Britney Spears' live, isolated microphone feed



COMMENTARY
This is what happens when you have untrustworthy despicable audio engineers who upload these things. On the other hand 'Elvis', Freddy Mercury, Bruce and a lot of other performers focus their entireties on their vocal abilities. This instead of appearing to be able to dance and sing at the same time.

I think most fans would rather believe their idols can do both. In truth few can. It's called show biz. Show Biz is a world of fantasy and make believe. I'm not going to be hard on Britney because she's giving em' what they want. That's her style.

The stage has always been a magical place of illusion. Two minutes after the lights go out and the audience leaves for home reality sets in. The magic, the lights, orchestra and accolades disappear. They are addicted to the stage as much as others to drugs. They need to get their fix with regularity from the next show. When their fame and these shows stop happening for them it is then that they crash. I get that.

Living the life backstage in rock, Broadway or sports for that matter is not pretty. The magic only happens for the few hours they perform. I don't envy their addiction. I've posted this here for the purpose of bringing to the attention of my readers that these folks are real living human beings. They hurt. They feel. They should be respected for trying to share their visions with us. This gotcha stuff isn't very nice.

This wasn't meant to exploit her weakness. Rather to show how hard she's trying give it her all and doing the best she can with what talents she does have to give. Is there anything so wrong with that?
