Jon sounded shit on Something To Believe In in 2003 and had to alter a few lines of the song in order to get the words out of his mouth without sounding like a strangled cat.

They've never pulled of a version of Something For The Pain either that worked, and there's no way the Jon can do the verses of Fear properly, let alone the chorusses.

I agree that they should play a few more songs from the nineties, but there aren't that many hits he can still sing in the original key. In These Arms is downtuned 1,5 key compared to the studio version, and Jon still is incapable of singing it like it's done on the record. The chances of getting the "baaaaaaaaaaaaby" like on the chorus are second to none.

Not that many people now this but when the band plays Never Say Goodbye live nowadays, the band does it in E, instead of C. That's a lot of downtuning.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan
