She Killed It…It was all about emotion and she gave it…
She shoulda performed “Work” mixed with “I Wanna Be Starting Something”

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE CIARA. However I think she should of done a dance tribute instead as we know vocally.. she is not the best.

please, this girl can’t sing at all…. There’s no comparison with the Heal the world version sang by Tamia, Mya, Monica, Deborah Cox and Rah Digga on the 30th annniversary of MJ back in 2001

Please Ciara did great and I love the emotion behind of the performance. I do wish she could havve done a dance routine though, but this was excellent (coming from someone who has truly grown in the industry vocally and musically)

are we watching the same video? ciara was struggling throughout the entire song. look at her face and you will see it. compare this to neyo first tribute song and see. neyo sang his tribute good. this was a terrible performance from ciara.

Her voice is atrocious. She cannot sing, period.

FIRSTLY – that is definitely what the dictionary classifies as singing
SECONDLY – ciara is never gonna be aretha franklin or tina turner – her voice has never been crazy big – but thats a fine thing – her voice is unique and beautiful
THIRDLY – ciara is more than average, her voice is sprinkled with sugar and makes soft silky tunes like no other. I hope she makes music forever.

Cici looked so good and sounded beautiful! It was perfect with just her and the piano. I loved it! That was definitely the right song to sing. We already know Cici can dance. So I really liked seeing her just sitting down and singing like that. It was a great way to honor MJ.

and Michael danced most of the time, but he also slowed it down too. What do yaw think, Michael danced to “You Are Not Alone” and “Heal the World”? come on! Ciara did an amazing job! She’s great whether she’s doing a ballad or a hard Crunk record.

Not even gon listen to the hate right now. Won’t let it ruin the moment, cause it was great!

and @ carl Mya can sing! Watch her aolmusic performances. Trust, you will be surprised.

If I were Randy Jackson I would say: yo check it out baby! for me and for you … this wasn’t your best day … the arraignments were good but the voice wasn’t there!

Simon would say: The good news is you look good – the bad news is it was horrible.

I loved this performance

She sounded so elegenant and pure, I know she’s not exactly a powerhouse but she has unique vocal talent.

Im just glad she shows the world she can sing beautifully -> she doesnt get lazy and lip synch

PROPS TO CIARA!!! For being an all-round entertainer like mj and taking this gig on such short notice*

I think she did good. She’s not a beyonce but she is a suprano. Her voice is light and soft and beautiful. So big ups to CiCi for doing her thang!!! Go Girl!!
P.S.: Out of all the entertainers I listen to, Ciara reminds me of Micheal Jackson the most!!! ;)

Is the song normally that short?

I thought she did really well, her vocals are always soft but she still impresses me.
