Queen - "We Are the Champions" Acapella

"The Show Must Go On" version is absolutely incredible, especially considering he was practically on his deathbed when he recorded it.

I agree, sir!

And that shit was real back then, today's technology most vocals are really doctored!

Incredible!

I guess sucking cocks did something right for his vocal cords.

Would that be that "auto tune" crap? I am an admirer of real vocalists with the caveat that certain styles of singing do not appeal to tme no matter the voice. Ella Fitzgerald is my favorite female vocalist but I can't stand it when she does that "scat" singing. Same with the approach of someone like Whitney Houston and the style known as "runs". Both styles are aptly named as they sound like crap to me.

Is that acapella or just the isolated vocal track? If the latter, he was likely hearing the rest of the instrumentals over his gigantic 70's era headphones.

Totally agree. Talented dude. Really great singer. Kinda weird guy, loved cock.

It's too bad he passed away.

Saw Queen 1974 at the Erlanger theater in Philly. Sheer Heart attack tour with Kansas. To this day it is the best concert I have ever been. The place had 2500 seats max.

I saw Skid Row in concert in 1991 in their heyday, and at that time, Sabastian Bach had a vocal range that would send chills down you spine.

Is this the guy who died from having too much cock?

I assume you're not a fan of Sean Nos singing?

He was a very talented individual.
