97X Green Room - Shinedown (Fly From The Inside)

[@kustomhooligans]

I've ran the sound board at one of America's best hard rock clubs, including for Shinedown's first major US tour l, so I've seen thousands of shows and bands Brent always floors me acoustically, especially with Fly from the inside, definitely not an easy song to pull off, even if it is your song! Phenomenal job fellas!

[@glenbishop9465]

It's funny I usually don't comment on videos because its a bunch of he said she said bull. But if you really listen to music there are two types of singers/bands/artists. Ones that sound good on cd where everything is produced and mixed and cleaned up like most pop singers or teen pop. Then you have singers like Brent Smith who sound great on cd, but can stomp on just about any other singer acoustically. That's what makes them so great they don't need mixing and producing to sound amazing... His pure heart and talent show threw when he sings even more so when its acoustic because its so raw. Thats my two cents....

[@JacobAvnerPr1mus3]

Have you seen there Kansas City acoustic show? That was amazing to watch. I liked that he changed up his voice a bit, like he went lower than the album during the chorus of if you only knew, and does an awesome job with Devour.

[@glenbishop9465]

Jacob Avner Yea I've seen a few clips of it, wished I could have been there. Sounds amazing. But pretty much anything they do sounds great haha

[@BenCricket2004]

+Glen Bishop Spot on! Certainly one of the top vocalist out there, like you said Shinedown are great, but Brent singing with acoustic is amazing, Simple man is one of my fave songs of all time

[@stacyrussell460]

You are 1,000% percent correct. Most other bands can't hold a candle to Brent Smith's kickass vocals. The range he has & his passion for the words is pure bliss. Live or studio recorded... Brent's talent has been so far unmatched in my eyes.

[@rener7324]

💯💯💯

[@puckdropper27]

you can really tell how solid a band is when they go acoustic... these guys are fucking solid through and through!!!

[@chris85mora]

Pretty damn good for a live performance, not many artists sound this good live.

[@WarGhostsquad]

Good old classic shine down

[@addisonshinedown]

I have never heard a better live male ROCK singer, there are better, but nobody sings rock like Brent Smith, he is as close to perfection for rock as you can get, and Shinedown ROCKS!!! I have seen them live, they are amazing, almost better than the albums... SHINEDOWN ROCKS!

[@alfonsbeirshlychho]

🤘! Please 🙏 Comeback "Jasin Todd" Without You Shinedown cannot shine it any more..

[@WarGhostsquad]

[@WidZRocK]

[@sweetc05]

Awesome 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

[@jcksnguitarkingv]

Awesome- him and Jasin are SO talented and underrated musicians…

[@breakmyselfJNH]

WOW ... These at Download Festival ... at the front barrier i was so close and they were perfect ... like goosbumps all the way thru their set ... Love them ... Just amazing ... DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL 09 ... LEGEND!

[@MissMisery123]

so amazing.....

[@RunFromTha401]

cant believe i found this.....i was late to work because they played this during the morning commute and i couldnt turn the car off until it was over..... got a warning for being 20 minutes late but so worth it.miss 97x green rooms since i moved

[@nattalie74]

I love this video of Brent Smith.He is the best & the greatest singer in the world.He also has the best voice ever.Zebrina

[@bigddetroit]

exactly thats what makes this a great band

[@MaxDvorakAcoustic]

gonna see these guys september 14th

[@johnharris260]

Fucking awesome!!!

[@Moistwafflez]

really good

[@gh3jglosser]

i listen to this every time im nervous and then im not nervous anymore

[@VTiredIron]

Here's the breakdown in response to BadAndy's question. I had some time on my hands and figured I'd help out. He goes flat at least a half step at the following points... 0:36, 0:47, 0:52, 1:27, 1:34, 1:37, 2:10, 2:16, 2:28, 2:35, 2:38, 3:18, 3:28, 3:39, 3:59...and that's being conservative. And if Bad Andy asks, you can tell him that this information did come from a vocal coach with Certified Perfect Pitch... i.e. you can tune a piano to my voice.

[@gooseghazi]

shizzlefoot post singing videos please. Had throat surgery and scarred my speaking voice. Teaching myself singing exercises has helped my voice normalize ...and now a video of u teaching us his technique would be great!!! PLEASE!

[@rantanen1]

excelent.

[@FrozenBrownies]

best vocals ever

[@tonycederholm]

you wont be dissapointed, I saw them in January. You are gonna get insane! (in a good way) :p

[@DTigers24]

Brent's not the only remaining member. Barry, the drummer, was there in the beginning.

[@ChrystalMahan]

Back then Brent was high on oxycotin and cocain, as well as as much booze as one could tolerate. Now, he has been clean and sober for 3 years, thanks to the birth of his son. If you were a real Shinedown fan you would know this as he talking about it with an open heart. I think the music has evolved just as he has. His songs are about life, his and others. His words are not always what they seem to be, often a metaphor. His voice is better than ever!

[@tuancse]

wow, he plays guitar awesome!

[@WarGhostsquad]

isnt it better than new shinedown

[@IrvSauce]

I love Jasin and miss him. I still follow him and await the day he joins a band again. I'm a hardcore Shinedown fan and I'll be the first to admit, Brent needs professional vocal training. He has a very hard time staying in key. But he is a great big ball of emotion, so it just comes out. I don't have a problem with that.

[@thezombros2607]

I think he’s a better vocalist now

[@michaetsully87]

Ah his vocals are unbelievable

[@mikEzShinoda]

Jasin todd has the best strumming technique i have ever seen

[@shreddlearner]

its the weight of the world on my shoulders yea i yeahhh that rocks

[@evanrosenthal]

@BDogGrizzly , you are wrong. Barry Kirsch is an original band member.

[@RyanMartinMusic]

3.26 guitarist smiling at Brents amazing vocals! :)

[@WarGhostsquad]

"jasontodd"

[@DaDudeManHeyDude]

Neva saw him with a beard before. Crazy.

[@WarGhostsquad]

new shinedown v.s old shinedown hands down 2020

[@thezombros2607]

They’re new single just came out and I think it’s awesome it’s a lot heavier than the rest of they’re recent stuff

[@WarGhostsquad]

@@thezombros2607 don't wanna know about his crap

[@maryhelenbuchele7342]

If you don't want to know about Shinedown that just stop commenting on there stuff. Don't you understand if Jasin would have stayed they would have hurt each other with physical fighting or possibly Brent might have gotten back on drugs would you want that he could have died, because I don't think Jasin would have wanted that now that he is sober.

[@StoriesofBryen]

@brockwest42 yeah i saw them in august with chevelle. best show ever

[@Jessica_Jones88]

Such a fucking shredder!

[@Quasari001]

O_O holy freakin crap hes good

[@mylesraymond7364]

So many new rock singers make this mistake-they write these impossible to sing songs which sound awesome at first, but after performing them 300 times you start sounding like this dude.

[@username102030405]

depends what clip you see him on. check out myles kennedy of alter bridge, he hits all his notes live

[@12AustinJohnson12]

@brockwest42 i just saw them about three or four weeks ago. they were good. which shocks me after seeing this before i thought shinedown was any good, haha. a lot of people were jumping and singing along, but it wasn't too crazy.

[@benwhyme]

going through this the 3rd time, i see what you mean about it, both ways he sounds good.

[@nickybjammin7629]

Damn….where’s my record deal at?

[@Lilliemarie10]

What guitar is he using anyone know!

[@LeLeMooD]

Just because he is not singing the way it is on your mp3 doesn't mean it's shitty.

[@Crankinthe90s]

its a style of how he performs....not a problem

[@harvickfan82479]

@TravisSkateFlip one of the best voices in rock

[@RLAMultimedia]

Are you deaf? He sounds fine. Better than most people when they do acoustic gigs.

[@seannmaidment12]

well i wish i could sing like that

[@bwioiw]

Why does he sing soooo much better with a beardstache? He should definitely grow it out again.

[@username102030405]

its coming, you just wait ;)

[@rollinghost]

they have an original vid. It was pulled from ytube for some reason. Anyway May 9th bitches! :~)~~

[@Mr_Ronok]

why does everyone keep saying they suck here, they sound fuckin great for 2 people

[@kingofscottsdale]

@shizzlefoot You're totally right he's completely flat. Nobody is saying he's a bad singer or that the band sucks just that he's flat. It happens sometimes.

[@GilbertFan101]

He's an amazing singer. One of my favorites... But does anyone else notice how often he gets under pitch.

[@dadedraak]

When God and Jesus play together this is what you get...

[@SparmanT]

mans a great guitarist, barely tell hes switching notes at a constant pace.

[@erikjanthes]

Survive

[@lankydude1000]

@MrMusikman24 lmao he does indeed :D

[@addisonshinedown]

I don't see why people even think he sounds bad! and the guitar, NOT FLAT WHY DO U THINK THAT!? it's just that the bass isn't there, and so it sounds different.

[@shelton701]

lol yeah i realized that after i typed it

[@SoundofMadness15]

@BDogGrizzly what about barry kerch? you might want to check your facts bro. How can you be disappointed in who they have become? Sound of madness went platinum. yupp thats really something to be disappointed about...

[@dirkflint]

@okirishchik word!!

[@needcee]

Dudes i was being sarcastic.... a negative response towards JKKillerB.... i guess i can't really express that through simple text though :)

[@helloitsokay]

You mean he's God ;)

[@ruggyrugg0]

he may be out of tune but he can probably play guitar a hell of alot better than us

[@neoshaolin1]

Dude he needs a break the constant touring is really doing a number on his voice he's usually kick ass.

[@Jrolandbarnes]

@MrMusikman24 Well god is singing.

[@lavishyok]

Lol looks just like dude from seether with the beard 😂😂

[@ondessonk250]

good song! 2:24, his eyes lol

[@mikEzShinoda]

I think it's Taylor big baby

[@dan6938s]

Heres the weight of the world on my shoulders .....

[@DeluxeTwinkies]

@MrMusikman24 Of course he can, HE'S JESUS!!

[@SamZillayo]

aw he looks nervous but still good

[@JackStreicher]

@MrMusikman24 Jesus is alive! And he rocks!! :D

[@SparkysGarage]

Jesus x2?

[@reklaw8027]

he couldnt find key for the entire song in my opinion, he’s had better performances for sure

[@bestmalevocalist]

Brent can't always sing as high as he does in the recording, it takes a lot out of you physically, and its an acoustic version many artists bring it down in pitch. It was pitchy, but he might of been in the midst of decided what he was going to do with it and flopped .

[@scotVictor]

Wow what happened to your voice....Its been gone since you sang Simple man

[@sinister638]

dude atlest shinedown is better live then disturbed i mean he can't hit any of the note's but yet it still sond's good why is that?¿

[@hate2love3434]

im srry you cant blame the guitar for his singing i play guitar and to me the guitar sounds fine

[@iTedd98]

Many artists eventually go main stream, it happen, and we all know it but refuse to believe it'll happen. Anyway, Shinedown is still badass, better than what Metallica has become now.

[@tara37830]

This is Shinedown..... The stuff they do now is so horrible >< I miss Brents wonderful voice( I mean yeah he sings on the new stuff but listen to them back to back, they edit his voice and it makes me sad) I saw them in concert in knoxville and it was awesome ( I got to Bash buckcherry to the Lead singer and some other band member) I dislike the singer of buck cherry ..... but i still like the old shinedown

[@maryhelenbuchele7342]

They just do normal studio editing he changes his voice and the way he sings for different songs. The man can sing anything as he has proved with the acoustic covers.

[@fumado2000]

@MrMusikman24 Jesus Wish he was Jasin

[@taluz07]

the title is not shinedown its ''shamedown''

[@ouynem]

no disrespect but..,dude how could u say that he's flat?maybe u can sing well,but howcome he's more renown that you are?...i guess that's says it all don't it?...

[@VTiredIron]

Wow...Zach needs to invest in an electronic tuner. The ear tuning just isn't working for him. And Brent, apparently, needs some headphone monitors or something. You're a tad flat, my friend. Awesome song though.

[@dawgyv72]

haha, you have no idea what you are talking about? singing in wrong tunes? you're not even using the right terminology. He's singing perfectly fine.

[@stevebannon1804]

dawgyv72 no he’s not actually and I’m a big shinedown fan haha it’s what happens when you’re young and have a fresh voice and put out a record where you’re absolutely belting it... 5-6 years down the road after heavy touring you’re not gonna be able to sing the shit you released in your 20’s with a fresh voice

[@Dudelookslikeeylady]

lol are you serious? Never seen anyone and I mean anyone in my entire life with this much voice control as Brent has. Do u think its easy to tour 365 days a year and sing songs without having days when your troath gets soar and tired? Ever tried singin songs like save me or fly from the inside? Not many people can pull it off. and it does take a toll on your voice. Mabye this wasent his best preformance but a helluva lot better then anyone else would have been able to sing it!

[@bereberebere1995]

@MrMusikman24 i quess that jesus loves rock:D

[@westpsmity]

THIS is the Shinedown I love, I just saw them last week, and something's just different about them now. They've (or I should say Brent, the only remaining original member) have lost the grungy, southern rock look and tried to modernize somewhat. There's just something not the same anymore... Plus he's a heck of a lot fatter now than he was here

[@nyjbarnes]

I still think the guitar is being played out of tune, whether not tuned properly or technique. It sounds out of tune. Also, the harmonies aren't there which he could be trying to compensate for on the chorus. That's a mistake, but whatever. I still like the song. I don't expect shit to be perfect; that's what record companies have sold you. Perfection is not real music that's produced. I like it raw.

[@JKKillerB]

Just shows that ALL singers owe it ALL to their sound mixers, huh? Good job, but w/o the mixing it sux... Have a GREAT day !!!!

[@jaydogg408]

@MrMusikman24 Jesus invented the guitar solo but Satan made it rock.

[@KonnerScottMusic]

he sings flat live.

[@stacyrussell460]

Are you watching the same video I am? Because Brent's vocal range is perfect. Cheers!!

[@lvl3472]

this was probaly early in the AM and he didnt have a long day of warmup practice for it after all its just for a radio station not a giant stadium live nd stuff just radio

[@TheBananamanAssassin]

@mrgungho Troll harder

[@BiLLz66614]

LMAO

[@juganer123]

he didnt do too bad though...

[@xDEADIRISHMANx]

Thats just mean calling him fat.........he probably prefers big-boned.

[@IThinkWereParkedMan0]

This is depressing.

[@westpsmity]

Brent needs to drop some weight and get a beard again, he looks 100x better here than he does right now.
