Snowdrop Posted May 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 There's quite a lot of padding, lol. Never mind these other singers, lol. Who are perfectly good, but not Gareth. Ooops, bit of a microphone error! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 I struggled with John Owen Jones' song. Whilst his voice is brill, I didn't know the song. There is an awfull lot of orchestration isn't there? Amost like being in love playing now, which I love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floz Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Damn me that was good. Why God Why? Wonderful (The woman before was dreadful though wasn't she? All warbly) edits. Quite liked the duet. Never heard it before and not 100% sure it was right for either voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowdrop Posted May 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Why God Why was great - I thought Gareth might have got ahead of the orchestra at one point, lol, but very good and I have to remind myself that the nature of live orchestras and performances is that they are always a little different each time. I'm not sure about the duet - I'm not normally fussed by the whole country thing. I think Gareth's part was a bit lower than his normal range, and JOJ was singing in a different style. It was a bit Tom Jones meets Justin Lee Collins, which is a style I'm not that keen on either, lol. I fully expect to change my mind and add it to my favourites after a few more listens!

Snowdrop Posted May 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 How nice to hear them all speak. Although - Gareth's spoken now - get on with the singing - his singing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenjo Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Loved both songs - like Khelda, I'm a country music fan and thought the duet was great. Looking forward to the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floz Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Nice to hear Close every Door again That's some reception he's getting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 The orchestra were a little loud in parts on Close Every Door by Gareth but he did a grand job. He received a huge reception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelda Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Loved him singing Close very door, have to agree about the Orchestra being a bit loud sometimes, but it cant be that easy getting the sound right for everyone on a one off concert.

Snowdrop Posted May 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 It was lovely, wasn't it? But Gareth has such a beautiful voice that it's better when the orchestra is turned down a bit! I liked JOJ's other song too, but cannot abide this current jazz trio. My least favourite sort of music. It just goes on and on and one with no bloody tune!
