James Bond Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 12 hours ago, Lucky girl said: The visual has chenged (normal for everyone) The voice i didnt notice big changes My prefer SLB style´s are 93 and 98 years I find that from about 1998 to 2001 there was a marked change in Simon's voice. I think the writer's block and John Taylor leaving the band really got to him. There's a more melancholy vibe to his voice and those are the only years I can listen to bootlegs from and notice him really missing notes - not necessarily in this video but in general. I think he was just drained. Otherwise, his voice hasn't changed too much over time. If anything, it's gotten better. His voice itself matured and he obviously learned how to become a better technical singer. I think on the Paper Gods tour he's only really struggled with the chorus of A View To A Kill on some nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anyone old enough to remember "View to A Kill" at Live Aid? 10 hours ago, James Bond said: Simon sounds better there than any 2016 performance of this song I've heard, but man, John really needs to shut up in the chorus. Somewhere on the Paper Gods tour John crossed over to the "sings, dresses and dances like a dad" zone. But he still plays an awesome bass. And in light of all that is happening in the world recently, just wanted to share this from last year. If you have a minute or two, listen what Simon says before introducing "Save A Prayer". So poignant and true. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky girl Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 yes, i agreed Simon sounds very good, but it's clearly he needs help on chorus... Simon always had nice timbre but he hasn't had a power to reach high notes as Axl, George Micheal, Rick Astley... Save a prayer has one of the most amazing live performances i've had been seen when radio plays i don't care much , its a kind of music that grow up live 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos to anyone who can still do what they love 25 years after they started. And of course, the millennials have "rickrolling" now so he's kind of "known" once again. And speaking of the old days, here's a rather funkier/jazzier version of Hungry Like the Wolf from 1987. At the time, it was really strange to hear a song I knew so well played with horns etc, but now I rather enjoy it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However while i was listening other covers I reflectioned how DD musicians are talented, HOW fucking HARD are compose good arrangements.pop. I became a GNR just because there werent only screams and drums without harmony. Do you know band play as horse racing? to be a metal/ alternative like some of them on the list are "easy" I became a GNR just because there werent only screams and drums without harmony. Do you know band play as horse racing? Im complety agreed. I dont like metal band who sing as crazy horse racing and t's so good can to appreciate good musicians. GNR is a hard rock band that we can heard a bass, solo guitrar, drums so Defined and harmony. to me in terms of part instrumental some DD songs would be a GNR´song with a more heavy touch because the bass and drums are similary I imagine how amazing ordinary world" would be with Slash intro solo Even DD has a "boyband" look in the early years the lyrics are smart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those artists had some good songs, but it was never close to the poetry of Duran Duran. I liked all of those bands in the 80s, but I could care less if I hear "Material Girl" or "Come on Eileen" again. But songs like "Save a Prayer", "Lonely in Your Nightmare" and a lot of the stuff from "Notorious" are just timeless because they are still easy to connect to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
