@bawinunsang It's a reverb (echo) effect on the mic, not auto-tune. But I agree that it's unnecessary since Isaac's voice is amazing raw. PBS Soundstage does that with all musicians.
I am overwhelmed by so many emotions right now, most of them, somewhat contradicting, which only amazes me more; I don't understand how one song can make me feel so many different emotions, all at once.
I heard this song for the first time a little over a year ago, and words can't describe how much this one single, simple song has changed my life. It easily became my favorite song to ever listen to, I wrote out all of the lyrics in big letters and put the whole song on my wall... just to remind me whenever I'm angry or sad that happiness will come back, it will come home.
@eghustla yeah I noticed that to. It's either because of the echo effect or theres a tad of auto tune going on. I'm pretty sure its auto tune but ya gotta remember they had been on tour a very long time at this point as he said so his voice was probably really lacking. Hence auto tune.
Agree, very Sigur Rós-ish at the climax end with cymbals going bananas. Reminds of song-endings like Popplagid and Ný Batteri. But that in itself is a symbol of major quality. This song gives me the chills, in a good way. It is sentimental and melancholic, yet uplifting and good for the soul. Absolutely one of the best songs I've heard in a long time! And if you've read some of Fyodor Dostoyevskiys work and quotes - this makes perfect sense
Love this performance!! Quite possibly my favorite liver version of this song! There's no auto-tune involved. You can tell because there are a couple pitchy spots. For example, at 6:10 when he says, "home," he is noticably sharp, but he slides down to the right note.
there is a slight auto-tune used on his voice. which is understandable because he was on tour, and you can really strain your voice with too much singing.
I was luck enough to record this concert on my DVR in HD. If you like the Fray and ever get a chance to record or buy this. Do yourself a favor and do it.
♥The Fray is such an amazing group. Not ONLY do they sing, they motivate people all around the world to live for the best. Without the poetry they turn into beautiful songs, I wouldnt be who I am today. Thank you, Isaac Slade eccspecially♥. :)
ending was amazing.
