Halestorm - Familiar Taste Of Poison - Jimmy Fallon (21-07-2010)

[@JR-xj2vr]

This wasn’t just a song. It was a theatrical performance…..executed perfectly.

[@JR-xj2vr]

Allentown PA….on the map.

[@KenWilton-i9l]

Are you kidding me??? That vocal -- unbelievable.

[@almogazoulay4454]

i think this is one of the best preformence on tv ever shown

[@annaoggier7099]

+Almog Azoulay i agree

[@lulu21tmntlover27]

I agree too

[@sweetlittlesister]

I concure

[@thelastbill1]

Almog Azoulay not quite but maybe top ten. Disturbed sound of silence live

[@joell5235]

I like disturbed as much as the next guy, but they absolutely butchered sound of silence

[@PLEA]

Its nice that Selena Gomez got to get a listen at what good music actually is...

[@tejedadude]

Haha You funny fuck!

[@allenlegacy242]

Now that is funny LOL. Gotta love Lzzy.

[@calebanderson360]

Hahahahaha

[@Monisrocks1995]

Victoria Porter you're right. Rock is better than that pop shit.

[@Monisrocks1995]

Victoria Porter WHat song?

[@new2utube541]

And later she became one of the best female vocalists in Rock's history

[@RoannaSchoppe]

I love this song. Keep rockin it.

[@pueblonative]

Later?

[@dale4039]

you can hear the raw emotion in her voice

[@BenjaminRichardCraig]

she's the best in all of rock today, as she was 5 years ago, and probably will be 5 years from now. she's easily the greatest female rock singer ever and one of the best ever. Her road stamina is unmatched throughout history.

[@deniseaikin7585]

2024 and still coming back to this video!

[@azimuth361]

This video ends before we see it, but Selena Gomez and Lzzy Hale had a very nice moment. Selena shook Lzzy's hand and paid her a nice compliment. Lzzy bowed and gave a sincere 'Thank you'. Then Selena went to compliment each member of the band one by one. Now, I'm NOT AT ALL a Selena Gomez fan. But she was classy. I won't say anything bad about her.

[@scava1758]

for me the sense is not in hating Selena's personality or even her vocals but is in many people who pay too much attention to this lil pop princess while Halestorm is the underrated band compared to Selena

[@shomz]

Is that the classy lady chewing with her mouth open at the beginning of the clip?

[@johnathangoldblatt2931]

Scava I just find the hating of pop stars unnecessary. What’s the purpose of it?

[@adamw116]

@@scava1758 The problem is including the difference in musical genres these women in their twenties grew up with Selena Gomez as children or tweens. They don't know who Lzzy Hale is and that she didn't really break more into the mainstream after she found the right sound and the right band to go along with it in her early thirties I think. Also Rock unfortunately is not the most popular form of music anymore. A song like Familiar Taste Of Poison even a decade ago sounds like something pre grunge.

[@JustJoshLTRB]

@@adamw116 rock really is to blame for that. Rock fans tend to be very intolerant of other genres on top of that in the mid 00s bands started writing shit that was only really accessible to a select audience. Previously rock was huge because of its accessibility and relatability to the masses. It sucks. I worked in rock for pretty much my whole career in music. And the intolerance of fans always made me cringe.

[@RealDyl75]

Lzzy is arguably the greatest female rock singer ever. Right up there with Joan Jett

[@jpslaym0936]

And Benatar for sure, although Lizzy obviously has stronger love for heavy rock than Pat.

[@Pumpkin3.14pi]

Don't forget Ann Wilson and Janis Joplin. I like Lady the best though.

[@phoenix21studios]

I'm not a halestorm fan but Lizzy is better than Joan Jett IMO.

[@lessimeharuhi4236]

Lzzy was often inspired by Janice Joplin growing up. I get those vibes when I hear her grunge's

[@trevrockslml694]

And Amy Lee

[@tzvikrasner6073]

Lzzy was only 26 at this point, and already a master showwoman. This is why I love this band.

[@RubikismMCR]

I'll never get tired of this video

[@ESLaParra]

Same here. Thank god I found a better quality vid. Lol

[@redsox4life]

RubikismMCR Me neither!

[@heavenwithin81]

Corey was right. If Lizzy could find a way to capture that live feel on an album? it would be one of the best rock albums to come out within the last 15 years.

[@christiecrawford1653]

Ms. Alex I can't stand her recorded stuff. I LOVE her live. So I agree with this statement.

[@andrewyork3869]

I don't mean this in a bad way, but she is one of the few artist that is true with. It's like she adds more to the song live than in the studio.

[@Wveth]

​@@christiecrawford1653 I find that baffling. Much of Lzzy's artistry goes into composition and lyrics, and while you definitely lose something by not seeing the performance, she loads each song with TONS of nuance (lyrically, compositionally and even vocally) to make sure it's still authentic. I think so many of their recorded songs are great, and a few I think are real masterpieces.

[@jennandren]

Ugh the only live performance that always gives me goosebumps no matter how much i listen to it

[@LisaTMusic]

+Jennandren Same here :)

[@MarkCox21125150]

Ditto - every damn time. I tear up most times . . . just one for the record books.

[@powerforth8400]

Yeah I'm with you. It's in my playlist of best live performances. Love the drummers performance!

[@Pumpkin3.14pi]

Check out "I'm not an Angel" live in Philly. It will give you chills.

[@Melanrick]

Its because you can feel how bad she feels...

[@MrJulioStrangeness]

Thirteen years later and it's still one of the best live performances ever on the show

[@kakarrot330]

Selena Gomez, take notes honey, that's how it's done

[@MissDorothyRose]

Can we just focus a second on how gorgeous Lzzy looks? Combined with that voice she is truly beautiful.

[@chrislem8282]

They won a Grammy in 2013 for best hard rock band

[@bourniboy]

No, they won for best Hard Rock/Metal Performance.

[@phoenix21studios]

who were the other options?

[@taylorparnell2186]

@@phoenix21studios sort of but at the time a lot of them were still very successful and big so the chances of halestorm winning were like a million to one

[@FireOfJagz]

The camera focuses so much on Lzzy, but look at Arejay, he makes a show on his own. Amazing band :D

[@rebeccaskinner6040]

I think one of the things I like the most about Halestorm is that it's not just Lzzy that grabs your attention, it's Arejay. I've seen so many bands in which the drummer just blends into the background because they're just sitting there playing normal, but Arejay is always doing tricks and standing up on is drum set and stuff so that even when I'm trying to focus on Lzzy, my gaze wanders to him, curious about what antics he's up too. He's just as much a performer as Lzzy.

[@Treyvlog]

Fire of Jagz wouldn't you focus on lzzy

[@FireOfJagz]

Treyvlog Yeah very true :p but what i like about bands is that there's a group making music and performing it. Not just an upjumped 'solo artist' with a whole team behind his back that does most of the work

[@warmonger12z]

Two words - "Big Sticks!"

[@bjs3171]

​@Rebecca Skinner I saw Halestorm just a few months ago. Arejay sat on a giant raised platform in a neon green suit, and played on a matching neon green kit. He, uh...yeah he didn't blend in.

[@BelacanHangit]

I think i watched this gazillion times. Always giving me the same chills

[@maxpower2542]

She is such a throw back to the days when rock ruled and singer had to be able to sing. Lzzy is so flippin' talented. She has more vocal ability in her little finger than all the singers in the top 40 put together. LOVE ME SOME LZZY!

[@mosspa1]

Considering the subject material, I'm amazed you used the pseudo-adjective "flippin'". Say what you fucking mean, man!

[@kathleenheck7910]

Has anyone ever tried singing that chorus and fell out about halfway through and thought, well......damn she's good.

[@crazyzach3547]

Lzzy is one of those vocalists you just stare at in awe when she’s performing. I’d kill to attend a Halestorm concert in a small venue. Flawless performance of this song

[@danielbohler3041]

one of the best female rock voices ever!!!

[@Peppa_Pig_Fan86]

Best vocalists ever.

[@victoriabrown6561]

The emotion in her eyes especially at the end just kills me

She is a natural born performer, she can hold the crowd in her hands at will. She's got some pipes! Her voice is so powerful.

[@kingkrysen]

@@scotthayes1210 facts 💯🔥

[@a24396]

I've seen Halestorm in person at Rock-am-ring and I have to say that they are even better in person! This song is not auto tune or pre-recorded... What you are seeing is a rare thing, a live performance that is actually a real live performance...Just an amazing group! Thanks for uploading!

[@lessimeharuhi4236]

Look up Werner studio 'captured in the live room' videos. You'll be delighted to see a few of their popular tracks

No way

[@zockerhdgarantiert]

It's true i've seen them a week ago in Berlin Velodrom they where the opening act for Ghost. My mouth was open the whole time I think 😂

[@JeanDominguez-p7g]

Yeah what happens is that on a concert they get tired they're humans so they can listen a litle bit diferent in this ocation she sings just this song so she have energy to do that

Did anyone else see the drummer at 3:20? Totally threw his stick up and caught it back. Badass!

[@metroidhunter965]

You haven't seen much of Arejay's badassery behind the Kit then. Go to a Halestorm concert. You won't be disappointed. Especially when there's a drum solo just for him.

[@fofrankstank]

She really does an amazing show. I got to see them live at Nebraskaland days in June. She played until she was forced off the stage by an incoming thunderstorm. She laughed about it telling us the crowd to be careful what you name your band because it might just follow you everywhere

[@goofyfurball7311]

LOL. I went to see them last year and our concert got delayed by a literal surprise hailstorm. She made a similar joke then too.

Lzzy Hale is an amazing singer, but is not the only one with a powerfull voice or the only good female singer, i love her, but if i need to pick i will pick Alissa, because she can sing wherever you want without any problem and for the records she don't have a single vocal lesson, is just her voice...
