Roth's voice has always been shaky, but despite that I do marginally prefer Electric Sun to Scorpions. Sure his work with Scorpions is the stuff of legend and for good reason, but the more intricate compositions of Electric Sun intrigue me more. Plus it's when Uli developed more completely his signature style of classically influenced, occasionally technical, yet still soulful lead guitar.
@santanaincubus is not really that he made it hard for him, is what he wanted to do, you see a man like ULI , he was never about the money ,the fame is what he wanted to do, he was never a sellout!
I know if he had gotten a great singer it would've had a different outcome but , to me he sounds like Bob Dylan ,never really liked his voice but he was & still a genius!
it was the message,ofcourse ULI is all about what he does with his guitar, that's his singing!! but I get your point too!
You have to be shitting me!? He is TERRIBLE!!! My DOG can sing better than that. The guitar is the only good thing about the song. Take that out and you've got nothing.
I think he was being sarcastic about taking the guitar out,in any case, Bob Dylan made it & Uli sure reminds of him!
I must agree that Uli could've done a lot better with a great singer in his band,but he wanted to keep it a trio just like Hendrix but Hendrix had a better voice!
why does a musician like him not see that he destroys this song with such an awful kind of singing? I know this song for almost 25 years and my impression remains: he ruined his career by singing like this!!!!!
I think the singing is awesome! it works in this song! and more epic solo you'll have to look hard for

Okay Uli hasn't the greatest singing voice in the world but that's not the point really.
That there's sense in your life everday
That there's something that will always be there
That there's no end of day....
I think this is the point.

He should have hired a vocalist for Electric Sun instead of making it hard for him to sing and play at the same time.

If he would sing just like he sang on the first album then the second one would be great as well.
