    What’s totally mind blowing to me is that he’s singing this identically like the album with the other instruments behind him and he’s not wearing any type of in-ear monitor!!! I’m not sure about floor wedges so he can hear himself but DANG, to be that spot on without mix in his ears is the epitome of perfection!!!

    • @romankorya
      @romankorya Рік тому +8

      Back in 1992 it was not common to use these in ear monitors. I think they used the good old monitors right on the floor in front of the singers.

    • @rpmevo8
      @rpmevo8 Рік тому +2

      @@romankorya That makes sense. I’ve watched some stuff from last year too and I think he still doesn’t use the in ear monitors. It’s impressive to say the least, but he just has that natural ability and floor monitors are enough. It seems ALL new artists use the in ears now.

      @@rpmevo8 This is a big show, so no doubt the sound production was excellent. Also its not a terribly loud song or band. All that said, learning to sing live with low tech than we have nowadays was a skill that anyone that came up in the 70s/80s/90s had to learn...in addition to playing/singing.

Whenever I hear it, I am immediately transported back in time to the summer of 1986 & my mom dropping me off for summer camp early in the morning in our 1985 Dodge Colt Vista with condensation/dew wearing off of the open windows & the exhaust still emitting that rich "cold start" odor.

      I thought it was lighters too but it can't be. They'd get too hot after even 30 seconds, left alone a 4 minutes. I think they are sparklers. I also doubt every second person had a lighter and pulled it out for that long. Definitely sparklers handed out or something.
      Yeah, you can see the sparklers at the start of the song in the first few seconds.

    Holding back the years
    Thinking of the fear I've had so long
    When somebody hears
    Listen to the fear that's gone
    Strangled by the wishes of pater
    Hoping for the arms of mater
    Get to me the sooner or later, oh
    Holding back the tears
    Chance for me to escape from all I know
    Holding back the tears
    'Cause nothing here has grown
    I've wasted all my tears
    Wasted all those years
    Nothing had the chance to be good
    Nothing ever could, yeah, oh
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on, so tight
    Well I've wasted all my years
    Wasted all of those years
    And nothing had the chance to be good
    'Cause nothing ever could, oh yeah
    Oh
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    I'll keep holding on
    Holding
    Holding
    Holding
    Holding, la-la-la, la, la-la
    I said, ooh, yeah
    That's all I have today
    It's all I have to say
