Oct 20, 2010 - Does anybody know what that funny sound effect is created on, at 0:14, just as Frank is starting to sing?

Nov 11, 2010 - Steve Vai sings really well!!

Farksisten Says:

Nov 11, 2010 - Actully, it's mainly Robert Martin doing that line, it's just that the camera is on Steve's face.

CrosbyStillsNashYoun Says:

Nov 11, 2010 - Not convinced.

Farksisten Says:

Nov 14, 2010 - Well, check out Roberts vocals on Franks version of Whipping Post and compare. Vai did some background vocals and noises in Franks band, but he was mainly hired to play guitar.

Oct 7, 2011 - I hear his music and it just wakes me up. It hits my head, heart, and groin in unison, providing energy and performance you can't get from your average music. He is gas for the ass all other parts included, not only to get you up and groovin' but to keep ya movin' Thanks Frank, for your musical tank of gas. Gas.

Mar 30, 2012 - I've loved his music ever since I was 15 and couldn't make head or tail out of it at the time... It's been 25 years and still haven't gotten over it. It speaks to me, lyrics, music....
