    People in the comments saying this dude doesn't sounnd like Frankie, shidd, Frankie has a difficult voice to imitate, shidd even Frankie himself couldn't imitate his own voice after a while. He song in such a high voice. So I think this guy did ok considering Frankie's unfollowable voice.

    So now the other version of Maze that is comprised of the OG band (to the greatest extent possible) will be in competition with this version that is now without Frankie. It’s like an almost even playing field now that FB isn’t performing. But, I think the other version with the OG band wins. I would rather see them.
