Actually, voices get BETTER with age. We may lose a little at the top end, but we gain in power and emotion. Unless you're a coloratura, age is not a problem for a singer.
The incomparable Annie Lennox has made what, to us, is a Christmas Classic into something that can almost transport you in time - watching this made me think "I wonder if the people, back in the day this was written and what-not, got swept up by the power in this song?"
Check out the fan video from this event. It sounds very different. IMO that settles it, if you were there, you heard a live version, the home audience got a lip sync.
Annie hates to lip sync (mime) but sometimes the TV companies won't allow artists to perform live so they don't get the choice.
I enjoyed the performance but I would prefer to have seen Annie sing this live - particularly as this is new material for her so I wanted to see how great she can perform it.
annie mariah and a few others were taped preiously when it was freaking cold--maybe there were sound problems?--mariah lipsync'd as well--not sure about anyhone else taped that day. but STILL--annie and her band really gave a shot of energy into this show-LOVED it.....
Why do you think she's not singing live? Love her Christmas CD

I hate Twisty Puzzle Freaks :-) but I gotta say this song is definitely religious badass. From my favourite Christmas album of all time.
