I'm amazed by how well "Missing You" has held up: such an amazing vocal and performance.

Obviously a real singer and I would not diss. I could hate the 80s singles but they're far better than any number of shit bar bands working at the time.

the tune's been transposed down a step or two from the studio track but I still agree, he sounds pretty good. you can hear there's some push in the higher notes.
