People can down on Slipknot, on Stone Sour all they want but that will never disprove to me that Corey Taylor is one of the best rock vocalist in the world and one of the most down to Earth people I could ever hope to meet!
An absolutely AMAZING voice... Like I think he's one of the best vocalists there is... The range, from stuff like this and Snuff to the harder Slipknot stuff... Just so good. He makes it sound so rich and painful and emotional. Love it, love him... Muoy man crush lol❤
Just Me better than chester. His vocal range is beastly 5 and a half octaves. Although chester can sing higher i believe his range is around 3 and a half octaves. They are both vocal geniuses but i prefer corey taylors raw sound better its so good live.

everythingends555 Corey´s vocal range to 5(+) octaves is asymmetrically balanced, but it´s hardly around 3 (-/+) clean. It´s not his "vocal range" that makes people listen to him =) He´s pitchy in this video for example trying to reach just some of those Em7(?). He can´t use headvoice at all, but has an amazing chestvoice. It´s his vocal tone that is very specific; harsh/raw but still fragile sounding. Vocals are technically rated, and Corey uses a mashup of growl/scream/clean because his clean vocals are very limited due to him being a baritone with bad technique. That doesn´t matter though, obviously. Tone is what counts.
what makes Corey such a great artist, is the charisma that he provides, the dedication and emotion he puts into each song, I mean you can literally feel the emotion in his lyrics every time he sings, he is a legend and anybody who disagrees doesn't know what makes music, music
Jesse Gillis could just say hes an artist in every possible way but thats too easy and to be honest doesnt sum up enough because he is so much more than that. at times he can be the artist then other times he himself is a unique work of art. this man just fascinates the absolute crap out of me and whether it be in a documentary or a performance, interview whatever... he is just so interesting and it makes me just want to explore my own artist ways more and more..

+Hugo Joubert Sounds more like a Genki Dama to me (I feel that one could make a contextual argument about this), but I'll never disagree with what you said regarding this.
You would be surprised how many people right good poetry and lyrics and don't realize how amazingling deep and relatable it is and how it could benefit allot of others going through similar things. Or just come up with some badass songs at the least
I think he's one of the best vocalists out there. Slipknot and stone sour have amazing songs. He's all around great, he's sexy, talented as hell and seems like an awesome guy.
1:55 minor mistake. But I actually like that. Show's he's human. And the way he plays and song totally expresses that! He put's so much emotion in this. Amazingly inspiring and beautiful.
I've recently been diagnosed with depression and have been fighting off suicidal thoughts and this is now one of my go to songs. Hoping one day I can look back on it, just as you've done here, thanks for the inspiration! 💛
@@arshaddahlan Thank you and I’m thinking of you. Please get thru each day. I pray that God keeps you close. Love is a state of being and we can all be in it together. This month will bring many changes. Follow Wall Street Silver for hope! Buy silver if you can. You’ll see. If not, wait until mid-late month for the change. God bless you. Keep going!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
After watching interviews, acoustic performances and misc. I have to say Corey and his neck are pretty damn funny, respectful and honest. Great guy and extremely talented artist.
I know some might pick this singing performance apart, but his heart and soul is in that voice so it's just perfect. He is a really incredible singer and once he hits those highs a lot of other singers would drop off. In fact, apparently he is capable of 5 and a half octaves, which is pretty incredible. This guy is a born musician, he has been living it for his whole life. Interesting read this guy is.
You have to give him props not only on his voice but the playing. This song is mostly barre chords and doing that on an acoustic is probably challenging. He manages it well, that's kinda to be expected seeing as it's his song ;D but he's pretty awesome, I love this version
you cant fuck with Corey. I hope you all appreciate how much hes done to keep, rock, and metal alive. I mean; at this point he's a fucking SAINT! Send this man x-mas cards
Corey Taylor is by far one of the most talented of time and error. People underrate him and talk shit but They really cant say much because not to many artists can switch up the type of music they play and successfully do it. He is one of the few. Im not huge on slip knot but i do give him props to be able to do that typ of vocal talent to this type, Its not easy to sound without the stuio help. Acoustic is raw and he kills it. I love it.
I don't care what anyone says about slipknot or stone sour, if Corey Taylor is during it. Its going to awesome. I personally haven't heard a song by him I didn't like.
Cory is so damn real. Love this guy to pieces. My favorite lead singer of all time is Ian Gillan but damn Cory you have come so far so quickly.(10 years) Such passion. His ability to carry a tune...harmonize and yet still scream with the best of them is really inspiring. Many can do one of the three but he stands out in his ability to do all three well. Song has inspired men through out history. I was song that brought us into this world and it is often song that leads us to the next life.
Corey is just amazing! The ability to perform such a range is extraordinary! His attitude and honesty is raw! I have so much admiration and respect for him as not only a musician, but as a person! Simply a legend!
Corey's voice can give you goosebumps just from the screams or make you absolutely emotional with a ballad. One of the best of the best. One of the reasons I feel "blessed" to be a metalhead and a fan of BOTH of his bands. Thank you Corey!
I an such a great fan of Corey, in every way he sings , I love his screams/grunts I love his humor but also his quit songs he is in my opinion one of the best metal vocalists
People can down on Slipknot, on Stone Sour all they want but that will never disprove to me that Corey Taylor is one of the best rock vocalist in the world and one of the most down to Earth people I could ever hope to meet!
Give this guy a medal.
Two Words..... Layne Staley
xXDarkDubstepXx give him a cookie while your at it

I love Corey's voice... so powerful and melodic at the same time.

Corey Taylor is a legend and by far one of the best vocalist that I could think of
pablo Crawford right up there with that dude from linkinpark, Chester Bennington i think hes called.

ThomasSaPe yea your right
This is such a relaxing song, I can't even describe how I feel listening to this. Like a forgotten nostalgia that never happened
Damn, well put lol
Omg so much
💯 it takes me a lot to feel shit and this does it for me.

Jesse Gillis have u read his book??
Seven Deadly Sins? It's really 👍🏻 good
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
(Solo: Corey)
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries
And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on…
I'll never live down my deceit
ty
I love how he stops to applaud the audience part way through, and the ease with he interacts with them. Very impressive.
Corey Taylor's voice is as powerful as Goku's kamehameha
This guy he knows what's up
Or Ichigos Getsuga or Narutos Rasengan (we'll stay there right now.)
+Hugo Joubert Sounds more like a Genki Dama to me (I feel that one could make a contextual argument about this), but I'll never disagree with what you said regarding this.
Don't compare him to garbage ass Anime
#TRIGGERED
When you find out he wrote this in high school...
Luke Essinger when did he say that ?
During one of his solo tour question and answers sessions
Luke Essinger preach.
Love Corey! PS. I'm a chick. Lol
Not surprising. Anyone suicidal thinks this way
You would be surprised how many people right good poetry and lyrics and don't realize how amazingling deep and relatable it is and how it could benefit allot of others going through similar things. Or just come up with some badass songs at the least
One of the few people I’ve ever seen who sounds as good or better alone with guitar than with a band on a record. Legend
He will never get old. This shit will be played for century's. He one of the best.
I love how easy it is to tell that he is such a golden-hearted and humble person!
I think he's one of the best vocalists out there. Slipknot and stone sour have amazing songs. He's all around great, he's sexy, talented as hell and seems like an awesome guy.
couldn't have put it better myself! :-)
Except for the sexy part, I agree.
2:17 Damn, these skiers look really happy to see Corey!!
Shit!! Corey Is a Monster!!
voice of gold
Gold of voice.
xXDarkDubstepXx Of gold voice.
dlog fo eciov
Shagrath Sup fo dlog ecoiv
voice of god
1:55 minor mistake. But I actually like that. Show's he's human. And the way he plays and song totally expresses that! He put's so much emotion in this. Amazingly inspiring and beautiful.
One of the best artists and performers of the late 90's and 2000's.
easily , so damn good
Unbelievable range
The lad is a legend
Man this guy has contributed some of my favourite music across 2 bands, I think slipknot or sour still don't get the hype they deserve.
liked for profile pic
@3:20: The moment every musician lives and dies for!
At the end when everyone sings along must have made Corey feel so humble. :,-)
Seen both Slipknot and Stone Sour live. I prefer a live Stone Sour. I love me some Slipknot, But Stone Sour lets Cory use his full vocal range.
This was a pivotal song for me. I can still feel that time in life thru it.
I've recently been diagnosed with depression and have been fighting off suicidal thoughts and this is now one of my go to songs. Hoping one day I can look back on it, just as you've done here, thanks for the inspiration! 💛

I think he has a big heart and is a great artist
you so beautiful
that face when he messed up 1:55
I notice it's the wrong note every time but I've always assumed it was just my ears.
AvengedDreamer on acoustic guitar it's hard to play this song...so he simpled it a little bit
He was like wtf lol
This is the best acoustic set of all time! Hands Down!
corey Taylor's range is ridiculous. from this to psychosocial and back
I believe he stated he has a 5 octave range, respect.
@@TheWeerm damn I have 2 at best
"Wow, I need to quit obsessing over David Draiman."
*turns on ipod*
"Ooh, Stone Sour!"
*begins Corey Taylor obession*
After watching interviews, acoustic performances and misc. I have to say Corey and his neck are pretty damn funny, respectful and honest. Great guy and extremely talented artist.
In one moment I thought he'll shed a tear :O !! Excellent performance :3
so perfect,love his voice his lyrics he is a musical genius no doubt..
I know some might pick this singing performance apart, but his heart and soul is in that voice so it's just perfect. He is a really incredible singer and once he hits those highs a lot of other singers would drop off. In fact, apparently he is capable of 5 and a half octaves, which is pretty incredible.

I always come here for 2:58. This is fucking awesome :D
Yeah dude, i wish i could hit that high notes.
actually it's not that high, Corey's got low voice just like me. But he uses distortion to reach higher notes so that's why it sounds so high
Mateusz Sokołowski Yeah, i have low voice too. But his distortion sounds so clean imo
one of the best vocalist in this kinda music, so even with raspy voice he sounds like an angel :D
Mateusz Sokołowski Agreed bro.
When you realize you’ve never actually tried your voice so much that you scream and sing at the same time the vocal range unlocked by this man is wild
Corey fucking Taylor a living legend no fucking doubt about it
These are some of the best lyrics I've ever heard. Well written
So beautiful!😢💙
Will always love this song.. always a incredible experience with his music
Stunning performance! too much love for this guy ❤
He's my Idol, I want to sing just like him when I get older. I'm working on it.
You're older now. Did it work out?
Also curious to know how that worked out
Any update on how things came along? I've just discovered Corey and now I want to try to sing like him as well! 💛
You have to give him props not only on his voice but the playing. This song is mostly barre chords and doing that on an acoustic is probably challenging. He manages it well, that's kinda to be expected seeing as it's his song ;D but he's pretty awesome, I love this version
do barre chords still seem hard 8 years later?
All time my favorite singer of all time. Thanks Corey for my childhood
you cant fuck with Corey. I hope you all appreciate how much hes done to keep, rock, and metal alive. I mean; at this point he's a fucking SAINT! Send this man x-mas cards
soo good!
Corey Taylor + Beard = Chris Pratt
TRoss240 he should join mouse-rat
Love all of his acoustic performances, his voice so elegant , You feel all the power of the words
That smile at the end!!! I love it so much. Hes such a beautiful man.
One of the best things I have ever seen..... :3
+PaulHairyManlyFace Corey is beast

Great vocals. Very talented. Cant get enough of this song.
He is so beautifully talented... I love hearing him acoustic 🌛
03:12 such a beautiful moment
I don't care what anyone says about slipknot or stone sour, if Corey Taylor is during it. Its going to awesome. I personally haven't heard a song by him I didn't like.
This is SICK! I love both versions live and pre-recorded
Such a beautiful piece
Cory is so damn real. Love this guy to pieces. My favorite lead singer of all time is Ian Gillan but damn Cory you have come so far so quickly.(10 years)
Such passion. His ability to carry a tune...harmonize and yet still scream with the best of them is really inspiring. Many can do one of the three but he stands out in his ability to do all three well.

From that point of view, he kinda looks like Chris Pratt. Just sayin'.
+I'm DraCard kinda true xD
Was just thinking the same thing before I saw this comment haha, even sings the same way.
lol I see it
No. Chris Pratt looks like Corey Taylor
All I see is a neck?
Absolutely amazing.
Corey is just amazing! The ability to perform such a range is extraordinary! His attitude and honesty is raw! I have so much admiration and respect for him as not only a musician, but as a person! Simply a legend!

voice of real man not that like k-pop or one direction
just enjoy the good music. Music is not a competition..
Real music.
how about let's not tear down other genres and just enjoy what music we like.
That neck is built just like a "Bose" sound system.
Agree
I imagine Corey performing this majestic song with an orchestra.
he already done it
I'm absolutely loving this! Cory has an incredible voice. He could serenade me any day!!!
god i love this song, wish i was listening to the radio that day
This is voice
200 dislike??!!?

András Balogh they must have taped wrong vid came here looking for Elton John, metal should be only music on youtube

Gorgeous voice
One of my favz! Luv it!
I think my favorite part is 0-4:30
Corey Taylor kind of reminds me of Chris Pratt

"He wrote this in high school... WOW as they say his dark times and memory's became the world's entertainment.
Fuckin awesome.
I was an amazing stripper and Bother made me $12, 000 I cant tell you how awesome Stone Sour is with words to me!!!
