Liza Minnelli - "New York, New York" - live German-TV 10/05/2009

[maybegoodable]

magical happen only at 2 53 : behaving like a drunk so sad to see such a performance

[JohnnyGNV]

It looks like the vocal was pre-recorded here - but she did it well whether it was actually sung on the spot or pre-recorded in a Studio. She recently did the song again for the

TV Land Awards and she was having some vocal difficulties. She's always an interesting performer to watch nevertheless.

[22kellyjean]

Some times shes right on and other times she struggles with the long notes , if she has lots of warm up she still sounds amazing, example liza at the palace..... she rocks i love her!!

[murbuzz]

this is certainly not live....what a load of pure shit! She is lip synching to a click track. It is not too obvious but you can deffo tell its not live. I love Liza.....and that is why i know this is not her live.

[Thorneycroft1937]

It is hard to believe that this was live - one year before that 2008 she wasn't able to sing it like that.

[baburton81]

I don't think she's singing this live.

[marionbuffy]

@baburton81 i it is live. why do you think it ist not live. she is one of the best singers that exist. she has so much talent and her show is simply the best

[opinion1234]

I don't know what planet she was singing live on, but it was not this one.....there are no variations at all when she moves the mic around.....sorry, but that was not live......

[22kellyjean]

None of these real old time performers lipsink, not cher (except for that weird part in belive) not tina turner AND NOT LIZA!!!! they are all or nothing. thats why they are still doing it because the love performing. and its an art form... its different every time out.

[rossgardiner]

@22kellyjean But this performance is lipsynced. But I mean, for her age and what shes been through I'm surprised she didn't lip-sync earlier in her career as you say she didn't :)

[weevesonline]

it is a recording - but a recent one as you can tell it is with her current voice and not that of yrs gone by. A clever idea really and probably so she can rest as she at the time was touring :)

[liam8910]

Her performance on Bruce Forsyth's birthday the year before was dreadful, so surely this isn't live unless she improved a lot!?

[xKimxMeganxMerylx]

She's a legend. Simple as it is. ;)

[Naotoshi100]

Amazing...Really entertaining..Wow

I think this is one of her best performances.

[alexanuchid]

This was a lipsync even the band Look how they played so fake!!!

[Brilchan]

@alexanuchid Don't you dare to dizz Liza she was a star when nobody used playback and she proved that her talent and voice are real so even if this one is a lipsync cut her some slack co's she's a true artist and look up cabaret the musical witch her and you will she why the world loves her so much

pace

[malinche1973]

you are correct.....

[Thorneycroft1937]

I think this video proves that german audiences are not always ungrateful.

[americangalbasseyfan]

CHARISMA. Way to go, Liza with a 'Z.'

[ROXYRIVERS1]

This song is Liza's song.

It was written for her for her starrring role in the film New York New York,  I hate the way everybody always thinks its Sinatra's song

[souljaLOVE]

what a treat thank you

[NFitalianGuy]

Damn is this a Black Widows club? Look at all the woman in that orchestra! HA HA. Liza is a great show woman!

[prckay]

I think Liza has vocal Nodoules which she would not wanto get removed considering what happend to julie andrews

[MissDellaReese]

That's just it! She did have them removed in 1998.

[prckay]

she should have left them

[fvj87]

I love it! Me encanta esta cancion, la energia nunca falta en ella...

[461195]

excelente lisa minnelli

[von8lou]

simply dreadfull......and sad too!

[magaliep34]

thats very wrong!!! her name is liza minelli and its spelled "laisa"

[niceguy400]

I saw Liza in Sydney Australia 3 weeks ago. She was awesome and exactly like this. I can assure u its her live............

[chrisrad79]

Sorry to break it to everyone, but this is lip synching, this is the exact track from her newest CD - Liza's at the Palace, the singing is exactly the same as on the CD, and trust me i am a musician and it is the same. Also the most obvious thing here is, none of the musicians have microphones near or on their instruments, just take a look.

[MrBrandini]

She is very talented.

[SummerBreeze2009]

Wow!

Her voice here was clear, strong, just fabulous!

She tore the roof off of the place!

[johnnyboyke]

This is Liza , so wake up guys ! Liza NEVER lip-sings or whatever !  She allways sings live ; even if it's difficult for her ! Liza is really top !

[JBFANN]

A personal word of JBFANN...

Dear visitors and viewers of this video,

I think that this appearance was a live performance of the artist and no lip-sync.

The problem of "time delay" between picture and sound may have been incurred during the conversion of video recording from TV to a file for YouTube.

During the appearance on TV, no asynchrony was evident.

Thank you for your attention - enjoy that song.

[shane03a]

From what i can i tell, i'd say she's not lip syncing, but it looks like the performance was voiced over, in post production

[ProdShowtime]

magnifique moment !

[ricoco1]

She's soooo good!

[jophus82]

Do we even have stars like this anymore? Chenowerth?

[AJROELANT]

I have seen liza many times she has never lip-synched in concert. Many Many people do. not liza!!!!!!!! So what if she is here who cares she is LIZA!!!!!!

[TONYFROMWESTSIDE]

I bloody hope she doesn't lip-sych in concert!!!! in Sydney. I paid damn good money for those tickets. if she li-synchs im gonna stand up and call out for my money back!!!

[nicktabus1000]

SHES NOT LIP SYNCING

[geranium1975]

it's a direct. There are enough instrumets to play live. Like the real orchestra do.

[AJROELANT]

So what see lip it she is wonderful

[grai]

so weird that they chose to have the band on show when they are clearly PRETENDING to play! The effect is bizzare

and as for Liza - well - she's always bizarre

[MissDellaReese]

I agree. It looks so strange. OO

By the way, the version playing is the one she recorded recently for the Liza's At The Palace soundtrack.

[silvanuchi]

que comentario tan estupido,si Liza es "bizarra" PARA QUE MIRAS SU VIDEO????

Liza es la mejor.Amamos a Liza.

[angieros]

I'm sorry that she lip-synched, she has been going so strong lately, that it's ok with me that she did that. She could just stand there and it would be amazing!

I've had the thrill of meeting her twice backstage out of the nine times I've seen her in concert, hope you get the chance to meet her too! She is incredible to see live!

We treasure each and every autograph she gave us plus so many pictures too, simply amazing treasures to have!

We sure LOVE LIZA!!

Have a great time!!!

Angie

[princessjoots]

Heehee, saving her voice for the stage she is! She's so cute at the end when they give the flowers and her face is like 'ohhh...come on'. Hee hee!

If you live in Germany, LUCKY YOU! YAY! She is cominggggggg! :D xx

[JoanJoannaStef]

YES, I am gonna see her live!!!

[princessjoots]

Have a wonderful time! It will be amazing Im sure of it! YAY! :D :D :D

[JoanJoannaStef]

YES, she did. Unfortunately....

[ryancmt]

I'm pretty sure that she lip-synched to the recent Palace recording here. Probably a good idea given her uneven vocals on many recent TV appearances.

[blykken]

For some reason her concert voice is so much better than any one time tv performances. Maybe she doesn't warm up or needs a few songs to do it?
