I don't think people realise that playing guitar, especially energetically on stage takes your breathe away. To sing whilst out of breathe is a bit hard, try running and talking at the same time for an hour and see for yourself. Incredible performance by Tom here though!
As someone in the recording industry I can say with 100% certainty that this recording, and all of the Guitar Center and the Red Bull performances for that matter, have TONS of post-production. What that means is that while this is a live performance it was recorded using Pro-tools and then the audio was edited and then synced together with the video. This is how all big budget live performances work. Angels and Airwaves, like most other pop/rock bands, definitely plays to a click track because they use backing tracks for the auxiliary parts such as keys and pianos and string parts and all the other ambient sounds you hear. Because they played to a click it makes the post-pro editing in a Pro-tools session extremely easy and effective. I am sure they added compression, reverb, delay, and remixed all the tracks. They also without a doubt used Melodyne to tune Tom's vocals. This is different than Auto-tune because it allows the producer to tune certain notes and fix parts of the overall performance while leaving the natural inflections in place. Welcome to the 21st century music business.
+Christopher Morrison If they use a click track then they obviously don't play that well along with it. I hear so many tempo fluctuations (not necessarily in this performance but in many others i have seen they do). maybe they do just for big name productions like this.
I love how Tom acts as if he's on some kind of hallucinagenic when he plays live with AVA but he's a total comedian on stage with Mark when he plays with Blink.
In a way, I'm glad that Tom left Blink. He clearly wasn't enjoying it near the end, but you can tell how much more he cares about AVA, he actually tries to sing and put on a good performance, so I'm so glad that he's still doing what he loves. As long as he's happy, no one can moan about it.
This is their best live video I've seen! I think that Tom should always sing the song just that way! It was very much different than the album track but it was not too much different & he wasn't trying to get into his falsetto too much which somtimes makes his voice go out. He found his niche on this live version! Hells yeah!
Still think this is the best ever performance of everything’s magic and I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since I started listening to angels&airwaves
For me tom's best performance is when they perform i miss you on pepsi smash damn he sounf 100% accurate on his singing tone i hope he does that all the time but it happend 1 time only
I'd say this is probably my favourite Tom Delonge performance ever, he sounds amazing, (and we all know what happened to his voice about 3 years later) and he still keeps his humour through AVA
He sings so well here. Awesome :) I need to get to one of their concerts. VERY Soon. Who here's excited for their new album? I just know it's going to be so... EPICALLY amazing.
This just proves Tom doesn’t need a guitar to be a good singer because his voice alone is amazing this is a fantastic performance of everything’s magic
I love how this is Atom's chance to shine in the drum off, so Tom decides that this willl be the show that he sings his greatest and takes all the attention away from Atom. I love you Tom!
im on that monthly blink 182, angels and airwaves, +44 and box car racer, live, music video and lyric video 2am streak again.
Pat Thomas You too eh? Yeah happens every 5-6months hence the comment
same. 😂 see you here in a couple of months.
Same
Sameeeeee
Lol it's legit 2AM same
Tbh vocally wise this is the best singing i've heard Tom do live in a very long time
+peter barnes Oooh! Yes it is!
with pitch correction though.
true
+Tom Delonge there is non. Look at the war. That's not very good vocals wise. I think he's just worse when he has to play guitar
peter barnes autotune af
Easily the best performance by Tom Delonge ever. Besides the awkward dancing. Love it all the same haha.
It is obviously tuned afterwards. You can hear it as fuck...
+Marc Eichner it wasn't smh 😂
I like the dancing haha
+Marc Eichner Better than you probally
Suface OuterSpace Actually no...
drums sound so damn powerful
Nathan Hollow I mean it was the Guitar Center Drum Off
it was also atom
Acrylic drum shells
They sounded great
This is the best he ever sounded
because they used pitch correct on the video lol, Tom cannot sing live he needs to rely on computers
in any band even :/
+Evan Frazier This doesn't sound like it needed computers
+Donnie1428 Indeed mate
+Evan Frazier they didnt, I was there he sounded just like that
Tom's greatest vocal performance ever!
2006 the adventure live my friend is so much better.
Tom has no idea what to do on stage without his guitar 😂
Nobody:
Tom: Does best Bono impersonation.
Hahahahaa
i was thinking the same tging
Like #333
Feel the music I guess 😂😂
I come back and watch this every once in a while. He sounds so good here.
adam hammering those drums... man he was really the beating heart of ava.
Tom can actually sing when he tries...When he sings 'alone' at about 29 seconds it sends a shiver down my spine for some reason... !
His voice is so good here
I don't think people realise that playing guitar, especially energetically on stage takes your breathe away. To sing whilst out of breathe is a bit hard, try running and talking at the same time for an hour and see for yourself.
Incredible performance by Tom here though!
2:17 - can somebody explain to me why did Tom show everyone a finger? :D

Christopher Morrison I would love to buy you a beer and pick your brain for more knowledge

who cares? it sounds good.
+Christopher Morrison tru. as much as i love this band, there is no way in hell tom can give a live performance like this.
Idc I still think tom sounds great without all of this.
Tom is so fucking majestic
mhm...
I love how Tom acts as if he's on some kind of hallucinagenic when he plays live with AVA but he's a total comedian on stage with Mark when he plays with Blink.
Best performance I've seen from Tom so far
I know there pitch correction but Toms performance here, was so good. The energy was on point, he really had a blast.
Look at all the people enjoying an awesome show… this is right before the iPhone changed this experience forever
yep :/
2024 here and I think this is one of the best songs Tom has ever written.
His vocals at 3:18 are incredible
Jonathan Person fuck yeah. His vocals sound really good when he sings with a distorted tone. 🤘🏼
Fuck yeah
Eargasm
That's his Blink-182 voice
Amazing sound and his voice sounds spot on here.
In a way, I'm glad that Tom left Blink. He clearly wasn't enjoying it near the end, but you can tell how much more he cares about AVA, he actually tries to sing and put on a good performance, so I'm so glad that he's still doing what he loves. As long as he's happy, no one can moan about it.
now hes back! and there better then ever!
This is my favourite ever performance of Everything's Magic I really love Tom's incredible vocals and the band are fantastic
Muito Bom ☆ A Voz dele está ótima!!!! Eu gostaria de ver esse show completo ♡

Amazing!! I love this song and Tom sounds incredible!
i very like This song!! He sounds so good here. Love AVA
This is their best live video I've seen! I think that Tom should always sing the song just that way! It was very much different than the album track but it was not too much different & he wasn't trying to get into his falsetto too much which somtimes makes his voice go out. He found his niche on this live version! Hells yeah!
I love that the only time Tom looks "normal" and "comfortable" is when he puts the bra on his face like a blindfold. Love this guy. :)
i absolutely l)ve toms vocals here omg
Still think this is the best ever performance of everything’s magic and I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since I started listening to angels&airwaves
this is incredibile
love you Tom, u're a pretty cool guy
Angels and Airwaves are probably the best live show i've ever seen :D
Wow... I don't think I've ever heard Tom sing this good! Amazing

I love Atom and his hair its so badass
For me is one of the best presentations from AVA
tom dances like the dad from south park that kept slapping his kid when they wouldnt sing
+Monkeyz73 hahahahaha

Lol “we love you Randy!!”
This is the most accurate comparison i've ever seen

Oh God! That version sounded AWESOME! 1:16 HOLY S***

This man...words just cannot describe. If I believed in a God, he would be God himself.
One of their bests live performances.
Reach out your hand and I'll make you mine at 1:29 is shiver worthy. So amazing.
The one at 2:44 is better or just as good

I'd say this is probably my favourite Tom Delonge performance ever, he sounds amazing, (and we all know what happened to his voice about 3 years later) and he still keeps his humour through AVA
He sings so well here. Awesome :) I need to get to one of their concerts. VERY Soon. Who here's excited for their new album? I just know it's going to be so... EPICALLY amazing.
