Alicia Keys and Jamie Foxx - Georgia On My Mind Live Grammy

[MrLansing01]

This song disgusts me.Jamie Foxx work worked very well in the film "Ray" but in here He act on behalf of Ray Charles and This is not by a long shot

[ErikSoRealz]

Jamie sounded higher than Alicia. Lol

[xPr0RAGINGKILLA]

ray is a legend and always will be but i'm glad that there is someone trying to keep his music alive

[NightFlasher34]

ray charles is the legend.. and not jamie foxx maybe later

[TheBennben]

Naw yo why did yall fuck up my favorite song!!!! dammmm man!!

[jib2182]

I thought it was pretty good

[RazZfEvilution]

This is....horrid....sorry.....just­...horrid..

[MusicOfKeng]

It sounded good at first, I don't know what happened with the rest. Its like watching a VIKING's game..

[MXMIKE25]

fucking awful

[JustTonyF]

Awesome.

[YoungXianTV]

Jamie Foxx is something else LOL. Singing, acting, comedy, he's got it all. He's a triple threat.

[kakmolnia]

@YoungXianTV quad threat lol...singing,acting,comedy and playing piano

[partyallnight28]

They're not trying to top the original. It's called a tribute. Doesn't matter what quality it is, it was in memory of Ray so sit down. But personally i thought this did is justice!

[KareemKravitz]

stop hatin man... both are talented cats and you cant expect anyone to play on ray charlesisses level... nahmean... so as a tribute, it works...

[bassistdc]

Alicia is wonderful. Jamie is not IMO

[carlawon]

horrible.

[poopydoodler123]

oops,I think i stumbled into a black church again

[seansocheap]

all right guys calm your tiddies, it's just a tribute

[gaylealstrom]

I loved this.

[tospicy4ya]

Rubbish

[HeshamK1994]

@tospicy4ya Hey.. FUCK YOU

[tospicy4ya]

@HeshamK1994 its fuckin shit like you...

[Loewenkaefer112]

220 people are stupid...

[honeegrrl]

Keep in my mind, this is a tribute performance, Jamie and Alicia are paying tribute to Ray Charles in their own way. All they are doing is paying homage to a great artist.

[crismandarinas007]

She's beautiful!!! I love Alicia Keys and Jamie Foxx, but specially I LOVE Ray Charles, and the first part of this performance of Georgia, one of my favourite songs was really good, but the second part was ruined... That is a good lesson for every of us, we shouldn't change too much the classic songs!! Sometimes the result is good, but it isn't always, and that's a pity, because this performance would have been incredible!!

[Jrspyral23]

Wow ... they fuked it up ... ray is th man ...these fuktard butchered the song so sad

[honeegrrl]

@Jrspyral23 I don't think Ray would be upset.

[Seniioritaa]

2 GREAT ARTISTS ... JUST AMAZING.....

[urwholefamilydied]

why couldn't they just do a nice version of this... instead of a christina augulera version? Why do black people have to add a million extra notes and go up and down the scale?

[ken5186]

is just amazing

[jfm2567]

Absolutely Wonderful !

[MrSmarito]

oh non le massacre , rip ray charles robinson, contentez vous de chanter vos compos c mieux je pense !!

[divad44]

What the fuck did i just witness? My god that was terrible.

[thetigerevil]

@divad44 WTF!!!!!!???? Are you fucking deaf?

[TheGarnerBand]

Nailed it!!!

[brasman8]

I liked the movie Ray, with Jamie playing Charles, but this..... :(

[straponjane]

Foxx was good and correct me if I'm wrong but Alicia Keys is shit and she has a weird singing face like she's having a stroke

[TheBobsaget23]

why the hell would they fuck up such an amazing song

[jsmoody511]

@TheBobsaget23 if this is fucking the song up to you, i could only imagine how upset you'd be if justin beiber and miley cyrus duet to it.

[xCoolCatTryHardx]

jamie was good. she sucked...

[mynameisyasser]

The best our generation could do....

no need for any further complaints

[vintageguits]

quincy jones should be stripped of everything for arranging this

[Jorgenezz10]

I was reading the comments and listening and I was like "Why the hell are people hating? this sounds good to me..." Then halfway through the video I realized why :l they had something going and killed it...

[1bls]

Don't worry Mr. Charles, you will stop spinning soon.

[GodsGirlis]

got this going on

[martinlehfeldt]

she's very overrated, and the only reason people like her is because she's pretty. she really can not sing people. sorry but hearing is believing

[iamLionman]

@martinlehfeldt you are tone deaf then my friend, i can tune a piano by ear and shes spot on, jamie too

[alphaheiti]

how can someone dislike this.....

[lokafparis]

Ahahah 200 dislikes to this performance...?Fuck you guys

[aknowneemus]

god bless hoagy and ray but wtf is this shit?

[pedrinme]

OHH GRAMMY AWARDS. YOU CHANGED THIS BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCES FOR JUSTIN BIEBER AND GAGA??? WHAT A PAIN!!

[GuitarFitch]

Excellent! Sorry to the deaf ones here.

[asher21africa]

me- great version.

1:20 comes along.

me- damnnn (clicked red X and leaves page)

[mmamanny100]

They fucked up this song

[marcdknow]

didnt enjoy the personal interpretation ...

[shapsai62]

jesus christ i was not expecting that... ruined my entire soul mood

[desbree28]

I don't like this...it's just a performance...not soul...

[zefkezfku]

No soul.... No shivers.... Nothing....

[genesisi]

perfect example of how commerical r'n'b can totally bastardise a peice of musial genius from the late Ray Charles. He would be turning in grave if he heard this.

[XGodsXPlanX]

@genesisi You don't know a dead mans' perspective so shut the fuck up and stop talking.

[genesisi]

@XGodsXPlanX - I dont need to know the thoughts of a dead man to know that this rendition was a about as fucked up as your face, you ignorant pric. Read the comments here, the majority of people agree with me, so take your shit elsewhere you massive fucking penis.

[Ebredon]

@genesisi How stupid can you be? The version is good, is not soul, clearly, but if you want to listen to the same old song over and over just go listen a Ray's album. He is the best, but that doesn't make any other version bad just because... And you couldn't know what he thought even if he was alive.. Clearly he wouldn't tell somebody like you, who thiks he knows it all.

[synorz]

they fucked up the song they fucked up a classic

[vijaydj1993]

@synorz say no fuckin more :/

[evertonmadrugaful]

ruined the song.

[nidnidya]

Great rendition, but i don't like the way Alicia sang it. Jamie Foxx was great as usual.

[CL137626]

ray charles needs to get up there and kick their asses

[andieemily326]

Horrible.

[babbiegeorge]

thats my name GEORGIA xxx

[JazzyJasmine36756]

Great, great song. Bad, bad performance.

[drummaboy15]

...seriously how can you dislike this?

[maigles]

I'm surprised Quincy let this shit go down and didn't beat them like Joe Jackson beat lil micheal.

[maigles]

What the fuck is this shit?

[EnVanoWachin]

mal mal mal!

[Delroxorz]

Terrible.

[quercetum153]

I can't believe Jamie and Alicia had sex right there on stage.

[1empathy]

Somebody once said "don't fuck with the classics" this is why.

[anyonefindAMERICA1]

@1empathy I hear ya! Glam soul!

[GtrVieth]

@1empathy its their own rendition, stupid.

[1empathy]

@GtrVieth What part of "don't fuck with the classics" do you not understand?

[Lordinchen]

@1empathy you found the words I was looking for to discribe how much they fucked up this song. Thank you! 

[1empathy]

@Lordinchen i actually feel bad as i got alot of thumbs up for that comment and as a musician i i know it's easier to criticize than to get up and play, but i really hate that arrangement ;o)

[honeegrrl]

@1empathy It's only a tribute to Ray Charles, that's all I don't think they were trying to mess it up. All they're doing is paying homage to a great artist. That's what this special was about, it was a tribute to Ray Charles.

[1empathy]

@honeegrrl I think it is a terrible rendition but i'm, sorry if my opinion offends anyone.

[ckirby10]

When good artists go bad.....

[peaslee12918]

damn they tore it up

[Vikneshad0w]

This gave me goosebumps..

[nomehablesputo]

@Vikneshad0w cos it was so shit? They fucked it up dude, yeah it sounded good at parts... but shit...

[renaldogsp]

Alicia, Jamie, and Quicny all in one place singing one of the greatest song ever created..man..that's just priceless

[MrRadicalJack]

Both of these guys are super talented but the totally butchered this one. Didn't have that Ray feel to it.

[tacowaffleninja]

jamie fox is a beast and alicia keys is da best. together there the beastin-best . now if only ray was here to witness dat awsomeness =1

[6paidaa]

....... 

[MrBry329]

if he was an idol of ray charles why didnt he sounds like him or try to resemble the song this is sad they messed up a time classic epic fail

[takendergib]

THis is the most embarrassingly bad ego stroking piece of vanity i've ever seen. hate it.

[pretty9reenpark4]

completly fucked it up.

[blahhh4ful]

1:20 RLLY!!

[iamserge]

... if only ray charles was still here to get up on the stage, slap both in the face what they did to the song after 1:20 and perform...

[leauptei000]

they are both great singers but i think jamie's voice was better suited cause he has a soft smooth voice. alicia is an awesome singer but her voice is way to powerful for this smooth song. her voice is better for raspy bluesy songs. but it wasnt the worst performance. so good job.

[jkahr81]

@waycephus learn what the word nigga mean before you use douche bag. Ugh smh some people its 2011 fuck face! Respectable blacks I hate when people say stupid shit!

[kittylemeu]

I wish Alicia was not in this. It should just be jaime doing his thing alone on the piano.

[AbGretsch]

that's not how it goes D=<

[slimshaby408]

damn jaime can really sing

[iIDavo]

very bad

[abbieah]

LOVE this version, but i also love the michael buble version of the song... I sang that for my A level music performance, and at a summer concert earlier this summer, hope i did it justice! Check it out, I've just uploaded it on my page! love you michael buble!! :-D x

[Gernadesmasher69]

Ray Charles was singing with them from Heaven!!! God bless America!!

[waycephus623]

Just sing the sond right spearchuckers

[bluwaterzzz]

@waycephus623

You're what happens when your mother's cousin is also your Dad. Slobbering Inbred TRASH. (:

[waycephus623]

@bluwaterzzz This is what happpens when stupid NIGGAZ fuck up classic songs have no problem with respectable blacks

[jasonemilio]

There was not a hint of blues in that performance anywhere. This is what modern pop has done to music. They' are both very talented but this song and performance was not very good musically (as it could've been)

[mechista805]

i love the part after 1:20 its my favorite!!!! it gave ,me the chills yeh yey!!!

[endale]

that little hip hop vibe at 1:20 kinda ruined it but alicia keys still gave me chills

[TheMadhatter559]

i still prefer ray charles.

[Mr385north]

this is a classic , and a great tribute to a great man...excellant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[mcasteel]

1:20 ? O.o

[Giorgigogaladze]

Jamie is Ray's son from his other beloved woman, no wonder he's so talented

[Morterica]

que hermosa es Ms. Keys

[DreStarr20]

Greatest team-up EVer!!!

[dolicious1]

they should have NEVER done this! I got scared when Jamie Foxx stood up and A.Keys made it worse with her "uh uh" ... they both are great singers but they completly DESTROYED this mythic song!

[hoppy2903]

A classic song ruined!!

[xxAnnaaxx21]

looks like they were having a battle who can sing better and lost the whole emotion of the song. fkin wreck.

[kezzy94]

both very talented singers I just wasnt feelin it :/

I mean obviously no one does it like ray charles but still this wasnt what it couldve been...

[CrocodileRocker]

Oh, get a grip. Ray would have loved it.

[Nielsx1]

jamie foxx and alicia keys don't really harmonize that well but the performance was actually pretty good

[CameronK2010]

Alicia should've done it alone, she was tearin' it up! Jamie seems arrogant. Can't get past it. Great singer, poor attitude.

[ATINNERE]

way to ruin a great song...



[kelvinpyaeko]

WTF happend after 1:20?

[kiansamiei]

@kelvinpyaeko nothing, they fucked up the song...

[argenispieternella]

@kelvinpyaeko what ever happened, I DON\T LIKE IT!!!! like what their trying, but I DON'T LIKE IT!!!!

[Evoker]

@kelvinpyaeko LOL

[lonestar1383]

@kelvinpyaeko thats what im wondering

[delmar904]

lindooo...good performancee

[vinc39h]

the best hommage

[SuperNingerGinger]

wow alicia keys blows, foxx wasn't bad, but she just didn't sound right

[dutchfrenchman]

how to rape a beautifull song: take a bad actor and an rnb singer, put them together, give them a beautifull song and put an rnb-beat in the middle. And there you go , you just raped a beautifull song!!!

[QuanticoSniper]

163 dislikes? yeah, whatever.

[eniac78]

Can I dislike this video at a certain part? Like everything after 1:19

[collinsrv]

@eniac78

yes you can

[realblackxxxx]

fuck alicia keys! fake azz mixed whore! 

[asgernissen]

goosebombs!



[Albert95737]

Super

[apiszor]

killed it! :(

[terrykumar]

man, y'all gotta watch Ray (2004) - if you ain't watchin that movie, you wont understand nothing bout this song.. Ray Charles indeed is legend, and his legacy, his life was even more precious than his music.

[thesidekicksmusic]

thumbs up for the drummer

[chchchcherrybomb37]

If only Ray Charles was still here to get up on that stage and perform..

[OMERTA011]

@chchchcherrybomb37 if ray was there, he would fuck them up for doing this

[pathosj]

@OMERTA011 you know that they were all good friends right?

[masterofdisaster491]

they had to botch the damn song........ dumbasses shouldve sang the original song not some stupid modern remix!! (im not saying they have bad voices just saying they shouldnt have changed the song)

[mechista805]

its not being racist its called stereotyping!!!

[mechista805]

if u dnt have something nice to say dont say anything at all in this case type

people who most likely to hate this video are most likely to b white

[crunchyjoel]

@mechista805 and white ppl don't listen to good music? people that comment like you "are mostly b racist."

[mechista805]

if u have nothing nice to say dont say anything at all

i believe all the people who are saying bad things about this video are r being lame!!

most likely white people!!! fyi im mexican!!!

[chchchcherrybomb37]

@mechista805 im white and I like this video.

-_- I wouldnt say it was someone black saying it if they said something bad about say..a sonic youth or arctic monkeys video! I wouldn't even think it..

[xx2221000]

:)

[dependents1]

varias quebradas,,,,,,,

[adderall83]

For god sakes, can Alicia keys stop inhaling so loudly into the mike. I cant for the life of me figure out how this women made it, when I can walk into any church choir in Chicago and find 3 people who can sing better than.

[blackmollystube]

Clint Eastwood dislike this video.....

[sschafi1]

I understand what they were trying to do with the song, but it doesn't need this kind of treatment. It was great the way it was, and Jamie did a FANTASTIC job with the soundtrack for Ray.  I don't understand why they had to change it that much.

[jav5594]

ray charles didnt write this song...

[kookamunga878]

156 people are deaf

[MissRimarikemari]

THEY ROCKS!!

[andremartin1226]

WAIT! I WANTED TO SEE THE STARS OF THE LONGET YARD! D:

[bakerskater23]

song*

[bakerskater23]

good singers great talent, but destroyed this so

[TheLefouette]

People that were so negative on this song were so clueless. It reminds of people that eat burgers and fried food all day long who all of sudden become food experts. Listen to the talent and know how in this song. The first note that J Fox does, just the first note and see you could hold a note like that as long and beautifly as he does iut as long as he does it.

[TheCB555]

OMG! That is so amazing...I love his version so much , the feeling in their voices coming through so strongly is amazing...

I LOVE RAY CHARLES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[marlee0411]

Screaming, straining, and making faces does not equal talent or soul. Btw I don't see replies because my email's set on exclusive and I don't revisit sites. And let's be clear, a differing opinion does not make someone a "hater".

[esiosan]

They ruined it

[wesj1231]

Amazing performance!!

[madmiles]

She looks like she is trying not to shit herself. ps. this version sucks.

[272PAC]

awesome

[yescandles]

Personally I think this was just fine for what it was. It wasn't, however a goosepimpler for me. There are some songs that are perfect the way they were written. No messing around with the arrangement and for Gods sake, no riffs and no runs unless they are written. I do get so tired of some of them dragging a note from here to Georgia and back.

If I were a betting man, I would say they MAY have rehearsed this song once...if that.

If you want to be brilliant, rehearse or play by yourself.

[sable203]

beautiful beautiful tribute...had no idea jamie was SO musically talented before the RAY movie

[samjc14]

why people hating on this for? this gave me shivers, its beautiful

[JoLabs101]

love it

[hdsoulman]

Alicia looks drop dead gorgeous!
