Darn, Goeff was already cheating back in 88. Only live version I've seen when he sings it accurately is the one on Japan. Damn that Serial Urinator.

[resurgam44]

Are you talking about his slight Eb5 pitch issues throughout, or his skipping the Eb5 at the end of the song?

[almadido]

there's no cheating here.. is voice started misfiring around 97-98 and the material was weak also to suit his capabilities.. queensryche 1983 to 1993 were UNTOUCHABLE!.. end of story!

@einarabelc5 dude your fucking retarded! Geoff Tate sings in accuratly in every version! even recent ones! your stupid!

[yanava]

Tate was doing everything right so he had a long lifespan on his voice. Many people his age can't hit the notes he still hits. Singing one time is completely different from touring. When you tour you have to do the same thing over and over, so you cannot anihilate the world every performance.

@dweebdotcom Lemme see. User name...Hysteric...assuming... You have all the requirements to be a true fanatic my friend. I recommend you take the time to search the word in the dictionary. That is if your education allows you to.

Just so you know. I actually took my time to meet Geoff Tate personally and buy his wine and he's my favorite singer. But I guess that being a hysteric ayatollah like yourself you rather do a typical youtube comment than ask.

[dweebdotcom]

@einarabelc5 when you say cheating do you mean cheating as in the way you were cheated out of brains if thats the case then your a fucking idiot

classic, /watch?v=QAXq3zckdQ0, /watch?v=o5L-AfTUmT0

In my view, Geoff is at his best here. A bit more comfortable in the deeper register than earlier in the 80's, but the increased depth suits him. In general, I think his vocals are good in general, but beyond belief on Rage for Order and Mindcrime.
