It was the tremolo part that was a backing track, later they omitted it from the live version. (Or am I wrong?) Oh right gotcha, so the intro part with the echoing guitars? Yeah that counts as a backing track I guess, I noticed that they started using it again recently when playing it on this FOAM era. I think I prefer it with the acoustic guitar at the beginning, BUT I haven't heard it live in it's original style yet whereas I have heard the acoustic version 9 times, so I wouldn't mind them keeping it in for this tour.

The way they're faking it now looks kind of dumb. I know but that was just the intro. Now the backing tracks consist of vocals, claps and cymbals throughout the whole songs.

Yeah, tbh it kind of bothers me they're using backing tracks for stuff they could easily do live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It never even phased me the way they did the BOBD intro thing in the past because it wasn't what made the song. Here you have a song that I have seen considered as a vocal performance, and half of said vocals are pre-recorded, that leaves us with whatever is left of the song actually being played live just being painfully boring in my opinion. They need to do something else with this song asap, or lose it off the set list completely. There is no way I can dance to this shit when I am at my shows in November. 1 hour ago, Nightlife said: No joke this is my face whenever I am seeing "Oh Jesus Fuck No" being played live in it's current form 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 The most painful part is that the vocals that weren't prerecorded were often out of tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really bothers me that Billie sings 'nobodys gonna get hurt' for some reason though. Hard agree - I fucking love the red leopard print shirt, best of both previous worlds And also same, oh my god. The choppy, laid back rhythm of album/single version is a fun touch, why lose it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
