^True. at least the Michelle comparison, though old, is a compliment ... at least for me it is because I love both.

it's nice to see Michelle pimping Vanessa's album!

I think that if those girls were the real deal, we should also consider their number. There's a huge difference of them relative to their number during the actual recording.

And I get this feeling that Ari's vocals were meant to sound that loud during the bridge.

I seriously don't see what the big issue is. I'm interested in hearing what other people are saying about Vanessa, positive or negative. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Craft wasn't insulting Vanessa, he just pasted a couple of comments that other people had made about her. Yeah, I obviously don't like what some of them are saying either, but I'm not shutting my eyes and pretending they aren't being said. If you don't like it, don't read it.


Completely agree with Saba. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. And it's pretty fascinating to see what fans and (non-fans?) have to say.

They just looked a little different from the "four elements" video. : ) But, they were decent. Performing live for millions, I would've been scared for life. You could tell they were extremely nervous before the chorus came around.

I didn't not believe you, why would you make it up? It's just they weren't really good. I feel like if they are on the album it should have been solid. Yes, nerves or what not but I'm guessing they've done concerts in front of larger crowds, maybe not with cameras but it seems it was a big waste of money to bring them. From what I saw/heard any choir could have done the same job. I feel like that $$ (not that I know where it came from ) could have been spent on something else or some other type of promotion.

I like the idea of using local choirs for the tour. Gwen did it with a drum line.

I like the idea of local choirs, however, if the choir that sang on the album wasn't perfect...it's hard to imagine that others would be any better.  Plus for some shows there are only a day or less between performances. they'd have to star looking and training now.

I just finished watching the performance. I enjoyed it. I thought this version gave a slightly different feeling to the song (at least the intro).

For me it's a glance
And a smile on your face
A touch of your hands
An honest embrace - VC, Home

I decided to watch this performance several times today. And after each time, I grew to like it even more. I love it now. It was such a simple performance that, perhaps, most of us pressed too great of expectations on. Not all of the details were perfect, but that's fine with me. No performance is perfect anyway. And those smiles! I loved all of the grinning that showed half way through the performance. You can tell how meaningful this song (and the whole record) is to her, and how proud she is. May thousands of IDWTBAB performances come her way :)

I agree with this.

And I believe that they're not the entirety of the Capitol Children's Choir.
