It's a wonderful album.

There will be nothing special.

It’s an excellent song.

It's been a long time since I listened to this and now I'm annoyed with myself for forgetting about it.
A lovely song and Richie's voice is incredible. Steve has a nasty habit of adding too much and overcomplicating his music. When it's pared back and has more room to breathe, like here, the results can be really special. Spectral Mornings, despite being centred on the electric guitar, would be another example. Just holding and building a certain mood instead of throwing 15 conflicting moods at a single track.
There's something Beatles-esque in one of the chord changes too.
I love the simplicity, I love the voice, I love the structure; a great track. Is it perfect, the sort of song I'd never tire of listening to? Perhaps not, but I think it's a special little number and I'm giving it 15 anyway.
An excellent song. Close to Across The Universe...

The overdubs in the live version of "The Lamb" are regrettable. I would have preferred a complete re-recording of the album with a more modern production than this pseudo-live. It's all the more regrettable as there are some excellent bootlegs (including soundboards). A box set of little interest (IMO)...

And close to the Wim Wender's version (Bis ans Ende der Welt)...

He looks so frail on this picture despite his smile. You could notice an emergency watch on his wrist.

Glad to read this news.

Yes it’s not’a good one…
-
It’s not his voice during the « So » period. Definitely a recent recording (less crystalline and more deep).
-
I like so much the acoustic version from the last tour. It improves a lot the song.
-
I expected more and finally it’s a classic setlist. Anyway, I will enjoy the show tonight in Brussels.
-
I love this track. The chords are awesome...
A solid 15.

Great version, with some new Gabrielese and other elements new to this version of Make Tomorrow.
It’s’a wonderful version for a great track!
-
Yeah, right.
It doesn't bring the voice forward though, does it? That's what a remix is for.
Yes of course, but the half-speed process improve the dynamics.
-
Yes but the Half-speed master changes considerably the sound and dynamics.
-
Remixed by whom at Abbey Road? Where can one listen to this?
Genesis / Seconds Out half-speed mastered 2LP vinyl – SuperDeluxeEdition
-
The second part of this one sounds too much like some demos...
-
Definitely the studio version. There's a crispness to the guitars and an overall aggression that is fantastic. The live version is much smoother and loses this edge - practically everything on Seconds Out loses this aspect, which is fine for some things and worse for others.
You can listen SO version remixed by Abbey Road a few years ago. The sound is heavier, yet very dynamic, and the voice much more forward. It's a radical transformation!

It's a wonderful song. One of his best
