One of my favorite songs. I saw them in concert with Bon Jovi when this came out. Sebastian Bach is one of the best vocalists in rock n roll, in my opinion. I’m glad we shared this moment ☺️.
ha! awesome, my first concert, Bon Jovi and Skid Row, Skid Row was the first band i ever saw live, it was amazing! and yes Bach is one of the best front men/rock singers ever
@@corrob ....... That tour was the first time for me to see SR and BJ. My very first concert ever was Journey in 1983, when they played for 3 sold out shows in Houston (I went to the last 2 shows, Journey is my most favorite group!!!! I love them!!!). And my very first heavy metal concert was Iron Maiden, 6th row on the flood!!! Not to bad for a first metal concert, if I do say so myself!!....lol...
Every 10 years I think music reached the bottom of the well and can't go worst but I admit they surprised me again with that new era of fake musicians, robot voices and singers who can't sing 😆 Even metal sucks now. I miss albums like Subhuman Race (I liked the "power" Skid Row)
Actually, there is an auto tune effect on his vocal channel. Listen closely you can hear the corrections…in fact it’s too noticeable and it’s not doing him any favors….
@@dirtyandnasty9011 Musical evolution had it's peak in the two centuries around 1800. After that, it went rapidly all the way down to it's all time low in today's crap and shit "music"
His voice causes such a physical reaction: cold chills, tightening of certain body parts, and tears. How many people can do that? My Lord I miss the 80s
Watching a woman who has devoted her life to music hear and see Sebastian Bach for the first time is like watching a babys face as he take his first step lol. It was really beautiful to watch her react to one of the best voices ever recorded
It seems as if all these "vocal coaches" never understood real singing until they heard real music such Hair Metal from the 80s and 90s. I wonder what rock they all were hiding in before they heard real music and singing.
@@kevynhansyn2902 They were hiding under some rock, all right.... But not the music rock!!!! I'm also amazed how these people never heard these songs!! Or maybe that's just some acting for the videos...
@@markperroni69 oh indeed, there are some "acting" as if they never heard these songs of this style of music before (insert the hundreds of Twitchers that ALWAYS over act on dumb stuff for views). But least we know that real rock and metal exist. Even Japan has a HUGE metal scene and its gorgeous.
@@kevynhansyn2902 Metal came back!! The Grunge movement died, or committed suicide, or overdosed... That's what was killing metal in the mid 90s. I know... I was there!! I was a speed metal drummer in L.A. from 94 to 97. And metal was flatlining.... But now, Grunge is dead, and metal rose back from the ashes!!! \m/ \m/
Hands down one of the best. I personally liked him and his voice the best. (On stage, because off stage, well he does what he wants and sometimes may not be the best way to act in show business lol) But they say Axl Rose is the best because he has the best range. Axl can hit the highest and lowest notes out of anyone. And just think, Axl quit singing lessons early on. Imagine what Axl could have done if he had a coach? But Axl smh Just think of what Guns n Roses coulda done if Axl wasn’t a punk? (And I like Axl, bit he did punk like actions)
He wasn't underrated at all. Hugely regarded as one of, if not the best during that time and well respected as a vocalist. One of the reasons Slave to the Grind debuted at #1 when it came out.
@@EnslaveTheWorld Michael Jackson sold milions more but back then I never met a cat that would admit it. And that was the same for Skid Row. At the time they were considered posers and werent respected like a Crue or Ozzy. Hell they are now playing free concerts at casino's while other 80/90's bands are doing stadium only tours. GTFO.
@@therealmillerman They were considered Posers at the time and now play free shows at casino's while less talented singers are doing stadium only tours.
I was in the Army stationed in Korea, these guys came to open a tower Records store, when they saw me and buddie were Americans, they all shook our hands, then after the opening, they invited us upstairs and we drank a few beers, hung out for a while, and they asked us a lot of questions about the Army, real genuine guys.
Sebastian Bach stopped by our local karaoke show about 10 years ago (lived nearby). He sang a set (you have not yet heard the top of his range). Then he joined several of us (self included) in singing our karaoke tunes. He hung out with the gang for a while. Very personable down to earth guy. And TALL. Shizzle he's a long one. Sorry to report he was wearing a shirt.
I think she's utterly enchanting! She won my heart on her reviews of Spanish music. But, this ... I don't know how old you are but, for guys of my generation, hearing a pro speak like that about the music we caught so much hell for liking when we were young is just ... f*cking cathartic. We just KNEW this was good shit and I mean really good shit damn what the older people said and, by God we were right!
@@redacted5035 Yeah... he was amazing IN THE STUDIO but could be VERY hit or miss live. Seems to be one of those guys that has to pamper his voice. I saw him live a few times and he was pretty disappointing. But throw a CD in the player and Sebastian was great with moments of absolute brilliance!
@@brett22bt and listen to! I don't judge him though, time is a nasty bitch, attacks face, body, vocal chords! At least he still has good hair, better than my bald spot!!!
I got to party with him and some of his buds back in the late 80's groupies in Phoenix AZ. TIMES I WILL NEVER FORGET! I will never forget you Bruce Kaiser!
Sebastien was best friends with the father of my children. He's from Canada and has lived in LA for a long time. Thanks for the awesome review, I also love this music.
I really love how you have fun with your reactions. You really analyse the music in depth, and yet you can still appreciate a fine looking man with amazing stage presence :P
Can you even imagine what state Bieber would be in if he spent one night partying with DLR and Motley Crue? Holy crap. He'd be dead in seconds. They just don't make em like they used to.
The Best concert, man I wish I was there!! I Love Sebastian Bach so much!! It says Youth Gone Wild on his arm, another Great song!! I'm obsessed with Sebastian!! Omg!!!
I saw them as a high schooler back in the 90s. I couldn't move my head the next day.. totally worth it though!! Such a beautiful man with an even more beautiful voice. I still sing along.
One of the best vocalists of my time. When he reached up into those upper notes with that powerful distortion it is absolutely euphoric for the listener.
Sebastian Bach is a trained vocalist. His mother was a chior mistress and he was singing from an early age. He has performed in musicals on Broadway and elswhere. He's amazing.
yes, when seb told his parents he wasn't going to university and instead was interested in metal, his folks said okay but you're going to be taught professionally. oh and to rebecca, he's canadian.
His arm tattoo says "Youth Gone Wild". That's the song that propelled them into the spotlight, and I wouldn't necessarily complain if you reacted to it. =)
yes I was there and watching it. I saw this concert and it was amazing. Some of the dates on this tour were bad and some were good but I managed to catch it on a good night.
Seen them July 8th 91 at Reunion arena in Dallas. Still the greatest show I have ever been to. Him and Axl were vocally perfect that night. So much power. Most of the crowd was in tears when he did this song. He was definitely feeling it that night and it showed!!
Love the visceral reaction when Sebastian walked on stage. Eye brows jumped to the top of your head. Dude had a voice like very few others before or after. I do think listening to the live version did a disservice though. The album version really captured his range and intensity. The reverb in the stadium didn't do him justice in an old recording.
Yes that's true back in the days where music is carefully masterpieces specially in metal band like skid row and the lead singer Sebastian Bach his voice is truely in rock industry.
As a rocker who grew up loving Skid Row, I love her reaction and analysis of the song. Saw them in concert when this came out, loved it then, love it now and love that someone else whos hearing this song for the first time loves it! Rock on !
Don't Let Her Speak Y’all do know that song is about Duff from GnR don’t you? The two were very good buddy’s then. (Maybe now too?) So maybe could be one of the reasons he did that with voice?
So many highly talented singers in the eighties metal bands. Sebastian Bach being the best. I'm so glad I was a teen in the eighties and got to witness all these talented musicians blowing the roof of arenas with their music. Today's vocalists could learn a lot from watching these metal Gods perform. Everybody seems so monotone today lacking the range and ferocity that these guys delivered.
Hi Goochma! I both agree, and disagree with certain parts of your comment... I TOTALLY agree that being a teenager in the 80's was the best! Metal Gods... Pop Gods... New Wave... EVERYTHING was popular, and socially acceptable... HOWEVER... Sebastian being the BEST is what I disagree with... Yes, he had amazing range, both natural and falsetto. And yes again to re-iterate, the 80's had some of the "COOLEST" and most powerful voices in the music biz... BUT... as far as the 80's go, listen to Geoff Tate from Queensryche... Truly one of the most talented vocalists in music period... Sebastian could never sing a classical opera concert, then rip off his tuxedo and blast the most amazing rock vocals of all time... Same with Bruce Dickenson from Iron Maiden, or God forbid we forget Freddie Mercury... Sorry to pick apart your comment... but... the BEST... Nah, not really
@@scottdillin1322 I was a big Queensryche fan as well. I loved all metal. Still do. I agree Geoff Tate is an amazing vocalist. Operation Live Crime is evidence of that. But we are talking two different styles of metal. Queensryche was like a rock and roll opera and Geoff Tates voice reflected that. Skid Row was more of a fun and in your face, party band and Sebastian Bach's voice reflected that. Both singers are great at what they do. But opinion is subjective, and we all have one.
People talk about technical capability so much but the thing about Baz is that he really FELT and MEANT what he was saying. He was as intense and honest emotionally as he was powerful and technical. He is easily the most emotionally powerful vocalist of that entire era and one of the best ever.
I was a high school senior in '91, playing this same music in a hard rock band for all of my friends. The girls didn't mind it either... I almost got a bit teary eyed watching all of your reactions to this. It makes me happy to know that you've experienced the same emotions we did back then. It was a great time being young and full of rock and roll energy. I loved this video.
"What a specimen!" LOL! As a straight man, a man's man, I gotta admit, everyone's gotta admit- that's one good lookin' dude! Also, at 10:11 , it's so cool to see a young someone today have the same reaction that I had 30+ years ago.
Wow!!! You absolutely nailed it!!! Sebastian going from soft voice to rock voice, is very difficult to do that well, and especially doing it live. I like the little things that you pick up on. Great reaction!!!
Late 80s and early 90s was epic. Well from what I can remember lol. We had a blast back then before we had to adult. Hammer jacks in Baltimore was our venue to see these bands when they first hit the scene.
I know this is about the vocals (and Sebastian Bach is awesome), but I'm very happy that they electrified in the middle to let us hear Scotti Hill's wonderful, bluesy, bendy solo. It's one of my favorite guitar solos from an era that had no shortage of amazing guitar solos.
Not a guitarist, but noticed how perfect it was!! I was hoping it would go from acoustic to full band because of the solo. His harmonies with Bach were awesome, too!
Easily one of the tastiest 80's rock solos bar none. So many players butcher their solos live because they want to change it up...if it ain't broke don't fix it. He nailed it!
Oh lord...in his prime, Sebastian Bach's singing was simply UNTOUCHABLE. And with those looks, that hair, the charisma and height to go with that ridiculous voice? They couldn't have made a better rock frontman if they carved them out of stone.
I saw them with GnR 3 times that summer. One I had seats right up at the stage and Sebastian got down and sang this to me. I was 18 years old and it was a dream come true 😂 My boyfriend (who ended up my hubby) was so mad. But it was part of the act Im sure. An amazing memory from so long ago.
I appreciate this so much because these bands used to be underrated musically in their time because they were filthy rockstars. Nut we always knew. WE KNEW these were proper musicians. I still hear this song and cry.
Your reaction to Bach walking on stage was the reaction of almost every single teen girl when we saw the video for 18 And Life! 🙃 Bach was quite the specimen back then and still is now. Even with all the other amazing voices of the 80s (Neil, Snider, Sweet, Elliott, Rose, DuBrow, Bon Jovi), Bach's voice was unique amongst them and, in my opinion, the best. I still laugh at him forgetting the words of his own song. 🙃 Bach is the best! ❤
Great mentions of Michael Sweet and Dee Snider. The Price, to me, is Twisted Sister’s best song, and the last note Michael hits on Makes Me Wanna Sing, is just the perfect ending to that song.
To each his own, but 'still is now'? If looking like a 65 year old woman is still good looking, then no thanks. Yes he was on my walls back then, but the years weren't kind to Grandma Bach, but I don't find him hot anymore. Phil Collen from Def Leppard is 65 and looks younger and better than Bach. Jmo
One of our best exports to the US. He was the best celebrity to play "themselves" on Trailer Park Boys. His model train rivalry with Patrick Swayze was legendary
The first reaction vid of yours I saw was Slaughter. Then I searched Skidrow on your channel bc I knew if you heard them your reaction would be genuine pleasure. Bach was amazing and I miss that era of music bc of vocalists like him. Damn these onions 😭
Sebastian Bach is a powerhouse vocalist, over 4 years of classical vocal training at a young age, he also did a massive 10-year long sting on broadway (1996-2006). Check out more of the first 3 Skid Row albums.
May I suggest “Quicksand Jesus”, “Wasted Time” , “Monkey Business”, or “Slave to the Grind” Bach has one of the greatest voices in Rock ever! Incredibly powerful and controlled.
Rebecca, great review once again! You must be reading my mind with your choices, love the bands and the songs you choose. I know the fans are requesting them, but you're ultimately making the choice. Anyway, I think skid row was quite underrated. They had so many good songs, but this is probably my favorite. The instruments, the lyrics and his delivery is perfection. Sebastian Bach is full of energy, but you can really sense the emotions in the words. Beautiful, brilliant song!
One of my favorite songs. I saw them in concert with Bon Jovi when this came out. Sebastian Bach is one of the best vocalists in rock n roll, in my opinion. I’m glad we shared this moment ☺️.
Agreed! My three personal fav (male) rock singers:
Steve Perry
Geoff Tate
Sebastian Bach
Saw Skid Row with Bon Jovi that same year, in Houston, Tx!! Great concert from both bands!

Was that the Milton Keynes Bowl show, with Bon Jovi, Skid Row and Vixen? Now that was an amazing show. OMG Vixen, now they were hot lol
No autotune, no talkbox, no vocal trickery... just pure Bach.
Bach's one of my favourites, although being from the 90's his voice's got all the trickery you may imagine, but well used on a great voice.
True that bro🤘🏼

I’d say Chris Cornell was up there and Vedder to a lesser extent. Once Buckley came though to me he took the cake

Bruce Dickenson is no punk either. Lol
In a Darkened Room by Skid Row is his best vocal track, goes all over his smorgasbord of range.

Disagree. His best work was on Gilmore Girls.... (joking, joking)

YOUTH... GONE... WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILD!!! 👏🏻👏🏻💫💫💫
WE ARE THE YOUTH GONE WILD!
Or 18 And Life...
I Remember You, Youth Gone Wild, Monkey Business, all great, clean recordings and show Bach's range and talent.
This song still makes my hair stair on end after all these years just like the first time.
He uses his voice like a guitarist switching pickups. It's such skills
and there was no auto tune....just pure emotion and talent!.
He looks like he's totally wasted here! Like really wasted. Lol
Not true here… there is a vocal effect which is auto shifting his pitch. He doesn’t need it though
Yeah, Skid Row in their prime were amazing.

As a rocker who grew up loving Skid Row, I love her reaction and analysis of the song. Saw them in concert when this came out, loved it then, love it now and love that someone else whos hearing this song for the first time loves it! Rock on !
I saw them twice on this tour. So impressive…what a time to be alive 😁
Sebastian Bach: Real Life Disney Prince 🙏♥️
Skid Row - Wasted Time, his best vocal performance.
FYEAH
Yes but quicksand jesus too!!!
In a darken room as well that whole album is top notch.
Don't Let Her Speak
Y’all do know that song is about Duff from GnR don’t you?
The two were very good buddy’s then. (Maybe now too?)
So maybe could be one of the reasons he did that with voice?
So many highly talented singers in the eighties metal bands. Sebastian Bach being the best. I'm so glad I was a teen in the eighties and got to witness all these talented musicians blowing the roof of arenas with their music. Today's vocalists could learn a lot from watching these metal Gods perform. Everybody seems so monotone today lacking the range and ferocity that these guys delivered.
Hi Goochma! I both agree, and disagree with certain parts of your comment... I TOTALLY agree that being a teenager in the 80's was the best! Metal Gods... Pop Gods... New Wave... EVERYTHING was popular, and socially acceptable... HOWEVER... Sebastian being the BEST is what I disagree with... Yes, he had amazing range, both natural and falsetto. And yes again to re-iterate, the 80's had some of the "COOLEST" and most powerful voices in the music biz... BUT... as far as the 80's go, listen to Geoff Tate from Queensryche... Truly one of the most talented vocalists in music period... Sebastian could never sing a classical opera concert, then rip off his tuxedo and blast the most amazing rock vocals of all time... Same with Bruce Dickenson from Iron Maiden, or God forbid we forget Freddie Mercury... Sorry to pick apart your comment... but... the BEST... Nah, not really
@@scottdillin1322 I was a big Queensryche fan as well. I loved all metal. Still do. I agree Geoff Tate is an amazing vocalist. Operation Live Crime is evidence of that. But we are talking two different styles of metal. Queensryche was like a rock and roll opera and Geoff Tates voice reflected that. Skid Row was more of a fun and in your face, party band and Sebastian Bach's voice reflected that. Both singers are great at what they do. But opinion is subjective, and we all have one.
People talk about technical capability so much but the thing about Baz is that he really FELT and MEANT what he was saying. He was as intense and honest emotionally as he was powerful and technical.
He is easily the most emotionally powerful vocalist of that entire era and one of the best ever.
I think Rebecca needs a cigarette, after watching that.
me to haha
@@KatGamez I'm not gay...but... me too
@@kikzurass haha
🤣 I luv u darlings🍻🚬
Yasss!! He's so delicious!!❤🤘
I was a high school senior in '91, playing this same music in a hard rock band for all of my friends. The girls didn't mind it either... I almost got a bit teary eyed watching all of your reactions to this. It makes me happy to know that you've experienced the same emotions we did back then. It was a great time being young and full of rock and roll energy. I loved this video.
DutyCalls73 i was a Senior as well in 91 and a drummer in a band with my best friends. I agree that was a time to remember.
Rebecca you are a sweetheart and I really appreciate your honesty. That's what make great teachers and coaches. WINNER!
Oh I love all of your reactions Rebecca! I’m sure I had exactly the same reaction when Sebastian walked on the stage, holy shit! He was beautiful! 🔥😜
"What a specimen!" LOL! As a straight man, a man's man, I gotta admit, everyone's gotta admit- that's one good lookin' dude! Also, at 10:11 , it's so cool to see a young someone today have the same reaction that I had 30+ years ago.
I'm with you Kip I'm straight as a man can possibly get but yeah that was one pretty dude
@@rogerjohnson5644 Conspiracy theory: Sebastian Bach and Daryl Hannah are the same person! LOL
Like Elvis in the comeback special. If you can’t admit how good looking he is, something wrong.
As also a totally 100% straight dude I totally agree one handsome dude indeed
Guys want to be him, girls want to be with him
Rebecca, you are quite a specimen yourself i have to say honestly
Right?! She is freaking sexy as hell
@@tonybreeden863 Rebecca is a very Very attractive lady
She looks great... but she's kindda crazy chick. Damn, Im so curious...
Quite easy on the eyes
@@alexinc00 i am not saying she is crazy. I am saying, yeah the best ones in bed have been the nutty ones in my life. Silver lining to that cloud
Wow!!! You absolutely nailed it!!! Sebastian going from soft voice to rock voice, is very difficult to do that well, and especially doing it live. I like the little things that you pick up on. Great reaction!!!
I saw them this summer when I was 15. I was obsessed with Sebastian. 💜
One of the best voices from 80s rock. He’s still amazing. I believe he was all of 19-20yrs old here. Amazing vibrato. Just stunning.
Sebastian Bach is a LEGEND.. HANDS DOWN
1:09 Dat feeling when you see Sebastian Bach for the first time 😂
bit different in 2020 though
Exactly!! 😂😂
Alcoholism takes its toll
@@4Realzeaz drugs as well.😞😒
Late 80s and early 90s was epic. Well from what I can remember lol. We had a blast back then before we had to adult. Hammer jacks in Baltimore was our venue to see these bands when they first hit the scene.
I know this is about the vocals (and Sebastian Bach is awesome), but I'm very happy that they electrified in the middle to let us hear Scotti Hill's wonderful, bluesy, bendy solo. It's one of my favorite guitar solos from an era that had no shortage of amazing guitar solos.
It's pretty iconic, and he manages to put about every trick in the book into a short solo without making it cheesy.
I miss the rock ballads of those days. LA Guns were my jam
@@madddog6790
He sure does.Unison bends, muted sweep arpeggios, vibrato, and, I believe, a whammy dive bomb. In under 30 seconds.
Not a guitarist, but noticed how perfect it was!!
I was hoping it would go from acoustic to full band because of the solo.
His harmonies with Bach were awesome, too!
Easily one of the tastiest 80's rock solos bar none. So many players butcher their solos live because they want to change it up...if it ain't broke don't fix it. He nailed it!
I have been Skid Row Fan since they started out when I was 14 years old. I still listen everyday to the music.. Today im 49 :)
Oh lord...in his prime, Sebastian Bach's singing was simply UNTOUCHABLE.
And with those looks, that hair, the charisma and height to go with that ridiculous voice? They couldn't have made a better rock frontman if they carved them out of stone.
He had the most gorgeous hair. That man was just beautiful.
@FatalPies you are have a laugh...Geoff Tate couldn't lace Seb Bach's shoes
Rebecca!! You are amazing and out of this world!! Thanks for sharing your reaction and knowledge!! Regards from México!!
He is my all time favorite rocker. I’ve met Sebastian twice, he is amazing. I will always love him. His voice is unlike any other
You should analyze Wasted Time. Uhhhhh it's a roller-coaster
YESSSS and his vocals
Oh and 18 to life
Wasted time is amazing!!!🙌
YES!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wasted Time is unforgettable!
He's Canadian.
He's done Broadway.
He is an amazing vocalist.
That's Right
Really??? He's Canadian???
Yep, from the Toronto area
Even did some beer commercials!
@@courtneywhite8470 Peterborough,Ontario ,Canada to be exact
I love seeing you love this... Such a period in music history that can never be duplicated.
They were so epic live, I am glad I got a chance to see them in their prime for sure. I loved growing up in the 80's
Definitely, A Rock Vocal Angel, his singing brings me to tears.
I saw them with GnR 3 times that summer. One I had seats right up at the stage and Sebastian got down and sang this to me. I was 18 years old and it was a dream come true 😂 My boyfriend (who ended up my hubby) was so mad. But it was part of the act Im sure. An amazing memory from so long ago.
I appreciate this so much because these bands used to be underrated musically in their time because they were filthy rockstars. Nut we always knew. WE KNEW these were proper musicians. I still hear this song and cry.
"Physically he's very pleasing to the eye..." quickly keep talking to make sure that gets buried. LOL
Your reaction to Bach walking on stage was the reaction of almost every single teen girl when we saw the video for 18 And Life! 🙃 Bach was quite the specimen back then and still is now.
Even with all the other amazing voices of the 80s (Neil, Snider, Sweet, Elliott, Rose, DuBrow, Bon Jovi), Bach's voice was unique amongst them and, in my opinion, the best.
I still laugh at him forgetting the words of his own song. 🙃 Bach is the best! ❤
@Jay Deno Yeah. I still find him beautiful. Has he aged and gotten a bit flabby? Yeah, but so have I...
Great mentions of Michael Sweet and Dee Snider. The Price, to me, is Twisted Sister’s best song, and the last note Michael hits on Makes Me Wanna Sing, is just the perfect ending to that song.
" still is now " ......oh ....hell .....NO !!
He has aged like milk .
To each his own, but 'still is now'? If looking like a 65 year old woman is still good looking, then no thanks. Yes he was on my walls back then, but the years weren't kind to Grandma Bach, but I don't find him hot anymore. Phil Collen from Def Leppard is 65 and looks younger and better than Bach. Jmo
He really does have an amazing voice. I swear I've watched this live video before but I just now picked up that he did a Jeff Keith at the end of it.
I thought it was quite funny watching you and then enjoying the video of him I don't know any one like this he's just amazing
One of our best exports to the US. He was the best celebrity to play "themselves" on Trailer Park Boys. His model train rivalry with Patrick Swayze was legendary
I seen him live in October 2019. I was 10 feet from the stage and he still sounds really good.
I get the chills when he raises his hand to brush the hair out of his face and nail that huge scream near the end!
The first reaction vid of yours I saw was Slaughter. Then I searched Skidrow on your channel bc I knew if you heard them your reaction would be genuine pleasure. Bach was amazing and I miss that era of music bc of vocalists like him. Damn these onions 😭
A vocal angel of rock! Perfect definition!
I can watch him over and over again
Sebastian Bach's vocals are unreal. hearing the studio recording is one thing but live and you can tell he has the skills.
Mr Sebastian Bach, arguably the prettiest man ever in rock n roll.
And incredible to see live.
Sebastian Bach is a powerhouse vocalist, over 4 years of classical vocal training at a young age, he also did a massive 10-year long sting on broadway (1996-2006). Check out more of the first 3 Skid Row albums.
May I suggest “Quicksand Jesus”, “Wasted Time” , “Monkey Business”, or “Slave to the Grind”
Bach has one of the greatest voices in Rock ever! Incredibly powerful and controlled.
In A Darkened Room
Monkey business live at SNL was one hell of a performance. Say what you will about "hair metal", that shit was entertaining.
Yup
Again, this woman needs a Cigarette after this video.
Shoot I'm a guy and I need one
She orgasms a lot seeing those metal bands haha
Hahaha, that's hilarious
😂 think we all need one watching him 💕
@florida suburban homesteading 110% Guaranteed.
I was there, in that era ! Met him 30 years later in my home town; small town pub gig, HUGE Rock Star!!
RVA said it all really 😊👍🏼🤘🏼
Omg Sebastian Bach in his day was drop dead gorgeous WOW!
Hahaha “what a specimen” you’re adorable. And I love how you gave huge credit where its due. Instead of finding some bogus thing to complain about.
I was there. 1st gig as a 16 year old. Great day!
Rebecca, great review once again! You must be reading my mind with your choices, love the bands and the songs you choose. I know the fans are requesting them, but you're ultimately making the choice. Anyway, I think skid row was quite underrated. They had so many good songs, but this is probably my favorite. The instruments, the lyrics and his delivery is perfection. Sebastian Bach is full of energy, but you can really sense the emotions in the words. Beautiful, brilliant song!
