Did you hear Adele at the Grammy's?


It was the most godawful atonal thing.  I suspect that she always benefits from pitch correction, but this time it must have failed, and she and was unmasked. She and the media tried to make up some excuses, but that was no microphone problem; a mic only amplifies what is coming out of your mouth.  No effect on pitch whatsoever.

Adele is great, give her the benefit of the doubt on this. As far as the Grammys, they need to find a way to cut down the length of the show. 3.5 hours is just too long, way too long. At least an hour of the time is commercials. I guess they just can't turn their back on any advertiser that is willing to pay about the same price per minute as the Superbowl. 
once the mic fell on the piano, it caused the piano to play out of tune with a bunch of noise that was playing into her ear monitors. Impossible to sing in pitch with that going on.
Excuses, excuses.  No, a mic touching a few strings would not throw a piano's approximately 230 strings out of tune.  People even do things like that deliberately, it's called "prepared piano." No, a mic doesn't change pitch. No, a real professional would not be thrown off pitch by external influences.  She had a bad night and gave a horrible performance. Then blamed the equipment.  



lloyds, why do you care so much?  What's there to be jealous or envious of?  What is it about others appreciating her that gets to you so badly?  Just let it go, why post something like this at all?  Looking for a debate, or trying to prove that your vies of her is the right one, or what???
