    The cheering isn't live recorderd... The Dutch Producer also selled his way of post processing in the format. So What you hear isn't annoing audience, it is an annoing format :-D. For example listen to the crappy laughing @ 3.46 min then you get it.

    Awww I love how Will.i.am turned a complete 180, from saying he didn't want Jaz to sing additional songs to completely supporting it when he heard that Jaz wanted to sing a song he wrote and had so many feelings for. These two renditions of "A Team" and "Ordinary People" are genuinely the best I have heard, and make me want to listen to them over and over again.

    First song: White lips, pale face
    Breathing in the snowflakes
    Burnt lungs, sour taste
    Light's gone, days end
    Struggling to pay rent
    Long nights, strange men
    As they say
    She's in the Class A Team
    Stuck in her daydream
    Been this way since 18
    But lately, her face seems
    Slowly sinking, wasting
    Crumbling like pastries
    And they scream
    The worst things in life come free to us
    'Cause we're just under the upper hand
    And go mad for a couple grams
    we don't wanna go outside tonight
    And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
    Or sells love to another man yee yee
    It's too cold outside
    For angels to fly
    Angels to flyyy + #$%ahi hayyy#$%
    Angels to flyyy
    Angels to die
    Second Song:
    Girl, I'm in love with you
    this ain't the honeymoon
    We're passed the infatuation phase
    We're right in the thick of love
    At times we get sick of love
    It seems like we argue every day
    I know I misbehaved
    And you've made your mistakes
    And we've both still got room left to grow
    And though love sometimes hurts
    I still put you first
    And we'll make this thing work
    But I think we should take it slow
    We're just ordinary people
    We don't know which way to go
    'Cause we're ordinary people
    Maybe we should take it slow
    Take it slow, oh-oh, this time we'll take it slow
    Take it slow, oh-oh, this time we'll take it slow

    I never liked the song, 'Ordinary People' before I heard this rendition of it a few days ago. Now I watch this video a few times a day. I always loved the 'A Team' song, but this was the best I've ever heard it sung. What a fabulous singer! The audience should not have kept trying to clap in time with the music, their noise clapping and shouting was so distracting. Yes, clap, cheer, shout and stand up for such a stunning performance, but please hold back until the end. Jaz, what a great name as well. Plus, well done the musicians coming in so well part-way through the second song. That's hard to get right, especially with that style of music. When a singer can turn a song you don't like in to one you love, that's a very special talent.
