At first, I thought she was singing in German....

...after all, it WAS in Munich.  You've GOT to see this.  This was LAST NIGHT at the MTV awards:
 
  Kee....burrrr.....seeee....I...waahhh.....bllooo
 
 Was she talking that language Jodie Foster was speaking in "Nell?"  It's funny but a little sad, too.  Mostly funny, though.  What IS she singing?
 
 I give her two more weeks.  At least the times when I saw Courtney Love this trashed, I was treated to some totally inappropriate nudity.

 WTF, learn the words to your song. What a cum guzzler

[jd930]

Wow.  She couldn't even get the chorus right. She made Britney's MTV performance look stellar. Too sad.

I think that looks intentional as opposed to being strung out.  It's like she's throwing a tantie. Maybe the demands of her rider we not met?

[Brian_Wallace]

They took it down there but here it is on You Tube:
 
  Do you think she made a bet with Pete Doherty on whether she could sing the entire song without using consonants?

The worst part is Michael Stipe's GOT to be thinking "My career has come to this?"
 
 "Fifteen years ago, I was in one of best American bands ever and now I'm presenting an award to someone who I'm almost sure is going to vomit all over me..."

i was in a "bath and body works" yesterday, looking for a gift--as if i don't actually shop there for myself from time to time.  there was this well dressed, mid forty-ish looking guy with a suit from macy's proudly draped upon his shoulder.  out from the speakers came this poppyseeded, horrible attempt of maroon-five like noise, where this sir of dandy side steps through the many product picking up and curling a brow before placing it back to the shelf, found it the perfect place for belting out the lyrics word for word in perfect german.  i was frightened and equally impressed.

It was not that horrible. At least it was live. I agree it was not the best but all the words came out and she was able to get threw it. She looked so sad but thats also part of the lyrics. She lives and breathes the song.

If you listen and don't look it sounds very good!!!!
