Together home concert: 9 things we discovered

Feb 16,2020 6:54 am

Lady Gaga , Jennifer Lopez and Sheryl Crow were among More Than 100 cast members and guest stars

Lady Gaga roster Together for the home concert is ridiculous star looked all of them, from Paul Mccartney to Taylor Swift come together in support of front-line workers, while the coronavirus crisis.

The eight-hour broadcast saw More Than 100 musicians in your Living Room , and broadcast TV and streaming services around the globe.

Under the circumstances, the quality varies wildly, But it was a voyeuristic thrill, in the interior of the housing, in which Pop Stars of the expenditure of the lockdown are.

excerpts from The Show on Bbc One will be broadcast from 19:15 BST on Sunday, with UK exclusive performances from artists such as Little Mix , Tom Jones and Rag 'N' Bone Man.

Until then, here are some of The Highlights , lowlights, and other things we spotted, while the Living Room Live Aid .

1) Taylor Swift -all whiny

Taylor Swift once said she would never play, Soon You will live Better because of the subject - her mother's Diagnosis of cancer - was also emotionally difficult.

But she powered through The Night on Sunday, their eyes, clenched their hands tightly closed for most of The Performance .

In the frame of the Corona-Virus-pandemic, the lines about the bargaining with God in the hospital waiting room carried extra emotional heft, as you are summoned thoughts of people suffer from The Virus , and the concerns of their members.

When Swift's trapped voice on The Line , "What should I do, if not you?", More Than a few of us choked up with her.

2) The Rolling Stones Drums had - But no drum kit

" you would Never suggest in A Million years, we, The Rolling Stones played to a backing Track . But if Charlie Watts has a magic chair, there is no way this drum sounds came from his Living Room .

3) Charlie Puth has not even the trouble of his bed,

What will he say to his mother, when she sees? (Puth is in the house of his parents, so that we go half expected her to yell at him, so he could See half-way through his performance Again. )

For The Most part, though, Pop Stars made the effort to bring order - or, at least, all of the push shot, the unwashed dishes only.

But we were impressed by Delta Goodrem -in wardrobe striking positioning of your camera on your awards.

4) Stevie Wonder is a tribute to Bill Withers

"In trouble like this, we have to support each other," says Stevie Wonder . "My Friend , the late Bill Withers , has over the perfect song, and I want to remind us all of him tonight. "

He gave an impressive performance of the soul classic, blending in elements of his own Love ' s In Need Of Love Today . It was a perfectly thought and a moving performance.

Lady Gaga , who was just At Home , summed it up best.

5) Some People had better microphones than others

The home videos, a fascinating insight into the singers' home-recording set-ups.

Sheryl Crow won easily, the implementation of a professional studio that you have installed in your backyard barn in Tennessee.

now, consider that the space from a different Angle .

How many guitars can be a multi-platinum-selling to artists?

But Crow was one of the lucky ones. Other artists seem to have been playing a backing Track from CD to be reduced, and sing in your laptop, while The killer appeared to be Mr. Brightside play on a Casio keyboard.

Technical problems have been particularly evident during the pre-show, But Paul Mccartney managed the recording of his video in portrait mode instead of landscape. Rookie Error! (Unless, he thought, he would be on TikTok instead of a big international simulcast. )

organizers, However, global citizens, said the lack of Polish was, in part, intentionally so. Stars of The Show are struggling with the technology has helped reinforce The Message of solidarity.

"We don't want to understand [it] still believe professional,"

"I do, now everyone is that the people (vocals) from their homes. We do not plan, the number of the production, because we want The Money to go to The Cause . Because we really believe that what counts The Most . "

6) Jennifer Lopez brought some much needed glamour

What can you expect J-Lo to turn up in a white coat with her hair tied up in a dishrag? Let's face it, this had never happened.

to make Lopez stayed true to that up have all The Glitz and glamour we missed during the lockdown, as they played a syrupy version of Barbara's Streisand's ' people, while they bathed in the warm glow of hundreds of lights.

7) Christine And The Queens was concerned for our mental health

When the lockdown has you feeling low you're not alone.

"It's really strange," said the pop star Christine And The Queens . "It's all about screens now, and without human contact, and I know it will be draining emotionally. It is The Fourth week here in France and it was very intense.

"I know it's hard [But ] not hesitate to reach out to the people practically, if you feel," she added.

The Singer , whose real name is Heloise Letissier, went on to play, guys, I've Been Sad, sensitive and intimate song, shared her own struggles with happiness. It was one of The Night , most of the performances.

8) Technical limitations that forced people to be creative

Not everyone who had participated in a home studio or The Ability to play with your regular Band , which led to some clever video treatments.

Keith Urban is in lockdown, with his wife, Nicole Kidman , was his own backing Band , with three of Keith's all play at the same time on a cover of the Steve Winwood Higher love.

John Legend together in a colorful clip for his only Greater love shown, the more dancers who interact with each other, although they are in self-isolation (with a wonderful twist at The End ).

And talk show host Jimmy Fallon along with dozens of health care workers for a

"We can learn to dance, we can dance, everybody wash your hands," the rewritten texts.

9) Streaming is changing the nature of the benefit, shows

"Hi guys I'm Ellie Goulding , and I'll said a couple of songs to play For You ," you (you guessed it) Ellie Goulding . But The Singer cut a Track before The Show , Christine And The Queens .

It turned out that the musicians were asked to record a handful of numbers, with the shots, which scattered in all of the eight-hour event. Goulding, nestled between some zebra-print pillows, turned back on several hours later to play an acoustic version of Burn.

Presumably, the organizers felt that in the pick-and-mix-era of music streaming, people would not Stick Around for a full 15-minutes-Live-Aid-style set of each artist.

to be expected, But it is The Show given a feeling of Tempo, it may not have gotten without multiple camera angles and frantic editing are spectators came. It is the Form, The Format of the charity concerts for the coming years could.

The whole spectacle to be seen again on streaming platforms now. In the UK, Bbc One , a cut shows down The Best bits on Sunday Night .
