This singing is tolerable. Most of his recent stuff is beyond awful.

he really turned the song into something new! it's better to revamp it than try to hit notes you cant do. Totally loved this, yet still loving the album version :)

Yeah overall sound and performance is great. Unfortunately Dokken cannot sing more than this, still he did fine job in keeping his voice in tune with the melody.

I LOVE Dokken! I adore Don, his voice was the sweetest thing I’d ever heard. I don’t want to remember him sounding like this!

This is awesome! Definitely my favorite of the A Nightmare on Elm Street film, too. This is a fantastic live performance.

Verdade

[@ianmccown]

Well some are! Steven Tyler is older than Don Dokken, or Bon Jovi, who both struggle rn, and Steven can so far nail vocals. Same with Mick Jagger who is 1,099 years old, and Paul McCartney. Even most shocking… Vince Neils vocals have gotten better since losing weight! Crazy thing to think Vince Neil beats so many in 2023.

He said in the Never Sleep Again documentary that he couldn't do the high notes in this song anymore, but this wasn't bad at all. Made it a bit more somber.

Xibalba Monster keep in mind, this is barely live at all. This is totally studio tracked. Jeff Pilson carries the high notes in the chorus

@@logandumont I thought it looked a little out of sync. I guess that makes sense then.

Don Dokken had stomach cancer and vocal chord surgery. For the people that mock him, I would mention you, but nobody knows who you are.

Guys, this version although due to Dons unfortunate circumstances, his voice is AMAZING this low. This version rocks! And that bass player is SO TALENTED ITS STUPID. The drummer sounds so SOLID and HEAVY. And george besides his overflowing cup of talent has his sound E FREAKING QUED

Don never had a powerful voice to begin with so it's really a surprise that he neglected his cords. This happened way too often in the industry.

Oh yes, this song the video, studio, yes it's great. But I don't know your definition of powerful.

[@rogersanderscustoms8121]

@@redskydeltaechoredskyover1192 Don's voice always stayed light, he always used his head vocals instead of his chest. He certainly didn't have a typical hard rock/heavy metal voice. George Lynch gave the only reason Dokken could call themselves Glam Metal to begin with. IMHO Don would have been better in a pop music setting along with groups like Air Supply and The Alan Parsons Project. I think I would have respected him more. I realize it's all subjective and I have total respect for Dokken fans who might disagree.
