PopTodd Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 The end of this song? I actually have to second the Bob Mould and Kurt Cobain nods. It hurts to listen. But in a good way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Synthesizer Patel Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 there's this little known black performer called Little Richard, don't know if anyone here has ever heard of him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rsjbraz Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 John Cale's scream in particular at the end of his version of I'm Waiting For My Man is something to behold. There are some live versions from late 70s/early 80s when he was generally out of it that are truly blood curdling! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mjpuczko Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 not sure if these guys have been mentioned:eddie vedder (just watched the vh1 rock honors: the who. holy shit did ed belt out reign o'er me)dave grohlroger daltry (not anymore, his voice sounded awful on that vh1 thing) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jesusetc84 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 The scream at the end of the bridge of "You Can't Always get What You Want" always gets me...it's not your usual scream; not angsty. But still fantastic. overall my two favorite screamers are Lennon and Cobain though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 dave grohlThe last verse of Monkey Wrench wins for longest, sustained, tuneful, understandable scream in rock history. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
benjamin Posted September 23, 2008 Author Share Posted September 23, 2008 David Lee Roth in Runnng With the Devil! That makes me laugh EVERY TIME! Never fails. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 The worst? Counting Crows - "Rain King" I am... The Rain KingYeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! Ugh. It's the moment that single-handedly turned me off to anything else they produced since then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fineartoflife Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Hey Jude Paul McCartney near end, is a classic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mjpuczko Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 The last verse of Monkey Wrench wins for longest, sustained, tuneful, understandable scream in rock history. good call! though lately his singing has turned into non-stop screaming. it's a tad annoying.

physicalgraffiti Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 i don't know if this counts for scream, but what started between me and my guy friend has spread to a bunch of my friends, when listening to kashmir, we all try to sing along when plant says been for about a million counts. approximately. its right as he says tryin to find where i've beeeeeeeeeeeeeeen. practicing that is a great way to improve your lung capacity Quote Link to post Share on other sites
benjamin Posted September 28, 2008 Author Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hey Jude Paul McCartney near end, is a classic You could throw 'Revolution' in there too. Jet's 'Cold Hard Bitch' has a pretty decent scream in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 The last verse of Monkey Wrench wins for longest, sustained, tuneful, understandable scream in rock history.I think Axl trumps that on "Don't You Cry." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
