@ TotzthePlaid - thats right, good observation - made me laugh .. but Jonas is rarely off key, ... well, now I take that back, he was just a little off :) - theyre human too
Without the harmonies, the some of the singing sounds off-key. It isn't, really, but it's jarring to hear some of the odd melodic bits without a harmony vocal to balance it out.
@danielspital Almost ALL music involves harmonies. In the case of this song, he's singing the harmonies are created with the instruments, but said complex layered harmonies and harmonic chords don't come through in such a spare arrangement.
@TheNtisyadi Jonas has a naturally beautiful instrument - but I've seen a bunch of their live videos, and he definitely loses control in a LOT of them, leading to inconsistent pitch and tone. However, in my opinion, someone can be a technically bad singer, but still be a great singer - because the imperfections make the music more human, personal, raw, etc. But nobody should assert that he's a technically good singer, because he really isn't.

Well, I'm a Mew fan, but Jones is totally out of key in all live performances. Probably he's trying to sing in a key that is too high for him ...or he's not such a great singer ...but their records are impeccable an dthat's all that matters.
Wow. It's so weird. Whenever Jonas sings live his accent is REALLY STRONG (giving his singing a nice twang), but whenever he's recording studio versions his accent is gone completely!
Maybe when performing live he's concentrating more on his singing and his surroundings than having to work to get rid of the accent while singing? Hmm...
erm.. is it me or what? i turned the volume a bit loud and i can kinda hear the sounds that you hear on the beach. seriously. like waves and birds blabla.. are they in a house near the beach??
ooooohhh, I felt so sad at the beggining when Johan starts playing.... I'm still hoping he comes back in a couple of years.... Anyways, Jonas sings like no one else in the world, I love his voice sooo much......
this was the first live performance i'd heard by them (i heard it several months ago) and i was absolutely floored. I almost didn't expect Jonas to sing too well in real life as he does on the albums but damn was I proved wrong. Love Mew.
hi ..i am here again .singing this song that i love so much ...and well i was talking with a new girl by phone ...was amazing ahhhhh ...wish me luck jeje
NOW I COME BACK TO LISTEN AGAIN !!!!!!

@TotzthePlaid there are virtually no harmonies in the studio version of this song though. Only on the high pitched bit towards the end

I never meant to be the only one to notice that. I love Mew but like Radiohead I prefer them on studio album than live performances.
