Impossible Germany vocal


Recommended Posts

Just a personal observation, but has anyone else had the thought that the vocal is a bit "scratchy" compared to the

live versions? I mean, in some places it sounds like Jeff failed to clear his throat before launching into the song.

From an aesthetic point of view, I find it kind of jarring compared to the live versions.

Well, Jesus, etc. will probably always be my favorite Wilco song, but right now Impossible Germany

is a close second. I just think the crackiness of the vocal is not suited to the overall sweetness of the song.

I think it's because "I'm" so enamored with the song that I wish he had picked a different vocal track. But

like I said, it was more of an observation from comparing it to the live versions I've been assembling. To each

his own. I think this is the first song (perhaps from listening to it so damn much) of Wilco's where I listen to

various parts of it and think about how I might have changed it if I was recording it or mixing it.
