    Imagine how it was for those of us who were in the audiences of all the Queensryche concerts in the 80s and 90s. It was stunning. I remember standing and closing my eyes, listening to the sound of Geoff Tate's voice bouncing off speakers and into the air around me. It was mindblowing. The only other time I heard anyone come close to the same tremendous sound that surrounded you was listening to Ann Wilson during a Heart concert. The best part of the 80s and early 90s were the concerts. Queensryche ... oh god, the memories I have. I could go on for hours about how great they were.

      I'll add an amen to what you said! Really enjoyed your reaction to MY favorite band! GEOFF TATE is the singer, SCOTT ROCKENFIELD is the drummer. EDDIE JACKSON, bass. MICHAEL WILTON and CHRIS DEGARMO on lead guitars.
      This is the original line-up (the one I love). Queensryche still exists, but Chris and Geoff are no longer in it. Still there are many fantastic albums for you to explore from the original QR (pronounced: queens-rike).
      And BTW, what little I heard of your voice is quite nice! Please listen to more QR -- you won't be sorry!!

And trust me, in the 80's, he was as good as there was on the planet! The guys are all fantastic at their craft, and very good people to boot.

    Operation Mindcrime (album...not just the song) is a masterful concept album. The story it tells from beginning to end, if you pay attention to/read the lyrics, is very special. That's the reason I hesitate to suggest reacting to a single song. Because literally each song is part of the story, and they kind of all go together. 'Needle Lies', and 'Eyes of a Stranger' are probably two standouts for me, but the whole album is pretty amazing.

    @roqthis68 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One of the things that a lot of people don't know, is Geoff was operatically trained. His intention, was going to be for him to be an opera singer. But by the early 80's, he realized he could take his instrument, apply it to the 80's heavy metal scene, and be a vocalist who was rather unique. You heard it, at the very beginning of this song. He has got such a pure voice, and perfect pitch, that he sounded like no other vocalist, at the time. I don't even think there's anyone current, that has a voice as pure as his. And certainly no one, in the hard rock scene. And here I am, 36 years later, still listening to, and enjoying, their music. And I think that speaks volumes about both, his amazing voice, and the band as a whole. Lots and lots of talent, in that group.

      Metal Church was another kickass Seattle band in the 80s (YES, I know they formed in San Francisco, but Kurt Vanderhoof (who formed the band) moved back to Washington after a year and they "cut their teeth", so to speak, in Seattle). They got sort of passed over, which was kind of criminal IMO. Those guys should be up there on the list with the other 80s metal icons.

    These boys were immensely talented musicians and they brought a craft to their music that far exceeded their years. So much so, that they were signed by EMI when the drummer and the two guitarists were still teenagers, without ever having played a live show. No joke. Don't forget folks, this concert in Japan was before the release of their first full length LP "The Warning". The people in the crowd are there because of a 5-song EP, that's it.

He’s a little shorter on the high E5 notes in length, but still hitting them. I had the honor of playing percussion with his band in an impromptu acoustic jam at a pub in Belfast, doing Silent Lucidity… just amazing.

    Man, I love to watch people hear this for the first time. It just continues to back up what I believed when I heard this song shortly after it came out in 1984. Don’t even kid yourself, brother. I can tell you have a great voice. I can sing a bit too, but this guy is different. The first time I heard this and heard that first high note, I knew he was the best metal singer I had ever heard. It is 37 years later and there are quite a few people that believe that now, and the numbers are growing. I have seen 23 reactions to this exact video and all but one blew the reviewers away.
    Now for some info. Queensryche (Pronounced Queens Rike) was formed in 1983. They are from the Seattle area. They along with a band called Fates Warning are the originators of what is called Progressive or Prog Metal. This style is very technical, melodious and full of harmony, yet it is still loud and still metal. Many of the singers of this style can hit some serious notes, but no one can do it like this guy. Prog Metal also tends to have very intelligent lyrics and most of the bands do at least one recording where the entire thing is one story. It can be called a concept album or a rock opera, but they are the same thing. This comment is getting long, so I will start another.

It’s really hard to take your eyes off this guy live, and standing up there with 2 shit hot guitarists who in any other band would get all the attention. That’s how impressive GEOFF is live.

    So I'm going to say the same thing about 100 other people said. Listen to Operation Mindcrime in order and keep the lyrics close. it's an amazing story it tells.

    LOL You're expression when he hit the first high note was priceless. THIS is why we don't give warnings. It's always organic when you don't give warning.

    Dive right in to Operation: Mindcrime and Empire - two of the best they ever did with this lineup. Mindcrime is one of the best, if not THE best, concept albums ever. It's right up there with Pink Floyd's "The Wall."

    In the 80's, I loved so many other groups, but when l heard this song on the radio, they became my favorite group. They had several great songs and albums.

    Geoff Tate on vocals, Scott Rockenfield on drums. Scott was good friends with my uncle, they used to visit my mom and I when I was young.

    My dad is a huge rock/metal fan and I am definitely happy he showed me this band. This band is definitely underrated.

    Geoff Tate is one of the BEST vocalists to ever grace a stage and Queensryche are one hell of a progressive metal band.
