[03] Queens of the Stone Age - Millionaire (Live @ Werchter 2011)

[wykydrone]

This non screamo version sounds good. It's just like josh said it's a little dance number. Nick makes it sound like non Qotsa still good with him much better without.

[ExclaimedMusic]

Am I the only one that likes this song better with Josh singing it?

[ghoawaynetcabo]

@ExclaimedMusic No, thankfully.

However (even though this aint his best performance) the majority thinks that ALL songs that Josh didnt happen to record as lead vox should NEVER AGAIN be touched! As any difference automatically SUCKS! And that QOTSA are blasphemers for the audicity of deciding over THEIR songs that THEY co-wrote.

As if you didnt know Josh, he just jokes about it live and then plays them.

Irony: Nick himself has expressed his support for this and for the band.

[greengreen2700]

This is disappointing. They sound like a cover of themselves. It's like Josh is going out of his way to try to prove that they don't need Nick. There's no way around the fact that the sound is different, not necessarily in a bad or good way, but different. They should embrace that instead of trying to be what they were.

[ghoawaynetcabo]

@greengreen2700 ?! This IS a cover of themselves. It's a different guy singing it. What did you expect it to sound?! The same shit to you? How was it supposed to sound if Josh was NOT going out of his way to prove whatever bullshit you're talking about. Or would you prefer they'd just stop doing some of their own songs, like this one? Well tuff luck, they've been doing it for over SEVEN years! Where you been?! Thinking about Nick, still.

[greengreen2700]

@ghoawaynetcabo I think band is still awesome without Nick, but it's stupid to pretend like they're not different. I think they should have closed some chapters of the book when he left the band. In my opinion his vocals made this song and this version is disappointing.

[ghoawaynetcabo]

@greengreen2700 Man, who's pretending? Who's trying to prove shit to anyone? Sorry but your distorted view shows you're still glinged to the 'holy way' that this was recorded. Yet for SEVEN years they kept on doing this their own way. Playing great shows and not pussying out of any song line-up. And you act like this was the morning after Nick left and they still even think about it. This is why Josh used to make "blasphemy" jokes before playing certain songs /watch?v=ZdknMyD4Roc

[greengreen2700]

@ghoawaynetcabo You're pretending and Josh is trying to prove shit. Keep up. I like the new stuff and I support the band. I'm just saying I personally don't think this sounds good without Nick, and I don't think it's true to the band's recent style.

[ghoawaynetcabo]

@greengreen2700 ?! Lol not sure you been reading my comments... but I see it's hopeless anyway. Doubt you'd see things properly even if you would actually get updated with all that has happened and has been spoken and done and played for so many years now

[greengreen2700]

@ghoawaynetcabo Just because I disagree with you doesn't mean I don't understand you or I'm not entitled to my opinion. I'm more interested in listening to the band's music rather than arguing with some guy who thinks he knows everything about everything and everyone else is wrong.

[ghoawaynetcabo]

@greengreen2700 Nope, m'afraid you apparently dont understand. But yes you're very much entitled to opinions or to say whatever crosses your head for that matter. Of course I'm sure you're aware that everyone else is also automatically entitled to say that some of those opinions are very fundamented, different, unbiased and sensible. Or not.

As for listening to the music that the band is and has been doing and playing, think I made it clear how much I recommend it...

[TheBiggerrich]

Makes me chuckle when you hear the early cheers......

[umnomedeutilizador]

Does anyone know any vid of mikey doing the vocals on this one3, or at least a gutural vocals song?

thx.

[Porly62]

The more laid back, sexy version...

[sfbayarea21]

I like Josh and all, but this song sucks with him singing.

[whydonaldwhat]

0:14 holy shit that old lady lol. QOTSA is fucking awesome

[systema7x421]

Hey everyone you all suck, after the first record Queens of the Stone Age WAS literally Homme and Oliveri, after Josh fired Nick it became the Josh Homme Show, an (excellent) entirely different thing. Dont compare bassists by "skill", know your shit and have your own fucking opinion. bam

[kunaikai]

@systema7x421 no oliveri didnt do anything in the first qotsa album. it was carlos von sexron(josh) who did the bass tracks

[systema7x421]

@kunaikai thats why i said "after the first record", he didnt record but he joined and toured on the first cycle

[rudder64]

Who's Joey? Thats CLEARLY Kenny Hotz .

great live. damn i need to see this band live once before i die, but they'll never come to South Africa. sigh another dream crushed .....

[kelmerica]

Mikey sucks...nobody can be Nick. But he just doesn't belong in this band



[kunaikai]

@kelmerica TROLL!

[WolvieProductions]

Great 'unhurried' version!

[FerdinelloMusic]

Who gave that crazed beast Joey Castillo drum sticks? God bless your soul.

[Blacksadback]

Mikey's mic needs more volume...

awesome live btw

[lsufan9999]

Joey needs to fix the jew fro.

[dinadantj]

Does anyone else think Mikey looks like a werewolf?

[RectoBold]

Yeah - Shoes needs to be the one singing this.

[jonnyboyxxx]

bit too slow for me.

[casmiry]

@jonnyboyxxx like the one on Desert Sessions.

[jonnyboyxxx]

@casmiry yeah in my opinion, the SFTD version is better, it needs to be that tempo or faster for this song to feel like someone shook up a can of fuck and opened it in your face

[McFro95]

This version's better imo, Nick's just an idiot...

[puma0927]

slow paced but still nice! mikey should start singing it though

[DJMC141]

Mikey should sing on this, or at least get Josh to scream

[killinginthem0vies]

@DJMC141 I thought I was the only one who thinks Mikey could sing this song. His scream is powerful!

[BenGordonBITCHSLAP]

@DJMC141 Josh has said in interviews that he can't scream for shit without sounding like a 12 year old girl, but I agree, Mikey should sing this :D

[hosenhochable]

@BenGordonBITCHSLAP in which interview does he say that?

[ESSIGUTT01]

I love QOTSA still I think Nick should sing this!

[RHCPFFQOTSA]

thx for the upload!

[gianlucaseveri]

Yeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!! Great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks to exist.

[TaffyRaphie]

Nick who? when Mikey's bass and scream come in, you'd swear a lion were roaring. Bass just growls on this one

[mickcoop91]

@TaffyRaphie are you fucking serious??????????!!!!?!?!?!?!?­!!!!!!???!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!­!!!!!!! do not ever, never,,,,,everrrrr,,never compare this guy to nick oliveri......ever...watch the 2003 version at rock em ring where nick sings the whole song and its about double the pace of this version...........i loive in wollongong and every now and again nick comes down and does acoustic shows and he opens with this. full on screams it! just him and an acoustic guitar.....screaming his tits off..

[mickcoop91]

@mickcoop91 sorry with my anger and excitement of just talking about the awesomness that is nick oliveri i ran out of space. HE IS GOD......he took a little to much drugs which has left him a little kooky

[kunaikai]

@mickcoop91 the problem i have with anything oliveri did was it was too fast because oliveri doesnt know how to keep time

[mickcoop91]

@kunaikai ummm who needs timing when ur almost always semi naked bald and have an awesome goattie! legend

[jessemaes1990]

@kunaikai Dude what are you saying... You're probably no musician yourself.

[kunaikai]

@jessemaes1990 i play bass drums trumpet guitar and keyboard dude

[jessemaes1990]

@kunaikai In that case you must not have a good ear. Oliveri's timekeeping is just fine, live and in the studio.

[timbo177]

Much more energetic with Oliveri on vox but this version sounds pretty damn sexy.

[ChawinTree]

You feel and and you fucking look it too!

[SetGuitars2Kill]

Awesome :)
