Pink
« on: February 12, 2012, 10:54:03 PM »
OMFG her shows are insane.  I didn't see her live but I totally would.  I've seen 2 of her live shows now on Palladia and she does some CRAZY shit.  Tons of aerobatics... she was at one of those huge festivals and she got strapped into some kind of contraption where she was moving on wires WAY out over the crowd and doing flips and shit and singing the whole time.  You could tell she was singing too because every once in a while she'd get a little winded.

She did a show in Australia and she did the same kind of stuff inside an arena... literal aerobatics, all kinds of different physical stuff... she must be in incredible shape.

edit: and her voice is fucking amazing.  She did a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody and not only is her voice perfect for that song, but I think it sounded even better than Queen!

I'm not watching that, any assertion that someone sings that song better than Freddy Mercury can be dismissed immediately.

Your loss.  Maybe it's not better than Freddy, but it's damn fucking good.

That's actually pretty impressive as a live production, but I don't think her lead is on the same level as Freddy, she just doesn't have the same kind of power he had, especially in the lower range.

you're high. but I think Ethic proved that with the above post. Anyway, pink is cool - I also enjoy listening to her. You're still high though. Respect the Freddy
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Freddy's lead is better, but Pink's performance is actually live with all the vocal parts.... the Queen version uses a backing track in the live performance.

I just watched both back to back and I'll agree that Freddy's lead is better but the Pink version is damn good.

that guy's pretty awesome though.  I wish I had a decent home studio, time to do something cool like that and a good-ish singing voice. 

Also, since I haven't weighed in on this thread yet, Pink is awesome.
