[@ChorusArtists]

That a man ever possessed this voice at the same time as having the amazing gift/chops on guitar remains one of the great genetic events of Canadian music history. Had Rik Emmett stuck it out with rock, he'd be a household name in the entire western hemisphere. But he followed his muse into jazz and classical, and that work was equally brilliant. Where are there any vocalists of equal range and expression in today's music? Not even close....

[@nickhill8612]

You are absolutely right.

[@jaymccarthy6535]

I agree completely. The only musician out there that I would say had just as good a voice and chops is Gary Moore. There's so many amazing guitarist out there but only a handful can sing too.

They all scream now. Use auto-tune and even rap sometimes. Musicians left behind all the soul & feeling. They achieve it through aggressiveness rather than melody and harmonies along with discipline and exceptional musicianship. That's my opinion and nobody can change it.

If you want to see what he is up to these days, look what he is doing in his solo acts. Plays once in a while at small venues which re always sell out's.

I beat you by a year and wouldn't change one single minute. I saw these guys live in '87. I was maybe 10 feet from Rik for the whole show. I remember two things prominently about that night: seeing this incredibly tall guitarist in a band called Black n Blue shred like there was no tomorrow and wondering why he wasn't in a bigger band (Tommy Thayer) and singing along with Rik Emmett when he pointed right at me and nodded. I was a kid who had a job that paid just enough to have a room in a house I shared with two buddies, the occasional house party, and every concert I wanted to see. I may have wasted a decade of my retirement on the front end, but I'll never regret it. Those were the days.

[@PraiseTheRockRadio]

75 actually. Was there ever another power trio with such talent and ability, harmonic vocals and melodies, and such powerful music with such a positive messages as them in the history of classic rock? Some would say Rush right away I;m sure, but although they had very comparable lead vocals, the harmonies Triumph possessed were not comparable, and Rush's message was as much more on the esoteric end of the spectrum just as much as their music was on the progressive end of the spectrum. Both were incredible power trios though for certain! The Police took it into a new fusion era whereas ZZ Top held onto more of the classic rock feel from the hard rock era of Jimi Hendrix and Cream with a bit more of the commercial side of the classic rock era, whereas those that followed after the Police brought it into more of a grunge approach like Nirvana and Green Day.

If you're listening to the big, multi-market stations (or even the multi-station corporations) you're doing it wrong. The best new stuff is generally not played on them until the very last. Of course, that has always been the case to some extent. Check out The Rockets - also from the 80s (kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6vEq5p9Yt5qq68). Big in Michigan but never got nationwide. Have friends in other countries suggest some music. Go down the rabbit hole of KZbin suggestions and eventually you'll find yourself with something fresh and energizing. Maybe Mongolian Folk Metal like The Hu (their languages word for Mongol), Bosa Nova like Nova (out of Brazil), or rock like Indigenous. It is out there.

One of the greatest Canadian songs. Rush and Triumph are the best power treo EVER!!

[@Icepacalapse]

unbelievable singing........even a climactic high note near the end.....Epic rock.

[@williamsain5755]

probably the best live musicians ever badass

[@williamgotwalt9753]

William Sain you got that right brother they kicked ass in the 80s especially when they did live shows

[@billiewallace6250]

2019- Still rockin' my soul.

[@firehorse_44alpha-omega]

Long live TRIUMPH ! STILL ROCKING KZbin 2019 !

[@themeh3411]

The ending on this version is absolute gold!

[@perrycalder6483]

If You Don't Know What it takes to put a POWER TRIO on stage and make a show like DYNOMITE Tri apptually then you don't know TRIUMPH. Their Musical production is next to none, Their visual and lighting. Same. Pyro Same. (I am a Pyro Tech.). We are talking about one of the best bands in the world and you know why? Because they still touch our hearts. Dare to prove Me Wrong.

[@eudymaverickmentor]

@Perry Calder. I guess you missed the 2nd guitar player on stage. NOT a power trio if there are 4 of them. Just saying.

[@deancrutchfield7061]

I WAS PRIVILEGE TO SEE TRIUMPH IN 1984 DURING THEIR " THUNDER 7 TOUR ".! " MAGIC POWER " " FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT " & " LAY IT ON THE LINE " ARE MY 3 TOP FAVORITES. JUST PURE LYRICS BY RIK AND MOST EXCELLENT LEAD, RHYTHM AND DRUMS. TRULY A PURE BAND. NEVER ANY DEBAUCHERY, SEX, DRUGS OR CUSS WORDS...EVER.! DEFINITELY MUSIC TO LISTEN TO WHEN ONE IS IN NEED OF UPLIFTING OR A PERSPECTIVE CHANGE.!!👍🤙

[@timothybond100]

YUP

[@Steve.Cutler]

The most under rated band ever!!

[@Curado64]

This song grabbed my heart when I was a young kid and guided me through....

[@tracyconner1497]

Lyle Galloway so great 😀

[@mikedriggers4874]

I hear you.. Never ever give up. Stays with you.

[@christinepeck3098]

Me as well

[@mattforrest528]

This is such a bad ass version of this song. Those people got themselves a real treat that night. From the look of it many of them were making memories, right in the moment.

[@SonyaSuza]

Sending this song from one of my favorite bands to my littlest love Aubree....you're so brave my sweet and your fighting the good fight honey. It's okay that you've been in the pediatric ICU for 13 days now, it's okay you spent your 7th birthday there, Grandma swears things will turn around for you and we will celebrate HUGE once you get better! I'm praying hard for you baby girl! This too shall pass! ❤️

[@tomtermini1254]

Rik Emmett is the Greatest Rock Singer of ALL-TIME!!!

[@paulponte2138]

100% no freaking doubt

[@sharrybucholz815]

I was falling in love with my husband when I heard Triumph play. There songs among other things are why we have been married 36 yrs!

[@lindaclark9925]

I was in love to . With alllll the fantastic music....

[@marlo9380]

Best lyrics!!! Love this song!! #80's

[@mikefonseca2255]

Triumph will always be remembered in San Antonio TX "we love you "

[@troyennis7791]

Love this song

[@moncorp1]

"Nothing is easy. Nothing good is free"...... Man there are a lot of human rats who need to hear this message these days.

[@MrBackoftheface]

Yeah I don’t think that’s quite the message of the song

[@DarhaLB]

Sadly, yes

[@johnburkhardt462]

It is a true statement, which I learned a little late in life

[@JustSomeDude_.]

Yep, country full of em with hands out.

[@toe2328]

"So, give and take the best that you can" 🖖😉

[@josephlegacy4879]

Man that voice!!!

[@trinitytrin5265]

*Truly Iconic Band That Will Live On In Every Fight We Fight In 2019 -2020*

[@BW-kv9wj]

No doubt

[@Zak6959]

If only people nowadays would get it.

[@MahdiTheMagician]

During one of the final solos when you think it can't go any higher.... then it explodes!!!

[@Bonkrr]

Just one of the best guitar players in the world. Rik can make Eddy Van Halen seem adequate, which is by no means a slight on Eddie, who is also fantastic.

[@jfpbear]

His vocals...wow

[@timothybond100]

This music is lost in these days. Meaningful lyrics, bad ass musicianship.... Music these days cannot compare

[@donmckeoun7990]

Surely triumph is the most underrated band of the 1980s and 1990s they have songs with a positive message. America needs that again fight the good fight people

[@8lockednloaded874]

they get the hall of fame in canada but not usa?? wtf? triumph to me is the most badass underated rock band out their but did not receive as much credit as it should. Rik Emmett voice is amazing and his awesome solo's. hands down my fav band of all time..

[@omegablack80214]

Most Canadian bands have a hard time breaking through in the u.s because of the stigma that they're canadian. It sucks. April wine, triumph, saga, the hip, they all should have been huge. Rush only made it because they were too good to ignore.

[@joecar7769]

Isn't Neil Young in? But Agree on all points one of the best Rock Bands of the 80's

[@kevinmichael9482]

@@omegablack80214 Plenty of great Canadian bands/artist made it big in the US: BTO; Neil Young; Rush; Anne Murray; Joni Mitchell. April Wine was a great band!

[@jameshenderson7661]

They should most definitely be in the Hall of fame

[@hectorgonzalez9170]

@@jameshenderson7661 The Rock and Roll Hall of fame is joke. Ask Steve Miller lmao.

[@FrankPlesko]

Was at the '83 US Festival - it was the best live performance I ever heard. This song is SO bad ass!!

[@corinnehernandez4549]

I was there too, Triumph, JP and Scorpions were the best

[@anthonyrocco5735]

I was there there's like being at Woodstock best for days concert ever

[@anthonyrocco5735]

I was there best 4 Day concert ever just like Woodstock

[@BW-kv9wj]

I was there too at 17 years old.

[@jessicamcclelland2954]

I have loved Triumph and Ric Emmett since the 80's - and still in 2020 stand strong!

[@bethhelton3802]

One of the most underrated bands of all time. Love me some TRIUMPH !

[@hermanhelmich]

These guys knew how to play a rocksong,,

[@BluesLicks101]

Thank you for that report Captain Obvious. KZbin is a safer place, thanks to your redundantly pointing that out in the comments.

[@hermanhelmich]

Bad hair-day bro? Another Captain's reply: rock on mate!

[@masonmackinnon952]

No they don’t know how to play “a” rock song, they know how to play a bunch of great rock songs

[@josephlegacy4879]

holy crap!!!! So much talent!!!!

[@deadguyale6665]

One of my favorite bands and they never got the recognition they deserved.

[@joesartec5566]

Saw them live in Toronto they still rock👍👍😎

[@randyjohnson5426]

Damn hard to be the ONLY guitar player in the band and sing lead voclas...real talented guy!

[@DillonDigitalVideo]

Try being the drummer in a kickass band and singing! Triumph is soooo underrated!

[@toddstevens13]

Ahhh, there is a 2nd guitarist on stage, the former Kansas guitarist Steve Morse

[@The-Punnkk]

That's not Steve Morse you turd. Morse is a blonde, besides Morse is known for the Dixie Dregs not a washed up Kansas.

[@toddstevens13]

Hey fool, go to the Triumph information page where it states Morse played on this their final big tour, of which this was one of their dates. The fact that I was there and you were not, trumps your eloquent, thought provoking conversational style.

[@DillonDigitalVideo]

LOL, Todd just demonstrated severe ownage of Gregory!

[@send1here]

Rik Emmett is a one man Rocking machine!...Amazing!

[@frankiesanchez8302]

I GREW UP LISTENING TO ALL OF THIS GOOD MUSIC AND THERE WILL NEVER EVER BE ANYTHING LIKE IT AGAIN

Still crankin up the radio at 70! They don't make'em like THIS anymore! Gentlemen​, I salute you!
