And we just had to figure out how to play them again. Some of these songs that when we started to rehearse them for this Morning View live stream, the ones that felt intimidating, like the ones I just mentioned, they're getting exciting and fun. But they're starting to get fun to perform again, I just need to stretch a little bit and get warm too, that kind of thing.īaltin: Have you thought about when you go out on the road in 2022, if there are songs from this album you want to re-incorporate into the show?īoyd: Absolutely. I'm not thinking about the future, it's just yeah, right now, all of it.
They're super fun 'cause they're high energy, but by the time I get into the choruses of these songs as a singer, it's like at the top of my range and just stays at the top of my range, like a true 25-year-old. So we're figuring it out and it's actually starting to sound kind of amazing so we're stoked.īaltin: Which songs for you, have you been surprised to find have been difficult to revisit?īoyd: It's been songs like, "Under My Umbrella" and "Have You Ever," "Blood On The Ground," just like the deep album cuts. Like you could go in and you could lift what you lifted when you were 25 as a 45 year old, but you're gonna hurt something, at the very least. So it's almost like I've been in training again. But there are a handful, like I said about the quarter to half the record where, as we've been rehearsing I've been like "Come on young Brandon, take it easy." And there's ways I've been trying to massage them to make them a little more palatable to a 45-year-old body I suppose. And the very first thought that's been coming into my mind as a singer is, "I wish I had known that these songs would be quite difficult to sing 20 years later." Some of them are still just like kind of right there. But then I'd say it's probably half of the album that we haven't really touched over the last 15 to 20 years or so. There are a handful of songs off the record that we have continued to incorporate in our set lists live and so some of them didn't take much rehearsing to bring it back up to speed. Brandon Boyd: Yeah, that's a fantastic point.
