  • **For more detailed analysis, visit therangeplanet.proboards.com/... **
    Known as the frontman of Blind Guardian and Demons & Wizards, and alleged ruler of Germany, Hansi possesses a preternaturally powerful voice, showcased in his early years by an unrelentingly raw attack. In the late 90s he developed a headier, more melodic technique, but has proved capable of utilizing both extremes throughout the years.
    Perhaps Hansi's most defining characteristic as a vocalist is his intricate use of vocal layering to replicate the sound of a choir, where he uses different techniques (both rough and clean) to create a variety of different textures.

      @@zorland876 that’s normal for someone his age, and it’s also normal for the fact that he spent many years of his life using raspy voice and growling. I’ve noticed that even his normal speaking voice is raspy and less powerful than it was before. Both age and constant screaming took a toll on him.

    • @zorland876
      @zorland876  3 года назад +4

      @@changes4818 Oh yeah definitely. It's the same reason he really has never been much of a live singer, because to sing his style constantly would just be unsustainable, and you can hear times in the past when he clearly becomes very nervous and barely sings at all. His power definitely came with a cost.

    Wait For An Answer (from album A Night At The Opera) is at timestamp 4:29. The video includes a good segment of the song, but ideally should continue through the next few stanzas as well. Turn up the volume. Also, the song And Then There Was Silence is at 5:45.
    You are welcome. All the songs are good, but those are particularly wonderful.

    Ok, I know nothing about "music." What does it mean when the letter/numbers are white vs empty? What do the numbers and little b's mean? What does # mean?

    • @amandarahardjo4461
      @amandarahardjo4461 3 года назад +17

      I'm not an expert but I'll do my best:
      - A change from empty to white means he's currently singing that note, I believe, since he's not staying on a single note for the whole clip
      - Numbers indicate the octave -- 2 for instance means he's singing at a very low register, while 5 is very high
      - "b"s ("flats") and "#"s ("sharps") mean he's going either half a 'step' down or up respectively from the "letter" indicated (if you imagine piano keys, the "letters" (E, F, G, etc.) are the white keys, while "b" and "#" means he's singing a note corresponding to the black key to the left or right of that white key. So you can imagine an F# for example sounds halfway between an F and a G
      Hope that helps!
