Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy I wasn't too sure if that was you in the video or another guy with the same name. Then I heard you sing and I was like "Yup! That's him." Btw, I'm subscribed to your channel and I love your content. Very enjoyable to watch.
Ken...good stuff. I grew up listening to Shout and Tamplin...def inspired me to play in bands all my life! I happened upon your vocal academy videos today and came full circle with your talent. Keep on going ;-)
Ken Tamplin back in the day, out-talents Steve Tyler or Axel Rose by a country mile. He out sang them easily, AND shredded on guitar, could move better than any of them. I probably never heard of him because he was a 'Christian rocker' - but holy cow, he could do it all. So could his mates. This is old school shoot-on-a-rooftop guerilla filmmaking, running, jumping and dancing around in front of a camera, running around WITH the camera, no special effects. Just charisma and big hair, backed up by serious musical chops. Tamplin's voice kicked everybody's ass. How did I ever not know about this.
@@renierlombard5758/home um... I've seen him in person playing. it may be a prop in a video where standard practice for every artist is to lipsync and pretend, which just proves how ignorant you are

WOW! Why was this recommended to me now in 2021. Does it have anything to do that i turned to GOD in 2020 & havent stopped hungering for GOD like king david? They are Awesome too 👍
1 year after Russia opened its borders to the U.S. We went used this song to draw a crowd for a street drama we did to evangelize (1991). Wow - what a memory. Didn't think I'd find this song again.
@@lonelybro77 Nice! no it was with Teen Mania (way back when it was a pretty good organization)... It was pretty amazing being in Mosco, St. Petersburg etc. at that time.
I am 100 % Atheist, and was very surprised when I discovered that Ken Tamplin was a Christian rock singer, but nevertheless his talent is beyond my comprehension.
Chris if you're one-hundred-percent atheist as you say you are then you shouldn't believe in anything including air including love anything else you can think of, you may not believe in God but he still believes in you Chris! Ask him into your heart and you will find out he is real
@@ritchievernon8099 You really need to look up what atheism is. You can be an atheist, and still believe in love. I can't think of any atheist who doesn't believe in air. To suggest that atheists inherently don't believe in these things is completely ridiculous.
Cowtipper: Hey Chris, I became an agnostic after believing in God as a Roman Catholic my whole childhood. Some things happened in my life that made me think God can't possibly exist but I was still unsure. One day, God showed me His reality and will to you too if you ask Him humbly to do so if you really want to know the truth. He isn't a Santa Claus though like you see some of these TV preachers today teach. He is high and lifted up, the Creator of all things. To say you are 100% atheist is to say you are omniscient and have all knowledge of all things and that YOU know God doesn't exist out there. You can't know that. None of us KNOW ALL THINGS. Eternity is forever my friend. Please do not take that lightly. Your soul was so valuable to the God you say doesn't exist that He sent His Son to come and die in our place to take the penalty of your sins and we have many my friend. WE all need a Saviour. Some things to think about. There are 2,000 already fulfilled Bible prophecies in the Bible. Jesus fulfilled over 300 of those while on earth. Mathematicians about 3 decades ago did a mathematical probability on one person fulfilling just 8 pre-written prophecies and the “probability” number they came up with was so astronomical that is was impossible unless of course there is a God. Haha. It's true buddy. He loves you. Come to Him. Things are going to get really bad on earth. We are just seeing the beginning and we need to get close to God while we can so that we are not deceived. Check out Russian mathematician Ivan Panin's BIBLE NUMERICS. Yes, the Bible has another layer beneath it like a skin of an onion. Ivan was either an agnostic or atheist and set out to prove God's word was not true. He became a believer after discovering the Bible Numerics phenomenon throughout all its pages and spent the rest of his life finding these things in every verse. Nobody knew of this mathematical layer until God used an atheist/agnostic like you to figure it out. God's word is written both with language and numbers my friend. I can give you other reasons but if this is not enough, I will leave it at that. Here is a link with videos on Bible Numerics. ruclips.net/p/PLwm7qmU6JaJL05_wGRGt1MpvWgFiV7u2w Most people really don't come to God not because He hasn't proven His existence by His Creation and other proofs but because they don’t want to turn to Him knowing He will want to change their lives and make them holy. Thing is Chris, He does the work in us and changes our desires to His if we let Him. There is one way, one truth and one life unto the Father, and that is Jesus the Christ (John 14:6).
Jesus kicked the devil's ass! I can say that cuz I follow him. So, you're the fool that sez there's no God? Then, what is your reality? Joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, love, self-control? Any of the above?
Ken Tamplin, This was incredible - You should sing this song on your channel breaking down your technique - Your leads were also incredible as was the song, I love it. I bet if you hadn't been a Christian Rock musician your career would have went even farther but as you know God is way more important.
I dont know who the left handed player in the video is, but the lead guitar was actually played by one of my all-time favorite players: Mark St. John from KISS. Today would be Mark's 63rd birthday if he was still alive, but I know he's celebrating with Jesus now. Plus Ken Tamplin is one of my favorite singers, and I especially love his work with Shout. There's too much awesomeness in this song, and it makes me proud to live for the Lord too!
@@billylarouqe1157 The left handed guitar player is an incredibly talented guy named Scott Van Zen who played on many of the tracks on An Axe To Grind. Scott just released a new solo album called No Words. Yes, it is an instrumental CD as the name implies, and it is full of righteous guitar, bass, and drums from beginning to end. I only paid $15 and it came in the mail autographed to me from Scott on the front. How cool is that? Check out Scott's youtube videos. He has a lot of material out there.
@@John3_16andthensome Thanks for the answer. Yes, Scott is a great player and he did some great fretwork throughout the album. That's so nice that he signed the record for you!
Hi Ken I'm someone of a newcomer to your Channel I didn't know that you did Christian rock you made me smile my friend can I say Praise Jesus and all the glory to God I've been I've been saved 48 years now I gave the Lord my life when I was 13 I have to say the best thing I ever did by far keep up the good work brother love your Channel🙏
How did I miss these guys????...oh yeah ...well till about 1985 I was basically "fried & baked"...then by his grace("supernatural slack"...I've been Living for my Lord!!!! Strange though I never recall hearing his stuff...I was wrapped up in Rez Band and Bloodgood ,Deliverance Bride...etc... well Old school can be New school in the kingdom!
Wrapped up, eh? Yeah, they're good cover. I saw some of them, but Undercover, Darrel Mansfield, Steve Taylor- they were always playing somewhere- always for free. The Lord sez, Freely you have received, freely give. Amen
Yeah, you're right it must be the power of the media and not that Christian Rock is a very small sub genre that most people don't like. I think Ken is one of the most incredible singers, but if he had a mainstream message he would have had a better chance of getting a mainstream response. You might as well have said "thanks Obama"...
Ken is older and wiser now. That means he can still write and perform like he was 20, and he's still living for my Lord. In fact, he's a front-line warrior trying to wake the sheeple up to the times we are living in. Fantastic song and whole band performance. Luvin' it :)
Ken has the musical talent and charisma of the top rock front men. If he wrote more outside the Christian rock genre I can see him being a household name
Ken, I'm so impressed! You and the others look and sound so good. I almost didn't recognize you with the dark hair! I love the song and so glad you that love the Lord! It's the most important thing we can do! You're a great singer and anyone who takes lessons from you will be great too! Bravo!!!❤
It wouldn't let me post a comment. Thought I had made an effort to find Christian rock before but some how had missed Mr. Ken Tamplin may the Lord continue to bless him. RUclips recommended from me going into Bloodgood land.

The thing about Ken is that he smiles way to much. You would never be able to know that the Ken Tamplin here and the one on the Vocal academy is the same Ken. His vocals is way better here than it is now. I just think this suits you better Ken, in case you see this comment. I love ya my brother Keep singing.
I see a lot of comments from years ago, jist outta curiosity, how many of ya'll are still walking with the Lord ? I'm going on 36 yers of stumbling and falling, and Jesus helping me back up to my knees. But through it all I am still living for the Lord!
I'm with you, MIles. Not many people out there really grew with and understand Christian Metal, so it comes easy for them to pass judgement. I love Tamplin and Shout and back in the day this video was the bomb. A very talented band.
That's kinda funny cuz they've got nothing like Deliverance, Tourniquet, Bloodgood, Petra, Stryper, etc...these guys lift Jesus up, whilst putting the devil down. Can they match that? Methinks not!
I loved lisa voice it was very adaptable she had great compression for the hard rock sound but a clean beutiful sound for songs like tonight . Would have been interesting if she tackled alult contemporary.
♫ For anyone interested, this track is on the album "An Axe to Grind" Tamplin and friends. Most of Ken Tamplin's solo works are outstanding, including his work with the band "Shout", which have 3 releases, (not to forget the band "Magdallan"). ☮
HELLO TO ALL MY FRIENDS OUT THERE. . .I'VE BEEN WATCHING THIS KEN TAMPLIN VIDEO 'LIVIN FOR THE LORD' SEVERAL TIMES EVERYDAY FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS AND I HAVE TO SAY EVERY TIME I SEE AND HEAR IT IT GETS 10 TIMES BETTER THAN THE TIME BEFORE!!! GOD SPEED, GOD BREATHED, AND GOD BLESS J.C.S. !!! ROCK & ROLL AND KICKING THE DEVIL'S ASS ALL OVER THE PLACE LIVIN FOR MY LORD!!!
Ken... WOW! Just found this... Explains a LOT to me now... :) Just reinforces what I've always known as a believer.....there is NO "Christian" music per se......ONLY "Christian" lyrics. ROCK ON Brother!!! Randy C-17A :)
Awesome Ken. I was playing with a famous hair band guy from the 80's in the 90's (who should remain nameless now). Had to become Christian after all that. I love all the vox lessons. You are the best..
it would be awesome if slash would come to Christ and start using his formidable talents for the praise and worship of Christ. Love you Jesus and all things are possible especially when those seeking God pray for the lost!!!!!!! The prayer of the Righteous availeth much!!!!! God gave the ability to play and sing to people its our job to reach out to them because possessions and temporal goals has stolen their minds away from God their creator the name of The LORD!
WOW!!!! I've been following your channel.. I never knew u were that kind of guy. I'm blown away at your style in the hair band days... I'm 49 and grew up listening to this kind of music. AWESOME!!!!
I've been a fan since the 80's when I was a teenager.I think he was blond then in Shout,so he looks a little different now.There was way more hair spray too.
Man you guys have that 80's power rock thing down. I literally stumbled into this today while looking around for an idea of what the state of Christian rock & metal are currently. Finding a new OLD BAND/artist for me is very rare because I have been involved with music and musicians for so many years that I know 100's of them. WOW.
Who is that guy, anyway? :)

His vocals is way better here than it is now. I just think this suits you better Ken, in case you see this comment. I love ya my brother Keep singing.
I see a lot of comments from years ago, jist outta curiosity, how many of ya'll are still walking with the Lord ? I'm going on 36 yers of stumbling and falling, and Jesus helping me back up to my knees. But through it all I am still living for the Lord!
I'm with you, MIles. Not many people out there really grew with and understand Christian Metal, so it comes easy for them to pass judgement. I love Tamplin and Shout and back in the day this video was the bomb. A very talented band.
That's kinda funny cuz they've got nothing like Deliverance, Tourniquet, Bloodgood, Petra, Stryper, etc...these guys lift Jesus up, whilst putting the devil down. Can they match that? Methinks not!
This is beautiful
Long live Metal
And God is Good ❤
Damn...that high on 2:58 was beauty
Ken Tamplin - Probably the best guitarist among vocal coaches and the best vocal coach among guitarists :-) Cheers Ken! C(_)
And Ken is also in Shout and Magdallan. Must haves for 80’s Christian rock fans.
Seen the vocal academy for years, I have to say that this song impressed me with the guitars and vocals. :)
This song was released in 1990. Ken was 26. His hair today reminds me of The Doobie Brothers' Patrick Simmons in his younger days.
Sometimes he sounds like Lou Gramm. Greetings and bless from Chile 🇨🇱🎼
Very good man... Rock and Roll a serviço do Reino de Deus.🎸🎤🎼
Tamplin & friends are the unsung heroes of Southern Cali . Tamplin was the Best of the best. Still is!
I loved lisa voice it was very adaptable she had great compression for the hard rock sound but a clean beutiful sound for songs like tonight . Would have been interesting if she tackled alult contemporary.
He's my vocal coach. Love this album, great man of God, singer, guitarist extraordinaire!!
This is AMAZING! We need more good, hard christian rock in this world!
No longer shall we be called boring, blinkered bible-thumpers!
🤘🤘
i love this song i am a punk drummer love the drums rock n roll for jesus
♫ For anyone interested, this track is on the album "An Axe to Grind" Tamplin and friends. Most of Ken Tamplin's solo works are outstanding, including his work with the band "Shout", which have 3 releases, (not to forget the band "Magdallan"). ☮
Ha !Ken, your voice is recognizable. I was glad to hear you
Ken's voice and guitar work are amazing! Love this tune! I've been a Ken Tamplin fan for years! Thanks for posting this!
First time I knew about him and saw this video. Love it. 😍
This song totally rocks.
OH. MY. GOD! I had no idea this existed lol wow.. I was familiar with Christian music from 70's and 80"s but never bands like this.. That's awesome.
Wow! I love this!
One things for certain......God blessed that vocalist with quite the range lol. Praise Jesus! :)
Oh My Goodness, You sounded like Petra but then you took it into outspace. GOD ROCKS!!
Bless You Ken
when you hear a song like this, you have no reason to wonder why you didn't sell a million copies of the record😅
HELLO TO ALL MY FRIENDS OUT THERE. . .I'VE BEEN WATCHING THIS KEN TAMPLIN VIDEO 'LIVIN FOR THE LORD' SEVERAL TIMES EVERYDAY FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS AND I HAVE TO SAY EVERY TIME I SEE AND HEAR IT IT GETS 10 TIMES BETTER THAN THE TIME BEFORE!!! GOD SPEED, GOD BREATHED, AND GOD BLESS J.C.S. !!! ROCK & ROLL AND KICKING THE DEVIL'S ASS ALL OVER THE PLACE LIVIN FOR MY LORD!!!
Great song! The vocals really kills it! And the guitar solos!
Scott Van Zen!! Excellent guitar teacher!!
Cool jam. Great vocals, lyrics and killer lead guitarist.
Awesome song, Amazing vocals and guitar chops!!!
I want to sing and play like this someday! That's the exact style and lyrics and pitch and everything! Way to rock Sensei Ken!
Still some of the best Christian rock out there after all these years.
Ken... WOW! Just found this... Explains a LOT to me now... :) Just reinforces what I've always known as a believer.....there is NO "Christian" music per se......ONLY "Christian" lyrics. ROCK ON Brother!!! Randy C-17A :)
Here it is: Every cliche in"Rock and"Rock videos"...Every single one
I love this song, the part where he sings "....clouds roll back" verse is the best verse.
Wow, have this CD, I remember watching this VHS tape back in the day. He and Chuck could really play in Shout.
Ken is that you. Love that hair!
This was a pretty good song; thanks for sharing it with us. Jesus is truly my and the Lord!!!
Awesome Ken. I was playing with a famous hair band guy from the 80's in the 90's (who should remain nameless now). Had to become Christian after all that. I love all the vox lessons. You are the best..
A day late and a dollar short
it would be awesome if slash would come to Christ and start using his formidable talents for the praise and worship of Christ. Love you Jesus and all things are possible especially when those seeking God pray for the lost!!!!!!! The prayer of the Righteous availeth much!!!!! God gave the ability to play and sing to people its our job to reach out to them because possessions and temporal goals has stolen their minds away from God their creator the name of The LORD!
Bless you, Ken what is exciting song especially for the Lord. Hallelujah.
Love it! I remember watching this on my Hot Metal 4 VHS many moons ago! Thanks for bringing back good old memories :)
Mtv
Mr Tamplin, bring us more videos, please. Your sound is awesome!
Tamplin is a monster of a singer ! ..and a guitar virtuoso too. Also I listen to Foreigner, FM, ChrisOusey.. all the greatest hard rock:)
WOW!!!! I've been following your channel.. I never knew u were that kind of guy. I'm blown away at your style in the hair band days... I'm 49 and grew up listening to this kind of music. AWESOME!!!!
look up "shout give me an answer" on RUclips.
I've been a fan since the 80's when I was a teenager.I think he was blond then in Shout,so he looks a little different now.There was way more hair spray too.
OMG its my vocal coach.. line 😱😱❤💕💪
Man you guys have that 80's power rock thing down. I literally stumbled into this today while looking around for an idea of what the state of Christian rock & metal are currently. Finding a new OLD BAND/artist for me is very rare because I have been involved with music and musicians for so many years that I know 100's of them. WOW.
Heard years ago you gave your life to the Lord. I can say I sat next to a future rockstar in 6th grade!! Go Emery Eagles!!
I had a cassette of his when he was the singer for the band Shout.
Me too.
I know one of his students who has made amazing progress and she is in no way being ripped off. Actually, she is on her up.
Asierramoore Ken is the best and most honest vocal coach on internet
i like it Gospel Music, Thank, danke, gracias, merci.
Ohhhh ya! Amen brother! I hope the Lord crosses our paths someday
I love this song.. hallelujah in God's name... 🙏😇🐩
