Couldn't even finish watching SuperTramp..... NO COMPARISON!! Roger knocks it out of the park!! SuperTramp was mechanical.... sooooooo boring!! Off to see Roger in Hinckley, MN tonite..... I AM PUMPED!!! It's gonna be GREAT!!!
Roger Hodgson worte the lyrics, knows what is being said and what he wants to say to the listener, while the singer/keyboardist for Supertramp without Roger is just singing the song. Its like and artist who painted the pricture and then the artist reproducing the picture for sale.
Love several of the music written by Roger and his messages in them.
There's definitely no contest. Hodgson radiates far more love for the music and joy of performing than does his "replacement", if I may use that word very loosely. That's the mark of a real entertainer. I haven't even been into Supertramp that long so it's not as if I'm a fanboy or anything, but it doesn't take a fanboy to tell that one performer knows how to breathe life into every note while the other is just giving a rushed, rote performance of a song he doesn't really "feel" anything for.
You....yes...you...need to re-listen to the lyrics to this song. Our following generation needs to hear it...and gain some ounce of understanding from it. I think I will have complete agreement on this post! It made a difference in my life...a really big one! From one song? Yep!
Well, if confused before, this makes it abundantly clear whose voice really shines, not to mention the guy wrote the song. Roger Hodgson all the way. The other guy honestly sounds like he just started singing. I'm really not discrediting him with that, I could just swear as someone who sings he's real green with the voice.
Ouch Ouch Ouch Owch Ouch!!! Why would the cross reference be needed!?! Do you really have to do this? We all know the passion, voice and genius of the REAL Supertramp! Obviously I didn't stay for the second half of this posted vid. Ouch!!!
This guy rubs me up all wrong... What an awkward performer. I can't watch. Not even in the same universe, let alone ball park as my old trusty friend, Roger!
From the very first chords of Supertramp's performance it's plain to see that something is lost... Mr. Roger Hogdson is a thousand times bettrer! Much more feeling, much more soul, much more everything! Supertramp is one of my favorite bands but I cannot avoid myself to tell that they are not even half of the band they were in their glory days... Long live ROGER HOGDSON!
“THE PERFECT QUESTION" ... The Perfect Sequel to "THE LOGICAL SONG!" ... FREE FULL VERSION LISTENED TO AT "GARY SHAW NAPSTER" and Purchase at "GARY SHAW ITUNES!"
oh and by the way the second clip is recorded with two yoghurt pots and a piece of string...fucking pointless post this and the question is pointless too...just listen to the music and shut the fuck up.
I must say I really enjoyed Roger's performance. There was so much life and soul in the voice... not that there was anything wrong with the other fellow's voice. Both were excellent performers. It was just that the difference in this video was like the difference between watching HD TV and looking at a picture in a book IMO.
Watching him then and now, I find my self wishing I could talk with him and ask him what he has learned in these years. I loved it then, I love it now. Great song. Great singer.
The footage is wonderful on the Roger & Orchestra and he's happy and involved like he always is at a great show... and the singer/keyboardist on the Supertramp video and everyone else involved is grim. distant and doing a job. No comparison... (If there's anything I can't stand it's when musicians act like they're doing a JOB... what the hell is the audience coming to FORGET... that they have JOBS!!)
My girlfriend and I, with her boss, went to see them in Montreal. There was no parking anywhere. But we found a spot in the back alleys. We floated out of the Forum and had to get the truck before they towed it away. For three days we worked in a trance selling software. logical...
Id say these 2 versions side by side i woild choose rodger hudsons, but what i always liked about this song was the blunt feeling after everyline whih might be what you mean by mechanical. I always enjoy my favorote rock songs in conerct form which was a plus but on anotber note i liked the styx sax solo better
If you google images of Rodger Hodgson its hard to find an image where he isnt smiling! he is my life idol, he has no bad relationship with anyone from what it seems and he is always smiling and has a great outlook on life! if he was president of the world there would be no war!
theres just some untouchable emotion that roger puts into the song when he sings it. It sounds more genuine but the current Supertramp doesnt match it. Theres just something magical about Roger, Rick, Dougie, John and Bob together and its gone now.
@Tsnore yes, he is 70% tramp, but without the Super, it truly isn't super.. why the f isnt John Helliwell playing his f'ing sax in any of these piece of #%^& solo pieces (and it is in pieces, compared to the original). It was the original that stayed on the top 10 charts in both the US, UK, and Canada for a month, not a Roger Hodgson solo performance...
@friedrichwiles exactly right...he may have wrote the lyrics but the tracks that went with all of those songs were a combination of the rest of the band...the arrangement would have come from all of them guitars sax bass...all to fuck now...and to be honest the song sounds almost the same when supertramp sang it without him..but it sounds shit here.
The second guy can sing the notes, but not the music. Second one was ok, but he sounds like he's either using the wrong breathing techniques or singing without any soul. Obviously, since it's Roger's song, he's going to sing it like he means it, because, well, he does. Rick Davies just needed a Hodgson proxy who had a high voice. Though the second singer (I wish I knew his name) is inferior, he's not terrible. The real question is how would we feel if we weren't comparing the two?
I have yet to see anyone come back and top their song 30 years later, eagles didn't, van halen nor any other 70's band. Roger you my friend have done it. You actually improved the song and made it so logical. Besides, who am I.
Roger Hodgson would defeat anyone on planet earth that tried to go head-to-head with him in a singing/talent competition using his songs or anyone else's. So this second guy who sang Roger's "Logical Song" is actually very, very talented. I bet if he wrote a song and sang it he would sound better than he does here being compared to the Master.
roger is amazing and obviously better than anyone trying to imitate him but theres 1 good thing about the second performance and that's john helliwell the only saxophonist that suits rogers songs imo. If john and roger toured together that would just be amazing.
Roger....no comparison from a stage presence point of view and especially from a musical perspective!!! give him a guitar, or keyboard, with his voice and talent he can keep up a 2 hr show without any problem!!! The guys of Supertramp, even if they have all the "trimmings" are lacking the turkey, sorry.....I also cannot believe how out of tune they are! quite annoying for my poor ears.....I was born in 1979 so never really appreciated them as a group but I know which one I would like to work wi
Roger's version is _definitely_ better! I heard it (the same orchestra clip) the other day and fell in love with this song all over again. IMHO his voice is better now than it was back in the '70s.
I could hardly hear the orchestra on the second version at times, and the singing wasn't nearly as good. BTW, which one _is_ Rick, anyway? Is he the older-looking guy playing bass?
Rick Davies is a good composer and musician but I hope that "Better Days" come, when he realizes it’s counter productive for his band to perform Roger’s songs. Mr. Davies shouldn't “rape this universe” (= Roger’s songs, rights and fans). Roger Hodgson cannot be replaced. All his songs performed by other people are only gray cover souvenirs of the original ones.
Without Roger Hodgson, Supertramp (i.e. Rick Davies) is simply a one-hit wonder. Roger should have been a solo act from the beginning. Then Supertramp could have opened for him during his European tours. It's amazing how Roger can so accurately reproduce his recordings during live performances, but Rick can never sound as good live on Goodbye Stranger as the recording. Not to mention Roger doing the lead guitar parts on the one. Rick uses Roger like Lamm uses Cetera to promote their tours.
Roger Hodgson is amazing. Having seen him recently, I was stunned at how great he sounds today. It was an amazing experience; he shared the history of his songs and played them from his heart. And Mr. MacDonald (who accompanied him) was incredible on all fourteen instruments he played at one point or another. Seeing him perform his songs and put on a brilliant and humble show made it clear that Supertramp is Roger Hodgson. Rick Davies should be grateful Roger Hodgson let him ride his coatails!!!
Dubbin this is amazing to see the Roger then Supertramp without him - what a difference. Sad for Supertramp. I love this song and the orchestra with Roger.
No comparison.

The second one is awful. I wonder what it is, but only Hodgson has it.

Rick Davies is a good composer and musician but I hope that "Better Days" come, when he realizes it’s counter productive for his band to perform Roger’s songs. Mr. Davies shouldn't “rape this universe” (= Roger’s songs, rights and fans). Roger Hodgson cannot be replaced. All his songs performed by other people are only gray cover souvenirs of the original ones.

Without Roger Hodgson, Supertramp (i.e. Rick Davies) is simply a one-hit wonder. Roger should have been a solo act from the beginning. Then Supertramp could have opened for him during his European tours. It's amazing how Roger can so accurately reproduce his recordings during live performances, but Rick can never sound as good live on Goodbye Stranger as the recording. Not to mention Roger doing the lead guitar parts on the one. Rick uses Roger like Lamm uses Cetera to promote their tours.

Roger Hodgson is amazing. Having seen him recently, I was stunned at how great he sounds today. It was an amazing experience; he shared the history of his songs and played them from his heart. And Mr. MacDonald (who accompanied him) was incredible on all fourteen instruments he played at one point or another. Seeing him perform his songs and put on a brilliant and humble show made it clear that Supertramp is Roger Hodgson. Rick Davies should be grateful Roger Hodgson let him ride his coatails!!!

Dubbin this is amazing to see the Roger then Supertramp without him - what a difference. Sad for Supertramp. I love this song and the orchestra with Roger.
