Does It Feel Like Love kicks ass - gonna listen to these other two after dinner. What's the story on these guys? I've never heard of them.

3 of the worst singers in history. But it ain't always about the power or tone of the voice. I'm a tone kinda guy though, hence my love for Lou and Steve etc...


me too, sTONEcold :lol:

kidding aside, I like Lou's tone better than Perry's. In Lou's prime his voice was multilayered. His patented Gramm scream/screech is a staple of rock. Even on slow songs he found places to throw that in. :)

It's better than the Fab Four IMHO.

Lou sounds a lot better than a couple of years ago but still doesn't sound like his former self. :cry:


I love this version. You're right, this cover is better than the original. Wish Gramm had done a covers album before the voice change. Thanks for linking it.
