Am I the only one who hated it when Adele's George Michael tribute at the 59th Grammys? "I CAN'T mess this up for him, I CAN'T!"
Roommate thinks I'm wrong for this, but as a GM fan, I was disgusted. Everyone stood up to clap, like "oh my god, she is soo brave," and I was like, wtf?! Why? Because she made some mistake and then said "Fuck," on stage??
The greatest performers ever understood something integral to show business : the show must go on. Clearly, Adele was not aware of this fact. George would never have done something like that.
"I just CAN'T mess this up for him!!" Hunny, ya already did. You messed it up for him the moment that you stopped the show to say you wouldn't!!
Sigh

She’s obnoxious and crude. Her voice is fading faster than any diva I’ve seen before her. It annoys me that an increasing amount of people are rating her amongst the best singers of all time and even the best female singer. She’s incredibly overrated.

OP, everyone here hated it. Her first attempt, her second, and the fact that the audience applauded her and not George Michael.

I don't really care what she did and what the audience did etc but for the song itself, I thought it was beautiful and haunting and I absolutely loved it. I have a hard time listening to it because grief is cumulative.

To me that was her "Jump the Shark" moment. She acted like a complete asshole, barking at the hard-working musicians and then using George's memory as an excuse. She acted like a spoiled brat.
And restarting was not worth it - she wasn't that good.
And r3 is right - her voice is fading. Whatever surgery she had is just showing how badly damaged her voice is.

It sounded better after she restarted.

I don't care for Bruno Mars but his Prince tribute was great. It made Adele look all the worse.

She already sang another song on the show, she didn't need to do this one too, since she obviously didn't have enough time to rehearse. She should have let someone else sing a tribute song.

Nope! Adele killed “Fast Love” and I don’t mean in a good way. When George sang his songs or when he covered another artist’s song he made it seem so easy. George’s songs are not easy to sing.

Helen Reddy was a trooper.
