He did not destroy his voice, whoever said that doesnt know what they are talking about. Hes still touring an sounds great. He did however, stop sounding so good for a while, but Id be willing to bet it was on purpose since it was right around the time he had all that drama with the band and then left. Their breakup was like a bad toxic divorce.
I dont know who made the comment that he destroyed his voice....smh, absolutely not true. Eyes of a Stranger came out in '88. The man is older now and doesn't sing in that register anymore. But if you watch some of his latest live videos you'll see that he can still belt. Maybe half a step lower but still powerful 🙂
Exactly! I talked about this during the livestream! At a certain age, any voice, including professionally trained classical singers can start to lose facility in their voices.
His voice isn't destroyed. He had vocal training at a young age and he just laid off some off the exercising into his 60's now. He has been actually sounding pretty good this year.
There's some misinformation about Geoff Tate. He was a smoker but gave it up years ago. His voice did deteriorate in the late 1990s/early 2000s but he has recovered most of his voice in recent years. Yes, he's in his 60s and can't quite hit the higher notes the way he did in his 20s and 30s, but he still sounds amazing live. The man has a great natural voice and excellent technique. By comparison, the man who replaced him in what remains of Queensryche can hit the high notes but doesn't sound nearly as good at anything else.
Actually, Geoff was dropping the highest note on the "all" syllable of the line "No happy ending like they've always promised" by the time I saw the band live during the "Building Empires" tour in 19990. However, he does hit a high Gb5 preety full on during the encore performance of "Walk in the Shadows" on the DVD "Mindcrime at the Moore" which I'm sure is a lot higher and at least a decade later! Todd la Torre singing "Dilent Lucidity" is woeful!
This is the first song of theirs I heard then saw Operation: Mindcrime and Empire tours, then the 20th anniversary of mindcrime then Geoff solo this year. He's still phenomenal
He was classically trained and he didn't really destroy his voice because he still has chops today. Touring for decades eventually gets all the singers that's that powerful
Yes. It’s hard to take any of the songs on this album out of context…it’s a concept album that tells a whole story, and still sounds amazing. Worst part for me is that they were never really the same after Chris DeGarmo left (the guitarist in the hat, in this particular video).
@@chrys0130 So glad parents are sharing this amazing, epic, f'ing rocking group with their progeny. My cells are made up of 10% QR. This album was on a loop. 🤘😠🤘💜
And let's have a LOT of love for Eddie (bass) and Scott (drums), who are quite possibly one of the finest rhythm sections in music. The way they hold down this and so many other songs is phenomenal!
Eddie is also a fantastic singer. You can really hear him in Queensÿche's Live Evolution concert. The audio is much better than in Operation:Livecrime. I got to see Queensÿche 3 times. What a treat!
His voice isn't destroyed. Ive seen him 2 times in the last 3 years. About to see him again soon. He still has his great voice. He sang for 3 hours last concert and kicked butt. Maybe some people are in need of hearing assistance? Geoff is opera trained so you should recognize it. He has a 4 and 1/2 octave voice. He is a true master of his instrument! Greatest rock voice ever! And he does announce his words extremely well. It was just voice inflection, selling us the story thats unfolding.
Guy is in his 60s and still sings amazing!! Don’t listen to the haters! The only thing that changed is his tone a bit and his range a slight bit because he’s an old man now!
The “Doctor Blair, Doctor J Hamilton” piece is from a standard background sound effects package. When this album came out, there was a listserv group that kept track of every TV show, etc that used the same sound package. I spotted it on, of all things, a skit on The New Mickey Mouse Club.
this entire album is awesome, literally a modern rock opera that tells a story, both in the lyrics, and in the sound clips between songs. The live version Operation Livecrime dvd/blue-ray is a must havefor any serious rock/prog rock lover.
Operation mind crime is one of the best concept albums ever. GT had voice issues in the past but he is back touring/singing and he sounds better than ever.
This record and talent just isnt really seen or heard today.....the talent alone, the originality of writing these songs and with a deep story line in it....just awesome. I remember discovering this record in 88, I was blown away as a young teen. I dont hear anything to this caliber today in rock....not even close.
Thank you for very young persons analysis of song but most comments and what not are interesting too. That said please don't think too hard about this or compare it to 2024 as this was released 36 years ago and that's a long long time ago
queensryche music is from washington state its progressive metal and the range that geoff tate has is unbelievable another fantastic heavy metal singer
Geoff did not destroy his voice. He is still singing and has a great voice! He got older and the voice changes but you still see live performances and he is amazing!
I’ve heard him lately and he still sounds pretty darn good. He still does some Queensryche stuff but he tours under his own name Geoff Tate: you can look at some of his stuff from this year here on RUclips. He definitely didn’t destroy his voice. It may not be what it was but it’s still good.
Another Queensryche song to check out is " Gonna get Close to you" off the Rage for Order, album.... His voice changes quite a bit in that one!!!! It was originally recorded by Canadian artist Lisa DalBello...👍👍👍
Really fun watching someone professionally trained react to Geoff. The whole Operation MindCrime was a concept album and the tour was incredibly theatrical. I think you might really like Suite Sister Mary for many rreasons.
He did not destroy his voice and still sings to this day.. Also, the diction you referred to is off base. He was always one of the cleanest vocals around. What you heard was bad audio of a concert. Having been to 6 of their concerts from 80's to 90's I can say they are still the one band that sounded so much like their albums it was crazy. Under rated and SO MUCH more that you need to listen to of theirs
Queesnsryche was a go to for me in the 80's and 90's and still enjoy today .. If you will check out the songs ' Anybody listening' and 'Someone Else' . Those two songs really show Geoff Tates more diverse vocal Skills ..
I saw him live in concert this spring and he sounded awesome. The only difference is, as he said in an interview, that he sings some of the classic songs in lower keys due to his age
I got to see them in 92 which was their last Mindcrime tour at the time. I'm a huge Ryche fan for years now. Geoff was the best singer in metal in my opinion. He was great at adding in emotional detail. He did wear out his voice and tgen between smoking and time away he seemed to stuggle there for a bit, but I believe he's pretty much back now. He is in his 60s. Listen to Queen of the Ryche...you can understand how he wore down a bit after touring
A lot is made (and rightfully so) of Geoff's vocals, but not near enough of his bandmates and their contributions. Every one of them is a master at their craft. Former guitarist Chris DeGarmo, in addition to being a monster guitarist, was also an incredible vocalist in his own right, singing the same notes as Geoff and often singing higher harmonies. Almost everybody in that band also sang backup in addition to their instruments. Great reaction as always.
Someone who is coming out of sedation doesn't have much diction .... it's slurred with blurry vision. Epic Album ... you can feel what the character is feeling.
Being a trained vocalist like yourself, you would truly appreciate the Queensryche catalog. You should listen to the album Rage for Order and the whole Operation Mindcrime album. Just to follow the EPIC story the whole way through. Thanks for listening to a band of my entire youth.
I saw Queensryche twice. A tighter band you will never find. I used to work at the old Cleveland Coliseum. I've seen hundreds of shows. They crushed it.
He did Eyes of a Stranger acoustic version a couple of years back (Geoff Tate "Eyes of a Stranger" Acoustic in San Antonio at The Eagle 106.7). it is worth a listen, I got to see him live in 2019 his range is not like in the early years but he knows how to use what he still has.
He didn't destroy his voice. People just don't want their heroes to age and evolve... Geoff still kicks major tale! These songs are labor intensive and he's still outsinging his replacement. The band lineup changed and he adjusted down to the lower vibrations that were left.... people don't understand how emotional singing can be when you're vibing within a nucleus as opposed to fighting the vibe.
At 11:55: no, he didn’t destroy his voice. He’s 63 now and can still belt out those notes like he’s ordering takeout. He’s done some work with a band called Sweet Oblivion which kinda proves he’s still got the chops.
Best concert I've ever seen. Should have done the Livecrime version of Eyes too... ending is extended with some great guitar work. I was at the Madison, WI show where most of the live footage was taken and can see me and my friends a few times under the boom camera that was swinging over the crowd on the floor.
It funny that you are doing this reation today. This album debuted May 2nd in 1988. Walk in the shadows is one of my favorite songs. The man was unbelievable.
Awesome! Thank you Chase, and Maggie! so glad you did more off this historical LP, and pray you do more of it, and continue the story from it. Seeing them perform this entire LP live is the BEST concert experience I have ever had, and trust me, I have been to hundreds of live shows in my 5 decades of concert going life. 🤘😎🤘
Thanks! I was glad to sponsor it, and I'm so glad you liked it. She was going to react to Eyes of a Stranger, and I was like, "Please do the Empty Room intro into it!! It really helps set the other song up." Luckily, she more than willing to do so! I threw in the backstory of what had happened in the album for context so she could grasp what was happening. She has since reacted to Suite Sister Mary on her Twitch Livestream. I think it will be uploaded here on RUclips before too long. For what its worth... Maggie is very interested in reacting to the entire album, so that might be something that happens sometime in the near future.
@@chasestreet8082 That's fantastic! I have seen her other QR reactions when she did them. I suggested to do the entire LP, and she replied with a thanks for the idea. We shall see if it happens or not.
this is like pink floyd's the wall, hard to take one song out of the entire story line. All the songs are great including "I Don't Believe in Love" You need to listen to the entire album front to back to get the feeling to these songs.
I saw him solo in 2016 and was disappointed. Saw him solo in 2018 and he was better, saw him in 2019 and he was surprisingly very good, saw him in 2020 and he was great. Heard he had been working with a vocal coach.
Mindcrime is one of the greatest albums Queensryche ever made, I know the combos were put on Mindcrime 2, I decided to listen to it tonight, it has to be at least a #2, thanks for the suggestion.
Back again. If I post something too long, it won't post, so now to YOUR REACTION: I LOVE how you hear and point out little details about not just the singing, but other elements of the music and musicianship! It's very satisfying how enthusiastic you are too,! I hope you'll consider doing more Queensryche! "ROADS TO MADNESS" is an early song of their's that's rather epic too. It's about 10" long, and the very last line ( don't sneak ahead and listen to it out of sequence), but Geoff is the most EXPRESSIVE I've ever heard him on this song. Also the lyrical concept is intriguing. Think about the movie: "FLATLINERS". Another song that was done on MTV Unplugged 1992, which is stripped down acoustic is "THE KILLING WORDS." Geoff alters one line in his delivery from the studio version. Very powerful. He's a fearless singer. Which I guess you know something about! CONGRATULATIONS on your recent opera competition win!! You have a beautiful voice yourself!!

Hi Maggie, Ernie Zakri "Zapin Lebaran", I had messaged further info to your IG. Thank you.
I was fortunate to see Operation Mindcrime parts 1 and 2 performed live at House of Blues in New Orleans. Awesome show
He did not destroy his voice, whoever said that doesnt know what they are talking about. Hes still touring an sounds great. He did however, stop sounding so good for a while, but Id be willing to bet it was on purpose since it was right around the time he had all that drama with the band and then left. Their breakup was like a bad toxic divorce.

His voice is an eargasm
Geoff Tate was arguably the best vocalist of the eighties. Mindcrime is a masterpiece from beginning to end.
So is empire
He was great,but c`mon. Halford was unarguably the best.
Geoff Tate, Michael Kiske and Sebastian Bach ruled the Era.
His voice isn’t destroyed. He doesn’t go super high anymore with his vocals. He’s 63. You can’t keep this up forever.
Exactly! I talked about this during the livestream! At a certain age, any voice, including professionally trained classical singers can start to lose facility in their voices.
Totally. He doesn’t go into rafters as often as he used to, but he can still hit those notes and make it look like he’s ordering a pizza.
@@maggiereneemusic Exactly!
@@maggiereneemusic I think people forget that he is 63 years old now.
@@1977mathlete Absolutely!
His voice isn't destroyed. He had vocal training at a young age and he just laid off some off the exercising into his 60's now. He has been actually sounding pretty good this year.
He didn't destroy his voice. He got 40 years older.
100% agreed
I saw him live last year and still sounds great!
Agreed
And he still sounds incredible. Seriously, the man can out perform most singers 20yrs younger than him.
😂
I would pay a millions to have that voice
Chris and Michael had some incredible twin axe moments
The bass sound on this album generally is crushing, Ive spend 20 years trying to replicate it .
This is a MAGNIFICENT Album, one of the Best EVER and the Best Conceptual Album!
He never destroyed his voice.....seen him before Thanksgiving....was rock solid as one can be at 62
I've seen him 9 times in the last 3 years and he sounds amazing every time.
his voice has GREATLY improved since 2019 btw. He has worked hard to achieve that. He has his range again.
No, his voice wasn’t destroyed! I just saw him live a few years ago and he was as good as he’s ever been.
Extreme exaggeration
The most perfect band to ever grace the planet
The lower tone of his voice is what makes Geoff Tate super special.
There's some misinformation about Geoff Tate. He was a smoker but gave it up years ago. His voice did deteriorate in the late 1990s/early 2000s but he has recovered most of his voice in recent years.

Geoff Tate is a singer. Todd La Torre is a screamer.
He's also really enjoying life post bypass surgery and it shows in his performances this year
😆@@alphaomega153

Queensrÿche - Operation: Mindcrime is an EPIC album, a concept album, and IMHO a must-have in any rock or metalheads music collection.
That and Empire are two prog metal classics.
This cd hasn't left the player since I bought my car in 2014
This is the first song of theirs I heard then saw Operation: Mindcrime and Empire tours, then the 20th anniversary of mindcrime then Geoff solo this year. He's still phenomenal
He didn't destroy his voice, he still sounds great! He doesn't push it like he used to because he wants to keep singing as long as he can!
He is, or was, an Opera singer, but joined a metal band and became a fucking legend
He was classically trained and he didn't really destroy his voice because he still has chops today. Touring for decades eventually gets all the singers that's that powerful
I just was saw Geoff Tate live in September 2023 and his voice sounds as good as it ever has, I didn't notice any damaging of his voice
Best progressive metal vocalist ever in my opinion..
One of the best albums ever
Queensryche rules ! . Best band
Girl you really need to listen to that whole album! It's exactly lake musical theaterm
I feel like you're right. 😍
100% percent agree. My dad showed me this album and explained that there is a story and to follow the words carefully. It's a great album!
Yes. It’s hard to take any of the songs on this album out of context…it’s a concept album that tells a whole story, and still sounds amazing. Worst part for me is that they were never really the same after Chris DeGarmo left (the guitarist in the hat, in this particular video).
I love this album. My favorite concept album of all time. The story it tells is epic! Yes an opera of sorts...

Totally agree!
Damn right they are! Those guys are top notch musicians.
Perfect finale for a perfect album.
true
He has not destroyed his voice. He's just aged, but he still sings impressively. Lots of recent videos of him performing prove he's in the game.
Mindcrime is a masterpiece. Perfect in every single possible way.
His voice isn't destroyed. Ive seen him 2 times in the last 3 years. About to see him again soon. He still has his great voice. He sang for 3 hours last concert and kicked butt. Maybe some people are in need of hearing assistance?

Queensryche is one of those bands that perfected the duel guitar sound
He didn’t destroy his voice, he’s just older now
you need to listen to the entire album...it's an entire story
👏👏 When someone gets the greatness of Queensryche. 😊
i wore out the warning album on cassette tape back in the 80s. when i heard geoff tate sing for the first time i was blown away by how good he was.
His voice is still stellar .
This is still one of my favorite albums. You really need to listen to the whole album. Much love
Man, it SUCKS getting old. Grab hold of your youth, people. 🔥
This guy even more recently still sounds much better than I do in my youth if I tried. If I tried, glass would break.
Guy is in his 60s and still sings amazing!! Don’t listen to the haters! The only thing that changed is his tone a bit and his range a slight bit because he’s an old man now!
The “Doctor Blair, Doctor J Hamilton” piece is from a standard background sound effects package. When this album came out, there was a listserv group that kept track of every TV show, etc that used the same sound package. I spotted it on, of all things, a skit on The New Mickey Mouse Club.
I love when I’m watching a random show and it comes on! That list must be fun.
One of the best concept albums in the 80's 🤘
this entire album is awesome, literally a modern rock opera that tells a story, both in the lyrics, and in the sound clips between songs.
The live version Operation Livecrime dvd/blue-ray is a must havefor any serious rock/prog rock lover.
Operation mind crime is one of the best concept albums ever. GT had voice issues in the past but he is back touring/singing and he sounds better than ever.
I got see them play the entire mindcrime album live. You nailed it, it's a hard rock opera
This record and talent just isnt really seen or heard today.....the talent alone, the originality of writing these songs and with a deep story line in it....just awesome. I remember discovering this record in 88, I was blown away as a young teen. I dont hear anything to this caliber today in rock....not even close.
Thank you for very young persons analysis of song but most comments and what not are interesting too. That said please don't think too hard about this or compare it to 2024 as this was released 36 years ago and that's a long long time ago
I just saw Geoff do Rage for Order and Empire last august. He was nearly flawless.
Thank you. I saw him in 91 and in 2018 his voice hasn’t changed a bit.
queensryche music is from washington state its progressive metal and the range that geoff tate has is unbelievable another fantastic heavy metal singer
Geoff did not destroy his voice. He is still singing and has a great voice! He got older and the voice changes but you still see live performances and he is amazing!
I’ve heard him lately and he still sounds pretty darn good. He still does some Queensryche stuff but he tours under his own name Geoff Tate: you can look at some of his stuff from this year here on RUclips. He definitely didn’t destroy his voice. It may not be what it was but it’s still good.
Waaay better than when he got kicked out. He has definitely been putting in work.
He did not destroy his voice. They played the whole album at a festival in Germany in ~2008 and he sounded great.
Another Queensryche song to check out is " Gonna get Close to you" off the Rage for Order, album.... His voice changes quite a bit in that one!!!! It was originally recorded by Canadian artist Lisa DalBello...👍👍👍
Really fun watching someone professionally trained react to Geoff. The whole Operation MindCrime was a concept album and the tour was incredibly theatrical. I think you might really like Suite Sister Mary for many rreasons.
The band and geoff amazing together
His voice is still great
Now listen to this album from start to finish if you want to truly appreciate it it's amazing it's the best album ever
Thank you for your suggestion. Hope to see you later today for my FUN Reactions Livestream?
One of the greatest of all time
He just got older, he didn't destroy his voice. Queensrÿche he left after a controversy with the band. To this day he is still touring as a solo act.
My favorite band and album of all time.
How perfectly did he double those harmonies? Guitar harmonies, too.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Hope to see you later today for my FUN Reactions Livestream?
He didn't harmonize with himself - that's Chris DiGarmo backing him on the chorus. DiGarmo and Michael Wilton are incredible together.
His vocals super clean
So great to see you discovering some of the magic of 80s metal w more Queensryche!
He did NOT destroy his voice.

Before Queensryche, Geoff Tate was an Opera Singer!!!
He still sounds good.
I concur on "he didn't destroy his voice", if anything his voice has matured. He was incredible during his Big Rock Tour!
The guitar duet, Chris and Michael pull off very well live. The whole band just meshed together extremely well.
Someone who is coming out of sedation doesn't have much diction .... it's slurred with blurry vision. Epic Album ... you can feel what the character is feeling.

Silence says it all..🤣🤣
I saw Queensryche twice. A tighter band you will never find. I used to work at the old Cleveland Coliseum. I've seen hundreds of shows. They crushed it.

saw him live less than a year ago, and his voice was not destroyed at all, its still killer
That was the shorter version. Album version has epic outro
It funny that you are doing this reation today. This album debuted May 2nd in 1988. Walk in the shadows is one of my favorite songs. The man was unbelievable.
Suite Sister Mary - from the same album. Epic!
Awesome! Thank you Chase, and Maggie! so glad you did more off this historical LP, and pray you do more of it, and continue the story from it.

Yes he is in his 60's he is still the goat but time waits for no one
Mindcrime is one of the greatest albums Queensryche ever made, I know the combos were put on Mindcrime 2, I decided to listen to it tonight, it has to be at least a #2, thanks for the suggestion.
Listen to Anybody Listening off of the Empire album, his voice is like butter. Smoother than in any of these beautiful songs.
Back again. If I post something too long, it won't post, so now to YOUR REACTION:
I LOVE how you hear and point out little details about not just the singing, but other elements of the music and musicianship! It's very satisfying how enthusiastic you are too,!
I hope you'll consider doing more Queensryche!
"ROADS TO MADNESS" is an early song of their's that's rather epic too. It's about 10" long, and the very last line ( don't sneak ahead and listen to it out of sequence), but Geoff is the most EXPRESSIVE I've ever heard him on this song.
