I was a sound engineer for 11 years this concert is all live. to do a backing track she would need to do a recent version then played back, then would have to remember every new addition and not ad libb at all which she is constantly doing. it's impossible to back this performance with a track. If you did it would have to be a recent recording anyway, what would be the point if in fact she couldn't sing still. When you hear poor isolation of her or Beyonce recently it's because they can't hear themselves and they dubbed it for television which they do with everyone even if they don't want it done. If ear pieces are correct they can hear correctly you'll get a great isolation. It would be like a partially deaf person trying to sing without proper compression and modulation in their ears. It
Amazing!! So question for the professional: at 2:49 when she sings “sound” what happened there? To me it sounds like it’s the track trying to come through
Ive always been a fan but also I've been honest with her voice in recent years. This is surprising even to me. Ive always said all she needed was rest and she would be back but I didn't know she would be THIS back lol
Is it me but everytime she looses weight her voice gets clearer and stronger. She looks gorgeous and her vocals are so good. We have Mariah for a long run still and the songbird supreme is still in the building.
+Krayola D First of all, it's clearly live. Second, she means ugly on the inside, not outside, well it works both ways. Third, you used a line from MC's "Obsessed". Fourth, who dafuq are you?
some of her runs seem seamless again. 2014, while her voice developed, it seemed to have lost its agility and seems labored, but in this video, some of her runs are so reminiscent of her past runs, I love it.
if and when she doesn't hit a note there are news on tv and magazines, talk shows about it, but when she sings properly no one cares... haters kinda lurking.. this year's gone bad for them, sorry :)
+Krayola D and who the fuck are you so that you replying every comment and talk bulshit about mc? lol I don't wanna stop you. let them see who youre . 😂
+Andrew Christian He has no talent clearly can't even get 100 subscribers on his channel, his talent is talking about how shitty is life is, so its obvious this person has nothing but hate since he/she hates their own life so badly.
+Krayola D lol sorry first I dislike your videoes but when I found out you are pretty awesome I like the jerk chicken video but I forgot to erase my dislikes on other .
Where was your seat ? Balcony? Loge? Do you remember your row? I'm going to the concert in 10 days and I'm scare to be too far from the stage :) THANK YOUUUU
+Krayola D i know some major parts were lipped. ur comment earlier said, "she's obviously lip syncing." be clear that u were referring to certain major parts only because ur statement is obviously not true. it must've been "she lipped the later major parts" because she is not lipsyncing from the beginning until the later major parts.
Literally for anyone that is so delusional, this is almost as atrocious as last years. Notice how the music is blasting so you can't hear her crack or scream. It's painful to listen to as a professional singer.
if that lady was singing here in brazil we would NEVER be sitting like that. at least a standing ovation
I love Brazil crowds. You all so energetic.
In chile happened the same !!
but now? lmao

I agree with everything except the Beyonce portion. She never has bad mic feeds lol.
She did. Look up "if I were a boy" I know they played it on the Howard Stern show a couple years ago.
Amazing!! So question for the professional: at 2:49 when she sings “sound” what happened there? To me it sounds like it’s the track trying to come through
Yess, her tone and clarity is back
+Krayola D Not all of it is lipped. O Holy Night had more lipped notes
+Krayola D
This Hater Again 😂
+Krayola D
This isn't Facebook little girl, there isn't a "Like" button.
+Krayola D

+Krayola D

I'll Wait.

It's the opposite, look at 2017, her beltings were owesome
Her prime is back!! ...she almost sound like the 1994...she sings smoothly,effortless, and clearer !! Like it !! (sorry if my English is mistake)

Lol it's because we pay singers to sing well. We critique when we aren't getting our money's worth. Stop trying to be smart.

+Andrew Christian
He has no talent clearly can't even get 100 subscribers on his channel, his talent is talking about how shitty is life is, so its obvious this person has nothing but hate since he/she hates their own life so badly.

Why she sounds different throughout the song?
all i want...all i really want is a husband...yasss 😂
Did you get it,
Why is it under ''comedy"? Just curious.
Was she getting after her kid in the middle of a performance? haha #mommymoment
lmao does no one see the dancers?
Where is the mic feed? 😂
😂😂😂
+Krayola D lol No, she is not. are u deaf?
+Artus Enriquez I'm seeing her in February and as much as I'd LOVE to say that this was 100% live, it isn't.
+Krayola D i know some major parts were lipped. ur comment earlier said, "she's obviously lip syncing." be clear that u were referring to certain major parts only because ur statement is obviously not true. it must've been "she lipped the later major parts" because she is not lipsyncing from the beginning until the later major parts.
+Krayola D did u start reading my last statement in the middle? cause i mentioned about it being not completely live at the beginning of the comment.
her voice sounds so tired
Cause she is a hardworking woman.
+Krayola D Yes she is hardworking women
+Krayola D just like you! Retire commenting stupid thoughts now daaaahlin
+Infinity Lamb Of Mariah let him hate. It wont fix his face and status
Spon back
I love mariah but that serial killer snowman has to go.
+Amanda j lmao hahahaha
No hate but this performance sounds just like the AIWFCIY performance December 11th 2015 so it's lipped
