I've seen him in concert multiple times and he does wear out near the end like anyone would. From what I can tell this seems to be an encore. Anyway, we all know that Neil is not a "classically trained" vocalist, so taking that into consideration he is amazing! Actually, he's amazing regardless of his training!! Love you Neil!
I really liked your channel and this video. If you need any help getting this video exposed I use a site called tubeviews.(net) It has really helped like 20 of my main videos get to the top in position. Its nice.
He went out there.. and gave it his best.. and knowing that.. Im happy to have experienced that. Some people are not as fortunate to say they have witnessed this amazing artist. We all have good days and bad days. And can I just say.. I looked at some of the other videos on here... and these girls are amazing too! Keep up the smiles girls!
I don't get how all of you can say this about Neil. He should not have gone on with this show, knowing how his voice was. It's almost arrogant to think that he could still do the show. As a fan, I would completely understand postponing the show until he could perform better. He wasn't just a little raspy; he was downright awful. It was still great seeing him for the first time, but it was very disappointing at the same time.
This tune was the final encore, by which time he was quite warmed up and sounded BETTER than he did for most of the show, believe it or not. The first half was quite painful for him and the audience. While he is the consummate professional, an incredible songwriter and a great talent, it's too bad nobody in the audience knew he was sick. The band was amazing, BTW. Props to Neil for admitting his error in going on that night. Can't wait to have him back in C'bus -- in good voice next time.
He does sound horrible on here. This performance is a lot worse than being a little horse, his voice is bad in this video. He is doing the right thing by scheduling a free show.
Well, this IS a video, and the way the person videotaping is positioned, it could be just the audio that sounds bad, not Neil. His voice is raspy, but NOT all that bad!

I have seen him live and he doesn't sound like that. I know he sounds slightly raspy normally, but he sounds plain old bad in this video and he knows it, it's too bad you don't.
I thought he did a great job! I saw him last month and his voice always sounds like he is a little hoarse, to me that is just the uniqueness of his voice. Also, he has been doing A LOT of touring, so it is to be expected.
Even though he was very ill, Neil made a valiant effort to give his fans what they came for...his wonderful music. I commend him, and thank him for his courage and his dedication to his fans. He certainly lives up to the phrase, "The Show Must Go On"...he is the epitome of professionalism...Get well soon Neil!!
