@@howiseeit5326 Everyone claims Rob was lip syncing. 1 Rob has literally seemed ill to some extent (probably all the theater stuff [apple juice fog + other junk]) and tours like a monster with focus on stunts beyond vocals. Even veterans like Korn envy the effects Rob does, but likely avoid the extra stress (considering Rob is likely also in charge of most of the legal/construction as a director of movies) of doing such. Performing one good set while healthy is not an issue for Rob. It may sound better because he is healthier? Further, as he is friends with Howard Stern, and for fun produced song to prove that even Howard (live included) could sound well with the mastery of vocal coding effects Rob does/contributes to - does not mean anything less of him during this. He, like many, see Alice Cooper as an inspiration and motivation to try and do more on stage. He doesn't lie on his records or on stage about audio effects - as he is all about the stage.

I saw the Godsmack/Zombie show at Darien Lake, NY. I went to see my favorite band Godsmack, and I watched Zombie blow them out of the country. Tommy Clufetos has to be the hardest working, greatest concert drummer I've ever seen. Piggy was great, 5 was awesome and Zombie put on one crazy show.
This song for me pretty much symbolizes that RZ hasn't sold out. The truth is he's just been around for quite awhile, so he's getting more radio play and mainstream exposure like all older rockers do. He's no spring chicken anymore. He's just not up to going fast and hard all the time, but as American Witch proves he can still rock it out when he wants to
i agree, no lip sync.. he's known for breathlessness during a concert but has improved monstrously.. no lip sync at all.. if you listen he short lines, skips words or shorten the verse to keep up..... saw him and ozzy in detroit in december 2007 and by christ, did he rule the show, awesome!!!!!!!
It’s not actually lip sync’d.. I think the sound board had effects on his vocals.. if you listen to the original track he doesn’t cut off his words at the end of sentences like he does in this video... it’s just a vocal effect on his voice is all it is... 100% no lip sync
Performing live and in the studio are two totally different beasts. He's cutting his words off because he's out of breath mainly. All that moving around puts a real strain on you. Something you don't get in the studio.
DAMMIT! I love the skeletal-props used on the stage plus the green-flames on the metal-objects, they add an extra-layer of Gothic-Sleaziness that (to me at least!) is so dynamic! This is all-ready my favorite Rob Zombie song
zombie is a badass live, he sounds amazing live, ive seen him many times live, the only difference between this and his "actual" live shows is he isnt running around and being out of breath
Zombie puts on a great stage show, he is a great performer, his antics on stage drive the music to the extreme, he gets your blood pumping and your feet stomping, unless your dead. The entire complex of people are moving in a great wave, it is a great concert. The drummer is insane, as great as they come, every member puts on the best show for everyone,like your the first concert. You that say negative comments have never been to one of the concerts...
i have to agree with metalhead here. john 5 has got to be one of the most skilled guitarists i have ever heard. He can play many types of music, he has all his theory down and most importantly he knows how to make good music.
I've seen him in concert a number of times and each show he opened with this song!!! What a pump. The come out with the mask, smoke, the long trench coats!!! Awesome Rob...Flat out Awesome!!
I saw him in concert 3 times last year. He opened with this song each time. Talk about starting a show off with energy!! It was dam near overwhelming! Long live the Zombie!!
I just saw him less than a year ago and he was running around and jumping like he was 20. I don't know what you are talking about. Everything was live, and it was amazing. It's not pre-recorded at his concerts. TV yeah probably because most of it is required by the station.
I agree. People need to remember that these guys are pros, and they always play live with a click track to keep them at the original tempo, and also for the sound clips that are used in the songs. Rob has alot of extra bits and pieces added into his music that is played through a backtrack during live performances in order to capture the true power of the song. Can you imagine a Rob Zombie performance with just the live instruments going? It wouldn't be the same at all!
I wonder how loud that was in the actual studio? You get a pretty broad spectrum of people at these things (I was at the Tonight Show once...and you have old people, young people, middle aged people, etc)...and I can see a lot of people with their fingers in their ears screaming to their husband/wife "Who are these people? Why are they all scary and loud?" lol
Ahhh, the beautiful harmonies and melodic instrumentation/vocals and driving rythm reminds me of the days when I was 6 years old and left for hours to wonder in the city cemetery! ahhh those were the days....
Sam Mitchell Bro I love Rob, but he definitely alters his vocals live. Listen to any live performance when he speaks to the crowd. This may or may not be lol synced but he definitely alters his vocals live. I mean who doesn't anymore lol
Vyrisus I don't think he is either. But every time I've seen him live (11 times) he sounds like he has his vocals a bit altered, like that of the chorus effect on a guitar. Sounds just like it live. Nothing wrong with it to be honest. If I can turn on my wah pedal to make my soloing sound better, then singers could do the same with microphones. Just enjoy the show everyone!!
Seen him live three times this year! Awesome show. Love that dam drummer. He is back there in his own world everytime just rockin his ass off! Watch him in any zombie clip or show you see!
zombie kicks ass! great song i saw him with ozzy osbourne and in this moment at the staples center. he was soo badass with a skull mask and john5 shreds!!
This was better than the album version! Especially his deeper voice. Drawn to this song because of the phrase American Witch. I'm full Native and I'm sure people have heard of Skinwalkers. But in my culture, they are witches. So just connecting modern life with past experiences...
That's bad ass. I've never EVER seen a bad show from White Zombie/Rob Zombie. Who wouldn't be cool so have Zombie in their name? I wished I'd been in the audience. Those lights are wicked.
OMG... this video made me shed a tear... that crowd is getting to see a live Rob Zombie concert with damn near front row seats... and all they can do is CLAP? C'mon... if I would there I would've been cheering and headbanging through the entire song!
I saw Rob in Calgary in August last year, even though he dressed his stage down a lot from his Hellbilly days, it was a first rate rock show, just awesome. Some people have it, some people wish they did....Rob's got it
If there are any Rob Zombie fans here who haven't listened to He Is Legend's Suck Out the Poison album, you should give it a try. Rob Zombie was one of their big influences, and it shows on that album the most. Their other albums are good as well.
Zombie has ben asked that before and he keeps saying the same thing, "I like to bring my music I put on CDs to the stage, what you hear in the album is what you hear when I preform live." ;) just so you know :P
I met John5 at Fender (He is indorsed by them) and didnt know it was him because he was normal! lol Really nice guy. I see him here and I am impressed he can transform into a mad man:D awesome! Sweet song Rob!
John 5 has the be one the most underrated guitarists of our generation.
He's creative. Especially knowing how Manson and Zombie want to sound. Talented as fuck.
John 5 is legend just media dont know it

Those are like the best live vocals I've ever heard him project.

@@Alucard24601 alot of people lip sync when they play on TV

Love me some John 5.
He spat at me during a crowed surf to this song . . 2006
@@savagekock ewww yuck, thats pretty damn gross...
Ya, then he leaves to join.....Motley Crue?!?!?!

Tommy Clufetos, you're the man!
When my kids ask me ''Daddy, what music did you listen to when you where our age?'' I'll show them this.
Fun fact this was Piggy D’s first show with zombie after Blasko left and now he’s been in it over a decade
Letterman was cool ..he really liked this kind of music..he loved the foo fighters..rob always said they kept in touch..
I remember watching this live on tv and thinking holy shit!! they are rocking the fuck out on Letterman like this!!??

I'm glad I got a high quality version of this saved on my hard drive was a sick performance.
THEE BEST ROB ZOMBIE LINEUP EVER!!!
Energy makes me feel good.
Also, it relaxes me. Yes, I'd call it an emotion.

We Need More Bands Out There Withn This Kind Of Look + That Jacket Is SO Awesome
I can Taste Monster Energy while i'm listening to American Witch Good Work Guys
If I was 1% as awesome as Rob Zombie I would be 100 times more awesome than I am right now... #FoodForThought
😂😂😂😂😂
john 5 should make an album for ozzy
this has to be the biggest stage production for letterman ever.. this is awesome . had not seen it..thanks for posting.. john 5 is the shit..
Best Letterman show ever.
john five save the band
Dark Alesso would 100% agree with this this line up for me is the best zombie has ever been
This is a great Rob Zodiac performance!
I am sure the audience filled with 50-60 year old people loved this hahahahaha. Zombie nation!
Wow what a performance. Sounds awesome
Great performance
I think this is where I became a metalhead. I thought this was so cool. Still is, really.
OH yeah Zombie ROCKS. Seen him in StLouis, very good show. Actually one of the better shows I have seen. OUTSTANDING
He totally kicked ass in Fargo last night!! My ears are still ringing!!
"Alice Cooper light" but Rob Zombie is great! :-)
This is 100% live. No lipsync here. He has chorus, reverb and a slight delay on his voice, but it's really him singing live.
One of my favorite rob zombie songs
I can’t watch this enough

Probably Robs best live vocal performance. Usually he sounds like an asthmatic 90-year-old
As he said, Rob is the only guest on Letterman that ACTUALLY fucking rocks.
still the heaviest i've ever hear rob.
John 5 really lets loose here
I wish the sound quality was far more clearer but beggers can't be choosers,right??
its on the CRT tv has no Sound Quality
One of the best on YT.
Ahhh, the beautiful harmonies and melodic instrumentation/vocals and driving rythm reminds me of the days when I was 6 years old and left for hours to wonder in the city cemetery! ahhh those were the days....

hes a big reason i wanted to play guitar in the first place
Going to Zombie and Manson on October 30th. Seen him several times, rockin show and good times.
I must have watched this 1000 times and NEVER get tired of it! I love watching the drummer...this is still KICK ASS!
Goldang, Rob Zombie has got to be the best showman around. Excellent excellent stuff

You almost never here a band do just about as good on a cd live. Rob Zombie kicks ass!
So heavy so good
Rob Zombie always kicks ass!
Rob zombie is amazing!
one Word "LEGEND"
That's bad ass. I've never EVER seen a bad show from White Zombie/Rob Zombie. Who wouldn't be cool so have Zombie in their name? I wished I'd been in the audience. Those lights are wicked.

Power to the musically respectful people in this world and people that listen to all music and love it for what it really is.

cool,they look friggn awesome in that skele stuff,and the song is kickass
