Heroes and Thieves - "Just when I've figured out"
rainforestspirit:
I agree with you all....I like the song except for the parts where she cracks in her voice and it is REALLY off key. I hate to say it but when I first heard it, it sounded so off key that I felt embarrassed for her. I hope the studio version is much better. I know some of you like the crack in her voice but musically it just really shouldn't sound like that.
Sorry to say something kinda sort of negative but its unfortunately the truth. And every musician has their off day - I am sure V sounds beautiful singing this song normally and the version on the record will be great.
LimeTwister:
--- Quote from: "tylor2000" ---Not only sad but also very weak. Lame duck might not have been the right words. It is a very somber song and the off key parts are always raising in nature. so it is like it is so sad and weak that the melody can't quite reach the right note.
EDIT: maybe I'm hearing things that are not there. But if there are any off key parts that might explain it.
--- End quote ---
I like this interpretation...plus, she sings it the same way throughout the entire song, so I am assuming she does it on purpose.
HarmySandwhich:
That's what I was thinking. Does she know that she sounds pretty bad - or was it on purpose? On second thoughts, how hard is it to sing that line? I'm no singer so I can't really tell. Maybe it's just a really hard line to sing.
LimeTwister:
Yeah, but if it was overly hard for her to sing, she could easily change it...she's the writer hahahaha.
PianoGirl4444:
I honestly doubt she's doing it on purpose.
