CRAZY JOHN PETRUCCI (on Vocal:The Spirit Carries On)

[MrBilgets]

Victorias Reel LOL

[deggs37]

This is the best thing I've ever heard

[veroSonica]

hey at 2:13 it´s John´s voice, with no doubt, so....

the entire track become absolutely hilarious ^^

[StAtUsSeeker92]

0:52 John is like "Who the fuck are you?" and laughes.

[gretschplaya]

:56 JP Death Stare. That mime later was decapitated by JP's henchmen.

[Nevermorian]

THIS made my day.

[akhilgupta86]

He sounds a bit like Roger waters, but only in the beginning :)

[randompinc7]

"luckily those vocals WONT carry on" lol Mike Portnoy is a legend! :D and so is JP... just not on vocals... obviously :P

[Joselo1693]

it sounds bad because it's on slow motion.... Actually petrucci was singing in 5000 bpm but you can't listen at that speed because people just die...

[DelDuio]

Hahaha, this only makes Petrucci rule more than ever!

[dtrox84]

the dog bark at the end was the best ending to that lol

[vortexcito]

@dtrox84 that was mike's dog: Bongo

[wallytalivan]

lol at 0:52, nah im lying, i loled at the whole song and 2:15 i almost fell of my chair

[lhc89]

You can tell they like to muck around in the studio lol, I'm pretty sure thats how I would have reacted if I tried singing that part. Man looking at Petrucci's photos as a kid, little did he know that he would have a lot going for him, I mean A LOT.

[rudess84]

ahahahah

[texasrangersfan1]

hahahahahahahahha!!!!!!! this made me laugh!!!

[kazetehskylord]

Can't take himself seriously!

[mulanovich]

ROFL

[jbnaruto93]

[blargyblargster]

@jbnaruto93 Did you not hear Mike and James talking at the end of the video?

[apollominor]

at the start he was ok...ill give him that.

[LostChicken96]

LOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!

[samuel2622]

He sings like a retarded jerk stuck in a trap.

[poopyfaceification]

[naughtydog1376]

[LampusGilak]

Meglio che rimane a suonare la chitarra XDXDXDXDXD

Fantastico XD

[jeffrudess]

How Portnoy says: Horrible! Absolutely horrible! Absolutely terrible! lol

[stratomatius]

John como Vocalista es uno de los mejores Guitarristas del mundo

jajajaja

[2182248]

And somewhere out in the outer reaches of the universe a star was extinguished. Heard this loads of times and I still laugh out loud every time. I am particularly pleased because I cannot hope to get anywhere near Johns ability with a guitar but I can at least say I am no worse at him when it comes to singing lead.

[LoneFloyd]

lol ! Wow John ! Best on guitar

[chaveznieves]

this is hilarious. petrucci you're still a GOD

[leitegabriel]

sounds like those death metal singers when they sing sing cleanly, horrible!

But he is the guitar god, not vocals god.. That would be Robert Plant

[Zotya015]

"Hopefuly the vocals won't carry on" XD LOL the biggest :D

[CMetalTube]

I believe my spirit just left my body when I heard this... So I guess it won't carry on.

[alastorskye]

lold hahaah

[Radwalls]

These picture are hilarious

[japeto1]

This just makes you realy appreciate james a lot more, i mean a lot more ! ;)

[maayan13]

i think petrucci often get drunk or high

he can sing a lot better than this!

but this sure was very funny! XD

[WORLDWaR358]

Sounds abit like rodger waters......terrible

[heisann93]

lol, he can sing better than this, but he has a really deep voice. His falsetto is a little bit... uncontrolled?

[undeadtheory]

well hes a pretty good backing singer, because he usually doesnt sing high like labrie.

[DonKupalesco]

damn... is that a mirracle that his backing vocals live sound much better :D?

[TheUnamenable]

horrible absolutley horrible hahaha portnoy... petrucci is awsome...

[nightwatchman]

Its sounds bad to human ears, but in the scope of the universe, it is the voice of God.

[ryujisan]

@nightwatchman OMP (Oh My Petrucci) you are right!

[puusycat]

@ryujisan "OMP"....hahahahaha...can't stop laughing man...!!! good one..!!

[huypp]

Omg... I thought that was my voice at first XD Admirable.

[IcoTheBest]

John, John... On guitar you are a god... But you suck at vocals xD

[thalyon22]

la canta come la canto iooo!!!

[MARTINPcFASTER]

1:46 jajajajaja so nasty. xD

[stuckm4an]

uhauhauhuahua petrucci sei dio! suona la chitarra come pochi, non è che poteva cantare anche tipo freddie mercury!MOSTROOOO AUHAUHAUHUAHUAHUHA

[fastfingers12]

[marziofiore]

OMFG....orrible,absolutely orrible,terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!AH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[vtinho01]

at least he does back'in vocals

[RockRulez124]

Well he does sing well on The Silent Man...but it's horrible here o-o

[RockRulez124]

Very funny, you another random LaBrie hater in the huge Youtube community. If you actually like this band, you'd listen to their songs and enjoy them just like me. If you don't, well, I guess LaBrie is not your only problem here.

[fuckerdarko]

nawebonaa de feo cantas won suicidate

[NanoOnTheBass]

Viste como toca la guitarra?

...Weon?

[bartholomeus21]

[DilanieD]

[Zusik12900]

[CharlesRoss2007]

Kind of sounds like roger waters sometimes.

[lhc89]

hahaha i have this bootleg, and it's fucking hilarious to hear this everytime, but how did the uploader manage to get hold of petrucci's childhood pics?

[ybbuch08]

there's a dog barking...

lol

[japeto1]

Fucking funny as hell LOL ! good video:)

[EpicRec0rds09]

this is not Petrucci singing! He's got a different timbre in his voice and a little deeper aswell...

[Marklar3]

its him, you can tell since he has trouble with high nots and Mike's voice at the end criticizing him

[pipe1192]

jajajaja idolo este wn

[FULVIO82]

si si si si si si questo si chiama lusso!!!!

[Spamdez]

Fail.

What the fuck are you laughing at?

[TheDocA99]

Bless his cotton socks =D

[Laaauri]

lol, atleast better than me

[TheOllieB]

Omg Hahaha I TOTALLY SYMPATHIZE W/ PETRUCCI! It's the EXACT SAME with me haha. Us instrumentalists are that for a reason. 'Cept for Vai can "magically" sing...

[BrokenWingman]

Fuckin' steve Vai... lol

[rolhebrios]

As a vocalist he's a great Guitar Player xD

[tulanderio]

fucking dog...hahaha hilarious.....LoL

PD: fuck James..xD

[Vicgito]

All his talent is concentrated on guitar... and that is good.

[Niyahmetal]

Lo mejor es el perro por detrás...xD

[craybabys]

I think that is john petrucci,,beacuse in the end again i think that is voise of mike portnoy!!!!

[1Kresek1]

Now, Labrie should play solo part:P

[ScharlaThanh]

Is that really John Petrucci who sings?!? Or is it you?! I really wonder hehe. Where do you got it?

[defenderofgaia]

the poor boy can't sing

ooh steve morse

[bacchetta1234]

hahaha

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

Petrucci is a freaking master. My favorite guitar player. And that's all I can say, because there will always be people that disagree, but you cannot deny that he is a monster talent, musician, and songwriter. Most people say he's all speed, but he has an incredible amount of feel in his playing, and a genuine passion for music.

[alejoriggi]

john petrucci agrees that he is a rock without feeling, but still being one of the best guitar player on face of earth!!

[Barkychan]

ROFL

[GodAmongsMen]

ok, it's 100% sure that the voice talking in the end is mike portnoy. bongo is mike's dog and john petrucci has got 3 kids. the boy with his music man is his son, don't ask bout the name, it's listed in every DT's Album since he got him.:-)

[JaysinPeltier]

Jimi Hendrix was never one of the best guitarists.

He was more of an influential guitarist.

these days there are 13 year olds who can play guitar a LOT more technically than he could've.

[Rockonforever88]

He was considered great, because if you listen to his music, he was WAY ahead of his time, the style of music he played was very outstanding from anything else at the time.

[Rockonforever88]

*tear* so beautiful...

[brandy1011]

"Hopefully the vocals won't carry on!"

LOOOOOOOL xD xD

[gippuz]

che carinooo!

[BrokenWingman]

lol he's laughing when he gets to the falsetto section! That's amazing. haha

[charlesneedham]

The benefit of being that godly at guitar is nobody cares if you sing like that.

[dimmuuuu]

What's up with the dogs barking? xD

[AlienProgBass]

the spirit carries on bongo !

[splintar]

this can't be petrucci!

[AtOdinsCall]

It is. It's on "Making of Scenes of a Memory" album (It's for sale on Portnoy's Ytse Jam website).

[SuperTrey09]

yeah i recognize portnoy's voice saying "absolutely terrible" lol

[daleweckl]

sorry, who did sing? is john petrucci or you?

grande john!!!!il mio idolo!!!!

[Thedanceofeternity2]

XD....XD....lol

[scullyy]

"spirit carries ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN­NNNN!"

[wolfisloose]

ahah the falsetto part

[ChromeXk]

Its quite impressive how one of the greatest players in the world can be so completely tone deaf :D

[ChromeXk]

yeah he is

[spkenn5]

you damn right he is!

[Zidnea]

no, hes not, maybe top 10, but thats not good enough :) hate me

[ChromeXk]

The man tours with two of the best guitarists on the planet (satch and vai) and is never upstaged. Which is impressive enough, even more so when you consider john isnt a solo artist and that he plays within the confines of a band. Out of wonder who would you rate the best?

[Zidnea]

yes ok ur pretty much right about that..

Jimi Hendrix

Al Di Meola

Steve Vai

I would rate one of those the best:) What about you? Petrucci? lol

Respekt mate

[Guitarman187]

ah..i see we have someone jealous of the skill of John Petrucci!

[sambahista]

he is not tone deaf, he just cant hit high notes like LaBrie, and he's also tripping,,, :)

[fingerboy18]

I have a similar vocal range with Petrucci. It is not possible to sing like LaBrie unless you are a born tenor singer. It's a bummer because I'd like to sing along with DT and I find myself singing an octave lower at most parts.

[GuillermoSmyser]

Haha, yeah I'm a tenor but I still can't sing any images and words song all the way thru without going into falsetto.

[KaffeekocheR1]

this is not john petrucci o_O ?

[manthisprog]

Jajajajaja greaaaat!! jajaja that sucks! We love you anyway john!!

[KMatteKudasaiC]

What does james say at the end? hard to make out

[lostphoenix]

is there more on the cd?

[0iGer0]

this vid (or sound) will make me laugh till i die ... love petrucci 4ever and Ever

[Utorak007]

Lol finally i can say that im better at John Petrucci at something, fucking singing, lol but he wins either way cos of guitar.

[wtf334455]

XD It's okay John. I suck at vocals as well.

[myung7]

jajaja great

[CarterFilmLtd]

hahahaha!!! i love this!

[BirtanTR]

hahahaha :)

[ryujisan]

1:27 - haLLeLujah. proves the fact that Petrucci is a God.

[ryujisan]

holy shit this is funny as burning hell!

[lgeoghegan]

yeah, they do a similar thing on the new album systematic chaos

on the special edition DVD, theres a "the making of" documentary,

and he does some crazy vocals on that too ;)

p.s.

that isnt john petrucci as a young kid at 1:20,

because he didnt have that signature gutiar and that age ;)

[RokkumanZero23]

Maybe his son? Im sure about a daughter, but not so sure about a son. anyone can confirm this?

[lgeoghegan]

might just be some random kid with his guitar ;D

[elliottbradshaw]

i think he had twins..and thats one of them

[TimatorA]

it is john

dt always have a laugh like this

[brunocolisse]

man,it too bad

[Ylilordi]

He looks like Ron Jeremy there with Steve Morse :D

[StevenConverse]

Well if you guys notice he usually doesn't sing that high when he sings backup vocals for DT. Why don't you guys try and sing the line on The Spirit Carries On on that part. I bet if you heard yourself recorded, you wouldn't think highly of it either! besides, they're just having fun.

[13thorderbass]

its john but its meant to be funny and it is and it shows that they have fun and aren't all serious all the time

[organs]

Wow, so many people are so critical! Yeah, it is John Petrucci "singing". It's the band hanging out at Mike's place having some stupid fun. It's not to be critiqued; it's to be amusing.

[metalforlife101]

well if it is john singing, then he certainly got a lot better at singing since then because he sings a little backup in some songs, and sings quite a lot in the glass prison. a sick song btw haha.

[mihel89]

Yes it is. This can be found on a CD "the making of scenes of a memory".

[metalforlife101]

LOLOLOLOLOL. u guys are stupid. this isnt him singing. u idiots.

[fezthecat1]

trust me, it is him. It's from "making of scenes of a memory". You can easily recognize portnoys and labries voices in the backround.

[lostphoenix]

cunt stfu you thick prick.

lmfao great video

[metalforlife101]

wow fagot ur so fucking tough on youtube. lostphoenix ur under a glass moon is garbage and so are the rest of ur vids. ive been playing for 1 year and my videos on youtube are from 6 monthes ago and they rape urs. ur garbage and don't talk trash to people that would kick ur fuckin ass. i didn't even say anything to you. ur one gay fuckin kid

[metabog]

That's not john singing, I think it's whoever made the video... :D

[metabog]

wait yeah, it's john....

[jkf47]

Mr. Petrucci should not have tried to sing that high haha i believe that he can sing, just not at that octive

[KMatteKudasaiC]

John's speaking voice was made for radio..

[MeCorey]

Yeah, as said earlier, JP is a REALLY good singer, he's just mucking around.

[KMatteKudasaiC]

john cant sing..wut crack are u smoking...he's partially tone deaf..

[MeCorey]

im now certain, u've never heard him sing, properly.

[KMatteKudasaiC]

Ive seen him sing live..1000 times..and not on these "dvd's that you think are actually the slightest interpretation of wut dream theater vocals sound like live..the only time he sounds good is in studio recordings and dvd's(where his vocals are more often then not overdubbed(a good example is silent man off of live new york).

[KMatteKudasaiC]

So where is this grand example of an amazing singing john petrucci?..cuz if he cood sing he'd have a deadly voice..sadly he does not.

[CripplerMatt]

...oh yes!!! This is absolutely horrible...thank you John...
