The day Reba McEntire lip sings is the day I know the world is going to end. She's the Tina Turner of country music, the shows are amazing and you can look at tons of videos and even though she sounds the same live it's the real deal. I believe Reba, Celine Dion, Cher, Tina Turner, and Shania Twain are the woman who deserve respect in the music business they made a career out of nothing. And do you see them whining or complaining about their hard work? Hell Nah!
I saw Reba live last year in Vegas, I had no idea how good she was until I saw her live. What a show !! I have seen 50 different shows in Vegas, and hers is in the top 5. Don't miss her if you have the chance to see her !
@dugite100 Reba and Tina both earn the highest respect for me also, but if you look at it all of them came from poverty. That's the only reason I included them all, but I think Shania does earn a little more respect from me because of all she's recently went through.
Funny story of this performance was that Narvel, her husband and manager, told Reba that he wanted her to do this performance from up over the audience. She said "NO WAY". Narvel said "Well, ok. If you insist. But...Garth Brooks would do it" So, with that, Reba became determined to do it and this performance was filmed.
no i remember hearin' her tell this story, but the idea was 4 her 2 b lowered from the center of the huston astro-dome, it wasn't this performance. That was a great story though! LOL Luv how Narvel got her 2 do that! haha
My step-uncle used to be Reba's touring Saxophone and Guitar player in the early to mid 1990's. We used to get tickets and backstage passes every time Reba came to Huntsville, Alabama. Here stage show was AMAZING, and she was such a classy and kind woman as I was lucky enough to meet her a few times. I'll never forget those concerts. Amazing.
@icydarcystormy10 If you've ever been to a Reba concert, you know that she does not lip sing. That is an insult. You can tell her voice warms up during the concert and if there are her mic messes up, there is no vocals that continue to play. Reba is the real deal, go to a concert and you'll see. The only thing she lip sings on is videos, but everyone does that, I believe that's common knowledge. I assure you that is her voice live.
@HarleyBumgarner But... But...Everyone knows nobody sounds as good when they sing live. What these "lip singer" accusers fail to realize is that Reba (and many other still active artists) made their name before all the studio trickery was available and autotune for live concerts didn't exist. Todays artists are a joke, some are decent singers but many are total garbage without technical help hence the crys of "lip singing" when a real singer does her job.
@TinaDion94 With you on Tina and Reba as they crawled over broken glass to create their careers, the others not so much although Cher comes close. It's amazing what a partner with music industry pull can do, talented ladies who worked hard but not in the same league as Tina and Reba when it comes to the pure guts they displayed early in their careers. IMHO
