Tried too hard. Watch the original Ileanna Douglas / Kristen Vigard version from Grace Of My Heart. This one needs to take it down a peg or two.

Yes! I love Raoul but he’s doing to much here - vocally and facially/performance - it just all feels like too much lol. 😅

This is an odd criticism but I think he should have left the jacket off. Just a little overdressed for this naked and intense performance.

The great looks, the wonderful instrument, and add to those the great acting ability with which he gives such a marvelous and unique interpretation to Costello’s incomparable song….what a package!

Wow! What a class in how to use every aspect of one's voice from soft deep tones, falsetto to expressing powerful guttural pain. He even has changed his vocal quality to one that sounds more like Elvis Costello! Just brilliant!

Oh my God. Never have I heard such raw anger. I hope he ended his show or started his break with this song. He needs recovery time.

Holy Mother of God, that was intense. I think he left a piece of his soul on that stage. Gave me chills throughout.

First time I heard this rendition. Good job! But Elvis Costello owns it..... sorry! Too much screeching, straining and screaming, Raul.
@jordoncarnegie1206 Ай бұрын
No strain. He's an incredible vocalist who effortlessly switches from clear bright tones to vocal fry like it's nothing. If you were a vocalist youd understand the amount of control and training that takes

I think Raul is brilliant with, not only his interpretation of songs, but his ability to tell the story through his voice. I went back and listened to Costello's version because I had never heard this song and I wanted to hear how Elvis and Burt interpreted it. Costello seems to sing the song with a sadness rather than an anger. Raul probably brings more anger to the interpretation of the song, but neither is wrong. That's one thing I love about Esparza. He brings his own passion and emotions to every song he does. He doesn't try to be like any other singer. Most anyone can sing a song, but not everyone can tell a story that communicates to the listener what the writer is trying to say. Raul is brilliant at telling the story, not only on stage in the many Broadway and off Broadway shows he has done, but also when he sings at events. Raul never just gets up and sings a song. He is "all in" when he sings and he brings the listener in with him.

Love both versions, but Raul can act when he sings. I think that's the difference. Also I don't think Elvis is the same angry young man he used to be. :)

You can't be serious his voice is very rough and no where near as good as Elvis's ,

You should also check out a movie called Grace of My Heart. It's the first time I heard this song and it's a wonderful movie. Kristen Vigard dubs the vocals for Illeana Douglas.
