The song as performed last night is a pale shadow of it's former self..she didn't even bother to wear a cape or shawl and it was so truncated.I refuse to call you know what a birthday cake.

Honestly, I don't think that she is choosing to not add those nuances with her voice. Your voice changes as you get older, I think it becomes increasingly harder to have those nuances with age. The mid range between a whisper and a soft note becomes increasingly harder to hit. I think she has issues with either something comes out that is too soft and it breaks up, which results in her needing to put more power behind it. This quickly makes softer notes a lot harder to achieve. I've noticed this with both Paul Simon and McCartney over the past decade. Their voices just don't flex the way they used to. It's either 20% or 110% full power.

Yeah but he sounds like an old hound dog croaking out it's final bark alot of the time when singing live.

What he does for 2 hours while holding a guitar, I could not do for 20 minutes. In fact, I could hardly climb the stairs to leave the venue after the show. I think weed and cocaine must be healthier than all the bread, pasta and other carbs I have consumed over my life span, judging from his continued vigor. Michele

Expands the mind & relaxes the body. (as well as rids the body of all those age related aches & pains that keeps one from doing physical activity. You know, the "medicinal quality" of said herbal remedy)

Certainly not. I bet he also worked his socks off in the last month to produce this show. Provided all the prerecorded bits to fit in the livemix, and rehearsed with the backingband. And then propell the whole 2 hours 15 on the night self, singing and playing his heart out. Amazing.

Lindsey really was showing his age with this song... very old man-ish. His blistering guitar work during the bridge and outtro on the Tusk and Mirage tours were a staple of the song. The guitar work on this song last night was really, really lazy and kind of ruined the song for me. I'm only hoping that I complain about this during the first leg of the tour. They haven't played this in 30 years so we should expect some cobwebs. Maybe in a couple of months he'll figure it out and melt some faces like the old days! |

From what I can tell I like it, I don't consider it a mistake that they dusted it off. Even if Stevie didn't abuse her voice in the past it would never sound the same as it used to, I'm okay with that. Nothing stays the same, everything changes, and it won't ruin the song's legend for me to have it toned down now.
But I agree that the arrangement could be a little punchier. Let's see if it evolves over the tour (and happens to be perfect by the time they, oh, roll around to my neck of the woods). |
