Man is humble. Tried doing that screamed high note he does in the chorus and realized it wouldn't work, so he went for a less powerful but cleaner way to get to it. I respect a guy who knows when to place quality over spectacle.
i think he was just feeling it to be honest. there is no other live of this song where rory belts the chorus clean, he does the scream-ish vocal which is actually way less straining than what it sounds like. I feel like the full clean vocal is a lot harder for rory and thats why this is the one time he did it.
@@ren2089 That or he felt some strain and knew not to push it but still made it work, but yes, every other version, he does scream those vocals. I loved it both ways tbh, but I do prefer the original way just a tad more :)
it makes me happy seeing rory smile at the crowd participation after seeing how much the crowd in the pressure tour were sleeping on them. god what an awesome band
