Sebastian Bach: Wasted Time

Live at Hard Rock Live in Orlando, Florida
10/7/21

[@DavidSbiroli]

He is the voice of Skid Row, can’t be replaced! Once a frontman always a front man. Still awesome.

[@MrNeweb]

I watched Skid Row live in 93 in their prime, years don't pass in vain, it's kind of sad to watch because it makes me realize how old I am too. But Sebastian still rocks in his own way.

[@ldogin]

I love when people say it’s bad. It’s so good. That’s the man himself. Respect it and love it if you’re a true fan. Otherwise go away! Rock on.

[@kilog1kg]

Respect to Sebastián. No one can sing with the passion and power that he has sang with for over 30 years and STILL compete with what's out there today. TRUE LEGEND.

[@Pedro-lg9wz]

Fk all the haters, the audio equipment is not good, also do you think its easy to sing as you did 30+ years while you were in your prime????, he still has the brass balls to try and go for it 4:50, knowing the vocal demmands. BAZ is still making music and is doing better than many contemporaries like motley crew, bon jovi or even Axel Rose (vocally speaking)

[@JoshCartman]

Gawd...Axl sounds horrible nowadays. His lows are fine. His screams are still there, but everything else...ugh.

[@mjcs6399]

I don't understand posts like this, and it seems there are a LOT of them on here. Granted, I haven't seen the naysayers, and maybe they are vitriolic? I have SB on my very short list of absolutely best vocalists in any genre, but I can acknowledge that THIS is not that. It's not even a slam. You touch on the reason; not many of us can do the same physical things we could 30+ years ago. I can't jump up and grab a regulation basketball rim any more, but acknowledging that doesn't take away from the fact that I once could easily. So any comments that these vocals are not great are actually accurate. As long as they are expressed respectfully, they just acknowledge truth and don't change the fact that SB is an absolute legend at all, not one iota.

[@10ironworker]

For the life he’s lived still gives it all

[@marvsmith8137]

Still can rock, we are all getting old, unfortunately. Miss the days

[@shellyann8818]

Me too 😢

[@mathieubeauvais5696]

Go listen to Axl Rose and come back here and tell me that bach is bad !! Sebastian is still rockin it holyy fuck guys 😮 he’s 56 years old , he has given his 100% at every show he did back in the day and he can still sing his songs , for me that’s a huge congrats to him !! Plus…he’s having fun so hey , enjoy while he’s still here with us !! He’s the legend himself !

[@daniel_Keelh]

56 years with the life he had, I hope that people can enjoy what this beast still can do , the cleans are amazing, he had problems with distortion but... fuck you all, it's fucken amazing. I would kill my mon to be able to sing like that XD.

[@Privatte]

The way that resonate his jaw with de vibrato.. love it!

[@Chris-qb3mg]

The Best Ballad they did... and across the board in My opinion. Who Am I....the guy who could have and can low, medium, and high in harms with the Best that this voxist still does today. Love and Thanks to Sebastian.....The Neverending Story Brother 😎😎😎😎👍

[@bellelovelight1163]

I love Sebastian.. he is the real deal... this song is so meaningful... 🔥 ❤

[@obliviouz6908]

You rock Bach, always did, always will.

[@ppuntrotzooizooi7692]

Sebastian is an old school Rock-icon 🤘🤘 always a fan.

[@rossmarlin4947]

His voice is still absolutely amazing

[@SistaSol]

The number of people here with no appreciation for what it takes to sing period, not to mention vocals from 30+ years ago.

[@matthewnapora1527]

You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, there are several vocalists from years ago still doing it today who sounds so much better and even sound just as good as they did years ago and Sebastian just lousy

[@mathieubeauvais5696]

Man he still sounds freakin good for his age , he’s way older now and probably fucked his voice a bit by giving his 100% all his life..i say congrats to him for still singing his songs !!

[@ChasieWasey]

⁠​⁠@@matthewnapora1527 To be fair, he is still singing in the same key as the original, which is higher than most can go.

[@matthewnapora1527]

@@ChasieWasey he can't hit and high notes anymore and when he tries his voice cracks, all the party in over the years has taken its toll on them and he just doesn't have any longer

[@ridehead8771]

To Bach's credit he's still singing these songs on standard tuning.

[@Txaman88]

Nop....1t down

[@DrRyan81]

@@Txaman88it’s standard tuning dude

[@mayniac5.09]

@@Txaman88for sure 1/2 step down

[@MultiMeraklija]

There are singers like Sebastian Bach and Axl Rose, who never had problems with their voice, so they still can sing that high , no matter how old they are. Unlike, for example, Jon Bon Jovi, who had major problems with his voice, starting from the middle of the Slippery When Wet tour in the mid of 1987

[@JoshCartman]

@@mayniac5.09 nope. Go listen to the record, it's in the same tuning.

[@hacemeuncesar5042]

He's still a great singer

[@corinnalopez1040]

He still the greatest. I always liked him

[@Medes06]

Amazing. Love him.

[@bandaseattle]

Legend.... no more words!! the voice gets tired, but the spirit manages to capture the message....

[@alexleonel920]

Brazil land of metal. Love sebastian Bach

[@ernawanhadiyanto1867]

Damn good..his still got baddass voice his prime still exist

[@rossmarlin4947]

He had one of the highest octive voices in history

[@L.A.358]

Su magnificiencia: Sebastian Bach.👏 Simplemente, ¡Gracias!

[@Damo-hp7bc]

I love Sab as much as the next Skid Row fan BUT that was hard to watch.

[@lloydtownsend2625]

Sea bass's vibrato is the best in the history of rock.

[@Kiki-kt9kk]

He still sounds good except when he tries 2 hit those highs. I loved him as a kid damn I’m old

[@culleykaufman2295]

Bach 4 the Attack!!! Bach fan for life!

[@centralia83]

KZbin has killed live performances. People upload so many shit quality videos. And when people watch it, they’re dumb enough to believe that this is how it actually sounds. I saw him on this tour, and he sounded 10 times better than this. It was also toward the beginning of the tour. It was the 4th show on the tour. The longer the tour, the more wear it’s gonna have on his vocals singing these songs every night. He’s not 22 anymore. He’s still a great vocalist and sounds amazing live. He did when I saw him on the self titled tour and slave to the grind tour

[@dimitrioskultukis2358]

I agree 100 percent.

[@robertalsup6959]

You said it perfectly. People judge a show by a video recorded through someone's phone. It's fucking ridiculous.

[@shellybean9]

Then how come the only awful sounding videos I've heard lately are the Bach ones, but other videos of numerous different bands sound great? Also why do all the new Skid Row videos sound great? If it's bad phone quality, then wouldn't every video of any band uploaded sound like crap like this? Why is it when someone criticises a Bach video, it's automatically 'bad phone quality'? I can go listen to another band and say they sound awesome here and nobody bats an eye, it's only ever the Bach videos? It's not the phone.

[@noelb.cabrera6694]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@matthewnapora1527]

Singing the songs every night and the recording has absolutely nothing to do with him not being able to sing, Bruce Dickinson, Rob halford and numerous others do with every night as well and they are still killing it night after night

[@Penazzi777]

Espetacular!

[@azzurrijuve2719]

Watch a video of him doing this when he toured this song. It was incredible. not many front men could sing this song.

[@chriscarney6076]

Depends on the night I’ve seen him live & wasted time was the best song of the night

[@kmalcolm5352]

Watch the Gabi Gun video to see how this song should be sung. Props to Baz for giving it massive effort, but this song is beyond him now. Probably beyond any male voice.

[@countnefarius81]

This man is a fking legend

[@diegoliimaa]

Very good

[@elizamoreira5288]

Sebastian is great.

​@@shellybean9I do not agree with you.

[@micheleeurope]

La mia preferita

[@Sahara-ms6xb]

He does sound flat in this performance, but I think that's because of bad monitors. The guy probably can't here himself against the drums. It's not as easy as it looks. Remember, this is a guy who successfully sang on Broadway in addition to all his metal recordings and performances. He knows what he's doing, so I give him the benefit of the doubt.

[@kimberlylach6734]

LOVE ❤️ SB ! Can’t wait to see him and SUZIE Q Again! ❤️♥️💚🎶💖Happy St Patrick’s Day.. BACH! Xoxo

[@mmarw]

Skid Row ainda vive através do icônico Sebastian.

[@leonardoleite2447]

The most difficult song to sing from skid row... He still do it.. but its not the same.. that is ok..

[@BobbyStevens-et7ne]

The tempo is rushed. It's slightly faster than it should be. That does impact vocals as well. Those extra seconds allow the singer to breathe To make those killer vocals.

[@simplifygardening]

Loved Seb as i did Axel and Jovi but most of them need to stop singing now. not a note in tune. its hard to listen too even though I was one of the biggest skid row fans ever

[@traceya3669]

I heard he lost part of his voice after having Covid lower tones still great Higher ones need work

[@jasoncrambone4898]

Nice gut Vince! I love Bach but his high notes sound like he's dying...LOL. I'll see him anytime though. Live it is a great experiment. KZbin killed the music scene!

[@stevegreusome9961]

I'd guess Phil, the Killswitch X singer, T.Vexed etc would agree? Patton would argue & claim it. 😐

[@peugaldino2818]

Skid Row Music are really hard

[@Majestic167]

Exactly? He’s 56 years old, and has been belting these songs out for over 30+ years, 3-5 days a week. NOBODY is going to sound like they did when they were in their 20’s!!!

[@yuridejan]

BAZ have a great voice in 2022

[@user-eq7bx4ud2x]

Tired!

[@chardchard7377]

A little fast on the tempo

[@larslevinberget9558]

And now, in 2024 he sings WAY better than this, post COVID and everything ;P

[@carlosvieiratech]

O cara mudou o solo praticamente todo, fala sério. Estragou a música. Cara pelo menos o Sebastian ainda está melhor que o Axl rsrsrss

O guitarrista ai em vez de fazer o solo correto fica inventando e improvisando, po brother toca o que é o original da música, faz o simples, não inventa.

[@noelb.cabrera6694]

he got some cockroaches stuck in his throat which he failed to remove prior to this funny but also some wasted gig of his.

[@jessica_1994]

he still sounds the same in the late 80s early 90s wow

[@lisasinclair7541]

Umm

[@CleG-ix5vj]

🥠

[@larrysquires5321]

Fortunately... he's got a band that keeps him from being the worst one out there. If he could sing only the first and last lines of every verse, he'd be fine. Can still scream a bit, too.

[@kaudsiz]

Wasted Time is a song for the ages. The studio-version performance on that song, by Baz, is literally through the roof. His most incredible singing on that song 🤘☹️🖤☮️

[@nedrini1055]

Oh man, that was rough. It could still get up a little high, but he was totally off key the whole song.

[@rossmarlin4947]

So hard to play a 12 string LoL

[@matthewnapora1527]

A good vocalist would know their limitations and not try to hit notes that are out of their range and it's really sad all the people singing how great he sounds when he's absolutely horrible and just embarrassing himself

[@mariaestheraguilar7483]

unfortunaly your voice mr. bach is gone !! like jon bon jovi and david coverdale and klaus meine and others singers of glam metal of the 80s and 90s🤔🤔🙄🎸

[@dimitrioskultukis2358]

No dude. Your judging this on a KZbin video taken with a phone. Go see him live and then report back. I'm not saying his voice is what it was in 1989 but it's still amazing. You also have to remember that he has played this song many thousands of times and it gets old to sing it just like he did in 1988 or 89. Plus hes obviously much bigger and put on a lot of weight. That can change your vocal chords too. But I would agree that he has lost some of his magic. Not all just some.

[@randywissler9923]

Bon Jovi and Coverdale maybe, but Klaus is still top of his game. And after how many decades they've been doing it, their gonna lose some top end. It's called aging.

[@shellybean9]

@@dimitrioskultukis2358 Again that would mean all uploaded videos of any rock band would automatically sound bad like this, but like I said in my other reply it's only the Bach ones that sound bad. There are other bands now that the singer sounds bad also, but we're talking Bach here and phone quality. Your point makes no sense... judging it on a youtube video taken on a phone, but other videos taken on a phone that I've heard sound awesome. Face it, Bach's voice is shot, it's Bach and not the phone.

[@metalmilitia1977]

No one is worse than Bon Jovi. He hasn't been able to sing live in over 25 years. But nowadays it's so bad I cringe

[@tak178]

He's singing in THE SAME KEY as in 1991.

[@zenona_67lovers]

é um cover ruim do que já foi um dia.

[@rickrick6933]

Shitty back up band and really bad back up vocals ...he better het a better band with 2 guitarists Skid Row and their new singer are sounding fucking amazing..

[@allanwead3595]

sebastian would blow the new si ger away about 20 years ago

[@LarryGoldenTalksLikeBuckwheat]

@@allanwead3595 No he wouldn’t have. Listen closely to I remember you… The studio version. Almost every single line was punched in.

[@welloliveira1449]

Blz então ele fará tudo que Bach fez e até mais não eh mesmo? Como eh nome dele msm?

[@scotthansen8127]

I saw Skid Row in 1989 with Aerosmith and I guarantee you the new singer would not have been even close to as good as Sebastian. I was literally amazed!

[@tiffanyalberti2029]

Iggy Pop is a thousand years old and still sounds good onstage. As much money as Bach has he should have been taking better care of his voice. So what of I don't have a Grammy. So what if I am a software engineer. Musicians are nothing without us fans. We make them or break them. Not Hollywood. He needs to retire.

[@tibord72]

This is the result you get if you don’t look after your voice

[@Txaman88]

Awful! A song with one tone down and he's incapable to sing it...and the best vibrato moments are with a loooooooooot of reverb & delay.

[@maravilla67]

Grande, hasta la muerte!!
