I am the first person to talk about Mick's nasal voice but that was an issue that plagued past tours (Licks and ABB, mainly). I have studied Mick's performances closely on this tour and his singing has been ligtyears better than any modern-era tour...he's opened his throat completely and is using more of his lungs than his head voice. He has hit some notes on this tour that hasn't touched in decades on stage---that he mainly only saves for the studio. The issue I'm noticing here is that Mick is obviously doing extra work to NOT use his entire voice's power.

i couldnt let this post go without giving credit where credit is due.this is a fan who just flat out knows what they are talking about.
it sort of follows my thinking that there's something up with this band.keith is just working so hard and playing the lights out and mick seems to have made a decision to let it fly as well-it seems like mick and keith have pushed all their chips to the center of the table.
get your popcorn ready,this is gonna get good.

Yeah, a great post by Justin, and I wholeheartidly agree with him; Jagger's singing has been phenomenal and the biggest surprise I've seen in this tour. He sings differently and better than for ages, and, sometimes I've seen so thrilled - for example, hearing him doing "Angie" and "All Down The Line" in Stockholm - he has not sang never better live as he is now doing. Of course, the latter is over-statement, but you get the idea... I remember being almost worried that, when wittnessing his work through Stockholm gig, that how his voice can last that, he seems to let go about everything he has, in every number.
I hope his throat problem will not cause him to take more carefully in future, and continues his stunning 'I give you anything I have' singing performances we've been treated so far.

Thanks Doxa. His performances have been too good lately--hope is recent illness doesn't change that.
Mick is singing so well that I find myself looking forward to clips of songs I normally skip over like "Wild Horses.' The version from a few shows ago surprised me. And songs that I adore like "Worried About You" or "Out of Control" are just a joy to listen to on this tour.
