      Blazing_Blaziken so maybe it wasn’t albums like “revolutions per minute” that got you into them and formulated your expectations? This performance is borderline crap compared to what I saw in 2006

    • @aWhimTested

      Blazing_Blaziken good backing vocals from Zach but the tempo and sporadic quality of the vocals... ends up just another live show with clueless fans living it because this genre is so loud live

      I was singing along in my car 2day and it was bad so I came here to see how well Tim, the singer sings this live and I'm surprised to see how bad he drops the ball on his own song! Its such a strange song bcuz it's almost like your breathing is in a different time signature than the song is. If that makes sense! Lol after seeing tim sing this live, it makes me feel 10,000X's better about my singing earlier today!

    • @xryguyx05
      @xryguyx05 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yep seems that way. A lot of rock vocalists use rasp in a very unhealthy way and they don't change it usually until it's too late for their vocal chords.

    • @WookashWackomy
      @WookashWackomy 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      You’re right but in the end this sound was his strength and if he started to sing in other way he wouldn’t...be himself.
      Same applies to other “punk/rock singers”. It’s their style, that’s what people want to hear from them, that’s how they want to sound themselves.
      That’s not a mystery that voice does wear out with time and after certain age it just gets worse and worse (especially if you sing loud, strong and not lightly, bluesy, pop style)

    • @xryguyx05
      @xryguyx05 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      What I'm saying is people shouldn't be surprised when a singer that uses a ton of rasp the wrong way sounds like shit in 10-15 years, since it ruins their vocal chords. If they want to have a long career they will have to learn to sing properly.

      Fortunately, from what I've seen, Tim is now taking care of his voice.
      Just listen to their "Escape Artists" cover, he has a different sound, most likely because he's now singing the right way instead of messing his voice up.

  • @kustomhooligans

    I only came here to see how well Tim sings this song live, bcuz I was singing along in my car 2day and the pre-chorus and chorus arent the easiest to sing. Hitting the notes is simple but it's weird bcuz your breathing is almost in a different time signature than the song is. If that makes sense!

    It kills me not to know this
    But I've all but just forgotten
    What the colour of her eyes were
    And her scars or how she got them
    As the telling signs of age rain down
    A single tear is dropping
    Through the valleys of an aging face
    That this world has forgotten
    There is no reconciliation
    That will put me in my place
    And there is no time like the present
    To drink these draining seconds
    But seldom do these words ring true
    When I'm constantly failing you
    Walls that we just can't break through
    Until we disappear
    So tell me now
    If this ain't love then how do we get out?
    'Cause I don't know
    That's when she said
    "I don't hate you boy
    I just want to save you
    While there's still something left to save"
    That's when I told her, "I love you girl
    But I'm not the answer
    For the questions that you still have"
    And the day pressed on like crushing weights
    For no man does it ever wait
    Like memories of dying days
    That deafen us like hurricanes
    Bathed in flames we held the brand
    Uncurled the fingers in your hand
    Pressed into the flesh like sand
    Now do you understand?
    So tell me now
    If this ain't love then how do we get out?
    'Cause I don't know
    That's when she said
    "I don't hate you boy
    I just want to save you
    While there's still something left to save"
    That's when I told her, "I love you girl
    But I'm not the answer
    For the questions that you still have"
    One thousand miles away
    There's nothing left to say
    But so much left that I don't know
    We never had a choice
    This world is too much noise
    It takes me under
    It takes me under once again
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you, no
    So tell me now
    If this ain't love then how do we get out?
    'Cause I don't know
    That's when she said
    "I don't hate you boy
    I just want to save you
    While there's still something left to save"
    That's when I told her, "I love you girl
    But I'm not the answer
    For the questions that you still have"
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you, no

      You're kidding right? It's not about some slight change in his voice, he just can't keep up or even hit the high notes properly. Seems like shitty singing technique that caught up with him. This kind of screaming can destroy your voice in no time if you're not singing properly.

    Damn this was uncomfortable to watch. It is not new to see Tim struggle singing live. But it is so bad here that he starts to speed up significantly, seemingly because he can't hold the notes, so he just rushes to move on,, and that gets the rest of the bad off, and it just keeps steam rolling downhill.
    It is the second most uncomfortable thing that I have seen from a band live. The worst was catching Puddle of Mud live on a side stage at a festival a few years back and the lead singer's voice went out on just the 3rd song of a 6 song set.

      Да умеет, послушай хотя бы студийную версию, но про видимому он так из-за старения (

    I’m sorry but this is so bad... Tim keeps singing ahead and it’s bugging the shit out of me. He needs to ditch the guitar and focus on singing... jeez...

    It kills me not to know this
    But I've all but just forgotten
    What the colour of her eyes were
    And her scars or how she got them
    As the telling signs of age rain down
    A single tear is dropping
    Through the valleys of an aging face
    That this world has forgotten
    There is no reconciliation
    That will put me in my place
    And there is no time like the present
    To drink these draining seconds
    But seldom do these words ring true
    When I'm constantly failing you
    Walls that we just can't break through
    Until we disappear
    So tell me now
    If this ain't love then how do we get out?
    'Cause I don't know
    That's when she said
    "I don't hate you boy
    I just want to save you
    While there's still something left to save"
    That's when I told her, "I love you girl
    But I'm not the answer
    For the questions that you still have"
    And the day pressed on like crushing weights
    For no man does it ever wait
    Like memories of dying days
    That deafen us like hurricanes
    Bathed in flames we held the brand
    Uncurled the fingers in your hand
    Pressed into the flesh like sand
    Now do you understand?
    So tell me now
    If this ain't love then how do we get out?
    'Cause I don't know
    That's when she said
    "I don't hate you boy
    I just want to save you
    While there's still something left to save"
    That's when I told her, "I love you girl
    But I'm not the answer
    For the questions that you still have"
    One thousand miles away
    There's nothing left to say
    But so much left that I don't know
    We never had a choice
    This world is too much noise
    It takes me under
    It takes me under once again
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you, no
    So tell me now
    If this ain't love then how do we get out?
    'Cause I don't know
    That's when she said
    "I don't hate you boy
    I just want to save you
    While there's still something left to save"
    That's when I told her, "I love you girl
    But I'm not the answer
    For the questions that you still have"
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you
    I don't hate you, no
