i do think his voice occasionally gets lost during live shows abit, esp in huuge stadiums, & sounds a bit thin when its near the end of the concert & they're tired. some voices r just not --& i mean technically spkng, dun kill me -- 100% good for live shows.

But his awesome charisma & humorous random acts more than make up for it ;D

hvg said that, he does really well on songs that have loads of room for melodic improvisation e.g. Prison, Venom, & Mama too

Gerards voice does its job pretty well, it is the sound of MCR and thus, like the guitars, bass and drums perfect for the band. I wouldnt change a thing. But I do agree on some live shows his voice does fade a bit, but it may be that he is overstraining it on so many tours and shows all the time - he needs to rest a bit.

Plus MCR songs are not that easy to do vocally....... No

I think they were trying to spell out the first album and had a typo.

If anything, he can still sing Umbrella better than Rhianna can.

I think that he should give up smoking so his voice doesn't get screwed up anymore...if he did it would sound even better. since a lot of people were saying that smoking is screwing up his voice.

Well Ville Valo smokes, claiming it helps keep his voice the way it is
And just recently I was told he's dying from cancer & can't hit his own high notes in live shows

So yeah, it probably isn't helping

Gerard's voice has changed quite a lot though...it used to seem a bit stronger

I think its changed quite a bit. eve tohugh he's not blonde anymore I can't see him singing stuff off bullets with blonde hair. it could be the look but I just don't think he sounds like that anymore. Some of the change is good and some not so good. I mean in desert song when he says morg he's got kind of a roughness to his voice I would sya that I really like and I don't think he sounds like that anymore. or just doesn't sing that way I'm not sure.

Gerard's voice has changed over the years.
He dosent even sound like he did on Bullets and Revenge on TBP.
My mom actually thought they had got a new singer o.0
But he is still so amazing

frm a strictly objective point of view Gerard's is not the strongest voice in rock -- in fact occasionally, it doesn't carry well in large stadiums. and he tends to sound a bit exhausted after a while. but it's definitely outstanding in that it's got a lovely rawness to it which suits their music anyway. the rawness is especially lovely in parts like the end of Monroeville, and midway thru Desert. it just gives every song a natural sincerity.

altho if he lacks anything in the vocal department, his mindblowing song-writing skills more than make up for it. =)

One of the reasons that he sounds different on TBP than Bullets is that he doesn't scream-sing anymore..if you understand what I mean. His voice has become more beautiful.

He sounds extremely young in the Bullets album.
Bullets was the last album I came across after discovering MCR, and I was completely shocked at how different he sounded.
His voice has matured a great deal, and over the years it is easy to see what new levels he has reached with his voice, and how much improvement overall he has made.
