This Romance Will Be Different For Me

A great video from a performance in Spain, apparently for Radio 3.



Also this one, I Was Dancing In a Lesbian Bar and El Joven Se Estremece, from the same show.



The one strange thing about watching these, for me, is how quiet the crowd is. Nobody's laughing, nobody's getting into it, they just watch and clap politely at the end of every song. It kind of reminds me of when I took my best friend's cousin to a Jonathan show. I'm so used to the crowd being totally into what Jonathan's doing, it kind of floored me. Especially for Lesbian Bar. "Why does this seem so strange to me? OH GOD NOBODY IS SINGING ALONG". Tough crowd.
