Hey guys welcome back again to Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy, where the proof is
in the singing. I got a lot of requests for this one
it's Tool and the song is called "Sober". I chose the live version and let's just go
ahead and do it and we'll talk about it as we go.
Here we go.
Right up front that lick, even though it's not the same, reminds me of (sounds)
by the Eagles "Once You Started Wearing Those Shoes". It's got a very
similar feel to it, so listen that song "Once You Started Wearing Those Shoes" and
then you'll hear the similarity. Here we go.
Now those guitar chords and the drums right now as it's working and I know this
song is different but it has a lot of Led Zeppelin in it man (sounds) you know
it's got kind of a psychedelic Zeppelin vibe going on here.
You hear it? Almost Kashimir..kinda.
He's using a lot of clean nice clear vocals but he's using a lot of nasality
(sings) you know I'd love to have him get some of that sound out
of the nose but anyway nice crystal clear sound.
Good powerful vocals
I wonder if it hurts if you sit over like that the whole time in the song
if you got, at the end of the night you're like going (sounds), cracking your back going (sounds)
oh man I gotta stop leaning over like that.
He's luckily.. he looks like he's deliberately deliberately trying to be a
little spastic, you know like he's kind of.. that's his mystery, you know what I mean as a front
man.
You know um this song is called "Sober" but he looks like he's on something to me.
I don't know but anyway it's a really cool tune, there is a Zeppelin vibe,
there's also you know almost like a couple Audioslave, you know sort of
influences there too, if you really listen to it, the way the guitar is
working with the drums and stuff, so that's kind of interesting.
I appreciate that
See he looks kind of creepy like he's on something, he's like really (sings) you know what I mean,
Take a close look at his face.
Definitely under the influence of something.
Those lyrics are kind of interesting, we
just came off of doing "Creep" and the vibe of it or the lyrical vibe is very
very similar to that in this song here.
Well I gotta say he is all-in on the song, his passion, just you know him
believing what he's singing, him just really putting it out there. He's
literally in the zone of going through the lyrics, everything that he's singing,
he's living through it in a very dramatic kind of way and almost a kind
of creepy way. He's very yeah just.. under the influence is the best way to
say it
Yeah there's definitely a heavy thick spirit there and he was definitely
living through some darkness, singing through some darkness so kind of a
creepy tune to be honest but anyway the band was tight, like I said there's a
lot of grunge influence in there, like I said you did hear some Audioslave
and it has a Led Zeppelin vibe to it, very powerful, clean vocals. Very strong
and he was definitely very mesmerizing to watch there's no doubt about that. So
anyway thank you guys again Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy where the proof is
in the singing and until next time peace out.
