You should check out Lizzy's performance of, "Familiar Taste of Poison," live on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, I believe it was. It's truly amazing in my opinion. Especially when you consider that it is live.
I love the reaction and breakdown for this!!! well done and thank you
Watch "Halestorm - Familiar Taste Of Poison - Jimmy Fallon (21-07-2010)" on UA-cam

Sounds like Elizabeth likes a bad boy :)

Lzzy Hale is amazing. If you feel like digging, she documents the steps she took to maintain her voice; no alcohol, more sleep, one coffee then only water, etc. She has been very deliberate in her efforts to keep her voice; she said something along the lines of 'some people don't have to make these changes, I do.'
Where did she document this?
@Vicky Knight I would love to know WHERE this is documented?
Yes! I gained so much respect for her when I read that article about her. She also exercises daily to keep up her cardiovascular abilities, does not eat dairy or sugar. She is so dedicated.
I think only cocaine and bourbon can give this voice :)))
@@celesteroberts2890 No dairy? I'm out.
Fun Fact: Floor Jansen was asked in an interview who her favorite female metal singer was and she said Lzzy Hale from Halestorm.
I was gonna say this! That's like the highest compliment in the world
I love Floor. And she is spot on. I mean when it comes to rock music in total it's hard to find a lead that actually can really sing. Like real singers. I think she gave me hope in rock music.
I honestly did a search a moment ago to see if there was some sort of colab between Lzzy and Floor.. Those two have the most amazing voices... Floor has so many different sounds and voices too, that I am sure they could find a way to stack their sounds so well.
Really? I didn't know that, is really awesome
Awsome..I now know 2 of my 4 favourite female singers have respect for each other..rock on
Just saw Halestorm last month and this woman was as strong as steel the entire show. Never cheated a note. Probably the very best vocalist' on the Rock music scene. Male or female. She takes the crown. And above all that, her little brother is one of the best drummers/ showman around. Finally, they are kind and very sweet folks.
I'm convinced half their tour budget is replacing mics when they spontaneously burst into flames when she screams.
It 100% is 😂 I was at a concert of theirs a few days ago and by the second song they had to replace the mic
She CAN do this live. Her live vocals are nuts.
There's a full live concert on UA-cam where she shows off her awesome musicianship. ua-cam.com/video/u7zuAlf5FBo/v-deo.html
She is even better live
@@Imurai I was there. Couple of mates had never heard of Halestorm, other than what I told them. They're converts now.
@@DieyoungDiefast I envy you so much right now 😄
The best love performance I've ever seen.
My Halestorm vote is "I am the Fire". She really shows off her singing and her power in that one IMO.
That was going to be my recommendation as well!
Especially the live version!!!
Agreed. Should have been that one live. Best version I've seen was a later one when she had short hair.
this! watch the live version!
Yesss
Personal fun fact from me: This music video was filmed in my home town of Flint and "The Machine Shop", that you see in the beginning, is our local rock spot for up coming bands. I saw her live here and she truly touched my soul. Her band members were outside playing cornhole with us while waiting to get inside before the show. She came out and talked with us for a bit also. She was so moved by our crowd that she actually cried on stage. She is such a sweet person.
Hell yeah! Miss the Machine Shop
That’s an amazing story
I met her at the house of blues in Cleveland when she opened up for papa roach . A big snow storm was coming so everyone hurried up to leave and we went around where the tour busses were and they came walking out with papa roach. They all invited us to some bar and we hung out with both bands for almost 3 hours . Cool people all of them and down to earth
Was gonna say this looked familiar. I miss them coming to town 😢
She can express anger, love, longing, even sarcasm while singing a single song. Would love to hear you break down Taste of Poison.
She does a song with Lindsey Stirling called “Shatter Me”. So good!
I was literally about to suggest it when I spotted your comment.
I'll just casually drop this link here ua-cam.com/video/49tpIMDy9BE/v-deo.html 😊
I was going to suggest that too.
@@nickbrown6754 this live version is awesome ua-cam.com/video/VYSs1w22a_w/v-deo.html
So much this!!!!
I agree! The combination of Lizzy Hale and Lindsey Sterling is fantastic!
Familiar Taste of Poison really shows off her singing ability
And rock show.
Familiar taste of poison is seriously underrated.
Familiar Taste of Poison is absolutely amazing and mesmerizing! Would love to see a reaction to that song.
I discovered Halestorm a few years back when they supported Shinedown here in England, and was a fan pretty quickly, but Familiar Taste of Poison solidified it for me. It was so atmospheric and epic hearing it
Has she discovered "In This Moment" yet? Talk about great female vocals, Maria Brink of their group is incredible.
In this moment would be great!
Big Bad Wolf.
OMG I would LOOOOVE to see this! I've been a huge fan of theirs since they first put out a 4 song demo before Beautiful Tragedy was released. I was hooked within the first 30 seconds and have been ever since. And GD did I love them live. It's now my mission to put this recommendation in every new reaction from Elisabeth!!
Maria brink 🤤
I would absolutely love to hear her react to Maria
Her facial expressions are more entertaining than the music video.
i would recommend "Love Bites (so do I)", it's even more insane than "I miss the misery"
Agreed. The bridge of the song is absolutely epic.
The Acoustic version from the live room is just brain-melting. Anyone who doubts her ability to perform hasn't heard it yet.
I was gonna say this.
Great tune !!!
Definitely
Lzzy Hale said on Twitter:
"Actually, the song “I miss The Misery” is a metaphor for the relationship we all have with misery. We as humans are addicted to torturing ourselves via drugs and alcohol, internet negativity. We all struggle with wanting to go back relationships we know are bad for us….."
I remember her also mentioning drawing inspiration for the lyrics from her parents talking about their divorce iirc
@@Larcona_ Exactly what I saw in an interview!
@@Axe_Slinger Mine was in a twitter conversation in which someone accused her of glorifying abusive relationships.
never heard of these guys... glad im chewing through these videos.
@@bigh1708 I could talk about them and their music for hours, they've been my favorite band for around a decade. If you need any song suggestions I'm happy to oblige.
Lzzy has such an aggressive voice, but powerful and electric and not hostile. It's beautiful. Her sound is raw and it makes for such amazing connection to the lyrics. I find her poignant and amazing
Back when Lzzy Hale still drank, I was at a music festival in the VIP section & ended up doing a shot with Lzzy Hale & Ivan Moody from Five Finger Death Punch. Both fantastic, down to earth people.
Love Halestorm. One of the few bands I've seen that sounds nearly spot on live as they do on the album.
I think she sounds even better live, I've taken my daughters to 3 of her concerts and live is just unreal, the power in her voice is unbelievable. I can thank Halestorm for making my girls rock/metal fans!
seems to be a thing of the past. back in the day southern rock bands were the same way.unless of course, they got into one of their 30 min jams. witch was still great
I stack them in with the likes of RJD, Iron Maiden and Priest when it comes to live/studio sound. Absolutely love them.
I've made this same comment to many others.
You have got to do halestorm "taste of poison". She did it on "Jimmy Kimmel" really shows a different side to her voice...
Ooooh man...if you enjoyed Lzzy, you GOTTA listen to her collaboration with The Hu singing Song of Women. What a BEAUTIFUL mix of cultures, talents, and skills.
Early frontrunner for Crossover/Collaboration Band of the Century. Really dig these guys!
The Hu is awesome... full stop.
I like The Hu, but not that song you have to listen Yuve Yuve Yu, i think is the best
I second this statement.
I love that collab! Such a great song. ^^
"Looks like it's about to end and I'm not okay with that yet." - Legit me every time I hear Lzzy Hale sing anything. I am SO glad you've discovered her. I really can't wait to see you react more to her. I got to meet her at a show twice in one night and she was just the most wonderful human. The band would talk with their fans all night if their manager allowed it :D
I have seen Halestorm live, and Lizzy's voice is every bit as good live as in the studio. I can't believe anyone can sing with the range and power she has and not blow out their vocal cords. She is a freak of nature! Her and the band are incredible.
Lzzy Hale was born in the wrong decade.
If this song had been released in 1987 or 88, it would've been huge!
As far as I'm concerned, Lzzy is the rightful heir to Lita Ford and Joan Jett's throne atop Rock/Hard Rock.
ive said for YEARS that she is our (30 somethings) generation's joan jett... high five for sharing the comparison
Very much agreed
Yes. Halestorm takes me back to the mid-80s, and *I love it*!
Lita and Joan? More like Ann Wilson...she is 70 and still sing like a godess!
@@ImDembe Whoa there! Slow down! Ann Wilson is in a league all her own. Let's not get crazy here!
First time I ever saw them live, she strode out onto the stage and grabbed 50,000 or so of us by our souls. She was a ROCK STAR, and we had no choice but to acknowledge it. Very few performers have her stage presence.
I’ll say I’m sure that happened, I’m in New Zealand. She partnered with an amazing female lead metal band here in NZ for some shows. I was a massive fan before this was announced. But when she played here. She was burnt the fuck out. Like she put her all. But her voice was fried. This was in the early days when I bet they were touring 365 24/7 it was sad to see though.
Saw them live at Copenhell 2019, it was one long party. Lzzy just took control of the crowd, great fun.
Have you heard Lzzy Hale's lyrics she wrote to sing with The HU's " Song of Woman"?
That one is sooo good
Ya gotta check out their song "FREAK LIKE ME". she hits an impossible note and holds it for awhile. Thanks for helping us learn more about how music is actually made! 🤟
Every time she hits that note I swear it's a guitar
Try Shatter Me by Lyndsey Sterling, Lzzy Hale is the vocalist on it.
Sirius XM version only, the acoustic one.
@@romanzbawiciel5221 it's ok but the official video is so much better
I agree. I have been to a couple of Lindsay performances. Lizzie was on tape🙁. Not touring for one song.
2 years or so ago...I got to see Evanescence with orchestra(for the 2nd time!) and Lindsey Sterling touring together ... and she had Amy Lee sing Shatter me , was amazing
* Lindsey Stirling
theres so much great Lzzy Hale content out there. She collaborates with SO many artists. I suggest looking up her duet of Break In with Amy Lee, Song of Women with The Hu, and Shatter Me with Lindsey Stirling in particular
Definitely Shatter Me. That is a great one.
Song of Women was best track of 2020.
Definitely second checking out Lizzy hale with the Hu song of women
@@crhu319 I like the song, but the mix has her vocals quiet compared to The Hu. Sometimes it's hard to hear her.
She did a duet with Eric Church for the CMAs a few years ago and she went full beast on that, serious punch!
Was lucky enough to see them live a few years ago and she was fantastic too
Favorite songs from her are "I am the Fire"and "I like it heavy" the ending of the second one is absolutely beautiful
I Like It Heavy is probably my favorite song by Halestorm
I love the way you get all giddy and geek out at really good vocalists. Everyone should do something they love as much as you love singers/singing!
You should check out Halestorm with Amy Lee from Evanescence performing “Break In”, their voices are amazing together
This. They're sooooooo good together.
Yesss!!!
Omg yeeeeeesssss I love their song together Break in actually had my shed some tears cause it was so beautiful and passionate in my opinion
I think I was the only person that didn't like this...
I prefer the studio version they did, over the one they did during social distancing.
I would recommend that one specifically.
Their version of Bad Romance is great. Also, Lzzy does a great duet with David Draiman of the song ‘Close my eyes forever’.
It’s a cover of an Ozzie Osbourne and lita Ford song.
Their version of hearts all I wanna do is make love to you is absolutely amazing and dare I say better than the original 😳🙊
Thanks for the info I'm excited to check this out.
I had no idea she collaborated with Draimen! Both their bands are in my top 5
Saw her live in a festival and I remember feeling like there was some sort of Goddess on the stage. It's a supernatural force. Unbelievable.
Her vocals are amazing. She is going 100% in this song. I love the smooth and the gritty like the love and the hate of the lyrics. She must have some incredible control not to blow out her voice. You can hear and see the anger in the video. Great song!
"It looks like this song is about to end and I'm not ok with that". - That's how I feel in the final moments of most Halestorm songs.
I related to that sentence all too well.
Same
That feeling is amplified x100 at their shows 😭
Her vocals shine so well in "Familiar Taste of Poison" and "Innocence". There's this HUGE range for her.
Two insanely great songs
Wanna showcase purely the vocals? I am the fire is insane
I came to the comments to suggest "Familiar Taste of Poison", really amazing song.
Specifically when she sings Familiar Taste of Poison, LIVE. She executes these insane vocalics, just her voice with sustained notes. Freakin' GOOSEBUMPS, people!! When I hear her this song in particular, I feel this uncontrollable pull from the core of my soul out and hear my voice ringing out with her no matter where I am.
'Rock show' , 'You call me a bitch like it's a bad thing ' too
If you liked this then you're gonna love their song: Apocalyptic
Lzzy hale She has so many sides to see
Soft side: dear daughter
Another good rock style: I am the fire
Now that you’ve been introduced to Lizzy Hale you need to analyze “Break In” a duet with Lizzy Hale and Amy Lee from Evanescence .
Nice to see you review halestorm. The best song for you to review is "familiar taste of poison", the live version on the jimmy fallon show.
I saw that when it came out and to me that was a cringy performance with vocals sounding nervous, forced and not in tune. But hey, that's just MY opinion! =)
Yes, yes, yes!! 😄👍🏻
I second this, but the music video version.
@@TheMack I'll agree that it sounded like she was trying a bit too hard, I love Lzzy and she sounds best relaxed just doing what she does.
Familiar taste of poison is definitely the numer 1 song that I would want reviewed on this channel. So much emotion and so tastefully done.
Lzzy is honestly one of the best vocalists around these days, and her guitar definitely places her with the gods. What's even better is her mainstream appeal. She's guested with acts across the spectrum, from Lindsey Stirling to Eric Church to MGK to In This Moment. She does ballads and hard-driving rock and everything in between. This is a once-in-a-generation talent and a true successor to Lita Ford and Joan Jett.
Izzy Hale... One woman i could die happy having her mad at me because that's when she's at her best :D
I highly recommend “Freak Like Me” to really show off the range of her voice with the grit. She hits one note and holds it for forever and then somehow bend the note up instead of fading down like you naturally would. Insane vocal talent
One my fav all time
Fry control
My husband had that phrase FREAK LIKE ME tattooed on his arm along with LZZYs autograph and we both have the halestorm logo, love em xx he has met them with our daughter and myself omg lzzy is tiny! The band is amazing am seeing them in 2022 cannot wait and hope they do a meet and greet as its at a smaller more personal venue, the barralands in Glasgow xx
Girl crush, it's killer...from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 🤠
Of you're not okay with it ending, there's only one solution, more Halestorm songs in the future ;)
“The song looks like it’s almost over, and I’m not ok with that” Me every time I listen to Halestorm 😍
Saw Halestorm for the third time last Friday and they just keep getting better. Just for fun I took a noise meter and I miss the misery was in the mid 90 dB (A) range but that ‘hurt’ Elizabeth mentioned took the peak level up to 106.6dD (A)! Lzzy has one powerful voice.
By the way they supported Alter Bridge and Myles is also an amazing singer.
Lzzy and Amy Lee have a beautiful duet called “Break In” that I think you’ll really enjoy - check it out! Their voices compliment each other so well.
"Wow, It, it looks like it's about to end here, and I'm not, I'm not OK with that yet ..." Gold, Elizabeth, Gold. I've only just discovered Lizzy's vocals and I'm loving her more and more every time I hear her. This is probably my favourite song of hers so far. Thanks again for analysing this song.
Halestorm has a song called Freak Like Me and in it Lzzy hits this crazy high and long note. It sounds so crazy that you think it was extended in production, but no, because she hit it at her live concerts too. Absolutely insane fierce voice
The live versions of this are pretty friggin awesome. Lzzy gets that whistle scream in and you can damn near feel it in your bones. She's an amazing singer.
Maybe consider 'Break In' feat Amy Lee?
Pretty please.
Or Lindsey Stirling with Amy's 'Wasted On You' String Session.
She’s just as powerful in live shows. It’s insane.
Pre-Covid, i think they used to run about 250-300 shows per year. I question why her voice hasn't popped yet either. Seen them live twice....she belts it out just as good if not better live. Love it!! One of the best female rock vocalist to come out in a long time.
If you ever have the chance to see Halestorm live, DO IT. Lzzy is even better in person. She kills it.
Actually, a great one to watch is Lzzy and Eric Church live at the 2014 CMA awards. Prime example of how a vocalist can completely change the tone of a song.
ua-cam.com/video/HiIJprCQavc/v-deo.html
Yes! That's the song that finally got me into Halestorm. My father was watching the CMTs and I went "hey wait, who's that?!"
And cause Nicole Kidman to ask "who the f*ck is that?" on live tv. (That part has been edited out from the video since the first time I saw it but Lzzy has mentioned it as well.)
Also, I saw them do this song live in Boise, while obviously sick, and she still blew Church out of the water.
I was about to post the same suggestion! :D
@@_Evil-yx9jc That's the video I would choose!
Halestorm performing “Familiar Taste of Poison” at the WZZO Studios. This is such an amazing live performance, highly recommend!
I love the version they did on Jimmy Fallon.
When the world suffocates me with negativity it’s such a relief to watch Elizabeth’s videos. She’s so wholesome it’s like an antidote to the everyday bs.
Ok so I found this looking at Halestorm vids... As a 58 year old man people find it odd that Lzzy is my favorite singer but that voice is just so unforgettable. And your delivery of your take is simply awesome. I've neve= seen one of your vids before But the more I listened to you the more I liked you! Your smile m and enthusiasm is so natural, you gave me takes on her singing that I can't put into words but you did. Simply love discovering different things - like you, thanks.
Their live cover of 'Girl Crush' shows how Lzzy gets the gritty emotion out in a slower softer song. I love it.
familiar taste of poison is slow and its theirs
YES! Can't wait for this reaction.
Recommendation: 25 (unplugged) by The Pretty Reckless
Cindy Lou Who!!!
I would like to see this one reviewed
@@sopwithsnoopy8779 The very same.
I love Pretty Reckless. I think her voice is getting the grit and control she always wanted more recently. I would LOVE to see @CharismaticVoice react to "We Will Rock You" with Lzzy Hale, Taylor Momsen and Marina Brink. Kick. Ass.
I would love to hear more Halestorm.
lzzy hale has the most INCREDIBLE voice oh my god !!!! seeing her live last week at wembly i have never heard a vocie with so much power and presence. wow wow wow! she really is the best female rock singer i swear down
You should check out her singing break in with Amy lee. The way their voices sound together is out of this world!
This is Lzzy on level 8 on a scale 1 to 10 if you want to hear Lzzy on 11
You need to see her Live in front of
An audience.
She is amazing live. RJ too.
The most level 10 she gets on record is Innocence and maybe Love Bites. Familiar Taste of Poison gets slept on A LOT but it's level 10 in a different way.
Please listen to In This Moment and The Pretty Reckless.
Her song “Do Not Disturb” is a true story. She talked about it on a radio show
Lzzy is a force of nature, it's like hearing a lioness roar straight to your face.
SHE. IS. FIERCE.
Elisabeth, if you liked her on the studio recording, check out Halestorm's live performances please, there she givers her very best.
And thanks for reacting to my top female crush XD
Listen to Lacey Sturm sing I'm so Sick when she was with Flyleaf. She has an amazing range and scream!
Lacey Sturm kills it!
I saw Lacey live a few years ago on her "Life Screams" tour. She is amazing!
Flyleaf missed out on a great singer. Lacey was the meat of the band and well now it's what's her name. Lacey could grab your attention and make you feels chills. "I'm So Sick" is what got me. I was wow.
familiar taste of poison and i am the fire are her two "strongest" vocals as songs to check in the future. her control in them is just insane.
I saw Halestorm live at Summerfest in Milwaukee years ago before they became a well known band. I think they only had one single out at that time. They were opening for the headliner at that stage. When she got on the piano and played "Break In", they literally had the entire crowd speachless. That was when i knew they were going to be big. The entire concert that night was amazing. Great show and great vocals for a live performance.
Her cover of 'all I wanna do' from heart is amazing
Halestorm - "I Am The Fire"
idk why but this womans reaction to music with the facial expressions and smiling makes me feel some type of way
Lizzy hale is from my hometown. What many people don’t know is she took voice lessons from the lead singer of Kix. Maybe guitar lessons too. She’s very talented.
You should check out that video that was linked at the end of her singing Break In with Amy Lee. Too many people have been sleeping on that team up and it’s so good
I personally prefer just Lzzy
I highly recommend “Familiar Taste of Poison” by Halestorm! The song is phenomenal and gives me chills every time I listen to it!
Being older (59), I love it when singers of today, have learned from those in the past. Pat Benatar when she started out and before she was famous, had the pure voice. She got the part in a musical on Broadway? and the late Harry Chapin was involved in it. He kept telling her she had to rough it up, put some grit in her voice, cause she was playing Zephyr, the bad girl in the musical. Which really helped her later in Rock. She had that ability to stay pure and soft as velvet, then plunge her voice into some roughness to bring a song to life. If you could find a live version of "Hell Is For Children" you'll hear what I mean. Lzzy Hale has that ability as well.
I have seen them live twice and they kill it every step of the way. Have you done I am the Fire? I think that is probably my favorite of theirs, the lyrics hit with me and the power she packs is absolutely amazing!
Would love to see you react to The Pretty Reckless! I'd recommend "25 (unplugged)" as the song has a lot of emotion but the editing seems fairly minimal. I'd definitely put Taylor Momsen right up there with lzzy Hale.
Should check out the band Spiritbox, specifically “Blessed Be”. It takes a very dark turn towards the end
I was a music student in college, at the end of ever term (semester) we would put on a gig. My band chose to cover this as the final song of our set, and damn was it the most fun but vocally challenging thing I’ve ever done. Hands down best performance we ever did
Saw Halestorm in concert once. This woman's mic broke during that one note in "freak like me" and you could still hear her over everything else going on. Blew my damn mind.
Another Halestorm rec for you: Heart of Novocaine. It's an acoustic track and there's a live studio session of the band performing it a little over a year ago. No post production, just instruments and vocals, and Lzzy brings the thunder. From the low notes to the high belts, clean singing at the start to that hard Lzzy grit. And lots of close ups to see what her mouth and neck are doing. Great track for really analyzing her vocal work in action. And just a great track in general
OH BOY! I've been waiting for something like this for a while!
I hope after this (not right after, but like the next one) you check out Break In ft. Amy Lee.
Or check out The Pretty Reckless. Taylor's voice is quite interesting. Like sick Phoebe.
Yeah Momsen has an incredible voice. She even has some acoustic stuff up that might be more up Elizabeths nerd-alley.
Absolutely agree with The Pretty Reckless suggestion, had the sane thought while viewing the reaction.
Yes! The Pretty Reckless please! 25 would be a great song to check out
'Make Me Wanna Die' - a Shakespearean tragedy.
Shares a similar theme of the dangers self-betrayal can introduce. That one has been on my personal playlist for a decade.
Amazing talent. Would be a great follow up to this one.
@@chrisvaughn4399 I was thinking Death by Rock n' Roll acoustic.
Hearing you analyze the technique of the singing and production is so fascinating
Their covers of Slave to the Grind and Bad Romance really show of her vocals IMO. The former particularly the scream on the intro live is utterly superb!
I've had the absolute pleasure of seeing Halestorm play 5 times now. I believe the first show I went to was 2012. And holy moly... They slay it every. single. time. They sound almost exactly the same as on their albums... her "belts", "screams", "high notes" (not sure of the correct term) that she sings live are so much better live and in person. Maybe it's because I admire her so much and have since the day I found out about Halestorm. It just hits different live and in such a beautiful and powerful way. Not to mention Lzzy, Arejay, Joe, and Josh are super duper kind and humble and such sweet humans. I have a signed poster from them hanging up in my room. It's my most cherished possession 😂🖤🤘
Oh man they have so many good songs! I Am The Fire, Here's To Us, Mz Hyde, Uncomfortable, and so many more.
Edit: Now that I watched the video I see you've heard Here's To Us. You really need to listen to I Am The Fire. Same awesome lyrics and same powerhouse vocals plus an awesome video.
Also highly recommend her duet with Lindsey Sterling called Shatter Me. Her vocals on that song give me chills every single time. Also an amazing video!
I feel like a lot of people here are sleeping on killing Ourselves to Live
The only coach on YT that will look at any genre and show her genuine emotion and thoughts. I LOVE HER!
I've seen Halestorm live three times and no one keeps the energy high like them. From the first note to the last, it's just insane.
I think you would enjoy Halestorm feat. Amy Lee - Break In
YES! The version where they're singing live in the studio is amazing!
OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! YES!!!!!!!!!!
For a powerful and fun live performance by Lzzy, I recommend checking out Eric Church ft Lzzy Hale, "That's Damn Rock and Roll". She blows the roof off the place.
I love that one. Obviously they had rehearsed together, but I'm pretty sure that she held back during that as she surprises him at the end with what she can do.
I love that performance. Highly recommend for those who havent seen it yet
I just found another version from the 2014 CMA fest. The overall audio quality, especially Eric's voice, are a bit louder. But I still prefer the 2014 CMT Awards version. Lzzy rocks harder in that one, and Eric shows more passion in his stage presence.
Rule number one: never have a guest vocalist who is a much better vocalist than you. Eric Church missed that memo.
@@frankie467 not necessarily. Depends on the style and the role within the song. I think they blended well together and represented a wider range of "rock" sounds.
I LOVE that you rewind the videos so often! I then get a chance to see what you’re describing- it helps so much! Love your vids!
Familiar Taste Of Poison.....
You can really see every spectrum of her vocals with that song, to think it’s from their first album so long ago... Lzzy is a powerful vocalist in the rock world, she has so much raw grit
The message behind this song is just relatable based on my past experience. Thanks for pointing that out, Liz :)
I don't want to think about my age, but that song was bringing back to my head banging days. The big hair metal and hard rock bands of the 80'S. Thank you for reacting to this song. Brought back good memories!!!! I need to buy more music (Halestorm).
if you like that, check out the halestorm covers album, she sings skid row, dio, cinderella, heart and more, and even does duets with sabatian bach of skid row, and tom keifer(sp) from cinderella and a beautiful duet cover of close my eyes forever with lita ford herself, i mean there's no doubt she was highly inspired by 80's rock/metal, and i couldn't love her more for it lol
@@rocknrollnwalker Thanks for the heads up. I will look for the album. It's funny I still have all the cd's of Skid row, Dio, Ratt, ect.
@@rickjames2043 i do too lol some 200+ cassettes and nearly 200 cds of old school rock/metal, my momma started me out right in the 70's with black sabbath and the eagles and led zepplin, all that good shit lol
@@rocknrollnwalker Amen! Me too!! I have some 45 singles also.
@@rickjames2043 unfortunately any and all actual albums i've had are long gone, but so are any record players that i've ever had lol so i guess it doesn't matter. these crystal clear cd recordings are nice but there's just something classic and nostalgic about that record scratch sound with music
I saw Halestorm & Alice Cooper in 2019 in Virginia. There was a thunderstorm that rolled in during their set and it was like they summoned the storm for a back beat. Absolutely @#$?@! incredible show.
You look so excited and terrified at the same time. It's amazing.
I think her most powerful recorded live vocal may be when she was invited to duet "That's Damn Rock n, Roll" with Eric Church at the CMA awards. Her gritty screams were amazing!
The people in the crowd didn’t know how to react she’s such a powerhouse
Listen to the song “break in” from halestorm feat. Amy lee it’s done beautifully and it’s just the 2 of them live singing in a recording studio together
I am helplessly, hopelessly in love with Lzzy Hale.
