Honestly this an amazing performance considering how many years have past, plus this is an incredibly complex song lyrically to sing and remember, he struggled a bit years ago, so this is impressive!! amazing band, i loved that their music was used in smallville too.

People are so rude! The 90's are gone! He has gotten older! Not everyone's voice is gonna be the same after 20, 30 years. I don't mind hearing this at all. Shit, it's better than today's Pop trash! Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Halsey, any dude from One Direction, Beyonce, Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran, although I think he's cool. We need to hear real music, someone singing about something relatable for once!

I say the same thing too. Today’s music is pure trash compared to the 90s and early 2000s. Most of the songs on my IPod are from that era. I don’t bother listening to the radio unless it’s a radio station that plays 80s, 90s, and early 2000s music.

Are you really saying that Beyonce and Ariana are "pop trash"?

I am a huge fan of Third Eye Blind, and I am not stupid enough NOT to see how talented Ariana Grande and Beyonce are. And BTW, pop music, like any other genre, has bad music and good music.
