    This is a nice middle ground between Cedric’s breakdancing period and his “Ok I’m gonna actually sing” period.

    agreed. Cedric reached max potential vocally at this period. Also this was the last year the Jon was in the band. And for those reasons it's the best. However I feel like Omar peaked a few years later and progressively got better and utilized more interesting effects. But unfortunately Thomas pridgen ruined it with his overplaying and by that time Cedric was struggling vocally

    ​@@levijessegonzalez3629 Agreed. I think their best performance was at Huxley's Neue Welt in Belgium 2005. Cedric shined during that. Went above and beyond even his studio singing. After that he began to really struggle. It was disappointing ngl. He'd be skipping entire choruses or just "AAAAAA"-ing his way through them, not being able to hit notes. It's hard to sing that style for so many years while also dancing, I'll give that to him. He remains my favorite singer of all time. Dude sounds like an alien angel.

    I saw them in 2003 . They mixed up the set for example they would play a song and long interludes as usual and go in to chorus of the previous song played it felt like i was on drugz. Also the energy was higher , the physical performace was really off the charts. Best show ive seen of them all tommorows party in long beach queen mary

    Best version of this show I can find. Saw same show near Seattle. Make me wish I had shown this to my father at the time. Because he is dead and this tops any 70s act. I was too busy hiding my drug use and time spent. If you like this music now. Please share. Look up De Facto, they just played a show

    I wonder why that is. I think it may be because before Frances the Mute came out, Volta used to play parts of Cygnus during Drunkship's breakdown, live. It was pretty cool. I think you see it happen during the Electric Ballroom performance.

    Cedric started Take the Veil... pretty well, and then ruined it all as usual... he had no control of his voice in live performances :-/

  • @ExternusArmy

    Not quite the issue. He is able to control his voice pretty well when singing in the accessible portions of his range, usually with good pitch and on key and with reasonable projection and stability. He’s able to control his voice far into 5th and even 6th octaves in falsetto/mixed, which means he clearly has good control. He runs into problems when trying to go into the 5th octave in full voice, which is too high for even many women to sing. Singing that high in full voice as a male is quite challenging and taxing on the voice, so he often has to sacrifice quality and even pitch to get that high. Now put this in the setting of frequent touring and harsh overuse of voice, a lot of drugs, and his tendency to favor displaying energy and emotion over good technique or technical skill, and you get pretty shaky live performance.
