A member posted a song here and it was some 70's hard rock with crazy piano/keyboard playing and a crazy singer... Anyone know what i'm talking about? It was an original but i forgot the bands name and song. Help would be appreciated! It was also a live video on some TV show i'm pretty sure.

Here is my guess...Focus- "Hocus Pocus"

I think that it's probably Hocus Pocus too but in the interests of offering an alternative
This isn't Seventies but it's definitely got crazy singer, crazy keyboards aplenty!

So did guitarist Gary Hoey, replacing yodelling with shredding gee-tar (excuse the terrible quality video)...
As did Helloween...

This is driving me nuts.
The intro guitar bit...what is it? Sounds SO familiar, but I can't place it.

I don't know but after listening it a couple of times to try to figure it out, the song is starting to grow on me!

Sort of reminds me of the opening to "Dream On".

Is it "The Call Of Ktulu" I'm being reminded of? Might be, now that I think about it. At first I thought it was a Testament tune, but it's not. Might be Metallica. I know it's an old metal tune it reminds me of.
Anyway, I actually like the song, too. One Minute Silence have been pimping these guys on Facebook for a while now.

Ok. So I have a song that pops in my head once in a while and I can't for the life of me remember. This is hard cause I don't have much to go on except a video on mtv many years ago. It is a mid to late 80's rock to hard rock song with the only part I can remember is something like "guns to the sky..." The song was basically about not giving up. I've only ever heard it once and I've never been able to get it out of my head or figure out who it is. If I had to guess I'd say the band was from Europe. It was a catchy song, that I didn't pay much attention to, but somehow it got stuck in my head. The reason it has bugged me all these years is because I've never heard it since and I don't think I can get it out of my head until I figure it out.

No that's not it. For awhile I thought the band was 21 Guns, but I've previewed their songs and none of them clicked.

I agree with "The Call of Ktulu", but it also has a very similar intro as this song:
