[@grayhowl8487]

So! That part is referencing the wife’s perspective in the song. That he cries when she verbally (and maybe physically) abuses the husband in the song-So there’s “obviously”something mentally wrong with him. Any baby would cry/scream when strapped to a ceiling fan, that’s not a uniquely autistic experience. Just like anyone would cry when being abused, regardless of mental wellness. Essentially an abuser saying “No LOOK, you’re the crazy one”

Maybe stage fright or he uses special effects off-stage

[@waitsbian]

its probably pretty hard on his voice.

[@TakkuriHimare]

Generally that scream is very hard on the voice, very few people can do stuff like that without hurting their voice. It’s considered very risky to do them when you’re performing several songs in a row, even as an encore because if your voice is tired you can hurt yourself pretty badly or just start coughing and that’s just not ideal at a performance. I happily do screams when I’m singing in my spare time but my voice can’t handle it for a few days after.
