I got bored the other day and recorded myself singing Frank's big solo from The Rocky Horror Show. I had to do Brad and Janet's parts too. Let's just say I wouldn't make a good Brad, lol. I also went a little flat at the end, but oh well.

  • Tim Curry was playing Frank on stage with Richard well before the movie, so YES, it is HIS role..and Richard CHOSE TIM TO PLAY IT..That's like saying that the Elvis impersonators are not just copies..get a brain.

  • @melissatorrisi1 Your Elvis analogy is quite flawed. Yes, I know very well that Tim was the first actor to play the role and he is undoubtedly the most well-known and the prototype. But Richard O'Brien wrote the character years before even meeting Tim. Frank N. Furter is a character; therefore, he can be played by numerous actors. Are all actresses who play Dorothy Judy Garland impersonators? What about Phantom? Are they Michael Crawford impersonators? No. They're actors playing roles.

  • You got to be louder on some notes and sing with a bit of a growl like Tim Curry did if you wanted to make your cover more close to the original. You have a great voice by the way. Also, don't be affraid to let anyone hear you. stress like that can cause muscles to tighten and your voice doesn't have as much power behind it.

  • @JordansGuitarCovers Thanks for the comments. I'm usually pretty loud, but I was recording this late at night and didn't want to wake the whole family, lol. Also, it is not really my intention to copy Tim Curry. While he was definitely a heavy influence, I like to give the characters I play my own flair.

  • yeah...il stick to tims version it sounds a lot better in my opinion =/

  • Sorry, Your just no franki,

    But well done good version :)

  • Sorry, decent enough try - but have heard one heck of a lot better. PErhaps, in my opinion, it was best you hadn't posted this opne...just my opinion...

  • I like this version too

  • Its not deep and low enough. Needs to be more sexual

  • Yea... This reminds why I think Tim curry is creepier than Freddy Krueger in the same outfit. ( shudder)

  • @WizardofOzfan39 Tim Curry never breaks character and is by far the best I've seen. GG on arguing over shit that doesn't really matter. HURP DURP ARGUE OPINIONS AS FACTS ALWAYS WIN? ARE YOU A CHRISTFAG TOO?

  • I swear the guy who singing it's my friends uncle

  • @MmeMortadelle this isnt tim curry's voice....

  • Awesome, really ;-D says a true lover of the movie:) !
