Franch Toast 26,879 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Wow, I didn't know we had so many vocal experts on this site. (I know a few of you actually are though...) Now to be fair, I have zero singing ability, so maybe I'm less judgmental about her vocals than others (just as I'm not very skilled at applying makeup, so I don't get why y'all rag on Sarah Tanno constantly), but I don't see anything wrong with her voice in that clip. First off, it's a jazz show. Jazz is about improv, it's about soul, it's about being raw – it's not about serving perfect vocals 100% of the time like you'd find on a recording. Secondly, this clip is from the end of the song after she'd been singing her heart and soul out. Third, watch some of the other full performances from that same show, and you'll see she killed it overall. Fourth, she always bangs on the keys during that part of the song. Anyhow, I'd rather see her give an emotional performance at J&P than one that is technically perfect but devoid of heart. And even if her voice is deteriorating (I'm in no position to judge), we're not her manager, her label, or her vocal coach, there's nothing we can do about it. If she wants to smoke, she'll deal with the repercussions. If she wants, to drink, same thing. Of course I wish the best for her and her voice, and I want her to stay as healthy as possible, so I'd love to see her stop smoking, but only she can make that choice, not us. I know people mean well, but sometimes people's concern comes off as condescending and hyperbolic. She/Her/Hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilmonzter 2,864 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I think her breath control is way off She needs some R&R For her voice Sing C'est la vie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 25,164 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I do see her struggling to hit high notes like with Telephone, Bad Romance and Born This Way at the Enigma shows, I have a feeling it has to do with Shallow, the bridge and the forte last chorus is pretty hard on her voice, I hope she can find a sweet spot sometime soon she can do or lower the key, or just seems like it’s being too much right now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her voice is not deteriorating per say, but if you think the quality of her voice has not been on a downward spiral compared to her JWT vocals you clearly are delusional. She´s struggling to reach notes she effortlessly could a year ago and doesnt adlib like she used to. im also a bit worried about her. Her voice doesnt sound as fuller and rich as it used to imo. But I trust that she knows when to start recuperating. It could also be her technique, but I find that hard to believe considering how classically trained she is. At least her voice is not strained, she´s just sharp. My voice would go bad to if do 2hour shows every night Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borislshere 53,080 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 She sounds hoarse. Maybe she's sick anyway, her voice better not give out before we get a performance of INLA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

derpmonster 22,412 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 She's fine. And I hate comments like these generally. I do hope she cuts down on smoking and drinks more water, less alcohol. It could be dehydration (that affects voices a lot) but yeah there's a minor strain from how it used to be. I'm a vocal student as well. Her vocals have generally improved over time except for a few recent performances. But it's not bad in any way.

Lextyr97 19,958 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I think it definitely sounds worse but whatever. Her voice, not mine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miel 15,009 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Probably an off day. She sounded beyond phenomenal back in the summer when she last performed J + P. It’s not just her voice that was off- her piano playing was mildly awkward, and she’d round out sections in the wrong area (Poker Face ended on the IV instead of I). I think it’s simply that she hasn’t performed in a hot second. The next few shows should be fine! 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xoxo Craig 55,649 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I think ber voice just needs to warm back into the swing of things after having so long off... plus, she is going through a lot right now. I think she will be okay if she takes the right approach... idk maybe more vocal rest if need be. But yeah, her vocals at the start of the year were much better... even in June This was her in June this year, 4 months ago End Racism Now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
