there'll always be a few things maybe several things that you're gonna find really difficult to forgive

This interview includes JD singing a brief portion of You'll Be Back from Hamilton and regardless of your opinions on Hamilton the musical I am rather blown away by how conventionally good JD's voice sounds during it. I've already known for a long time that JD does in fact have good vocal technique and he has had this technique for over a decade and his occasionally abrasive vocals are a conscious choice but this really put it into stark reality. Everyone who says John Darnielle can't sing is wrong & I'm not convinced they've listened to more than a couple songs by him
