I know obviously this is by far nowhere near the low point of his vocal quality and abilities, but just the sheer amount of decline in that short span of time is really fucking mind boggling.

Honestly, he treated his voice really poorly. Towards the end of the DM tour, he constantly was changing the way his voice sounded and had almost blown his voice out through shear wear and tear. He also became a lot more of a lazy singer live after mid-1995 where he sang more with his throat and didn't belt notes so he wouldn't strain his voice so much, but that in itself also caused a lot of damage to his voice over time given the fact that he drank, smoke, did drugs, and lived an extremely unhealthy lifestyle every day and night for 5 years. You could hear his voice get a bit deeper, more gravelly, more nasally over time as he began wrecking his voice. He had almost permanent sore throats at times by the back half of the Morning Glory tour and had to skip out on a few gigs. During 1997, his hedonistic behavior and abuse of his voice only increased as the songs on Be Here Now were written for Noel's vocal range, not Liam's, so Liam was constantly pushing the limits of his vocal stamina and range on these songs. And when it came time to perform them live, he couldn't do them night after night, and missed even more gigs than the previous tour due to his vocal chords being wrecked. After just a few months into the tour, Liam had developed severe nodules on his vocal chords, so that o nights where he was able to perform, Noel's acoustic set had to be expanded in length and moved up to start only a half hour into the show in order to give Liam 's voice a rest. Some of the new material, such as number 1 single All Around The World, had to be dropped from the setlist completely because the amount of vocal stamina and upper range use over the entire songs duration (often times upwards of 10 minutes) was no longer feasible given the condition of Liam's voice. By 1998, Liam's voice was constantly horse, cracking, and gave out even on less-demanding songs. It's the kind of thing that happened to Dylan or Ian McCulloch of Echo and the Bunnymen over decades.

If you listen here, you can hear how odd his voice sounds (more deeper and full-bodied) compared to other live shows and studio tracks of the era since at this gig he was literally just belting out as hard as he could with his diaphragm.

It's like you never saw them live in the 90s
