[@thelastwildcolonialboy3667]

One thing people don't mention very much about Dave's vocals is he generally writes killer lyrics and great counterpoint melodies against his hectic riffing. There's much more to singing than good technique, there's melody writing and story telling as the other dimensions

[@aaroncollins5188]

I've kind of always known this, but recently my 4 year old son has taken an interest in Megadeth and our usual guitar sing-a-longs have gotten nearly impossible as I try to sing along to these riffs that I've been playing for decades and finding it near impossible. Even seemingly simple songs like Trust - I honestly don't know how he does it. I have yet to make it through a single verse without tripping over myself on the fretboard.

[@SoulRollerFIN]

I know this is April fools, but man... I've been waiting for this for a long time. Yes, Dave's voice is like that of disfigured angel's, but the way he delivers the lyrics in these songs is masterful. So much energy and purpose plus the message couldn't be clearer. Also worth mentioning that these guys were all freaking high on coke, or crack (or both) while they were performing. That's kinda impressive if you think about it. Glad they got over it and realised how great they could become. Megadeth's newest album is just brilliant. Really hoping for it to be featured.

[@contumelious-8440]

Rust in Peace is widely considered to be Megadeth's best album. I rate it second behind Peace Sells, personally, but my point is that drugs and great rocknroll has been concomitant since The Beatles. Also, they didn't get over it, exactly. Dave has removed or driven off every original band member and writes all the material himself now with, more or less, studio musicians. Also, Dave's choice drug was Heroin as mentioned.

[@SeanEnginetechnology]

Yeah but although I think Nick wasn't living healthy till after this a bit but far as I know Marty Freedman was never a user aside from maybe smoking a joint once in a while.. But yes, Def heard about mustaine drinking very heavy and of course the evil dragon..

[@DriveCarToBar]

It's awesome to see her doing a vocal analysis of Mustaine. I have to confess surprise because Mustaine's voice is...uh...unique. He himself said that he doesn't consider himself a singer and most of what he learned was all self-taught and only as much as needed to actually play shows. But the riffs and the songwriting are legend. Easily my favorite of the Big 4.

[@enzyme181]

I was really fortunate to meet Marty Friedman a few weeks ago. It was a few days after he did the Megadeth reunion in Japan. He was still riding a high from that and just gushed about it when asked. He was humble, down to earth and put on an awesome show. It was a cool experience.

[@mvunit3]

He sure "Cut off the heads" of all of us when solo on-tour with Queensryche in Anahiem a few weeks ago! Fantastic show. Was my 1st time seeing him solo, and my 1st time was seeing him on the Rust In Peace Tour. He really had the crowd roaring :). QR was just as great, was my 1st time to see them with Todd LaTorre, which Liz should react to as well.

[@arsen9139]

You're really lucky guy. I listened Marty's album "Dragon's Kiss" before I found out he enter Megadeth. Actually I draw my attention on Megadeth because Marty became a member of this band. His guitar work is really fantastic and I was really encouraged when my friend said that my guitar work sometimes felt like inspired by his legacy.

[@picmajik]

I love Marty Friedman's Cacaphony Album "Speed Metal Symphony"

[@SgtBearPatrol]

This is so fantastic! My only regret is not seeing Elizabeth break down this incredible song. I’m very happy that she’s doing a A Tout le Monde, but that is such a very different song than most of the rest of their catalog. I would really love to see her analyze another one of their heavier and more technical trash songs. In my Darkest Hour would be a great choice. And I would love to hear what she thinks of the Skull Beneath the Skin. If she’s never heard it, I think it would melt her brain. Easily one of the most ambitious and challenging songs from any of the big four. It’s like thrash jazz, which makes sense, because Gar Samuelson, the drummer, came from jazz fusion.

[@TheGreatOne66]

Kirk has almost all of Elizabeth's facial expressions down pat. There are a couple that he left out, but maybe it was the lack of being impressed by Dave's vocals compared to say, Dio that kept those dreamy stares from Kirk's repertoire. Also, Kirk, You didn't restart the song from the beginning enough times. C'mon, Bro. Hearing Elizabeth laughing and watching Kirk keeping a straight face as he glances over to poke more fun at Elizabeth without saying a word was the best part of the video. So glad you two have a great sense of humor and a relationship that allows you two to play like this.

19 minutes of analysis for a 6.5 minute song?!?! Those are rookie numbers for this channel! XD But I loved every second! Great video.

Hilarious. I have been into Megadeth since hearing the “Loved to Deth”(I think that’s what it was called) demo. Love the fun you guys had with this analysis- killer song too!

About time he may not be vocally perfect but its the whole package with Dave warning us about the system since I was a teenager ! Yes metalica was just holding him back .
