    Every live song he plays it's like: Steven: *Says something completely bananas about his childhood that may or may not be true* "Anyway, here's a song that has absolutely nothing to do with that."

    How can someone, with a deep voice like that, sing so high and light. Lovely and absolutely amazing.

    He uses a lot of breath when he sings but all the notes are comfortably within a baritone range, he rarely goes above an E4 with his chest voice

    Just heard this song in a movie and had to find it here on KZread. This is the 3rd or fourth version of it in a row I've listened to now. Trying to learn the lyrics. Yes, I know, there is a vid w the lyrics listed in the comments. Watched that before this one. But I like the different live versions. Listened to this at regular speed a couple of times. Then at 1.25x speed, then 1.5x speed, then 2x speed. Then back down the ladder to regular 1x speed. On this kind of slow but still cool version w the drums it all sounds good, but in different ways. Try it and see what you think.
