This man still has the same heart and soul as he did from the beginning and to see him out there with the fans is just amazing. Great example of what every musician should be.
I was lucky enough to see Steelheart at The Rits in Roseville in 92. I was very eager to see if any human being could actually hit the notes off their album or it was studio magic. I think my jaw was just hung open most of the time. I'll never forget it.
Dude, I was there, too. I believed they opened for Lynch Mob. Epic show. Two dollars for parking! Dude I parked at Farmer Jack. Two dollars!!!! LOL I miss the Ritz.
@@trickdude25 That’s killer man. Yeah that was my first time at the Ritz. If I remember right I think I was surprised that there was really no seating. It was like a concert hall where everyone stood around on the floor. Maybe some round tables in the back and on the sides, but it was like a massive dance floor that people stood out to watch the show.
@@robinyumnam2646 They were called Red Alert before they were signed. I caught them in a club back in '89 in Connecticut soon after they formed. Some of the set were songs that would appear on the first Steelheart record - plus a few cover tunes. I know "We All Die Young" was released in '95, but their debut was released around 30 years ago.
@@cherylcarpenter8093 No, they formed in late '89 and gigged all over the New England area before they were signed. They were called Red Alert back in those days. They didn't become Steelheart until their first album was about to be released - not sure why the name change. Some of the songs they were doing in '89 ended up on the first Steelheart album.
The Elrods that’s true. They had to change their name when they got a contract as there was already a band named Red Alert (maybe the British punk band?). Mili wasn’t with them at the time. (He sent in a 4 track demo to the manager Stan Poses and got the job when Stan contacted him and confirmed Red Alert had just received an MCA contract.)
Dude is a great singer. It's a shame we never got to see them when this style of music was big. They came too late to the dance like so many other great but unknown bands
They were late but they kicked ass so much and had a huge following, I think they still would have been big today if it wasn't for the accident he had, it changed everything. It took him a long time to come back but he did it.
@Bo Riddley He is a great singer. His newest album "Through Worlds of Stardust" showcases his talent, even as an older singer. Yeah, I've also caught the occasional flat note in live performances (including this one). But Miljenko Matijevic is in his mid 50s. The fact that he can still pull it together in the studio is a testament to his professionalism. His (early 90s) voice from before the accident, reached greatness that many wish they could possess for even 30 minutes. Getting old and hitting a flat note once in a while at a live performance doesn't take away from that greatness. IMHO. As far as the guitar being "SO MUCH BETTER" in the movie... well... of course it was! That was Zakk Wylde (2000) playing. Not only was the guitar better in the movie version, the whole style was better. That includes versus all other versions, both live and the original on the Wait album. But remember, Matijevic was the singer on all versions... including the movie version. Miljenko Matijevic will always be one of my top 5 favorite front men, no matter what happens to his voice from this point forward.
@Andrea Cunningham lol...Really? 🤡🙄... If you look at the date in the description section it says FEB 2020 and no one was wearing the face diapers yet, and it was before the plandemic even started. Why would you even bring that up for anyways? You maskers are so annoying! You're probably one of the ones that wears one while you're alone in your car, and will probably wear one for the rest of your life! Like seriously... you people need to let this thing go!
love this track. such a great song. it was originally on their 2nd album Steelheart put out back in the day. It was on the album Wait which came out in 1996
I love Mili's voice but his intro is noticably flat pitch wise. This guy would have hit the big time if not for his accident with that falling lighting rig.
Cheryl Carpenter come on. Be honest to yourself. This is nothing compared to the studio version. I know it’s live and perfection is not a well-known concept but this was an okay performance of an epic song. Still sounded great for his age though.
Yeah, he’s flat several times.... and the song is at least a half step down from the original. This is the mistake of many singers from this era. They have trained their voices in standard tuning. Their mind unconsciously knows where to put their voice. Then they transpose those notes, and their brains need to search for where to go. It creates a struggle vocally. Singing is as much mental as it is physical. A trained singer knows unconsciously where their voice needs to go before they even hit a note. How tight to tune their vocal folds, where that note is going to be in their head. This is why Iron Maiden still play in standard. Why anthrax play in standard. Why Loudness still play in standard. Their singers sing better in the key they wrote the vocal . I know it might sound weird, but it’s far better to transpose in the key your voice is trained in, than to transpose in a key their voice needs to look for....
i dont think that this is lip sync. too many people use studio recordings to full the sound. but to me, this is more like echo/reverb/freeze kind of live effect on his live voice. so that he can sound more sustained and rest his voice for a few seconds more, while mimicking. It's a long show... But your sound guy have to know song parts and have to watch you carefully :D then that guy panicked and everything looked unrealistic. Mili is a great great singer.
It was delay that was used. Originally delay effect was invented for large outdoor concerts where you had one set of speakers on the stage and another set way out in the audience. They would delay the vocals on the stage and give the signal time to get to the speakers that were far away so the vocals would happen at the same time. Now it is mostly used as just an effect designed to thicken and sustain notes
Dude is amazing! One of the best voices of ROCK ever!!
This is amazing. I actually got the chills when he hits those high notes. My gosh, what a voice!
He is the best! Not just his outstanding performances but his showmanship and love of the fans 👍🤘
He sings so hard. Even at this age. Crazy how much he's kept things intact
This man still has the same heart and soul as he did from the beginning and to see him out there with the fans is just amazing. Great example of what every musician should be.
Agree!
I mean there are no words for how powerful and amazing this dudes voice is. Wow just wow

Thats so great bc I've a few bands in their hayday then saw them again alot of them r still great but a few r not so ur lucky

I saw'em at Hammerjacks. 8' from the stage, and I heard him, not the PA'
Yes, as a matter of fact I am very jealous of you right now :-) but in a good way ha ha
Wow, this guy never gets old....holy shit....
Ikr! And he can still sing beautifully and hit all them notes flawlessly!
well thats whats hes sayin.... younngggggggggg lol
Dude always brings it 10/10 What a legend
Thanks for sharing he still has amazing voice!
Saw them live back in the 80s. Can't believe he still has the pipes 30 years later. Simply amazing!!!
I thought they weren't a bad until the 90s
This song was released in 1995 and how the fck did u see them in the 80s

Fucking guy was absolutely AMAZING in the nineties and yeah..... he blows away any 90's band still on tour today vocally!!
@Bo Riddley Well if you knew anything about the movie, he did the singing on this song and a few others.
Dude. are you joking? Steelheart was big and i've seen them live at high times... Miljenko is a great muscisian at first and a great singer/performer
You never know what a man is about until it comes to money and fame.
Thank Kenny for writing this song. You’re so missed.💔😔
Dying over here, drowning in Milis beautiful voice and speechless at his swagger❤🥰🔥👌🥰💯🙌🤘
I can't believe how great he still is I saw him in 922 was so great I think some ppl should have face masks on
Yeah, considering his terrible accident. He fought back from that and is still the man!
I have the same reaction every time I see him. He's amazing! Hope I get to see them live one day. 🙏 🤞

Hey, the drummer is amazing. Tight and precise, bring it on.
Rock star, love it
love this track. such a great song. it was originally on their 2nd album Steelheart put out back in the day. It was on the album Wait which came out in 1996
Actually their 3rd release was Wait. Perhaps you forgot their 1992 Tangled In Reins release? Thanks for the comment though. Cheers!
@@thepatester you are correct
Thank you for loading!! It was a highlight for me on the cruise and was too busy singing!!! 🤘
just WOW!!!!!!!
Cool,cool
Just wow
What a great frontman
Toujours une belle voix
he still sounds great
good sound....and acoustics
so great!!!
Only the great kenny kanowski can play this so amazingly!!! RIP KENNY!!
Man he's still got the pipes
Everybody that wants to call out pitchy-ness has never had to sing with stage monitors after using in-ears normally.
I don't know about a steel heart, but Milo sure has a lot of heart
Steelheart is epic 80s!!
that audience part was very emotional... ( with older ladies and balder guys..)
"So you want the gig then Mate?"
hahaha !! " did you see the p.a. he brought with him ? " " did you hear the voice he brought with him ? "
I was at this show!!
very love him
Miljenko Matijevic is still chewing that gum.
I also can say this is the only time I ever seen the lead singer sing among his fans
I think Chester Bennington used to do it as well, either way it's well cool
saw em in 07 he still has the pipes
Super, parabéns amei.
Just wow is the word
So you the the gig and Jennifer Aniston mate lol. The man still sounds great! Wish my body was in half the shape as this man's voice lol!
Wow nice bro
TRES Cool
Love you Malicki
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Song starts at 0:44
Was the band in Rock Star, Steel Dragon?
Damn
HelL F@#KinG YeaH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Saw them open for lunch mob in Columbus ohio great fuckin show great singer.
I love Mili's voice but his intro is noticably flat pitch wise.
This guy would have hit the big time if not for his accident with that falling lighting rig.
This guy out of key or pitchy. Not likely. The drummer is attempting to sing harmony. He is not hitting his note.
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Where can I see Steel heart are you still touring
Yes! And he just released a new song called Trust in Love. Just Google their tour schedule!
Pitchy, but awesome.
What were you listening too.
Cheryl Carpenter come on. Be honest to yourself. This is nothing compared to the studio version. I know it’s live and perfection is not a well-known concept but this was an okay performance of an epic song. Still sounded great for his age though.
He probably couldn't hear himself. But you are right, he is a bit pitchy.
I didn't know this was an American Idol audition. Why dont you just ask Simon Cowell since we are throwing out random uneducated judgments?

Reunion steel Dragon
we know how old he is.. his vocal still works out but is not as much as young.. so sad
What was that sustained note in the audience? Vocal effect?
Lip sync??
Looked like he lowered the Mic too soon....the note kept driving when he parked!
it's a delay effect. The sound guy fucked it up a bit. It happens sometimes. It's not lip sync

Great song.......... even nice and loud.........if it is to loud ,,,,, your to old....
Got some tuning issues 😀
This must of been before the pandemic.
Early February 2020
It was, we got off the ship Feb 13th
He kept singing at 4:03 long after he stopped.
due to effects more than likely used on his vocals for live performance such as delay etc
@@FutureHonest I wondered if that was it. He still has the pipes.
The sound guy added delay which sustained the note
Lastima cambio hasta los musicos !!! Y se corto el pelo sera por la novia lo cambio es otro !!!
Rhythm section was terrible here.
these guys rock but the intro vocals are a tad bit flat. NOBODY is perfect. the song still rocks!
Something brewing with the band????? Hmmmmm........
I hate when my buttons break halfway up my shirt also
Especially starting from the bottom of the shirt? Haha ;)
You mean that wasn’t Walberg. Lol
HE WAS FLAT
Great sounds ,, drummer ,,, when your tossing sticks you know it's not point first it's rolled , huge liability ,,
The movie version with Mark Wahlberg are far better
Vocalist in dire need of a better on-stage monitoring system.
Bassist is sloppy!
For sure
Sloppy indeed.
Jealous much?
@@Waynemann1 not one bit!
Where I come from, we call dudes like this an overcooked ham. Its a good song but, its not that great.
Not quite sure what that has to do with it. But, ok.
And where I come from....you have NO hit singles or gold albums or still tour after 30 years.
People who come to any performance videos of any artist just to hate are sad pathetic waste of 25 cents their dads should have spent on a condom.
He’s way off key here in many parts ...
So incredibly off key. Hang it up already. When your hearing is shot it's time to call it quits. It was great while it lasted.
