Exactly 💯

I believe that’s why she didn’t make it through! They already have plans and making deals for her😊

​@@valeriecross5879 really hope so! She deserves the world! ❤

Liv, we'd like to thank you and the band for dropping in! lol

AGREED🔥🔥🔥🔥

I don't get why she's even on AGT. She's already a polished star. She's well beyond needing a competition show to prove herself.

She's on because she's not a star. Yes she worked Prince, but no one even knew she was until now. Prince hardcore fanbase knows but not many outside of that. ​@@anovosedlik

How the F did she lose to an act of kids doing a phys ed get in shape exercise???????????????.?...

​@@TK-ex5nsBecause she wasn't that good, y'all are hyping her up for reasons unknown.

FACTS

YES! I said that aloud last night! With a touch of Jennifer Hudson!

Nailed it!

You should probably start listening to Joan Armatrading

She has Tina’s quality for sure, she is amazing. Why she did not go thru is beyond me.

That’s EXACTLY what I said re the three artists mentioned, with her own vibe mixed in! She is one of a kind. And I think it’s a SHAME that she didn’t make it through. I cannot stand the way the voting is set up.

Oh wow are they on here?

Same

I don't even know why she's on AGT. She's so beyond a competition show--I mean, I would assume she's a grammy winner already from hearing her.

@@anovosedlik Well, she's not on AGT anymore. She comes across as a bit arrogant, to be honest. Thinks she's a superstar and deserves everything. That's not what people like to see on this show, and that's why they chose Richard Goodall instead. He's raw, humble and genuine. And that's why they went with Ashes & Arrows too. Three cool and humble guys just singing without any crazy production value. Often less is more.

@@THU31 ...Goodall is one that I do believe is legit just a random guy. But most of AGT and BGT is totally fabricated. The magic is painfully fake. Slight of hand stuff is different (my ex roomie was a magician), but the mentalist stuff is SO fake. And even the music acts now are kinda BS. BGT's 2024, winner Sydnie Christmas, was already a mid-star on Britain's version of Broadway, yet she made herself out to be this girl that was just a receptionist with no previous work in entertainment. They also bring acts that do well on the other franchises (ie, take people that won on BGT and put them on AGT). The whole idea that these people auditioning are looked over, ignored, struggling artists is total BS. I feel like AGT is where you go when you've had a pretty good career so far, but you're stalling cuz the online world is super congested and cable isn't.

Absolutely !

I'll put her up there with Tina Turner any day.

Me❤

AMEN to that

💥💥not really... Sometimes.. Judges and ppl see that someone with such talent don't need the show to be recognized or make it... So save it for the smaller person...

@@marocampbell7367 That makes no cot damn sense. Give it to the "smaller person"? Whatever exposure the lesser talent receives would still be impactful for the larger talent.

@@marocampbell7367

She didn't have to make through she won at her audition

James brown is in heaven going HEY THATS MY SISTER LET ME OUT OF THE GRAVE

I dont now

Yes she performed with him and has come to Mpls a few times since he passed. Even performed at Celebration. She's amazing and the purple fam has known it for a while but it's good ahe is getting exposure so others know her!🙏🏽💜

STOP

Anyone with a microphone can sing over Mount Everest.

Lol he has a version of this song and it's called Wow

Yes, especially since not only Liv, but most of that band toured as part of the New Power Generation at some point.

how? she just screams

@@nathantowill2054 Give your head a shake, Sappy.

​@nathantowill2054 just because it's not your cup o'tea does not mean she does not have amazing talent, which she does.

@@thepoetthatwasi1722 a poet and artist artist comments. If you were really an artist you would recognize.

@@pinkpandas4ever130wow! Artist shaming. Such troll behaviour.

But the music business doesn't prop up talent like her because they want sellouts like Taylor Swift and Arianna Grande of the world. People who is willing to bow down a do whatever to make it in the entertainment world not people like her who refuse to kiss the ring.

Peoria isn't exactly central IL, but central IL is proud too. 👏🏽

Why isn’t she?? Honest question..I was just saying to myself while watching this that she needs to be signed up with a record label already!

​@@gizmo8361she's independent that's why. It's hard to get your music to the masses that way.

@@vanitysmirror Simon knowing her - should assist her in getting signed. All those years singing back up for Prince she deserves it.

@@gizmo8361 It's amazing how people who make it without really having talent and then you have someone like her has to work extra hard to get signed. I am sure people know her in the music industry - as to why she has not signed is uncanny to say the least. Her continued persistence, drive and tenacity will eventually get her there. And when she does - she will on "Top-of-the- World".

​​@@gizmo8361Because the music industry likes trash like Ice Spice. That's the way the industry is going people with no talent are put on when people with actual talent are thrown to the side. I should know, I'm also the talent thrown to the side because I don't have the "look" but the "sound" but nobody wants talent anymore mostly trash like what is on the radio right now nobody appreciates true talent anymore.

I can second this! One of the times I saw her live was in Minneapolis in a legendary small jazz club. I’ve been to a LOT of shows in my life - that show was one of the best shows I’ve ever been to. I was on a high, I didn’t want to leave the venue.

@@tenaocean4713 We seriously had goosebumps from head to toe last night..she’s incredible!

Agree! I saw an interview with her years back. She mentioned her roots are really rock and ppl don’t know what to do with a black woman in rock. Prince did! I am so happy she is getting this attention, she deserves it.

Black Pumas

On the short-lived TV show Alter Ego, a black singer, Anthony Flammia, with the Alter Ego The Loverboy, mentioned that he got signed to a record deal. But the label wanted him to do R&B when he wanted to do rock. So, some black singers want to do rock music, but their labels want them to do R&B, hip-hop, etc. Mary J. Blige did sing some rock songs in the Rock of Ages musical movie. Particularly, Journey's song "Any Way You Want It". She also sang a cover of the song "Stairway to Heaven". American Idol contestant, Melinda Doolittle, also had a backing singer background, like Liv. She sang Bon Jovi's song "Have a Nice Day" on Idol, where Simon, said she was" like a young Tina Turner". On Masked singer Kandi Burruss, as Night Angel, sang covers of the rock songs "Black Velvet" and "You Give Love a Bad Name". T-Pain did a great cover of "American Woman" on Masked Singer. He was covering Lenny Kravitz's version. Even iconic singer, Patti LaBelle, sang some rock songs on Masked Singer. She sang Heart's song "Alone" and Survivor's song "Eye of the Tiger". Though, her voice fitted "Alone" better than "Eye of the Tiger". Decades ago, on Star Search, contestant Reva Rice sang some covers of Heart songs on the show. On the past season of the Voice, one guy sang a great version of Journey's song "Lights". There is a black European melodic rock lead singer on the Italian label Frontier's roster. I don't remember the name of his group, though.

I thought it was, until the the judges started speaking.
