People can down on Slipknot, on Stone Sour all they want but that will never disprove to me that Corey Taylor is one of the best rock vocalist in the world and one of the most down to Earth people I could ever hope to meet!

An absolutely AMAZING voice... Like I think he's one of the best vocalists there is... The range, from stuff like this and Snuff to the harder Slipknot stuff... Just so good. He makes it sound so rich and painful and emotional. Love it, love him... Muoy man crush lol❤

Corey Taylor is a legend and by far one of the best vocalist that I could think of

Just Me better than chester. His vocal range is beastly 5 and a half octaves. Although chester can sing higher i believe his range is around 3 and a half octaves. They are both vocal geniuses but i prefer corey taylors raw sound better its so good live.

everythingends555 Corey´s vocal range to 5(+) octaves is asymmetrically balanced, but it´s hardly around 3 (-/+) clean. It´s not his "vocal range" that makes people listen to him =) He´s pitchy in this video for example trying to reach just some of those Em7(?). He can´t use headvoice at all, but has an amazing chestvoice. It´s his vocal tone that is very specific; harsh/raw but still fragile sounding. Vocals are technically rated, and Corey uses a mashup of growl/scream/clean because his clean vocals are very limited due to him being a baritone with bad technique. That doesn´t matter though, obviously. Tone is what counts.

ThomasSaPe yea your right

what makes Corey such a great artist, is the charisma that he provides, the dedication and emotion he puts into each song, I mean you can literally feel the emotion in his lyrics every time he sings, he is a legend and anybody who disagrees doesn't know what makes music, music

This is the best acoustic set of all time! Hands Down!

I know some might pick this singing performance apart, but his heart and soul is in that voice so it's just perfect. He is a really incredible singer and once he hits those highs a lot of other singers would drop off. In fact, apparently he is capable of 5 and a half octaves, which is pretty incredible. This guy is a born musician, he has been living it for his whole life. Interesting read this guy is.

After watching interviews, acoustic performances and misc. I have to say Corey and his neck are pretty damn funny, respectful and honest. Great guy and extremely talented artist.

At the end when everyone sings along must have made Corey feel so humble. :,-)

"Wow, I need to quit obsessing over David Draiman." *turns on ipod* "Ooh, Stone Sour!" *begins Corey Taylor obession*

Corey fucking Taylor a living legend no fucking doubt about it

so perfect,love his voice his lyrics he is a musical genius no doubt..

you cant fuck with Corey. I hope you all appreciate how much hes done to keep, rock, and metal alive. I mean; at this point he's a fucking SAINT! Send this man x-mas cards

These are some of the best lyrics I've ever heard. Well written

Seen both Slipknot and Stone Sour live. I prefer a live Stone Sour. I love me some Slipknot, But Stone Sour lets Cory use his full vocal range.

Cory is so damn real. Love this guy to pieces. My favorite lead singer of all time is Ian Gillan but damn Cory you have come so far so quickly.(10 years) Such passion. His ability to carry a tune...harmonize and yet still scream with the best of them is really inspiring. Many can do one of the three but he stands out in his ability to do all three well. Song has inspired men through out history. I was song that brought us into this world and it is often song that leads us to the next life.

You have to give him props not only on his voice but the playing. This song is mostly barre chords and doing that on an acoustic is probably challenging. He manages it well, that's kinda to be expected seeing as it's his song ;D but he's pretty awesome, I love this version

Corey Taylor is by far one of the most talented of time and error. People underrate him and talk shit but They really cant say much because not to many artists can switch up the type of music they play and successfully do it. He is one of the few. Im not huge on slip knot but i do give him props to be able to do that typ of vocal talent to this type, Its not easy to sound without the stuio help. Acoustic is raw and he kills it. I love it.

Krasse Gänsehaut. So eine " schmutzige" Stimme! 2:58 so wie mein Vorredner sagte. Geile Sache!

That smile at the end!!! I love it so much. Hes such a beautiful man.

strong voice, most powerful voice, this corey is fantastic, the other corey is just an annoying person. i mean my cousin corey.

god i love this song, wish i was listening to the radio that day

a beautiful song of losing and finding ones self..

Will always love this song.. always a incredible experience with his music

His vocals in al these acoustic versions are flawless...

ive been listening to slipknot and stone sour for years and anything corey taylor sings or speak is true passion and its so hard to hear and see in a musician but corey taylor always does it and true fans that listend to him from day one is the reason why he is such a passionate musician----from a true MAGGOT

Already been 14 years since I first heard this song? I still love it.

His voice is so beautiful !

how many thumbs up can a person give!!!!!! great performance, my brother!!!!
