That mid-range of his is by far his weakest point, at songs like Bed of Roses he sounds much better in comparison. Even back in 2013 in Munich I though his voice was gonna blow out during the verses of Who Says and Born To Follow. He adds them because he thinks they are timeless and universal.  |
It's not a misconception. Those songs are in a more comfortable range for him. He sounds like shit on them, but he doesn't have to strain to sing them. Him screaming through songs like Always or These Days is an absolute train wreck. Without filler songs like Born to Follow, LH, etc, he'd never be able to get though a two hour show anymore.
BOR is an anomaly. It's the only more challenging song that he actually still performs well.
