This discussion has got me to listen to his performances of that right now. Where does Music of the Night rank with you as far as David performances go?

I'd say so too. I don't remember what my original top five was that I created a list for a long time ago but if it wasn't in my top five then it should be at least top six or seven. I found no flaw vocal-wise, very much felt that performance.

The World I Know! David has good taste choosing that song. Always Be My Baby is a standout, I bet that's in a lot of David fans favorites. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For was great! I wish there was more. You just get a taste of it and it's over.

(I have to mention I love that you wrote out all the abbrevations I used. ) The World I Know was pure perfection. Always Be My Baby made me fall in love with him. And I totally agree about ISHFWILF, it's waaaaay too short! His performance is amazing but it's really over too soon! I want David to perform it in its entirety so bad!

It's a thing of mine. I don't really use abbreviations that often, I like writing out the whole words. I just started typing out TFTNT instead of 'thanks for the new thread' and it takes some getting used to.
So many (or pretty much all, but some songs just seem shorter and more unfinished like Baba O'Riley) are too short. I wished AI gave people more time to sing the whole song. I understand needing to cut things short, though. The show would be too long and who knows if Simon would fall asleep. I would love to hear him perform I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For in its entirety too! __________________

That's cool. I just use them to save time and energy when the title is so freaking long. xD
Baba O'Riley was another one which really suffered from the shortening, really the worst, because it felt like it ended before it really began. ISHFWILF was a little bit better in that regard. On the other hand his performance of TWIK included all the relevant parts of the song so it didn't feel like we were deprived of anything. But it would have been great if they could have performed whole songs, who cares if Simon falls asleep. xD __________________

That makes sense. since it's David songs and songs he's performed, we all know what the abbreviations mean.
Agreed that 'The World I Know' felt like it ended before it began. Do you think he should have sang a different part of the song and that would have made a difference? TWIK was fine to me, no complaints of that one. Quote:

Exactly.
Do you mean Baba O'Riley or ISHFWILF was missing something? I don't think he should have sung a different part of ISHFWILF, it was shortened in a "good way" (if you ever say that about shortening songs ) but with Baba O'Riley we were definitely left missing the climax. The only part that was left out was basicaly the pre-chorus but I think doing that or repeating the chorus would have probably helped. __________________

I was talking about Baba O'Riley, the other song was fine to me.

I hear Idol is coming back so let's give David a re-do.
