Chapter 13 of If I Knew Then has been posted!

I agree about Nick currently being tied as the strongest vocalist. You can literally pinpoint the turnaround on TIU which is absolutely Nick's strongest album vocally. He's always been able to belt for ages but now that nasal tendency is gone. Kevin's got such a smoothness to his voice, it's not as dynamic like you said, but I love hearing it. It's a major reason why I love Do You Remember so much. Like, his voice is an old soul - if that makes sense.

New Love is so much better musically and lyrically than PDA!  The lyrics are actually sexy as opposed to cringe-worthy.

Nick's voice has gotten better and better as it has matured (and I'm sure the voice lessons he took years ago certainly helped with that too).  I think he's become the best vocalist in the group or at least is tied with AJ.  I love Kevin's voice too, but Nick's is more dynamic.

When you post, you can put something in a spoiler box by putting the tags {spoiler}actual spoiler goes here{/spoiler} around what you want to hide in a black box... like this.... and the words will only appear when someone hovers over them.  Just replace the { } with brackets [ ].

You can also just highlight the text you want to hide and click the Spoiler button in the editing menu above where you type your post, but you have to hit Preview to see all of the buttons - they don't show up in the quick reply area at the bottom of the thread.  I hope that makes sense!

what is the spoiler box?

I love all the songs but my absolute favorite is Just Like You Like It ... AJ's voice on that is pure gold.

My top 3 are probably JLYLI, Chances and the way it was.

Overall i think Nick's voice got showcased in a lot of ways on this album and he got to show off how dynamic his voice is.

you are so right about this. PDA makes me cringe lol

I love Nick on New Love. That song in itself vocally is very different from what they normally do. And it's in such a good way. It's what PDA tried to be lyrically, only New Love actually pulls it off.

Literally same, just replace Do You Remember with Best Days! That line Nick sings in New Love is possibly my favourite vocal of his on the album. "I want all of you all over me~~~ in any dark roo~~oo~~om" LOL. I got the album on Vinyl but I haven't had a chance to bust it out yet and listen all the way through with my good headphones. I'm excited to do so, maybe on the long weekend.

So intense!  Thank you!  Hm... love the "It was all a coma" theory.  I love that it's making you question things!  Keep questioning LOL.  Thank you so much for the feedback; I really appreciate it!
