Surprised at the number of people that didn't know Steve could sing. He was doing lead vocals on Flex-Able back in 1983. On Sex & Religion, 1993, he sang lead vocal on Rescue Me or Bury Me, and has regularly sung ever since.
I think he fits the category of "musicians with questionable voices and songwriting who are able to perform their vocal music thanks to being much better at something else". Bit of a long genre, though.
I was so surprised to hear his singing voice. I was very impressed when I bought this on DVD. Not only does he have the ability to "wow" and inspire people with his fluidity and compositions, his voice is a plus. Steve Vai is the definition of "Shock n' All!"
And though the sun goes down The fever you adore is burning in your breast Helpless in the fall from paradise into your bed For here it is sown, in time we forget what is man Don't let your body cry This game of love is war And I'm already dead You say- Hold me down and wash away This hunger from my flesh And make me reborn in sweet innocence Come on and make me live It's voodoo that you possess (Your heaven is danger) Deny your dark side, I know All about your secret life Oh Eve And so the moon is high I see that love is blind To the fire in your eyes As our garden fiercely burns We have no place to hide Naked and cold running from the wind Now wrapped in skin It's voodoo that you possess (Your heaven is danger) Deny your dark side, I know All about your secret life It's voodoo that you possess (Your heaven is danger) Behind those lucid eyes The shadow of the serpent lies Oh Eve All about Eve And though the sun goes down The mortals never know
Eu já conhecia Steve Vai como grande solista de guitarra, mas como cantor e violonista ele me surpreendeu!!!!!! Não sabia dessa faceta do maior guitarrista do mundo!!!! SHOW!!!!
I didn't see the lyrics here, so here they are: "All About Eve" And though the sun goes down The fever you adore is burning in your breast Helpless in the fall from paradise into your bed For here it is sown, in time we forget what is man Don't let your body cry This game of love is war And I'm already dead You say- Hold me down and wash away This hunger from my flesh And make me reborn in sweet innocence Come on and make me live It's voodoo that you possess (Your heaven is danger) Deny your dark side, I know All about your secret life Oh Eve And so the moon is high I see that love is blind To the fire in your eyes As our garden fiercely burns We have no place to hide Naked and cold running from the wind Now wrapped in skin It's voodoo that you possess (Your heaven is danger) Deny your dark side, I know All about your secret life It's voodoo that you possess (Your heaven is danger) Behind those lucid eyes The shadow of the serpent lies Oh Eve All about Eve And though the sun goes down The mortals never know
The heaven they thought they would have after being deceived and eating the forbidden fruit. As much as the devil tempted and deceived them they would be as knowledgeable as God, they fell from paradise. That heaven is danger, the current world we live in due to the Fall from Paradise.
Were the first 22 seconds (or so) a throwback to "Damn Good" with DLR? I love that song on acoustic so much, and I can remember playing that harmonic riff.
I used to think that Joe Satriani was the GOD .....This music from Steve Vai questions my musical beliefs.....He can actually sing very good!!! Great musicians especially the violin Lady ;-) Is Steve Vai the re-incarnation of Nikola Paganini?!?!?!
P-rayer & the Cube of Space This is "Right, Up Front" or True, +, Positive... When you Cross (+) yourself you put 3 fingers together. These three fingers (.: three Points) form a Triangle (∆, "Tri" means three, see also the Delta: a Greek letter, a Flat Surface or 2D Geometric Plane, Fire or Air Element, or even the company Delta Air Plane, Airlines), or Arrow Pointing to directions. You then move your Right hand in this Rite, or Ritual ("Writing") in Four directions: Up (touching the head or forehead, Mind's eye), Down (touching the breast, heart), Right (touching the right shoulder), Left (touching the left shoulder). These Four Directions are Four Points. If you connect the Four Points you get a Square (or a Pyramid). Additionally (+), we are moving Deosil, Dexter or Sunwise, Right and Up, First. Now Know this re-Present-s coming into Consciousness, our body taking ON the motions Reflecting the Forms, Shapes or Symbols corresponding to Natural processes. We "Rise and Shine", become Conscious (B-Right) with the Sunrise 🌅 when we "Get Up" Vertically, Positive (+), Active (Yang) from a Supine, Horizontal, Negative (-), Passive (Yin) position. "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise" - John Clarke, in “Parœmiologia Anglo-Latina” or 'Proverbs English, and Latin' 1639. 4X3=12. 12 Lines make a Cube or three dimensional Space, like a room with 4 walls, floor and ceiling. The Individual, Observer, or Point of View, soul (sol, solar p-ray-ing on Sun-day) stands (vertical, erect) in the room. Eve corresponds to Evening, Yin, Subconscious, Passive and Adam (David) corresponds to Day, Sun, Yang, Consciousness or the Active (Principle, Prince, etc). So.. we may say in the beginning Nothing("God") created Yin and Yang, Up/Down, Right/Left, Forward/Back placing the Individual Consciousness at the Center of the room, or 3D (3 dimensional Space). The Cube is composed of 12 lines. This is why the Son, Sun of God or Consciousness is at the Center of 12 Apostles. Furthermore (>), the number Twelve is significant because there are 12 Months, 12 Hours (Time), 12 Colors (3 primary, 3 secondary, 6 tertiary), 12 Inches to 1 Foot (Ruler), 12 Musical Notes (Space)... Down (-), Fall, Eve, Evening, Dark, Hell, Subconscious exist because of Up (+), Rise, Dave(Adam), Day, Heaven, Consciousness. You can't have an Up without a Down. You can't have a Forward without a Back. You can't have a Right without a Left (Wrong). You can't have Time/Space and Individual Point of View, Consciousness without 3D Space!!! Once we have asserted our Individuality, Consciousness, Point of View, Self ("I am"), we put our hands together with the Left hand Reflecting the Right, symbolizing the Union of Opposites (Balance) Yin/Yang, Shakti/Shiva, etc and the Transcendence of them (thought, Duality), the Mind (two Hemispheres of the Mind, Female, Male) or 2=0 Mysticism, Only Silence (inner silence) can Express. -Ian Axir, 66° (32°, 64°), Supreme Grand Master, Supreme Magus, 0IS (Order of the Invisible Sun), Clandestine Lodge
Mr. Vai's voice sounds a little bit like Steven Tyler's voice at times (like on the chorus). I think Mr.Vai's voice is richer and fuller, though, as it is lower.
i cant say he is one of the best but he is defintley alive in a super ultra world lol and hendrix was the greatest of his time but he is not one of the greatest of all time but respect respect
I did not know it was him singing on this song!!!!!! OH MY GOSH!! It's like his guitar is just part of himself and the purest way to express exactly what he is inside.
Great singer as well ! Especially this tune (and might be the elder shall agree with) reminds me a little the Emerson Lake and Palmer songs ... Thanks God we still have great musicians sharing their art with us ! Awesome Steve !!!
Anyone else notice the little riff from 0:17 to 0:21 is from the song Damn Good back when he was with David Lee Roth? Classic Vai back then. Gotta love the 80's music :)
Well, I mean he can most def sing what he plays, so makes sense he could sing. I think there is a little auto tune on it tho, or reverb. He's a very very talented man
how he still comes back to the classics, at the start he does harmonics that was a brilliant song by David Lee Roth called Dame Good, where Steve plays guitar in his band at the time, how he never forgets
Vai is such a great composer. I really wish he didnt "shred" so much. In my opinion, so much of it really gets in the way of his genius, cuz it gets rather repetitive after a while.
The songs where Steve sings are some of my favourite, the Sex and Religion album with Devin Townsend is excellent, vocals just seem to break up the songs nicely so you appreciate the guitar work more. In my opinion this is probably the best track from Wild Things, great dynamics.
Not at all. It's very fun tune, and perfectly reasonable for a beginner/intermediate guitarist to learn. I highly recommend getting that song under your fingers.
I have listened to and studied many guitarists, I play myself, Stevie is probably the best of all. He can sing, even though his voice is not the best, otherwise everything about him is perfect. He can play and does so with feeling, he writes interesting, intelligent music, he can perform, is awesome to watch, dressed with taste and looks like a god. I wish him all the best and much more music to come!
Cimate of this song resembles me Jethro Tull and IMHO the sound of Steve is slightly similar to that of Ray Wilson from Genesis. Nevertheles, even if I am mistaken, song is beautifull.
@DroGodina That could be a slide guitar that you put on your knees, you produce a whining sound with a bottleneck on one of your lefthand fingers, you pick with your right hand. Unfortunately you see this instrument just for one second.
oh wow I just checked the song out. It has the exact same chords, and it also has the same harmonics, wow. I'm gonna learn it, beautiful. Is it hard to play though?
Great song!! Vai is a musical genius!! Ooops,like we didnt already know that. What a violinist,what a band!! Check that run she does just before the slow section!!
I have to correct you man, Steve Vai must have a whole new line for himself, he's far beyond any guitar player this days... because he's not just a guitar player, he's a whole musician and showman.... I don't understand those who still say Hendrix is the best guitar player in history... I mean, after THIS song, there's nothing!!
He doesn't shred that often. You need to understand that there's different elements of music that can be used to bring upon different human feelings, and they are interpreted through chords, arpeggios, legato, sweeps, speed, shredding etc. Steve already said many times, that he creates a story with everything he plays, and does it with feeling, with how he feels, whether it's a chord, to a high-speed shred piece. Steve has his own original style, and with it creates beautiful music. Dont judge
@brando18guitarplyr well lets then ummm....if there are better guitar players they would become popular already but not there are not and it is provened as a fact of his ranking the people that people voted were professional judges themself oh by the way if there are people that are so fkin great then go talk to the legendary gods Michael Angelo Batio. Eddie Vanhalen, Brendon Small, Bucket Head, Steve Vai and if u think anyone can shred those bastrds then make a video ursselfwithsuchgreattalent
oh steve...... SO beautiful... SO beautiful. Your music touches every atom in my body, and reaches into my soul, to the point it becomes spiritual. beautiful music Mr. Vai makes, so wonderful, it's like a fantasy, like a dream. I appreciate his music so much, I wish him the best and hopefully i get to meet him and have a good chat with him.
@sergeeo yep, I think that he is more than a guitarist. He is a true musician and when you are a musicion and not an instrumentalist you have everything it takes but a voice. Pitch, timing etc. Singing is not THAT difficult. I for example do not like my voice and I do not always hit notes precisely enough to be a true singer but I can still sing enough for the songs I write.
@blackstars26 i find elixers 80/20 bronze strings are the best, there coated so they last longer and there really bright, i switched from phospher bronze to 80/20 and never went back, i love the bright tone. but the only down side is that elixers are expensive lol, but well worth it! hope this helps :)
Steve vai are one of the best guitarist in the world, not only on the guitar but in the Music itself.. I agree that someone in the world are better then Steve, But Steve make much better music!! It's so fucking awesome to listen to sweeping and shredding in 5 minutes-.-..
@edthehead83 sure he practiced his ass off but that is definetly gods gift, some people cant even come up with simple rythems, its harder to play music for some people than others an this guy is just a natural, gods gift...
@BDPGT first thing : No i will not shut up, 2 : that doesn't make sense because i can name 10 better shredders ATM. and there are literally thousands of better guitarists that aren't even famous.
@JohnRottenCHC I mean, people use fans to keep cool. At least where I come from... And this is a beautiful song. Maybe chords that no other guitarists use bother you. Open your ears man.
@edthehead83 true man, we each have our own opinion, an thats great! its makes us different! i respect ur opinion too, cause i bet he did practice his ass off lol, do u play guitar?
@blackstars26 It is both, get D'Adario lights for the acoustic and tell them you want a rich bright tone from them, or you can just say you want the to bright like steve's
@rockerMan0987 yea its the where the wild things are dvd i believe... its on vai . com if you wanna buy it. i think you can get all his dvds from there
Surprised at the number of people that didn't know Steve could sing. He was doing lead vocals on Flex-Able back in 1983. On Sex & Religion, 1993, he sang lead vocal on Rescue Me or Bury Me, and has regularly sung ever since.
I didn't know he could sing as well; most of these guitar genius's aren't great singers. This guys got it all.
I think he fits the category of "musicians with questionable voices and songwriting who are able to perform their vocal music thanks to being much better at something else". Bit of a long genre, though.
You're underestimating Gary Moore.
You dont know Richie Kotzen
Well put
i love his voice, singing or speaking
really cool song and steve has a naturally good tone, in his voice.
He's a beast at the guitar, but damn Steve can sing.
One does not simply play guitar in Frank Zappa's band without the ability to sing.
🤣🤣🤣
2:05 SUPER CONVINCING BACKING VOCALS
Yeah that always bugged me too 😂
Yeah its very obviously the original backing vocals from the original track lol
@@kendallwilson5688 Why even bother pretending to sing then? Ridiculous circus
I was so surprised to hear his singing voice. I was very impressed when I bought this on DVD. Not only does he have the ability to "wow" and inspire people with his fluidity and compositions, his voice is a plus. Steve Vai is the definition of "Shock n' All!"
And though the sun goes down
The fever you adore is burning in your breast
Helpless in the fall from paradise into your bed
For here it is sown, in time we forget what is man
Don't let your body cry
This game of love is war
And I'm already dead
You say- Hold me down and wash away
This hunger from my flesh
And make me reborn in sweet innocence
Come on and make me live
It's voodoo that you possess
(Your heaven is danger)
Deny your dark side, I know
All about your secret life
Oh Eve
And so the moon is high
I see that love is blind
To the fire in your eyes
As our garden fiercely burns
We have no place to hide
Naked and cold running from the wind
Now wrapped in skin
It's voodoo that you possess
(Your heaven is danger)
Deny your dark side, I know
All about your secret life
It's voodoo that you possess
(Your heaven is danger)
Behind those lucid eyes
The shadow of the serpent lies
Oh Eve
All about Eve
And though the sun goes down
The mortals never know
Wow, I didn't know he could sing lol.
I'm not a big Steve's fan. But... woah! How I love this song! He's not only a great player, but a great, GREAT singer! I really like his voice.
This song is absolutely stunning ; the bass melody during the choruses gives a tremendous groove to the ensemble.
Eu já conhecia Steve Vai como grande solista de guitarra, mas como cantor e violonista ele me surpreendeu!!!!!! Não sabia dessa faceta do maior guitarrista do mundo!!!! SHOW!!!!
I wish I had hair that perfect
thank you Steve vai for this
Changing the slide guitar part to violin with Ann Marie Calhoun really transforms this tune up a level
So... Miranda Cosgrove can play the violin.
Ann Marie Calhoun.
She's the wife of Mike Einziger, guitar player in Incubus.
Amo profundamente esta cancion... me ah acompañado en muchas situaciones en mi vida en las que al final del dia... me acompañá... gracias maestro!
I didn't see the lyrics here, so here they are:
"All About Eve"
And though the sun goes down
The fever you adore is burning in your breast
Helpless in the fall from paradise into your bed
For here it is sown, in time we forget what is man
Don't let your body cry
This game of love is war
And I'm already dead
You say- Hold me down and wash away
This hunger from my flesh
And make me reborn in sweet innocence
Come on and make me live
It's voodoo that you possess
(Your heaven is danger)
Deny your dark side, I know
All about your secret life
Oh Eve
And so the moon is high
I see that love is blind
To the fire in your eyes
As our garden fiercely burns
We have no place to hide
Naked and cold running from the wind
Now wrapped in skin
It's voodoo that you possess
(Your heaven is danger)
Deny your dark side, I know
All about your secret life
It's voodoo that you possess
(Your heaven is danger)
Behind those lucid eyes
The shadow of the serpent lies
Oh Eve
All about Eve
And though the sun goes down
The mortals never know
Marshall Farris thank you marshall for the lyric!
Marshall Farris What do you think "Your heaven is danger" means?
mamonsin it means love is pain
The heaven they thought they would have after being deceived and eating the forbidden fruit. As much as the devil tempted and deceived them they would be as knowledgeable as God, they fell from paradise. That heaven is danger, the current world we live in due to the Fall from Paradise.
I was searching for the blessed guy who posted the lyrics here. Thanks
Vou voltar a tocar baixo por causa dessa música...
Were the first 22 seconds (or so) a throwback to "Damn Good" with DLR? I love that song on acoustic so much, and I can remember playing that harmonic riff.
Yep..... good times....damn good times.
I used to think that Joe Satriani was the GOD .....This music from Steve Vai questions my musical beliefs.....He can actually sing very good!!!
Great musicians especially the violin Lady ;-)

Those who liked hearing vai sing, try listening to 'I'm your secrets' as well
i cant say he is one of the best but he is defintley alive in a super ultra world lol and hendrix was the greatest of his time but he is not one of the greatest of all time but respect respect
That's the best I've heard him sing. Sounds like he's putting a lot of work into it. Singing is way more difficult than it looks.
I just love this song.. One of the best songs from the master Jedi Steve. Too bad it's not so famous between Stevie's set list.
I did not know it was him singing on this song!!!!!! OH MY GOSH!! It's like his guitar is just part of himself and the purest way to express exactly what he is inside.
Great singer as well ! Especially this tune (and might be the elder shall agree with) reminds me a little the Emerson Lake and Palmer songs ... Thanks God we still have great musicians sharing their art with us ! Awesome Steve !!!
Increíble que alguien toque así la guitarra y tras de eso, cante bien...
hanging out with devin townsend has it's perks for your voice
That's a damn good little intro 😜🤘
Anyone else notice the little riff from 0:17 to 0:21 is from the song Damn Good back when he was with David Lee Roth?
Classic Vai back then. Gotta love the 80's music :)
WTF ?!?!?!? STEVE VAI CAN SING ?! HE IS SO FUCKING COOL
Well, I mean he can most def sing what he plays, so makes sense he could sing. I think there is a little auto tune on it tho, or reverb. He's a very very talented man
That little ode to his david lee roth era at 0:17 was awesome to hear 👏
how he still comes back to the classics, at the start he does harmonics that was a brilliant song by David Lee Roth called Dame Good, where Steve plays guitar in his band at the time, how he never forgets
It's like a mixture of Rescue Me or Bury Me and Damn Good!
Damn good is a damn good song. I wish he would play it more..
Thank you!!! Love that song so much, and couldn't not remember the name. Recognized it immediately though
3:44 I've literally been moved to tears

Not at all. It's very fun tune, and perfectly reasonable for a beginner/intermediate guitarist to learn. I highly recommend getting that song under your fingers.
Me acabo de enterar que era el mismísimo Steve el que cantaba este tema 🤯🤯🤯

He can play and does so with feeling, he writes interesting, intelligent music, he can perform, is awesome to watch, dressed with taste and looks like a god.

Mystical and amazing! I am very Blessed to have heard and witnessed this...Steve you R Awesome....Deny your dark side! All About Eve!
Vai sings better than Mustaine...
Cimate of this song resembles me Jethro Tull and IMHO the sound of Steve is slightly similar to that of Ray Wilson from Genesis. Nevertheles, even if I am mistaken, song is beautifull.
Virtouso and lyrics are so profound
@DroGodina That could be a slide guitar that you put on your knees, you produce a whining sound with a bottleneck on one of your lefthand fingers, you pick with your right hand. Unfortunately you see this instrument just for one second.
oh wow I just checked the song out. It has the exact same chords, and it also has the same harmonics, wow. I'm gonna learn it, beautiful. Is it hard to play though?
That girl's violin just goes right through me
Tender Surrender, brother, for the love of the god(try a version with orchestra - it is great!), Whispering A Prayer... have fun :)
if the angels could play the violin they would play like her
Great song!! Vai is a musical genius!! Ooops,like we didnt already know that. What a violinist,what a band!! Check that run she does just before the slow section!!
I have to correct you man, Steve Vai must have a whole new line for himself, he's far beyond any guitar player this days... because he's not just a guitar player, he's a whole musician and showman....
I don't understand those who still say Hendrix is the best guitar player in history... I mean, after THIS song, there's nothing!!
What to say about❤EVE,I LOVE YOU❤❤❤❤STEVE, THE BEST,ITALIA FOREVER❤
quite demanding piece to sing and obviously he,s done pretty well!!!
3:44
This is video recoding the old good times that go to play the guitar electric done 14 years back. Im from Argentina and sorry me but my inglish bad
lol... so a lot of people here don't have his fire garden cassette then haha
He doesn't shred that often. You need to understand that there's different elements of music that can be used to bring upon different human feelings, and they are interpreted through chords, arpeggios, legato, sweeps, speed, shredding etc. Steve already said many times, that he creates a story with everything he plays, and does it with feeling, with how he feels, whether it's a chord, to a high-speed shred piece. Steve has his own original style, and with it creates beautiful music. Dont judge
Steve Vai beutifull músic amazing 🙂🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶👏👏🇧🇷
@brando18guitarplyr well lets then ummm....if there are better guitar players they would become popular already but not there are not and it is provened as a fact of his ranking the people that people voted were professional judges themself oh by the way if there are people that are so fkin great then go talk to the legendary gods Michael Angelo Batio. Eddie Vanhalen, Brendon Small, Bucket Head, Steve Vai and if u think anyone can shred those bastrds then make a video ursselfwithsuchgreattalent
oh steve...... SO beautiful... SO beautiful. Your music touches every atom in my body, and reaches into my soul, to the point it becomes spiritual. beautiful music Mr. Vai makes, so wonderful, it's like a fantasy, like a dream. I appreciate his music so much, I wish him the best and hopefully i get to meet him and have a good chat with him.
also on "i know youre here", he got an awesome voice.
@sergeeo
yep, I think that he is more than a guitarist. He is a true musician and when you are a musicion and not an instrumentalist you have everything it takes but a voice.

@blackstars26 i find elixers 80/20 bronze strings are the best, there coated so they last longer and there really bright, i switched from phospher bronze to 80/20 and never went back, i love the bright tone. but the only down side is that elixers are expensive lol, but well worth it! hope this helps :)
Steve vai are one of the best guitarist in the world, not only on the guitar but in the Music itself.. I agree that someone in the world are better then Steve, But Steve make much better music!! It's so fucking awesome to listen to sweeping and shredding in 5 minutes-.-..
i don't get why he doesn't sing more often, his voice is actually incredible! my favourite kind of voice, rough and godly
@edthehead83 sure he practiced his ass off but that is definetly gods gift, some people cant even come up with simple rythems, its harder to play music for some people than others an this guy is just a natural, gods gift...
@BDPGT first thing : No i will not shut up, 2 : that doesn't make sense because i can name 10 better shredders ATM. and there are literally thousands of better guitarists that aren't even famous.
@JohnRottenCHC I mean, people use fans to keep cool. At least where I come from... And this is a beautiful song. Maybe chords that no other guitarists use bother you. Open your ears man.
@edthehead83 true man, we each have our own opinion, an thats great! its makes us different! i respect ur opinion too, cause i bet he did practice his ass off lol, do u play guitar?
He can sing!
@blackstars26 It is both, get D'Adario lights for the acoustic and tell them you want a rich bright tone from them, or you can just say you want the to bright like steve's
@zeppelin25101980 I know, right? As a matter of fact, it sounds like they used the studio track for that chorus part, though I can't understand why.
@rockerMan0987 yea its the where the wild things are dvd i believe... its on vai . com if you wanna buy it. i think you can get all his dvds from there
I knew Steve Vai was a awesome guitar player but I didn't know he was also a great singer!
@thiagosakata DVD quality sucks! Bluray its way way better! but this video here is PERFECT!!
@spadabobbe tks for this magical song!!!!!!!
@JDK0316191 I think since he brought her up that would not make him gay.... just born with good eyes and ears. She's articulate and beautiful.
that acoustic guitar tone is straight-up horrible
@MrBluesrules Frank Zappa & The Mothers Of Invention, Utopia was Todd Rundgren, my friend. Frank never played in Utopia, nor did Ruth.
Maybe Mr Vai could give Zakk Wylde some vocal lessons (cause Zakk can play like a son of a bitch but his "singing" is atrocious).
Hey guys! check my version of this song! ty for your music Steve u r the most creative and expressive artist i know!
i can guess what the violinist and vai were doing back stage. and they were not tuning their musical instruments.
holy f*ck....why doesnt he sing on all of his songs...im not saying it is particularly good...its just different
I didn't know Steve Vai could sing so well. Or sound like that. Either way simply amazing.
@JkSkins97 definitely not the best guitar player, but he is one of the best guitar composers alive.
Una de las perfectas canciones de Steve 😍
Watching this video just completed me. I love you Steve
Great band that tour. Bryan Beller and Dave Weiner in the rhythm section.
@JohnRottenCHC that's to keep his hair out of his face... And you call him pretentious...
Wow..... He can sing? He's an amazing guitar player... But I didn't know he could sing.
Maravilloso, talento y corazón...
Takamine sounds better. He should endorse Takamine for his acoustic guitar...haha...
i never knew he could sing, the only song i heard before by him was just instrument.
Is there anything this guy is not capable of musically.
Jeremy Colson, great crazy drummer...
I'm hearing a kind of autotune¿? Is it possible?
Steve is a legend, they’re all incredible artists. What a drummer!!! Who is it?!
Jeremy Colson.... He's a beast on the drums!!
