Last show of theirs I went to, he mentioned that he hasn't been able to hit some of the high notes recorded on the Everglow - a truly disappointing turn of events - comes with age I suppose.
In my opinion these are Mae's best songs. I don't know why they would save them for encore. The Everglow is by far the best album don't really like the new one all too much but it is still okay. Amaezing band hahahhaa
I hate it when the singer never sounds the same live as he does on the albums. If you can't sing it in the first place then don't edit your voice for the album!!! I love Mae but this video was horrible with the vocals. Other than that it's an awesome song.
What loudness? It's quiet keyboard in the background, in a relatively small venue with tons of speakers.
Plus, you can just tell there's voice modification on the album version. You can hear it slide down to pitches.
Not to hate on the guy, or anything, but he needs some voice coaching or something. He has a good-sounding voice for singing, but unfortunately he doesn't know how to use it.
you also have to put into play that- this was atleast 2 years ago, i saw mae in march. and though his voice was still not to my expectations, he has gotten alot better from where he was. i have the everglow deluxe edition, and on that has live performance, and it sounds terrible. he has gotten better since then
agreed. this is quite possibly the best song that i've ever heard.
his voice is going flat, though. sounds like he's losing it. *shrugs* happens to everyone, i guess. it's closer than some bands i've heard. that's for sure.
Yeah, but have you ever played a show? After you play a full set it's pretty easy to lose your voice and thus go flat, sharp or just straight up suck.
I think it's pretty awesome for being the last two songs of the show.
A -mae-zing as always.

I think this is a really good performance.
some of the notes sound a bit flat, but what do you expect after such a long set, and then an encore.
loved this.
:]

its a 2 song encore after a 10 song set? i would be pretty tired from that. so who are you people to say that he needs voice lessons and shit
NismoRacer14 3 years ago
I thought this was an awesome performance actually. First off he's probably exausted since it's the encore.

Dave can sing, listen to an acoustic set. You gotta realise the loudness of it all affects your ability to hear yourself.
