Sure it's not perfect, and nowhere near as good as it probably was in '95/'96, but I still think it's a good performance. The video got pulled from youtube recently though.

That version is available on bj.com -- look for Minneapolis Highlights under Countdown to 2004 on the video page. I just watched it this morning, and I think it was the second of 3 songs in that video.

I really didnt enjoy watching the first link posted, 2nd was a bit better.
I dont think ive heard JBJ's voice be so bad.
My favourite time of Jon singing this song was in Japan on the These Days tour, the one thats on the OWN Live album

Just put it at 03:03.

Poor Jon, you can see clearly in his face the feeling that he was passing by at the moment. It was really hard for him.


I never saw that video... and since now i'll never complain about his voice and set list again.

I am pretty shocked as I hadn't heard this perfomance before - it really hurts my ears. On the other hand - it's a hard song to sing though.

He knows he's vocally poorer now. You can tell when he's steeling himself for a high note.

Yeah that first link is reallllllly hurting jon, im surprised he actually went for some of those notes that night..
the other 2 links are much better but that was still almost 7years ago. jon wont attempt to sing that song that high ever again

Anyway, that is a great compilation

A little off-topic question about this album. I recieved the following answer about Tokyo Road from allexperts.com. They sometimes have some new information for me and overall it's accurate, but I'm having doubts about this one:
"There were no new tracks on the CD - only a remixed Blood On Blood (with loads of keyboards!) and a bonus 4 track live CD with limited editions."

Anyone who can verify this? I compared the Tokyo Road version with a remaster version but I didn't hear the differences.

All songs on Tokyo Road were remastered again, and sound different compared to the songs on the regular remaster series. However, there's no such thing as a Blood On Blood with loads of keyboards.

poor Jon...
guess he REALLY can't hit those high notes anymore.

does he still smoke? that may be why! had one too many before the show.

How does Richie make those sounds with his guitar on the riff? Is it controlled feedback or some cleverly executed harmonic?

As far as ive heard, yes he still does.
Sad really, as a vocalist he shouldn't be, because that just wrecks his voice, as shown
