You need to be clear though - Soto ONLY does the parts where the "original singer" is singing (before he was fired) in the movie. Miljenko Matijevic does all the parts where Mark Wahlberg is singing. The "new singer" parts.
voltaspeeder17 If you get a chance, check out Twisted Witch on my page. We did a couple covers with Chris Gillen (Tokyo Blade/Overloaded) on vocals, with Steve Lane on guitar, Jason Quartuccio on bass, and myself on drums. But yeah, Jeff is the real deal for sure. That new Sons Of Apollo music sounds incredible.
This song is by the fictional Steel Dragon though (from the movie Rock Star) which Jeff did the voice-over for, the Dio song is quite different and much faster.
Jack Vai: Nils Patrik Johansson perhaps? His voice is almost like a parody on Dio... "sounds more Dio than Dio himself" kind of thing sometimes. Astral Doors / Lion's Share / Wuthering Heights. watch?v=FrarH_VcAF4 (live.. doesn't seem to have made any Dio covers in studio) Bonus track: LS also make a decent cover of a good old City Boy song: watch?v=7e1YLOBuUQs
I saw journey when I was about 11 and JSS was filling in for their singer (before arnel). Different gig than his voice but he absolutely crushed it. Dude is unreal
@fryinbrian71 You might know this already, but it was Matijevic who did the vocals for Wahlberg. I even contacted Jeffs manager, and he said: "Jeff originally auditioned to supply the voice for Wahlberg but producers found his voice ‘too mature and seasoned’ to emulate the ‘newbie’ so it was decided Jeff’s voice would be for the original singer of ‘Steel Dragon’, Bobby Beers."
I was at this gig it was on a Sunday afternoon 2/6/02 he came on stage at 5::40pm and went off about 7:15pm. It was also the Queen's sliver jubbile day and England played in the world cup in Japan. What a day i had one of the best days i've ever had. It was awesome.
@AceOfHeart2012:I agree with you totally. A rich, full and unique voice. Rarely heard a very 'off' performance from him. Gotta admire the way he's kept himself in shape, maintained his voice to stay in the biz thru the ups and downs when he coulda faded away after YJM. He's a 'lifer' though and got work ethic.
ladyredlight3, i agree with you totally.I have bene a HUGE fan of Jeff for a while now, and with all his accomplishments he should have WAY more recognition than he has...especially here in the States. But the fans that love him are loyal and support his music. :) what I wouldn't give to just meet him ONE time!! lol
I absolutely love this song ❤️❤️😍! OMFG what a voice that even puts me to shame as I am a singer 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. This video is so hot especially when he lifts off his shirt ....Ok Scott MARRY ME IM IN LOVE.
Jeff and Michael Matijevic (Singer from Steelheart) both sang on songs used in the film. JSS is my fave though. It's like he sings from the bottom of his soul to the top of the arena. Along with Halford Jeff is my fave!
@iteletnap this song belongs to the movie, was made entirely for it, however, Jeff sings it cause he put the voice in the movie, and Matijevic because he and SteelHeart were involved as you might allready know in the movie. You can listen to this song with new lyrics in Sammy Hagar's album Not 4 Sale, due to the fact that, he compossed the song for the movie
this is bad ass i thought i was going to hear dios version from holy diver but this works for me too!!!only cause he sang for yngwie and is a rocking beast thats all!!
He's working on a solo project with an up & coming singer/songwriter named Sam Grow. Paulo Mendonca is also collaborating with them. You'll have to check out Jeff's MySpace to hear some of his new music. It's very different from what you might be used to from Jeff, but it's really good.
@kokonutssss While you're correct that you can create a harmonic from any guitar, the exaggerated Zakk Wylde type squeals this guy is getting is more commonly associated with a glued-in neck or neck-through construction guitar with humbucking pickups. You don't commonly get them to this extent from a stratocaster type guitar.
Freaks me out that the crowd was so mello because they sounded awesome and I would have been like head banging and freaking the #$%^ out !!!!! woot woot ...
Jeff Scott Soto was one of the vocalist that never got the "kudos" he deserved.
Rock on Jeff
Let me address the elephant in the Room………Because He’s Puerto Rican.
Ahh the voice of the movie Rock Star came out to play.. You rock Jeff..
Not him. The front man from steel heart does the singing for the film.
Those god damn pinch-harmonics... holy hell. So brutal.
Zakk Wylde would jealous
Dele Xovich ...Hell isn't holy. Unless your calling earth holy hell because it kinda is in a way. jk jk
It’s a zakk Wylde song so he wouldn’t be jealous.
@@lenny2657 Its actually a Sammy Hagar song but Zach definitely made it his
and he is playing with a stratoo hoooooouuuushit
JSS is a great singer and performer. One of the strongest (and most under-rated) voices rock has ever known. Great performance!
oh man this dude is 20 yrs too late! dayum maybe hard rock/metal will come back
Hard to believe this is not playback. Everything just sounds so good, from Jeffs vocals to the guitar solo.
Its a playback .. isnt this from a movie? Just wuty different footage
@Larry D damn thats insane
its a crime we dont have this in 4k
That CBS headstock Strat sounds HUGE.
Line 6 POD 2.0 into the return of a 100 watt Marshall head.
Jeff Scott Soto kicks ass...
jeff is amazing ... his voice fits so many music styles ....
I know right but he was definitely born to sing glam/heavy metal
been a Jeff fan since 1986
LOVE & SUPPORT FROM 🇮🇹 ITALY
I love this! It’s 80’s in the 00’s.. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Wow, sounds great, remember this guy was Yngwie Malmsteen's original Lead singer in the early 80's.
+Anon ymous Yep yngwie should have never let
him go
Best YJM albuns!
With his Muppet falsetto in full effect
His work with Talisman was the best
For years I had no idea that he's the one who sang the song from the movie rockstar this guy's voice is amazing
oh shit, i didnt knew that!
You need to be clear though - Soto ONLY does the parts where the "original singer" is singing (before he was fired) in the movie. Miljenko Matijevic does all the parts where Mark Wahlberg is singing. The "new singer" parts.
He and mili from steelheart... neither got the credit that was well deserved
Holly shit can this guy ever sing I absolutely loved the movie ROCK STAR . He is also extremely good looking .
Shit Scott Soto MARRY ME ...
That strat sounds so heavy ..
You mean the marshalls
@@dickcheney1949 You mean the Line 6 POD 2.0?
@@zakkwyldesdmf13 LMAO :D :D
Come on... I love Zakk Wylde, but this guitarrist also rocks! He did an incredible job with that strato!
Who is it?
Howie Simon, he’s a monster of a guitarist.
POD 2.0 into the return of a 100 watt Tube Marshall!
@@TheSaxonOverlordyep. Howie. From Buffalo.
Nick Z Marino and Jeff Scott Sotto, are the best underated singers i ever know, they deserve more audience
God almighty! Dude's pinch harmonics are SICK!
It's about time Jeff Scott Soto gets the Due Credit for being the Voice behind The Greatest Rock Movie ever made.
Yes, but... I mean... Milijenko is also a fucking beast and even less people know him... Some of the things in those steelheart albuns are superhuman
how can anyone not like this..unbelievable. I love the arrangement of the solo played during the break. very creative. Great tune, great performance
JSS is one of the best singers around. I love his work with Yngwie Malmsteen, specially "Mistreaded" from the Inspiration album.
Soto is the king.
"lighting up the underlying WIRL"
Fucks up the lyrics and still comes off a badass.
Jeff just kills on this tune.
The whole band did a great version of this tune here! Awesome!
This guy is the only singer i've heard that is heavy enough to sing Dio and do him justice. Such an amazing voice...
voltaspeeder17 If you get a chance, check out Twisted Witch on my page. We did a couple covers with Chris Gillen (Tokyo Blade/Overloaded) on vocals, with Steve Lane on guitar, Jason Quartuccio on bass, and myself on drums.

Jorn Lande...and Russel Allen
This is not the Dio Stand up and shout, you know that right?
This song is by the fictional Steel Dragon though (from the movie Rock Star) which Jeff did the voice-over for, the Dio song is quite different and much faster.

Amazing tone for a strat with single coils.
this performance is so much better than the movie! so much better!! great Jeff! Love you*
Jeff Scott Soto and Phil X do vintage Van Halen like no other!
I was at this gig it was on a Sunday afternoon 2/6/02 he came on stage at 5::40pm and went off about 7:15pm. It was also the Queen's sliver jubbile day and England played in the world cup in Japan. What a day i had one of the best days i've ever had. It was awesome.
Awesome, one of the best vocalists in rock. I was lucky to see him in Tasmania, not long after I had seen the movie, crowd was way better also
Jeff does rock...loved this song on the Rockstar soundtrack
Believe me, this guy IS Jeff Scott Soto!!!
Howie Simon does a great job of playing guitar on Yngwie songs, note for note, very clean.
Holy Hell.... this is a rock singing full throtle voice!
Awesome singer!!! Awesome Performance!!!
Don't worry...still a kick ass vid.TnX for uploading.
Best Vocals In Rocc I’ve Ever Heard 😳
Cool voice, cool name, cool hair ... cool puertorrican from Brooklyn.

Kim was a guy?

way to tear it up Howie....awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JSS is a true badass vocalist...
The guitar sound, waooo!!!
@AceOfHeart2012:I agree with you totally. A rich, full and unique voice. Rarely heard a very 'off' performance from him.

jeeezzz...you know youre gonna get a show when you go to his gig! those vocals were awesome XD
Who the hell is this guitarist? Nailing zakks tone and style perfectly! Those PH are sick as fuck!
To all of those that said the Line 6 POD 2.0 was garbage you obviously did not use it right! 😁
soto fucking rules. this is a great singer with an amazing voice
he is amazing
amazing voice !!
1972 Strat here. The big headstocks like this started in late 60's but were the staples of 70's Strats.
Sammy Hagar wrote this song. Does that make Jeff a "Redhead"...??? Love it!
What a huge n heavy guitar sound from a Strato!
Line 6 POD 2.0 into the return of a 100 watt Marshall!
Jeff Scott Soto is the MAN!!! Nobody knows that Sammy Hagar actually wrote this tune!
I knew!

Why does the guitar played is like Zakk’s?cause it’s Zakk’s song?
He's working on a solo project with an up & coming singer/songwriter named Sam Grow. Paulo Mendonca is also collaborating with them. You'll have to check out Jeff's MySpace to hear some of his new music. It's very different from what you might be used to from Jeff, but it's really good.
love this song :D
\m/
This is SMOKIN!
He's good, but he was never meant for journey. He is good in his own element
@kokonutssss While you're correct that you can create a harmonic from any guitar, the exaggerated Zakk Wylde type squeals this guy is getting is more commonly associated with a glued-in neck or neck-through construction guitar with humbucking pickups. You don't commonly get them to this extent from a stratocaster type guitar.
Freaks me out that the crowd was so mello because they sounded awesome and I would have been like head banging and freaking the #$%^ out !!!!! woot woot ...
