  • Something tells me this wasn't a technical 'fault' and more preplanned. Two reasons tell me this, the microphone wasn't working at the start. Probably a fault so they get another microphone, we hear her starting to sing into it so the microphone seems to be working but then it's quickly turned down. This happens again after the song ends and she apologizes to the audience, but once she starts singing; the microphone is turned down again. I guess somebody in control didn't like her voice eh?

  • @ALEXSLINGSBY its quite obvious if you watch it closely that they actually fix the mic in Pattis hand as she hands it off for the new one which isn't working, you can then hear someone testing the mic that has been taken off the stage which is then returned to her at the start of somewhere over the rainbow, you can see at the end of the forever young video also where the base of the wireless mic is detatched, this was the first event of its kind it was bound to have glitches.

  • I left stir it up cause I like the facial expressions from Patti!!

  • all those hatters can kiss ms pattie ass and mind to because diva pattie is and all ways will be the baddiest diva of them all

  • MS. PATTI LABELLE IS INFINITE......HER STAGE PRESENCE IS PHENONIMAL...NO ONE CAN TOUCH HER....SHE'S IMPECABLE IN HER OWN RIGHT....IM RUNNING OUT OF WORDS SHE IS JUST MS. PATTI LABELLE!!

  • She is a pro's pro...kept it movin' with a smile on her face the whole time. At the end of the day, this exposure, on a global scale helped her career tremendously.

  • To those who think that the fuck up was intentional, stop hating....FYI, there were A LOT of bands/singers that had to endure the technical issues.

  • @Smoniquet40 actually patti labelle did open up with new attitude!

  • I AGREE THIS WAS A PLANNED THING! NOT ONLY ONE MIC BUT 2 HAS ISSUES!!! THEY REALLY HATED ON HER. I think she knew this going in, also this is the time when they said Ms Pattie was too "soulful", which is why she didn't even attempt New Attitude!

  • 2:35 WOW A G#5 IN FUCKING CHEST! PATTI IS A BAD BITCH!! NEVER HEARD ANYONE TO HIT THAT NOTE LIKE HER!! Not even aretha could do that in chest back then! Well patti is a pure soprano!

  • I purchased the 4 disc Live Aid DVD. The DVD includes Patti's performances of Imagine and Forever Young only. So glad this is posted here on YouTube ;-)
