DiscoHeaven23 35,007 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Watch this great performance by Missy Elliott and Pharrell on the finale of The Voice. The set design is impressive! Im a longtime fan of Missy and her dancing is so good here, especially for a woman in her 40's. -The song has already risen on iTunes from #68 to #31...so here's to hoping it goes higher. That was the first time she's performed it, so if she keeps the promo up maybe top 10 some day on the Hot 100??? Sidenote: I also really love when artists from older eras are in the same place together again. Missy and Gwen Stefani had major years in 2001-2002. The Rock Steady era for Gwen and the Miss E...So Addictive and Under Construction eras for Missy. And there they were together 13/14 years later, thrust into a world where the music scene is completely different but they're still giving it their all, as noted by both of them currently having songs on the Hot 100. The NOSTALGIA. They also both were peaking again at the same time in 2004-2005, as well. (Alicia Keys, Missy Elliott and Gwen Stefani at the 2004 Brit Awards) OKAY BUT NOW TO THE VIDEOOOOOO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean its rapping anyway, it's not like she's trying to hide that she can't sing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yanko 9,860 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 it would have been good if it was live i got tired of the song after like 10 plays so good luck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haroon 49,685 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I mean it looks nice and all but the way it's the studio track slapped on top makes it lose some magic for me I mean the two just don't match up for me, like if it was a heavy backing track with live vocals on top I'd like it more because the little changes and stuff would've been present and made it feel more "real" (?) Not quite sure how to explain it Like even if it was lip synced with pre-recorded vocals then I'd probably like it more than how it is right now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think she has much of a choice now, she has to be very careful performing since she has graves disease. It was the reason why she wasn't releasing anything for so long, so we kind of have to settle for performances like this that are taken down a notch for her or no performances at all.

I could be wrong It's the amount of movement in addition to it that would be high energy and could be a problem. The fatigue associated with it would make her sound winded and weak fairly easily unfortunately. There's other problems associated with it, but I don't know enough to continue on any further.
