ABOUT…
I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

I use to sing this to my little ones before bed, it was "our song". Geoff Tate has an amazing voice, Operation MINDCRIME album is the best from beginning to end, it's like an opera. Thank you for this reaction.😍😍😍😍😍💜💜💜
I agree Mindcrime part 1 is piece of art it should be experienced
Hi, please could you react to Rosalia?
She is a very famous singer from Spain, she joins the trap, reggaeton and flamenco in the same song.
I totally agree about Operation MINDCRIME.
Back when it first came out I wasn't much of a Queensryche fan as they were too...I don't know, 'cheesy' for my thrash and hardcore punk loving self. Operation MINDCRIME was one of those albums that transcended those narrow tastes of mine with how excellent it was. It definitely should be experienced in it's entirety the first time.
@@iantown44 ✌👍
@@iDEATH 👍✌
Possibly THE most beautiful rock ballad ever written. The entire Empire record was just amazing.
I'd like ur comment twice if I could
What abot the cover version of Sounds Of Silence performed by Disturbed?? I guess it's the same level.
My Empire CD is going in my coffin :)
True
Empire is one of the most underrated albums period. Top 5 most underrated albums in rock history.
Queensryche might be one of the most underrated bands ever, right? Brings a tear drop to my eye
I see what you did there!
Top 3 underrated imo would be Queensryche, Savatage, and Fates Warning.
Queensryche, Tesla and Skid Row were lost in the supposed "hair metal" purge of 1991-2. Such a shame because they never should have been labeled as such.
They were good live too
@@LotsaFails three of my favorite bands from the era. I saw Queensryche live two summers ago. Even without Geoff Tate, they still rock.
Metal vocalists never get any credit, and yet are perhaps the best out there.
There were two lp's from Queensryche out befor silent lucidity hit the air waves. I wasn't happy that it took this slowed version of their enormous talent to be considered..... worthy ? I guess. One of My fav's. Seen them 4 times
@@willisgreen121 I went to college in Seattle in the late 80's and early 90's, yup. Good group.
Thank you Mr.Monk. I'm still not clear what happened to them. Why the break up?
It appears it's ego's ? I don't know? You can check my (profile on fb) background and who and where I've been musically. I mean nothing compared to super stars like this but never the less plagued with some of the same problems . I did shows for months and there were some members of the band ya couldn't even approach and never said 2 words to. I'm sure I was a grouchy ass all the same . Then your will (I think Bad co. Said it best ) should ;
' Live for the music '.....
@@willisgreen121 Who cares about the break up, the previous 6 albums before they broke up were either mediocre or absolute horseshit, and at that point Geoff couldn't even sing well anymore. I personally love the new direction they're taking the band with Todd, The Verdict rocks.
Spartan . I respect the fact we don't have the same views. If we all thought the same about music therewould be only one band .... I also didn't think much of Metallica before the Black lp. Don't care much for the Beatles, absolutely hate Nirvana. Love or hate or indifferent about me is an individual judgement call. I just happen to think , I would have missed out if not ever hearing the Operation Mindcrime lp. Genius. But it took all of them to write it . I haven't heard the news on present day Queensryche. But like , when I stumbled on to them when I was a kid, it was word of mouth . I some what take your word for it . Just knowing you have an opinion is enough for me . Thank you kind sir . And peace my brother....
Geoff Tate is a vocal god. Eyes of a Stranger is my favorite song of his.
And I don't believe in love, those are my 2 anthems haha
Hell Yeah ❤
I can't believe this album will be 30 years old next year.
Thanks for making me feel old 👍
I went to this concert..... when I was not old enough to drive.
@@katehaynes5735 lucky you 👍👍
1990 - awesome song!
2019 - still awesome!
3019 it will still be amazing
Miss the days of real music
Geoff Tate is an amazing singer.
One of the best songs ever!
Great react!
The days of real music are NOW.
There is plenty of real music now, you just have to look for it.
@Move_I_Got_This Sabaton, Nightwish, Beast in Black...
@@samanthar1214 Band maid.
Ripoff then and ripoff now.
Geoff sang the national anthem at a Seattle Seahawks game and literally 60 thousand people were watching with their jaws hanging open . The most incredible performance of the anthem I've ever seen in my life .
I was at that game and your right it was an incredible preformance
And you post no link! Now I have to work to find it.
ruclips.net/video/PPJW9O0_w3E/видео.html
I was there too, I couldn't believe my eyes!
The song was written by Chris DeGarmo (guitarist) for his child who had a nightmare. Chris and Geoff were an incredible song writing duo.
Shamalama Dingdong yes! Chris is probably one of the most underrated guitarists out there. Killer backup singer too.
@@cOpEnBaCoN indeed! He was my favorite musician back in the day
Shamalama Dingdong Damn straight. I miss DeGarmo. He had some time on the new Alice In Chains and if you listen close you can hear it. The man is a genius.
James Smallwood did he? I was totally unaware. Haven’t heard any of the new AIC.
Dirty Dan he did. Apparently him and Cantrell are friends as he contributed on the new AiC which is missing Layne(obvious reasons) but is still quite good but is also all over Cantrell’s solo projects.
It’s such a shame that Geoff Tate had a falling out with the other members of Queensryche. They were a great band.
it' so sad that that happened to a great band,make me feel ..melancholy.
Honestly, it was probably for the best. Their last two albums with Todd La Torre are by far the best things they've done since Empire IMO.
leerobbo92 American soldier 2009 was a great album
@@leerobbo92 Todd is an awesome & versatile musician, but it just ain't Queensryche w/o Tate IMO. He's got THAT sound..
@@patska78 Yeah, I know what you mean. Mindcrime is untouchable, and Tate's a huge part of that.
You need to listen to "Eyes of a Stranger" by Queensryche . He hits some powerful notes
or "The needle lies".....
Ok I'll be honest i watch these videos because I'm in love with Rebecca.
I am in love with Rebecca, (aka RVA), & I'm a straight chick! Rebecca is so adorable & has a cool sense of humor. Plus, you always know that you're going to get a quality reaction from her. She is so Beautiful- Inside & Out, Rebecca is a very Special & Inspiring Lady!
I'm understanding why. ;-)
So glad to hear someone else confess that. She also picks the best music to do this with. ....and she is truly beautiful!
Me too.
SMASH
Oh yessssss Rebecca darling! One of my all time favourite songs!!! Gets me every time!!! Great choice! Geoffs voice is like no other... Soothes the soul... ❤️
Well said...same here... I always put Queensryche above everyone else because of Geoff's voice
Hi im doing some yt cover would love to know u thoughts ty
Touches the soul....
Please review Queensryche’s song, “Anybody Listening.”
Can you react to Queensryche's- Suite Sister Mary( off the Operation Mindcrime album)
the Livecrime version is out of this world!
Pamela Moore is an awesome addition to the song. Her and Geoff honed in their styles from none other, David Kyle. Both have great chemistry in this song and had literally given me shivers the first time I heard it. So much that I had to rewind the tape at least 15 to 20 times. Not only for the storyline, but the melody is so haunting that you can't just listen to it once and then off to the next song. It had me that hooked. Good song choice.
Rebecca, if you really want to go on a journey with Geoffrey's voice, please react to Suite Sister Mary. It basically has everything. If it disappoints you, dinner's on me 😊 btw, another wonderful.com reaction. Geoff is pretty unknown and underrated singer. A master of his instrument.
ruclips.net/video/8CZGion20E4/видео.html
Alice in chains man
When I was pregnant with my son, the live version of this ttrack was what made him kick for the first time. He loves it, and it became our sing. He is 18 now....
Thats just lovely
Do Eyes of a Stranger. Possibly their most epic song.
I remember now...
@@chrisstone-streetlightinte5629 CHILLS!
Yes !!!!!!! lots of content to marvel over ....EPIC indeed !!!
more of a Jet City Woman man myself
Someone Else? Shows off his voice the best, and doesn't have music to contend with, other than a piano. Amazing power.
The song is about lucid dreaming...the ability to recognize that you are dreaming without waking, which then allows you to control your dream. In the song, he’s telling a (his perhaps?) child that he doesn’t need to fear his nightmares, and that behind his fears lies an amazing realm of magic and possibility. “Even in your dreams, I can love you, protect you, and care for you. Let me show you how...” From my own experience, I can assure you that lucid dreaming is real. It’s an extraordinary experience, and when you think about it, occurs only in an extremely unusual state of mind. Glad you enjoyed the song.! It’s one of my favorites. :)
@wizzolf schaferhund Thank you! :)
I love this song. I have achieved lucid dreaming a couple of times in my life, but both times it was just moments before my alarm clock woke me up, so I didn't have the opportunity to take advantage of it.
I didn't know that song was about that! I've been lucid dreaming for years. Completely controlling the dream, and after awhile the dreams become cosmic to complete nothingness... after you have run through all of your desires and all of your fears...
I totally agree and have had lucid dreams , but never get to finish them.
I've told myself in bad dreams it,s not real it,s a dream wake up before something bad was about to happen.
this was so popular when it was released, to the point of being overplayed a bit. Now, years later I can listen to it again with fresher ears.
You got that right. It was played so much, I couldn't stand to hear it one more time. After that I gave up MTV and never listened to music radio again. I Streamed music and CDs only after that.
That is why I don't listen to much radio because of the looping of certain songs .support your artists by buying there records 99% of there best songs don't get airplay
Exactly right. It's such a pleasure to listen this song all over again... for the first time.
I always get "allergic" when something becomes immediately popular no matter how good it is(i just don't see it at the time), gotta give it some time before the appreciation comes(IF it comes..). I had this experience for example with Metallica's black album, it took hella decades before i got into it :D Not THAT great of an album as a whole though IMO(compared to ALL their previous records), but still very solid & amazing sound considering when it was produced.
"Someone close to you leaving the game.... of life".... Lost a friend 1/1/97. This was the only Queenryche song she liked. "Free to fly"....
That's sad and beautiful at the same time! Your friend left you with some beautiful music to mourn and rejoice with!
I always think of my son when that lyric hits, I lost him in '91 at the age of 6 months. To think he'd be almost 30 right now just blows my mind lol
Damien Maynard I feel your pain. I lost my wife 1-11-17, she was only 35. She wasn't into metal but I would play some of my favorites for her and this was one of them. I still remember her tears when she listened to it. It's songs like these that brings them back to our sides.. if only for a brief moment. Peace brother
@@tolget4684 they are everywhere all of the time.... not just when you think of them and are sad.
Thank you all for your response
I remember hearing their first EP when it came out. I was thinking, "this is the next super band." Since that album I made sure to catch Queensryche every time they hit San Diego. Amazing band live... Bummer that they couldn't get along internally. The world was robbed of something very special.
I bought that cassette when it came out
I would suggest listening to their Operation:Mindcrime album, start to finish with your headphones on. It'll change your life.
This ☝️😎☝️
Gotta read the lyrics along with listening to the album. So well written.
In addition to that, check out Operation Livecrime ... the entire concert/theatrical representation.
Geoff had a legit 4 octave vocal range. Brilliant in his prime.
I had read he was 5 octaves but yesh
in no way am i taking anything away from this amazing guys voice ,octave 4 / 5 / rob halford ( JUDAS PRIEST ) try 6
Hopefully this doesn't get lost in the comments. But let me tell you I truly love the way you break down the vocals in music. I'm so sick, and yes I'll get flak for it, all the autotune out there helping people. I so love the music that was around before autotune because you could hear the artists natural voice. Even if it wasn't perfect live, it was "their" voice you heard. Subbed and will continue watching your new and older vids.
Great reaction!
The late Michael Kamen did the orchestrations on this song. A timeless classic.
Kamen was a brilliant dude. Always thought he deserved more recognition for his keyboard playing and orchestral arrangements on Pink Floyd's The Final Cut.
Geoff Tate’s vocals couldn’t have been mixed better on this track. His voice sits so well in the pocket and is flawless. Mix wise. Amazing vocalist anyway.
Geoff's voice was really at it's peak during the Empire era of QR. I think this song was recorded in Vancouver, which at the time, was used by a LOT of bands. Aerosmith, Motley and Bon Jovi used the same studio. The mixing console and mic pre amps were absolutely amazing. The Vancouver studio was on par with Sound City and the Sunset Sound. Also, the production and engineering was also top notch. What you have here are several elements all coming together. They caught lightening in a bottle.
@ Ace excellent breakdown. they just don’t make music AT ALL like this and never will and a shame, this self absorbed hack like this RVA lady, who interrupts and skips seconds off the clock so she can be noticed and so horribly off target it’s embarrassing.
Go watch the African American channels REACTIONS to this track, The DJ from the Warriors Movie (female) who did a reaction to this vid, they just stare in awe and LISTEN , cry , trying to wrap their head around what they saw in the video and on vocals as ALL of them had the lyrics in front of them and just kept quiet and didn’t bump them gums the entire vid . Say Hi to Gene Simmonstein and Pete for me bro.....
Thank you for going back to Queensryche. Geoff has a great voice
had*
@@Ymiraku I saw him live a couple months ago. I have to disagree. Still perfect.
Geoff Tate is one of the greatest rock vocalists ever. I really recommend “Eyes of a Stranger” and “Empire.”
"Walk In The Shadows" great Queensryche song!
Had you never heard this song Rebecca? My god if not, better late then never.
Geoff made such an impression on you with "Take Hold of the Flame" I'm glad you decided to check out another one of his songs. He really is awesome.
"Someone you love
leaving the game (of life)."
Guitarist Chris DeGarmo wrote this song and plays the acoustic guitar at the beginning of the video, then Michael Wilton plays the acoustic guitar while Chris plays that heart wrenching solo on the double neck guitar, and then Chris winds up back on acoustic guitar at the end.
The late great conductor/arranger Michael Kamen was responsible for the beautiful orchestration here as well.
Still brings the tears for me.
Touches my heart.
RIP Michael Kamen
You have a soul , I’ve seen em all cry , including myself nearly every time...recorded in 432Hertz where the masterpiece builds to a crescendo of emotion, this was designed to pull at that 1 magical chord, the soul .
@Rebecca please react to queensryche - eyes of a stranger...
I’m so happy my brother Mikael got me into Queensrÿche back in the days.
Geoff could clearing his throat and it was magic.
Now when Mikael is gone (braincancer) my comfort is watching Geoff or QR to bring back those sweet sweet memories from our childhood.
Geoff Tate is one of my all time favorite vocalists
My brother attempted suicide when I was 13, he was 18... he survived, but was paralyzed and never the same. He died six years later. I've always thought of him when I hear this. I've since lost my mom, 2016, now it's even more special. When others listen to songs like this and feel it, REALLY feel it like you do, it means so much!
I’m so sorry for your losses 🙏🏻
@@FeelTheRush67 Thank you 💙
Damn dude....man
@@jtmoore662 ❤
Have you ever done Steve Perry's 'Foolish Heart', his vocal quality and that rasp comes through so beautifully in that song!
Geoff was so underrated. He’s amazing.
Queensryche 'Someone Else?'
just a piano and Geoff's incredible voice 😀
watchtheskies I took my username from that song. We had gotten DSL (dark ages!) and the provider limited usernames to 8 characters, and I was beating Promised Land to death at the time. The song was playing...and 800 years later I kept the username.
@@sm1else Promised Land is a great album, the last great Tate/Degarmo era Queensryche album
So, Geoff had bullied the songwriting into a large garbage patch. He even dictated an unfortunate sequel to Operation: Mindcrime. After another 6 years of really bad albums and some Tate Family skulduggery, the band chucked him out. His former son-in-law is now a guitarist and the new singer, Todd LaTorre, can sing all the things Tate no longer can. Queensryche’s last three Geoff-Tate-less albums are absolutely fantastic!
Fangalatic Hardly. Condition Human and The Verdict and the new self-titled are so much better.
Fangalatic Sorry you feel that way but you’re missing out.
Remember the very first time I heard this, I was just in my first year in the military and this song comes on the radio , it literally made me stop what I was doing I was entranced to just listen to it ... the lyrics, the voice of Geoff , the melody is perfection , to this day it is one of my favorite songs to sing and play ....
It is assumed to be based on the subject of lucid dreaming. During the middle eight, a distorted voice even explains a method for this: "Visualize your dream. Record it in the present tense. Put it into a permanent form. If you persist in your efforts, you can achieve dream control." [4]
The song was recorded with sweeping orchestrations. Often the orchestra is not relegated to the background but instead is very prominent such as during the second half of the instrumental section (timestamp 3:16 - 3:51).
At the end of the song (5:26), a cello or double bass plays the theme from the traditional Brahms' Lullaby - the typical English translation words being "Lullaby, and good night, go to sleep little baby".
Great insight! Thank you!
Well fucking done mate! Finally, A person who knows WTF is UP.
(I want to speak with you if you don't mind?)
Wow, you managed to copy and paste from wiki...great.
Pro tip: next time delete the footnote mark.
@@o.b.7217 Of course I did. What's the issue. Wow, you managed to be a dick...Next time don't be a dick
I’ve actually done this. Of right before you go to bed and close your eyes, try to look down and visualize looking at your hands, any jewelry and wristbands you should pay close attention to their configuration. One time I thought I had my rings on and in the dream all i had was black rings over where my rings would have been but before I really wasn’t wearing any to bed and only thought it did they appeared “blacked out” I woke up and didn’t have them on after all. My brain made them up, and also mine always start off on a path with a brick wall with vines and draping leaves cascading for what seams like forever into the distance. Point is I can remember the dream when I wake up and if I stay lucid can go right back in where it left off after I’d awoken.
You need to listen to Geoff Tate sing "Queen of the Reich".
I played this song to my girls when they were babies. Love Queensryche
I listen to it to relax after a stressful day at work
The guy has such a strong voice. One of my favorite male singers of all time.
To me, his best performance is on "Someone Else", you would be amazed !
Yes! I'd love to see Rebecca react to that song. It's one of my favorite Queensrÿche songs, even though it isn't Metal at all. Very poignant lyrics as well. For me, 'Promised Land' was their last great album.
Agree :) Epic!
A-fuckin'-men
Just Geoff and a piano. Great stuff.
I've noticed Rebecca, when you find a male attractive, you glance down and to the right ... no poker face ... but pretty.
I am sick 🤒 This video made my day little better. Thanks Rebecca❤
Get better soon
This isn't a Rock Ballad; It's a Timeless Rock Lullaby.
7:01 The reason why that part was so soothing to you is because it's quite similar to the notes used in the "Lullaby" song.
It was a very soft and touching end and a nod to all those who have ever sung a lullaby to a precious child.
Please do more Geoff Tate!
The only thing better than listening to amazing music.. is sharing it....... wonderful
A teen’s life is pretty rough with all the emotions and trying to find their place in the world. I would put this CD on and turn the lights off and try to decompress from the day. That was a while ago, but I still think music is great therapy!
Geoff Tate is heavenly and helped me through troubled waters with this song !!!!
These guys turned metal into art. To get a little up, close and personal with them, please react to The Killing Words from 1992 MTV Unplugged.
I wasnt a huge Quuensryche fan but they killed it with this song. Absolutely one of my favorite songs ever, chills roll over me listening to it.
I love it when English people say, "it's so lovely". I've heard this song a hundred times, but never appreciated as much as I did listening to her. Great video! Subscribed. . .
I like it better when the English women say, "oh, you naughty boy."
If you like their ballads check out " I will remember" from the Rage for Order album. Was a camp counselor my senior year of H.S. for 3 days.....made my kids listen to it to fall asleep one night. They were snoozin' by the end of the song. Great song.
You’re finally getting to the good stuff, Becca 😉👌
When the chorus kicks in with the "I - will be watching over you," it still sends a shiver up my spine.
I about dropped my phone when I saw your notification on another Queensrÿche reaction. Thank you for your insightfulness! It made my morning walk to work more bearable. Continued success!
Not to get too corny..but.. This is one of my favorite songs ever. I just turned 51 years old so I can say that after having heard a few. It's been almost impossible for me to listen to it because of the lyrics for almost eight years now. My first granddaughter passed away from a birth defect, fifteen months after she was born. Watching this with you let me listen to it again without descending very deeply into sadness. Thank you for doing this video.
Even though this song was hugely overplayed in 1990 on (E)M(P)TV, it still remains a beautiful song to this day. Better than what we're being subjected to these days in the mainstream, for damned sure. Positive and lovely/loving lyrics, too, another thing we don't hear enough of. Geoff in his prime could do no wrong, for sure.
Ahhh….in my family, I'm the one who put my nephews and nieces down for the night because I was the only one who could get them to sleep. My secret was singing this song to them ;)
A few useless facts about Geoff and this song:
- When it first came out, people would call radio stations asking to hear the new Pink Floyd song, not knowing it (who) was Queensryche
- Geoff, I'm sure someone has mentioned to you here at some point, was classically trained. Unfortunately, because he was (is?) a smoker, he's since lost much of that vocal magic
- This video was nominated for 5 MTV VMA's in 1991. They lost 4 out of the 5 awards, but ironically the one award they DID win was the Viewer's Choice Award for Best Video
- That night, they performed Silent Lucidity live for the first time with the actual orchestra who recorded the studio version. You can find the performance here on RUclips
- Michael Kamen, who would go on to lead the National Philharmonic, conducted the orchestration for the album version of the song
- The final cello notes that close out the song are actually taken from Brahms 'Lullaby'
- Queensryche performed on MTV's Unplugged in 1992, and it was one of their best performances ever. They did 'Silent Lucidity' among others, but my favorite performance of the night was the stripped down acoustic version of 'The Killing Words.' If you ever want to hear a great example of Geoff's vocal range live, I HIGHLY recommend you look up this performance. They did 6 songs total, 5 making the final edit. The one that got cut was an interesting version of 'Scarborough Faire'
LOVE your vids! Keep it up :)
One of my favourite songs when this was first released all those years ago and it still sounds as good now as it did then. Thank you, your videos are terrific you are so nice and bright and very cool.
Geoff Tate and the rest of the band are very wonderful. Every album hides many surprises as far as their talents. Incredible lyrics, voice, and musicians. Every song is wonderful
"I will remember" live (unplugged) and you will hear how soft yet powerful his voice truly is.
Albert Sampson also The killing words and Della Brown
agree, she MUST do this. it's incredible. it's what i was looking for when i found this.
The Lady wore black mmmmmm mmm oooh ohhhh!!!!
@@andreshernandez1180 OMG! Della Brown is such a beautiful song and awesome story! Kudos Andres!
Geoff Tate is also one of the nicest guys I have met.
Always have been a fan of Queensryche..so many songs by them you could react to. London,jet city women,eyes of a stranger,queen of the ryche and I don't belive in love are just a few i would love to see you react to..keep up the good work
"oh Geoffrey" - ha - made me chuckle.
great choice, one of the most amazing songs out there 😎👍
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed. I still remember the first time I heard it as a teenager. It made an impact on me and it still does. Thank you for this reaction.
This album defined my senior year in high school. Got me through couple rough patches culminating in the live show in May of 1991 in Madison, WI where they filmed the show for Operation: Livecrime ... watch Suite Sister Mary from that show.
Also, Michael Kamen wrote the orchestration for this. He also wrote orchestration for Metallica and the score for Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves
It's "of life. Not "a life. His voice only lasted for bout 10 years until cigs and booze got ahold of him. Then he went nuts and got kicked out of his own band. But yes he was the best at that time. The whole band was.
Check out him singing Scarborough fair probably the best vocals ever
While having an incredible singing talent its his diction that always amazes me. Great post btw.
"He seems a bit more calmer in that song."
Cracked me up.
I know I'm old ... but this song very much reminds me of pink floyd i.e., this song could be on a pink floyd album and fit right in ... very reminiscent of them ... makes me wonder if the writer and singer were going for that or possibly influenced by pink floyd growing up.
It’s such a good song but I could never like it as much as I should because it’s such an obvious PF rip.
He sounds sincere all the way through, and he puts a lot of himself in his singing.
We're all off key sometimes, and that's okay, but it's never okay to sing without passion and spirit.
A great song to review of his vocal talent , listen to “Road to Madness”
That part that you were "freaked out" by, enhanced the song. It made the song not only emotional but also majestic
It's the one part of the song I have a gripe about. I would rather have had the guitar solo continue over that gorgeous chord progression.
I remember when you listened too Take hold of the Flame.... Geoff is one of the best vocalists ever to live. And he will go down in history as such. Not just for his genre, but Vocalists in general. I'm so glad you heard this other side of his abilities. He still carries on to this day at 59 years old. love your channel. You are the real deal. \m/
I was wondering when you would get around to this song :) Oh and you are still cute as ever ❤️
Was an amazing experience interviewing Geoff Tate over the phone for my website and the voice was as divine over the phone as well 😊
You have great taste Rebecca, Skid Row, I Remember You and now this. 80's metal ballads were the best.
Jeff Tate got those powerful vocals with opera techniques. You should listen to him sing WALK IN THE SHADOWS off their rage for order album(a masterpiece by the way).
If you ever have 60-80 minutes to kill, the entire Operation Mindcrime album is just a masterpiece. It's probably the greatest theme album ever recorded with a very compelling story about political intrigue, drug addiction, murder and loss. It is astonishing on a musical level and the highs and lows from song to song (telling an amazing story) will leave you completely wrung out by the end. Better than most movies you'll see.
It gets on my nerves that most people bore me stupidly cause the best part of this video is Scott Rockinfields huge ass drum set and how it is so awesomely shot in this video for the dreamy state of conscience of a child's dream. Chris the lead guitarist wrote this song too.
i’d like to see what you think of Steelheart “i’ll never let you go” and Great White “angel song”
Another song that you might want to listen to which brings out Geoff Tates voice is Anybody Listening
If you were a Queensryche fan you were like upper echelon of being a music fan excellent excellent choice!
One of my all time Favorite songs , just Beautiful
Brilliant band . Operation mindcrime by queensryche is a brilliant piece of music
The cello at the end is playing Brahms Lullaby… go to sleep, go to sleep…
Empire was a masterpiece. QR is the most underrated rock/metal band of all time.
This one is easy. 😜🤣
Thanks for pointing out some of the nuances.
I'd like to recommend River Of Deceit by Mad Season, in my opinion, Layne Staley had a phenomenal vocal, he was with Alice In Chains.
The distorted voice says "visualize your dream, record it in the present tense, put it into a permanent form.
If you persist in your efforts, you will achieve dream control."
One of my favorite Queensrÿche songs! Beautifully written & of course Geoff Tate’s voice is incredible!
One of the best, but underrated bands every. They are in my top 10 for sure.
One of the few “reactors” who gives us both the technical and emotional side of music. Most others are one or the other. Great to see you doing Queensryche again.
Sugar matastic is u 😊
but anyhow nice voice legit
