    Today's video highlight ten of the most difficult metal songs to sing! Obviously I could make 100 of these videos because there is so much vocal talent in metal. It was hard to choose just 10 songs for this video, and I'd love to hear your suggestions in the comments for another video like this.
    0:44 1 "We All Die Young" - Steel Dragon/Steelheart
    3:20 2 "Given Up" - Linkin Park
    4:40 3 "Ghost Love Score" - Nightwish
    6:39 4 "Deadhead" - Devin Townsend
    7:54 5 "War Cry " - Outworld
    9:34 6 "Painkiller" - Judas Priest
    10:44 7 "Love Hate Love" - Alice In Chains
    12:06 8 "Through the Fire and Flames" - Dragonforce

    First of all: I really enjoyed your Video.
    I totally agree with your opinion on Ghost Love Score. I sang it with 16 Years but only Classical Style, because it was the original by Tarja. I always said : it cannot be that difficult and it is overrated, until i first heard Floors Version.
    Today I can also say with all this technical things it is much more difficult.
    I missed Blind and Frozen from Beast in Black a bit.

    Some perhaps lesser known songs that definitely could be on this list:
    Shaman - Fairy Tale
    Songs from Mike Patton, like Moonchild-Abraxas. You never hear such control on such high screams
    Twilight Force - Twilight Horizon
    Anything from Dale Thompson, he's a christian rock singer with 6 octaves (C1-Eb7) of vocal range that he has kept up into his late 50s. Tons of his songs are crazy hard to sing.
    Majestica - Father Time (tried this as a karaoke once, it's way harder than it sounds)
    Luca Turilli's Rhapsody - Ascending to Infinity
    Sone female representation: Seven Spires - God is Dead. The diversity of vocals in this would be so hard to cover

    Lorna Shore, To the hellfire - Me personally not a big fan, but you gotta acknowledge Will Ramos and what he is doing for harsh vocals.
    Slaughter to prevail, Demolisher - not a lot of people can hit that low note, he deserves a mention
    Hypocrisy, Taste the extreme divinity - range, the way Peter Tägtgren goes from insanely low growls to highs is insane, also his tone of screaming is what got me personally into death metal and harsh vocals.
    Strapping young lad, Shitstorm - Devin there hits the same, or even higher notes than Deadhead. Which already deserves to be on such a list, but cmon lets change things a bit.

    Infant Annihilator - Blasphemian. Before Will Ramos, Dickie was already slaying with his unique screams and growls.
    Beyond Deviation - White Noise. Freaking whistle screams.
    Archspire - Bleed The Future or almost anything by Archspire. The sheer velocity and precision of his diction is beyond me.
    Shadow Of Intent - The Heretic Prevail. The breakdown. Enough said.
    Vektor - Terrastructural Minds. The high pitched screams of the beginning and at the end of the song.
    Slaughter To Prevail - Demolisher. Unbelievably low growls in Russian nonetheless.

    Hey! I love this video! PLEASE - MOREEEE OF THIS CONTENT!
    I personally think every Linkin Park song is a hell to sing if you're not into mix the prince and the beast in the same person (wish I could)
    Of course Nightwish had to be in there! Still my favorite band since I was 11! Nightwish was super enhanced by Floor! I would love if people could give some credits for After Forever! She does that on the band since the start!
    I think André Mattos, one of the most incredible metal vocalists that passed away years ago gave Fairy Tale:

    I think metal has the most difficult songs ever, but that guy - is beyond!

    That was Scott Travis the drummer of Judas Priest, not Ripper Owens who much later became the vocalist. Also, there are far worse examples of Mark Wahlberg's actual vocal skills. There's a shower scene in that movie he did about being in the Army, and also his singing in Boogie Nights.

      Right - I know the difference between Scott and Ripper 😆 I don’t think you realized it’s a a clip of a interview where Scott is speaking about hiring Ripper. I am not sure why you would think I was mistaking Scott for Ripper. The edit is not confusing.

    I have managed to sing Nightwish perfectly once. It is one that I do practice often but lately I have been sick which has affected my high end.
    I also sing Linkin Park. I get close with the scream from Chester. Some times I can do it, some times I can't. I haven't tried recently though.

    It always cracks me up when I come across videos using clips from that Ripper Owens MTV feature that I uploaded to UA-cam around '07/'08. 🤣🤣When I recorded it on VHS back around '97/'98 I had no clue that it would eventually still be getting watched on the internet by people around the world 20+ years later.

    I can do Painkiller but I can't do Boston-More than a feeling (all the rest of Boston yes)
    I don't even want to practice the range in Steelheart She's gone AND I'll never let you go.
    But I like doing Incubus - Love Hurts. Rarely get through Aerosmith -Dream On
    If it's a difficult song I have to have it Perfect in my mind. (I don't) Everything, no improv at all. All the workouts to get that range non-volitile again.
    Thankfully I grew up on pentatonic scale rock so now there is that challange.
    Jogging and breathwork songs.... maybe tomorrow.

      Ok I did something dumb this weekend. New song for me Scorpions-The Zoo He uses a voice box mic a lot. Besides singing I decided to do the voicebox part with throat singing. It sounds great and I switch to the base line at one point from harmony. I had too much fun, now I have a little burn spot in my throat and I have to leave it ALL alone. One week? Two weeks? What to do? Warm salt water? Serrapeptase? Yawn stretches? Just to speed it up, what would you do?

I noticed the singer seemed to sound exactly like in the movie, turns out he is the guy who’s voice they used for that movie! I can’t remember who the band was.
