Crazy voice at end of Fire In The Hole

[VHKC1984]

I'm sorry if I am posting this question and it's already on here, but I can't find info on VH III. I was just wondering if anyone knew who's voice was at the end of "Fire In The Hole" that sounds like a crazy man panicking?
Again, sorry if this is already somewhere and I missed it.

You mean the one saying Scripture such as "rudder or ship which sets the course/does not the bit bridle the horse" etc, as the song fades out?

That is Gary Cherone.

[VHKC1984]

Yeah. It sounds like at one point, he screams "Fire! Smoke! Flames!" That's Gary?!

So I guess it's Al, Mike and ED, also towards the end, repeating Fire in the Hole?

Hmmm, I'm gonna have to listen to it again since I dont remember "fire, smoke, flames" at all during the fade out, nor do I recall backing vocals there either.

I know in addition to the Scripture I posted before, Gary says a couple other lines traced back to the Bible:

"Bright is the forest set by a small flame, like a tongue on fire no one can tame"

Definitely Gary. No backing vocals during that part. Always loved Ed's guitar at the end of that tune.

Isn't there a part where a voice says 'Mike, you should do this' or something at the start of the outro?

[Dave's Dreidel]

Since I have probably never listened to the entire song, no clue.

Oh yeah I completely forgot about the CB voices there. Pretty sure that is Gary, Ed, and Mike talking back n forth. That outro is pretty badass. Ed's guitar sounds so awesome and mean.

That ending part live was awesome!

[DFVH5150]

I always thought it was Mike saying "We got fire in the hole" and Ed or Al said "Mike! You shouldn't do that"! Sounds like something he'd do.

[VHKC1984]

That's what I meant. Sounds like someone saying "We gotta fire in the hole" at the end with numerous other "fire in the hole" references.

It's Gary at the end and a bit which sounds like Ed talking. I actually didn't want the song to stop at the end I liked where it was headed I wanted them to keep jamming.

I wish the video for this was in higher quality on Youtube. I never got to see this on MTV back in the day and the music video wasn't on the DVD or Blu-ray of Lethal Weapon 4.

Gary acts like he has had to much espresso in the video but that's Gary. It's a good video though just wish there was a higher quality version out there and the Once video.

I have the Van Halen DVD greatest hits with Without You video and that's high quality.

Forgot about that live ending. Pretty cool!!

[Bad to the Bone]

the lyrics at the very end, the part that starts with "rudder of ship which sets the course", was that a bible verse? I remember hearing that a long time ago but never followed up on it
