00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: I'm okay just a little bit.

10
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 3: I think maybe I'm trying to talk myself into being

00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 3: warm and being all right this weekend negative.

12
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,320

14
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 2: otherwise I can bargue up a heater, so I'm good

15
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: either way.

16
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: Tell everybody what barguments is.

17
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 2: Well, Hammer, I'm glad you ask that question. Arguments is

18
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: kind of the same arguments you have with all your

19
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 2: buddies at bars, barbecues, barbershops, nails lines, anywhere where you

20
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 2: guys are thrown down. Some would you rather some out rushmores,

21
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 2: and just some regular good old fashioned arguments If you

22
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 2: had no real answer, it's just fun, just something to

23
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 2: do to pass the time I started a podcast about it,

24
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 2: and right now we're about to have a fun one.

25
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: If you're down, I'm down.

26
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: Like this candle, what do we got?

27
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad you went ahead and solidified it with

28
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 2: that very turn, because this one is gonna be what

29
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 2: male vocalists had, the most powerful voice of all time?

30
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: Oh male or vocalist? Most powerful voice of all time?

31
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: All right, I gonna need a second to think about this. Base.

32
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: You go ahead and get us rocket and rolling here.

33
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 2: Well, besides myself, as far as powerful voices are concerned,

34
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: I put myself at the top of that list. But

35
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 2: since I had no music top any sharks, I'm gonna

36
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: go with journeys. Steve perry Oh good one.

37
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: Listen to it, bring that home, any number of Journey songs, Dan.

38
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: That voice is so powerful it brings you back to

39
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 2: the eighties on its own. That thing is a generational

40
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 2: voice right there, and.

41
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 3: Powerful doesn't necessarily have to mean deepest, because you've got

42
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,679
Speaker 3: much the awesome deep voice there. But Steve perry Man,

43
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 3: when he's bringing it home and open Arms or any

44
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 3: one of the Journey hits he's got.

45
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: It's one of those voices where if somebody sings a

46
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 2: journey song on like an American idol. You know, America's

47
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 2: got talent that stops the room and they automatically get

48
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: the green light to go to the next round. That's

49
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 2: how big of a voice that is. That is a

50
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: gayway into whatever reality TV show you're watching. They will

51
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 2: walk through with that one.

52
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: If they do it correctly, if they do it, if

53
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: they nail it, if they nail right.

54
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 3: If I sang don't stop believing, people would be like,

55
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 3: why is that hillbilly yelling at him to the wheels.

56
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: Keep on turn?

57
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 2: And people will turn their wheels out of the place

58
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: where I'm mad and drive home.

59
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 3: Nigel is out today, which means we get to spend

60
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 3: a little bit more time with the first Lady of

61
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 3: the hammer in Nigel Show producer Allison jump in the

62
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 3: mix here, what do we got?

63
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna go with someone maybe not everyone's favorite,

64
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 4: but I do think his range is the most powerful.

65
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 4: Freddie Mercury, Oh that's good, you listen to that.

66
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: That's ridiculous.

67
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 3: I mean that last one right there, Allison sounded like

68
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: that Looney Tunes cartoon where the tenor had his tuck

69
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 3: seed or roll up and he's hitting that final note

70
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: still going.

71
00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's probably going still and is great.

72
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: You know what cartoon I'm talking about, right Dad? Oh yeah, yeah,

73
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: what he's doing.

74
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 2: He's that guy his sweat, but he's doing all kinds of.

75
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 4: Versions of under pressure. Uh. I mean, his vocal range

76
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 4: is like a four octaves. It's insane.

77
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 2: Freddy is so good that Brian May and Roger Taylor

78
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 2: are still having a successful career because without that, dude,

79
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 2: that those two guys would just be some random roadies

80
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,119
Speaker 2: for a band anywhere else.

81
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 3: I think we've had the argument before of is Freddie

82
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 3: Mercury the greatest front man in the history of any band?

83
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 2: Definitely mounta Rush, Definitely, He's definitely on the mount Rush

84
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 2: for yes, I would agree.

85
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: All right, So I've been thinking about this now.

86
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 3: It's not necessarily my favorite artist in the world, but

87
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: you can't deny the pipes.

88
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: I got two words for you, Michael Bolton. Come on,

89
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: Allison's taking her pants off right now.

90
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 3: Listening to that, you hear that, that's power, that's a power.

91
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 3: And if that's not enough, you've got the bobs from

92
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 3: the movie office.

93
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: Space they're telling you how awesome. He is too. I

94
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: love his music.

95
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 3: I do.

96
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: I'm a Michael Bolton fan from my money. I don't

97
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: know if it gets any better than when he sings

98
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: when a Man loves a woman.

99
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's pretty.

100
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: He's pretty good.

101
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 2: I guess you're right, he is.

102
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: I celebrate the guy's entire catalog.

103
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 3: So I'm coming at the table with Michael Bolton When

104
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 3: a man loves a woman, time, love and tenderness, all

105
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 3: that stuff.

106
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: Man, time, love and tenderness.

107
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the YouTube chat here bass.

108
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 3: Okay, So we've got some folks outside of pop music.

109
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 3: Pavaratti of course, the famous tenor Pavarotti. I'm seeing some

110
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 3: nominees here for I Bond Scott original AC DC front man.

111
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 2: That's definitely power.

112
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: What about Josh Grobin?

113
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 4: Oh, I did consider him.

114
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 3: Josh Grobin seems like he's kind of like a poor

115
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 3: man's Pavaratti.

116
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: Does that make sense? He's JV Pavarotti.

117
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 4: He's a little much for me sometimes, but I would

118
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 4: say he's up there.

119
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would. I would say, like a James Headfield

120
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: of Metallica has got that power.

121
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 1: Oh yeah he goes ooh.

122
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,560
