Think if I figured it out today. I was listening to Inna Gadda Da Vida, realized that whoever sings for Iron Butterfly did the post grunge heyaheeyeah thing, and it dawned on me that that style goes straight back to Elvis. View quoted note →

Is there a name for that style of male singing that’s kind of over the top, baritoney grunge? Eddie Vedder is definitely an early example (see “Yellow Ledbetter”) but the style was brought to perfection and therefore killed by Scott Stapp, the singer for Creed. Today I was listening to Amoreena, the Elton John song, and Elton’s got a bit of that heya yeaheeyeah too. I wonder how far back that goes

25 years ago today, right at midnight, my uncle cut the power to the cabin my whole extended family was staying at for the Y2K new year’s. My grandma went nuts. She had stocked up a bunch of non perishable food and supplies and was a Y2K true believer. All of us kids were completely flabbergasted for a few minutes. My uncle seized a once in a millennium opportunity for a practical joke and got us all. Absolutely legendary.
