Lady’s and gentlemen, this is music and vocals how they should be without auto tune and computer enhancements! Raw talent in its purest form. Take notes this generation.

[@Kirasfox]

But autotune was used in 80s and 90s made some great music at that

[@pamfisher4528]

Amen

[@stevemattfis]

@@Kirasfox Autotune wasn't invented until 1996 and wasn't released until 1997 so the earliest it could have been in use was the following year since development of the technology had to be processed, and delivered , installed, correlated into other sound systems and taught how to use. So at best widespread use would have been in 2000.

She followed but led because she knew she was raised different compared to this new generation that don’t know what respect mean. That’s what you call showing respect to your elder but at the same time showing the new generation is here now. Even at the end she knew she won the battle but Sir Tom already went through a war to get to where he is now and he has nothing to prove. She is younger and although people say it was a battle it wasn’t. She was showing respect to someone that earned the right to be where he is and at his age vocally still able to compete but he showed it’s nothing wrong with passing the torch down and recognizing pure talent. What the young generation barely have now.
