Megadeth - The Scorpion (Live In Luxembourg 2005)

[@AaronW_guitar]

For whatever reason, I feel like The System Has Failed is super underrated. Great album with good songs and awesome riffs.

[@AvanzadaDental]

Indeed!

[@malcolmkyeremeh5444]

I wholeheartedly agree. This song especially man, I absolutely fucking love Dave's voice in the studio version

[@lous2187]

One of the best and one of the most underrated in my opinion, it's the same with all their albums from 2001 onwards

[@lukewilliams8916]

I agree 100%! I listen to that album a lot. Some say it was suppose to be the Mustaine solo album but sounds like Megadeth to me. Plus you have Chris Poland playing on it.

[@AaronW_guitar]

@@lukewilliams8916 Megadeth is essentially a Dave Mustaine solo project but with collaborations with talented dudes!

[@SokSa]

I still don't understand how he can play and sing these riffs. what a musician.

[@jamesledesma7266]

It's really difficult to have this concentration

[@drimersalazar]

That one is one of his easiest riffs

[@seth3830]

It’s easy to sing and play if you make the songs yourself

[@brucefouts974]

cause he's david frickin mustaine...lol clearly

[@ronpaul1082]

Him singing Take no prisoners or poison was the cure while playing is most impressive

[@Moukeaf]

Only thing that sucks about this song is that they don't play it live anymore :(

[@lous2187]

Yeah the songs are great off System Has Failed especially this and Kick The Chair

[@darrenburns123]

So so sad they don't play some of these tunes... Weird cause they are easier on the voice than some of the ones they play..

[@gosiasamosia7796]

Totally agree.... 😢

Hello is Russia Megadeth forever

[@PedroRosvill]

Mustaine looks like he was in the 80's! "The System Has Failed" - Great album by the way...

[@H.E.M.]

The system has failed is so underrated. Crazy how unique sounding and melodic the whole album is and it was all Dave. People always be like the first 4 are the only good yet 99% of the time they never listen to anything other than Peace and Rust.

[@happycanayjian1582]

Don’t forget Poland’s contributions on TSHF…. 🎸

[@Mitsurugi-Ryu]

4:10 The Classic Dave Scream

[@mikeghiradelli1163]

That whole line is my favorite part of the song. "'Cause you... knew... all along... I am the scorpion... OWW!!!!" Absolutely epic!

[@kurzackd]

03:48 - 04:03 -- holy SHIT what an insane run !!! No wonder he's considered the best! :O

[@kramcruz4159]

Theres a lot people hate SHF album,but wtf this is their underrated album IMO

[@chenni6438]

Great song, great album!!

my first concert ever, epic!

[@xico9147]

I had the pleasure of seeing Megadeth play this song alive on the 2005 Blackmail the Universe Tour with a setlist of 25 songs. São Paulo/Brazil.

[@DeadMikeConcertVideos]

my fave song, wished they would play this more live

[@KaptenAntonL]

Best song from the best album ever!!

[@hernandezalucard]

great song! great posting!! thanks for sharing...

[@jair.g.m.7835]

Uno de los temas más infravalorados de Megadeth.

[@bahannon]

One of my favorite albums!

[@iSellPeace]

@embassyhotel You're right. I've read his book too. He DID have alchoholism, but he got over it, realizing it was pointless. Anyone who listens to Megadeth, or even Metallica should read Mustaine's book. He's got a hell of a story to tell.

[@archange1717]

Great song

[@toliveistodie93]

Dave kick someone in 1:12

[@evanderguitarist]

He was fired.

[@haroldbravo246]

While playing his solo hahahaha what a legend

[@MrSUPERTWINKIE]

My favorite Megadeth song! Still kicks so much ass

[@DarkSide.666]

It’s a shame they don’t play this song anymore, it’s very underrated

[@frankusyoung4198]

James nailed the backing vocals

[@Lightwarriorwisdom777]

Ellefson left in 2002 because he felt he wasn't getting the money he deserved and actually sued Mustaine. But they reconciled and are now back together.

[@alphaduck8542]

YourFearIsReal thats not why he left lmao

[@skywils]

this comment did age well haha

[@arvindshastry6434]

In 2002, Dave Mustaine suffered a very bad nerve injury which destroyed his ability to play guitar so because of this Megadeth disbanded. Dave had to relearn how to play guitar.

[@AtomicBear18]

Aged like fucking milk

[@capgameplays9561]

awesome!!!

[@wubbalubbadubdub8918]

James MacDonough got some nice vocals

[@themrsunshineyay]

i'm a metallica fan and I fucking love this song!!!!!

[@hectorito6000]

0 dislikes, its just megadeth

[@fearview]

will he be able to sing like this again? :| .

[@aidencantrell8534]

i think his neck surgery in i think 2009 pretty much ruined his voice

[@cajdajan5845]

@@aidencantrell8534 i agree but in 2010 dave's voice was pretty good

Never mess with Dave Mustaine

[@mechaaron]

My life, is everything That feeds my thirst, that causes sin My wants, are all I care No shame and guilt, there's nothing there Look deep, into my face I sell deceit, without a trace Fear not, what I can do Unless you, want it done to you As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting I will, tell you what you want to hear and not mean anything Then I, treat you like a dog, as I shoot my venom in You pretend you didn't know, that I am a scorpion, oh! My self, I'm centered in There's nothing else, there's never been And I dream, to be left alone With the sadness, the madness of my own Look deep, into my soul It's black as coal, like a bullet hole Fear not, get off your knees There's no defense, you'll do what I please, oh! As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting I will, tell you what you want to hear and not mean anything Then I, treat you like a dog, as I shoot my venom in You pretend you didn't know, that I am a scorpion, oh! As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting I will, tell you what you want to hear and not mean anything I will, treat you like a dog, as I shoot my venom in 'Cause you knew all along, I am a scorpion, ya! My lies, to reach the shore I aggrandize, and nothing more My hopes, to steal away All that you love, I'll soon betray Look deep, into my past The pain I deal, is unsurpassed I'm not, a lowly scorpion I'm so much worse; I'm the fall of man Fighting broke out overnight between rival factions along the Israeli-Syrian border Initial reports claimed Israeli jet fighters bombed the guerrilla base killing at least 49 soldiers and 13 civilians... A 49 year old unidentified man went berserk last night opening fire with a 12-gauge shotgun in a crowded downtown restaurant 14 people are dead including 3 children... A crackdown on laboratory experiments on animals is expected to become law today Animal rights activists have been pushing for the bill for 9 years and have taken part in mass demonstrations throughout the nation... Police have smashed a multi million dollar drug smuggling ring 22 pounds of heroin was seized along with a small amount of cocaine, marijuana and hashish 25 people have been arrested and face charges ranging from smuggling to possession for the purpose of trafficking

Man, from the way he dresses and performs you would never think Mustaine was one of the kings of metal music. I’m sorry but the performance quality here is so extremely low, and it really can’t be understated how important that is to “success.” Success shouldn’t be the only things that’s important in music but Mustaine has openly talked about how he spent most of his career feeling like he had the success he should’ve had with Metallica ripped away from him. The music can be the greatest music ever, and in Mustaine’s case it was, but there’s such little fun, and that’s what he was missing. Metallica still to this day holds down stadiums of hundreds of thousands with ease.

[@radu2715]

I doubt that's a Jackson.
