Default Jon singing the chorus in Prayer 1993


At the 2:40 mark, you can see and hear Jon singing the woooooooooooo in the chorus.

I remember reading in Seb's website that he stoped doing that after he ruined his vocal chords in 1987.

I'm wondering if he got carried away by the moment and went for it, or if it was a regular thing on that tour.

Regards

He got carried away, that entire show was one vocal highlight and I'm sure he's done it a few more times that tour, but even there you hear him struggle with it.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

He also sings it here

But he doesn't do the key change. I never understood why he didn't do the chorus on LOAP during the 80s and 90s,sure it ain't easy but i'm sure it wasn't that hard for him considering that he still had range and the band provided good backing vocals.


He also does some parts of the chorus here.
Also at Osaka 1995 he sang the 'OOh'' part after the key change.

His voice in excellent shape in that. Listen to the long high note at 2:15. He also sings parts of the chorus after the key change.

As much as I prefer NJ as an album, as far as setlists and Jon's voices goes, the KTF tour was probably the best the band ever did. Just check out that note Ice referred to!

That attempt sounds like a scream from Living in Sin more than the key change of Prayer.Anyway i think that the note is pretty high,so can someone with experience here tell us what note that is?
