Excellent interview. His comments about his singing and trying to re-invent the way he sings the older songs were interesting, and it definitely explains a few things. Clearly from his point of view his vocals are a work in progress these days. As an artist you always want to be evolving, and I can certainly understand why he's doing it. But to me it still sounds awful and irritating when he tries to do that stuff. In all seriousness, I wonder if he's ever considered seeing a voice specialist? Because I really think that would help him achieve what he's trying to do. After Leslie Feist blew out her vocal chords in the late 90s/early 2000s, she hired a vocal coach to help her change the way she sings in order to save her career. And now she sounds incredible.

I was also happy to hear him mention the record he made with the Sadies. I wonder if this means it will actually see the light of day eventually. I've been dying to hear the results of that collaboration.
