Has anyone noticed that the opening song, "one vision" on the last ever concert at knebworth park, was sung in an entirely different way than it is usually sung, it was sung very low key and almost gentle, compared to how it was usually sung. The marked difference is heard when they go into tie your mother down, which is sung with the same gusto and power as it usually was.

I wonder why this was done?
It was done on purpose.

i was there...great gig...and nice to have been a part of their final gig..even if no one knew it at the time...

as regards your point...it's not uncommon ofr bands to do their songs in different keys live

No I've not noticed and think you're completely wrong. I also think the knebworth version was one of the strongest of the tour

i was not refering to musical key
i was talking about the phrasing and mood delivery.
also i was not critical of it.
