What Makes This Singer Great? Steven Tyler - Aerosmith
When speaking of great singers, Steven Tyler certainly has to be included in the conversation.
A true rock star through and through, on top of being an unmistakable character, he also has written some of the most timeless music of this generation.
Steven was called the Screamin' Demon in his early Aerosmith days and his onstage energy made him one of the most recognizable frontmen in music.
Tyler had to undergo throat surgery like many other well known artists and after having to go through extensive training to get his voice back, he’s singing better than ever.
In today’s montage of performances, we’ll look at a great example of how he is able to walk into any situation and command the room.
I hope you all enjoy the video and again please be sure to share what you thought made Steven great!

I'm from Boston and I grew up in Plymouth MA. I've met Steven a number of times at the mall in Kingston. The first time we were in line to get tickets at the movies and he and his wife were in front of me and my buddy. My buddy is a HUGE Aerosmith fan and started fanboying like crazy and was like "dude should I ask him for his autograph?". I had to talk him out of it because he would end up causing a scene when Steven is just out with his lady for an afternoon at the movies. Steven overheard our conversation, turned around thanked me and shook my hand. Oh and he ended up giving my buddy his autograph too. Great guy!

[@kentamplin]

Very cool! I'm sure he appreciated that!

[@annalizaramos7071]

You should react to ken tamplin dude. He's a great singer too.

Great comment

[@karend169]

He's 72 years old and still performing. Still has that swag, still mesmerizing. Toys in the attic, timeless. Love the country version of cryin" . There is not enough space here, to write all the things I love about this man.

Absolutely, karend169!

Next: Jon Bon Jovi! I'm really curious to why he lost his voice.

[@kentamplin]

Thank you! 😀

[@lisalindsey7991]

Be nice when you do comments on Jon Bon Jovi! Steven Tyler is awsome always.

[@carolynsimmons3087]

Steve Perry also. I mean you can tell it's still him, but what happened? Age?damage?his album "Traces" is mostly bad, and I'm a huge Steve Perry fan, but I caught myself skipping ahead trying to find where it got better, it mostly didn't. I don't think I've listened to a whole song on the album.

[@srares502]

he lost his voice because he exaggerated with the concerts

[@joeyjansa7726]

Jon's back!!!

[@lemmh2]

I love that raspy, airy quality of his voice in general, but *wow* he has such a high range. And he's so underrated. I also love how his voice has changed so much over the years, but he can still belt and it sounds amazing! Take care of those pipes, Ken. I wanna come back to this channel in 2040 when you have more subs than Pewdiepie and hear you belt out the classics for us!

[@kentamplin]

Thanks for listening! I appreciate it! 😀

[@jonsavage6314]

@@kentamplinHow about doing a Corey Taylor video?

[@vihaze6725]

I met him once! Nicest and funniest guy, and such a character. You can’t take your eyes off him, he just commands a room. I was also very surprised by how humble he is in person. He seemed really grateful for his success. Super proud to have met him.

He is a great singer, musician and an entertainer! Going on strong after over 40 years! A true legend! 💙

For sure!

[@iancredible1639]

What comes to mind when I think of Steven Tyler: -Way above average singer -Way above average instrumentalist -Way above average songwriter -Style -Longevity Aerosmith was also the first real concert I went to last April! They were great

[@kentamplin]

Awesome!

[@cactusladysouth1000]

Reminds me of the movie Armageddon with Bruce Willis.

[@GuitarWithDofka]

Amazing front person, singer, and song writer. A true rock n roll Legend!

[@kentamplin]

Indeed!

[@MsNicoleRR]

In my opinion, nowadays considering his age, his still singing a lot and with quality, way different than the others singers from his age.

[@tinyjennyl2002]

I LOVE Steven Tyler.....I was never very much of an Aerosmith fan until about 15 yrs ago. I got a free ticket from a friend. Walked outta that concert AMAZED!!!! Probably one of THE Best concerts I’ve ever seen in my life.....and I’m 50 yrs old!!!!! Haha

[@kentamplin]

Welcome aboard!

[@liyaandinnamay2501]

I have a huge crush on Steve! His insane vocals and distinctive wild screeches are beyond human cognition. He's a perfect example of charisma and immense style! Not to mention his hilarious on-stage acrobatics. He's absolutely ageless and looks even better with each year. Steve still can hit those incredible notes and sounds sensational. True legend. One of a kind!💓💞💕💝💖💗

[@jeancasagrande3730]

Perfection! He aways compose and record the songs with the maximum effort possible, paying close attention to all the details. His dedication and talent are admirable. He is also charismatic, funny, smart, his songs are deep, funny, there are just, so many qualities, he is certainly my favorite hard rock vocal.

[@kentamplin]

Well said!

[@francinecampione3660]

Soooo love Steven. Met him several times and he is all this and more! Sooo humble and genuine ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kentamplin]

[@Newsonix]

Any Aerosmith fans should check out their live Dream On performance at the MTV 10th anniversary, probably the best Stevens sounded singing this song!! ;P

[@kentamplin]

Thank you! 😀

[@gsrman8834]

That’s been my favourite version always.... by far... the band sounds so theatrical with the orchestra and Tyler sings his head off in that one. I think that’s when his voice was at its very top, top peak. He still kicks ass now though

[@Jay-ot3cq]

Love this one Ken. You do such a great job of breaking down how these singers do what they do. His voice is so unique. Thanks for the great videos, keep them coming. God bless.

[@kentamplin]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@HiroForever]

COOL SHIRT!!! Steven Tyler’s voice is amazing. Just last week I went down a rabbit hole listening to isolated vocals of various artists. His was actually mind blowing. For me, isolated or acoustic vocal is where the rubber REALLY meets the road. Nowhere to hide.

[@kentamplin]

Cool!

[@Boylieboyle]

Holy by crikey did I enjoy that vid, Thank you for uploading man!

[@user-vd1gx6nf2r]

Ive been to many many Aerosmith concerts was so close i had the tassels from his mic in my face. Oh the good old days of no assigned seating. One of my bucket list things is to meet him in person to have a conversation with him. A woman can Dream On ❤ I could meet him at Lake Sunapee harbor. 😊

[@DanielSmith-pq4yc]

Steven tyler is my favourite singer and dream on is my favourite song. He's just so unique I agree with everything you said. Crazy to think he wrote dream on when he was 18

[@kentamplin]

Thanks, Daniel!

[@TVResults]

So many things he does are uniquely Steven and that is why the music lasts..its also chiefly important to believe the singer as they tell their story through the song..and you can clearly see the story is in his soul, that the songs come from his heart, to this day. I also enjoy seeing you enjoy the singers performances as you comment along the way. C.J. Snare from Firehouse and Joey Tempest from Europe come to mind. There are so many. Thanks Ken!

[@Nostaljack]

Only now (as in this earlier this year) is he having any trouble with the high stuff on "Dream On". Just incredible.

[@kentamplin]

He's had an amazing career!

[@Newsonix]

Yeah I’ve noticed he’s struggling a little bit with that lately too. He can do the higher pitched “Dream Ons” and then struggles with the long scream. I can’t imagine the Vegas residency performing numerous nights a week for months straight has helped him much. Hopefully lockdown lets his chords rest a bit.

[@Nissardpertugiu]

@@Newsonix the breath space is quite reduced in that segment to have rest to the long note in pitch ..

[@androth1502]

"I go higher than he does" No, Ken. I don't think you have ever done that. :D

[@kentamplin]

Haha!

[@gizzy2403]

Only Ozzy's been higher than Stephen! Man, Aerosmith has 2 truly b 1 of 🇺🇸 best Rock bandsl🍻🎸🎶

One of my favorite concerts was Aerosmith Done With Mirrors At Joe Louis Arena May 22, 1986. Steve Tyler surviving his drug addiction and still performing in 2020 at a great level is mind blowing. Let the music do the talking🕺

[@jackyl8259]

Hey Ken u really nailed stevens profile as u've seen from my previous comments I grew up through the 70's n 80's era.Steven is one of those unique voices as well as he was none 4 his humour n nuttiness,he was class clown during some of his skool yrs.There were actually some fights in the skool yard over which band was the best,I can never pin it down 2 just one band,my luv of musical versatility won't allow it,I did follow Aerosmith huge in high skool but still never can pick just one band.Ken I could make a list but of all the singers I like 2 here u critique but there isn't enuff page lol!but for now heres some great talent that doesn't get enuff recognition. Rik Emmet from TRIUMPH, one of the masters of the double-neck guitar and the electric acoustic I luv listening to the electric acoustic it reminds me of a voice through the microphone,u get that loud crisp sound that echos.I send some more later Ken.

[@kentamplin]

Rock on!

[@NigraXXL]

He was on Joe Rogan's podcast recently. He shared his story of how he started using distortion to sing. He recalled Aerosmith's first album with regret, and said he took inspiration from Janis Joplin to start singing with more soul and character afterwards. Great artists inspire other great artists!

[@kentamplin]

Thanks for sharing that with us, Lucas!

But definetly i love his voice since his first albm w Aerosmith to his last solo album. He is a living legend, even at his 70s age he stills rock more than ever. I absolutely love his performances on the stage, his falsetto, his lyrics, his personality, everything. And i'm very happy to be able to enjoy his music at least through videos on KZbin!
