LOL good gawd, puhlease. :lol: And have to agree, higher pitch and/or range are much further down on the criteria that makes a voice outstanding to me.

SP could sing on a "Close-n-Play" Recording....
....and I'd STILL listen.

Hey there...

Played me some SMFP on the way home from my new job(!!!!) today.

Listened to what I think is called, "We All Want To Be Loved".

Sounded like a mic was held up to the earpiece of a PHONE for the recording.
I DON'T CARE.....Steve, release your new stuff already!

SORRY, FALSE ALARM:



Are you saying you heard this song from SP upcoming CD? Is this a song from it?


No; this is an ROR era song that never saw the light of day.

Will upload soon...

Sorry; gotta go back to TRAG Band Practice now....

A high pitch isn't necessarily indicative of great range, which was the point I was going at. I certainly take pitch and range into great consideration when gauging the abilities of singers. But there are plenty of tenors out there who seemingly can't change tone; limited only to the metaphorical rafters and ceilings of vocals. Unlike Steve Perry, who was phenomenal on all scales.

Geddy Lee isnt even in the same league as Perry. Perry has a much better tone, range, and vocal ability to his voice. Perry voice is also much stronger and sounds ten times better live than Geddy Lee. I will say that Geddy has a unique and different sounding voice, but for me its really squeeky and annoying.
