Watch this guy totally go crazy sampling his voice and over dubbing!

i like the flow and the rythm and what it could be..but i can not totally enjoy it as he is often totally not in tune..

[lorddarksol]

How can he not be in tune when he's overdubbing his own voice?

[TheNoCoincidence]

hmm i dont know how to say it in english....i mean: dont u hear that the harmony is not right often?

[lorddarksol]

Yeah, there's some dissonance in there, but I think that's due to him mixing the song live, which adds to the character of the song some.

[misstrejo]

a man in love with his voice

[lorddarksol]

And he does an amazing job with it.

i miss this side of lidell. terribly.

he's got an amazing voice and undeniable talent as a white-boy soul singer, but here he pretty much had his own niche. i guess he was harder to market this way.

[Andrew Holland]

This is the best youtube music clip i have ever seen ... Lidell is unbelievably talented.

[Kevin Murrell]

definitely. but it does seem like he's gotten back in touch with his weird side. a new super_collider record would be fantastic.

[George Chidiac]

i don't know how he remembered every bit, i have trouble remembering my own guitar riffs.

Completely nuts, but in a good way :)

seriously, Jamie Lidell is one hell of a multi-talented artist and amazing in everything he does! no doubt he's in his element and doing an awesome job here but it's thanks to JIM that I got to know him and that! so for me, it's no "sell-out" or something like that. they're just other sides of him he likes to show and do. and if that brings him new followers who'll discover THIS, the better!

[Natalie Womack]

i agree with you. apparently people are too desensitized by recordings and don't understand what live is. imperfections are naturally a part of the live experience. Jamie's performance here was amazing and creative. Sometimes recordings don't provide that and live music needs to be appreciated for what it is outside of recordings.

[vilexom]

He's like if Christian Bale and Sam Rockwell had a baby.

[icanwaitanotherday]

Very freaky!

What Jamie does on stage is risky business. Anyone who can compete, I'm still waiting or their first album. I hope one day Super Collider does another album. Keep it WEIRD LIDELL!!!
