[@Lau3464l]

If he heard those high notes from someone male-presenting, he’d think it was an impressive range. Because they’re so femme, he hears it like a girl doing a falsetto-scream, which at that pitch would seem really off. Those exact tones are what built Adam Lambert’s career

[@johncastillo9339]

This proves that these shows are scripted/fake because even people who are tone deaf can hear that they are talented. Even if you take away the fact that they’re drag queens, talented voices are still talented voices. Those harmonies were tight!

[@darellgrant8753]

Wow.. If they kicked Jan out they would be fine. Jan cannot sing..at all

[@janeeyre1990]

I wish people would remember that music is very subjective. And I include Simon Cowell in that as a person. I'm hard of hearing and have chronic pain in my left ear so that certain high frequencies are physically uncomfortable to me. There are some sounds and songs other people like that are painful for me to listen to. So I can't, or won't, fault anyone else for not liking their performance. I don't know how the sonic waves feel going into their ears or how their brains interpret the sounds. That's why it's so important for a supposed "mentor" like Cowell to explain why he does or doesn't like a particular vocal performance. Does it hurt his ears, is it not his personal style, does he hear specific technical things that could be improved...? But no, his job is to be snarky in order to get a reaction from people, because more views and comments and engagement means more ad revenue. And I'm feeding the beast by adding my comment to the pile.

[@Blazedasonic]

I have perfect pitch. Their harmonies WERE tight and Simon was just a jerk! I will say the high notes at first felt a little not as LOUD as it could be! Screaming my butt! They were so cool and frickin’ ROCKING THE STAGE.

[@VioletHorrorshow]

Rosé's fancy little walk onto the stage is just so iconically her

[@D3z1n3r]

I do think that there was some over-singing which increases the pointedness of the vocal tone. There was a little too much support from the throat and a bit of overall tightness, BUT it was in tune and the harmonies were good. The blatant negation and dismissiveness is just petty and homophobic. Why not give them the constructive criticism? If they bring the volume down a little and make the sound slightly rounder, it would sound more controlled and remove the edge to their higher registers. Lightening their sound a bit, their harmonies and resonance would sound fuller. It's like using a sledgehammer to crack a walnut.

[@olyviagregg2778]

Yes!!!! This is the kind of critique that they needed.

[@rojeyjo]

yess thank you!!! youre actually being constructively critical!!! so many people in the comments are just saying theyre bad because they weren’t exactly perfect but like. so many famous singers that they love certainly aren’t perfect either and it’s frustrating for them to just say “oh because they’re men, they’re just not good at singing those note” which is wrong because like you said, they were on tune, they tone just wasn’t perfect. If this was a group of straight men or women singing this, Simon wouldn’t have picked them out for that and the fact that he did this because they’re drag queens is blatantly homophobic and petty. There are comments saying that Jan’s vocalisation was piercing but the vocals on the original track are as well, the only difference is that one is tightened up in a studio and one is live and sung by a drag queen.

[@janeeyre1990]

Reality competitions by and large just want attention and money. In this case, Simon could have provided constructive criticism, like you did. The moment gets put on KZbin and the video gets an average number of comments. But the way it happened, this video blows up with engagement. People arguing in the comments about whether they can sing or not, whether Simon Cowell is homophobic or not... Like outrage marketing. Do something shitty to intentionally provoke a negative response. All attention is good attention when more views = ad revenue.

[@aahwUNL11]

Honestly I thought it was a pretty sickening performance, but the nerves/pressure of the situation made their energy a little out of control. It happens. They're still fierce performers and the fact that they can even sing live like this is impressive, periodt. The person running through the comment section talking about how bad they sound is clearly a Simon Cowell alt account.

[@alecjasonn]

I really don't agree. When a man is singing a note that high that's usually how it's going to sound. Especially when their natural voice isn't that high. Jan has a wide vocal range but he isn't an actual woman so it's not going to sound like an actual woman. Technique can only change that so much.

HES NOT EVEN AMERICAN LMAO! I highly doubt that this comment is remotely accurate. You are just upset that he buzzed drag queens, when he was vibing the entire time until Jan strained to reach the not that was never hit! Honestly, I had the same reaction... and the way they were dressed has nothing to do with the reality of that part of the performance. People are listening to music too loud with their headphones and are suffering from hearing loss, if they think that note sounded good lol.
