During Black Cherry re(LIVE) she sang songs from 2006 and sounded strong. I think it's a combination of long tours, nerves, and just age. Kumi is pushing 40 and it isn't easy for a lot of singers to hit certain notes after 35.

Whitney, Mariah, and Celine all sounded different after 35. It can't be helped when you're singing live every night and touring. The fact that she isn't afraid to see vocal coaches and be aware of the challenges says a lot about Kumi.

She looked great and she sounded solid. It has been great seeing her embrace television again. After 2013, she kind of backed off of it, which was frustrating but understandable.
