Well it's in a different key to the studio version, and if she recorded a new version to lip-sync, I doubt she'd have left in the off notes...

Watching interviews to the show producers, I understood there wasn't enough time to change radically the program (after learning about Whitney). Jennifer was already set to sing and probably the fatest way to include tributes was... Hey, sing I will always love you instead of this song

I realize all I have to do is flip on youtube but just off the cuff I'd like to say that I've never heard a song by Adele yet.

Can't stand her music!

But I'm probably in the minority - for some reason I can't fathom she seems to be adored.

I am 100% in agreement with EVERYTHING you've said.

Thank you.

Default some thoughts...

I adore Bon Iver! I was so pleased about that.

Glen Campbell, though, that was cool.

I really hate offending people, but I was NOT feeling the Beach Boys at all and let me not even express my feelings on Adam Levine.

I loved the last performance by Paul McCartney, but the first one was 'meh.' I'm just not into that song, tbh. I can like some solo Paul from time to time, but there's only a bit I really love.

I can't stand Taylor Swift.

I looked the other way with Nicki Minaj or whatever her name is...dear gawd.

I thought Jennifer Hudson's tribute was very nicely done.

BRUUUUUUCCCCEEE!!!! I love Bruce, and he is a great performer. But that song was 'meh' to me as well.

We agree, I had my wife running in the room, cause I screamed when Bon Iver won.....loud

I agree with everything too.....beach boys....Explain to me the love

Me too. I guess we need to ask Lindsey. I've NEVER understood love for the BB.

And I'd wager $50 that some of their vocals were lip synced.

I'm confused about Lindsey because, although he definitely acknowledges Brian Wilson and Pet Sounds as inspiration to him, he seems to be drifting more and more away from labeling the BB as a main influence. Like, he made this top albums to listen to list on Amazon and I don't even think the Beach Boys were even on the VERY top of that list- like we would expect of Lindsey.

In fact, here is his list.

And YES, I highly approve with great love his choice to put John Lennon's solo album in his top 10 and not include one Beatles album. Man has the kind of punk edge I can love. And POB is flawless.
