Malmsteen, Yngwie - As Above, So Below Lyrics






There's a hole in the sky
But don't ask me why
Because I don't know
There is a long way to go
Future will show
Where the road is leading me

I will never die
'Cause I will fly
To the other side

I'm trying to fight
For what is right
But evil spirits pass me by
They do what they want
They just don't care
What you feel or what you say

I will never die
'Cause I will fly
To the other side

There's a hole in the sky
But don't ask me why
Because I don't know
There is a long way to go
Future will show
Where the road is leading us

I will never die
'Cause I will fly
To the other side

    Really???.wuaaa could you tell me more about it

    M.... B....

    Lucifer? No, bud. Hermes Trismegistus!

  23. C.... B....

    Heard this many, many years ago while working in the garage listening to the radio. They had just played a Motley Crue album in it's entirety and then they played this and I was just in awe. I parked it in my young brain and years later it haunted me until I tracked it down and then the awe was back. I love this song so much.

  24. S.... S....

    A True Masterpiece..

  25. �.... ....

    잉베이 곡 중에서 가장 바로크 적인 곡.... 특히 중간에 3현 아르페지오 솔로가 정말 엄청나게 끝내줌

  26. A.... C....

    This riff remember me the end of the solo of Revelation (Ozzy).

  27. g.... 1....

    As high so high

  28. C.... B....

    First time I heard this on the radio... I was in awe. Already a solid metal fan (Priest, AC/DC, Sabbath, Metallica) and then the world changed.

    C.... B....

    Yep. It was like hearing Eddie for the first time but scary as opposed to fun. Also, I dunno WHERE you were but nothing like this was played on the radio ever in the Bay Area!

  29. U.... W....

    & play it on a Stratocaster. do it, Do it, DO IT. ACHIEVE . ALL single coils.

  30. U.... W....

    shut n play as good as yngwie malmsteen. then I mite consider listening 2 ur album , then maybe buy it. party rebel knows the difference between 3 chords of music & CLASSICAL METAL ROCK Rock ROCK.

  31. U.... W....

    again & Again & AGAIN this is CLASSICAL METAL ROCK, not simpleton 3 chord rock. fools . I don't know u people. REPENT.!!!

  32. M.... F....

    Redécouvert grâce à Anthox ! Merci mec !

  33. L.... O....

    this song still gives me the chills after all these years. it's that good!

  34. R.... D....

    RIP Jeff Scott Soto's singing voice.

    R.... D....

    Does he passed away?

    R.... D....

    @Hessi Michaus he said "RIP for singing voice", not dead 🤘🏽😃

  35. L.... N....

    I used to listen to this as a teen nicking this album from my big metal head bro :) Sweet memories

  36. M.... C....

    Def one of Yngwie's best solos.

  37. A.... A....

    ¡Malmsteen rules!

    A.... A....

  39. E.... F....

    GENIO!!! HERMOSA DESDE PRINCIPIO A FIN!!!

    a.... r....

    +Jammer0069 fuck you bitch there's a hole in the sky don't ask me why cos i dont know what a lyrical masterpiece fuckhead

    a.... r....

    By his own admission, Malmsteen isn't much of a lyricist, and his frequent use of occult and pagan imagery isn't as effective at producing a dark, gothic mood as his compositions and guitar playing are.

  42. k.... m....

    Jeff Scott Soto should have sung more than these 2 song on this album.

    k.... m....

    It was the record company who wanted an instrumental album. Yngwie actually wanted more songs with vocals than just 2.

    k.... m....

    Right... Just red it in his book "Memoir", together with tons of other interesting details about his amazing life and career! :)

    k.... m....

    Marching out made up for it.The solo(s) on "Soldier without Faith" are arguably the best he ever did.

  43. O.... E....

    maestro!!

  44. A.... A....

    algum BR que curte malmsteen ?

    A.... A....

    Eu vim parar Aqui por causa de uma camisa que comprei

    No one was scared of this song, ever.

    S.... ....

    Some kids on halloween were apparently.

    S.... ....

    You're so beautiful and pretty

    S.... ....

    Could you explain me "why" beautiful?

  50. D.... p....

    M.... ....

    @MrKaable Yes, it's him.

    M.... ....

  52. M.... a....

    Perfect....love this one

  53. A.... R....

    When I was a kid I was allergic to most candy and thus couldn't trick-or-treat. However, my mom made it up to me by decorating the front porch with all the trimmings- cobwebs, fog machine, you name it. But the pièce de resistance was this song, which she played on repeat manually from the actual vinyl album. Some kids were too scared to come up.

    A.... R....

    +Jorge PB don't forget thsanksgiving

    A.... R....

    Araxie Rose: Your Mom sounds pretty cool but like all parents she wasn't perfect. After all, she did name you Araxie.

    A.... R....

    coolest mom ever

    A.... R....

    Araxie Rose don't we all just love holloween. This past Halloween I saw a ghost manifest itself in what's called ectoplasm on a bridge, when I got back I got into the shower and mysteriously had a song called "ghost" on my phone and the intro actually reminded me of it. To bad a got locked out my phone and had to reset it.

    A.... R....

    Got to love Yngwie from my mom too!

  54. C.... B....

    Pure Genius 

  55. R.... D....

    Am I the only one that thinks of this song when I see the movie of the same name in commercials on TV? 

  56. P.... ....

    fuck vocal =(

  57. R.... K....

    This intro reminds me of frankenstein, am I the only one?

    R.... K....

    yep , it sounds like something out of a horror movie 

    R.... K....

    @Ro Knrol Check out J.S. Bach - Toccata and Fugue in D minor

    R.... K....

    @Mikael Hetfield​ i will :)

  58. S.... ....

    2:05 just sounds perfect!

    S.... ....

    Susboyardee Yes it’s incredible!!

  59. f.... ....

    I could listen to this song a thousand times in a row and not get tired of it!  LOVE it!

    f.... ....

    Me too.

    f.... ....

    Yes, 1000 times yes. A timeless classic!

    f.... ....

    i love you

  60. M.... C....

    THis shit still sounds raw as fuck to me haha. Classic.

  61. K.... J....

    If you listen to the beginning of the solo you can hear a clear Holdsworth influence for a few seconds.  Never noticed that before, and i ve heard this song hundreds of times.

    K.... J....

    Well he always name drops him when talking about guitar greats.

  62. Z.... R....

    openly illuminating 

  63. S.... ....

    Randy actually wanted to leave rock and roll altogether and practice classical guitar . He once told Ozzy he wanted to teach at his mum's school when they weren't on tour. Nice guy he was, unlike a lot of other guitarists of his generation.

    S.... ....

    What does this have to do with this song?

  64. J.... R....

    Thanks for the input, I see that you have mixing skills of some sort (I was mixing some things on my own when I read your comment). I´ll check some of those records you mention. Was listening to Yngwie´s "I´m a viking" and the drum mix sounded much better that this (wet snare sound still there but it is more focused).

  65. K.... A....

    Yeah, it was typical in the 80´s ...We can hear a good example in the Ozzy albums recorded in the 80 ´s , so it was not a question of limitations, as mencioned Grassieb in a previous comentary, but simply made in purpose.Another godd example is Flush the Fashion , Alice Cooper,1980,it was a tendance.That is why Iron Maiden Lps from the 80s still sound good, beacuse the sound was clear and natural, excpt of course in the volume and compression, higher and higher LP after LP,THE LOUDNESS WAR!!!

  66. J.... R....

    For my taste also the snare is too in loud and messes with the overall rhythm. But it also true that this was the typical wet snare sound of the eighties.

  67. K.... A....

    Powersalve by Iron maiden was recorded the same year and the drums sound impecable...Who´s next? by the Who 1972, the same , great recording and production, as well as every Led Zep album...etc

  68. l.... ....

    Taking into consideration this was recorded in 1984...

  69. O.... R....

    Its been a year since the last time i heard this song...still rules!

  70. K.... A....

    it is still my favorite Malmsteen LP, but the way the drums are recorded is quite bad for me, well, the main problem is the snare, the should remix this album, in my opinion, but I repeat, the main problem resides in the drums track.

  71. G.... ....

    Havent heard this in ages. Incredible.

  72. c.... ....

    Alternative picking above all - first rule of neoclassical :)

  73. P.... G....

    Shit! This song live is ten thousand times better! The studio version sounds more like videogame.

  74. V.... ....

    i thought this was a behemoth cover hahah

  75. D.... W....

    The solo is my favorite Yngiwe piece, easily.

  76. E.... S....

    I forgot about this song for a while but the other day in the gym this sound on my ipod and damn... i felt so fuckin pumped

  77. M.... H....

    AMEN, that video fuckin rules

  78. E.... D....

    He is the master nothing other to say !!!!!!

  79. E.... R....

    There's a hole in the sky, but please, good sir, don't even ask me because I don't know.

  80. E.... V....

    BEST ALBUM EVER !!!!!!!!!

  81. b.... ....

    omg... I miss this period of yngwie's life, his playing was obviously different than today, he used less distortion back then, and the solos had a different feel, it was awsome, its still awsome today too, but different.

  82. M.... ....

    LIKE A DRAGON FLYING !

  83. i.... ....

    please, keep us away from the obvious! Given the fact that he is GOD of guitar heroes, he is the MASTER consequently...

  84. j.... b....

    por que es la 19 en la lista deveria ser de las primeras

  85. j.... f....

    still very legato

  86. T.... ....

    What T hell are you talking about fuck you gay!!!!! .l.
    gayber is shit and malmsten is god!!

  87. S.... ....

    you must pay with life

  88. R.... a....

    It's bombastic...

  89. S.... ....

    dat interlude, pure fucking genius

  90. s.... ....

    good observation

  91. M.... P....

    thanks for the upload

  92. D.... W....

    This is probably my favorite solo of his. Instead of that regular legato sound, he does a more distinct attack sound and it goes for like a minute straight.

  93. F.... V....

    Really true dude, this album kickass!, but you should listen to Jason Becker's "Perpetual Burn" it's other kind of neoclassical but still kicking ass.

  94. S.... ....

    As much as I like Rising Force, it pales in comparison to the neoclassical MASTERPIECE that is the entire Japan concert with the orchestra...that concert and the music therein is what inspired me to once again, after a long hiatus from guitar, become completely and utterly devoted to it once more.

    For me the inspiration to play guitar is Yngwie and the classics, not rock or any of the ubiquitous pentatonic boxes.

  95. S.... ....

    There's something incredibly sexy about the harmonic minor scale...you go from a regular minor scale, change one note to a sharp, and all of a sudden you've got a scale and chord progression which transcends boundaries...
    It really is quite amazing.

    YNGWIE IS GOD

  96. S.... ....

    It's THE neoclassical album...neoclassical IS Yngwie...Yngwie IS neoclassical. He's so awesome he has his own genre.
