I LOVE WYCLEF JEAN. VIVA LA FUGEES.
The haitian cecilians. or whatever it is you say in that song of yours.
10:25 : Wyclef, please translate what you said to us in Creole.
David Foster*, Mary J Blige, and Andrea Boccelli. This sounds epic. I'm clapping already.
10:27 Bridge over Troubled Water, kind of cool in Italian. My voice teacher would be proud.
10:27 Mary J. I really like your covers lately. Starting with the U2 song you're covering nowadays. Secondly, bridge over Troubled water fits your stylings. You're super tasteful but always show off your chops. I'd like to apologize to you on behalf of the People's Choice Awards sound engineers. They didn't do justice to your awesome instrument. Thank goodness the Grammys sound guys know their stuff.
10:30 Two high notes hit. One by Boccelli, one by Blige. Two very very different sets of technique. Bocelli is opening up his mask resonance and reaching up into his passagio's extension. Mary J Blige is putting it in her nose and is grinding it out like a rockstar. Somehow, it works together. #musicnerd.
*Thank you to Brendan Smith who corrected me on this last name.
