Sounds like he wants to be Jeff Buckley when he grows up. A lot of big
epic orchestral production, which I'm normally mad for, but I think he
oversings horrifically. He's one of those guys who really abuses the
falsetto and melisma in an attempt to sound all dramatic and emotional
and stuff, when I think he'd be better served by toning it down a bit.
If you're, like, seriously into Coldplay and early Radiohead, go for
it.
