Testament - Return to Serenity (Acoustic Version)

A great version of their famous song, taken from the "Live at the Fillmore" album released in 1995. Enjoy!

[@martasmolka4819]

20 years and still sound great, that must be a classic tune.

[@Mithradatha]

I'm gonna take you To a place far from here No one will see us Watch the pain as it disappears No time for anger No time for despair Won't you come with me There's room for us there This innocent beauty My words can't describe This rebirth purity Brings a sullen tear, right to your eyes No time for anger No time for despair Please let me take you 'Cause I'm already there I'm so alone My head's my home I return to serenity Rhyme without reason is why children cry They see through the system That's breeding them, just so they die So please let me take you And I'll show you the truth Inside my reality We shared in youth [CHORUS:] I'm so alone My head's my home And I feel So alone (So alone) At last (At last) I return to serenity Now that I've taken you To a place far from here I really must go back Close your eyes and we'll disappear Won't you come with me Salvation we share Inside of my head now There's room for us there

[@panduro37]

Nice version! What really got me was the female background vocalist

[@MrBlackbeard59]

Acoustic or electric; this is a bad azz song !

[@yousifchuck123]

In my opinion this is the best solo ever played. Without no doubt

[@anthonydavella8350]

agreed!!

[@SefniAsheforr]

Why does everyone have to compare Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Testament, Exodus, Death Angel, and all the thrash bands to each other? Why the fuck can't we agree they all kick fucking ass?

[@conanholmes8620]

Garrus my fellow turian i ask my self this oh so often!

[@metalfansavarani]

MelanicDisaster heack yes

[@69draven73]

What's good is we all know and jam to many songs of theres🤘

[@sepulmattica7649]

Because that’s what bored assed people on social media do now days…back in the day when we got bored? We would go and see all these bands together!

[@higgsbosontesticle]

because they don't, duh

[@apenasmaisumaconta]

Uma das melhores músicas de todos os tempos considerando todos os aspectos possíveis.

[@prbr641]

+Karine R. sem dúvidas, letra perfeita, arranjos lindos e um solo destruidor, já vai fazer 3 anos que descobri esse som e ele continua mágico como na primeira vez que escutei.

[@MarceloSivaRocha]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAltamente padrão!

[@rafaelrp07]

Imagina eu que escuto um pouco de Testament mas não sabia dessa pegada mais light. Estava um dia escutando David Gilmour e Pink Floyd e descobri este som aqui....orgasmo musical nível 1.000!

[@havymetal67]

Karine R. realmente...

[@vousmevoyez7296]

Me emociono com essa música toda vez que a ouço. É incrível que um som possa ser tão perfeito...

[@cesarmorales1630]

I'm so alone, my head's my home and I feel... so alone, so you know, at last... I return to serenity. Sad and painful lines...

[@johnbarraco7486]

WHAT A KICK ASS VERSION OF A KICK ASS SONG FROM A KICK ASS BAND...so damn good

[@deligiannidisargiris7729]

So beautiful. Thank you

[@xWaspKnife]

best live album of all time! Just seen these guys last year and they still sound amazing!

[@leonardoevangelista7]

God Bless this song!!

I was introduced to this song from the 'return to the apocalyptic city' ep way back in about '94 when i was 15, loved it ever since 🤘😀🤘

[@OrlandoCabreraLOVO]

Que espectacular , esto pocas veces se supera y muy pocos pueden tener el privilegio de escucharla en el momento justo.

[@carolefleurot1545]

Excellent ! gives me shivers , great voices ! Amazing voices in the end, in the back (herd them in my earphones ), I love it !

[@chs69]

Girl backing vocal so good

[@lg4024]

The best ballad of the rock´s world

[@Maybe_Later]

I play this song two years ago in an audition.. Damn i forgot the emotion that i used to feel in that time. Great song

[@autumnwind9684]

Return to serenity!!

[@AntonioGazzaneo91]

beautiful version

[@jroblesart]

man the Chorus of Ladies in the Background really takes this song into the stratosphere, this is the definitive version of this song

[@VandelayKavorka]

Perfection

[@MatthewKonrad]

Goosebumps! Verifiable goosebumps! Return To Serenity is one of my favorite songs ever and this rendition is just amazing. I still prefer the original but, damn this is really, really, really good.

[@ferox965]

I actually prefer this one. The backing singer takes it to another level.

[@НиколайЛазарев-ц5ж]

Хит на все времена, да ещё в акустической версии. Супер.))

[@vedrancolak3890]

Always happy when I hear it. What a "modular" band they are.

[@dewocan35]

"i'm so alone my head's my home and i feel so alone you know at last i'll return to serenity"

[@jorgerattlehead95]

Maybe one day i will hear this amazing metal ballad on live here in santiago de chile..... Testament rules

[@societydwellingifd8080]

When I lived in Lauderhill,Fla I used to play this on cassette all the time, so much it wore out and I had to buy another one. My neighbors didn't like me much, or maybe it was the TESTAMENT, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, DEATH ANGEL, METALLICA, -O- -Z- -Z- -Y- and all the other metal music. I can only imagine the torment I could've inflicted onto them if iPods were invented back then!

[@alfredoivanmh]

voy a llevarte a un lugar muy lejos de aquí nadie nos verá observa como el sufrimiento desaparece sin tiempo para la desesperación sin tiempo para la desaparición no vendrás conmigo hay un lugar para nosotros allá esta belleza inocente mis palabras no pueden describir este renacimiento de pureza brota un lágrima hosca de tus ojos sin tiempo para la cólera sin tiempo para la desesperación por favor déjame llevarte porque yo estoy allí estoy tan solo mi cabeza es mi casa regresaré a la serenidad rima sin la razón es porque los niños lloran no se dejan engañar por el sistema que los cría hasta que mueren así que por favor déjame llevarte y te mostraré la verdad dentro de mi realidad compartimos la juventud (coro) estoy tan solo mi cabeza es mi casa y me siento tan solo lo sabes al final regresaré a la serenidad ahora que te he llevado a un lugar tan lejos de aquí en verdad debo regresar cierra tus ojos y desapareceremos no vendrás conmigo la salvación que compartiremos dentro de mi cabeza ahora hay un lugar para nosotros allá

[@riccardolabelva1881]

I still can't decide which version I prefer more, but this is one of my best if not the best of testament songs!

[@MrAtomicDon]

Thank you

[@joelrodriguezortiz7005]

[@ezgiarifoglu2972]

Awesomeeeeee!!!!!!

[@dorcap7]

An amazing performence for an amazing song! Slightly better than the original version... It took me some time to realize that it's James Murphy playing this version and not Alex Skolnick...

[@countwolverinedraculia-ord4253]

Where can I find tab for this acoustic version?

[@futurexjam2]

I like this song, also I like listening acoustic epic songs but I cant listen heavy brutal songs! brutal ones are like enjoying hatred, anger, beyond rebellion. But this soft beauty is so epic, I love it!

[@conspiracionesy]

Hope some day return to my serenity

@futurexjam2 Hatred and anger are also human emotions my friend :) Music should represent every emotion of us,not just the good ones,that's art,madness! I love this song too! But the genre I choose to listen every time is different! That's because it depends from my mood!

Idk why people in comments didnt talk about the amazing performance Chuck Billy did hear. His voice is so so so beautiful

[@areswolf76]

Agreed with that, mate! His voclas are outstanding on this record, also the live performance!

[@w.w.7469]

I'm Like Seriouslah!!!!!!

[@Theshark15z]

And he actually recorded his voice unlike Nothing Else Matters where they just re-used the same vocal track from the black album.

[@mikejoe3551]

Chuck's voice is spot on. Too bad Peterson's (who is doing the back up vocals. I think.) is pretty spotty

[@donnam5102]

The acoustic & background vocals take this song I've played 1000000000 times to an entirely different level. The punch of electricity inserted wonderfully.

[@markcraig1389]

Star Nayea sang the background vocals! Some of her own material is amazing, worth the look for sure! ;)

[@damianlee5438]

Agreed. Love how no one ever mentions how he totally nails one of Skolnicks best solos (in fact he nailed most of them when I saw them in concert) but Skolnick can't seem to play ANY of Murphy's solos. James Murphy is a metal God. And so overlooked.
