Wield My Sword

The 1999 album “Alchemy” drew attention as a work that reunited vocalist Mark Boals—renowned for his piercing high range—and Yngwie after a long time.

Among its tracks, the standout speed tune is “Wield My Sword.” Not limited to this song, the album as a whole showcases an exhilarating, all-out shredding style, and elements like the heavy B melody and the chorus with a memorable hook suggest it was crafted free from constraints.

Since 2012, Yngwie has taken on lead vocals himself.

You Don’t Remember, I’ll Never Forget

This is “You Don’t Remember, I’ll Never Forget,” a classic mid-tempo rock tune that has been beloved by fans for many years, featured as the opening track on the 3rd album, Trilogy.

The distinctive rhythmic phrasing in the intro serves as an accent, and many listeners were likely surprised at first, finding it hard to catch the rhythm.

For some reason, the Japanese edition abbreviated the title to “You Don’t Remember,” but the full title—and the chorus lyrics—carry a poignant feeling that further elevates the melody.
