Tracy Chapman and Eric Clapton, Give Me One Reason
Good find!

well, this thread is still running... I've thought of something else... Not the most moving vocal performance but most moving... how can I say it?.. "behaviour on stage"? what they call being "a frontman" This is
And this is certainly one of "these" moments -

Tracy Chapman and Eric Clapton, Give Me One Reason
Good find!
I have had this song on my computer since 2006, according to the file, and the original version long before that. I could listen to Tracy Chapman all day. Adding Eric Clapton never hurts.

Roberta Flack, Bridge Over Troubled Water
-
I may see E.C. in concert in March. 'Twould be my third time seeing him.

Do you people even know how lucky you are?

Starting to realize it...

I've been watching some videos of James Brown live. I knew he got some highs, and I wanted to know how high. C6 (one octave higher than the tenor's high C), Holy Shit. lol 7.18
BTW 6.53's A5 sounds just like Paul in Twist And Shout -
Too much Freddie I guess but this is the best version ever of the song Spread Your Wings live
and this is double geniu,s Freddie Mercury + Montserrat Caballe, "isolated vocals" (louder than in the original) on The Golden Boy, gospel/opera/rock/whatever... -
Aretha Franklin, Bridge Over Troubled Water
-
Frank Sinatra-" Strangers in the night"/ "One for my baby(and one more for the road") Eva Cassidy _ "Over the rainbow" /"songbird" Bono/U2 _ "With or without you/"Bad" Andy Williams _ "Moon river" The Beatles _ "In my life"

2 from Elvis, quite different from one another How Great Thou Art
One Night With You -
Nilsson - Without You
-
I think this belongs here The 3 Tenors-Marechiare, sort of "jam session", not even operatic sometimes
-
talking bout Pavarotti, I think this is the most moving video I've seen on youtube Impossible duet of Freddie and Luciano-Too Much Love Will Kill You Too many high Gs for Luciano, but he does the song anyway, it seems like a tribute to Freddie, just look at Pavarotti's face. Freddie said a lot of times he was a Pavarotti fan, and often went to the opera to see Luciano (I wonder how Freddie managed to stay silent at the opera... lol)
It is a mash up of Queen's recording of the song and Luciano doing it with Brian May and Roger Taylor live -
and talking bout tenors, I think every tenor's secret dream is not to sing La Donna E Mobile or Nessun Dorma but the tenor part on Beethoven's 9th. This is best vocals I know for that part, Placido Domingo. Karl Bohm, Wiener Philarmoniker, too slow version of the 9th but Placido is memorable (and Jessye Norman) 12.04-13.09 (not that the rest is torture :wink
