Agreed! And her performance of SYLM at the outset of the show is terrific, too.

Re: the demos and early takes: I actually like the earlier takes of a Never Forget and Think About Me--they sound warmer and more womanly, like Over My Head. Think About Me, in particular is a jewel because we get to hear her without the double-tracking and Lindsey hogging the second half of the song.

i didn't listen to these "new" versions yet but i LOVE the version where he's hogging the second half of the song!! (was that the alternate released on 2004 tusk 2cd?) i was missing more of that hogging/his screaming "baby once in a while" etc on Aus/NZ live versions from this tour.

So, was I. I was hoping he would get more into it, as the tour went on. I want him to go a little wild demanding that he be thought about, while Christine pleads in contrast.

I love how they can interchange the vocals with each other. They have a chemistry in the band that's unmatched even by B/N. It has to do a lot with the fact that they're both players and love to play with vocals.

And it's funny how Lindsey remarked that he and Stevie are both nasal and Christine has more of a honey tone, yet when Christine and Lindsey mingle their voices, you can't tell where one ends and the other begins.

Stevie had mentioned that if you speed Lindsey up or slow her voice down, they sound alike, but with Lindsey and Christine, if you intermingle them, they meld together, as if speaking from the same psyche.
