  1. They have done a lot of shows and Im impressed how good his voice is due to how many shows they have done. Beside a few shows his voice have been so smooth and clean!
    Would be nice if we all could post a highlights from this tour!

    Here is mine:
    Streets havent been this good since Lovetown. 6:12 in this clip


    Take Me higher in 3:32


    Electric Coooooooooo in 5:08




    WOWY is now instressting again



    On Two three four he sounds so young.

  2. His voice is in good shape but I honestly think it was a bit better in 2010 and 2011.
  3. I remember he brought his parrot once, that was cool.
  4. The falsetto was better then, also he pushed his voice more on Bad, Desire...
    But his voice is superior in may ways compared to 2009-2011, it is much cleaner, smoother. He sounds younger, he "sing" better now.
    Pride, Streets and WOWY for example was pretty booring on Popmart, Elevation, Vetigo and 360 tour. They have got new life, he sing them so much better now.
  5. Agree on WOWY, it was brutally boring on past tours - it has a new life now. Pride and Streets... are pretty much the same. I agree that he's singing "better" in a way, not exactly like that: he's not straining his voice so much - he's 5 years older after all. So he has to take care of his throat a bit more as tours go by.
  6. Yeeaah partly disagree. He lets the audience take over the high note during WOWY and sometimes (big) portions of Beautiful Day and Pride because hiis voice can't take it so...
  7. The voice inevitably declines (just compare the first Amsterdam show or the Milan shows back in 2009 with the current shows), but the singing keeps getting better

    WOW, it truly sounds like Lovetown all over again!

    What show is that from?!


    (PS: Not my first post, BTW. I've been lurking here for ages, and I did post a few things a long time ago. Back in the road, I suppose. Happy to contribute whenever I can.)

    As I wrote before listen to the Street video baove in 6:10, he havent sound like that since the 80s on Street
  11. Yeah well I hate to disagree. Often he can't handle the In naaaame of love's or the oh-oh-oh's and is just standing there waving his arms as a request for the audience to help him. And it's definately not intended.

    But don't get me wrong, as I said "partly disagree". Some songs and notes are amazing, like the chorus of Iris or October. And your videos contain some good ones indeed. But it's just (much) less than he used to be, which is absolutely normal. With all the smoking and singing during decades it's even amazing he's still on this level.
