What the hell? Are these "horrible" messages just a troll? I can't believe how much there are those. I'm not a fan but she can sing live. I dunno how people have fucked up ears because I do a lot of music, sing, play guitar, piano. I can tell difference between wrong notes. She sings just fine live.
Fuck you. What the hell is wrong with you? Do you play and compose music? Do you sing? If you say that she can't sing live it is just because you hate her for sometihng else than her singing abilities.
TuomioK xD yes i did music :) I dont hate her, she actually has a great personnality, shes beautiful, she made some nice music, but rly, her live's singing hurts, sorry. :3
Daniel Thomas No?... She doesn't use playback. She also uses live back-up singers. So tell me: What the fuck is so bad in her singing live? Because she does sing in tune and basically sounds the same as in record. Only thing is that sometimes she is dancing AND singing so that makes it lot more difficult. So I honestly don't understand the critique. For example I saw Bruno Mars Super Bowl performance. That was nothing spectacular in terms on singing.
I never really listened to her music before, and my 16 year old son told me she had an awsome voice, and now I agree. She is so beauitful too, love her eyes. Be Blessed Ms. Perry
I don't really know why that breathy voice in the beginning was necessary, but that falsetto voice on the first verse of the chorus and that transition to the chest voice in the second verse was really nice.
I think it's just a coincidence that all the people saying she can't sing are women, jealous? Btw she looks absolutely GORGEOUS and she sings pretty well live
I'm a guy and I can honestly say sh can't sing live. Same with Rihanna. They both have engineers who alter their voices in the studio with auto-tune and synthesizers. Sad really. They manage get away with it because of there looks.
Anyone who has actually ever sang live with a band in one ear and a crowd in the other would find her performance in this particular instance like a lightning ⚡
Rainbowglimpse lol no, I like Lady Gaga, 4th Impact, Tori Kelly, Ariana Grande, etc. They are all good singers. You really have the nerve to say I don't have the right taste in music? She is not comparable to them but she is not as bad as people make her out to be. No, she does not sound terrible, that's exaggerating. This wasn't the best but it wasn't bad.
I'm sitting here reading the comments and laughing. Mainly at the ones that say she can't sing and the one that says if she didn't have all that makeup on she wouldn't be as big as she is😂 *wipes tears* 1.) you have to realise,when a singer is as big as katy...the more they sing in say a month the weaker their voice gets. Also when she dances/runs around the stage it affects their breathing which makes it hard to sing and dance at the same time. You have to remember it's really hard to do what katy does ecspecially when she's on a world wide tour as she's singing for a couple of hours every night for basically a year. I personally think she's got one of the most beautiful voices wether it's acoustic or pop,so from now one think outside the box as to why her voice may sound rustic,cause I for sure can tell you it isn't cause she can't sing. 2.) who cares if she doesn't look attractive without makeup (btw she does😸) it's not about that when your a singer,it's about how you sing,god.
Are you fucking kidding me? I'm a musician, and i can tell that she has a perfect voice... Listen some other songs live, and you'll see! Her abilities are unbelievable...
Why so much hate? ...Why can you have so much hate?...if you dont like Katy, just dont watch her, simple as that :) ... she wont be talentless only because you think that ;)
This is actually a very good performance. Just because she didn't sing it exactly like the studio version (which she won't ever do because she likes to sing them different each time) doesn't mean she can't sing. You people think you know about singing because you've watched one single video about "learn how to sing" and you think that's enough. Not all voices are the same, sometimes the singer decides to sing some verses this way instead of that way just because. Not necessarily because she can't reach some high note or it's too damn hard for her to keep. Just because she likes it better that way. Can't you get it?
i am a musician myself. I play various instruments, one of them being the vocal one. The fact that she is out-of-tune is true. You can ask as many people that "know something about music"
+Katia doceira Excuse me !!!! I had just hit like and I am a Little Monster I love her voice when she sings acoustic and i think you should not say that
Some of you are ridiculous. She isn't horrible live. obviously its going to sound different live. I have heard worse. Id like to see you guys get up on stage and sing live.
To those who says she can't hit her high notes. She uses falsetto to soften the version. Probably to blend into the season, which is Christmas. And this is acoustic version, she don't want to belt noises in this kind of celebration. She remove the vibrato to sound airy, icy and soft. Maybe look up to some of her Firework in her Prismatic World tour, where she sings the right note right.
I'm glad it does not sound perfect like the studio version. True live performance sounds exactly like this. If the artist is truly singing, then he/she can't dance because the would have breath problems with dancing and singing at the same time. If you see an artist dancing and singing, and still sounds perfect, then it is lip sync.
Gounda Mani Nope. If one singer can actually sing while dancing, that means that singer is really talented. To be honest, I hadn't seen any singer use auto tune or lip sync while singing live.
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag Drifting thought the wind Wanting to start again Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin Like a house of cards One blow from caving in Do you ever feel already buried deep Six feet under scream But no one seems to hear a thing Do you know that there's still a chance for you 'Cause there's a spark in you You just gotta ignite the light And let it shine Just own the night Like the Fourth of July 'Cause baby you're a firework Come on show 'em what your worth Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y Baby you're a firework Come on let your colors burst Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down You don't have to feel like a waste of space You're original, cannot be replaced If you only knew what the future holds After a hurricane comes a rainbow Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow And when it's time, you'll know You just gotta ignite the light And let it shine Just own the night Like the Fourth of July 'Cause baby you're a firework Come on show 'em what your worth Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y Baby you're a firework Come on let your colors burst Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon It's always been inside of you, you, you And now it's time to let it through 'Cause baby you're a firework Come on show 'em what your worth Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y Baby you're a firework Come on let your colors burst Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
She may not be perfect at hitting all her notes, but she seems so nice and looks like she really lives and appreciates her fans. So, it think that's better than other singers who may be a better but are not very nice people. Ellie Goulding is and incredible singer, but when she performs she looks so bored and unhappy and ignores all her fans. Kind of puts things in perspective.
+Shay Bater depends on where you put your focus. if you're into good music then you probably go for ellie goulding (dont know her but she's probably more of a musician?)
i love katy perry since her "thinking of you" days and "i kissed a girl" days. she was not popular back then. i'm glad that she has made it on top. i believe in her singing prowess.
These is a comment for all the haters that hate katy and her singing: sometimes when u say she can sing great or good on live sometimes really bright lights are beaming on her face and 2: of all sometimes some a popstars including katy get nervous everybody does sooo ya and if u people agree with me then good but I hope all of those katy haters learn a fucking lesson !! I'm done here!!
Ok your wrong and that's my opoinin, and if u wrote this whole thing, and say: Now please tell me I'm wrong and have 0 clue. Then why did u write it and I'm 11
This Katy perry is so much better than the current version of herself. She's really let herself go. Her current style doesn't suit her and isn't becoming. She needs to stand still and be elegant when she sings and womanly not this teenage party animal look she goes for ATM.
