SFAM with different singers
« on: December 06, 2010, 09:05:56 AM »
I had a thought this afternoon while listening to SFAM*.

If you could have any singers, dead or alive, take the parts of the various characters from Scenes from a Memory, who would you pick? Like what Roger Waters did with The Wall in Berlin 1990.

Nicholas
Victoria (preferably a female singer)
The Miracle (Edward)
The Sleeper (Julian)
The Hypnotherapist
The 'older man' (Fatal Tragedy)

Perhaps you could include some 'Narrator' figure for some difficult parts in Finally Free where it isn't so clear who's speaking. (Their love renewed, they'd rendez-vous).

*I don't claim to be the first person to have had this thought. I apologise if this has been done before.

For the record: IMO, JLB does a great job on SFAM; this is hypothetical.

Transatlantic did a cover of FF.  Neal Morse was an okay Nicholas.

Simone Simmons would be an interesting Victoria.  However, James recommends Myung, so I'll go with his judgment.

Sharon Den Adel from Within Temptation as Victoria. Not especially for her singing, though it is excellent, but  just 'cos she's hot.

Nicolas-James LaBrie
Victoria-John Myung (or Anneke)
The Miracle-Devin Townsend
The Sleeper-Daniel Gildenlow
The Hypnotherapist-Christopher Walken
The Old Man-Bruce Dickinson (though there's no way he would do something like this for only a small part like that  :lol)

I feel like I've plagiarized lots of UMH's list with some minor adjustments, but they're really the best voices for this kind of music that I can think of.
