Well it's kind of on topic, it relates to the new cd. I think we all kind of agree that most olp songs are just all around better live. So All For You is not an exception.

I'm going to have to disagree. Yes most of OLP songs are quite good live because of the energy, however, Raine's voice live just isn't what it used to be. He used to be much better live and you can hear it from year to year through all the bootlegs. Now the studio recordings as far as vocals go are better. Also, the song with the least amount of energy is Somewhere Out There, there's just no emotion when Raine sings it. There's just that something extra in the studio recording. That's my biggest beef with the live version.

I agree about SOT

Damn all you bastards!

I live in the U.S. It doesn't come out till tuesday. :cry:

That and all I have is $20. It all boils down to an oil change or the OLP cd. But wait! I get paid on wednesday....the oil change can wait! After all, I've been putting it off for weeks already. It can go another week....

except for what you said about sot, I completely disagree with you. every time i've seen olp live raine's voice has gotten better and better. in my opinion at least.

One of the reason why I think OLP is so good is becouse of their live performances. Raine may not have the greatest voice but I still really like it. It is unique and different from a lot of other artists. I also just want to add that their live album is amazing and if you haven't gotten it yet and live in Canada go get it.

I think Raine's voice is fine live. Granted, I've only seen them twice, and both times within the past year. But it didn't sound terrible to me, it's not really the voice that does it for me (unless it's really terrible) that makes live special. It's seeing how the artist feels about it and how he expresses that emotion on stage. You lose some w/ live recordings, but you can still feel it. I think you are right on the SOT there part though, out of all the songs I've seen that one had the least energy, as well as on Live.

I've seen OLP live MANY times and that's not the only reason I think his voice isn't as good live anymore. I'm not saying he sucks live, just that his voice was better live earlier on. The bootlegs are a good way to listen to the way his voice has changed live. Just listen to bootlegs from 94,95,96, etc.. up until now. He still sounds good during most radio shows, but his voice seems to really wear out a lot easier now and that's probably why I don't think he sounds as good as he used to live.

Seeing Our Lady Peace live is what made me a fan when I first saw them on the "Worlds a Blister" Tour.

Before then.....I could've given a trip to the shitter about 'um. Now, I can't live without 'um.

Ya the WAB tour was amazing.... So many good memories

What a great set too

No, I don't mean your rack, although impressive, I'm talking about OLP's Live Setlist

remembers that line on Billy Madison: "Don't I have a nice rack?" :lol:

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 6/29/2003, 8:20 am

It's great that he acknowledges it. It would be a shame if he didn't.

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 6/29/2003, 4:03 pm

LMAO...Billy Madison...my hero

What do you think made his voice lose some quality? Just out of curiousity.

Sounds like I need to dl some more bootlegs from the hub.

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 6/30/2003, 3:36 am

I just think everyone's voice changes with age, not that he's old, but it changes a bit and I think it's because it wears out a lot easier now, that's why I don't think he's as good live.

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 6/30/2003, 7:52 am

He should warm his voice up before a show

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 6/30/2003, 7:53 am

He does. They like playing long Soundchecks for that reason too.

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 6/30/2003, 8:27 am

Oh Yeah!

I forgot aboot the soundchecks

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 6/30/2003, 8:29 am

And those are only the initial warming up because they're much earlier than the actual concert.
