    Default "To Give" - new cover song live

    Now we just wait for some live video!

    I don't need more ammunition
    I've got more than I can spend
    I don't dwell on things I'm missing
    I'm just pleased
    With the things I've found

    Musically it's an ambitious song! I bet he sings it beautifully. And it answers people fears about retirement, don't you think?

    I've read elsewhere that venues are strict on video phones in Japan, which good because your view isn't obscured by hundreds of glowing screens, but a shame because we might not get to see this... Hopefully someone captured it and will post it online.

    I'd rather him sing "Work Is Four Letter Word" by Cilla Black than this garbage.

    I doubt Mozzer's version even touches the hem of Burly Chassis's dress but then I'm probably biased.

    Hmm..
    For some reason I just envision a bloated, sweaty Elvis with his eyelids clenched half in passion and the other half in diabetes. It just sounds to me like he's trying to make this a cliched swansong for himself, and it's only ever gonna sound tacky if it's done with fake strings. If he wants to record a definitive showstopper - his personal "My Way" - then he's going to have to go all out.

    But, maybe I have to listen to this a few more times to better digest it.
    He does a good job singing it, and it is a surprisingly excellent recording.
    Thank you for providing it.

    His voice sounds fine on this; it's just that the band is so paint-by-numbers. He really needs some finesse out of his band, but I'm not sure they can deliver.

    Perfect. I love the way his voice breaks when he switches registers, or I guess it's called octaves in singing. I love it. (Better than Frankie Valli. )

    Better than frankie valli you say, what a surprise. You'd say a cover of the birdie song sang through a megaphone was the greatest song ever performed if moz did it!
