we’re kind of all used to it by now, but carey mercer is an astonishingly great vocalist, and he really gives some killer performances on the new record. in no particular order:
-“my voice, my voice, my voice” i love the way he blows out his voice on the word voice. consistently nails it three times. i’m not a singer but that can’t be easy, even if it was just an accident that his voice cracked like that…
-“i said YEAH, i said YEAH” that interviewer from NZ said it best when he told carey he sounded “possessed” during this part. especially with the overdubbed “harmonies”
-“and i remember my dad…” (that whole song, really) i love that almost conversational tone carey hits here. i can’t really think of another example in his discography, but it works. it’s so good. rhythmically complex, too.
-“i felt ABYSMAL”
