Kai Hansen is a damn good singer.

How the hell is that even possible? What's even more impressive is that this version even blows the original with Ralf Scheepers on vox away.

If I hadn't known better, I would've suspected that being a sample.

This is chill-inducing:

I love Kai's voice, his tone is definitely among the most unique and original in power metal. I especially like his voice in ballads, A While In Dreamland gives me chills! And that "Halford" note is insane! Plus the riff is Painkillerish, I could have sworn it was Halford hadn't I known it's Kai.

Have you guys heard the unplugged version of RiD, it's pretty neat:

This guy sounds so much like Dickinson. In some parts I have to remind myself it's not, eerily similar.

Ok, this is almost unnatural, he sounds nearly exactly like the early 80's Dickinson! This is a pretty good song, too! I downloaded their first album and will check it out soon.

Crazy resemblance. Music's pretty cool, too.

Gorgeous, something tells me you could've filled the whole thing with Meatloaf. You did miss one good one, tho, namely Gillan's butchering of the "Child in Time" screams from 1970. I know it was either In Concert or Scandinavian Nights.

No, it was a good performance, but Gillan struggled hitting the first batch of high notes, every single time. When it was time for the highest ones, he hit them with ease.

Watch this if you want to laugh, I made a collection of really hilarious vocal fails... Remember to read the description too! :lol:

That was great! Wow Meatloaf was awful.

What's amazing is that Dickinson still sounds like 80s Dickinson if you see him live. There are no signs of his voice losing range. Now Rob Halford on the other hand...

That's some epic shit Timi! :cool:

Is there gonna be more, because there are more amazing singers missing (Allen, Farnham, Boals, Sammet...)?
Also, you are a true high note addict! :lol:

Buckley, Adams and Lambert clips prove this, there were better choice, but you had to showcase the amazing high note. Nothing bad about that though! :cheers:

Lambo's clips was really short, and you could add facemelter for Heiman.

If there is a third part, I'd gladly help. And once again, terrific work.

Oh, Timi, why not Help for John Farnham?

Ah, my sincere apologies there. :tiphat:

P. S. Don't get my complaints as if I'm saying the video is bad, the video (both of them) is PHENOMENAL!
