Michael Stipe / Dashboard Confenssional ( Hands Down )

[Robogabriel]

I gotta be honest, I have a soft spot for a lot of emo bands, especially Dashboard Confessional, but I have a hard time getting past the nasal, out-of-range singing most of them have. Michael Stipe, despite mumbling most of REM's early stuff, actually annunciates well and has a deep, textured voice that really suits this song. Makes me wonder if emo music would have a better reputation if the bands singers were better.

~sigh. I remember when MTV was an honest to god place for music videos and music related programming. Not Viva La Bam and crappy movies from the 90's. I remember being really annoyed that I missed the first 4 or 5 airings of this broadcast

[dcfcinla]

and in the concrete dawn

we ran hand in hand

furious pacings

saturated

with frustration.

but there in sunshine

a certain trembling

which was Love

or an earthquake.

Great song. I wish there was an all-Michael version out there. His voice is the best. The way he finishes the song. Amazing!

fuck, i can't download it, but it's sooo great!! :(

[rossmorris]

i saw this video a couple of years ago, and then couldnt find it, then forgot about it... glad i stumbled across it again :)

Ya. As a general rule I'm not a huge Dashboard fan, but Michael has pretty much re-invented this song. I think he's just such a cool guy that he could sing anything and it would be good.

[remrule]

wow such an incredible version of the song stipe puts so much emotion into the song hes such a legend in my opinion its better than the orginal

[Primusbass11]

This is fantastic, I wish the song was recorded with Michael Stipe

[IzzyJG99]
