That Old Song They Used To Play

Don't want to extrapolate too much from this, but in their respective online obits of Brad Delp—the Boston frontman who died Friday—both Pitchfork and Rollingstone.com make a point of mentioning the karaokibility of the band's "More Than A Feeling." That’s probably not the sort of biographical detail that deserves to be near the top of an obit, but Delp's talents really did make "Feeling" a tough-going karaoke song: Not only does it require a high voice, but it also requires the stamina to keep that voice going every single time you see your Marianne walking away (those up to the task can try it out here).
