Vocal Coach Reacts To Motley Crue - Kickstart My Heart - Ken Tamplin

[@chrisw1460]

Your diplomacy is outstanding. It's clear that Vince is not at the top of his game here, and you did everything you could to avoid slamming him. Well done.

[@stretchopotomus2385]

That's one way to look at it. I wouldn't particularly want anyone slammed, but I think honesty is more important than diplomacy, and in all honesty, coming from a Motley Crue fan, Vince's performance was terrible, and he has lost any strength of vocals that he ever had, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I have seen, he never could quite hack it live.

[@bobholland3810]

Vince has only been a studio singer. He’s fantastic in there. But I have never heard him sound remotely close to good live, ever.

[@andreisabogal6953]

It's a gentleman

Vince Neil Brutal

[@michaelsmith9544]

Compared to seeing them in the late 80's Vince is singing better. So sad. He trailed off lyrics on all his songs way worse than this video when I saw them. This was in Germany and it was basically a gymnasium with the pullout bleachers. It was so bad. I wanna say it was Ufo and Dokken in the show. Ufo stole the show. I really like Crue but that was a terrible outing for them.

[@FernandoDaniel7]

I strongly agree, great guitarrist. Whenever he plays live, the guitar sounds as if it was a studio recording, but it's not, he's amazing. Favorite guitar solos: Home Sweet Home, Girls Girls Girls, Looks That Kill, Dr. Feelgood, Same Ol' Situation, Take Me To The Top and Too Young To Fall In Love. Another great and underrated guitarrist is Neal Schon from Journey. He played with Santana at the age of 16, and founded Journey in 1975. Favorite guitar solos: Still They Ride, Send Her My Love, Stone In Love, Who's Crying Now, Faithfully, Separate Ways, Anytime, Feeling That Way, Lights, Of A Lifetime, Mother Father, La Raza Del Sol, Only The Young, Wheel In The Sky, Edge Of The Blade, After The Fall, When You Love A Woman, La Do Da, Ask The Lonely, Chain Reaction, Winds Of March, and Back Talk.

Well that overdose story is wrong. That's not one story. It's two stories. The lyrics "valentines in London, found me in the trash" was from the UK, where he started to OD. He claimed a dealer beat him with a baseball bat, which is nonsense. No dealer would do that, they would know it wouldn't do anything other than maybe kill the guy. But he likely would dump in the bins. As a struggling addict for 20-odd years I have seen this kind of thing happen. The other story, where he was injected with adrenaline, was from when he overdosed in LA. Slash was allegedly there, and he put him in the shower and called the paramedics.

mjs28s - Vince was a great frontman and very good signer in his prime, he had the range and hit some serious 1980's hair metal high notes and he sang with feeling. His daughter died from cancer as a child which was around the time the bad separated and arguably the end of Motley Crue's prime. He never returned to his peak form but that could definitely be due to never really recovering from that heartbreak.

What language was Vince singing in ? I hardly understand a few words he sang.

[@kentamplin]

Some secret twin language?

Great breakdown of this song, and stage set. Crue surely kicks ass! Subscribed.

[@kentamplin]

Thanks, Blake!

[@blakenorthrup]

@@kentamplin You got it. I appreciate the honesty about vocals, and bands. Keep up the great work.

[@Θανος-ι6φ]

Hey Ken, just so you know, Motley uses backing vocal tracks, keep that in mind.

[@kimberlysalmonowicz6121]

Yes they are playing tight! Bands that improve with age and choose to live cleaner. I also would love to hear your take on Tom Keifer, Richie Kotzen and loved your Michael Sweet tribute!!

Tom Keifer's voice took a toll but I am glad he is back to singing

[@fridz66]

Tom Keifer had it bad, with the surgery and all, but the guy was a beast in the 80’s era.

Vince and Axle need to start a support group
