Eyes of a Stranger the greatest freaking vocal performance ever in metal?

Been on a QR kick lately, made a mix for the car, and that track just soars so much cranked up. Tate never sounded better ....

I'm still willing to mail the geoff tate solo cd to whoever wants it.

It's up there. and if it isn't, it's another performance by Tate that is. When he sings, "the rosary wrapped around your throat", I get chills every time. Hell, I just got chills typing it out. By Tate, I also love "Take Hold of the Flame" (probably my favorite), "I Dream In Infra Red" and "The Killing Words".

Take Hold of the Flame ... that bit where the drums come in ... priceless.

Tate was good on Warning but O:M he has his best moments ...

 

[JayKeeley]

I don't know what the best vocal performance is, but it's probably by Tate and it's probably on O:M.

If I had to pick one CD, as my favorite vocal perforance of all-time, it would be "Rage for Order".

Probably not. Sorry.

If live albums count, than Live After Death it is. My favorite Tate moments would have to be Screaming In Digital and Anybody Listening, besides the ones already mentioned anyway.

Vocals performance on Mercenary - Firesoul is pretty excellent.
