Thanks!
Where is that from? It looks amazing.

It's from the 1989 tour. I think She'll be bringing the entire set to Hyde park? Since She is headlining the date.

 

[Vazduh]

Anyone listened to the full Giorgio album? I started too quite late last night but then fell asleep.

I didn't like it, tbh.

Where was the concert?

She is headlining and it is one of her actual 1989 tour dates so I hope/assume that she'll bring the full set.

Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Agreed. Nothing particularly bad, some cute song, some forgettable. First three though (Sparks, My Kind and One in a Million) are the stand outs, I love them! Dunno why she left out All About You from the album, could have easily replaced one of the more forgettable tracks!

Anyone listened to the full Giorgio album? I started too quite late last night but then fell asleep.

It's not out until the 16th, right? Just checked Spotify and it's not there.

 

[Electrichapel]

Went to see the Taylor last night. Pretty nice concert, a G rated Monster Ball. Loved the wrist bands that they provided. I never realized how young her fanbase really is. The average age has to be like 11. At 24 we were very old for the crowd.

 

[Brhoom]

idk about my faves getting #1s tho. If Mariah is anything to go by, success will only make them lazy, corpulent, divorced, and vocally-impaired.

I know right? The same thing happened to Christina, have you heard lotus? She said it herself she was not inspired when she made it, and she is divorced, and at time when her voice should flourish is deteriorating and she can't go over a C#5 without chocking and splattering her vocal chords, while Mariah is still Belting resonant F5's is still performing everywhere, finishing an album, movie ,another secret project and two tours in one year, she must be really lazy...

 

[Brhoom]

Everyone talks about how Mariah's prime was until 1996 but her prime was until 2005

Listen to this and be ashamed of yourself.

Meanwhile, Mariah is belting F5s? Resonant F5s? Sweetie, even her C5s are a damn struggle these days.

Mimi's voice is deader than Britney's knees.

Would have been a perfect song if it weren't for the "Me-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh" part. That one part makes the whole song sound from two years ago.

Is she working with ANY notable producers?

I think it mainly Toby Gad and for what i could find:

• Jim Eliot (Olly Murs, Kylie Minogue);
• Autumn Rowe (Zendaya, Alexandra Burke);
• Wayne Wilkins (Cheryl, Natasha Bedingfield);
• TMS (Sinead Harnett, Emeli Sande).

edit:

I really like this! Anyway to get her album soon (legally) if I am in the US?

September 11th, but i don't know if the release date is worldwide or UK/Europe.

Your stanning is more delusional than mine sometimes. Here is Mariah's latest concert, where she sounds 10X better than Christina ever could. Has Xtincta decided to leave her chair yet to make more music or was Lotus her farewell album?

 

[royalan]

HA! Leading with that termite-ridden rendition of Vision of Love?

Homegirl needs to just stop trying it with that song.

The song name describes the song perfectly.

Wow...

I mean, if you're going to try and rip on anyone, would you really choose Igloo? Mess.

Edit: I wonder if this will go viral because of how shit it is.

 

[Vazra]

Azalean at least can say Iggy has some sort of impact now I suppose.

 

[<+)O Robido O(+>]

In a little while
I'll be gone
The moment's already passed
Yeah it's gone
And I'm not here
This isn't happening
I'm not here
I'm not here

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Get your lives tbh

Such a good performance

Spoiler

although I think the video is stretched to make her look thinner

 

[Vazra]

She also fakes her accent like Iggy when singing and sounds like Iggy without the Australian Accent.

Xtincta could never.

I can't speak for the good sis, but if I were to guess, I'd say the term refers to the excessive use of runs, grunts, and ornaments that lack any sense of musicality or intent beyond "I can

That videos proved everything I said, foggy, weak low notes and throaty upper register, and I love how she claims that her notes are raspy LOL more strain than rasp and rasp can damage your voice so I guess she is trying to destroy it as fast as she can.

Coming for vision of love? The best debut song by a female artist? The song that started every female career after it? The song that to this day is remembered worldwide by everyone? The song that made every Jamaican in 2015 sing along with her when she performed it there?

Now enjoy these performances by Mariah Carey and hear for the first time in your life what a singer with a good sense of pitch sounds like.

I love Christina and she is my fav after Mariah, but I don't understand why people come for Mariah when their fav is MILES behind Mariah in terms of vocal ability.

And who decides this? Y'all?

Please explain how her grunts in that performance I linked lack musicality. She's completely on key and on the melody.

I define runs and grunts as being "excessive" when they cause a singer to fall off key and lose the melody (case in point, Mariah Carey WHENEVER she sings Vision of Love these days), not just when a singer I don't like does them. Y'all better sip some tea.

 

[twobear]

The song that to this day is remembered worldwide by everyone?

 

[Brhoom]

Ok guys I have a question/game type of thing.
What if someone asked you who is (your fave)? And you can only make him listen to only one song from him/her to make him know your fave.
That song must be unique to the artist that when he listen to it it doesn't compare to other songs or does make him remember another artist.
So who is leona Lewis?

Christina enunciates perfectly in that song. Her vocals are a far cry from mushmouth.

But what about your fave? She may be able to squeak out a high note on a full moon, but she hasn't been able to sing an actual verse without going flat, falling off melody, and generally sounding like her voice needs a glass of ovaltine please.

I don't have an issue with accepting when Mariah is a vocal mess but please, admit when yours is.

She sounds GREAT. And her improv skill is NOT to be questioned.
