89-91 Patton is gold made into voice. A really unique moment of his singing carreer. I wish they were more albums featuring that kind of voice besides The Real Thing album and Mr Bungle's self titled & demos.
Oddly enough, I'd always done my Mike Patton Karaoke voice with a very nasal style and it worked alright but it just wasnt correct...then one day I thought I'd check for a vocals only version of Epic, and holy shit... It turns out he isnt singing through his nose to make that tone. He is doing it in the back of his throat in a way similar to Bradley from Sublime, you just can't hear it with the rest of the music playing. Look up Epic -Vocals isolated And listen to the chorus, specifically, "CAN'T GRAB IT" he is actually singing those notes like a soul singer, like James Brown maybe. Anyway, I just found that the vocal isolation videos found on here changed how I looked at Mike Patton's singing and now I understand what he is doing. Brilliant stuff.
He stopped doing it because he not only knew he was capable of so much more, but he also didn't want to get trapped as that kind of singer. Personally, I'm glad he ditched it.
Patton doesn't even have to try, he's just beast. Faith No More is one of the most influential bands of the last 30+ years. Mixing metal, funk, jazz, hip-hop, lounge, country....etc. Name a band today, they probably listened to FNM. Hall of Fame???
unfortunately they couldn't keep everyone in the band. Starting with Chuck Mosely, people kept on splitting. Damn shame, because it really affected their output, and overall quality from 92-on.
46 and I still rock this haircut and listen to FNM!!! I used to have a low rider truck and while others were listening to bass music I was jamming out to this thinking I was so cool. Come to think about it, I was cool:)
Damn man. I wish I could have experienced the early 90s like you guys. I am only 27 but these guys were introduced to me by my dad along with Alice in Chains, Tool, and Mr. Bungle. More of a death metal guy myself but these are my roots in music and they are the best. Patton is GOAT.
Esta presentación es totalmente épica, freak, y de culto. Esto motivó a que la banda volviera infinitas ocasiones a Chile. Para los que no saben en ese año 1991 Chile esta recién volviendo a la democracia, por lo que esta fue una de las primeras presentaciones de una banda internacional de un rock único, mas aún en un festival de la canción televisado no acostumbrado en ese entonces a bandas rockeras.
Esta version de Patton por asi decirlo, es la mejor de todas, cuando era joven, ese aspecto de weón loco, un puto genio hasta el dia de hoy, no hay proyecto de este wn que no me guste, es una genialidad, estas interpretaciones que hacía ene sos tiempos, me vuela la cabeza, pensar que en ese momento, en el festival, yo tenia 4 años, un pendejito, que iba a saber de musica yo, más grande cuando aprendi de musica, me hcie adicto a Patton, especialmente a FNM, cuando se reunieron en el 2009, yo era el weon mas feliz del mundo, ir a ese concierto me dejo loco, mi mejor concierto en la vida y ninguno sera mejor que ese, pa rematarla al siguiente año vuelven a venir, no me lo perdi, en esa oportunidad logre tirar una bandera, la cual Patton recogio y sacaron la foto oficial, luego cuando vino con Tomahawk, logré la fotaza que tengo en el perfil... Mike Patton, el puto genio de la mñusica!
I know the feeling It is the real thing The essence of the truth The perfect moment That golden moment I know you feel it too I know the feeling It is the real thing You can't refuse the embrace No It's like the pattern below the skin You gotta reach out and pull it all in And you feel like you're too close But you swallow another dose The pinnacle of happiness Filling up your soul You don't think you can take any more You never wanna let go To touch the roots of experience The most basic ingredients To see the unseen glitter of life And feel the dirt, grief, anger and strife Cherish the certainly of now It kills you a bit at a time Cradle the inspiration It will leave you writhing on the floor This is so unreal, what I feel This nourishment, life is bent Into a shape I can hold A twist of fate, all my own Just grit your teeth, make no sound Take a step away and look around Just clench your fist and close your eyes Look deep inside, hypnotize The whisper is but a shout That's what it is all about Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray You will never let it slip away Like the sacred song that someone sings through you, through you Like the flesh so warm that the thorn sticks into, into Like the dream you know one day will come to life Try to hold on just a little longer, stronger, stronger It's the jewel of victory The chasm of misery And once you have bitten the core You will always know the flavor The split second of divinity You drink up the sky All of heaven is in your arms You know the reason why It's right there, all by itself And what you are, there is nothing else You're growing a life within a life The lips of wonder kiss you inside And when it's over the feeling remains It all comes down to this The smoke clears, I see what it is That made me feel this way I know the feeling It is the real thing The essence of the truth The perfect moment That golden moment I know you feel it too I know the feeling It is the real thing You can't refuse the embrace This is so unreal, what I feel Flood, sell your soul, feel the blood Pump through your veins, can't explain The element that's everything Just clench your fist and close your eyes Look deep inside, hypnotize Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray You will never let it slip away Yes, the ecstasy, you can pray You will never let it slip away You will never let it slip away You will never let it slip away Like the echoes of your childhood laughter, ever after Like the first time love urged you to take it's guidance, in silence Like your heartbeat when you realize you're dying, but you're trying Like the way you cry for a happy ending, ending I know I know I know I know
Las pobres viejas de Viña no cachaba que mierda pasaba..... y unos rockers haciendo el aguante entremedio el publico. una belleza, ese dia empezo el amor entre Chile y Faith no More.
Beyond historic song and performance. The song is about a divine or spiritual experience. Mike patton is killing it here, and here is the kicker.. he doesnt even have to try hard to hit these insane notes..
@Magister Ludi 'Hard' is relative. They're not hard notes for Mike, but most male singers would struggle to hit the high notes in this song. The male singers who could sing the high parts with ease wouldn't be able to reach the low notes in the song.
Muy pocos de esa época supieron valorar el tremendo espectáculo que se mandaron... Excelente calidad vocal del Patton y la banda para que decir... Ojala se repitiera algo así...una de las mejores cosas que ha pasado en viña y nunca la televisión chilena de mierda le ha puesto en valor....
One of the Best Bands in Rock History. Mike's Vocal abilities here are UNREAL. The Audio does it no justice but, for those of us that have experienced FNM Live? We know what time it is. Saw them in early 1992 in Los Angeles (among many other times) at the Hollywood Palladium in Support of their Angel Dust Record Release, one of the most incredible live performances I have ever seen. Blew us all away.
At 47 years old, I finally got to see Mike Patton live last week...Amazing how he's still on top of his game...The greatest and most versatile vocalists of all time
Had a lazy beer with Jim at my local before a gig. He wandered in that afternoon when we getting fucked up pre gig. Place went ape shit but respectful. What a decent human being. God amongst guitarist.
Still love Faith No More!!! Been a fan since they first came out with Mike as lead vocals. I was a sophomore in High school. Nothing but total love n respect for these guys.
Sometimes I cry just a little bit listening to these guys, I like all the band's but FNM just amazing. On a Bungle period just now, but I'll come back again.
Epic performance no pun intended. Patton simply best front man ever with amazing range. Faith true pioneers!! This is so unreal what I feel. Yes the ecstasy u can pray u will never let it slip away u will never let it slip away!!
God what a babe he was when young; so beautiful in appearance and his vocals are so fucking amazing- his range was used more later on but I still like this nasal voice too. The bad boy crazy showman I so love! Wish I could be like that! Not give a shit and just be your crazy self. I really appreciate his versatile vocals over his long amazing career
Romans Legion I don’t know, did you hear Patman’s “other” 90’s band? They were probably the best band that ever went near the mainstream, by objective measure of musical ability combined with unique creativity.
jóvenes, con full energía, guapos, reales para esa época y sobre todo pros!!!! una maravilla... hasta ahora no decepciona FNM así no tenga ninguna expectativa
Bill é como se fosse o Lars: não é a habilidade de tocar o instrumento que chama a atenção (embora toque bem), é a visão do cara, as letras, as composições, os arranjos e as produções do FNM. Ele é a espinha da banda, tanto que ele já tinha composto muita coisa no Sol Invictus no próprio estúdio, mostrou p Mike Patton e aí se empolgaram de vez...banda absolutamente FODA! Desde quando ouvi Introduce Yourself em 1988, mesmo muito novo, rachou minha mente tanto descontrole criativo! São gênios esses caras! Incluindo o grande Chuck e o SENSACIONAL Jim Martin!
Patton is a fecking legend, while all my mate were listening to Nirvana, Soundgarden, RHCP, I was and still am a FNM kinda guy (by the way I'm not dissing those bands, just Patton and Co rock my boat)
I dont like the chillis because of anthony. Dude has the most boring and limited vocal range in the game. Their sound is so vanilla and just cheesy. Patton is next fucking level, creative, talented and just badass as fuck.
Samuel they are not alike tho, why compare, and hes not bitter, his ass knows he aint a proficient singer who doesnt know what being in tune means, but he still made a huge career stop hating
@@recipoldinasty interviews, music articles, wikipedia (I know, anyone can write on wiki) off the top of my head, look into Mr. Bungle and their relationship to rhcp, it's well documented. Kiedis feels like Patton stole his style and is butthurt Patton did it better. Bungle even played a show dressed as rhcp in response to being dropped off an AUS festival tour at Kiedis urging.
