TO BE probably could have been changed a bit to fit her vocals now more especially towards the chorus. The original as it is kind of requires her to sing out of her nose and she rarely if ever does that anymore.

ourselves sounded nice I think. It'll probably be in the tour with the attention it's getting thus far.

I'd say this is probably a result of not warming up properly and not performing much in the months after CDL. I think she almost always never has proper warmups prior to MS performances which is why they are always so hit or miss. Even when MS appearances were normal for her, the vocals were shaky back then and it's even more obvious now since we only get maybe one a year at best.

And part of the issue is that since she doesn't appear on TV much in recent years and instead tours all the time, she basically goes into live performance mode which doesn't really fit TV as much as it does the stage. The only thing that could help is that if she was told to reel it back a bit since TV performances don't need that sort of exaggerated nature to them or if she got used to doing TV lives again but it may be better to just stop appearing on TV since her presence is already rather small on these sorts of shows. Not to mention that just about all the shows she used to appear on have stopped airing.
