I think you can hear him sing clearly on a DVD...not sure which one, but I think the song he sings is Somebody To Love.

You are such an IDIOT! Jhon's voice is perfectly
fine! And so is Roger's King Rat. And all who listen KING RAT IS AN ASSHOLE!

You can hear John also in Somebody To Love at Earl's Court '77 in the final chorus. "can anybody find me". A horrible voice. But He always tried to sing in concerts.
Please will you direct me in the right way?

I love an eloquent discussion with good reasoned arguments, don't you?
Don't get me wrong, I think John is the greatest rock star on earth, but the fact that he wasn't confident with his singing really shows when he did sing. And as for Roger's voice, as I said on another thread recently, back in the day, he was one of the best backing singers in the business, but these days....

Well John didn't always mime all the time in videos. On play the game when it goes "Play the game, play the game, play the game, etc, John just stares at the camera!

And I think John sings when he feels relaxed enough. On Live At Wembley, on one of the songs when they're just messing about you can see John is really laid back, and he sometimes sings the backing vocals - using Roger's mike.
don't have anything constructive to contribute but i did find this quote that i thought u might be interested in. it's from a radio show:


Jacky: We discuss yourselves.. and I think a burning question is we all want to know if you have heard John sing.. and what did you do about it?

Roger: I'm afraid I have to admit.. I have heard him sing.. and that's why you cant find him on the records.

Jacky: I have heard he have a fab singing voice.. especially in the shower...

Brian: Oh? have you been there?? I must have missed that..

Roger: I wouldn't have known about that.. he's a great bass-player though.. for a singer..

Jacky: so he doesn't actually sing on any of the records then.. or anything like that?

Brian: I don't think he's ever been nearer than a couple of a inches to a microphone and made any kind of noise what so ever..

Jacky: o, that's a shame...

Roger: well actually, he is quite silent.. he enjoys.. not saying much

Jacky: Yeah. this was like a burning question.. does he sing or doesn't he.. and there's lots promotional pictures of John with his mouth open.. and we didn't know if anything was coming out..

Brian: I have to tell you I do remember John singing the lines to Another one bites the dust to Freddie. so it is possible you know.. but he's a bit shy about it.. he doesn't like to sing in public

Agreed...

John could sing fine, he was just far too embarrased and shy to do so in public.


That's what people tell me, that I can sing just fine but I'm FAR to embarassed and shy to do so.

Oh btw where can I find this Earl's Court concert. I'd LOVE to see it. Can anyone help?
