This one's a tad too fast to let the song be its funky syncopated self. And the ending sort of just gets lost in noise vs. the 2002 version had a nice ending with a ritardando leading to the last note.

I do hope they slow it down!!


Hoooooold on! There's a 2002 version of The Wonderful Future?! Holy crap, I want that! Is there anywhere else I can get it besides the hub? :O

There's no recordings circulating (although one exists of one of the shows it was played at -- but the taper wasn't happy with the recording and never got around to transferring it off the DAT). I saw them play it live -- same night they debuted Our Time Is Fading -- but I didn't own any recording gear back then.

The drums are actually right... but indeed a bit too fast. Maybe for the fact we can't really hear the bass in this video it sounds like there's something missing, maybe a second guitar... dunno. Sounds awkward.


Really? I loved it...it was a bit fast but loved it.

Well Steve was a big fan too (before joining), so basically he's a fan with big influence :)

I am currently working on making a Youtube video that will seamlessly mix the original recordings of the rare Clumsy/SM songs with their 2010 live versions... I think you guys will love this... really showcases how great the 2010 live covers are!! :) I'll Youtube it when done

Do we still need car crash? Cause I have that too
I have not seen these vids yet so I don't know how they came out.
Once again my hand was moving quite a bit and I was paying more attention to concert than actual video. It's at least something for you guys

I get my new computer today so I can finally watch these videos...I'm so happy (and I'm not usually this thrilled to spend Friday night on the computer!)

Hey guys, here's a video I made comparing the original recordings of a couple of Clumsy/SM songs to their live interpretations this past week... I must say it really shows how great Raine's voice is singing these songs today:

I have a feeling it will be pretty quiet around here for most of the night with most of the CM population at Massey! I can't wait to start seeing the YouTube videos from there coming up.

In the meantime I will distract myself with your video, Strong Alibi.

His voice may not sounds exactly like it used to... but even so, the _quality_ is there. He has decent control of it now.

I think his voice, or just their sound in general didn't carry over so well in that video. Cause I was there that night, and Raine's voice was dead ON...he sounded amazing...
(I realized it sounds quite different even on the videos I made)

yea I tried to get as much ray in there as possible. My camera battery life doesn't last that long so I had to shut it off at the end of every song. I had turned it on right when I would here ray, so it would get cut off.

I can not wait to see the Massey Hall. I wanted to go to that one, unfortunately its a ten hour drive and my two busiest nights at work are on friday and saturday and giving up on that much money isn't too smart right now. OOh im even excited for the people at the show right now :)

You are also hearing it through microphones being projected to a big room. That audio there was most likely from the sound board it was so clear.
