When i first heard the album version, i said " there is no way he could ever sing that song live". When i first saw this performance, I realized that I knew absolutely nothing.
Absolutely agree ! And there are a bunch of Hard Rock/Metal Singers and Bands where you think it's just noise and they never can do studio quality on stage .... but they can ! Some of the greatest solo acts of today can only dream of that kind of performing quality like Steelheart .... or Winger .... or Giant ..... or some others
Honestly this guy has an incredible voice in the studio as well as live: clear, high, powerful, managing to push as high and perfectly as on a single, this guy is a living god, I'm in awe, well done
He lost a lot of time to the head injury (poorly diagnosed and treated) he sustained on Halloween night 1992 in Denver. He tried to climb a light tower. It broke loose and came down on his head driving his face into the stage. He had a lot of memory loss and spent several years literally dazed and confused. The incident broke up Steelheart's original lineup, otherwise they would have been HUGE!!!
It's because their first album was in late 1990. That's when this kinda music began a downhill... only bands to have any kind of success by 93 were mega names like Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Poison. Still by 1994 this kinda music was gone completely, it was taboo to even say you liked it. If a band didn't change, they were left in the cold. Honestly, I could name off a laundry list of killer songs and bands in 1991-1993 in this genre that was gone unnoticed but honestly were at the peak of musical pentacle within this "hair meta;" genre for technicality and musicianship. Off top of my head Tyketto - Forever Young would have been a smash hit in 1987 and the same for Baton Rouge - Walks Like A Woman.
We who came up in the late80's hearing from bands LIVE in person without auto tune Just voices.. human intriments and the other ones played knew the difference What a Blessing we haf!!! 🎸🛢️🥁
Jan 5, 2025. Here I am. Listening. Missing. Everyone says .... 'one' of the greatest vocalists. I disagree. He 'IS' the greatest male vocalist of rock - EVER ! Who is better ? NO ONE from the greatest hair bands of the day can hit those notes. Live. Not in the studio. LIVE. Take care everyone.
Excuse me while I pick my jaw up off the floor! Only he and his voice can give me chills while having a hot flash! That voice and talent...otherworldly! Thank you Miljenko for blessing this world with your God-given talent.
Pay attention "artists" of today: THIS is pure, God-given talent. No AutoTune needed. I don't think even Mariah Carey can hit these notes. Only thing that bugs me is the band is bit too loud. These guys could hold their own and then some with the best bands of this era and were poised for superstardom when Matijevic was tragically injured and spent years recovering. Glad to know he is still making music.
A Steelheart la primera vez que los escuche fue en el año 1992 y justo con este tema en MTV y me voló la cabeza hoy en día año 2023 lo sigo escuchando como aquella primera vez.
Yeah, if Steelheart had been founded just a couple years earlier Mili would be a household name here in America,(He is in parts of Asia). . Untouchable vocal range and talent.
Eu ouço rock and roll desde os meus 12 anos, hoje tenho 55, já ouvi centenas de canções e grandes cantores, mas quando ouvi Steelheart pela primeira vez eu não acreditei que o vocalista conseguia segurar uma nota tão alta por tanto tempo. Posso afirmar que Miljenko Matijevic é um dos maiores vocalistas de rock de todos os tempos, pois poucos conseguem fazer ao vivo o que gravaram em estúdio, esse cara é simplesmente um MONSTRO!!!!!!
"Artists of today" take notice of this. This is RAW, PURE talent. No butt showing, no sex involved, definately no foul language involved. Something you "Artists of today" will never attain. You're Welcome!!
Wow. What a voice! My dad showed me this growing up ( 26 now) and it never gets old. No man sings like this anymore, no music sounds like this. Sure wish it did.
He still sings like this, some 30+ years later Check it out Only a few years ago, hes still got it! Steelheart - "I'll Never Let You Go" (Official Live Video) ruclips.net/video/PE6NoZLwZAo/видео.html And, there's newer version with his daughter accompanying him, it's out of the park!
Maaaannnnn... this guy is something else. Recording is a hard thing, but live is probably 10x harder, especially with this octave. Maaaann oh man. Amazing dude.
Only a few years ago, he's still got it! Steelheart - "I'll Never Let You Go" (Official Live Video) ruclips.net/video/PE6NoZLwZAo/видео.html And, there's a newer version with his daughter accompanying him, it's out of the park!
I saw Steelheart and Lynch Mob at Bangels in Denver back in the day, you couldnt get a much better concert than that. They play instruments and can really sing! pure talent!
Colnando Well I know my singers as well, but everyone has their opinion on who is the best. And you know what they say about opinions , it's like an ass hole, everyone has got one.
The biggest challenge for a vocalist like this, is to pull it off live. Especially with high pitched vocals like that. But this guy does it beautifully. Absolutely amazing. Just a bit of trivia for you all - his name is Miljenko Matijevic ;-)
Awsome range.He is the master of a dying art... \m/ I was'nt a huge fan of the 80's ballads during the 80's. Looking back at those times,now I realize,Some of those songs are really good. Most of today's music does'nt even come close to having as much talent,emotion,or meaning.
Yes. You said he can't sing that way anymore. Jist wondering if you think that cause he is 30 yrs older now or because he MIGHT have blown his voice by NOT lip syncing. You tell me.
That Awww! No! NO! NAWWWWWW!!!! Oh boys, no that voice. My favourite singer. Today 2024, no one have this vocal. If there is one he doesn't have the control.
Iv'e seen the studio version video of this song many times. First time I have seen this live performance. Ummm let me say, HOLY SHIT ! My god, what a voice !!!
The future generations will never know about this raw talent! They only know justin Bieber but dont know who he milli They really missed a legendary part of their lives....
I miss this era. Whenever there's an Oldschool METAL band performing on TV. I'm always excited to watch these on TV when I was in highschool. Hair METAL is d genre I worshipped in to. Since highschool. \m/ :))
Greatest "rock arena" singer ever
so true
When i first heard the album version, i said " there is no way he could ever sing that song live". When i first saw this performance, I realized that I knew absolutely nothing.
Absolutely agree ! And there are a bunch of Hard Rock/Metal Singers and Bands where you think it's just noise and they never can do studio quality on stage .... but they can ! Some of the greatest solo acts of today can only dream of that kind of performing quality like Steelheart .... or Winger .... or Giant ..... or some others
One of the most underrated vocalists ever
underrated meneh, lagi lagi underrated. underrock nutupi raimu kuwi lho. raimu pasaran gak?🎉😂❤
I hope everyone realizes how hard it is to sound that good live. Raw talent
Nightwish… 2013 or newer.. Better live..
Raw talent? Did you mean this?? ruclips.net/video/pU6AJMqEPW0/видео.html
Haha you know its mostly only deeply enthusiastic musician types that realize that xD
@@zxcvbnm5758 lol not even close .
m.ruclips.net/video/cF1nHuTgl58/видео.html
when you're as good live as you are in the studio - that's a real musician
Gary Davenport If the artist doesn't sound better in person, or if they 'don't sound as good as the album', the album would definitely be artificial.
Anyone can be musician what differs is the talent that he has, the gift, the voice.
Reminds me of Steve Perry with how good he sounds live like the studio
Vince Neil needs to see this
@@thesundog8833 that's a great point, thanks!
This guy has the most "Awesome " voice of all rock singers.
@FatalPies fuck off idiot
@FatalPies stop hating . Stop comparing . Just admit this guys is awesome .
@FatalPies you got that right!! GT is in his own league
Easily one of the greatest rock singers of all time
It's gotta be one of the top vocals ever, and I mean EVER!
This dude has one of the strongest voices ever.
Honestly this guy has an incredible voice in the studio as well as live: clear, high, powerful, managing to push as high and perfectly as on a single, this guy is a living god, I'm in awe, well done
Yes but singing live is a much better test to see just how well he can sing.
One of the greatest vocals of all time
Who's listening here June 2020. I love this song I'll never let you go and She's Gone. Steelheart Miljenko Matijivec vocalist forever
m.ruclips.net/video/cF1nHuTgl58/видео.html
This guy is amazing!
Listening in 2023
I'll never let this song go. Until now 2023 still listening ❤
2024 and still rocking
Honestly now, Has any other singer been close to this? Even today, Miljenko can hit these notes. Amazing
I've overlooked this song for years. Damn!! It kicks ass!!
Steelheart - "I'll Never Let You Go" (Official Live Video) ruclips.net/video/PE6NoZLwZAo/видео.html
One of the best underrated vocals out there ! Should have been much bigger than he was!
He lost a lot of time to the head injury (poorly diagnosed and treated) he sustained on Halloween night 1992 in Denver. He tried to climb a light tower. It broke loose and came down on his head driving his face into the stage. He had a lot of memory loss and spent several years literally dazed and confused.

What underrated?? He is the best stupif
@@mattmendoza2667 meaning he wasn’t as big as he should have been ….his vocals are amazing and not many people have know of him…stupid
How was this ever underrated????
We who came up in the late80's hearing from bands LIVE
in person without auto tune
Just voices.. human intriments and the other ones played
knew the difference
What a Blessing we haf!!!
🎸🛢️🥁
If you couldn't sing as well Or actually better LIVE then nobody would pay to see you!!
Holy christ he doesn't just pull it off live. He slays it!
Man I miss this type of music. Hair Bands rule.
This song sums up my feelings for my wife of 20 years this year. When I first met her, I swear this song played out of thin air! 💍 ❤️
Jan 5, 2025. Here I am. Listening. Missing. Everyone says .... 'one' of the greatest vocalists. I disagree. He 'IS' the greatest male vocalist of rock - EVER ! Who is better ? NO ONE from the greatest hair bands of the day can hit those notes. Live. Not in the studio. LIVE. Take care everyone.
His range is absolutely insane.
Excuse me while I pick my jaw up off the floor! Only he and his voice can give me chills while having a hot flash! That voice and talent...otherworldly! Thank you Miljenko for blessing this world with your God-given talent.
Omg I love this he has been blessed with such a beautiful voice
Damn!! One of the greatest singers/vocalists to EVER grace the stage. Shatter glass my ass...this muthafucr could crack the moon!!!
.
Speechless
@FatalPies Love Tate, but no.
I'm here in 2024. Underrated is an understatement.
This song is so underrated!!! This song is incredible!!!
Michael Matejevic has the best vocals in the music business. He can hit those high notes.
ruclips.net/video/CC0EJpUq-Os/видео.html ruclips.net/video/1G-J6MyOW9w/видео.html
At least get his name right dude. Fucks sake.
Pay attention "artists" of today: THIS is pure, God-given talent. No AutoTune needed. I don't think even Mariah Carey can hit these notes. Only thing that bugs me is the band is bit too loud. These guys could hold their own and then some with the best bands of this era and were poised for superstardom when Matijevic was tragically injured and spent years recovering. Glad to know he is still making music.
And that gifted drummer Jim Fowler (former "Rage of Angels" '80's Christian metal band RIP) passed away too
@@rogerjones6033 I didn't know he had passed.
nah mariah carey is 2 ocatves higher
No way she would belt them like he belts lol ...@@reminotait6357
Too bad only very few people know about this hidden gem 🙌
Let's keep it that way
A Steelheart la primera vez que los escuche fue en el año 1992 y justo con este tema en MTV y me voló la cabeza hoy en día año 2023 lo sigo escuchando como aquella primera vez.
This guy has some f*ing voice 🔥 ❤
I'm 50 years old now. And. So is he. But this MAN IS STILL the most BEAUTIFUL MAN alive
he's absolutely gorgeous.
EL 30 DE NOVIEMBRE CUMPLE 59 AÑOS Y SIGUE CANTANDO CON TODO SU POTENCIAL DE SU JUVENTUD 🙏🙏🙏🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷ARGENTINA ❤
You wrote this 3 years ago, he's 59 in 2024 his birthday is November 30th he'll be 60.
Yeah, if Steelheart had been founded just a couple years earlier Mili would be a household name here in America,(He is in parts of Asia). . Untouchable vocal range and talent.
I agree with you 110%...too late in the game unfortunately. Hate grunge music...ruined everything.
barbwire1269
Amen to that.
Go listen to Sticky by Steel heart and you see that song is a grunge song
Daniel Wood that sounds nothing like grunge.
Daniel Wood if you are Danny Wood from New Kids on the Block, hello.
This song is a guilty pleasure for me...cheesy lyrics but fantastic performance and a voice I could only dream of having.
This is what I imagine what angels singing in heaven sound like. Pure chills down your spine...

Love Steelheart! Seeing them in August. A road trip to the 80's
Wow. What a voice! My dad showed me this growing up ( 26 now) and it never gets old. No man sings like this anymore, no music sounds like this. Sure wish it did.

Hi, do you still have the ticket stub, flyer of that show or any other type of memorabilia?
Omg his voice is amazing. Besides that he's gorgeous ❤❤❤❤❤
That freaking voice!!! 😳 Just wow
Best singer ever that's from my country. And arguably best singer or at least top 5 ever!
Colnando Well I know my singers as well, but everyone has their opinion on who is the best. And you know what they say about opinions , it's like an ass hole, everyone has got one.
cra zy best ever on this planet
From Croatia? Homie this guy is the best from all countries!
maute report
the mytical voice in the planet earth. no one can beat...........
The first time I heard this song I was floored. Miljenko Matijevic is so damn underrated it's a travesty. He is one of a kind!
His voice is amazing....one of my favorite songs of all time.
Not only could he sing beautifully back then, but he was also very good looking.
The biggest challenge for a vocalist like this, is to pull it off live. Especially with high pitched vocals like that. But this guy does it beautifully. Absolutely amazing. Just a bit of trivia for you all - his name is Miljenko Matijevic ;-)
see Nightwish Wacken 2013- Ghost Love Score( ending)..
No trivia have always knew he's name. 😅 Best singer of all time! 👍
m.ruclips.net/video/cF1nHuTgl58/видео.html
Hands down best male rock vocals to walk earth
I've always loved this song❤😊
Awsome range.He is the master of a dying art... \m/ I was'nt a huge fan of the 80's ballads during the 80's. Looking back at those times,now I realize,Some of those songs are really good. Most of today's music does'nt even come close to having as much talent,emotion,or meaning.
OMG What a set of pipes beautiful voice 💜💜
Was & still is one of the greatest voices ever! It's just too bad the WORLD wasn't filled in:(
Immortal voice
No one can duplicate
I can sing like that but he's the king of all kings in rock.
Voice straight from Heaven! Thank you God for this man's voice! Incredible gift! Can't believe how incredible MIli sings!
Always Luv Gin....Farmer!
Damn he's good live. Holy shit.
Straight brought it!
KNERD could you EVER?
KNERD Is there an age limit?
Yes. You said he can't sing that way anymore. Jist wondering if you think that cause he is 30 yrs older now or because he MIGHT have blown his voice by NOT lip syncing. You tell me.
KNERD but does the coach perform week in week out like Miljenko? That could be one of the factors.
The greatest rock vocalist of all time!
That Awww! No! NO! NAWWWWWW!!!! Oh boys, no that voice. My favourite singer. Today 2024, no one have this vocal. If there is one he doesn't have the control.
Si SALIO EL ALBUN EN LOS 90 PERO LA BANDA TOCABAN DESDE QUE IBAN A.LA ESCUELA Y NO SE LES ABRIA NINGUNA PUERTA DE LOS 70 / 80 FUE EL FUROR DEL ROCK
This man. Needs to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. Don't chat if you need gift cards
Best rock vocal of all time!
one of the few that is as good live as in studio. His pitch is amazing...
Cara como é difícil cantar desse jeito ao vivo! Perfeito ❤❤
One of my favourite songs.Powerful voice,good band.

His singing just gives me chills. Such a fantastic singer.
Mind blowing. There’s the proof to all the doubters.

Holy shhht, amazing!
Still and always be a legend. Love your work ❤
Thank you for your beautiful voice ❤️
One of the best hard rock singers definitely
WOWEEEEE!!! Great performance, chills up the spine!!
It’s unfortunate that the guitar community doesn’t know who the guitarist are. They are spot-on and amazing sound.
I remember Chris Rissola on first guitar.
This performance melts my face off
The future generations will never know about this raw talent!
They only know justin Bieber but dont know who he milli
They really missed a legendary part of their lives....
I miss this era. Whenever there's an Oldschool METAL band performing on TV. I'm always excited to watch these on TV when I was in highschool. Hair METAL is d genre I worshipped in to. Since highschool. \m/ :))
