everyone claiming she's trying too hard needs to remember this was an homage to James Brown: she's emulating his style. that scream is a notable feature in his live performances. she nailed this. Jamie Foxx says as much at the end!
@jaszcyie25 If you knew anything you'd know that James Brown screams and then the cape is placed on him when he sings this. Keep your mouth shut fool!
@orero1717 ummm you can kiss my ass oreo! she just sounded bad on this particular high note nobody said she a bad singer so you can shove it asshole.....you jumpin to conclusions and james brown wales not forces a high note dat cant be reached so like i said da bitch screamed!
@jaszcyie25 you know wat you probluy look like one too bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i been done wit you asss!!!! this is you tube not the muthafuckin debate team!!!!!!!
Say what you wanna say...but Christina did what she does best...love it or hate it you still wanna talk about it! And the fact that so many years later people are still talking about it says enough in itself! Great Job...James Brown would have been honored! :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this performance would have been great if she didnt "ATTEMPT" to do a freakin whitsle note, the only sisngers who should be allowed to it is the queen and princess Minnie and Mariah, anybody elese is a damn fool.
gcsilva u said the morning after every1 was trashing this performance, well if i recall all the top selling magarzines were raving about this performance and every1 said she stole that night.
she looks elegant,beuatiful,good for singing this song,it was perfect i can say.i know there is not perfection but in this song she did,withney is good,mariah,beyonce,celine they are good at singing they are real singers like christina ,britney will never sing like christina she is ok britney would never do it
For me, no other performer touches this song with the same power and range as Christina. It is a legendary song and many can and have tried to match it's original vocal power i lyric by delivery, but in truth they simply don't get there...and Christina, all 5"2" of her hits it perfectly. If not already considered a living legend, she should be!
im very sure that withney or mariah can reach the notes christina reached here, but i think that they will not make this performance as good as she done it because, its also about the heart and how you transmit the feeling of this song to the public.
personally this performance made me cry, shes so good, and shes really got into the song, thats why i thinks this is THE BEST PERFORMANCE EVER!!!!!
it's actually the opposite. whitney and mariah can put their soul into a performance. this performance is soulless. just pure screaming. and her tone is SO UGLY. i can't get over the fact her tone is the worst of all the current divas.
well thats your opinion and i cant change it, if you think so good for you, at least christina doesnt lypsinc the national athem like whitney or mariah did, and if you are right about saying thats pure screaming i guess al critics doesnt know nothing about singin right?? because i tell you that this performance was acclaim by all critics :D
i don't wanna fight...... everyone lipsyncs the national antem at the superbowl. they are required to. i remember some people trashing this performances in the morning after the grammys that year
you are right about whitney. she has a more beautiful tone than christina. but no one, no whitney , not mariah... can't sing like christina does. she has better pipes. mariah... is a lower level.
Her voice fits the song perfect, but be careful about what you say when u claim that a whitney or mariah or aretha can't pull that off...trust me they can
you can not sing a classic from anyone esp. james brown the king with out siiiinnngging with all your heart she did this song justice... no mater what people would judge.. but give me a break this was great... hate when people complain like they could get on stage and sing half a note... just enjoy stop all that negitive crap
uhh yeah this is a bunch of white people who dont know soul music complaining about the scream... one of the best from a woman i have ever seen ... nice..
Shes the only one that can come out and sing that song,,,she has the soul for it.And shes Christina not Whitney or anyone else,,,she sings songs and owns them,,she makes them her own.There will always be the nit pickers,,never satisfied.Shes awesome and thats the bottem line.
osea q voz tan impresionante q maravilloso interpreta esta gran cantante es la artista mas versatil q e oido es impresinante verla me encanta es unika con una voz q cautiva,, tiene unos agudos impresionantes capaz de ejecutar sonidos silvato y falsetes osea la mejor......
You woe sayers are simply jealous! You must not get music or you would have felt the chills. I listen to this on occasion for inspiration - try it some time!
she is screeming what was the point of that in time 1.59 to 2.06,that was screeming I love xtina she is the best vocalist of our generation but listen to mariah carey emotions or whitney houstom miracle and copare u will see the different ntw singing and screeming
NO Honey... that is called Talent...... She will be around for manny more than 30 40 even 60 and still singing.. Love xtina.. and bad mouths like u are no good... lol love u xtina..
Zmythe,please go and fuck your mother!!maybe your mum sing even worst than her!Xtina is great.Unlike your mum moaning like cheap whore while being fuck by a dog!!
Who ever said that she did a bad job on this song must be on crack!!!! She did a damm great job.The godfather would have loved it. Good job Christina.
It was more of a Damn well i guess i can go up but i don't want to anymore i can't follow that, i wounder if she will stand next to me untill the monment passes - kinda look.
She is Wikd. Her voice is cool. Her only error was the top note. You cant scream a head note it's so far up in the head register, and because she has a great belter 'chest' voice, to transfer into that register so quickly caused the out of pitch. It happens...
She was well in the spirit though. And geeze, probably the only bad note shes hit like EVER.
erm for them people that keep sayin she screwed up on the whistle note it wasnt even a whistle note she said in the show that it was a scream which if you dont know James brown did in his songs so if you say shes shit because of it u dont have a clue what your talking about.
I agree...Christina doesn't always have the best preformances, but with the exception of that one...StRaNgE note... it was a great preformance. I am in college studying musc, and I specialize in voice..let me tell you... she did a great job! I wanna recording!
i wish she'd record this so we could buy it...she made this song her own but at the same time paid tribute to the great man who originally sang it. with the exception of that one weird note, which i don't think she intentionally did, this was a wonderful performance
that was the best performance that night...n_n she may not have sung 2 songs Like JT and MJB but this performance ate their performances whoLe! and, Beyonce's was buLLshit fLat! n_n
you davidtoodumb or stupid or something like that coz you cant say that okeii, let me tell you something you asshole she is a great singer, and she did a greta tribute I was speechless and I am a singer so I can tell you that she was screaming but she was un tune, and she did it so great.
shutup david2cool.. first off.. she was doing a tribute.. and the man is dead.. is he supposed to perform it in his casket or something.. so stop hating.. she even got a standing ovation..
Christina was definitely the best that night. This is girl is on fire. I just want to say that Jamie was hilarious. The camera was on him heck a long and he looked liked he wished for it not to be. lmao
Wow! This performance is worthy of sending chills down your spine. Its amazing. Christina is a legend in the making. Now I understand some people don't like her power house and adlibs all over the place etc. method of singing but I and I am sure all her other fans too, love it. I find it quite mesmorising. This woman is a true talent...and a wonderful person (just watch interviews on Ellen lol). What a voice. Ands shes shockingly modest about her voice lol Which I like.
her voice is amazing. She got some real soul. Straight from the heart. People need to stop hating just because she is not black. There is talent in all races and all cultures.
Not to bring up the other former Mousekeeter, but around the time of "Genie in a Bottle" versus "Sometimes," it's hard to believe there was ever a debate as to whether Britney or Christina would be more successful.
While Britney is out shaving her head and going off the deep end, Christina is KILLING it live here. Well done Christina!!
If she keeps ripping out her vocals like that we won't see much more. I applaud her though. The sacrifice has to be made for the perfect performance. Maybe she won't be able to sing in 10, 20, maybe 30 years, but she'll have all her great performances to make up for it.
everyone claiming she's trying too hard needs to remember this was an homage to James Brown: she's emulating his style. that scream is a notable feature in his live performances. she nailed this. Jamie Foxx says as much at the end!

Is Christina a good singer because she's REALLY loud
and screams with a wavering kind of rasp to it?
Or is the idea to have a conniption fit in a very precise, calculated and controlled way?
Or to do something that physically most people cannot do? Is that what "good" means?
I don't get it. Can anybody tell me what qualities
in her singing make it so nice for you? Help me out.

Christina was definitely the best that night. This is girl is on fire. I just want to say that Jamie was hilarious. The camera was on him heck a long and he looked liked he wished for it not to be. lmao

Wow! This performance is worthy of sending chills down your spine. Its amazing. Christina is a legend in the making. Now I understand some people don't like her power house and adlibs all over the place etc. method of singing but I and I am sure all her other fans too, love it. I find it quite mesmorising. This woman is a true talent...and a wonderful person (just watch interviews on Ellen lol). What a voice. Ands shes shockingly modest about her voice lol Which I like.

her voice is amazing. She got some real soul. Straight from the heart. People need to stop hating just because she is not black. There is talent in all races and all cultures.

Not to bring up the other former Mousekeeter, but around the time of "Genie in a Bottle" versus "Sometimes," it's hard to believe there was ever a debate as to whether Britney or Christina would be more successful.
While Britney is out shaving her head and going off the deep end, Christina is KILLING it live here. Well done Christina!!

Christina rocked it with this one! She is the most amazing vocalist of our time and we are not seeing the end of her yet!

If she keeps ripping out her vocals like that we won't see much more. I applaud her though. The sacrifice has to be made for the perfect performance. Maybe she won't be able to sing in 10, 20, maybe 30 years, but she'll have all her great performances to make up for it.
