when I spoke about his singing being thin, I didn't necessarily mean he should scream more (tho it wouldn't hurt). I just meant even in the regular singing, his voice seems to have lost the strong, nasal-y quality that many first time listeners find annoying but which we fans have all come to love. His voice also has this sort of catch to it now, it cuts off the first part of a lot of the words he sings. (i.e. Cherub Rock- "OO wants honey?" lol) I'm not a person who thinks an artist should never change, but if they do, at least be able to express their earlier stuff true to the way it was written.

I think the end of Starz is fine. That song has grown on me. Sometimes you get over little annoying phrases that really irk you, like "We. Are. Stars. We are." and the song seems ahhsum.

As for G.L.O.W., I already liked that song before the studio version leaked, so I'm fine with that also.

Well, he didn't say "I wanna rub my dick in broken glass" so I guess that's a bonus.
