For those that went to the concert…did you see the snake wrap around the stage or was that for film only? |
Same!! But my kids (7 and 11) didn't seem to notice. |
I so want to see this but we don't have Disney+. |
It is for people who can't afford to go on tour! That's the appeal. |
Can you explain this? What's a sweetener? |
Sure. Its recorded vocal track added to the mix. She’s singing live, but there are recorded lines piped in there, layered above and below. I could be wrong and it’s being handled by back ups singers, but I don’t think so. When you listen to her albums you are hearing her voice recorded in layers, and she’s harmonizing with herself. Obviously not on the acoustic set. |
She uses the backing track because she doesn’t sing all the lines live. On some songs she only sings the chorus or the odd line here or there. The rest of the song is backing track and backup singers and she lip syncs. She has to protect her voice for the songs she does want to fully sing. She would kill her vocal cords if she sang for 3 hours at every concert. |
No. She’s singing the entire show. And yes that’s possible. She’s not doing 8 shows a week. She’s doing 3 sometimes 4 and a large break. It’s done by professionals singers, and she’s doing it. |
+1 This. I didn't have to pay 450$/ticket and wait in line for hours to realize that my daughter got bored after watching Taylor Swift in concert for about 45 minutes. But if you want to spend the price of a car to see Taylor 3 times in concert, good for you. |
I didn’t go, but I think it was just a CGI effect for the film |
I disagree. She has a live mic but especially on the older songs, she isn’t singing them all the way through. |
Thanks for explaining the sweetening. I thought she was singing the main tracks live, but agree there could be the harmonizing added in. |
I went to the concert. The snake was only on the movie - there were several things like that. I didn't like the additions, they seemed really cheesy. |
She plays long concerts so it just takes the pressure off her voice to hit every note or belt every line. She can protect her voice a little and still put on great concerts. |
You are responding to different posters. I explained sweeteners, and yes you are correct she is singing live. The above poster is wrong. Using sweeteners ( at least how they are used on this show) doesn’t save her voice. She’s singing 3 hours of music. What is saving her voice is being off multiple days between shows. |
