Some obvious ones like The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again, Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song. I'm gonna go with a more contemporary artist (starting at the 2:00 mark):



Whatever fits your definition of a scream is fine. Whaddya got?

I'm not going to repost Donnie Iris doing Ah Leah at age 73 since y'all deemed it too painful last time...

Tough call as I can think of three right away, but I'll go with Joe Cocker on Little Help because he's just out of control the whole way.

Do you need anybody?

Stay tuned for my companion thread, Best Film Screams! Janet Leigh FTW!

Best Scream films?

I'll take Scream I. Set the tone for all the others.

I don't know if it's a scream or what it is but Steven Tyler's "outburst" in Aerosmith's Dude Looks Like a Lady always makes me laugh. At about the 4:00 mark in this video.

Hard to beat 80's hair metal for rock and roll screams (Sebastian Bach lept immediately to mind.).

Lots of screams in power ballads:

(Won't let me embed link to Steelheart's "I'll never let you go.")

At 70+ years old, Hagar can't hit the high notes anymore, but he had range in 1985-86. When he sings "Dreams" nowadays it's acoustic and an octave or three lower.
