OT: Harem Scarem

by **AntonioDJ** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 11:55 am

Since I can't get anyone to join me on that forum, I'll bring it here if that is ok. This song comes from Live at the Gods - same place where former Journey lead singer JSS released a DVD from - which is very good by the way. This song is called "Honestly". Let me know what you think. The vocals are a little more raspy than some of you might like, but I think Harry Hess is a great singer!

I have everything they have ever done. Not my favourite song.

"Rain". That's 'Scarem at its best.

Rain is probably my favorite too. Honestly is better in its studio form, but I was going for the Journey connection with Soto and Live at the Gods to get some interest. :wink:

Harem Scarem is a fantastic band. I've only been able to get a hold of 5 of their CDs since I was first exposed to them, but they're all very, very good.

I wish more people knew about them. Here is a good checklist so you can see what you may want to add to your collection!

I've heard of them, but know absolutely nothing about them. Should I be checking them out? Do they compare with anyone else in particular, or are they just 100% their own style?

The best advice and cheapest short of blowing a lot of money on imports is to type "Harem Scarem" into youtube and see what you think. The music is very melodic. Harry Hess sounds like a cross between a more modern rock singer with a tinge of Bryan Adams I think. Raspy, but full of emotion. Check them out and let me know what ya think.

I think 7 is right, I just checked out Rain on youtube and much prefer his vocals on that one than that Honestly clip. On that Honestly clip, his vocals sounded almost Nirvana-ish in parts. :shock:

Man would that have been a great show to see (Gods 2002). JSS, Eric Martin, Honeymoon Suite, Harem Scarem, etc.............

Try the studio version of Honestly on youtube. That one might be more to your tastes.

I'll post more when I get back if anyone is interested. Thanks to everyone who checked them out. I only put it in this Journey forum because no one answered me in the Harem forum. Now I know this is the main place. Thanks for answering me.
