That's why I love him

Cereal Killer · 03-12-2015, 10:11 PM

Me too.

Jenny's Dimple · 03-13-2015, 01:04 PM

Adorkable human being

Cereal Killer · 03-13-2015, 11:25 PM

Adorkable is exactly what he is.

Street Spirit · 03-21-2015, 04:28 AM

Adorkable is right! It's good that he's 'somewhat likely' to attend his own tour.

Do you think we should post the list here first and then see which ones we aren't that familiar with and watch them to refresh our memory?

Sounds good. I do need a refresher.

Yeah, it would be kinda inconvenient if he didn't attend his own tour.

The other David could do it!

Ooh, thanks for this! I don't think I've seen/listened to every single one of these so I will have to rewatch them asap.

Oh yeah, people have been refering to him instead of David many, many times before.

No problem! I could definitely use a reminder too so let's just start going down the list, okay?

Since the list doesn't include his AI performance, the ABMB from 2008 must have been the one he did at his Homecoming show (he also performed it at least on his Asian tour later years). I think we can skip it since we know ABMB and go for Hunger Strike, right?

Here's my favorite performance of it:

David and Andy sound so amazing together!

Street Spirit · 03-31-2015, 05:19 AM

That was an excellent performance and, yes, they sounds perfect together. <3

Cereal Killer · 04-01-2015, 12:20 AM

It was perfect. This is definitely my favorite David/Andy vocal collaboration.

Street Spirit · 04-01-2015, 03:51 AM

I can see why. Can I dream about a studio to that now?

Cereal Killer · 04-05-2015, 11:50 AM

A studio version would be so perfect.

So, I'm looking at the next song on the list and that Livin' on a Prayer from 2008 is also from his homecoming. But I'm gonna post a performance from the Declaration tour in 2009, I've always loved this one:

Exquisite.

I also love someone telling him to "bring it home, baby" after the breakdown.

Street Spirit · 04-08-2015, 07:03 AM

Ha, I love the enthusiasm of the crowd when he starts singing. That was a great performance. I loved the slowed down pacing of the singing, sounds amazing.

Cereal Killer · 04-11-2015, 05:50 PM

Yeah, they probably didn't expect him to do it because he didn't normally perform it on the tour.

It was an amazing performance and that version is the same he did at the AI audition (Prayer '94), it really suits him.

I'll post the next cover soon, I'm just debating between a full band version or this really cool acoustic version he did on it.

broken melody · 04-12-2015, 06:35 AM

Can I be added to the list?
