As a new close-up fades in on the 2 of them from behind, you can tell they're both singing the chorus, "sara." Another good example, the clip after the piano intro that starts with the close-up of Mick and then zooming out to a full shot of the entire stage is actually the footage before "Hold on, the night is coming..." If you sync up the actual audio to these parts, you can get it to work. I did this in my complete boredom, yet curiousity, years ago.

Cool, Joe!

Out of all the performances I've ever heard of that song, that one is still the best. There are others that come close (Japan, Cleveland). But she just seemed to melt into that song. Most likely, fueled for the cameras and the newness of the song.

Oh come on. The performance that's on film officially just happens to be the best? Fans always say that. I mean, what about performances from Providence (Nov. 22), Los Angeles (Dec. 10), etc., plus all those great performances on the Mirage tour?

On the FM Live version, you can actually hear the "ghost" of the original vocal at certain quiet parts.

Hmm... cool. I can hear the opening stanza as well as the "All I ever wanted" at the end, & those are both legit.

I like the version on the video with the reverbed Lindsey mic. They must have done that in postproduction. It was a nice touch.

Have you compared the film of "Angel" with the soundboard of it?
The question about "Sara"--which is the most blatant rerecord of lead vocal on the entire Live album--is WHEN did she do this? She obviously had some sort of bronchial situation going on, recovering from a chest cold. But I saw her play with John Stewart after the Tusk tour ended, very shortly before the Live album was released, & she weren't sick or singing differently. So I believe she must have done the "Sara" rerecord during some break on the Tusk tour, like July. Maybe she got a summer cold in Los Angeles. We need these questions solved! Ask Stevie & Christine's Q&A are worthless.
