jhulud Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Recorded the VMA's just to watch T-Swizzle perform. Will watch tonight and report back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I understand she was moving a lot but those flat notes were killing me But she sounds that way even when shes standing at a mic strumming a guitar. Sorry dudes, I just don't think she's a decent live performer. From that article: "She probably should have lip-synced more." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nardes Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 does she have the best live vocals? no. was it a fun performance? yes. I thought not bad overall... it's a very different song to sing (theres not real musical line to sing along with) I would love to see them do this vocal isolating thing with all the other performers... ESPECIALLY Usher... wtf was that last night????! Other than his horrific attempt of a performance I thought they were all great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Von Swift Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Recorded the VMA's just to watch T-Swizzle perform. Will watch tonight and report back. She's in the first 10 or so minutes, the second performer... so you won't have to sit through too much other stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beginning was weird and the song/s he did bored me lol. I only watched for my dudes in 5sos haha. They are to me what Taylor is to you guys.

Wasn't Mean specifically about critics saying that all the time? Instead of constantly writing songs about it (people say SIO is also about that), maybe she should get a new vocal coach or something?

jhulud Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Man. The Anti-Swift Hater Machine has been on overdrive since the song came out and her performance on the VMA's. Why is it that some people devote so much energy and time to criticizing & ragging on an artist/musician/band as if their lives depended on it?

tape Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 agreed. my usual response to a band/artist I don't like is "hey, I don't like this band/artist," sometimes followed up with "for the following reasons: [reasons]," and then I carry on with something else.

If we are really being critical of the VMAs we all need to get lives. That was quite possibly one of the most horrendous award shows in history. The VMAs are all about the show/performance, not the actual talent behind it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could never be Anti-Swift, unless she liked killed somebody or something. She's too damn adorable to hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family Friendly Rap God Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I'm not going to lie, I was a little anti Swift at first because she was EVERYWHERE. Now she doesn't bother me as much. Probably because I don't listen to the radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 I don't even recall how I got into Swift's music. I don't listen to any radio. I sure as shit don't watch MTV or VH1 or any channels that may still play music videos. Just one day I checked her out a while after her self-titled had come out...maybe a few months before Fearless dropped. Damn, now I'm wracking my brain to figure out how and when and why. Damnit.
