        yes, they didn’t play ‘Not The Same’ here in Hamburg last December, but a similar moment was when they played ‘Alone’. The volume made the ears bleed, but it was an introverted moment at the same time. The whole gig was unbelievable and left us stunned and deaf but happy [img]images/smiles/converted/biggrin.gif[/img]
        Too sad that the tour in June had to be cancelled for the known reasons and I hope J is recovering well to come around soon again.

          For some reason, it can really send the chills up and down my spine when I’m not at all sure what J is singing. Like at the end of "Forget It." It sounds something like, "Come on. You know I wanna see you. But I can only take so many hurts, are you that one that I…" And then, I just don’t know. I love that. It makes it sound like it’s too painful for J to even sing about. And that almost brings the tears to my eyes, every single time I hear the song.

              Hey,

              Tons of spine thrilling moments with J tunes but the one that always does it for me is Ammaring…live as well as just audio…that solo…so cool [img]images/smiles/converted/biggrin.gif[/img]

                I`m with Jasper on Forget It,great tune.I once was listening to it on my walkman in march 94,walking along a busy highway;with it really loud,one of those canadian winter days of rain and snow;lucky I did`nt get hit by a car.On the other side of the tape was Buffalo Tom`s Big red letter day album,I was switching back and forth from the 2 sides and trying to watch the traffic.

                  The Heavy Electric Peel Sessions version of Same Day gets me all the way through… that song is a walking chill-up-the-spine maker! [img]images/smiles/converted/biggrin.gif[/img]

                  Oh… and when Justin starts doing that popping with his mouth on the new N’Sync single… he’s so dreamy… [img]images/smiles/converted/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/converted/wink.gif[/img]

                          yeah, I know what you mean. I started to listen to Hand It Over after that gig, because of that great version of Alone.
                          I bought that CD over two years ago, but I ignored it almost totally, and so I didn’t find out about all those great songs on it for about two years. What a shame [img]images/smiles/converted/mad.gif[/img]

                              Let´s not get carried away here. Frankly J.s music is not more than perfect, it´s not even perfect. I mean, that´s part of the atraction, isn´t it?! Those little imperfections here and there. Just like Life itself. Hey, more philosophy for all of you.

                                I agree. I listen to bootlegs of bands and it’s those indelable voice fluxes and cracks and imperfections that make live performances so great. Is their a certain perfection in imperfection? Eh… maybe if we had an art/philosophy forum we could discuss this.

                                  Every time I listen to J, I just melt. His voice is so beautiful. I can’t get enough.
