Young Opera Singer Reacts To Queensrÿche - I Will Remember (Unplugged)

[@mozzetti1]

Did you notice how Chris DeGarmo flawlessly took over the lead vocal while Geoff did the belting part towards the end? They were such a good combo. It often gets overlooked.

Roads to Madness I believe will display Geoff's true range and display of emotion through song. His power and range was ridiculous in this song. Thank you!

Geoff Tate truly has a phenomenally rare voice for metal! Queensryche was one of 6 metal bands who were in Moscow in '91 for 1.6 million fans with annual Monsters of Rock world tour! Look up historic videos to enjoy!

I agree but the piano version. The full band was not fully there, and the band knew it. That is why Chris sat down at the piano and made it that much better.

Geoff is actually a baritone, he just has an incredible range.

[@AaliyahCapili]

[@markdaube507]

I saw Queensryche LIVE at the Warfield Theater in San Francisco about 10 years ago. Before doing their newer hits in the second half of the concert, they did the entire 'OPERATION MINDCRIME' concept album in it's entirety, with all the acting and effects. It was probably one of the best performances I have ever witnessed. Check out the concept 'rock opera' for yourself some day. The sequel 'Mindcrime2' wasn't as good, but it did have an epic vocal battle between 'good guy' Geoff Tate and the 'villian' played by non other than Ronny James Dio.

[@sumonjamal1653]

Hold on... Queensryche played 'Operation: Mindcrime' in entirety way back in 2006... about 20 years ago,
Geoff Tate was fired in 2012 from Queensryche about 12 yrs ago... So, if u saw them 10 yrs ago, it was Geoff Tate solo... not Queensryche the band.

How you describe his voice....
Very nice 😁😁

[@AaliyahCapili]

Thanks so much🥰

[@purplekat5864]

YES! Geoff has a BEAUTIFUL voice, and so do YOU!
Geoff has complete control over his voice at all times. I've seen Queensryche live and met all of them many times, and each time was beyond memorable. BEST live shows I've ever seen!.
It's understandable to think he's a tenor, but he is actually a baritone! He has gorgeous warmth and resonance in his lower register. But he has really extended his upper range pretty darn high. Other vocal coaches have agreed after hearing a few songs that he is indeed a baritone. As he's gotten older, his speaking voice is quite low too. Geoff has had some classical training, and his aunt sang opera. No surprise there! To hear some of his lower side, check out "The Thin Line". Either the live performance or studio. And you've already reacted to their ballad, "Silent Lucidity", in which he is singing more in his lower range. If youd like to hear another insanely high song from their early days, listen to "Queen of the Reich" live in Tokyo 1984 (from the same show as "Take Hold of the Flame".).
Also in "The Killing Words" from the same MTV Unplugged , that "I Will Remember" was from. Geoff does a very intense, but controlled belt after the guitar solo. So good!
Someone else in the comments meantioned "Roads to Madness" from their first album. A longish song that really shows Geoff at his most expressive.
Its an intriguing song lyrically too. I think it's about a man who wants to know what happens after death so much that he kills himself, and then is having second thoughts as he awaits the "grand transition".
There are just SO many great songs by this original lineup of QR! The whole concept album, "Operation: Mindcrime" is also a must! Quite complicated, and sonically diverse. Also,
I think you'd really like "Another Rainy Night" and "Anybody Listening?" Even if you don't react to any of them, I hope you listen to more QR songs. You may not become obsessed like me, but you'll certainly appreciate Geoff and the talent every one of the band members has!
Thank you for you great comments and observations! I always love listening to such knowledgeable professionals like yourself.
Hope to hear more QR reactions from you!
P.S. Sorry, I always write too much!

[@AaliyahCapili]

Many thanks for sharing all of these, much appreciated🌺🌺🌺

This was an incredible preformance unplugged from queensryche.
The whole set was amazing. Geoff acually has a very low speaking voice
and you can hear it all the time when he sings. The low voice is there for a millisec
in the beginning of words throughout the song.

Nice, the original Queensryche was dope, they could excel, whether unplugged or in full electric power and glory mode. For me, one of the best 80s bands and they were neither thrash or a hair band, who became dominant rock genres later in the decade. Queensryche to us was a 70s band at heart with an updated sound for 80s fans but with a unique band identity, with a great vocalist and crack, double guitar lineup, they have plenty of tunes to listen to and/or watch. As others will mention, do Roads to Madness, one of their best epics and Geoff really gets to stretch out as always. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶

Good day you beautiful young woman and thank you for such an under reacted band. Guess you figured out I’m a huge fan of Queensryche.

Again thank you🤘🏻🔥💥🙏🏻💯

A truly great band that got steamrolled when grunge took over. Another song of theirs you might like is "Is There Anybody Listening?" off of "Empire", the same album that "Silent Lucidity" is off of. They were really peaking around the time of "Operation:Mindcrime" and "Empire".

What a fantastic choice, I LOVE this song SO much. It's one of my all time favourite 'ballads'. I love it even more than I love Silent Lucidity. Make sure you check out the original studio version, and that entire album, 'Rage For Order'. Fantastic, underrated album. If you want to check out more Queensryche, you MUST do 'Suite Sister Mary', if you haven't already. Epic track, one of Geoff's best vocals, and you get the added bonus of the SUPERB singing of Pamela Moore on that one...

Geoff Tate was one of my favorite singers from that era... This 1992 'MTV Unplugged' set was never released officially, but it captured the subtle side of Queensryche... and their 1994 album 'Promised Land' was a dark, mostly acoustic record.
It's a pity that the original Queensryche disintegrated and Geoff Tate, whose vocals were not the best in later years, was fired in 2012... but Queensryche has Todd LaTorre on vocals now and on tour this spring... Geoff Tate is also touring solo this spring as well.

Geoff Tate and Queensryche sort of bridged the gap in Seattle rock in the 80's between Heart and what would become grunge. Yes Quarterflash from Portland had a big hit and some others. That said, Geoff was so popular that every singer was trying to somehow emulate him. Those young singers in the Seattle area became known as the "Tater Tots" playing off his last name.

I believe he's actually a baritone, but I'm no expert. It's more difficult to extend your range down than up. There are many baritones w/ high ranges like Dimash (He's an exception, so I can't say for sure), Rob Halford, and Bruce Dickenson. Listen for the resonance/richness down lower and that will help. Does the lower or higher register sound more full/rich. (See Silent Lucidity). I've heard vocal coaches agree w/ that assessment for those artists as likely the case.
