Anxiety said:

its really sad!

she was so good.....


i dont know what this style is that shes doing

I don't really care for her but I like her energy. I liked the backing arrangement and vocalists but couldn't figure out much else...particularly what Fantasia was singing.

Yeah Simon's expression was like wtf is she doing? I think her vocals had to match her hair, loud, fiery and explosive!

she sounded like she was huntin' a no-good rascally varmint from here to tarnation!

Simon's clueless when it comes 2 original per4mances. I bet he'd have the same reaction of most Prince per4mances. That said, I loved Fantasia's per4mance. She's continuing 2 evolve as an artist and so has her image. Great vocals and she can dance!

Scorpion said:

Sadly, yes.

Anxiety said:

I don't usually mind her voice. But this song was waaay too busy for me.She kept doing one of those old skool Gospel music type of screams all over the place. In the black church we describe it as the "like-you-just-been-kicked-in-one-of-your-ribs" scream . Usually one good one is all you need for impact in a single song, though. But these young people nowadays have zero sense of restraint

What a non-event of a track. And her voice...it hurts my throat listening to it. She's a ghetto mess too.

Mong said:

I just want to sit her down and tell her that she doesn't have to sing every song like someone's put a lit firecracker up her ass.

Yeah it was strange but I think I saw that she was wearing braces. It looked like something was on her teeth. It's too bad I hardly understood anything homegirl was trying to say on that song but she's a good performer, I got to give her that.

This girl has always sounded like she was gargling shards of glass and trying to hoch a lugie and the same time. I have no idea why she won several years back.

Yall SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!



Simon was shocked at how good she was compared to ANY of them other contestants on the show...EVER

I am not a fan of Fantasia, but I didn't think the performance was that bad. The music was nice. It was edgy performance unlike the plain ol' vanilla performances that many of her peers give.

Anxiety said:

wtf??

rainbowchild said:

What? I'll give you that she is able to sing. That, however, was not an example of good singing. I don't know what in the hizzell she was saying! I heard some dipthongs and some consonance, but I can't say that I once heard a recognizable phrase. That was a' screamin'!

She wasn't so much dancing as she was strutting like a a thanksgiving turkey that was just plucked and stuffed into a lycra catsuit.

She's got talent, but that wasn't a very good display of it. Painful singing.

The song doesn't showcase her voice AT ALL. WHY is she focusing on dancing?? She ain't no dancer. & dye that damn hair, its worse than Keyshia Cole's old skunk red/blonde do

I liked it...

Fuck the performance, she looked like a RED hot mess. Homegirl know damn well she can't rock that hair color.

epileptic chicken

Oh Lord, if she doesn't sound like a member of K-Ci's family or WHAT!...

I don't see how that could be considered "good" at all when chick is BLATANTLY screaming. It's not even belting, its straight SCREAMING.

The expression was priceless.
