[@PercussionEnsembles]

@@dari1741 Just because something isn't the original doesn't mean it was live. I used to do that all the time when I was performing. I would use one recording for whatever was being published and then another recording to present as "live" if I couldn't hit my notes for whatever reason. The "live" recording wasn't perfect and it was different enough to not sound like the original. Iirc Ariana was caught doing this before for segments with high runs, but I'm not 100% confident in that assertion. I guess the whole thing comes down to what is defined as "live". For me live is unedited, but by the phrase's definition singing live can have autotune, and so I would concede that this could well be live because of how advanced live audio production is. It wasn't unedited live though.

[@sarsattacks]

This might be a "Christmas song," but this is extremely highly technical singing. The two singers are not competing over each others, but they are merely taking turns, and bolstering up their partners when it is not their turn. While I do already find Ariana Grande a very good singer, I think this is one of her best performances. I've always been a fan of Kelly Clarkson since season one of American Idol, but this also is one of her best performances.

It’s kinda discrediting then to say “natural talent” because they’ve put a lot of work into training their voices. The things they can do so effortlessly isn’t because they were born able to, they spent years doing exercises and building up their voices.

[@jcfan1979]

@@othebomb1980 Honing a skill doesn't take away from what they have naturally. Their voices sound how they sound. The fact that they have trained to use and (hopefully) preserve their voices doesn't diminish anything. You can train most anyone to sing but not everyone has a voice that sounds good doing it.
