Vocal Coach Reacts To QUEENSRŸCHE - 'SILENT LUCIDITY' + Vocal Analysis

In this video, I react for the first time to Queensryche performing ‘Silent Lucidity’. In this video, I analyse Geoff Tate’s amazing performance, explain and demonstrate his vocal techniques and I'll tell you what I think made it so great. So many people recommended this song and Geoff’s vocals are always something to behold!

Dear Lolli 🥰🥰🥰 About this Bridge in the middle part of this song... I've got a wish! Can you please singing an "ahhhhh...." by FOLLOWING this String Part's in this Bridge Section going on, please??? Yes - singing this String Part's! With double Voices....or more (?))...Julia Nilon...and together with Elizabeth from The Charismatic Voice, please? Or all of you 3 Angels doing their own on Version of this Part, please? And later doing a 3 Angels together Version of it, please? And recording it! That would be amazing!💝💝💝 It's just an idea.... Thank me later.... ^^

[@jeremybrown7075]

This was the first Queensryche song I ever heard and love it

[@omaramador4669]

THIS SONG IS BLOODY GOOOODDD‼️‼️ You don’t see it ??🫢🫢🫢🫢 Funny 😆😆😂😂 I smiled and laughed a lot as always. Your reactions are top notch ❤❤❤❤❤🩷🩷👅👅 🎶🎶🎼🎼🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 Keep it up ginger 🇳🇿

[@fatboynick4104]

Tate doesn't just sing a song, he paints a picture. He is,. in my humble opinion, one of the most expressive and intense singers in the industry. You feel his pain, his joy, and any other emotion you can throw in there. Listen to the whole Operation Mindcrime album and you'll understand what I mean. It is a concept album with an amazing story. It really is an emotional roller coaster ride.

[@kevincollins6383]

Don't forget the master mind behind most of the songs that inabled Tate to express them (Chris DeGarmo)

[@M-S_4321]

To this day, I still can't understand why Operation Mindcrime isn't used as the masterclass thesis when discussing rock opera.

[@Farinhir]

Operation Mindcrime is, in my opinion, the most important concept album metal ever had. Tate and DeGarmo were genius. The official video for "Suite Sister Mary" from Operation Mindcrime could be used as a masterclass for rock opera. Should learn the entire story to understand it though.

[@fatboynick4104]

​@@Farinhir Agreed 100%. OM almost ruined me for listening to other music. I could not listen to anything else for the longest time after it was released. It was probably after the billionth listen when it finally started to loosen its grip on me. The album is just so damn captivating and intoxicating. I still listen to it faithfully 35 years later. It's a shame DeGarmo left because, for me, that is when the creativity of Queensryche started to wane.

[@Farinhir]

@@fatboynick4104I knew of Queensryche back in the early 2000s. I only found OM about a decade ago. A friend told me to listen to it from front to finish. So glad she did that.

[@JuanLopez-zn8xf]

This is my absolute favorite song ever! I used to sing this to my children when they were babies. A true modern day lulliby!

[@fml5910]

Someone close to you leaving the game of life sure hits home.

[@albertlemont5471]

The entire MTV unplugged session was magic. I cannot recommend it enough.

[@the-dave-house-project]

It was, and I'm confused by the rest of your comment. Lol.

[@insanejughead]

@@the-dave-house-project They're saying that it's SO good, it would be impossible to do it justice, even by recommending it to an endless number of people. It's the highest compliment that AlbertLemont5471 can give to that performance.

[@bryanparker2925]

Yes “Lady Wore Black”. MTV unplugged please

[@stevechristy3244]

The part where the vocals are mixed with the instruments (before the last verse) appears to be done by Michael Wilton, not Geoff on the MTV version.

[@martinhonan9588]

Absolutely

[@michaelweber1535]

MTV unplugged Queensryche is just perfection

[@alexthorpe6583]

Queensryche has put out a lot of excellent music over the years. If you want something slower again, I'd recommend 'Anybody Listening?', 'The Lady Wore Black', 'I Will Remember', 'No Sanctuary', or 'The Real World'. If you want to go more energetic.. well, the entire 'Operation: Mindcrime' album is great for that.

[@dizzyyojimbo2619]

+ Another Rainy Night

[@briangreen9677]

Agreed on "Anybody Listening?". I've listened to Queensrÿche since the late 80s and Empire is still my favorite album from beginning to end. The story about the end of Anybody Listening? is hilarious. Imagine a bunch of these guys driving around Seattle in a van and sticking a parabolic microphone out the side to try and record an actual drug deal going down. Suffice to say, they failed to record something and NOT get caught, so they just made up the end of the song. The sound of the Orcas in the song just completes it for me.

[@timneale5657]

LoL did you just recommend The Lady Wore Black as a "slower" one... Love that song but ummm. Ok, I'll give you it's slower in tempo overall. Ok, maybe it's slower but the intensity makes it seem faster I guess dammit ;) LoL

[@genrabbit9995]

Operation Mindcrime is bloody marvelous.. :)

[@brettkenschaft4239]

Someone Else?

[@ryansmallwood1178]

So glad Julia Nilon introduced this band to the channel, it was great to have a follow up!

[@parzivalplays7403]

Julia Nilon is one of my fave reactors :) And I saw Fairy Voice Mother's reaction to Jinjer Pisces ... I can only assume that is the friend Julia spoke of regarding growl technique. These 2 are awesome channels :)

[@johndeeregreen4592]

This song really surprises people... when they realize Geoff Tate is actually a bass-baritone and not the tenor he pretends to be on a lot of songs. The dude has such awesome control up into tenor range for someone who has such a deep voice naturally.

[@jasperdevries1726]

The late Michael Kamen's arrangement here is great and, good as Chris's songwriting is, lifts it to amazing level.

[@QnRyche]

Most dont know michael has done several songs with them

[@ronparsons8786]

Great vocal performance by Geoff Tate That doesn't even scratch the surface of his range. The entire song is simply a masterpiece of lyricism, composition, arrangement, performance, and production

[@jamesweiksner3587]

Queensryche MTV unplugged. The song I will remember. He sings the song mostly on the vocal break (impressive).

[@db8926]

I've heard this song many hundreds if not thousands of times, and in this 22 minutes I've learned more about this song than ever before.

[@mattijohansen3471]

I love how this song is so very different from Take hold of the flame. And it really helps to understand the singer and the band. The fun thing is. Silent Lucidity became a really big hit, and was on all the charts. But it almost didn't make it unto the album. Because until a few weeks before the deadline, all there was was a acoustic guitar and vocals. So the manager said that maybe they should delay it and use it for another album, because it did not sound complete. But the guitarist who wrote the song really loved it, and the band loved it. So they wanted it on the album. So they pushed to have it finished and had the backing track added shortly before release. And then the manager loved it to, and it was added to the album. And that means when you said the composition is clearly the acoustic guitar, and the voice. And the rest is just like sonic decoration. You where more right than you have any right to be. Clearly it must be that wand giving up some magical powers. Because that is in fact all the song was at first.

[@HARPERSSON]

What I love about you is - it's not just vocal analysis, but all the choices the band makes in a arrangement and even mix. Really smart......

[@mamayl8592]

Criminally underrated group. Geoff and Co. made such great, artistic music. And Silent Lucidity in my mind is a symphonic song incognito in a rock song.

[@silentrage5425]

This is another song that is hard for me to hear. Not long after it's release, my girl friend passed away from breast cancer. I spent weeks with this song on repeat. So, while I love to see your reactions and hearing your analysis, I don't promise I won't cry a little.

[@fencsakbetti]

Hi! I just want to check on. How did it go, are you okay?

[@Frakk_69]

Best live band I've ever seen (pre-breakup) and I've seen many/most of the greats of the last 30 years. For the next dive into Geoff's vocals I recommend MTV Unplugged "I Will Remember" (my favorite from this show), "Della Brown", and "The Lady Wore Black". Stripped down to mostly acoustic it really highlights his incredible vocal control and placement mastery.

[@richmcelmeel5430]

Agreed...they opened for Metallica and is still the best show I've seen.

[@purplekat5864]

Yes! I own the MTV Unplugged show uncut, which is FABULOUS! My recommendation from that show is " The Killing Words". After the guitar solo there is a part that shows how fearless a singer Geoff is. You'll know which part when you hear it. They altered that delivery from the studio version. "I Will Remember" is great too! "Della Brown" is also a bit of a bluesy song about a homeless person. They also do a cover of "Scarborough Fair" that's cool! They do it acoustically here, but also have a fully amplified version as well. I too have been fortunate enough to see the original lineup of Queensryche play live many times! Over decades of concert going, theirs were the BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES I'd ever seen!

[@parzivalplays7403]

I got to see the Empire show in Edmonton... where they threw in "Operation Livecrime" as a BONUS... was not billed, or advertised. The opening act, did 3 songs, and left... we had Queensryche for 2 straight hours.... MINDBLOWING :) Love this band :) I had front row center for that show... could have spoken with the band I was so close. My fave concert to date :)

[@purplekat5864]

@@parzivalplays7403 I totally agree! BEST concert EVER! The first time I went to see them after discovering them (Empire/Mindcrime tour), I was so afraid of being too far away from the stage that I got my ticket from a "ticket agent" (basically scalper) and paid the enormous sum (back then) of $300. But the seat was 3rd row, center! HEAVEN! I don't regret any of the money I spent over the years to see them. Worth every cent, every time!

[@MrAllDay2u]

Same... 👊

[@cydrych]

That little quiver at the leap between the first and second words… that is what I’ve been waiting for.

[@donhawkins3461]

I saw these guys for the first time in 1988 when they opened up for Metallica in Eppelheim, Germany.

[@roberthynesdogtraining]

Been waiting for you to do this song. This song is a masterpiece vocally, compositionally and lyrically. That magic new dimension is the 4th dimension, time itself. When you dream, you're in the 4th dimension. This explains that sense of "deja vu", you've done this before in your dreams and it hits you in "reality". Everything that will happen, every choice you make has already been made. This song can be classed as a lullaby, and it even pays homage to Brahm's Lullaby. I get the impression that the child lost someone close, parent or relative. The person that died is singing this song to the child beyond death - from the 4th dimension. "I'm smiling next to you, in Silent Lucidity". If you listen to Carl Sagan explain the 4th dimension, this song makes alot of sense. "Your mind tricked you to feel the pain of someone close to you leaving the game of life". Suddenly you hear and see this magic new dimension (I) will be watching over you (I) am gonna help you see it through (I) will protect you in the night (I) am smiling next to you, in silent lucidity

He sang a question without a raised eyebrow?! Jesus.. I have loved this song for 33 years and never noticed that. Bloody hell. My eye brow raises now everytime i sing along. Love Queensryche. Thank You for another spectacular review.

[@purplekat5864]

Lolli! Ive been waiting to hear you react to this song since Julia suggested it!! And you didn't disappoint! Your observations and little bits of information are immensely interesting, entertaining, informative, and satisfying! Geoff's ability to sing ANYTHING always thrills me! His tone and control and expression are just out of this world! (I'm gushing, aren't I ) No one conveys feelings the way he does! (and the gushing continues). I too noticed how the drums and strings "came tumbling down" in a reflection of the lyrics. As I'm sure you know, Michael Kaman did the orchestral arrangement, which was PERFECT! In an interview, Geoff said the record company wasnt very keen to include "Silent Lucidity" on the Empire album, but that he and Chris ( who wrote it) pushed for it, and when the orchestration was added, the execs got on board too. THANK YOU so much, for your delightful breakdown of my FAVORITE band and SINGER in the multiverse! PLEASE do more! If you're up for it, deep breath, a whole album reaction of "Operation: Mindcrime" which is a concept album consisting of one long, very well-told story, with excellent songs throughout! It would be spectacular if you and Julia could do another collaboration....but that may not be possible. Still, LOT'S of great QR songs to explore! "Roads to Madness" (studio version) is Geoff at his most expressive! Ive gone on too long again, thanks again for an amazing reaction! 😝

[@brettkenschaft4239]

This song is probably my most watched on reaction channels and this one was by far the best!! She really knows what she's talking about and pointed out things that I don't think I ever noticed before. Another great vocal performance by Geoff is I Will Remember from the MTV unplugged show.

[@allieandbo]

The way you break down a song is second to none. You dissect the vocal and melodic intricacies while still keeping a level of fun and quirkiness that is enjoyable to watch. Very well done.

[@matthewgoodA1206]

I’ve long thought this is one of the most well-composed, arranged and beautiful power ballads of all time, a triumph of songwriting. And kudos for catching the drum fill that is intended to match “the walls you built… come tumbling down”. I caught that some time ago but most seem to miss it. It’s ultimately another reason why this song is a tremendous composition.

[@oregonchick76]

And at the very end, the low strings play a lullaby: "go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep little baby..." There's just so much to listen to and listen for in this song.

[@R-Mouse2299]

I am looking forward to this one. You are one of the most fun reactors to watch and I certainly appreciate that. I am still anxiously awaiting for the day that you react to these three amazing sisters from Mexico called The Warning. I’m certain you have heard of them because I’m guessing you don’t live under a rock and they are quite an upcoming rock ‘n’ roll group. Make it a great day, peace. ✌️

[@itsmeagain1745]

They are great, but which songs to begin with? Something from the latest album to show where they are now or something older to show what they have developed from? I suppose Metallicas 'Enter Sandman' both old and new versions? That would showcase their growing abilities.

[@R-Mouse2299]

That would be a great suggestion. I would recommend for the new version to check out the Live at the Teatro Metropolitan CDMX version.

[@kayakangler7683]

I've listened to this song thousands of times over the past few decades, and I must say that your musical and lyrical insights have helped to to hear and experience this song in a new and refreshing light. You're brilliant and oh so gorgeous!

Yours is the best reaction video of many, you have such insight and clever observations. Still you maintain your own humour and personality, I really liked this!

[@Roddrummer]

This is why I love this kind of reaction video - it's educational. Queensryche are one of my favourite bands on the planet, I believe Rage for Order through to Promised Land is arguably the best four album stretch in rock music history. But you've made me see/hear things in this song that I didn't notice in the previous 5879 times I've listened to it (especially since I'm not a singer's left arse cheek), so thank you! Please do 'Suite Sister Mary', from Operation: Mindcrime. It's another absolute vocal tour de force from GT, but with the added bonus of the incredible contribution of the fabulous Pamela Moore.

[@aaschmit]

There is something very beautiful about watching some respond to a song that is so important to many. What a lovely video. You're the best, FVM!

Thank you so much, I am so happy you liked it 🥰

[@nosale777]

Geoff tate is the man that changed my whole approach to vocals. As i listened with headphones i felt my own vocal cords fall into place and my resonance unlocked. I went to a classic teacher with walk in the shadows and she laughed at me. I went to an opera trainer and I learned so much in 3 lessons just by hearing him. Take has an amazing bounce in his attack and a "Chirp" in the highs... He is the MAn

[@joesanchez9561]

His back up is mainly the band, Geoff Tate, Chris DeGarmo, Michael Wilton is most likely what you mean.(at around 11:00 mark)

[@pudgydaddy]

My first time on this channel. This girl is wonderful. A terrific reaction/analysis to an equally great song. Her knowledge is to be expected, but her ear is truly a pleasant surprise. Add to that, she's easy on the eyes and has a fun sense of humor. Well done... subscribed!

[@enzonardiello5866]

This is because Geoff Tate is a natural baritone able to get up to 5 octaves and drop suddenly with the bass and then raise his tonality again. Geoff uses the voice as a real instrument of which he is a skilled teacher even today. Queensryche together with Fates Warning, Savatage and Rush and then move to Dream Theater were among the precursors of progressive metal, Chris De garmo himself is not only a great guitarist singer, this band did not have after the early 90s the resonance that really deserved

[@InexpiateShade]

Im gonna be honest & say hearing Voice Fairy savor all of saying,"Cl-AHHH-ssy" like a whole note in a 4/4 measure composition with that jaunty-so-posh, treat to your ears accent, hand to God did the same thing to me as those ambient swells did for her early on🫠. The candor in Voice Fairys' takes have inspired me immensely. So I'm going to come clean and say I skipped back 3 times just to hear the music in that single word☺️

[@tjvertigo]

[@garylagstrom3864]

What I love about true artists is that you can’t fit them into one clear box. I love when people discover that the same group that brought you Into the Eyes of a Stranger also can switch it up entirely and level you with Silent Lucidity. That’s the power and palette of an incredible artist such as Queensryche and the vocal performance of Geoff Tate in particular! Enjoy!

[@rocksonline2]

This was originally just Geoff and acoustic and right before the album release they decided to add the rest of the music… brilliant decision. Great reaction.. new sub…Rock On 👊😎🤘

You are EXTREMELY good at what you do, breaking the song into parts that I wouldn't have "bothered" to notice, had you not so expertly exposed them in this way. Very well done, educational fun! Geoff Tate is definitely one of my top picks for favorite vocalist, and such a great inspiration to so many (amateur/professional) vocalists (such as the wonderful, brilliantly talented Brittney Slayes;)! Thank you, FGM, for this wonderful exploration! Take care!

[@gbssurvivor130]

1- You are straight up beautiful! 2- Queenaryche is straight up BAD ASS!!!

[@jeffwolinski2659]

This song is an absolute masterpiece and this reaction was absolutely entertaining! You should check out Roy Khan, especially from his Kamelot days, similar voice and very influenced by Tate. He was unbelievably good in his prime, anything from the Cold Winter's Night live show is worth watching, although the Elizabeth trilogy would be my first suggestion.

[@nevermore5168]

All I can say is it's about time and I mean that in the most respectable way hun! The man is in my eyes a siren ( yes I said that) and I'm sad that him and the band had a fallen out a few years back. I've tried to listen to the new singer and as much of a great singer he is, he's not Geoff. But I'm glad you finally got the chance to hear his masterpiece!💋🌹

[@j800r_aswell]

The song was written by Guitarist Chris DeGarmo as a lullaby of sorts to his daughter. He developed a fascination with lucid dreaming around the time. Don't quote me on this, but I believe I heard she used to suffer nightmares (although I guess a lot of kids do. I know I did when I was very young.) The song was his way of offering comfort and assuring her he was there. Interestingly, Riley DeGarmo has since grown into a beautiful and talented songstress herself. I believe you can find some of her stuff on here. Some even featuring Chris accompanying her.

[@williamwallace69]

Youre the best reactor ive seen, absolutely loevely and intelligent commentary. Geoff is the best ever

I used to listen to this song when I was in High School in the early 90s when I was in bed. I put it on repeat 1, because it's an awesome song and 2, because it was super soothing, which put me right out.

First: We aren't gorgeous you are! Second: The Unplugged version of this is really good. Might check out I Will Remember Unplugged next. Liked this reaction though. Very detailed. Love it. Anybody Listening is another good song to check out. Enjoy some more Queensryche!

I love your experienced breakdown of this magnificent song. I remember when this song was released, and it is one of my all-time favorite songs. Geoff Tate is a master musical storyteller.

I would listen to your rendition of this classic. Have a great week!

[@Bluesygal]

Great reaction! I really appreciate that the whole band (apart from Scott Rockenfield) worked on their background vocals together. They all went to Geoff Tate's vocal coach to help them with their harmonies. I honestly believe that's why their vocals sounded so great live. I would love to see a collaboration reaction with Julia on Queensryche's "Operation: Livecrime" video or the "Operation: Mindcrime" album in their entirety!

[@rastanz]

Sweet reaction. Another thing about this song is the timing with dynamics, when he sings the lyrics "come tumbling down and a new world will begin" the drummer adds a drum fill descending from the high to low tom drums mimicking something collapsing, perhaps relative to the walls in the fore mentioned line "the walls you built within".

@TheFairyVoiceMother First of all... Lov ya tooooooo!❤ And Julia as well!💓 This was the truly the sweetest reaction video I've ever seen. It was such a pleasure watching it. Thank you, Sweetheart ❤ Julia was absolutely right. Cheer's, dear Julia 💓 Queensryche? What can I say? As a real Rycher ftom beginning on. They are so much more. More than just a progressive Rock or Metal Bend. In their prime they were so much over the top. Mote like a modern version of Mozart, Bach, Beethoven or Vivaldi in my humble opinion. Not just another Rock'n'Roll Bsnd. You can hear it if you listen carefully. How this band sounds like. How they placed everything on their record's. And thos exactly is what's separates them from any other band on this planet. Even Pink Floyd! Because of Geoff Tate's Vocals. And Chrus DeGarmo as well. The only Band that comes close to this band always was FATES WARNING. Because Ray Alder s Voice is pure Gold. So if it's ok I would like to recommending Fates Warning Wish, or Fates Warning - Left Here. Wish was Fates Warning s Silent Lucidity if you will. Ok. Without these orchestral Arrangements. But the closest Song to Silentl Lucidity i in my humble opinion. And please don't let us wait again this long time again for your next Queensryche Reaction!❤ Next Queensryche Song to react to if you ask me? Queensryche - I Will Remember from their 1992 MTV unplugged Session. Oh! By the way... So many people had has recommended Queensryche's Take Hold of the Flame. Truly an amazing Statement. Without doubt. But... There's something more Geoff Tate could do with his Voice. It's Queensryche's U2 Cover Version of Bullet the Blue Sky. No one ever screamed at me asi in this Song - but my Mother! ^^lol^^ And you're The Fairy Voice MOTHER! So...

Nice! Please react to Queen of the Reich, live Tokyo ‘84, same concert as Take Hold of the Flame. I believe you will enjoy!

Loved this song. My friend Steve introduced me to the band back when the album this track was on first came out. Can't remember every track on it now, but I know that this and Empire were a couple of songs off it that I really loved. Sure there were others, but that is a lot of years ago.

[@albertsampson6568]

I am probably their biggest fan. Once I found them, I lost all thought of any other band. Geoff Tate is untouchable in his prime. I Will Remember live MTV unplugged or Killing Words showcases his vocal variety. There's another song called "Out of Mind" that he uses a soft breathy type voice but still hits range. Just insane how he huddles in most everyone's voice break. I do not know if I'm the only person who hears binaural audio frequencies in the strings.

i love this song and i think its because of how much it reminds me of the great era of pink floyd. that voice sounds fantastic.

[@jigabachi73]

Michael Kamen wrote the orchestral part - the man was a genius!

[@alanzimmerman1674]

If you want to see what it looks like when someone is truly and deeply enjoying a little joy in their life, focus on her face during the first section of her listening to this song. So nice to see!

[@bananajoe7526]

They do an unplugged version of their songs.His voice is just incredible even unedited got to check it out.Straight live with no effects of anything.

[@srudine]

I saw another fan suggest this so I am cutting and pasting their wonderful suggestion: I would love to see you react to JINJER - Judgement (& Punishment) - Tatiana Shmayluk - One Take Vocal Performance. It is a wonderful reggae-style song Lolli that is uniquely Tatiana/Jinger. You will love it. Booyah!

QUEENSRYCHE was a grossly underrated band. They didn't get much airplay in the Midwest (where I grew up) but discovered them as an adult. This particular song is highly emotional.

[@erix5184]

I remember hearing this song on the radio all the time as a kid, this was one of the first cassette tapes I ever owned. I got the album on vinyl for Christmas last year, brings back so many memories!

[@frankespinoza9]

[@carlbunner5515]

There is a live recording of this song at an awards show

[@GHmorenos]

Queensfloyd we called it when it came out...Comfortably Numb vibes. Always loved it. :)

[@davidwells8977]

"I Will Remember" MTV acoustic live version, next please.

[@richardchocolas8800]

Now you understand what Julia was talking about when she said to listen to this song to get Geoff's full range

[@HARPERSSON]

OMG...I just caught the bit about vocal ascending mallisma (?). I worry about that stuff all the time in my performances!! This is the first time I've found someone who addressed it. Thanks again.
