Professional opera singer and vocal coach Elizabeth Zharoff, who also hosts the YouTube channel, The Charismatic Voice, continues to explore the world of rock and metal. Join her as she listens to and gives a vocal analysis of the Def Leppard classic, “Photoghraph”.
Elizabeth: “I’ll be honest, when I analyzed ‘Pour Some Sugar On Me’ by Def Leppard, a song I was somewhat familiar with, I didn’t realize their story fully. This time, I was educated on Rick Allen’s accident, and what the entire band did for him. That made this live performance of ‘Photograph’ that much more moving.”
Elizabeth has previously shared vocal analyses of Metallica, Dream Theater, Rush, Heart, Tenacious D, Sabaton, Motörhead, Ayreon, Faith No More, Black Sabbath, Arch Enemy, Epica, Deep Purple, Myles Kennedy, Scorpions, Heart, Blind Guardian, Devin Townsend, AC/DC, Triumph, Whitesnake, Queen, KISS, Guns N’ Roses, Opeth, The Cult, Powerwolf, Toto, Van Halen and Journey.
Def Leppard have released the official music video for their cover of the Ben E. King classic, “Stand By Me”. Stream the song here, and watch the clip below.
Says Def Leppard: “We are very excited to share our take on ‘Stand By Me’ from Bank of Dave 2. The new music is out today. Proceeds from the track will be donated to FireAid to assist in both short-term relief efforts and long-term initiatives to prevent future fire disasters throughout Southern California. Los Angeles, we stand by YOU.”
The members of Def Leppard previously shared the following statements:
“Los Angeles & its surrounding area has always played a central role in Def Leppard’s career, from it being where some of us are based and it being our U.S. hub for rehearsals, to being the city where we played our first-ever American gig. We feel blessed to be able to dedicate this song & give all the royalties to the amazing heroes in L.A. helping those affected by the fires. No better song.” – Joe
“For a time in the 80’s and 90’s, LA became my home from home. To see the devastation caused by the wildfires is heartbreaking. To everyone affected by the tragedy, our hearts go out to you all. May you find a way forward physically, mentally and spiritually. It’s hard to comprehend the incomprehensible but there’s a chance if we stand by each other.“ – Sav xx
“I have a continued appreciation for the L.A. firefighters and all of the first responders. I know how important first responders are in states of emergency, especially given my history, which is why in addition to supporting FireAid through the release of “Stand By Me,” the Raven Drum Foundation will be offering 5 signed guitars to benefit First Responders Resiliency Inc., offering free resiliency and trauma trainings for first responders and their families across California.” – Rick
“In times of devastation, standing together is more important than ever. As a resident of Southern California for 35 years, I’ve witnessed the impact of wildfires as they continue to ravage communities across California. Our cover of Ben E. King’s ‘Stand By Me’ is a tribute to resilience, unity, and hope. All proceeds from our version will go directly to wildfire victims, helping those who need it most. Let’s stand by each other and make a difference—because no one should face hardship alone.” – Phil
“Having spent most of my adult life living in L.A., it’s beyond heartbreaking to see the devastation wrought by the fires. I’m familiar with each and every neighbourhood affected and know so many who have lost their homes and livelihoods. Our thoughts continue with them all as they begin to rebuild their lives and communities.” – Viv
