I mean singing for hours and hours on end you can lose your voice, if your not extremely careful. When that happens and you've got another show the next day, you can't always sing live. Cut them some slack.
@@moss4138 Ah, spoken like someone who doesn't understand the music business. The only musicians that resort to backing tracks are pop stars with little to no musical talent. So no, I won't cut them some slack. If real musicians and vocalists can tour for 30 years doing 2-3 hour shows every night, so they can these hacks. Otherwise, they should find a new career. If you know how to sing, it isn't an issue. Fans pay for a live show, they should expect a live show. If you can't do a live show, go home and find a new job.
But when she said she messed up the lyrics to her own song and didn't care, I was laughing my ass off. But I gotta say I got mad respect for her confidence
This is why artists, not just singers, should not feel afraid or embarrassed when they make a mistake. It shows that they're human and not some perfect robot.
Pop has got to be among the most difficult genres to do live well because the recordings are so produced. Bringing that level of perfection to a live show must be a real uphill battle. Plus they put on such dramatic shows with dancing and sets and whatnot. Rock has just that raw energy about it that you can just kind of power through a mess up or two and it is all fair game as it is about the energy not the perfection.
@@deadstump4970 sadly a lot of the time they lipsync it or actually have post-processing done to it live while they're singing. Infact David Draiman while doing Sound of Silence on live TV gives a glare towards the tv studio's audio guys because they used autotune at one part, and he absolutely despises it. It's actually kind of hard to hear if you don't have a trained ear, I only found out about it after hearing a vocal coach catch it, and so I looked in to it, and his glare is intentional because he was NOT amused.
@@deadstump4970 And then you have Classical music with all those perfection-demanding competitions and whatnot, but those Classical pieces also have *studio recordings* >A> Now imagine the standard of THOSE audiences =0=
I'm not a big pop fan, but I have to give these singers credit for not only singing live so beautifully but handling the mistakes so professionally. I have so much respect for them!
seems pretty easy to f- up tose words, i had the song written downa while ago just to sing it for fun in my spare time and even when looking at the paper i screwed it up
I bloody love Demi Lovato and that just made me love her even more she’s such a sweetheart I know a lot of people don’t like her but I think she is so so cool
@ጌረልርጕየጎክጕ ꎇꍏꈤ bc most of those people prefer to jugde someone by her past and her problems like the addiction and the od. That's how low people are. She didn't hurt anyone but herself, and still is criticized for it
@@TopGamerPT I mean I’m not gonna hate on her (or you) but she does body shame people and really has something against Taylor Swift (criticism and stuff)
@@jor4229 yes, and IQ’s are not registered by %. Therefore if you had, say, a 200 IQ, that still is not necessarily a 100% IQ, because there is no TOP and there is no BOTTOM, which are two vital things that a percentage needs to have in order to work. Therefore I was simply pointing out the fact that they had incorrectly used the IQ formula. Because in order to use a percentage, you have to have something already there, as in if I had a pie and I ate the whole pie,then I had 100% of the pie. But when using an IQ there is no pie (figuratively) so there is nothing to be a percentage of. That is why IQ’s are registered by a number, and the greater the number, the higher the IQ, because it is impossible to use percentages correctly
I can hear my favorite singers sing every one of their songs perfectly on my phone, hearing them live is something else. Them going through minor difficulties, giggling bc they forgot lyrics, and just being adorably flawed like everybody else is special to me.
Demi is a boss, that was some colds but she still went through her performance. As of Tailor, Sia, and Ariana well, the show must go on, right? Hehe, these ladies are all glorious talents. And Ariana with her voice soaring live as it is in the studios, just wow! All I've got left to spell out is... R-E-S-P-E-C-T .
I love when celebrities sing live and if they mess up they just laugh it off. I mean, how many times will you see a celebrity mess up like it’s kind of special for the audience
thank you for showing a compilation of what the world doesnt see, its hard to be perfect but its fun to be able to be human and not get pressure. i needed this
Sia and Mariah Carey both cracked me up. But at least we all know that they're the real deal. No lip-syncing or autotuning... I have nothing but respect for these ladies.
This was great. Really shows that they put their all into their shows and still make it fun and have fun with it all if they mess up. That’s dedication!
Personally, I don't like the fact that singers need stuff like this to prove that they sing live, I just find it a bit weird that lipsyncing is still a thing
It depends on the situation ☺️ Lip syncing has its place if the performance has lots of high energy choreo. It’s really hard to sing well and dance to difficult and intense choreography at the same time without panting down the mic 😂🤦🏼♀️ Obviously I’m not a recording artist or anything but I used to do stage plays and musicals in my late teens. I have asthma so I found it incredibly difficult to do Bob Fosse inspired choreo and jump straight into controlled singing in Chicago 😂🤦🏼♀️ It depends on the situation imo ☺️
@@TallulahFoxxx Damn, I'm not even into performance (I compose) but I know of Fosse and that sounds really difficult! I can barely sing well when I demo stuff sitting down in a studio lol
@@TallulahFoxxx there is never a situation where lipsyncing is justified. Broadway performers dance and sing simultaneously 8 shows per week and pretty much always sound amazing. They prove that it's possible. If you sound like shit because you're dancing, there are 2 options...1) stop dancing, 2) train more. If you simply can't sing live without sounding like crap? You aren't actually a good singer. Singers should sing live. Period.
@@carr0760 Wow 😂🤷🏼♀️ This is coming off a bit rude ma’am. Have you personally done it? Because as I’ve just stated, I have asthma and so it isn’t a case of “training more” 😂🤷🏼♀️ Asthma is very common and I guarantee there are singers who have it too...so should all recording artists with asthma just stand statically in huge arenas? 😂🤷🏼♀️ Even disregarding the asthma, it’s still not easy no matter how much you train. Everyone who dances energetically will naturally breathe more deeply, which can affect their vocals. It’s not all about the singing itself. It’s also about the *performance and showmanship* that makes it entertaining for the crowd to watch. 🙂 As you stated yourself, Broadway performers do it all the time. Key part: *they do it all the time*. Recording artists don’t. Their performance schedule and format varies constantly. It’s asking a lot for a recording artist to practice a full set, flat out with choreo, every day... just in case the occasion calls for it a few times a year 😂🤦🏼♀️ I personally love more than just the singing part of performances so if there’s an epic dance break with spins, kicks, flips and splits, I’m totally fine with a lip sync section 😂👌🏻
@@reharm_reality He’s legendary but his style is notoriously difficult 😂🤦🏼♀️ My favourite routines of his are in the movie of Sweet Charity. It’s called The Rich Man’s Frug. If you watch it on RU-vid the girl with the long ponytail is captivating. Fun fact: I watched an interview with that dancer and Fosse was such a perfectionist he made them run it thousands of times: the fake ponytail was sooo heavy and she had to swing it around so much, it gave her traction alopecia and got infected 😭 So she was already in agony with her scalp, but after watching it all on playback, Fosse decided her “feet looked too big” 😭😂🤦🏼♀️ He made her wear shoes in a size too small so it “looked better”. So she had to do it all again, a million more times, with a bleeding bald patch on her head and squished blistered feet 😭😂 It must have been sooooo worth it though because it’s a masterpiece 😍
I love how most of them just push through and even laugh through their mistakes. Messing up live is so very very embarrassing and they don’t care, they just keep singing/dancing and laugh along with the audience.
Any experienced vocalist knows that voice breaks or cracks will happen to anyone and at any time. So many random things can contribute to it, many people think that the occasional break or crack makes them a bad singer, when they might actually be potentially good but don't realise that everyone has breaks.
@impr0visati0n she doesn’t fake them, she just has a backing track so she doesn’t damage her vocal cords ( especially if u have 32 songs like on sweetener lol )
I remember Whitney Houston would purposely sing her songs differently in concerts. A different register, different beat, a remix, putting more curls in places. Saying that if you wanted to listen to her sing it like the recording, then listen to the recording. The concert was to experience the song in another interpretation.
Melanie Martinez does that. She adds a little bit onto the end of the principal on her tour in Chicago, and does bits of new instrumental while she dances.
i love seeing the little mistakes that people make, especially when they laugh or joke about it. it’s clear they’re having a lot of fun. one time, i saw tessa violet open for cavetown, and she messed up halfway, laughed and said something along the lines of “oh, man, i don’t even know the words to my own song-“ and even through the mistake, she brought such an insane amount of energy to the show. i honestly didn’t even know who she was back then but goddamn was that a memorable experience!
