Top 10 Tobias Sammet Vocal Performances
Tobias Sammet is a German metal singer who formed Edguy at only 14. At 21 he created Avantasia - a rock/metal opera project. He has been working for the both bands simultaneously since 1999 as their lead singer, lyricist, composer, mastermind and leader. In the early 90s he was also a bassist and keyboardist.The guy is immensely talented.
His gorgeous voice and top notch vocal skills make him one of the best metal singers ever. Not to mention that he sounds like a combination of Bruce Dickinson and Michael Kiske.
It's not my favorite song but I put it at #1 because it's an epic vocal performance. Some really tough stuff to sing.
His vox are awesome throughout the entire song but try espicially 5:05-6:05
He did a great job here!
My fave song from him - vox in the intro and the chorus are just what I need to hear. And his sustain of about 13 seconds is awesome.
Can you believe, Tobi sings jazz in the middle of a metal song and sounds amazing! (3:25-4:25).
By the way I know nothing about this band (Aina). I mean Tobi sang for many lesser known bands and people are not aware of his full vocal potential.
Pleasure start to finish
The intro sream is one of the best I've ever heard - long, powerful and beautiful.
I just listened to a section of this song several times in a row - from 5:30 to the end is pure eargasm. It has a sustain of 14-15 seconds among the other things.
I should have put this song higher. There are several more stellar moments in this song.
A remarkable duet with Jorn Lande.
A song with additional vocals from Hansi Kürsch (Blind Guardian). Tobi and Hansi singing together - can't get any better!
I love his intense vocals here.
I think the Mandrake album has his best vocal showing and none of the songs are weak vocally, this is the weakest vocal performance off the entire album
Thanks for adding this, wolphert.
Tobias Sammet just doesn't have bad vocal performances and it was difficult to select only 10 songs.
This is an ABBA cover - it takes guts to do a song originally by the blonde songbird but Tobi sounds really really good. I like the cover in general - it's one of the best metal covers of pop songs
I love how he sings the chorus to this songs especially the end
I was relistening to to my Edguy mp3 collection and I was amazed by this forgotten song, Sammet screams his heart out on this song
