Ironically enough!! After I just posted that, I found this.

 

Off topic, yes, but just wanted to show.

 

Elton John makes a comment to Madonna on lip-syncing. :lol:

 

So does Elton have any advice for Madonna? Does he ever.

"Make sure you lip-sync good," he said.

I've played a lot of THLAL and I think she had a playback track on the background and singing at the same time to help her, not full playback in my opinion

 

Yes, I think she was singing along to the playback. It's obvious that the 1998 track was there, but it's clearly not at full volume as when the live Celine and the track weren't singing at the same time you can tell it's quieter. :yes:

Well after reading through the past few pages, i respect everyone's opinions. Yeah i know, its kinda frustrating that she didn't sing THLAL live, i don't understand why she didn't, seems strange to me. We know she lips, shes been doing it for a while now, so i don't see what all the fuss is about, its not like we didn't expect playback here and there.

 

But all i can say is, whether it was lipped or live i don't really care. Because to me that still HER voice, and at some point whether it was 10 years ago or 1 year ago or what ever, she had to sing the song live to record it.

 

ANYWAYS I thought she looked absolutely fantabulabulous, she sounded amazing and she performed like the trooper she is... So BRING ON THE NEW ALBUM!

It's really a fantastic intro! I have always loved the way that was done.

Shame they didn't bother to use the new track with it, but it's fine. The video also shows that there were earpiece problems right from the start. It looks like their volumes were messed up the whole night.

 

 

 

Sidenote: I love how all of these articles are talking about how she flashed the audience and THEN changed into the leggings...but that's the reverse order of the outfits. ;)

The 2009 IDAN track is not intended for live use, it was purely for dubbing the TCWT DVD. If she started using that then it would create a load more problems. Furthermore, that recording is worse vocally than her current live voice!

HAHA that's just Elton being a *CENSORED*. The *CENSORED* is back ya know ;) I love the IDAN intro. It's really special hearing Is that alright I loved it when she said Omaha in her accent :wub: And the way she says Mejico? Forget it, I die!

I personally think that she was lipping to it the whole time, but then her team realized by the end, when she was getting lost, to just cut the volume down and then have her kinda make her way through the last few ad libs by her own. Just from listening to it, I think it is definitely not her singing when the song starts, and is pretty clear that she is not singing above the track. But, that's just what I hear when listening to it.

Any idea of special merchandise sold at the show? It kinda looked like there was a special program for it or maybe it was just a pamphlet or something?

Probably some shirts? Were there pictures of that earlier on? Edited by riobeard11

I don't think the white you see in that picture is her panties. It looks more like a spandex short type thing to me if you look at the way it comes around her legs. :hmm: Not sure though, maybe Frida knows. Dancers often use those.

I was wondering b/c of this pic:

A shirt on the left, but what I wondered is what the guy had on the right?

She usually has bloomers on under her short dresses for that reason. There are many shots in the pink Balmain short dress during TCWT where you can see straight up there. :giggle:

Those are promo posters. I saw something similar like that on their website but then it was removed later on maybe due to high demand :shrug:
Posted
:o Were they selling them on the website or just giving them to concert goers?? I want one!
Posted
It was only promotional, I think. I saw one of the people who went there tweet about it but since I didn't save the tweet and now I can't find it.
Posted
You didn't think to save the tweet for me? You really do hate me! :chair: I just looked on eBay and didn't see that or anything Jamaican up...yet :whistling:

Yes, that's it. Hers just looks like a plain white version though because most of the time they have a band and lace around the legs (if I'm not mistaken).

Even though some of us were not fully satisfied by her performance, i think it is clear how much we miss Celine when she is in Vegas. Almost a year since her first show at Caesar Palace... The worst part is that this whole Vegas thing doesn't seem to end any time soon... :doh: I just wish she could take part in such festivals more often...

Meh! I thought you already must have saved it cos you were following the Jamaica Jazz account. I unfollowed them now that the whole thing is over :giggle: I'm sure you may find it if you go through their tweets cos they re-tweeted them yesterday, I think. :shrug:

Posted
They said they would post vids so unless they did it as the PB&J account they haven't done so. I'll send them a nice email :) I'll have Diana add a JA feel to it. Did you see her tweets? Holy cow, like a whole new language.

Only Celine can rock a pair of ''Bridget Jones Knickers'' onstage... you go g/f :P lol.

Yep... that's the way it is now :P Now we're holding on the new albums, and hopefully she'll be released from the cage to do some nice promotion in TV :wub: :)

 

Until then... oblivion again.

Actually, now that I've seen the official clip with clearer audio, I think you are right - the main verses and choruses seem 100% playback. But that doesn't explain why she was singing live at the end while she knew the playback was still on. She must have been pretty desperate, and just started singing live so that the sound people would get the message and turn the playback off so she could do her own adlibs - as she knew she couldn't remember the playback timings. But as we know, they just turned the volume down, so we still hear both vocals.
