Watch her performances in big award shows and you know her live skills are fine. 

I don't like her but this video is just normal concert clip where singer is interacting with fans or not very serious to deliver a perfect vocal performance.

It's not great but her other performances aren't as off-key. I suspect she maybe couldn't hear herself and had in-ear mic problems or something.

She seems like such a lovely girl so I hate to see some hate, but in my opinion she's not super talented and nothing special

Oof, almost 300k likes, and counting :deadbanana::deadbanana:

She's not wrong about singers who aren't good at singing, though.

You can't have a perfect performance every single time. That's just unrealistic. She CAN sing. 

Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time.

It's so funny to see people get so mad over one single tweet. Like... none of these people would survive the ARTPOP era :poot:

I mean… this fan base barely did

And I just promised my niece I'd go see Olivia with her :mark:

I feel like after years of being used to Gaga's live shows I'm going to have to lower my standards :vegas:

Have her sit at a piano or play a guitar and sing and she sounds great! This is a one off performance where she was invited as a guest at Billy Joel’s show. I doubt there was much prep involved here. At least it’s clear there’s no pitch corrector or other effects on her mic, few other pop stars today can do that:trollga:

I mean... Does anybody go to an Olivia concert to listen to good vocals solely? I think it's an age thing. Even Miley used to sound horrible back in 2009 sometimes. The voice is not yet developed fully. We have plenty of non singers or umm.. whisperers pursuing music. There's room for everybody. Why are they pressed about Olivia only? :samanthac:

the last thing the world needs is another feet lover, but that's TOO BAD

it's just a bad moment, I think she has a pretty good voice and a good range capacity. Her tiny desk concert shows. She'll become way better with the years too, but she's NOT bad. everyone can have a bad moment a people can be so unnecessarily destructive (including most of the posts i read in this thread)

Listen to my debut pop single 'Want You Bad'! (link on Insta)

k Olivia can absolutely sing but this seems like she's talking more than singing (which is a stylistic choice) bc girl can ABSOLOUTLY sing.

Reminds me of Katy, not necessarily bad singing but her tone is not so sonically sweet or common like most professional singers, thus people thinking she's bad.

Katy’s problem is songs not written to her voice. Olivia’s is that she just doesn’t have a lot of good performance training like breath control, phrasing, etc.

it works for bedroom diary music which is a lot of her album and niche but it’s not really suited to arenas like she’s in now. That said, I get the frustration if it’s like um why would I “give a girl time” to work into being better at her job when there’s a bevy of other people with much less opportunity but are much more performance ready. It’s a valid critique especially when you compare the era of non-singing now to many virtuoso singers like we had in, say, 90s RnB. Like Brandy could SING. Even Janet Jackson compensated a more limited vocal range with impeccable showmanship and inventive musical production that utilized her vocal harmonies to incredible effect. I get where someone feels this is…well lacking commitment, frankly. If you know you need to improve somewhere in your craft, improve in it lmao Gaga did it post BTW and then again post ARTPOP and look where she’s at
