If I had been in the audience that night it would've taken every ounce of my self-restraint to stop myself from running up onto the stage and diving into Richards lap at the 3 minute mark. He's not just singing at that bejeweled moment. He's living and breathing the song. I am as if in a trance watching him perform. I can't explain it but he is so beautiful to me during the time that he's sitting on the stage and melting my heart with his passionate silky sensual voice. 🥰🥰❣️❣️😘😘💋💋😚😚❣️❣️☺️☺️💋💋🥰🥰❣️❣️

The song is about heartbreak and has amazing lyrics and a fabulous orchestral accompaniment. Richard Harris was multi-talented and his version is definitely the best. He was nominated for a Grammy award in 1969. Bravo to him and the wonderful writer, Jimmy Webb, who won the Grammy for best arrangement accompanying vocalist.

Also the interesting thing is the Macarthur park thing. Did he make the cake replica of the park? Did the caractor go to that park with this girl whom he now misses? See cause that seems to be the thing. Who knows what happened to the girl. Did she leave or die? Was the recepy her recepy thus why he says he won't hav it again?

I love it. What a live performance. All the imperfections in the mix and even how he is off key here and there. Live music and live vocal. Gutsy and it sounds great. No three piece band here. Just to mic the room correctly is a challenge, let alone to orchestrate it and then the singer being able to hear himself as loud as the 100-piece band is. He can belt and hold a note for sure. He is amazing; in many ways his vocal is better here than the studio track -- surely more powerful at his peaks. This is one of the best truly live recordings I've heard on you tube.
@seltaeb96919 ай бұрын

The studio recording is brilliant and ultimately a studio creation with takes and punch ins (sometimes line by line). Richard was hearing the song for one of the first times and -with the help of producer/arrangers and perhaps the songwriter…working out his incredible performance. And recording it piece by piece. In this live performance, his job is to interpret the studio creation in one take, as he sees fit and as he can. Power is needed to hit some parts, parts that were sung softer and likely with multiple takes in the studio. As far as mic-ing the orchestra, this sounds pretty basic. No matter how many mics were deployed, there’s not much definition on the individual instruments. It could be primarily a couple of distant/ boundary mics on the full orchestra plus Richard’s vocal making the broadcast mix. Whatever it was, only the engineer knows for sure 😊. It sounds fine for what it is and that’s the only thing that counts. Orchestras play with some volume but often not as much as a basic loud rock band (of the 1980s or 90s time of this performance). Still, props to the monitors guys. Richard could obviously hold most notes, but the monitors helped.
