Yesterday in the evening I listened to quite a bit of Stevie Wonder and a little classic Nas (Illmatic).
Today it's been Jars of Clay's Who We Are Instead ahead of the live event later this week.

I think it is intentional.
The vibe and style of the song is inspired by Louis Armstrong’s St. James Infirmary.

His live vocal performances are definitely more sloppy than the studio. You might prefer the studio version of the song.

I just like the Jools Holland live version cause you can see the Humphrey Lyttleton (RIP) band perform.
But he does a better job when the vocals are the center of the song, like this rendition of How to Disappear Completely.

One of the few modern songs that uses the Ondes Martenot.
We didn't even shout out to Johnny Nash (I think he got overshadowed by EVH).
Very interesting guy. He will always be remembered for shooting a guy in the face back in 2007, and being acquitted of the crime in 2009. After the trial was over, Shaver was quoted as saying, “I am very sorry about the incident,” Shaver said outside the courtroom. “Hopefully things will work out where we become friends enough so that he gives me back my bullet.”
HAHA! RIP Billy Joe.
