Ian McCulloch seemed so ethereal and transcendent when younger - he's like the last rock star I would imagine to end up all Shane MacGowan / Shaun Ryder
One doesn't recognize here his voice on The Cutter, it sounds like someone imitating him. his voice is strained, hearing him hitting notes with difficulty is painful. They sound like Oasis playing Bunnymen repertoire. Big mouth was just 46 in 2005 !
Ya know, I’m so bloody sick of the discourse over someone’s voice. I love the Bunnymen so much and I have to read all this crap every time I watch one of these videos and it’s ridiculous. Ian sounds quite good here and people just always want to say something about him. I don’t get it. He’s older right and he’s even older now than here and he’s still singing. And touring all the time, you go on and sing for a flippin hour yeah and tell me how it goes. As another singer, I’ll tell ya it’s tiring. Give it a rest already, they’re incredible and important to post punk and new wave. Have some respect. Try to be kind, it won’t kill ya. I adore Mac full stop.
He can't hit the high notes of Never Stop, and people enjoy a singer who is a shadow of himself. Nostalgia, what the young McCulloch in his twenties would have said of a forties singer who sings like that. Sinatra at 70 could still hit all the notes exactly with the same tessutura; difference of class
Sinatra!?? The guy who 'talked' his songs?? Bull and Lol. Plus those old (Sinatra) crooners and 'their' music is going to be 'easy' down the line compared to the type of RnR songs Ian and others created. No singer sounds on stage exactly like a recorded version where you're not dealing with 'outside' elements etc. 'straining' the vocal.

Some men take to business, some men take to pleasure, some men doth pleasure take. Someone
That audio mix ❤❤❤. So much punch and energy. Great performance by The Bunnymen
The Cutter is the greatest song ever.

Bad idea for professional singers to chain smoke for decades

Gostei , muito bom .......
Great era for them. Is any era bad really? Ian is grunging out here.
Fab interview Mac’s got a sexy voice!
EATB - Anhembi 1987 - São Paulo .
Love Gordie Goudie. The Bunnymen's loss was The Minds' gain
Your right...Gordie is a top man..met him many times after Bunnies' shows in Liverpool
top form...
just shadows of what they used to be
I’m getting some juice in my feed
The film director has a thing for the chick backstage who was probably McCulloch's young girlfriend at the time
Bs loser!👎🤮

La voz de Ian no tiene nada que ver con la que fue un día, está totalmente estropeada y rota, una pena.
