It is isn't it. The "She never really had a chance on that fateful moonlit night." is so beautiful. This song is the song for me that confirms James's vocal brilliance and diversity...

What do you think is Labrei's best live vocals, I was listening to the live songs on ACOS and his vocals are incredible compaired to Budokan and LSFNY.

I'm not really a fan of that song. It's OK as part of SFAM but on it's own it's not a song I ever want to listen to.

Live at the Marquee I'd say, although i think a lot of them were recorded again for the CD so it's not technically all live.
However his best live vocals have to be when I saw them last Monday/Tuesday :D

scenesfromatheater 10-29-2005 07:15 AM

It seems like he can't control his voice live anymore. When you listen to Live at the Marquee and Once In a Live Time he has an incredible powerful voice, but on Budokan and LSFNY and when I saw them in Wovlerhamton, he just can't sing that well. At some points it's painful to listen to it's that bad.

What?!?! In London he was on fire, his voice was incredible.

scenesfromatheater 10-29-2005 07:23 AM

He was good at Wolverhampton, but it's just that he can't sing as well as he used to. His best vocals were in Under a Glass Moon in Wolves, he got that high note real good. no TIME to dissapear.

I think he's alot better than most vocalist, the only vocalist I think can rival him is Daniel Gildenlow. I also think that he was awesome in London, a few 'sack-attacks'here and there but it's to be expected. 90% incredible is better than 100% good.

I like those stats I must say.:naughty:

If you watch LSFNY..is it me, or does JLB look alot like Meatloaf?

shamed-angel 10-29-2005 07:30 AM

All my friends say I look like Meatloaf.

Lord of Sword 10-29-2005 07:41 AM

i thought james was perfect on wednesday, besides the 2 majesty songs. i was right by the speakers on the right and the sound wasn't that great so maybe that affected it, but it was the best i've heard him singing live in years (judging from bootlegs/live dvds).
on budokan on the higher or louder parts he just seems to shout the words, not caring about the pitch or anything. last week though he was even adding in high notes where before he'd have just sung an octave lower.

I totally agree. Although I've only seen them on this tour and the [i]Train Of Thought[/i] tour, I was more impressed with his voice this time round; I can't think of any faults he made and he put alot of energy into his performance.

Yes but at least he doesn't have heart attacks on stage.

shamed-angel 10-29-2005 08:56 AM

And Meatloaf is past it. James and DT are no-where near done.

Is Octavarium going to be DT's last album? If it is, it better not be there last tour.

shamed-angel 10-29-2005 09:04 AM

Not at all. In the programme, James Labrie says,
"It's hard to believe it's been 20 years, it feels like we're just getting into a real cool place abd groove. Here's to many more years of new music and tours. See you there."
I seriously doubt I'd survive them breaking up :upset:

Cool, I was getting worried if it was their last tour or not. I hope they do a tour of different albums, cause I wanna see them play SFAM all the way through...that would be ultimate.

shamed-angel 10-29-2005 09:10 AM

That was amazing. Sorry. But I had to say!

scenesfromatheater 10-29-2005 09:42 AM

I'm starting to get into Awake now, Voices, The Mirror and Lie are class. I just can't see myself thinking it's better than I&W.

He damaged his vocal chords and stopped taking care of himself for a while. (hence the looking like Meatloaf in LSFNY) Recently (the past couple years) he's been training with a vocal coach and taking care of himself, hence looking and sounding much better at Budokan than LSFNY. Apparently, at I think the London gig, he even hit the high F# in Learning to Live, so he's getting back to where he was.

Yeah, that was amazing. He doesn't even attempt it on LSFNY.

I love that note in "learning to LIVE!"
It's an excellent song all round...

Yep, probably my favourite DT song.

You barely ever see him without a bass, on one of the DVDs it shows everyone on the tour bus just relaxing, and John's there playing his bass.
