RIGHT, MAKES ME HOPE SHE WAITS A DECADE FOR HER NEXT ALBUM JUST FOR THE MASS WRIST SLITS!czr187 wrote: ↑January 1st, 2019, 1:48 pmI saw that but my main point was she could've been "hugging her babies and man at home" nice warm and comfortable instead of out in the cold rain performing...only to have "fans" running around like morons saying her voice is deteriorating.
I think the thought just came to me after reading the dumb shit some ungrateful fucks wrote here.![]()
We both can seduce but darling, you hold me prisoner...

Agreed.wellokaythen wrote: ↑December 31st, 2018, 7:56 pmOh, and also, I find the logic of "she can't perform Liberation songs, they're not well known enough" logic is kinda paradoxical imo.
One of the main ways in which songs *become* more well known is through being performed. The more regularly she performs them, the more exposure they get and the more people get to know them. Some people act like her newer songs can *only* appeal to hardcore stans, which just isn't true. She could have easily designed a setlist tailored to casuals/non-fans that included a mix of old songs and new ones, with the former being used for recognisability and nostalgia factor to hook the casuals in and the latter being there to get them interested in both her as an artist and her catalogue in general beyond just the nostalgia factor.

She definitely could have included Fall In Line, maybe left out COOB? And Accelerate could've been instead of Fighter.
The phrase of "_______ is performing their greatest hits", is just a saying. Basically your greatest hits are songs you choose to perform in the said occasion, and that's that.
Remember how on Jimmy Kimmel or Fallon or wherever, they talked about what she's gonna perform at Liberation Tour? She said something like both older and newer songs. And Liberation Tour ended up to be mostly Liberation, thank god.

And look how it turned out, she was praised to high heavens, introduced the album to thousands of fans and everyone are happy. It's really not that hard of a concept.

Song-choices aside, I can't praise her stage presence, workmanship and outfit enough!
She was on fire!
Time was completely inadequate to fully present any one song properly, but she was on point. I've noticed she likes to project EXTRA strongly with the vocals when she's kind of "presenting" to GB, performing her classics etc. The vocals were bit too much but it's her artistic choice and I've accepted that.
Liberation Tour showcased her vocals in all of their variety and layers, so her instrument itself is intact.

The voice was clean in GIAB because she just came out and was still relatively warm. And the more she sang, the rougher she sounded.

The most folks will talk about was her outfit and not in a terrible way. She just needs some new uptempo music and she needs to go back to using that pop voice. It would have been so much better if she had a big CURRENT hit to move the crowd or perhaps a duet with a younger artist to wake up the young'ins. The medley songs were not that ambitious and there is no need to make them more complicated with the extra ad-libs, runs, and extra belts. I think she has a great tone but it lost when she belts and cuts the lyrics after going over timing slots with the notes.
The mic is made to amplify the voice and I wish she would let the mic do it's job more and let that beautiful tone shine a little more. She honestly also needs just needs a better musical director to to tighten up these live performances sound wise and arrange these songs a little better for performances and around what she can deliver consistently live. She always has the best backgrounds she could stand to rely on them a bit more to keep her breathing in check as well.
But the rest was painfully thin and rough and the low notes were garbled out. And to say she sounded perfect would be a lie. She has such a beautiful tone though, I wish she would've let it shine.

I still think the Medley forced her voice to jump around too often, with that type of weather going from anom to ltbl must have been too taxing. More her teams fault with that weird arrangement. GIAB was great because it wasn't a demanding song and she didn't have to push so hard.Erotica wrote: ↑January 1st, 2019, 4:41 pmThe voice was clean in GIAB because she just came out and was still relatively warm.

just watched the performance again in HD and with a sober outlook...
All things considered, she SLAYED!! It was pouring raining and cold and she hit some amazing notes live! She sounds just as resonant and powerful as ever! On second view, the arrangement isn't so bad I just wish they gave her more time or cut COOB so it didn't come off so rushed, but she looked amazing!

She was very resonant at the start for Genie and even on Fighter. As for the yelling on CHUD, sounded to me more like her talk-sing "rap" voice she was using.FranzJoseph wrote: ↑January 1st, 2019, 5:21 pmpretty sure she had no resonance at all.
I liked Genie and honestly she did really good in Fighter, but that one kind of needs that rough gargling gravel type vocal.
Her absolutely yelling out the verses of CHUD was BAD.

The performance and song choices (specially with those weird remixes) were horrible but she looked amazing. Ice queen.
Is her outfit going viral btw? I saw a lot of people RTing it cause it looked like Lizzie Mcguire's in that movie

I totally agree, smokes from her mouth are coming out during the fighter portion, proving that coldness is already getting in to her.Erotica wrote: ↑January 1st, 2019, 4:41 pmThe voice was clean in GIAB because she just came out and was still relatively warm.
