If a performer uses a wireless, clever people can use a scanner or other receiver to get “vocals only” audio. You don’t need disgruntled audio engineers.

Why do you think they invented AutoTune?
(20 or 30 years earlier): Why do you think they invented lip-syncing?

Yep, that would have made her sound much better.

Maybe looser clothes would have helped? She was literally poured, like pancake mix, into that outfit.

Maybe she should have dressed more appropriately that is the most covered up she has been since she got those fake boobs... there was a time--late 80's/early 90's when she was lean and svelte... more natural... very pretty... and talented as a vocalist and a songwriter... she got the implants and started dressing tight and short and revealing... she is in her mid-forties and still trying to be the sex kitten... her heavy boobs are sagging, and it seems her voice has not aged well...

I always thought AutoTune was a studio enhancement (I’ve never used it). Do performers use it live?

I believe for some time it was an open secret that the guy working the sound board for
Wings turned Lindas mic. waaaay down.

Yes, they do use auto-tune live. Sometimes with unfortunate side-effects that do not reflect well on the performer. In a studio, you have much better side-pickup control. In a live setting, anything can happen.

Old? I thought she was only 40-43 or so....or maybe I’m mixing her up with another singer? Early 40’s is not old tho!!!

autotune can’t correct all vocal problems 100%. it can smooth over most but not all problems.
