It's Too Funky in Here!!!
People who've heard me know I am by no means a good singer or singing expert, but...
I think my overall opinion is it would improve and sound a lot better throughout using chest-voice vs head-voice or throat-voice. YMMV.

Seriously comparing apples to oranges at this point, but...
here is an example of what I alluded to above, in vocal technique.

Thanks for your input. Unfortunately, I have already tried to "Steve Perry" my vocals, using chest voice and I just dont have the voicebox to do it..I'd love to see a real singer record this tho.

I seriously understand, as I am much the same way, but...
there are sometimes gains to be made just thru practice and sheer determination.
There are higher or more outwardly forthright, over-the-top vocals that I could not pull off at first, but managed eventually after many, many retakes.
There are many cases of me standing on my toes and reaching for the cieling in order to nail the highest parts.
I am by no means a vocalist, but I have many cases in which I've hit the mark or increased my range, just by working it.
A lot of it is in the breathing, and vocal chords have limits but can be trained.
(As an asthmatic and former smoker, I typically don't have the wind to pull off really great vocals).
There's certainly reason to know there is only one Steve Perry, Paul McCartney, David Bowie, etc.

You need a lot of work on your voice - keep practicing.
