There are an article in the New York Times not too long ago about the rock n roll scream. I mentioned Prince in the comments and editors chose it as one of the featured comments. I mentioned "Endorphinmachine", "In This Bed..." and "When Doves Cry".

Was interesting hearing who people thought were the best screamers in that comments section.

I've always been impressed with the vocal work in "Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic". He damn near screams the whole song, in falsetto... that's quite a feat!!

most of the 1999 album had some good screams
[Edited 8/29/09 20:19pm]

Yep...I've stated that on here several times. To me, that's his screaming album, hands down. Kinda surprised that no one on here mentioned "God" vocal. That cat reached something else on that. Jeffiner (Jennifer) would attest to this. She must hadn't seen this thread cuz she would have most certainly stated God as her pick.


A-Ha! I wasn't imagining the "God" scream. Unfortunately the only record players I have access to have broken stylii (sp?) so I can't confirm. I will NOT ruin my purple vinyl! Also, I wimped out on mentioning it because I really didn't want to have to get ka-ray-zuh if someone tried to punk me online for doing so.

But I now remember those exact screams. And no, not the best. But another one that cracks me up. Love the recycling of the "hahahahaha" from Darling Nikki too.

Thanx!

Lawd...

the scream he did live while singing The Beautiful Ones in LA on the Musicology tour...my seat is never dry after that. disbelief


Huh-naaay, u are so right. I must say though, each time I've seen him do that song live, it has the same effect...for, over 25 years now. OUCH.

Anyway, shoot, it has the same effect whenever I watch the movie! (And I ditched school -- with permission -- to go to the premiere.)

G'Lawd is RIGHT! lol

Thanks for great posts, all.

Yuppers! See, there are just way too many! "It's just not fay-yuh!" That's a great classic scream.

The scream(s) in the live version of God (as heard in the March 31st 198FIVE show from Syracuse, NY)

Man he'd put so much emotion and energy (and theater) in that!

- Who screamed? Was it you? Or was it you?
What do you mean it's not in the computer?

The end of We can Funk... Ever heard that on headphones? The reason why I like the GB version more than any demoversion of it

Amen, on this one. His screaming is fantastic on this, and it's so in the background too. It's either between this, Something In The Water, and the end of Now (which trips me out every time I hear it).
