Jonny, you're good at studying faces.
Have you noticed Taylor's eyes?
They don't seem to smile.
I've noticed that from the very beginning. I even thought at times, he was really holding back alot of anger towards Simon, when Simon dised him. He's one of my favorites, but, he bombed out last night, IMO, and there IS something there that makes me wonder about his personality.

Now that you mention it ... There was a photo of him posted on the thread (which I can't find now, wouldn't you know!) taken by the press that shows what you describe. But that might be because he could be uncomfortable without music. When he's on stage--even during last night's awful performance--he seems to light the place up.
