#RIP Mike Howe of Metal Church 26-07-2021. Exceptional vocalist, my condolences to familaires and friends, your legacy will remain, thank you so much for everything Master Mike hoWE, rest in peace!

[@michaelstevens4999]

As a former singer in a metal band, I can tell you this song isn't easy to sing--I see some comments ranking on the singer; I loved David Wayne also, but he's gone. Some people will never be satisfied with anybody but Wayne singing this, so what, Metal Church should never play one of their songs ever again? Come on

[@darkstaroblivion]

he needs to keep it in his register , high end isnt his zone .. his lower end is fantastically haunting he really needs to make this song his own hell i cant push this like david wayne .

[@lesliethompson4039]

@@darkstaroblivion ..... Omg, I can't believe u said that.... Exactly sir. His high range isnt. Make I his own. I don't come to listen watch the children pray for this, but Wayne's version is omg, like super wow..... Rip David, God bless .... †

[@Stan_Vanderakt]

I find that all 3 versions of the song have their charms. Not to strike anything at any of them, since they are all amazing vocalists, but in my opinion I find that the version with Ronny Munroe is superior.

[@christophercouch7116]

Love this song... Just one of these songs that stay inside the mind when u first hear it...1984 was the best time for metal...this group right here..man!!! Dude vocal range ...is sick!!!!

[@stevemtc1]

He’s belting out those lyrics. I can’t remember the original singers name. But this song is not easy to sing at all and he did a fabulous job

[@kevinscarborough9982]

David Wayne

[@lesliethompson4039]

Yeah, I believe this song is very difficult to sing. Not easy at all. David Wayne's vibrato is and was super excellent. Rip David Wayne 💔😢🙏😇💓 †

[@cagf2013]

100% I love Mike’s voice actually.. All of the metal church albums with Mike singing have been bloody awesome in my opinion. Saw them live and was also impressed. The people bitching about him have a screw loose...

[@Maddogg-hg5me]

Both David Wayne and Mike Howe were outstanding yet underrated vocalists. Two great fromtmen who left us too soon.

[@ghostrder6127]

Metal Church never dies!!!

[@ghostrder6127]

Fuck....Best metal band in the world....

[@greekfreak1980]

Both singers of Metal Church, David Wayne and Mike Howe have now passed away,man..... RIP

[@Stan_Vanderakt]

Ronny Munroe was the singer for several records. Weight of the World, A Light in the Dark, This Present Wasteland and Generation Nothing if I remember correctly.

[@labra-dog]

So, never sing for them of you don't want to die 😬

Mike's voice makes this song even more special. R.I.P. Mike Howe. Your voice and legacy will be remembered forever. Also, R.I.P. David Wayne your legacy and contribution to Metal Church will be forever remembered. If any of the band is reading this by chance. I would like to say as a fan, take your time with your grief and do what you have to do to mourn. I totally get it and understand waht you're going through.

[@JCoz-hn8eo]

Metal church RULES. Understated metal band that is amazing in concert.

Saw them a couple years ago after Mike rejoined. They played with Armored Saint. Both amazing.

Man your right on the money ,

[@alexitoe30]

Bro you must mean for metal church. But you clearly haven't heard other singers Mike Howe actually is great voice. Im not going to name singers because you're hating on Mike thats all I read hate over him.

[@darthkso3745]

@@alexitoe30 I’m not hating on Mike. I’ve bought the last few records that have came out with him on vocals. I just prefer David Wayne.

[@e.lightner4094]

Grateful I saw them with David Wayne. He was flawless live.

[@Fixxer315]

I saw Metal Church headlining one of the nights at ProgPower USA in 2017, and Mike Howe was amazing. Just hearing him you wouldn't have known he was in semi-retirement for several decades, as he sounded every bit as good as he did in the early 90's. RIP to Howe, a truly incredible voice that epitomized everything that was great about metal.

[@mattwitwicki1387]

Love the band but this just isn’t a good song for Mike. I loved him on his own stuff, but just a much different voice than the original. Easily my favorite song by the band in what’s an underrated mix of songs. The sped up beginning is likely done as to not create a lull in their live set but it creates less of a dramatic build up in a very dynamic track. I was honestly hoping for a pretty reproduction live than what’s recorded here.
