Chris I still get chills every time I hear "End a Memory" towards the end how it's off pitch and then WOW
Chris, I know I e been bugging the hell out of you to do a video on Sebastian. I wasn't even sure you knew who he was. I just can't thank you enough. I'd love to hear you do a cover of this entire song. Impressive analysis. Truly. And thank you!!!
I really hope you'll spend some more time on Sebastian. One of the finest rock vocalist ever.
Hope some of these reaction channels check out more of his non- ballad songs. Skid Rows best songs are their heavier ones
@@backstabbath2690 absolutely agree
Bach is back btw, his new release track was on FM today Legends never die 😊👍✍️ gr8 vid, thx Chris
He definitely deserves a seat at the table.
This is one of the best vocal performances ever... Always gave me chills and still does.
Absolutely adored this analysis. Those pipes are a gift from the heavens to the rest of us mere mortals. As a singer Sebastian's vocals have always been my guiding star, and equally as unreachable!
Sebastian Bach is quite possibly the best rock singer of all time. He obviously was born with a great voice, but I have some friends who went to the same vocal teacher in NY years ago, so I know he did the work to build up his voice. Also, as Chris points out here, the personality/character in his voice is key.
Sebastian was awesome! What you need to understand that he was only 20 years old when Skid Row came out. A 20 year old with a voice that had so much range and grit! He out sang so many of the singers of the time who older and more experienced than him! One of the best voices of the 80's!
yes correct observation.
I have listened to many reactors and what I like about you is not just the commentary but you use examples by showing us. Outstanding!!!
After hearing your dissection of his voice, I am convinced that Sebastian was just blessed by God, with his effortless ability to blow the roof off & sound soooo freakin' sexy!! And he 's still got it!! I will see him May 14th...Oh, my soul...I hope I can keep my composure!! 🥰
I've got Meet/Greet in June! I will regress to being 16 again instantaneously... 😍🤘
I discovered this song decades ago ... and every time I listen to it I get a lot of feelings like it was the first time. Such an amazing vocalist OMG
Chris, one of the most important concepts I've learned with you is the variance that can be explored with 'placement'. I've always heard about the concept, but never really understood it. Thanks for that! As for Sebastian, what can I say - legendary voice - so nice to see that new generations are coming across this songs and still being blown away by the intensity of it.
As a drummer, I enjoy these videos for a multitude of reasons. For one, it's really great to see breakdowns like this because it's easy to just listen without ACTIVELY listening and not realize all of the nuance. And this is a great way to dive deep and get a better respect for what's going on. But also, it helps me take this mindful listening and understanding approach and use it when listening to and understanding drummers and their choices of phrasing and everything else. Thank you!
Sebastian has been one of my favorite singers ever since i was a kid. Slave to the grind, as an album ,is one of the best performances in rock music history
Sebastian is a god-like singer, and I have to say your tutorial and analysis is spot on. Ken tamplin try to take on a Sebastian Bach vocal but he just sounded like Ken Tamplin and gave really weak techniques that doesn't come close to your information.
I think it's because Ken tamplin really 'anti' reinforce falsetto technique that Sebastian usually use.and of course Ken more of a DIO side when it come to his distortion rather than 80's singing style in his word 'pinching and squezzing' distortion.in my humble opinion.
@@ilmizarnanda
Ken is nothing like dio. He isn’t that good of a singer. Ken is very forced and doesn’t sound good
Agreed. Chris's analyses are fucking amazing. He dissects all the emotion from the sounds and tells us how it happened.
I've always heard the band name Skid Row in passing and never really listened to them up until just last year. I was at work and their song I Remember You came on the radio and when he hits that insane note at the end of the song right away I was like who is this singer. So I did my research and found out it was Sebastian Bach and wanted to hear what else Skid Row had to offer then I came across their album Slave To The Grind and I was hooked. Monkey Business, Quicksand Jesus, In A Darkened Room & Wasted Time such good tunes! \m/
My goodness. Your voice is amazing too!
He's the most underrated singer what he can do with his voice is amazing and phenomenal.
Him and Miljenko Matijevic
Vivid memory and pleasure of seeing Sebastian Bach live while his run with playing Jesus in the Jesus Christ Superstar musical back in the early 2000's and for the lack of a better term..... Holy Jesus he blew everyone away with his performance. Thank you Chris for posting this!!!! Rock on everyone 🤘
Sebastian is one of the guys I've emulated for years. Both for distortion and powerful Head voice. Later, I ended up using his techniques to sing along with Chris Cornell. 🤷🏽♂️😁
Me too, actually. That's wild!
Same, but they both have notes I cannot reach
@@dedfishermen985 YET! 👍🏽💪🏽
Monster vocalist, great song, and YES highly underrated in today’s world. I also recommend from this album In a Darkened Room and Quicksand Jesus. The whole record is top notch world class vocal performance at its best! Thanks for the awesome video and stroll down memory lane
Not too old buddy right there with you. Was fortunate to see
Skid Row live when they opened for Pantera and Bach was simply incredible.
I knew this would be good, Sebastian is one of the best vocalists I've ever heard. I was lucky enough to see them live right after the second album came out. He sounded even better live.
I've been waiting for this video since I discovered your channel years ago... Thank you so much, Chris!
Great video bringing out mixed voice and so much more as always.
I've been waiting for this one.... Thank you Chris!!!!🙏🙏🙏
"I remember you" got my attention, but "Wasted time" made me an absolute fan of Skid Row and Sebastian Bach. All "Slave to the grind" songs are masterpieces.
Sebastian still sing very well, but in 90s his voice were a force of the nature.
Great singer, great band, great album, but The subhuman race album is very experimental vocally, he's all over the place using every part of his range and pushes the limits and a master class. Very underrated singer.
Great job Chris
Absolutely love this song. Brought me right back to the first time hearing it when it was released. Thank you.
He was a beast in those years, I made some Skid Row covers and it's very hard to emulate those screams, great vocal analysis Chris🎵😃
A new appreciation for his voice. Tremendous variety of tones. Tons of peaks and valleys dynamically. Thanks!
nice, best analyse , thanks and congratulation
I've just joined your channel because of this reaction. I think that Sebastian Bach can "play" at different levels with his voice; he is able to transmit his emotions by the way he sings every single word...
My favorite song is 18 and Life from this band.
The best. He still kills it. His audio book is also super entertaining.
Yessss I love Sebastian and this song!!! More vocal analysis please, Chris!!!!🤘🏽
Amazing analysis and super useful tips to reflect upon. I always always loved Sebastian and personally never ever underrated him, but for those who do, your video is extremely educational ❤
I was fortunate enough to see skid row in concert and he would have the crowd in aww just belting out a single note, not even during one of the songs. I have always said he has one of the most incredible voices I have ever experienced.
Awesome stuff Chris, hope you are well 😊
Che grande cantante!
Chris Cornell and Sebastian Bach are for me the best rock singers of all time. so much power in their voices.
Omg I can't thank you enough tfor doing this. The song that killed my throat for a few days some years ago. Whohoo! ❤
Thank you Chris 😊
This was such a great analysis of his vocal ability. I especially loved how you compared it back to his speaking voice, which he has been mocked for quite a bit due to its sort of nasal and cartoonish character. But now we know how it lends itself to his singing voice. He’s truly an icon and my favorite male vocalist ever.
one thing ive learned today is that I need to build a sound proof singing booth in my closet so I can practice making all these sounds so someone doesnt try to check me in to a mental ward.
I just go for a drive and scream at the landscape
@@QuickSticks8771 “screaming at landscapes.” Band name.
Cool! Sebastian Bach!! Great vidéo!
Nice one Chris! Awesome to see some well deserved praise for Sebastian 😁 Another band you might find interesting is Fair to Midland. I'm pretty sure you'll be blown away by their first record Fables from a Mayfly. The vocals are exceptional. Keep up the great work Chris!
Bach combines elements of Halford and Steve Perry in his vocal style. Maybe even a little Freddie. Skid Row songs are all written by Snake and Rachel but so much of their success is related to Sebastians interpretation.
Sebastian actually wrote the lyrics to Wasted Time 😊
Best song they ever did, one the most memorable sebastian songs of all times♥️
He must have taken many days to record these vocals in the studio. I never saw a live video where he sang this song not even close to this studio version.
Listen to Sweden 91 version he sounds great there
they have rehearsal here on youtube where he sings all songs from the first and sophomore albums like in the studio
@@thinkingdinosuar1929 fr dude. Plus there weren’t autotune or that much fakery back then
Wow…about time you looked at this voice Chris!! Lol….thanks man.
such passion for singing (talking about chris)
I am amazed by the technical proficiency. But what I love most is that it sounds like the feeling he is trying to convey. It sounds desperate and exhasted. It sounds like someone fighting to make it.
I've been waiting for this as patiently as I can!!
Excellent video!!!
Kind of a weird thing for a man to say to another man,😂.... But I love the way you listen!!!
Nah there’s weirder things to say to another man !!🤣
Great insight! I agree, fantastic voice and hugely under rated today, can't think of any current vocalists that are anywhere near Seb :)
I was into the first 2 SR albums and saw them with Pantera touring for this album and Pantera was doing the Cowboys album Bach has one of those voices I put up there with Rob Halford and King Diamond for range and sheer power I haven't heard him lately but back then he had one of the strongest voices of that era 🧐🤘✌️
Baz is amazing. as a singer, as a frontman and as a person. great dude! excelent analysis. i think he will finally be back to skid row
How much must the rest of the group hate Sabastian to play casinos and county fairs for the past 25+ years rather than reunite with him. Such an incredible and passionate rock voice.
I think that tells you show much of an arsehole they think he is. Shame.
Sebastian Bach is such a creative vocalist, so much to learn from his work!
Chris, I'd love to see an analysis of WASP's song Blind In Texas, I feel like Blackie Lawless' vocal work doesn't get enough recognition and I know you'd have a ton to say about it 😁
I would love that, too! Blackie Lawless is one of my childhood heroes 🥰
Baz is my forever favorite vocalist ❤ Will be seeing him in June and I can't wait! 🤘🎶
This was very nice 😅❤
Michael Kisske. When? 😊
Agreed... Love to see a breakdown of him... stellar vocalist
Yea
Helloween !!!!!!!!
love it ! man he was a beast - so much emotion, skill and control. i miss that combo of pop and rock, it was a special time for me in music. that part at 17:00 is the best demonstration of how to start in head voice and turn it into pure rage i have ever heard. also 18:27 sounds like a lick in the Lights solo by journey.
The funny thing is, you're doing all of this intense analysis of every single thing he's doing - "Ooo, this compression, that rasp, that clean," etc. And I _guarantee_ you Sebastian wasn't thinking about ANY of that stuff when he wrote/recorded it. He was feeling the _emotion_ of the lyrics. Letting his voice deliver his feelings. That's it. THAT'S what made him so good. He _felt_ what he sang. He didn't analyze it. He just lived it.
Oh yeah. This album/song made me wanna be a singer when I was a kid. Sebastian Bach was just outta this world. And this lyrics. And the looks. Holy fck.
Anyway, I would really like to know your opinion about how this style of singing destroyed his voice in a few years.
This song is a vocal masterpiece.
I'm 44, but as soon as I started driving I would listen to this song in the car and sing it over and over and over, trying to emulate every single part. I got pretty good at it for a while.🤣 It gives really good endorphins!
The best sebastian bach vocal🤘love this song
2024 Reunion , LET'S GO!!!!! Mother Truckers
Oh yes!!! ❤❤❤❤
His vocals back then were just amazing.
Hola soy de argentina tengo 49 años y crecí con gente como Sebastián. Es el más grande en su estilo no entiendo cómo hay gente que no lo conoce saludos desde Buenos Aires
Also the fact that he wrote this for his friend Steven Adler and the amount of feeling he put into these vocals are amazing.
Chills and memories of singing in my room at 12
I love this song!! Ps, there’s a new Ado Usseewa live performance that you have to check out as well!!
He has emotion hardcore
I have a feeling that Sebastian didn't know all this theory, was just singing with his natural talent.
Yes!!!
Played your video in my office at home. My wife heard your screams and thought I was in danger. ^^ Thanks for your video anyway. Love Skid Row and Sebastian. ;)
hehe :) should have a "use headphones" warning on most of my videos :)
@@chrisliepe Will do next time... was partly a joke. Love your videos. Keep on rockin' ^^
I ❤ this song ❤🤘🔥He's 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 still is.
I am very much enjoying your analyses. I would be very interested to hear analysis of Dimash Qudaibergen’s SOS or Ikenaide, or any of his performances since they are all excellent.
In a darkened room has an insane scream so much variance and sustain. You should do a video on Eric Martin!
Sebastian in my opinion was not only the best vocalist of the genre, he was one of the best performers and
personalities
I can't believe it... I discovered this song yesterday and got completely hooked on the last part... And Chris makes a video about it! Magic
I already knew the song but yesterday I looked for reaction videos to it. I watched 4 videos 😅too funny.
I discovered this song when the album was released and still...that ending. 😮
Actually every song on those albums.
Another vocal acrobat.
Don lawrence the vocal coach helped him with placement but he already had singing in his background from his childhood.
As you said his speaking voice in and of itself contains elements.
His ability to compress and fry on high notes amazing.
That operatic at times projection and vibrato
If you also want to study someone who used their body and hand movements while singing.
I think that the album slave to the grind is a gem of talent and vocal power that should be in the top 5 of the best. Sebastian in an illuminated and his voice unbeatable, the past years and perhaps his records are no longer at the level of his youth but he still continues to shine.
I got to see Skid Row open for Bon Jovi in 1990 (I was 18). They were so good that Jon Bon Jovi replaced them because the crowds were there for Skid Row. We weren't there for Bon Jovi either. Then in 1992 Ozzy No More Tears tour came to town and Skid Row opened for him, again Skid Row killed it. Wasted Time , Quicksand Jesus and In A Darkened Room also killed. Pour Ozzy vocals had no chance.
Hello! I've recently discovered your channel from your vocal analysis videos such as these and I would love to put a song in the sea of recommendations you get to analyze! The song's name is "Cure" from ALIEN STAGE ROUND 6 and it's a very new song, only 4 days ago i believe. The song is korean, but it still made me cry even though I couldn't understand the lyrics! I think you'd have a fun time listening to the emotion in the two singer's voices. And the music video is something else too, haha. Please consider it, thank you so much! Have a good one!
Sebastian Bach and Miljenko Matijevic are my top 2 vocalist. “I’ll never let you go” by steel heart with Miljenko Matijevic is a very good vocal work.
his singing was so powerful that he can't even sing it years forward
by far my goat
I really wish you'd allow me to book a private session with you, Chris. I'm 50 years old and been singing my whole life, journeying from developing a horrible case of choralitis in high school, emulating my favorite singers (everyone from Bach and Axl Rose to Layne Staley and Mike Patton), damaging my throat doing harsh vocals wrong, then finally learning how to do it right, etc.
I know the fundamentals. But now I have a big, big problem, and I need someone to help me navigate it. I was just diagnosed with Barrett's Esophagus (thankfully no nodes were found on my vocal cords, though that would have been easier, because they would have just removed them) and I'm clueless as to how to continue singing healthily while navigating this, because things I could do with my voice unconsciously 10 years ago no longer work the same way, and I don't want to do more damage to my cords adapting on my own.
You CAN absolutely book a private lesson with me :) !! Just gotta know where to look! I've been told I'm a candidate for Barretts's Esophagus if I don't keep my reflux under control so I am extremely disciplined and mindful of how I treat my stomach, sleep positions, diet, exercise, vocal tract etc... Let's do a private lesson! Follow this link and enroll in "ULTIMATE" and it includes your first private lesson as well as 4 essential courses that will help you with your vocal therapy IMMENSELY. One of the worst things you can do for your voice at this point is lean into the fact that you "know the fundamentals" and revisit what may be the most seemingly basic techniques, mindsets and postures. Go through the first 3 weeks of the course you get and do everything with a fresh outlook that you are rebuilding your voice! And, then, let's start doing private lessons! LINK:

Would love to hear your interpretation of Steve Lee the Lead Singer of a band called Gotthard, songs like Need To Believe, Let It Be, I Wonder, The Oscar Goes to You, What I Like, just to name a few. Steve Lee passed away in an accident just over 10 years ago but his voice was special just an incredible rock voice he has the kind of voice you can never get to much of.
Loved this video you know your stuff and offer excellent insight into vocal techniques.
Not many people know that Sebastian Bach was professionally trained at Juilliard
He and Geoff tate were grossly underrated vocalists in thier genres of music!
You should check out one of his latest singles and see how his voice has held up/changed.
Love this bald vocal coach. He's hella entertaining to watch!
Bro is 80's Ado
Jk i grew up listening to this guy, never ceased to amaze me
Chris Liepe's voice when screaming sounds exactly like Steve Terreberry
Quicksand Jesus is a masterpiece of placement and projection. Check it Jeeves.
You played a short video of Sebastian Bach from the early 90s. I’ve seen more recent interviews and his speaking voice seems to have changed to a more consistent nasal tone. Do you think that there’s a risk singing like he does?
Could be... could also be just age and the weathering associated with it :)
Sebastian sounded amazing on this record.
Should check out Quicksand Jesus.
😎💕
