Yeah funny thing is, not wearing a guitar makes singing quite a bit easier. It gives some room to breath on your belly and you aren't shaking your body trying to play. It's honestly quite relieving once you get used to the "awkwardness" of not having a guitar strapped onto your body.
Also you don't have to worry about hitting the right frets/strings if the timing is slightly awkward. Try playing bass and singing a Tool song. That gets tricky...
This is one of my favourite live performances of all time, I could not count how many times I watched this concert and specifically just for I never came
When you say it's dead and gone, yes, I know you're wrong Cut and slash, sharpest knife, it won't die, ah Poison cup, drank it up, it won't die No fire, no gun, no rope, no stone, it won't die, ah Why you gotta shove it in my face As if you put me in my place? 'Cause I don't care if you or me is wrong or right Ain't gonna spend another night in your bed, in your bed Laws of man are just pretend, they ain't mine Love so good, love so bad, it won't die, ah Some talk too long, they know it all and I just smile and move on Words ain't free, like you and me, I don't mind, ah Why'd you have to be so mean and cruel? The dogs are loose, I'm on to you You ball and chained together from the dawn to dusk Can't call it leaving, 'cause it's just I never came I never came I never came I never came I never came I never came
This gig in Berlin 2005 is my favourite version (acoustic), the whole gig is amazing, intimate. Check it out if not seen before.They are just an incredible band. RIP Natasha 😇 m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZbBPQTHbD4E.html
Perfecto! Alain playing Joshua's lead line & Natasha playing Alain's bass line to free up Josh to fully immerse himself vocally is a heavenly marriage made. R.I.P. Natasha❤🙏 I so wish I'd been at that performance, although I'd seen them live previously with Nick Oliveri and Mark Lanegan (R.I.P. also❤🙏). My daughter was born the year of this gig so I unfortunately missed out, however I'm very grateful for this quality of content/ment😊🫂. That fills the gap💗🤘
A worthy side note, Josh has a diagnosed case of Restless Frontman Syndrome in this performance brought on by foregoing the hand-busying guitar he's accustomed to occupying him for the majority of performances.
This song.. pure talent. One of the best live performances of this song i've heard. And Josh Homme? Well, he's sex on legs. Plain and simple. God that man rocks my socks :P
This was standard for how they played it for this lineup, some songs Alain played guitar for live like Burn the Witch, Long Slow Goodbye, Little Sister. That sort of thing
I've known about QOSA for a while now but only just got into them and I keep finding amazing song after amazing song. They're becoming one of my favourite bands.
Mellow wicked song, it's like a Soundgarden song calm deviance. I never knew the song was a break up song. "You can't say I am leaving, because I never came." Auugh, did a chick I used to date write this song?
One of my favs of QotSA. First several second when they adjust is the best, at least better than in studio version. I think Joshua began playing more lullabies since he sacked Nick. Actually I adore both Queens - this song and also those like "Millonaire". And the keyboardist supporting them in this tour is nice ;)
I totally agree. Part of it is his size, how many frontmen can you think of that are 6'5" and solid men. Then add on top of that some mad skills, he's pretty unique.
