I get your point but I really don't think there was anybody out there saying "Hey this sounds like x band therefore I like it" as really we're the only ones that are preoccupied with comparing the songs to other songs. Most people just like a song and check the band out, and if they like the rest of their output they check out more. Especially after 2000 the promo for the band included their legacy just as much as the new stuff....

A snippet of Who Says You Can't Go Home.

He sounds so awful! He can't sing this song in the original key (goes flat on notes) and his tone is horrible.

He actually sounds sharp rather than flat, which is weird.

He sounds like he's singing Who Says to the tune of American Pie or something. It's off beat.

Maybe it's not his voice but his ears. Maybe he has issues to hear that he sounds so bad that he keeps continuing.

That's a plausible scenario, but I don't think it's true... Maybe he is struggling too much to make his voice sound well and is out of breath...

Who's back there on keyboards, the guy from The Dave Letterman show?
