No one will ever match his scream!! Love this man, his voice, his music!! I wish i could thank him in person for the impact he had on my life!!! The 80's will always be the best years of my life!!
I wouldn't say no one will ever match his scream because there are the types of Ian Gillan, Kurt Kobain and many other singers that have a unique pleasant scream, but definitely Tom fits into that category of pleasant screams
Any band that got noticed in the mainstream in the 80s is immediately legendary. Cinderella was really underrated. They deserved so much more recognition.
Humble is an understatement.. Seen him perform at a small bar in front of a small crowd Dec 2017 and he still put 110% into the entire show.. I am a huge fan now..
You can't have a conversation about 80s Rock and not include Tom Keifer. Always thought he was the coolest non arrogant rock star! He is so down to Earth.. A regular guy who's one of us! Blown away about how articulate and intelligent he is!
I always thought he was a Steven Tyler knock off especially on Nobody's Fool but at least he didnt sound like every other band in the 80s like Poisuck or Motley Crue.
I think that that was an unfortunate side effect from his looks. I mean he did not sound a thing like Steven Tyler in my opinion anyway, and his voice was way better in my opinion. I could not stand Steven Tyler's high pitched singing. Tom could sing clean and then go into that screamy rasp that is just awesome. I think from my standpoint, as a teen in the 80's, I never realized what actually amazing musicians these guys are. As an adult I can appreciate it more, because I am not a teenager just crushing on the band and loving the music., it is way deeper now if that makes sense. That opening guitar he played for Nobody's Fool in Moscow really opened my eyes to what an amazing guitarist he is too. Man oh man, I wish I could go back and do it all again.@@StreetTruckinTitan
He is the real deal! We stayed outside the gate until 2:00 am after a Cinderella show in 2005. We saw Tom walk out,waved to him.He must have walked 50 yards out just to talk to us.He's really shy,nice dude.My brothers first concert was really special.Thanks Tom.
This is my 80's rock idol. The emotion that this man put in his music is amazing. I saw Faster Pussycat, L.A Guns, and The Tom Keifer band in Houston at Warehouse live on June 25, 2022. They put on one hell of a show. I will never forget getting to see my idol!
Tom, what goes around, comes around. You have given thousand's of people so much pleasure over the year's with your song's and dedication. That's why so many people still love you and your music today :)
Tom Keifer What a Class act!! Such a humble honest pure soul this dude has!! Gotta love him! So happy you are healthy and your voice is Back!! Your Fierce a Amazing Flawless Musician!! Love your style and Fabulous Music!! Keep Jammin my friend!! love and peace to you!! Ali Estero Florida 💕💕💕💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cool dude, he has so much respect for his fans and his inspirations. Some of the new artists should take note. Thanks for sharing your awesome music Tom !
Tom's work today is better than ever. So thankful he is still creating. I always just loved the way he blends his own special style of blues and rock. It's just raw emotion. So good!
Right on Tom Keifer for being such a good guy to put up with the interviewer. "Yep, yeah, right, yeah, yeah, heh, yup, right, right...." You get the picture.
I've seen these guys 9 times in Concert. Would have been 10 but they canceled a show in KC which broke my heart. This band was such a part of my life and Heartbreak Station clearly was the album that meant so much to me. Thank you Tom for the ride.
Amazing story overcoming the voice issue. Great example for people to never quit. Keep trying keep fighting. I'm incredibly happy for him and his humility is awesome as well
When you look at the long list of metal musicians and the ones who didn't have the public battles with alcohol and drugs, or outbursts of tempers, or cheating on their wives, and all the other perils of rock & roll, Tom is in the top of the list of guys who is a genuinely good guy and managed to not be one of the prima donna degenerates. He's a dude you would just love to sit down, chillout with, and listen to his music and his stories and you would feel like you were with a decent human being.
I LOVED Cinderella!! They were and still are one of my favorite bands ever! The 80's put out the best bands and music!! My own kids are even 80's music fans because that's what they were raised on! Love you Tom!!
I'm 20 years old. And I found out about Tom Keifer and Cinderella a month ago. And I realized that the music of Sindirella and Tom Keifer inspires me very much. This music causes me a lot of wonderful emotions. I am very grateful. Thanks
Tom is a brilliant song writer. I've always felt "heartbreak station" was a underrated masterpiece. That song had number 1 written all over it and didn't make the top 20.
1st love the music ans sorry for your problem and got over them. Sorry to here about Jeff Lebar. My condolences to this family and friends and the band members.
Saw Cinderella in Palo Alto CA in 1995, years after their glory days were over. They killed it. They put on a stadium-sized show in a tiny club. Love this guy.
Saw his tour in Nashville last summer 2022. Absolutely amazing! I have so much respect for him as a musician and person. He's always been one of those guys that's kept it real, he's never been one we hear about negatively in the press, and his music both Cinderella and Solo is just so amazing. I love how articulate and intelligent he appears. He's one of those guys that you would want to just sit down and hear stories from. Can't wait to see him again this year. If you haven't gotten to see him, do yourself a big favor and make the journey.
Although I liked Cinderella back i the day, I always saw them as an eighties band. After seeing some of his new stuff and listening to this interview, I have an gained immense amount of respect for this guy. Let hope he never stops!
Tom is one of the greatest vocalist, guitar player, song writer, and "Front Man" on the planet! He doesn't get older, he gets better! What a soulful rock singer!
Том Кифер интересный собеседник. Не знала о его проблеме со связками. Рада, что он преодолел эти трудные времена и находится в хорошей форме. Желаю ему крепкого здоровья и дальше радовать нас своим творчеством!👍👏💗💞💗🎼🎵🎶🎤🎧🎸🎹🎸🥁💿📀
Nice to hear from Tom. I definitely never forget the greatest live in Moscow with lots of super bands 80s and Cinderella was the best among those super duper legends. Love from Korea.
Christophεr a lot of people didn't realize how cool Tom really was. He was the epitome of a rock and roll star!! Down to earth and gets down hard when needed!!
And a fabulous pianist to boot! Tom is really amazing. A HUGE contributor to the best of **THE BEST** of rock n roll! He looks healthy & amazing for a rocker.
I was lucky enough to see Cinderella play live. Only then can you appreciate how good of a musician Tom Keifer is. I remember he would play like 3 different instruments on every song, I couldn't believe it. I mean the songs, the voice, the lyrics are all great but this guy is also an unbelievable musician. Tom, if your out there reading this one day... Thank You!
i liked them growing up in the 80s but now in my 40s i'm really listening to their entire albums. love this guy. i remember when i first saw him i didn't think it strange at all that a bunch of dudes were called "Cinderella" and were basically wearing dresses and had long locks. ahh the non-judgmental days of the 80s. i just knew i liked it and thought it was cool. so sad the "music" of today. was talking to my bud as a bunch of wives were playing some crappy 90s song from beyonce and i said i never listened to the radio after the early 90s...he said that song was from that era. i explained it wasn't a song but just a chick and a microphone. no band. no musicians. i hate that about all these decades after the 80s. i want my mtv dammit!
Talented guy. I saw Cinderella open for Bon Jovi in like 84 and they were good, but then saw them on the ling cold winter tour and was just blown away. That album, the long cold winter album was by far my favorite. Blues blues blues which is what I love. I also play guitar and I sat down and figured out all the songs on that album. It's just killer and Tom is a great musician!
We are so honored and grateful for y'all stand and truly blessed you still ❤️🩹🔥🏁👊✨😁 got it going on something fierce!!! Sending you nothing but blessings so super stoked over getting to see y'all again!!!! Thanking you all for helping us get by on lonely days!!!! Miss you tremendously wish I could be in Vegas!!!!!!👊💃🥊🔥🏁✌️🌏🥰💃🤸💃💯🙏🙏🙏 Finding your blessings always truly wish we could see you again in OKC Oklahoma
У Тома особенное звучание голоса , голос создан для рок музыки, высокие ноты хрипота , не у всех солистов рок групп такой голос, завораживает, класс том куфер самый лучший
Somebody save me I lost my job and they kicked me out of my tree! One the best bands to come out of the 80's I was 13 when they hit the scene it's 2021 I'm still lovin it.
No one will ever match his scream!! Love this man, his voice, his music!! I wish i could thank him in person for the impact he had on my life!!! The 80's will always be the best years of my life!!
Great scream but I honestly believe Roger Waters has a scream that would be absolutely difficult to replicate.
I wouldn't say no one will ever match his scream because there are the types of Ian Gillan, Kurt Kobain and many other singers that have a unique pleasant scream, but definitely Tom fits into that category of pleasant screams
Layne Staley surpasses him by a million miles
I met him in Las Vegas. He’s an awesome individual .
Any band that got noticed in the mainstream in the 80s is immediately legendary. Cinderella was really underrated. They deserved so much more recognition.
“Long Cold Winter” was one of the best albums from the 80s ‘hair band’ days...
Total badass album
Ya it was ,,,,,,depressing title heavy album no doubt
Humble is an understatement.. Seen him perform at a small bar in front of a small crowd Dec 2017 and he still put 110% into the entire show.. I am a huge fan now..
Cuzntime Good to hear.
Very cool story👍
He’s been one of my favorite singers ever since he was in Cinderella. Saw them in concert back in 1987 and they were awesome
@@brianbronski4356 Me too! Evansville, Indiana '87 Bon Jovi/Cinderella. My very first concert and it was awesome
@@fredfairchild8222 hi from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦. Saw Cinderella in 1991 in Hamilton. Fantastic show.

Tom keiifer one of the best frontmen of the 80's. cool guy
I love this guy. He reminds me of my ex.
@@anastasiapopov7250 I just checked it out as per your recommendation, and it was awesome!
@@StevenVerd I shall check it out now!
what a nice, humble and genuine guy...
I love Cinderella. Brings back the best memories of my teenage years. Keifer was-is one of the best scream singer of the hard rock era.
I always thought he was a Steven Tyler knock off especially on Nobody's Fool but at least he didnt sound like every other band in the 80s like Poisuck or Motley Crue.
*YESSS* !!!!!👌👏👍😆
Tom hang tough your music touches base almost all Cinderella's music is so iconic within the 80s great voice and great band
I think that that was an unfortunate side effect from his looks. I mean he did not sound a thing like Steven Tyler in my opinion anyway, and his voice was way better in my opinion. I could not stand Steven Tyler's high pitched singing. Tom could sing clean and then go into that screamy rasp that is just awesome.

Nothing but respect for Mr. Kiefer😎
What a cool dude. God bless you tom.
Yeah He Is Very Humble !
Уважение и восхищение!
It's been a very long time!
Not only does he have a better voice now than what made him famous but the guy is such a great guitar player. Hats off to Tom. Great musician.
He has a great speaking voice as well. He should have a radio show.
I agree! He's eloquent and anunciates really well.
@@floresnashvilledrummer enunciate *
Yes is what I say before too about his voice
He kind of sounds like Stephen Colbert when he speaks, only that Stephen sounds a bit more enthusiastic lol
He is the real deal! We stayed outside the gate until 2:00 am after a Cinderella show in 2005. We saw Tom walk out,waved to him.He must have walked 50 yards out just to talk to us.He's really shy,nice dude.My brothers first concert was really special.Thanks Tom.
That's a great memory.
It's hilarious to look at Tom compared to his peers: He's aged really well, still looks cool, and can still write fantastic records! TK is the man :)
This is my 80's rock idol. The emotion that this man put in his music is amazing. I saw Faster Pussycat, L.A Guns, and The Tom Keifer band in Houston at Warehouse live on June 25, 2022. They put on one hell of a show. I will never forget getting to see my idol!

Love your style and Fabulous Music!! Keep Jammin my friend!! love and peace to you!! Ali Estero Florida 💕💕💕💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
80's is the best generation.
Tom was the best scream singer of the 80s. Cinderella had so many great songs.
No doubt, I saw them w Winger and Bullet boys in the late 80's, great show!
THE BEST...... that's debatable
very very very fucking good, that's not debatable
I really like Cinderella. Saw them twice. First time was at the West Palm Beach Auditorium . Great show.
SCREAM SINGER ? LOLOLOLHAHA I DON'T THINK I HAVE EVER HEARD THAT ! LOLOL I THINK I CALLED IT SCREECHING LOLOLOLHAHA
@@martinkuliza I agree. So many great ones. I would have to go with Brian Johnson on that one.
He is incredible and an incredibly nice guy.
He seems like one of the coolest dudes in music. Honestly! Down to earth cool! I so dig that! That's why I'm still a fan of his and all he does
This guy is an amazing musician.
So much incredible music from this dude, thank you Tom!
Right
Right
So right
Cool dude, he has so much respect for his fans and his inspirations. Some of the new artists should take note. Thanks for sharing your awesome music Tom !
This guy is awesome I've been listening to this guy since I was a kid. All these years later it's cool to see him still doing it.
Right :9
right,, haha, right...yeah
Boay on the river
Tom your amazing! Much respect for overcoming the vocal cord paralysis and still sounding fucking awesome
Jeremy Watson agreed!
Tom's work today is better than ever. So thankful he is still creating. I always just loved the way he blends his own special style of blues and rock. It's just raw emotion. So good!
A REAL ROCK HERO

God bless you Tom.
Absolutely amazing voice and musician!!! Seems like a really cool guy too!!
Tom is amazing, with Cinderella and his band he's so talented!
He is a great person.
these old rockers just keep going because they all are such wonderful musicians.
Yes indeed they are! Feel free to read the comment I just posted here.
They actually possess a little thing called talent which is missing in the autotune generation
Amazing story overcoming the voice issue. Great example for people to never quit. Keep trying keep fighting. I'm incredibly happy for him and his humility is awesome as well

This was a great comment
Talented guy...underrated!
"You think you're getting somewhere, then you realize you're not" Well said Tom. And that seems to be the story of my life.
@Funk Enstein I second that brother.
Here..here..me too..
Doing any better these days, brother?

My favorite.
I agree! I used to have that album, as well as "Night Songs" and "Long Cold Winter". Cinderella was a great band!
"Heartbreak Station" was underrated, but "Still Climbing" was not only underrated, it was also completely forgotten
1st love the music ans sorry for your problem and got over them. Sorry to here about Jeff Lebar. My condolences to this family and friends and the band members.
wish I was alive in the 80s! Awesome music that I listen to and try matching the music on my guitar. someday I hope the 80s music style returns!!
Tom very humble and down to earth and one of the greatest singers of our time
What a cool guy! Great interview. So glad you got through your problems, Tom! Been a fan since Castle Donington '87. Best wishes, Mate... \m/ (:o)
Just got back from tom keifer concert so amazing and fun thanks for the great show
Tom Keifer has so much talent, he’s one of the GREATEST vocalists and guitarists, he’s just amazing, and he’s super humble. Such a great guy!
love his style and his music cinderella and his solo stuff...
A true class act, and the epitome of rock and roll. Overcomes anything that tries to stand in his way.
Saw Cinderella in Palo Alto CA in 1995, years after their glory days were over. They killed it. They put on a stadium-sized show in a tiny club. Love this guy.
Met him in November and he is such a sweet guy! Love him
He is a down to earth artist that is committed to his craft. The honesty shows in his songwriting and performance. So thankful for his music.
I really hope I can see u in your concert trough my life.
God bless you Tom.

Amazing and talented singer and songwriter
Think your great Tom you and I born same day and month and year!Many more!!Best wishes Tom!!!
Tom was my rocker crush back in the 80's. Seen his solo band last Sept. & now anxiously waiting to see them again!
I was so happy when I found the record Still Climbing . I thought there were only 3 records. What a treat that was .
to me personally, I think that was their peak. Such a great album, but sadly it came out a little to late for the music scene..
Tom, you're such a Sweetheart! Love you! 💜
And that’s friggin awesome to know that his wife is also in the band with him. They always have something cool to do together

I'm 14 and i hate the new music i love 80s and 70s rock it's talent and not fake shit they call music now
I saw Cinderella once back in 1988 with Bon Jovi Lita Ford and Scorpions 2 nights in a row in Munich. 2 of the best concerts I ever visited
One of the coolest singers ever! His voice and talent are a touch above. I am so happy his vocals were restored. God Bless him!
Tom, you're one of the most distinctive voices of my late teens! You've got a great voice and you write great songs!
Cinderella one of the best Bands ever. Tom is one of my fave Musicians of all time
