Jessica Simpson Attempting The 'I Wanna Love You Forever' Climax Live

These are all the live performances I found

[@billiejeanwilliams3217]

Lets be cleara, this song is not easy to sing, its why you NEVER hear anyone even attempting it. She deserved an award for this song tbh.

[@cheers2023]

She's one of those singers where the power of their voice literally takes over their whole body.

[@KH-sn2sj]

Truly a tough vocal passage. Her naturally high tessitura & vocal stamina is her saving grace.

[@marcojacinto824]

Honestly most of today's pop singers whould just lip-synch this and not even try performing this live. She took her chances and always made it sound amazing. Underrated artist no doubt.

[@EDT3270]

Not the best technique but this climax is freakin HARD! Credit where it’s due.

[@katehu7194]

"Attempting" as in "absolutely nailing"?! She hit it every time live.

[@chickin1235]

Attempting?? How about nailing :)

[@tiffanystidham5329]

She absolutely deserved that standing ovation she got at 13:50! She was so sick.. but, she was so admirable how she pushed through it anyways. 💜

[@rydbthatsme]

Her voice is literally one of a kind. The fact she can do all those high notes, riffs, and held notes over and over is nuts. She never needed surgery either so I dunno how she pulled it off. It's a gift from her God I guess.

Wow she was really incredible. Powerful voice

[@vistaprime]

If only we could all have 10,000 lifetimes with the ones we love.

[@aw62875]

This song would tear up any one's vocals! And rhey made her sing it live non stop! This is why I don't fault singers who dodge their notes or play a heavy backing track for the hard stuff. Recording is one thing but to sing it live on tour is literally begging for permanent vocal damage

[@katehu7194]

It's so rough to be in the industry! Personally, I would not mind paying top dollar if concerts became even rarer: like artists only perform like 20-30 times a year as opposed to 50-100. Singing is supposed to be a stress relief not a strain and stressor. So sad. But that's supply and demand and immorality/inhumanity of society for ya! I just hope Jessica had some moments of genuine enjoyment and fun on her tours, because it is serious hard work.

[@cheers2023]

I've tried singing along with her and can hit that note, but then my throat is immediately out of commission. Can't sing it anymore.

[@usedtobe1197]

​@@cheers2023 são notas de passagem vocal para mulheres!! É muito difícil frasear nessa região

[@marinadela1361]

This song is crazy difficult and this part especially. Ms. Simpson was truly giving her all.

[@despairingleonardo]

I have to admit she has immense stamina even though she strained like hell. Other people would just have to lower the pitch(eg xtina). She could still kinda stay on pitch and sing an entire concert without skipping high notes.

[@datboibutters]

despairingleonardo and that’s why xtina still belts today

[@iKETOURAGE]

She did lower the key.But even then it was STILL vocally demanding.

[@iKETOURAGE]

@@datboibutters Christina Belt's are pretty horrendous. I can't name any of her vocally challenging songs that she sung exactly like she did in the studio. Tho' she did REALLY well during the Back 2 Basics era.

[@ntent1]

she lowered the key by half a step

[@davidemascia3432]

@@datboibutters PLS she doesn’t even have a vocal training-

[@lightning0506]

Good old days, such a waste honestly, she had so much potential and great soprano voice. I don't get why did she choose to change her technique, espeically considering she actually had the better technique earlier during Broadway, much like Britney actually, they both used to have the potential but after entering to pop-music they were forced to using shitty technique, no surprise she retired from singing career and she doesn't perform that song live anymore. Although it's a bit too sweet for my taste but still a powerful ballad

[@MM-mx2zt]

Tommy and Columbia did her wrong, no support, all demand to exploit her to be the next britney/christina

[@joiestefan7528]

She was never properly trained it seems she could definitely sing for sure but they rushed her and she wasn't ready and not the correct stream of music. I remember this song first came to radio (yes I'm that old lol 32)I loved it. Today the music sucks and they all sound the same and all autotuned and not live.

[@mariahsbelovedlamb6443]

This song saved my life ❤️

[@Dreececliff]

She had amazing techinique before she was famous she done Broadway the label wanted her to do the baby voice and that's how her technique slipped and she never seemed to quite regain it And this video is also proof cause to be able to sing the song like this so many times without blowing out her vocals shows technique there's barely any nasality in any of the clips she has a full open sound barely any tension in her throat sounding full sounding resonant she was. A badass so underrated and moulded and ruined by her label

[@DannyPop2013]

Wow the 6 minute 30 sec was epic! The crowd really hyped her up and her confidence soared! These performances were prolly amazing in person

[@bobbya9722]

This was her go for broke song. She never could stand out against Britney and XTina but she gave it her all with this song

Jessica Simpson is one of the most talented singers who was sadly, underrated in her day, being compared to Christina and Britney. Hence why she backed down her music career. Her talent is becoming more appreciated recently in many reaction videos. She hits it out of the park 99.999! Come back Jessica!

[@diemardur1]

She really beautiful

mine too. that's where I saw the first time, and i was like who is this another white girl who can't sing. by the time she got to the climax it was like when I heard Mariah for the first time. Wow.

[@yadiwib5612]

Audio version versus live/concert version is different at all....you should asking the crowds...what the vibe of live versions were....that were absolutly bloody massive, strong and beautiful indeed in that concert/live performances...make the crowd silence...like in grand slam/US Open...trying not disturb for that stage moments... Moreover this footages doesn't represent the real situation but the audio..:)

[@t.l.5597]

Does anyone know the last time she sang this song live in public?

Mottola and Sony killed her chances of being a good vocalist, they played with her technique too much.

No, i'm gonna love you forever

[@Kaijpiroska]

I'm sorry but I love this song and also live performances. Yes, with screaming and straining, as you call it, in earlier versions with young Jassica. This is what gives this rather sweat and boring ballade the depth it got with Jessica singing it, she is singing this pop song as it is a power rock ballade. She is not crying for a guy, she is screaming with anger and desperation, it makes also all sense with the lyrics. And yes, I guess performances like that, this is what ruined her voice at the end, but she was working and giving it all. Still love this song, now 20 years later.

[@usedtobe1197]

Eu acho que ela é uma excelente cantora, assim como Christina Aguilera sua técnica vocal nao era a mais saudável do mundo, mas o que ganhou a todos pelo mundo foi sua originalidade de misturar o melhor de "Britney" e "Xtina" com uma pitada de "Jessica"!! Me lembra muito o que Mariah, Celine e Whitney cantariam

[@tiffanystidham5329]

*CliffReacts* - She was really sick during that particular performance; she had a high fever, chills, aches, sore throat, etc. She absolutely deserved that standing ovation she got at 13:50.

[@jrzjnz7573]

Those sustained notes were solid through the years. Yes, she's oversinging. They all did in those days. Everyone of them. She did great even doing that live so many times without tuning it to her needs. With a good coach and enough rest she would have evolved. These late-90s girls had to follow up 2 solid decades of divas from singing school with opera training and a gospel background. I'd say in Jessica's era that kind of training and background stopped even though Jessica did at least have a background singing at church.

@@LL00123 She released alb ums up until 2006, I think. The issue is that she was always 3rd place and since the media used to cover her for being either stupid or too fat it took a turn in her life where she didn't want to do it anymore. She made a country album, went on to perform on the Grand Ole Opry and forgot the lyrics. So it was one thing after the other.
