Alcatrazz - Since You've Been Gone Lyrics






I get the same old dreams, same time every night
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed, put on my shoes, and in my head
Thoughts fly back to the break-up

These four walls are closing in
Look at the fix you've put me in

Since you been gone, since you been gone
I'm outta my head, can't take it
Could I be wrong, but since you been gone
You cast a spell, so break it
Ooh...
Since you been gone

So in the night I stand beneath the back street light
I read the words that you sent to me
I can take the afternoon, the night-time comes around too soon
You can't know what you mean to me

Your poison letter, your telegram
Just goes to show you don't give a damn

Since you been gone, since you been gone
I'm outta my head, can't take it
Could I be wrong, but since you been gone
You cast a spell, so break it
Ooh...
Since you been gone

If you will come back
Baby you know
You'll never do wrong

Since you been gone, since you been gone
I'm outta my head, can't take it
Could I be wrong, but since you been gone
You cast a spell, so break it
Ooh...
Ever since, you been gone

Since you been gone, since you been gone
I'm outta my head, can't take it
Since you been gone, since you been gone

Alcatrazz Since You've Been Gone Comments
  1. D.... K....

    I appreciate you selling your soul for this. Pretty sure this was Yngwie at his absolute best, playing as a part of a band with actual songs, not vehicles for soulless unnecessary note cramming. To be fair though his time with Joe Lynn Turner was damn good too. Funniest thing I ever saw Yngwie do was play Eruption note-for-note and then yawn. Arrogant and obnoxious to be sure, but the entire audience (he was opening for AC/DC) laughed and applauded.

  2. Y.... L....

    Quite easy song to play for him but even he tries to play it hardest possible

  3. d.... c....

    Yngwie was played by the V

  4. d.... c....

    But the vocals...

  5. j.... c....

    I have to say, that's about as creative I've EVER seen Malmsteen play. Nice solo without the annoying nonstop shredding. Maybe he should go back to that flying V guitar. 😂

  6. J.... P....

    YJM is a ego fuck... lol clearly this video is before he discovered donuts..

  7. S.... B....

    Yngwie - looks bored. Like this is child’s play - let me through some tricks in to keep it interesting.

  8. R.... S....

    A very good song for queen !

  9. M.... p....

    Rainbow did that song with that singer.

    M.... p....

    Yes they did.
    Also Brian May sings it with his band. Mary's guitar playing is way better than Malmsteen's.

  10. n.... g....

    Classic! Yngwie is playing an Aria Pro II V in a major key craziness

  11. B.... J....

    I feel like he could have been bigger if he wasn’t so stuck in his way.

  12. S.... k....

    This is not singing, it's shouting and sounds bad.
    Yngwie rocks and is a legend.

  13. K.... G....

    I haven't heard this song in soooo long I had forgotten about it. Damn this must be old what is he playing an Aria Pro ? Smells like the 80's LoL

    K.... G....

    Looks to be a Aria Pro.

  14. S.... p....

    Good to see yngwie actually playing as part of a band, rather than it just being the yngwie show.

    S.... p....

    Too bad it's not that easy to be in a band with Yngwie.

  15. S.... N....

    That’s the First Time I’ve seen Yngwie with a V 👌

    S.... N....

    Aria Pro II. My friend had a candy apple red one. Not too expensive.

    S.... N....

    Richard Binder So its not a Gibson or Jackson

  16. S.... O....

    Has to shout to be hard over yngwie's guitar

  17. a.... !....

    What a shitty song!

  18. A.... H....

    Oh man how did I miss this? Awesome Pro Shot video of the band back in their prime!! Thank you for this one

  19. A.... A....

    Graham bonnet an underrated, singer , sure I love Ronnie James Dio, more with Rainbow but bonnet and Joe Lynn turner dont get much credit

    A.... A....

    A lot of people whinging about Graham in the comments so nice to see a positive mention for him here, and indeed JLT (love Rainbow and love that Odyssey album he did with Yngwie too). Graham was having a slightly off night here admittedly, but he's never had the right recognition for his songwriting or singing at all and it's sad. He's very overlooked vocally, blows the house down in power alone. Still going strong nowadays too. And Yngwie is killing it here, great performance. There's too much negative criticism for that man out there, unfairly. Envy, envy and more envy usually.

    A.... A....

    When Dio left it wasn't the same band anymore, went from proto metal band to radio friendly AOR nonsense.

  20. J.... W....

    *...with the Terminator 2 on vocals...*

  21. s.... ....

    People like love songs

  22. j.... ....

    Graham is fucking on point 🔥🔥🔥

  23. T.... T....

    Cam Cooper on vocals

    T.... T....

    Lol!!!! I thought the same thing as I was watching it

  24. G.... M....

    Flanger a go go 🤷🏾‍♂️

  25. D.... V....

    As always Graham giving the 1000% singing on top and as always Malmsteen making shit every sing with his nasty and ridiculous excessive guitar pantomime

    D.... V....

    Lol u jelly

  26. N.... B....

    👊👊🤘🤘🤘🤘GRAHAN💪🇧🇷🇧🇷

  27. b.... ....

    Wow graham has black hair now . Jet black . Hmm strange

  28. D.... P....

    I did'nt know Don Dokken could play bass!

    D.... P....

    Wild Mick Brown on keys!

  29. o.... t....

    graham you a little sharp in your singing..pity you are one of the best

    o.... t....

    Seems to me much of his singing is out of tune, notby much, but noticeable. He has great range, but voice control is lacking IMHO

  30. M.... a....

    Graham bonnet

  31. V.... M....

    Douchebag

  32. R.... P....

    Jim Carrey on Vocals

    R.... P....

    Graham Bonet

    R.... P....

    James Dean 🤷🏾‍♂️
    Nah, the incredibly great Graham Bonnet, a living legend !!!!

    R.... P....

    Rick Passos 😆😀😁

    R.... P....

    @Guitarig Musik he sucks, don't like his voice at all.
    He's screaming instead of singing.

  33. S.... M....

    So it's an Aria Pro II XX Deluxe modified for Mister Malmsteen.

    S.... M....

    When's the last time you saw an Aria electric on stage anywhere?

    S.... M....

    @Chris Benson Never :-)

    S.... M....

    Thank you son much

    S.... M....

    Before he had money

  34. m.... ....

    メタリックライブで"Since You Been Gone"を弾く時に使っていたVは
    95年に渋谷の楽器屋で機材をまとめて処分した時に含まれていたはず。
    一応説明すると、当時Yngwieはある目的のためにまとまったお金が必要だったらしく
    ギター、アンプ、4トラックレコーダー、その他を売ることにした。ある出版社に話しを
    持ちかけたが「売る手段がないから」と断られたため、大手楽器店に頼んだところ、
    OKしてもらえた。
    店内に展示しておいて、値段はオークション形式だったかな。そこで売れ残った物は
    御茶の水に移して値段をつけて売ってた。そっちでクレイトのアンプ、ギブソンのストラト風シェイプの
    ギターを見た覚えがある。

  35. S.... D....

    He’s shouting and yelling. Not singing

    S.... D....

    Cause he's trying to be heard over the wall of Yngwie

  36. O.... ....

    A Flying V!?!? What the ??? \m/

  37. L.... M....

    I’ve never given Yngwie a look-in although I knew he was a fantastic guitar. However I’ve been bingeing on his video these past couple of days and wow! The precision, artistry and ease of which he plays is mind boggling.

  38. D.... N....

    Graham has the pipes!

  39. H.... M....

    lead singer prancing around like a pink pony. nothing gay about that.

  40. D.... M....

    When did Cain Dingle learn bass and join Alcatraz? 🤔

    D.... M....

    FFS Cain Dingle 😂😂😂😂

  41. T.... ....

    Yngwie playing in Major. Weird.

  42. �.... ....

    scott used yngwie for racism in japan...

    choose freak pervert :(

    😬

  43. D.... ....

    amazing

  44. J.... W....

    He sings high, I would loose my voice lol

  45. S.... M....

    Broken string and all

  46. k.... ....

    Yngwie is such a fucking showboat.

  47. K.... R....

    If, back in mid 80s , I would've been playin that song like that in the band I was in , with the older cats, they would've probably beat the shit outta me...

  48. J.... C....

    Yngwie looks so freedom before

  49. s.... s....

    The best version of this song ever.

  50. 2.... ....

    Great song, but singer (Glen what's his face) fuckin straining his voice!

  51. A.... S....

    He looks like Jim Carrey without glasses. With glasses he still looks like Jim Carrey wearing glasses.

  52. a.... a....

    I am Yngwie's fans, but Alcatraz was about Graham Bonet, not Yngwie.

  53. O.... v....

    Not only is Yngwie playing a flying V with single coil pickups but Graham Bonnet isn't even wearing shades

  54. E.... D....

    that guitar is ghetto!!! rad!!!

  55. F.... G....

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4znB4YmVZw

  56. �.... ....

    フライングVのシングルとか初めて見たけどめちゃくちゃ良い音やな欲しいw

  57. M.... D....

    Wow, a real solo 😂

  58. o.... j....

    great band

  59. r.... ....

    What is with the Flanger?

  60. �.... ....

    インギー

  61. h.... f....

    the guitar play is better than the original version

    h.... f....

    Easy there tiger. Don't get ahead of yourself.

  62. N.... K....

    He was definitely something Back then

  63. t.... ....

    Odd to see Jim Carey and Yangwie on stage....

    t.... ....

    Jim Carrey impersonating Clint Eastwood

  64. S.... A....

    Is that jim carey on vocs...lol

    S.... A....

    Bryan Adams

  65. J.... C....

    I love Yngwie and he does Justice to his song. But I've never heard anybody do a Blackmore song equal or better than Blackmore

    J.... C....

    I guess Gates of Babylon

    J.... C....

    Amen to that brother. Nobody can match Ritchie Blackmore

  66. D.... M....

    Hey Yngwie! Pirupiropiruririrororpprrjppdjdyfjrlfifokffurppiiituiuuuuuoiiiiiiipiiriririririririririifirirtotoyorururirototoititotitkffjtotiitititoyoyoyptpptoooooouuuyiiiiiiiiiii

    D.... M....

    Always better than a "Ehy Jimi (or B.B. et similia): piiiiiiiiiiiiiiru, pi-pi-pi-piiiiiiiiiiiiru, piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiru...", on the same chord progression since blues' birth. 😅 Greetings from Italy!!! 😉

  67. C.... B....

    My balls sound & play with more ambition than this pop shhhheeeeiiiiitttteee !!

  68. S.... M....

    Esse vocalista da Alcatraz! Parece tão atual, no visual. Parece ser de hoje esse show. O corte de cabelo dele, pra quem segue moda. Esta atual. Kkk

  69. J.... E....

    Worst I've ever seen!

  70. C.... M....

    Ritchie plays for the song. Yngvie always steps over the line.

  71. M.... H....

    Yngay is a dido, but the singer should be shot for his hair..

  72. c.... ....

    man...voice is such a weird thing, this guy shouts his lyrics...on the verge of doing it out of tune but still sounds cool...Vince Neil is further from singing out of tune but he just sounds bad(even while singing in tune)

  73. G.... S....

    At 1.13 turned off

  74. V.... G....

    I've never seen Yngwie play like that😂 So strange

  75. T.... P....

    He's always been a Blackmore wanna be! He's just more obnoxious.

    T.... P....

    TIM PHANEUF ....and that is going some!!

  76. G.... ....

    I LOVE the singing. He's PUMPING that out - and he sounds great yelling and singing. Totally awesome.

    G.... ....

    Graham's at 11 vocally.

  77. p.... ....

    It is obvious that Malmsteen is not capable of playing musically interesting guitar. He is always just showing off to people who do not know the instrument, or are not really interested in music (most people say that they are interested. but very few are. They just kind of like it) I just don't understand his motivation. He always jerks off these octave speed-balls that just doesn't give any meaning. Why does he even pretend to play music? I am a great fan of guitarists like Blackmore, but that's a whole different league. This is just sad.

    p.... ....

    I'll translate your statement for everyone else.  You suck, can't play technical & are jealous.  LMAO.

  78. 0.... ....

    Probably the best I've ever heard him play. No scales at 100mph that dont fit the rhythm.

  79. R.... H....

    The best singer Blackmore ever had but he was to up himself to realise it. he still sound great today cant wait till the new album is out Bonnet is the best singer in rock nobody can touch him

    R.... H....

    Ummmmm......not better than ronnie james dio!!!!!

  80. k.... 5....

    Never heard these guys before...weird mix of Rock styles of the time...not all that good but odd

  81. �.... ....

    この当時、6万円程度だったAriaPro2のフライングVが、
    デジマートとかでもとんでもない値段になってるわ。。。

    �.... ....

    Of course.

  82. s.... s....

    Only Yngwie would put single coils in humbucker slots!

  83. b.... l....

    So great to see graham on tour with Michael schenker last year

  84. J.... W....

    Graham Bonnett

  85. g.... t....

    This shows that Malmsteen was never meant to play for any band!! He was meant to be a solo artist!! As we all know he wants the spotlight on him at all times!!

  86. E.... F....

    Great quality recording and proformance. Zero overdubs!!!

  87. S.... O....

    Since you been gone I scream when I sing then I shout like I'm shitting!!!
    Singer looks like
    Huey Lewis....

  88. m.... s....

    flying V doesn't suit you sir

  89. 2.... ....

    That James dean singing?

    2.... ....

    It's David Bowie.

    2.... ....

    Graham Bonnet

    2.... ....

    Some ppl mistake Bonnet for Jim Carrey, also.

  90. C.... O....

    Who is this imposter playing a V? 😂😂😂

    C.... O....

    It's Michael Schenker wearing a wig that was made in Sweden.

    C.... O....

    @Mr ClassicMetal Lmfao

  91. I.... B....

    What a great performance!! Very wow

  92. I.... B....

    What a great performance!! Very wow

  93. A.... v....

    Muito bom o som

  94. H.... ....

    That singer is terrible

  95. J.... S....

    He's killin it on that $ 200 Aria guitar...Graham is a dork though...

    J.... S....

    Ha ha 200 dollar Aria is true but made in the best guitar factory in the world since Fender (in Fullerton, CA where I live) - Matsumoku in Japan. Aria made some of the best affordable lawsuits around! Graham had a great voice AND he could sell you a car as well...

  96. M.... N....

    Yngwie's so damn loud the singers screaming... when Vai joined he came down in volume and the band sounded better live. But no denying the Yngwie chapter was the best

    M.... N....

    Bonnet was a good singer

    M.... N....

    I think Alcatrazz was GENERIC with YM, but the album with VAI is one of the most unique metal albums EVER, with killer hooks and songs etc.

    M.... N....

    The screaming comes down to Bonnett's vocal style, though; he is considered to be a very loud singer.

  97. K.... L....

    Nice! Excellent vocals!❤🎵

    K.... L....

    Saw Graham with Michael Schenker in 2018.  Dude still kills it.  He sounded great!

  98. S.... F....

    Terrible song played well
