Take Hold of the Flame live to hear the other part of his voice.

[@PK--ITA]

Yep, a good one 👍

[@Jason-Taylor]

Yes, an absolute must for a full taste of Geoff’s range plus he’s doing it live.

[@raulvargas5827]

Yes please, Take hold of the flame so we can listen to his other half of vocal range

[@toolsx1105]

what they said

[@ambassadortourettes753]

Yeah you need to do this!!!

[@pcouto19]

Take 'hold of the flame' in Tokyo will show you a whole other side of his voice.

[@zackkullis5555]

Yes, the Live in Tokyo is a must

[@the-dave-house-project]

Backing up this one. Don't make the mistake of avoiding the live in Tokyo 84.

[@flyingardilla143]

Back then, incredible songs like this were coming out all the time. We had no clue how lucky we were.

[@ThelSuperlKing]

But we all had to pay money for it. Now everything is free crap or no crap.

[@Bozitsar1]

Thanks! Next will be “Hold of the Flame” live… 🤘

[@RolandMcKenney]

You should absolutely follow up with Take Hold of the Flame [Queensrÿche - Live in Tokyo 1984/08/05] to hear Geoff's full range.

[@pdmanfarm3520]

One of the most gorgeous songs from the Rock world - ever.

[@lazarusblack9995]

The guitarist Chris Degarmo wrote this for his son who was having nightmares.

[@bjornbear6856]

Geoff has a very dark speaking voice. The first verse is very close to his normal voice. And then he just goes up from there! One of the best rock voices of all time. I also love the chorus voices. They start in harmony and splits with one going up, and the other going down. Be safe

[@SigurdJarlson]

"Eye's of a Stranger" or anything from the album "Operation:Mindcrime" would be a great folow up!

[@trokoshea1]

I'd say "Speak", just for the spoken parts.

[@desmit6]

Followers who recommend Silent Lucidity first to vocal channels know exactly what they’re setting her up for…and that is correct

[@jimspetdragons3737]

Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo 1984 is the best live version. Studio is also great. Great song on the other spectrum of Geoff's voice. Love to hear it. It sticks w/ you.

[@KyleS.1987]

Geoff Tate in his prime had such incredible range and beautiful tone. It's awesome that you noticed the strings - they were arranged by the late, great Michael Kamen. Thanks for checking out some Queensryche!

[@russellward4624]

I believe he had a 4 octave range.

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Ah thank you for the information ☺️

[@fpcardosao]

The strings at the end plays the Brahms Lullaby. Amazing song

[@CesarMontecristo]

The geniuses of their music genre. Queensryche’s music will stand the test of time, like all great bands/artists. The best orchestration in any rock/metal song ever. Hauntingly beautiful!

[@TheRahvyn]

Fun note is that Empire, the album this is from, was produced to be listened to with headphones which is why there are those fun auditory adds. When the debuted the album in Seattle, all attendees received a set to listen to.

[@QnRyche]

that was promised land..

[@QnRyche]

i have video of it ..at boeing

[@timfetherling9750]

@@QnRyche yep. Promise Land

[@johara5393]

If you want live performances from Queensryche of course there's live in Tokyo... But there's also MTV unplugged

[@stephenkinney1194]

Take Hold of the Flame (live in Tokyo 1984) has already been mentioned, but another live performance I enjoy is I Will Remember, which they did on MTV's Unplugged series.

[@ivanboston8582]

Killing words from that performance is also stellar

[@brettkenschaft4239]

Great recommendation! "I Will Remember" from the unplugged set is amazing!!

[@chief45kc2572]

Great reaction! Would recommend "Take Hold of the Flame" live in Tokyo or anything off of the Operation: Mindcrime album 👍

[@ronaldsinagra8825]

That was Brahms' Lullaby, composed in 1869, played on the cello at the end of the song.

[@dipsydoodle7988]

I can't get technical about his singing, but I do know enough to be able to say this is simply one of the most beautiful songs ever written.

[@dorkyvonmunchmunch9912]

this is my 1991 and gives me all the feels. thank you for this. Welcome to the dichotomy of Queensryche

[@karma73bike]

Same here, great association with my last year of high school. Beautiful tunes of the 80s and 90s.

[@jeremyhulka3582]

I would also recommend Take Hold Of The Flame. The two songs together show off nearly his full range.

[@rokgod7]

You’ve only scratched the surface of this man’s voice.

[@the-dave-house-project]

Love when people's first reaction to Geoff is Silent Lucidity... so long as they progress to other songs to truly appreciate his range. Yes, he goes up an octave in this, but he's got a couple more available that aren't used in the song. Regardless, he's remarkable. There's a performance of Silent Lucidity, live on MTV that's absolutely perfect too.

[@matthewgoodA1206]

There have been many power ballads written by rock bands over time. At the inception of that sort of song, it was a trend many groups jumped on. And all these years later, it remains a well-known type of rock tune. But this particular composition still stands above most all others. Obviously refined and sophisticated, it is a progressive metal masterpiece.

[@GooeyFrog]

Acoustic version of "Eyes of a Stranger" is awesome....while he's holding a cup of coffee 😁

[@robotto8858]

Anybody else remember him doing "Scarborough Fair"? That still haunts my memory. Granted, not "Take Hold of the Flame", but still such a display of Geoff's talent.

[@andrewthompson5728]

"Did you hear those voice echoes?" Johnny Fever: "I hear them."

[@WiiK421]

Such a powerfully sweet, epic song from Queensryche. Just an absolutely beautiful piece of music written by Chris DeGarmo, and Geoff's vocals are the perfect complement to the instrumentation. The middle part about lucid dreaming seemed sinister at first until I understood what it was all about. I love the story of waking from a horribly bad dream...realizing it was only in your mind...your parents are right there watching over and protecting you, and you can safely fall back to sleep (with Brahm's lullaby playing on the cello).

[@HocusPocusFocus69]

Geoff's power, range, tone, expression and high vibrato is unmatched IMO! Great reaction, btw!

[@davbra12]

You have to check out Take Hold of The Flame performed live in Tokyo 1984! Crazy range and perfect vocal transition and placement. His vocal gymnastics are otherworldly! Also, check out I Will Remember performed live acoustically on MTV 1991 or 92? Also, you have to hear his vocal gymnastics in Eyes Of A Stranger! Please do a review of all of these! I'd love to hear your thoughts!

[@benpaulin3637]

Take hold of the flame live in Tokyo. The album Operation Mindcrime is amazing.

[@jxchamb]

Been a favorite song of mine ever since I first heard it in High School over 30 years ago. Absolutely gorgeous. Takes me back 1993. A particularly warm May afternoon. We all went to go bridge jumping into the river after school. This was playing on the radio.

[@once-and-future]

For all the wonderful things that can be said about the band - that song's true master class is the orchestration by the late great Michael Kaman.

[@snakeskinnerkyle]

Take hold of the flame, Tokyo. Then, eyes of a stranger

[@FosterTravis1071]

Queensryche was really lucky to get Micheal Kamen on the string arrangement.

[@markbrinson6090]

I do not believe she expected this. Love it.

[@danrue3263]

Glad you liked

[@warrenburroughs3025]

Any time I hear this song I get a very strong impression that someone heard a new word and decided 'I am going to hammer this word into a song by any means possible'. Each time I hear it the stronger that impression becomes.

[@user-zh2ey5og9e]

we can use a lot of words to describe this song.............or just one............ MASTERPIECE!

[@vaughncollar8014]

Don’t get used to this laid back, mellow sound. Queensryche is a hard rock band, and Geoff has the vocals to match. I’d suggest Jet City Woman, or anything off Operation Mindcrime

[@sharonspiller7427]

Jet City Woman, Eyes of a Stranger and Another Rainy Night. Or, as you said, any song off of Operation: Mindcrime. Can’t go wrong.

[@Lancer4323]

That song does that to everyone who has any emotion at all. It really tugs the ol heart strings ,Great job !😊😊

[@whey4u]

I can’t hear this song without a tear in my eye. So much life and feeling!

[@wookieenookiee6696]

From the first time I heard this on the radio back in '90 I always thought that chaotic jumble of words and phrases was alluding to the state of subconscious mind just before you enter REM sleep. With my brain working overtime processing the present, past and future without me having to think about it. Then you get that chorus of peaceful thoughts which helps dreams manifest. Having that explained (to me at least) in a song, was absolutely amazing. Another great reaction Jen

[@billwell9266]

Was lucky enough to be a fan starting in the mid 80s and first saw them live in 88. One of the best all-around bands ever.

[@oakland-as-diehard6717]

Song won “ Video of the year “ I believe at the MTV awards. Everyone will say to watch” take hold of the flame “ but honestly any song he is in a banger. I suggest checking out their MYV unplugged set and Della Brown, Lady wore Black or I will Remeber. They even covered Simon and Garfunkel song “ Scarborough Fair “. Legendary band and BEAST of a vocalist.

[@oakland-as-diehard6717]

My favorite is “ Suite Sister Mary “ .. so underrated

[@KennethSavage-nn2vv]

The strings at the end are playing a variation of Brahms Lullaby

[@Hemi_the_BlackSheep]

Listen to the end again and listen for the GENIUS of the string part playing the lullaby song. Master class placement. I weep to what has happened to music since masterpieces like this.

[@alancarpenter4904]

This one brings me to tears every time (with Geoff sings it). I saw them in concert right after Geoff left the band. (Queenryche was the opening band for the Scorpions that night). So sorry I missed the chance to hear him sign this.

[@fredkemper5957]

Thanks Jenn! Great job!😊

[@rachelwhite4320]

Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo 1984. Eyes of a stranger shows his beautiful vibrato and anything MTV unplugged because its all unbelievably amazing ❤ x

[@christopherdavidson4382]

Queen Of The Ryche is my absolute favorite song by Queensryche and someone really needs to react to it. Geoff is spectacular in that song

[@FingerFriction]

In the 3rd verse, when he says, "...walls come tumbling down," there's a very soft drum fill that sounds like a brick falling, reinforcing that lyric. I've never seen anyone reacting to this video catch it.

[@ErnestoBrausewind]

Has a very pink floydy vibe in the whole arrangement- love it, and of course his voice at the beginning sends some tingle to the right areas :)

[@michelleconcannon7584]

If you watch Take Hold of the Flame (Live in Tokyo 1984) , have the lyrics up. It's an amazing live performance, but the quality being 40 years old some of the words aren't as clear. But the E5s are!

[@matthewgoodA1206]

Not the best of ideas to somewhat spoil things for her, in my opinion. It lessens the surprise factor by knowing what to expect.

[@donaldborckardt8147]

Take Hold Of The Flame, live in Tokyo is definitely the best representation of Geoff’s talent.

[@andrewkubat1506]

The theme of the song is Lucid dreaming

[@alexthorpe6583]

I think it was the Charismatic Voice who described Geoff's voice as fundamentally smooth, like milk chocolate. He may add things to it to change its texture, but the smoothness never truly goes away. Incredible range, though this isn't the best song to hear his high belt. This song has been described as more Pink Floyd-like than most of their songs. I'd recommend 'Suite Sister Mary' for something truly wonderful.

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Love the description!

[@damienmaynard8892]

"Operation: LiveCrime" by Queensryche, concert of the album "Operation: Mindcrime" will blow your mind! A close friend of mine was "scared" of the music I listened to but this song, Silent Lucidity, she loved. C. Webb RIP 01/01/97. Forever her song. "If you persist in your efforts you can achieve a dream come true!" Geoff's voice on "Someone Else" is unforgettable!!

[@albertlemont5471]

Unplugged on MTV! Pick any song you will not be disappointed. Your welcome

[@jamisonjamisonx]

for me, this song was less about itself and more about wherever and whoever I was when I heard it.

[@Skybolt211]

Great reaction, Jennifer... Geoff Tate is one of Julia Nilon's favorite singers and she introduced him to Fairy Voice Mother... if you want to be further mind-blown, please react to Take Hold of the Flame, live in Tokyo.

[@TheRB3tv]

Definitely "Take Hold of the Flame" live from Tokyo!!!

[@lgarner3663]

Geoff Tate's range & control is insane!

[@SleepyheadJJC]

Thanks Jen 😊

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

😁

[@gavindadds4414]

Shout out to Chris Degarmo who wrote the song. For more of this side of Geoff's voice check out their MTV Unplugged show, especially The Killing Words and Scarborough Fair.

[@daave365]

Take Hold of the Flame is an absolute must

[@zackkullis5555]

I loved your reaction- so real and sincere.

[@brianburwick5175]

... and now waiting for the Jen acoustic cover version.

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

😁😁

[@Bullybompa]

"Operation: Mindcrime" is the best concept album ever created. And it's a shame that so few know about them, or Geoff.

[@deeduffjr]

Let us please not jump directly to Take Hold of the Flame, there are so many other great songs from this band! I'd love to see Jet City Woman, no one ever gets to that song because they end up going straight to Take Hold...

[@melbourne27]

Goosebumps :::::: Take hold of the Flame live in Tokyo 84

[@scottnoorlun8200]

It’s one thing to be a voice coach, but the meaning of the lyrics are just as important

[@jamesweiksner3587]

Geoff Tate has a range from B3 to E5 😊. Check out more queensrÿche!

[@longboardmed]

Take hold of the flame will pop your beautiful eye balls out of your head. Thanks for your reactions.

[@slavkopantelic5198]

Wonderful analysis, Jen, thank you for one more great video.. 🌺

[@animal2473]

I can't wait for you to find the group Steelheart ~ She's Gone! You will absolutely love what that vocalist is able to do

[@Featuringtim]

Thanks!

[@JenniferGlatzhofer]

Thank you!

[@bigjhodson]

I love Geoff tate’s voice but I think the back-up harmonies often get overlooked which is a shame because they are so good! Also, really interesting and experimental composition sets queensryche apart from their peers.

[@beatleblev]

Queensryche was one of the best rock shows I've seen. They played all of the songs from both Operation Mindcrime (it came with its own anime) and their new album, Empire, that includes, "Silent Lucidity." It was a fantastic performance from an amazing band. If you have ever sat on the edge of a child's bed after they have had a bad dream and you are there to comfort them and watch over them, you know all about silent lucidity, or at least near lucidity depending on how long the day has been.

[@bennettgreg]

Take Hold of the Flame AND Eyes of a Stranger.

[@lilwolf1970]

Someone else is another good song, anybody listening is good as well

[@sean_b_drummer]

Geoff did sing along to the track in their "produced" music videos. So what you see him do is how he sings it.👍🏽😁

[@williamharris7357]

Jet City Woman's real good from the Empire album

[@primemover1416]

So are Another Rainy Night and Anybody Listening.

[@jackal7498]

White Lion - When the Children Cry Faster Pussycat - House of Pain Two more emotional songs

[@dentonatteberry6083]

Take hold of the flame. This man's voice is absolutely amazing.

[@purplekat5864]

You have just heard an INCREDIBLY GREAT band and singer! Geoff is a baritone, but also sings really high, and can belt like no one else! He has power, control, magnificent tone, vibrato, and intensity! As everyone is suggesting, PLEASE listen to a song off their first LP called "Take Hold of the Flame" LIVE in Tokyo 1984! Geoff hits three E5's, the second one being a PERFECT note! They are such a versatile and accomplished band in every sense. I would say just go over and listen to Take Hold just for yourself, BUT, I think you should do a reaction video on it, 'cos you're going to react all right, and I'd like to see it when you do. 😆 I enjoyed hearing uour thoughts and observations about Geoff's vocals! And would love to hear MORE!

[@kingbrutusxxvi]

Geoff Tate and I have the same voice... speaking voice. While we're both baritones, he has a four octave range and I have a stunning 0.4 octave range. 😉

[@davidsuttles101]

Two songs from live in Tokyo ‘84 that are a must….Take Hold of the Flame and Queen of the Reich!

[@corepuncher]

Countdown to Take Hold Of The Flame, obviously.

[@williamjones6031]

When I feel like a cry, I sometimes go here 😥

[@Zacsondy]

Welcome to Queensryche.

[@michaelshelton3910]

You need to check the Queensryche rock masterpiece “Operation Mindcrime”. Perfection.

[@tayloryoung8336]

Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo next please!

[@LittleFullLotaSap]

Jennifer, the cello at the end is Braham's lullaby. Kinda subtle and seems to go unnoticed. :) Check out Eyes Of The Stranger by them!

[@simonescotton7853]

and now it's time to listen "take hold of the flame" live in tokyo 1984

[@tonycampbell4982]

Looked at that double neck electric guitar and that fr3kin awesome tama drum kit with the founder the drummer scott rockinfield

[@johnpittsii7524]

Hi Jennifer hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤

[@palladinodessa8988]

Just so you get how important it is; Take Hold Of The Flame - Live in Tokyo '84 next. Hear Geoff bring some power into the performance. 👍

[@dalejones9459]

Take hold of the flame live in tokyo 1984 will blow your mind after hearing solent lucidity first. Geoffs range in hos prime was unreal.
