They say it was the end of metal era, yet I find so many teenagers today prefer to listen to these than most of todays music. Not only did the words touch our hearts and connected to different situations we might be experiencing in different moments of our lives. But also these crazy haired, usually drunk young kids were musical geniuses! They created magic on stage! The sounds they blended together in perfect harmony. Groups that are rarely compared to except for a few of todays musicians in terms of the feelings and emotions they could instill in their listeners. So may songs today are empty and dense when it comes to words unfourtunatelly. This amazing vocalist really is amazing even today he still can hit crazy notes! Also, it is evident that metal never had an end, though perhaps for a time it moved away from the mainstream and gave way to other new different sounds, it still remained! I have a wide range of music that I enjoy ocasionally from tropical, latin, pop, some reggae and rap. But in my heart, metal lives and thrives! It is my favorite! From lyrics full of meaning to the true admiration for gifted vocalists and just enjoyment of the sounds. Yes I can listen to them all but what I play when I just want to be happy is metal. And though the dont always have long hair and makeup, todays metal groups still have soul and great talent! They have evolved visually but you can tell that their heart is there and they are real! This is why they can be sucessful, because they can connect! Thank you for this video! It was great!

It really wasn't Mike's fault simply those guys came out late in the '80s metal era not enough time on the scene I guess cuz we all know what happened around 92 93

@@rogue1537 I know a lot of younger people who really love the music better too but what happened all of a sudden you didn't even hear it on the radio I want to say by late 92 93 you didn't hear much the Seattle invasion came in . It wasn't overall the end of metal but for that particular style in my opinion the best style. kind of was over.

Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy I was listening to the studio version, but I was noticing how he goes up in volume a lot when he switches from head voice to falsetto. He does certainly seem to have good breath control and I think the choice is probably deliberate. But do you think it is a little jarring? I had a vocal coach in college who worked with me on evening out the passagio and moving between registers smoothly and without a change in volume or drastic jump in tone. So that’s what I’m thinking of. I wonder if you can comment on the technique he’s using to switch from falsetto to head voice to chest voice. Thanks!

Yeah he was right in there with a handful rock/metal signers of the time that had an incredible range and sang songs like there was no tomorrow. These guys (Axl Rose, Dale Thompson Sebastian Bach, Mike Matijevic, Michael Sweet) were so incredible in the vocal delivery that no one could ever truly fill in for them if/when they couldn't make a concert due to illness/injury etc, other than perhaps, if one of the guys of this same handful were to fill in for each other which most definitely would have been interesting but unfortunately we were never lucky enough to have seen such as thing. 80's/90's metal was the last musical genre that lent itself perfectly to be the vehicle through which to showcase the vocal abilities, prowess, fireworks and passion of the male voice at its peak.

It's very easy to sing flat live due to the vocalist's ability to hear accurate pitch. It varies from venue to venue. Stage monitors and acoustics often deceive the ear. I've often encountered this phenomenon as a lead singer and, up until in-ear monitors became popular, I would often intentionally sing sharp a cent or two in order to counter this problem. Even playing lead guitar and bass can be difficult without good monitor representation that cuts through the venue's reflective acoustics.
