Like hitting the high notes in BOB and Always, but struggling with the Prayer verses.

Could be due to different singing techniques he's learnt to apply, which could also be why his voice sometimes sounds thin and sometimes much fuller. Maybe he should use the technique he's learned to hit the higher notes for the whole of the songs, but maybe that wouldn't sound too great either...
This. I noticed it during the promo shows

He's doing different things during the "difficult" songs and not all of them work. Is almost as if he's trying desperately to hold on to a technique until he can't anymore and then improvises

It doesn't explain why he struggles with easy songs, specially on the verses
