The reason they sound different is because, in the show, they have pre-recorded everything and just lace the song they have already sung (with it edited and everything) over their moving lips in the show. This is pure and rough Lea and Cory singing. I think this sounds a hell of a lot better than their show voices.
For my is very noticeable that the microphones were not so well and both read and Cory put him the best of if, also think that they are people and they can be tired and therefore neither presentation shine both but were professional and gave everything that is the notable because either no raise on the stage to singdancing and doing things as they should
I don't know if it's the audio or what, but they really should have given Cory and Lea's mics more sound...They're really faint.
And they sound AWESOME, by the way. I didn't think they'd sound so great in real life.
Keep in mind that this is live, at the White House (wouldn't you freak out?) and yes, songs such as this, when they're recorded, WILL have some tinkering done to the singers' voices before they present it to the world. It's how it is.
@TheGingerandSnow I disagree with you. In real life they still sounding great, but the problem in this performance is in the Lea and Cory's microphones because sometimes they failed. They are amazing!!
People need to get over them not sounding as good here. That's the difference between hearing a song live and hearing it as it was recorded in the studio. It's to be expected that it won't sound as good live.
Cory and Lea don't sound as good here. The high notes don't seem as well done and the mics are a bit weird. but they're still very good.
um, what is that sort of frog sound?
I have to say, now that she's in more normal clothes, Rachel looks pretty. I think the reason i don't see that she's particularly pretty normally is because Rachel's always dressed funny.
@xoxojolly ...you're kidding right? Bill Clinton invited Aretha Franklin to perform at the White House back in 1998, he also hosted a celebration of the Newport Jazz Festival. Look it up on the Internet. There's been PLENTY! :-)
@SypranoGurl12345 of course they're not going to sound as good; anything musically inclined these days are going to be autotuned to sound like a 10 when they're really an 8 or 9.
@rockingirl1024 Really. Finn was a non singer but they liked him for the part and after working with him for a bit they got him so he could come close to being on Key and let auto tune take over.
@TristanandIsolt I find that so ironic since Finn is suppose to be the best male vocalist of the group. lol By the way, the actor's name is Cory. Finn is the character. Finn can sing. Cory cannot. Don't confuse actor with character.
Wauw! I just found that most of them are like 5 to 10 years older then the character they're playing. Matt Morrison is only 4 years older then Mark and Cory ...
@scoutcaulfield my guess is that they aren't lip synching but that the person running the mics wasn't doing their job right. When people have to change mic volumes multiple times during a song it can cause issues like what went on in the video, they leave everyone elses mics alone causing the the background to become louder than the soloists when they forget to turn up those particular mics.
@ricecrispies101 I think I know who you're talking about. I don't know his real name, but his character's name is Matt. He literally had two lines when he was on the show.
His character was Matt. He was a football player who decided to join the glee club together with Puck and Mike Chang. But he really didn't have much of a role: he just sat there in the background and danced a little, but they needed him to have 12 members. In the second season Matt transferred (don't know why they got rid of him, maybe he got tired of never having lines) so they were short of members again and then the kids had to go and search for new members (Sunshine, Sam)
*Lea sounds better than Cory (is that his name?) live, they all sound amazing, though. I hate how Heather Morris, Naya and the other characters weren't there at the beggining.

@MissKatherinePaige it's the camera's recording of the sound system because it is an outdoor event that are no walls to reverberate the acoustics...HA.
@TheFanOfChocolate has nothing to do with the mics. More lack of the operator knowing who had the solo when. 1) Get your facts straight first, and 2) let's see you do better. Go on. Right now. You spoke up, so prove yourself.
Oh, what's that? You can't? thought so. PS-I heard you aren't perfect either.
