

[@Tatyana-j6r]

Не в бровь, а в глаз! Одной фразой все сказано!❤

[@cherr3]

nobody beats Gillan!

[@karlpowysfadog3135]

Thankyou Ian Gillan.

[@Lil1943]

On the computer with playlist of Gillan Band recordings playing. Had not realized till now how great they are. Not heavy rock (mostly!) , talented musicians, Ian's great song writing and singing. Great background music. Thanks to all of you who post these songs!

[@bachderarkiang5724]

IAN GILLAN NEVER DIE!

[@Grigoriygb]

Great singer!

[@nazzare79]

he says that this is an excellent song and Ian Gillan is surely one of the best Hard and Heavy rock singers... in my opinion this song is a masterpiece and is my all time favourite one...

[@326vince]

Killer vocalists. I remember when I first heard him Purples Fireball. Just so great

[@clouds882]

he's still got style....super cool pictures of my fav DP frontman, thank u very much! much love from singapore!

[@TonyTakano]

Very good job!! Thanks tony!!

[@betofogo17]

Best music from his solo era, IMHO.

[@Antonella-cn8rl]

Fightingv Man There's a man Living on the kind of street that makes you wonder Got a face that tells the life of city thunder Here's the man In his hand Is a gun that says he doesn't need a reason And there's no-one gonna take away the freedom In his hand He's a bad mistake Got no heart to hate Got a mind that can He's a fighter's fighting man He's got style Got a reputation no-one dares to question Gives you promises if you should ever mention He's got style Got a road Stretches straight between the eyes of any hero Through the heart of many fools who try it's zero Down the road Fighter's fighting man He's got arms of steel He's got hands that kill Got a mind that can He's a fighter's fighting man

[@wankblanket]

recorded 78 with the pre-Gillan lineup that recorded the Japanese released album 'Gillan' My fav Gillan track ever....it's got everything....en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillan_(album)

[@josestocco2998]

Ian gillan sempre é minha referência quando assunto é rock n roll, o cara é um monstro no vocal, pra mim Ian, Dio e Bruce são meus favoritos.

[@patje130]

@TonyTakano gillan you got style and you're voice rocks like no one can

[@Charliegirl2]

I agree about the 2 pics that didn't even look like him they were awlful but the others he was beautiful as always

[@masuhirookada5587]

まさにスーパーハイトーンシャウトの真骨頂　僕の青春の全て　これを目指して　🎤スタンド握ってた　老人ギランからは想像出来ない　僕の人生の一部。

[@elkepluntke3024]

[@josipkoic93]

[@gsbelbin]

Magnificent song, great performances from all the band. I've always loved Steve Byrd's guitar solo on this.

[@cecioland67]

WOW !!!!!

[@Aksyu_ta]

Нам очень понравилось

[@bachderarkiang5724]

Never die

[@kazama3000]

un grande entre grandes , padre e iniciador del heavy metal y hard rock!!

[@davidesquivel5194]

Sin Deep Purple (y quizás incluyendo también a Black Sabbath por su influencia, sobre todo, no tanto por su básica calidad musical) JAMÁS hubiése habido un Judas Priest, ni un Iron Maiden, por poner un par de ejemplos de peso y representativos. Ya le pueden preguntar a Bruce Dickinson o a Rob Halford en quiénes se inspiraron para hacer lo suyo... Deep Purple es el verdadero génesis del Heavy Metal, a partir de "In Rock", donde establecen por derecho propio lo que sería el prototipo de banda metalera en la siguiente década y media por venir. La música de la banda es muy variada, aunque siempre es Rock, pero por la época en que hicieron "Speed King", "Child in Time", "Space Truckin", "Highway Star", "Rat Bat Blue", "Stormbringer", "Burn", por mencionar sólo algunos temas, y, por supuesto, el HIMNO del Rock "Smoke on the Water", ni Led Zeppelin ni aún siquiera Sabbath hacían música tan HEAVY!! Dentro del contexto histórico de la Historia del Rock, lo que luego se conoció como "Heavy Metal" desciende, proviene, directamente de la música de Deep Purple en primer lugar, y luego en menor medida pero contribuyendo claramente, de la de Black Sabbath y Led Zeppelin. Guste, o no, ésto es un hecho histórico, no dable a interpretaciones según el gusto particular de nadie.

[@navarhosAlex]

Demo of his voice ability 5:33

[@algernonilfracombe]

The first time I heard it I thought it was a Mellotron or something... his vocal range is quite incredible.

[@DJPsRock]

Nice song,New to me.

[@Bmc7231]

superb!

[@rulerwithcounsel]

If only he could sing like that now

[@charlesfitze2217]

I am a Fighting man allright

[@Кристинак-с5е]

Ян один, больше никто..

[@Tatyana-j6r]

Никто и рядом не стоит!

[@vernonallen3370]

Man! Sad news , guitarist Steve Byrd passed. Aged 61 R.I.P.

[@tonylavele]

Good morning! Hahahahaha!!!

[@TheMrzwix]

This is a fucking great song !!

[@nickfarr6367]

Love this-Colin Towns was great on piano.

[@IanGillanGurl]

Excellent Song! \m/

[@Lil1943]

@rulerwithcounsel I wish he could sing like that now, too! Guess, though, pretty amazing what he can do at age 66. And in 2009 made album One Eye to Morocco. No screams anymore - but I think he's still got a great voice considering abuse and age.

[@Aztlnight]

esta pieza me golpea directo a las entrañas!!!

[@janevessey7233]

😍😍❤❤❤

[@dawnybawny]

well searched for this song hi and lo...for this song, fucking love it

[@Tomandrea]

[@1jokerpool]

you are great

[@Salvatore3333]

ripping the soul..slowly

[@soumyaaymous]

you cant touch this!!!

[@GreenerHill]

Hear this song's sister track, She Tears Me Down.

[@NitramMusic95-2]

where i can find the picture at 3:02 without copyright stuff on it ? it's an epic thing!

[@FreddieMercury1994]

Absolutely a great singer, expecially with falsetto

[@dadozele4523]

Like your precious Freddie never tried to do so - never succeded... Noone's to blame.

[@garyhines1459]

this song gives my chills next to mr. universe?

[@Lil1943]

Why are Deep Purple band members shown here (just wondering)? This was a GILLAN Band song, written by Colin Towns, recorded by Gillan Band members probably around '81. Also, since I'm being tacky, I really hate seeing unflattering pictures of Ian lol. Otherwise, thanks for excellent version - sound quality great.

[@Appregator]

I think he hits his highest note at 6:13 here. I wonder how he does it. Incredible ! I think his singing on Jesus Christ Superstar is also really some of his best as well. Really dramatic, like the anger scream in the song "The Temple".

[@tonylavele]

I don't understand what do you say, but I hope that is good for my favourite Ian Gillan.

[@tonylavele]

AliBabazzi I don't know where to find the original picture. Even Uncle Google doesn't know. I have only this one.

[@tonylavele]

Because at that time I did not have enough pictures of the Gillan's band.

[@overtimefreak2685]

which record?

[@TheMarc8691]

yet another great singer sadly lost....

[@neilgraham9386]

He`s not dead!

[@alferdjuhimovich9037]

He is Great. The dot. Though mr Halford is great as well, but mr Midnight was..

[@ujjaya1]

Oups I see there are 2 fans of Justin Bieber and Adele (or maybe 50 cents) who have lost their way through the net.

[@masuhirookada5587]

チャイルドインタイム盤！僕が目標にしてたギラン　ファルセットスーパーハイトーンシャウトはヒューズ　バイロン　も披露するが迫力はギラン！スーパーハイトーンシャウトは無いが、太いパワーヴォイスと独特の節回しのディオ　太い哀愁を帯びた声のカヴアーディルも素晴らしい　ギランは２人に比べれば地声はオーソドックスでパワフル　そしてギランにしかない物は男声の甘さ　だからスピキンもウエステッドサンセットも歌える　圧巻は丸い甘い超低音のプレイスインザラインこれはギランにしかない　ギランは僕には神に近い存在だった　何で、なんででしょう　経年劣化だけじゃないでしょう？今の体たらくは？喉の声帯のメンテナンスが失敗だった？声がでないんなら何故早く就寝しないのか？ってブラックモアが言ってたみたいだけど。。。　160センチ45キロの別嬪が100キロの関取に変わった10倍のショック😱だった　ブリティッシュハードロックやる限り目標にしていたコアだったから。
