I'm not sure about the specifics of it... although I remember reading a quote by Ms. Dalbello where she said she was impressed that Geoff Tate could hit some of those notes & she was very pleased with their cover.

You can find the original music video for this song here on YouTube as well.

My mother heard whomanfoursays nonstop as a young woman, I heard it as a child, teen and now as a young woman and when I have a girl someday, I'll play this for her ^^

Orgasmus auf der Tanzfläche, ach waren das Zeiten,...schön...... :-)

Lisa Dal Bello is real great. But I`m in hope this guitar player never ever played a guitar with a vibrato after this concert - till he learned how to use it. His "Solo" sounds like he ever used the vibrato for the first time in his life.

this was still 2 years before queensrÿche did their version

[DallasHammster]

This sounds like she took some hints from Queensrych's cover version when reworking it for this show. I like it! ^_^

Dalbello was WAAAY before her time. Back then you were either pop or metal and there wasn't the internet around to be able to hear different sounds. She really gave it a good shot but sadly her music wasn't Top 40 at the time.

[PetruoFan]

Dalbello makes talented female singers like Fiona Apple, Nikka Costa and Alanis Morissette sound like Idol rejects! Too bad she didn't release any new album since 1995...

Interesting. How did Queensryche end up doing this song?
