Thinking of SP while seeing Elton John in concert....

[Crazie Scarab]

Any thoughts????

SP rocks! EJ Rocks. My first 8 track tape was Captain Fantastic. Great tape! I have it on CD now. CLICK.. CLICK SP is retired. EJ isn't. SP is a retard. SP has stated many times that he's DONE. I trust his word.

"As for his voice , I believe Perry would sound amazing singing with his matured voice of today!"


I second that!

You two think he would sound amazing taking a shit.

He probably has a multi-octave grunt.

With perfect pitch, no doubt!!!

And he would make one grunt into 20 syllables!

Turd vibrato???

Good on you Nig.
You got a lot of mileage out of that one.

HOLY CRAPOLA!!! I CAN POST!!!
Gosh, its been so long; feels like gettin' to first base for the first time all over again

Anyhoo, I wanted to chime in w/ an opinion on this thought.
Personally, I think Perry's voice could still be in TBF-shape these days, if not better.
Think about it, aside from screamimg his guts out cheering on the Sox a few years back,
it doesn't seem like he's done much to put any wear & tear on his voice. I'm sure he probably
sings in the shower and while driving around... He will never be in '81 form-- NO ONE
could ever be in '81 Perry form!

But the emotion and depth in the TBF recordings is amazing, some of Perry's greatest
vocal performances (even if most of the songs were boring/mediocre).
He could STILL easily draw crowds if he chose to perform, whether it in Vegas
or a small-venue, intimate setting type of tour. His fans would go crazy and enjoy
themselves because HE is performing the music; we wouldn't care if he hit those
highs.

I thought of perry recently too. I was inthe Barber Shop over here and
one of the TCNs (3rd Country Nationals work on base here) put in a new
Lionel Ritchie DVD from a Paris performance. here's a guy that had vocal cord
damage from a knife attack still performing... Sure, he didn't sound as good as
he did in the 70s and 80s, whether it was a Commedores classic or his solo material.
But the sold out crowd WENT ABSOLUTELY NUTS after every song because it was Lionel
singing these songs that he created, songs these fans had grew up onand cherished.

Same goes for Perry and he would get the same kind of fanfare he were to ever give it go...
Here's to always hoping...

Carlitto!!!!!!!!! Nice to see ya!!!!!!!!!!!!
