[@etaylor8028]

@@LeoHikari Right but this was a week after ending a 4 month relationship, plus she performed this song countless of times so no creativity needed there. Just muscle memory for how to sing it.

[@leys9290]

@@etaylor8028 any little things can affect singing even if you've sang. Are you a performer? Have you tried singing after emotional instability? In front of thousands of people? With the pressure of sounding good on you? It's a lot to handle just singing on your own with that much power. Imagine in front of that many people judging and staring at you

[@elliotspangler3152]

[@banheesos]

@@arianacareymariahgrande3582 I am not a fan of other albums aside from yours truly but I totally agree. She has great pronounciation as a child and her Broadway performances are perfect, its just stylistic choice for her to slur her words

[@feridedogan7653]

You clearly hear. that she has 2 different voice techniques. I dont understand why she does not use her musical singing style more often. I dont like sometimes her singing but here shes really good .

[@Trientaarianag]

Because her "pop/r&b music" technique makes her a lot more money and it's what has made her so famous. Maybe it's not great technique, but it has a unique sound that sets her apart from other artists. I feel like if she used this "Broadway" technique with her current music it wouldn't be very appealing to the masses. Unfortunately that's just how the music industry works. Maybe she'll change it up someday.

[@feridedogan7653]

@@Trientaarianag ur right. But i dont talked bad about her rnb music and style. I like that too. My issue is just when she sings like she eat some hot potatoes u cant understand her.

[@johningram2153]

As a particular fan of national anthems, I was super impressed by the inclusion of the Swiss anthem. I recognized it immediately. Well played. My view of Ariana was also changed by this performance. I've heard a lot of people criticize her, for singing musical theater in a slightly different way than we expect. Given how much success she has had with here "pop schtick," it's impressive to me that she can still reign most of that in, be very respectful of the material (she IS a theater geek, clearly), and bring something slightly different to music theater stuff that she does.

Idk, I think I will keep asking vocalist until I think I've gotten a good amount of answers.
