How come Marie doesn’t sing IMHBL like before (clip above)? I have never heard her hit all the high notes in this song before.

I do have to say that the room service tour live performances are all very great, much better than how she did in the Live-ism videos.

Well, simply because she can’t hit those notes anymore for already a long time.
Same goes for LTYH, the modulation in the last choruses was left away during the RS tour, whitch doesn’t give the song the emotion it normaly gets.
Of course she can’t help it her voice has changed.

Why isn’t the clip available anymore????
Where else is it available?

Thats very strange, i’m sure there used to be other version of that same clip. But there seems to be very few rox clips all up, only 6 pages. I’m sure there used to be much more than that.

yes there were loads, someone on you tube is taking them off ! me thinks its copyright reason’s have kicked in, OR emi would have to pay youtube to put stuff on, as youtube is so popular lately and want to make money. mmmmm

Absolutely love that LA91 version of IMHBL. I was blown away by the ending the first time i heard it. Just great. I’d love to have a decent quality stereo version of this songl
With your question, i’d say it’s that back then she was still young, about 30, only a year or two since the original was recorded. Her voice has changed over the years, it’s a little lower and more mellow.
Marie said so herself that she could probably still do it, she’d just be coughing afterwards though. :-)
