Still stands as one of the best live vocal performances of all time. Incredible. Especially considering he'd already been singing an hour before belting this out like it was nothing

@benitokamelo252 Год назад

And this wasn't last time he belts the sh*t out as this performance. There's some video/audio audicence recordings from '84-'87 where he kicks ass, my favourites (if someone wanna check them) are Detroit '84, Pittsburgh '85, Michigan '86 and Houston '86. Rock on!

@rbrebrook Год назад

@@benitokamelo252 that Pittsburgh show was insane. There's camcorder footage where Tate blows out the camcorder's mic with his E5 on Queen of Reich! He was otherworldly live ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4G79hp7AnWc.html

Its a touched up with the studio version...sorry to bust your bubble but go listen to studio version and this side by side. I love Queensryche...im a fan but its 99% the studio cut.

@chriswiedeman2956 Год назад

This band was absolutely amazing with Geoff Tate on vocals and Chris DeGarmo on lead guitar.

@kwantoon Год назад

They were operating on a different level entirely. The original line up was incredible as they were all great musicians, but Tate and DeGarmo set them worlds apart from 95% of the other of that genre during that time. I was pretty young when I first heard them and I remember how it moved me, it was almost as though it changed my entire perception of what music could be. I will never get tired of this stuff, for me it's absolutely timeless

@chriswiedeman2956 Год назад

@@kwantoon Amen to that! Their initial EP release blew my mind when I was in high school and I was instantly hooked. I actually knew Mike Stone in the mid 80's, who replaced DeGarmo on guitar eventually. But, the band was never the same. At least it's fun to tell friends that the guitarist of Queensryche installed a pickup in my guitar once : )

@trevormachado Год назад

Im so happy you reacted to this song! this is only the tip of the iceberg with Geoff. I HIGHLY recommend "Roads to Madness" (studio version) off the album "the Warning" by Queensrÿche, it is an INSANE performance and a masterpiece of a song.

@trevormachado Год назад

@@down-the-rabbit-hole I agree completely. The album in general is a masterpiece. My favorite is either Roads to Madness or No sanctuary, but honestly I love every single song on the Warning. Not to mention the next few albums. Roads to Madness is probably my favorite if not one of my favorite Tate performances

@NS1. Год назад

That second E5 (there are three in the song) he hits at 7:12, is like a piece of magic. Probably never to be replicated again.

@mjc1389 Год назад

He was in his high belt for a majority of the song - impressive. Cleanly hit 3 E5’s during the song and 2 of the 3 were sustained - impressive. The ability to switch quickly from his chest to his head/mixed voice without any loss of tone quality - impressive. Quite the performance and if you were lucky enough to see them live at some point you know they were the real deal.

@1977mathlete Год назад

I had the opportunity to see them on MTv Unplugged and he was the real deal. I’ve also seen relatively recent videos of him live with a group called Sweet Oblivion; and even at age 63 he can still belt out those notes like he’s ordering takeout.

To listen to thr ryche in its purest form listen to the MTV unplugged session. Pick a tune from that session you can't go wrong. "Killing words",I WILL Remember, Scarborough Fair Etc.

@j800r_aswell Год назад

Geoff was too good in his younger days. So much so that people these days hold him to an impossible standard. His younger self. The guy was around 24/25 when this was shot. He's 64 this year. He's definitely still got it and is a vocal force to be reckoned with, but he's also not 24 anymore. Male voices deepen/get richer as we age. Back then he was delivering a studio perfect vocal performance. These days his performances of those songs are far from studio perfect, but they're damn close enough on a good day.

@styrenebuilds6851 Год назад

His attitude killed him , not his aging voice .

@stromghouls Год назад

Glad you got to discover this, it's one of my all-time favourite performances, ever. Geoff Tate at his ultimate vocal peak powers. Would you consider reacting to Gary Moore and his tracks 'Still Got The Blues For You' (Live!) and/or his live performance of 'Empty Rooms - Live in Stockholm 1987.' I feel you'd really love these also.

Same here. I seen them opening for Metallica and my neighbor played them but everytime I went to visit he shut it off like a hidden secret he kept from me. I was blown away when I seen them. As a huge Metallica fan I thought Queensryche blew them out the water. Just my opinion though..

Queen of the Ryche/Lady wore black/ The whisper/Walk in the Shadows/The needle lies/Breaking the silence. I could go on and on

@alexthorpe6583 Год назад

This is the video that drives all the vocal coach reactors nuts. The baritone that sings most of the song in the 5th octave. Other Queensryche songs? I’m not such which ones have good videos, but I can suggest Empire, The Real World, I Don’t Believe In Love, Anybody Listening?, Spreading The Disease, I Will Remember, No Sanctuary.

@tonstruck5873 9 месяцев назад

Geoff has a legendary voice having been joined by opera singers and being opera trained himself, he is unmatched in range especially in the metal genre. As prominent as they were, queesryche was very underrated. Definitely my all time favorite metal band! love everything they've ever done! great reaction!

In the 80s Queensryche were untouchable. My very first introduction to them was a song called "Queen of the Reich" on MTV (it came out before this one by a few years) which is one of their songs that's straight up 100 percent Power Metal and my vote for THE most 80s metal music video of all time. I instantly fell in love with them then and that love for them has not diminished one bit in 40 years.

@purplekat5864 Год назад

Everything you said about Queensryche, their music, the tightness of the band and each member, Geoff's VOCALS, and your response to them, is EXACTLY the way I've been feeling about them for the last 3+ decades!! I still smile every time I hear this song. Ear to ear. You are having a visceral response to their particular brand of musical alchemy! I love songs that make me FEEL something -- and THEIR songs do! Don't stop now! Another good one (and there are so many) is "The Killing Words" from MTV's Unplugged 1992. Also, for another high energy one, "Speak" is good! It's from the concept album, "Operation: Mindcrime" which is one long story. So you won't get the full meaning of the lyrics unless you listen to the whole album. Still, it's a great song with vocals in both the high and low ranges. I loved your excitement about this song! And yes, they weren't about showing off or grandstanding. They were about making good songs! P.S. Yes, they were young in this one. Geoff was about 25, and the others were about 20! "Finger-licking good". Oh YEAH!
