    "Ozzy was never an opera singer but he at least knew what neighborhood the correct key his songs lived in, and would drive past it screaming through a fog of hallucinations and to whatever was in front of his face..."
    Now that was hilarious.

    that bit with Axel Rose had me rolling, i could watch that clip of him warbling like Alan Wilson just swallowed a handful of old saltines with no water all day long, coupled with his increasingly painful grimacing between each failed attempt at singing words to his own songs makes this whole video an instant classic

      acdc14terrace Even if Axl could sing like he used too it would still be sad. Not as sad as David Lee roth but still. It's weird how some bands-singers can age well and other can't. Guys like Brian Johnson, Bruce Dickenson, Bono and Geddy Lee are all older and are still much better than than Axl or Roth

    • @phibeslives4048
      @phibeslives4048 9 років тому +4

      the seeker
      Roth is a perfect example of a guy who should hang it up, at least when it comes to singing live. I think the guys who rely on the high notes and screaming are the ones most effected by time. The dudes with the lower voices and falsettos seem to be able to sing well into their fifties.

    • @jumpboy29
      @jumpboy29 9 років тому +3

      Phibes Lives It's not just their voice degrading over time, thats gonna happen and I accept that, it's something else that bugs me in their demeanor. To me Axl just isn't himself anymore, like he is just not comfortable having fun with the music. I think deep down he knows he screwed up a good thing. Who knows just my thoughts.
      At least Roth seems to be having fun but he doesn't sing well and on top of that he doesn't seem to have any creative interest in the band . Van Halen made a huge disastor of a mistake by dumping Hagar imo

    Axl Rose's ego is so huge he thought he could retire from music and comeback over 10 years later and pick up where he left off.

    The Ozzy video can be explained. If you've ever tried singing on stage with a band, you know that it can be very hard to hear yourself. When it's hard to hear yourself, it's almost impossible to sing perfectly in tune. Ozzy is almost entirely deaf, and Black Sabbath plays notoriously loud shows.

    Seeing what people like Axl Rose has turned into makes me wonder what would have happened to iconic stars who died too young if they hadnt died. Would Jim Morrison or Kurt Cobain pull an Axl too? If Axl had died at 27 would he be remembered as a huge icon rather than the massive asshole he was and is?

    • @andrewm827
      @andrewm827 9 років тому +12

      GroovingPict Jim Morrison would have pulled an Axl for sure. Kurt Cobain would stay cool. So would Jimi Hendrix.

    • @TheSmokey1424
      @TheSmokey1424 9 років тому +2

      The way Axl sung required him to be in great shape. The same with Robert Plant. Jim morrison sang low alot so he would be able to sing, and kurt cobain had a really great voice although i dont think he could be 50 and do his voice cracking thing that he used to do

    • @skellymom
      @skellymom 9 років тому +8

      Andrew M I feel that Hendrix would have helped other new stars rise in the music industry. Perhaps I am too optimistic? Jimi might have still performed, but from some interviews, I think he would have helped produced and play on albums and collab with other artists. Feel that Jimi would have stayed just as cool as BB King did.

  • @backslash68
    @backslash68 9 років тому +53

    3:00 no, those are NOT the original members of Van Halen, because there is Eddie's son on bass and not Michael Anthony. And what happened there is not entirely their fault - the pre-recorded keyboard track was played at the wrong sample rate by a rather incompetent stage technician. Kind of like 48Khz played at 44.1Khz, creates a transposition of a fraction of a semitone and there is no way to compensate that by moving to another key.

      +backslash68 :Cracked most of your stuff is funny BUT any musician knows it was the sequenced track that was off key so making fun of Edward isn't cool. Don't know how high the band was to do the microphone shtick though. Eddie, Edward is what he prefers to be address as, is a stab in the back to Michael Anthony? They aren't as good with Wolfie!

    • @alekszael3094
      @alekszael3094 9 років тому +4

      Nope! The keyboard track was 100% right. Eddie forgot to grab his standard tuned guitar; thus, was playing in his usual 1/2 step down tuning. So, it sounded like shit.

    In regards to the Van Halen performance, what happened was that the backing track they were playing to (the synth stabs) was accidentally converted to a different sample rate which made it so the members were playing the OG parts but out of tune with the backing track. You can see the guitarist try to find the key by trying different ones.

      I'm in my thirties. He was popular when I was in my very late teens. I never said that I considered him to be a thing with the current teens... but that is about the right age group for 17-year-olds to be culturally aware of him, rather than the other groups, which are geared more towards people my age and older. There's a jarring disconnect in the age groups of the bands listed in the video is all I'm saying. It makes it unclear who the audience for this video is.

      Jason Gormally I don't think there is a jarring disconnect at all. Black Sabbath was for children of the 70's, Van Halen was for children of the 80's, Gun's N' Roses was for children of the 90's and Limp Bizkit was for children of 00's.

    Edward Van Halen can't play guitar and keyboards at the same time (no one can), so they use pre-recorded keyboard tracks (that Eddie played) for certain songs. Eddie tunes his guitar to Eb. For whatever reason, the guitar in this video is tuned to E, so it sounds out-of-tune compared to the pre-recorded keyboard track. Why a roadie or guitar tech didn't hear what was going on (as it is blatantly apparent to anyone with musical ears), and bring him a properly tuned guitar is beyond me.

    To be fair to Van Halen, the synthesizer part was played through the sound system at the wrong frequency, which made it higher pitched than the instruments were supposed to be playing. Not entirely Eddie's fault, and I'm sure if the bass were more audible, it would be right out of tune with him.

    • @elanasilverman1107
      @elanasilverman1107 7 років тому

      That's a flawed conclusion but you pose a good question. Aging... is bad for you (sucks about the alternatives) but technical mastery goes a long way to preserving a voice once you've developed it. From there, people don't age overnight (well, at least, not by more than about eight hours per) - Michael Bolton, who moved in much the same artistic circles as Ozzy Osbourne and opened for Black Sabbath before unsuccessfully auditioning for the band's lead singer spot, recently performed on Last Week Tonight. The performance is flawless, even alongside one from nearly 30 years ago. Whatever's going on with Ozzy and Van Halen... "old" ain't the problem. And then there's Billie Holliday, the greatest Jazz singer of...ever... Holliday died in her 40's, but her voice was already damaged. Wikipedia cites the substance abuse for damaging her vocal cords, but "We don't treat [black people] at this hospital" was considered mission statement material at the time and she can't have used any more chemicals than Elvis did. And yet, her late recordings count among her finest. So, it's complicated. But chronological age probably isn't the deciding factor until quite late in the game.

    Just because someone is great doesn't mean they can't be over the hill. I honestly think it's the artists who do not look back to their glory days that do the best. The ones who are constantly out there making new music, new collaborations, new albums year after year, taking risks. A net benefit is that their performing skills are always on point so that when they do one of the hits they can still give it poignancy.
