Crime Doesn't Pay!!! More Sebastian Bach with a Vocal Analysis of Skid Row's "18 And Life"
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- I expected harsh vocals and demonic undertones before my first listen to Skid Row a few months ago, which were ultimately shattered by Sebastian Bach's sweet tenor range and beautiful ensemble of "I Remember You". I think that stems from having lived next to Skid Row in Los Angeles, and projecting. This time, I was prepared. Or was I?
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Skid Row performing "18 and Life".

WHY NOT ASK BACH TO BE ON THE SHOW? Bet he'd do it.
I was thinking the same i think he would love it!!
Baz loves talking about singing and the work you have to put in to be successful. He is a loud personality at times, but I bet it would be fun listening to you two geek out over the art.
Agree 1000%!!!
Yes! I bet he’d do it in a heartbeat
DO IT!!! Ask him. 🙏✌️
Skid Row's Wasted Time will astound you!
I’ll back this up!
Wasted Time is literally his best.
Respectfully, that song stinks :). I get it, you guys like sad songs, but the song is nothing special. "Youth gone wild" and "Slave to the grind" are great.
@@ticket67 Yeah? Well, you know, that's just like uh, your opinion, man.
It's good, but in a Darkened room is better.
I would love to see a conversation between Elizabeth and Sebastian Bach. We all want to see it. Let's make it happen
YESSSS PLEASE!!!!!🙏
Sebastian Bach is, in my humble opinion, one of the most underrated rock vocalists of all time. I hardly ever hear him mentioned when people mention the greatest vocalists or greatest frontmen.
Agreed. I think part of the problem is Skiw Row just gets lumped into that generic last wave of hair metal trying to hang on while grunge was taking over the world. A lot of those bands don't really get judged on their own merit but as weird products of their time. Sebastian Bach definitely stands out as one of the greater talents from that scene.
Its absolutely criminal how much Bach and Skid Row in general get ignored in the wider world. Same thing with Savatage and the Oliva boys.
Cuz he's not
@@parithian8462I think the trained vocalist, vocal coach, and vocal researcher who’s video you are commenting on proves otherwise.
@parithian8462 : The first three Skid Row albums are great so you are clueless to his vocals.
Let’s not forget how good the guitar solos are in this song! Perfect compliment to Bachs voice.
Scotti Hill is even underappreciated by the cameras. They concentrated so much on Dave Sabo because of looks that they barely even show that Scotti played this solo. Killer guitarist that usually played the slower melodic solos like this, Wasted Time and so forth.
@@grilledspaghettiScott is a better guitar player
@@ericm4426 They had different roles. Dave is more Staccato and Scotti Legato. Matter of taste, though Scotti is for me also "better". I think the skill level was about as even as a guitar team ever was or could be.
@@grilledspaghetti Remember you guitar solo is magic 🎩
@@ericm4426 Self titled and Slave to the Grind have so many melodic solo's its hard to say which is my favourite 🙂
Skid row "Youth Gone Wild" is a Gen-X anthem ❤
Well said.🤘
that song came out when i was in the eighth grade and it described my friends and i well. we got in sooo much trouble back then.
Hell yeah! I was in 7th grade when it came out… oh man those were the days
I was mid-teens and in love with Sebastian and Skid Row 😂❤
As an early Gen-X, yes, it is.
Ricky is 53 now and 35 years into his life sentence
Bach was absolutely beautiful back in the day.
That was one of the criticisms of him back in the day: He was just too pretty and was written off by most general male metal/rock fans.
At some point, when listening to Sebastian Bach, everyone has a time where they think "Now hes just showing off."
And that is why we give him our money
If ya got it, flaunt it.🤘
😂😂 so true
Actually though I’ve seen multiple people say exactly this 😂 I think his passion really shows through in his vocals, he loves it
Just like many über talented vocalists, Mariah, Christina etc ..
35 years later, this song and his voice at the time still gives me goosebumps.
Yep. Every time I hear it since it was released.
Well said, Timeless... # 1 on my playlist for them, This whole album was excellent....
This video was played constantly in the golden age of MTV. Great to be a teen back then
he is a B leaguer though
I think Kirk might've helped Elizabeth conceive another embryo last night. Watch for a new baby in April 2025.😂
In a darkened room!! Not only his voice but also the lyrics will cause you to burst in tears...
I was at a rock festival in Sweden in 2005 where Sebastian played. The concert was awesome (I am/was a long time fan of Skid Row). Afterwards he held a meet and greet and my brother and I were first in line. He asked my name and I said Rikke and then he immediately sang the first verse of 18 and Life for me - switching "boy" with "girl". I was speechless. He was so sweet, kind and humble to talk to and I will never ever forget it.
'Quicksand Jesus' is the ideal song to showcase the vocal mastery of Bach!
You beat me to it.
Absolutely, it's definitely his best. \m/ Other great "Slave To The Grind" album tracks are Monkey Business, In a Darkened Room, and Wasted Time.
Totally, Wasted Time and Darkened Room are pretty impressive too vocally, they you have Youth Gone Wild that brings a total different vocal style!
@@alkiviadisfelemegkas7075 disagree. In a Darkened Room.
@@danno7583 In a darkened roo is SO DARK. And so great,
"Wasted Time" and "In a Darkened Room" MUST BE listen to you dearest Elizabeth. It will blown your mind for sure.
he has so much emotion in his voice in both songs both have a deep meaning for him
I second that for sure!
Quicksand Jesus too
My thoughts exactly!
Absolutely, these two are so essential. Freaking amazing
"Sebastian Bach is a satisfying cupcake with sprinkles" - Elizabeth Zharoff-07/13/24
It makes my heart so happy to hear your appreciation for all of these amazing vocalists and music groups that I grew up with and still love 30+ years later!!!!
"Slave To The Grind" is a must for gritty vocals!
Indeed. I hear "Monkey Business" all the time, but 'Slave' just ROCKS.
i back this! Slave to the Grind is great!
@@pufferzsola69 I'll add "Youth Gone Wild" to make this epic.
That's when I really started to dig Skid Row - they went in a much heavier direction on that album.
Slave to the grind is my favorite album. You get a lot of various styles in one album.
Skid Row was underrated in their time. Still listening to them 30 years later. Sebastian Bach was a beast!
How is a multi-platinum rockstar underrated 🤔
Underrated? They were international megastars!!!
@@bjrnarbjrnarsson5845they did get somewhat overshadowed by grunge in the early 90s.
@@Uphold-your-RightsThat's what I was going to say. Their debut album was a massive hit. But Slave to the Grind came out in mid 91, and shortly after that, Nirvana exploded, and grunge exploded with them. So even the good bands the preceded them had a tough time for a while. It was a wild time to be alive, and there was a ton of good music, but so much got overshadowed by the massive impact of grunge in the popular music scene.
they were never able to really recover after losing that baseball game against Pantera...
Sebastian is the true embodiment of a rockstar. He has the look, the style, the sound, the attitude, the lifestyle and his voice is one in a billion. Im so happy he's still making music and just put out a new album
We in Gen X didn't know how good we got it musically. I blame big hair and shoulder pads for skewing our perception.
We were numb to it. So much talent hit the scene in a very short time
Nah, I knew. It was f-cking EPIC!
Coulda been all the residual Hairnet mist in the air leftover from the 80's
I dunno man. I mean Poison is a great Rock band so is Tesla. Tom Keifer plays like 17 instruments. Hair metal got a bad rap. I mean if you listen to Something to Believe in or Life Goes on and tell me that dude can't write or sing I just can't talk to you
I knew damn well “that child blew a child away” was coming but it still gave me goosebumps and made the hair on my legs stand on end. Damn that man can sing
Same. Mind blowingly good!!! Can't imagine anyone else doing that so well. I actually watched the video just to see how she reacted to that specific part lol
“Balls to the wall goes for it”. The moment that the charismatic voice fully evolved into a full metal head for me.🤣🤣
This gives me the idea to listen to "Balls to the Wall" by Accept. With Udo Dirkschneider as singer! 😆
Fun fact: balls to the wall used to be Sebastian Bach's ringtone back in 2005/2006 😂
Nice shoutout to the band Accept. 😉
She does have a Metal Heart!
Elizabeth is my lady crush. She’s beautiful, classy, and intelligent. I was shocked to hear her use that expression. LOL!
Sebastian Bach's voice is like the perfect combination of all the great rock singers from the past. If you were creating a hard rock singer avatar and you pushed all the sliders as close to perfect as possible. Underrated.
I'm actually glad you started with these 2 fantastic bangers cuz skid row's "wasted time" will actually melt you mind.. just when you think that it can't get any better, they took "wasted time" to a whole new level.. it actually scary how good that song is..
Sebastian Bach is a walking metal encyclopedia. He not only sings but intensely studied the genre.
So is Dave Mustaine.
Elizabeth stuck 5 minutes in the first two sentences gives an idea of what a beast Sebastian is. A real beast, it's like a tiger that purrs and suddenly roars and shakes you inside.
Also I think Wasted Time showcase Sebastian's top tier vocals. There you can here the distortion he can achieve.
I was thinking the whole time, "She's spent a quarter of her video on the very first phrase ... and the best parts are still coming up."
When I first heard this, it blew me away. The lyrics, the music, the vocals, the storytelling, it’s a perfect song. What a voice!
Absolutely 1000% , he is so fun to talk with. You won't regret reaching out to him.
You could hear that song a million times
(and I have) and get the chills every time..
Yup!
Wasted Time is not only Sebastian's high-water mark for vocals, but the song is about Steven Adler's drug addiction. Steven was a very close friend to him and the emotion in that song is so strong. You can just feel it physically in his vocals. This is the song you need to hear from Sebastian and the boys.
❤ much respect for the info share. 🤘🤘
@@amandakennedy6348 Thank you
I've been listening to and loving this song for decades now, but watching you react to it made me appreciate it on new levels. So many details I didn't pay attention to. That's one of the things I like the most about your videos. "In a darkened room" is probably my favorite Skid Row song.
Devin Townsend has said that one of the ways he learned to sing like he does is by singing Skid Row songs in the shower.
One of my favs is Still My Bleeding Heart so so good from Devin. Its what made me a fan of his..
So happy you have embraced metal music the way you have. So many people outside the genre just think its loud, screaming or obnoxious music, but there are SIGNIFICANTLY talented musicians and singers all over the genre that are often overlooked simply because of the musical style
22:10 "He's alien" LOOOOL
he is!! 👽
Thats my favorite part till the end vibrato... you can feel the anguish and emotion on bachs high notes.. my eyes teared up
Love love! So glad you did this song. Easily my favorite SR song. Still gives me goosebumps 35 years later. Love the videos. Keep them coming!
Wasted time, in a darkened room, quicksand Jesús. 3 master pieces of skid Row
In a darkened room will just blow you away with what this man can REALLY do.
Another vote for Wasted Time from me, also check out In a Darkened Room
Great reaction! Thoroughly enjoyed your reaction to my one of my all time fave’s of his. 30+ years later and he still gives me goosebumps when I hear him hit those high notes. I knew you’d be amazed when you heard it and was SO looking forward to you doing this reaction video. Thank you! 😊
Hi, crime author here. First off; thanks for being you. I've recently learned that I can sing (my SO introduced me to where my voice is, she had some choir training), and I've been following your channel and learning a lot. Keep doing your thing!
Anyhow, your comment about "why do guys keep guns in their pants??" I can (sorta) explain that. That style of carry is called "Appendix carry" or "Mexican carry". Yes, it's associated with criminals and yes, it's as dangerous a way of carrying a gun as you'd imagine for all the reasons you can think of. And yes, plenty of criminals are admitted to hospitals across the country from self-inflicted gunshot wounds to the...groin area.
Why people do it; mostly its so they can throw guns away if police are chasing them and have no connection to said gun - after all, if the cops don't actually catch you with the gun it isn't your gun. Also, it apparently feels "manly" and "badass" to have a gun shoved down your pants. I don't get that part any more than you do, but apparently it takes all kinds.
Quicksand Jesus or Wasted Time, honestly it's amazing how much they improved from their 1st album to their 2nd album. Most bands don't do that.
I agree with both of these. Wasted Time is the one most people thing if for the big notes, but I think Quicksand Jesus is more interesting vocally
Agreed, and it's sad that he normally doesn't fit these into his live shows anymore. Limited time, etc. I get it, but every so often would be great!
Quicksand Jesus may be one of their best songs
So glad to see so many other people giving love to Quicksand Jesus. I think Wasted Time is probably the best marriage of songwriting to vocal performance, but just isolating Bach's performance alone, Quicksand Jesus might honestly be the better example. It's really damn close.
I need to listen to that album again, like right now. :)
For sure the second album is a masterpiece.
In A Darkened Room is the song you really want to listen to. He explores his entire range, and the emotion in his voice is phenomenal.
It's hard to choose between a couple.. This one hits me in the feels every time.
Love Darkened room
This was my favorite for a long time, but recently i heared "wasted time" and it blew me away...
Perfect voice and beautiful too!! Sebastian was straight up perfection in the 80-90's!
You could say that this song is about stupid mistakes of youth that can ruin your life. Dave Sabo wrote this song originally about his brother Rick that came home from Vietnam a different person but couldn't make the lyrics work so they changed it to be a story about an 18 year old boy who shot his friend by accident. He thought the gun wasn't loaded.
That's interesting. I thought that originally Dave Sabo wrote this song with the lyrics referring to his brother who served in Vietnam, and as he came back home, he was a different person. It was Jon Bon Jovi who gave him advice about making the subject of the song related more to everyone else's experiences, so listeners could find something on which they could relate. Recently I watched an interview with Rachel Bolan who pointed out this.
@@AnnaluisaSocher After further research, you are right, it originally started out originally about Dave's brother that went to Vietnam and came back a different person but they said it didn't work out as they wanted to so they changed the narrative (from an interview on Bravewords website entitled 'Dave "Snake" Sabo tells the true story behind Skid Row Class "18 and Live.) I can't put the link here, UA-cam will delete the comment (updated my comment based on further research)
@metalmark1214 Yes, you're right, it was Dave Sabo's interview, I did remember wrong. Thanks for your reply :)
New Album out too an its great
I’ve always thought Bach was a stunningly technical singer and never got recognition for it. Love to see you analyzing his vocals on this one!!
awsome to see some more skid row! love you work!
you said balls to the walls at 4:49. that wants me to see you analysis ''Accept, Balls to the wall''
WASTED TIME needs to be next … a showcase of Bach’s voice 😮!!
I watch your videos for the sole purpose of seeing someones genuine reaction to such wonderful tunes and vocalists. I cant go back and hear them for the first time but i can watch you and that gets me close enough!
Wasted Time and In a Darkened Room are incredible. A combination of talent and emotion that will leave you stunned.
Please do wasted time next. You will be blown away by the vocals.
Oh man! Seb Bachs vocal on’Wasted time’ will absolutely blow your mind x
Skid Row Monkey Business, is a banger.
underrated song
My favorite song by Skid Row.
Love this song. Monkey Business and Youth Gone Wild are my personal favorites.
You read my mind
It's the groove, and the guitars that make this one kickass, actually. Taking nothing from S.B.
Skid Row's Wasted Time is one of his / Skid Row best. It is mind blowing how amazing it is.
There exists a UA-cam clip of Bas singing one of the songs from Jekyll & Hyde on a street in NYC. He sounds AMAZING on it.
Live performance of a tune outside his normal wheelhouse. Fantastic showcase of a different side of his voice.
One of the great singers from the period. Sebastian was leaps and bounds ahead of his peers. Such a great range with a lot of power.
Please do Skid Row “Wasted Time” next.
Baz is probably one of the best singers at “coloring” his vocal lines, meaning, he uses every technique he has, to paint almost every single word with the emotion he needs to convey the meaning of what he’s singing.
Wasted Time is a masterclass on vocal expression and talent.
In a darkened room, and wasted time will blow you away if you like this.
Yes this is why people give Sebastian Bach so much credit, at this age he was the singer everyone else wish they had.
Sebastian Bach was untouchable in his youth! He still sounds great at 56 and will always be THE voice of Skid Row, imho.
Sounds good with a studio behind him, hasn't been good live for years
@@thrashandanarchyhe had lots of great live performances
Isn't Lzzy Hale the latest artist to try?
@@DrRyan81 I'm clearly hearing different things than you, because I haven't heard anything decent live for the last decade, and many of his contemporaries sound excellent
@@thrashandanarchy listen to his lives in 2011 then or Sweden rock 2012
When you listen to his speaking voice, even today, he is very unique. He has always been a little all over the place but that's also part of what makes things so wild when he sings and absolutely goes for it.
Wasted Time, Quicksand Jesus and In a Darkened Room. All amazing! I was 17 when this song came out and I was blown away by this beautiful man with this mesmerizing voice. I still listen to Sebastian. The album he just put out is great.
“Child blew a child away” I was waiting to see your face when he hit that
Diphthong!
Imagine being a recording engineer in the room watching this vocal performance happen.
The song Wasted Time will blow your mind
His voice is amazing and I’m so glad you covered it ❤❤❤
I would have heard that songs thousands of times and "That child blew a child away" still gives me goosebumps every time.
That child blew a child away lyric has always given me chills. His voice, wow. You are the best person to dissect this masterpiece. Came out when I was almost 18 and has always been one of my favorites! Thank you for spending time on this. You are magnificent at what you do 🥰 Your reaction was priceless.
It took me 30 years to realize that's was the line. But man is it powerful.
Dear Elizabeth, would be nice a Tea Time Interview with Sebastian Bach. He is an icon who knows everything about rock history and singing.
Watching you listening to some of my favorite music for the first time makes me relive listening to it for the first time again. I can’t thank you enough for that.
Youth Gone Wild & Slave to the Grind were the two other singles that got me into Skid Row along with 18 & Life, so there is always a soft spot for me there! Seeing him perform at a small club a couple years ago he still sounds killer live.
Youth gone wild is another one you need to do. Catchy chorus
She may not pick it next, but when she does, it will likely be her favorite.
I think wasted time is Sebastian's vocal pinnacle
Wasted Time is a must. Besides Sebastian's literally unbelievable range, this video shows his talent in relaying emotion. This is not just a song. It is a personal plea to a friend who has been deafened by falling into the black hole of heroin addiction. I don't think there is a more perfect example of the whirlwind of emotions experienced by those who have watched someone they love killing themselves and not being able to reach them. He sings from the depths of his soul and his pain is palpable. It is soul crushing and will leave you speechless. In my opinion, it is a masterpiece.
Thumbs Up for the song Monkey Business. Elizabeth needs to hear it.
Agreed. Monkey Business is one of their best!
I'm here for it
Following this up with Warrant's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" would be awesome. Though I usually prefer live videos, I'd strongly suggest the official video - the imagery helps to tell the story and define the emotions in the song.
Or blind faith
Uncle Tom’s Cabin is a great song, regardless of genre. I Saw Red as well. Unusual phrasing and a great melody. Jani Lane was a talented writer.
Agreeeeeeed. One of my karaoke jams. Warrant was so much more than cherry pie.
I genuinely love seeing your work for the memories it brings from my school days. I always so admired my voice student friends who worked so hard and were so dedicated to making it happen every time. You could tell how much they put in and they didn't have some random instrument to help out, it was just them.
You've gotta do "Wasted Time" next, Elizabeth! Truly phenomenal!
His brand new song "Hold On (To The Dream) is phenomenal. Really worth a listen to see how great his voice still is.
I've heard some live stuff, and he did not sound great, they can do a lot with autotune today. I don't trust it.
@@jeremiahrose4681 Actually, you can't trust mobile phone sound.
I've recorded gigs on my phone that sounded great live, sounded great on soundboard and yet sounded horrible on the video I recorded. Phones have specific types of mics that emphasize certain sounds and cannot capture dynamic range.
Truly one of the greatest voices to grace this planet. For more Skid Row, "Wasted Time" is one of their very best, or "In A Darkened Room"
Just to reiterate what others are saying, Wasted Time is far and away one of the best vocal performances of all time. The range on display in that song will dazzle you, and the song will leave you breathless. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 rock on.
Such an underrated vocalist! Sebastian is one of the best rock vocalists EVER, and he just doesn't get the recognition he deserves.
Wasted time and in a darkened room are both stunning. Skid row has always been a favorite of mine. My daughter absolutely LOVES their 2nd album.
Never been big on Skid Row, but MAN that guy has some pipes. "18 And Life" is an excellent song.
So...What are you big on?
@@johnnyandersson5622 From that era-ish... Sabbath with Dio, Maiden, Priest, OG Metallica, Mercyful Fate/King Diamond, Slayer, Morbid Angel, Napalm Death, etc. Also Enya.
Beautiful analysis! I've been listening to these guys since their debut in the 80s, and you helped me love this song even more. So glad you got to Sebastian! 2 more metal vocalists with unbelievable expression and control from this era that I don't believe you've analyzed yet are Jack Russell from Great White and Midnight from Crimson Glory. For Great White, "House of Broken Love" is an incredible display of what Jack Russell can do. For Crimson Glory-too many choices, but you can't go wrong with "In Dark Places" for unreal vocal acrobatics.
Listening to him for over 30 years now, still not fed up...he is awesome.
Anyone else remember 'Gilmore Girls' whenever they see Sebastian Bach? Lol he was like one of the best characters
React to "In a darkned Room" Best vocals ever!!!
I agree - there's something about his vocals in 'In a Darkened Room' that's stood out a bit more to me than in all the other songs on The Slave to the Grind and Skid Row albums since they came out
Absolutely one their best tracks
This is the song that'll blow her mind. I already thought Sebastian Bach was a top notch singer after listening to their first album, but when I've listened "In a Darkened Room" for the first time...man, the chills were real
And beautiful guitars.
I have seen them live in concert and yeah true talent!
These are some of the most genuine reactions to great songs I've seen anywhere online. I love watching these videos. Elizabeth, the nuanced metaphors and phrases you use perfectly describe the changes in tone and pitch, and how the singer achieves them. Like, the cupcake sprinkles metaphor - it's so silly, but it explains it PERFECTLY! Keep 'em coming! :D
You should totally interview Sebastian Bach. I’m sure he’d be up for it (I mean don’t want to speak for him, but he’s a cool guy). I’ve seen podcasts with Dave “snake” from Skid row. It was great.
Please react to Wasted Time. I've been waiting for years
I cannot wait for you to examine Wasted Time. Its a master class. ❤
Three plus decades and I still get goosebumps from that voice. One of the most iconic talents of the 90’s, period.
Impatiently waited all week for this one since your heads up comment & it didn't disappoint 😁Thanks for doing more Skid Row, please please please make Wasted Time the next song by them 🙏
as for your comments about his future, while I personally consider him one of the greatest singers I've ever heard, age wasn't kind to his voice & his career became more obsession with what he lost when kicked out of Skid Row, but fortunately we got 2 great albums & plenty more music videos to review of them 🤣(in no particular order) Monkey Business, Quicksand Jesus, Slave to the Grind, Youth Gone Wild 🤟
Sebastian Bach was called the "pretty boy with the golden voice". I never really liked hair bands or metal very much but I really liked a lot of Skid Row because of Sebastian Bach's voice. He said in an interview that his vocal style is an old Italian style called bel canto and it was taught to him by a man named Don Lawrence.
Brian Vollmer (Helix) has credited that learning bel canto theory saved his voice. He teaches that theory. Would be another great Tea Time as well.
Youth Gone Wild, Wasted Time, and Monkey Business are the other major hits from Sebastian's time in the band. They're all great and definitely worth a listen.
That moment at "that child blew a child away" gives me that similar feeling in my throat, plus my spine. He punches that phrase right through you.
I've seen your last 2 reactions. They were great as usual. "Wasted time" would hit the trifecta.
FOR SURE
