Default Jon's best post-2011 vocal performances

Since there's already a "Jon's best post-OWN tour vocal performances" thread and the poor guy's voice has gone drastically downhill after the Circle/Greatest Hits tour, I'd like to ask you what do you think are among Jon's most impressive post-2011 vocal moments.

I'll start with a pretty solid version of These Days from Milan 2013:

Jon nailed most of the song quite well there - even the "Ain't nobody left..." at the end sounded tolerable.

Always sounded phenomenal (for post-'11 standards) in Birmingham '13:

At the same show, the guys actually performed one of the best live versions of Happy Now I've come to hear yet. Around 1:57 (in the video) Jon even took the mic off the stand and belted out the "everybody's just tryin' to find a way home" with that legendary raspy voice of his that we all love so dearly. It actually gave me goosebumps on the first time I saw the clip, and sometimes still does - it always reminds me of the version of Love's The Only Rule from LA '10 where he fell on his knees and screamed the "I'm gonna fly..." with that same kind of a voice at the start of the last chorus:

And here's the version of Happy Now I was talking about:
