The performance was great...BUT those background dancer really ruined it. :( They were just jumping around as if they all just came home from school or something.
This wasn’t Aaliyah this was ha cousin raniea cuz Chile this was ghetto and trifling the back up dancers were dancing like rent was due and still got evicted and the Mc need then vocal chords removed and somebody get that baby sounding like they been smoking for 32 years
In my opinion, her best live performance. You can see how happy & relaxed she was. I haven't seen any other video of her similar to this one. Rest in Peace Angel
I thi k the summer jam one where she performed her 3 songs she was pretty relaxed. I think this song is just more of an active fun song so she was just all over the place. But I was and still is a true Aaliyah fan 💞. Just wish she would have stole Nicole's 🎤 instead 😩
I agree she looks like she is having the most fun in this, but she also seems to be having a lot of fun performing with DMX in the MTV “Romeo Must Die” live performances.
Thanks so much for this rare gem I love Aaliyah but the people who did the mixing for her live shows were terrible her mic volume was up and down and the other lady on stage was louder and unnecessary.
They really dropped the ball with the mixing and with the sound in general. It's no wonder we don't have more rare performances available to us if the quality is anything like this. But with that said I'm so proud of Aaliyah. She worked through and still did her thing.
LMBO. Eye believe the original baby sample is from the Sly & The Family Stone album Small Talk. But Eye think Prince sampled it first and they got it from Prince. Not exactly sure tho
Baby Girl had soooo much energy in these earlier shows!!! She was singing and moving the whole damn time! It's almost scary to imagine how dope of a performer she would be by 2015! Thank you guys for keeping up with these updates. (Btw, I wanted to strangle that damned baby effect...) But this was a great performance. Her vocals and energy during OIAM through AYTS were bananas. That's easily her best era, IMO. I'm so proud of my idol!!!
+HotLikeFire92 if you look at the performance of AYTS on youtube, the uploader is aaliyahforevertv, she does higher notes than that. and a few other beautiful runs and adlibs, but the audio is crappy. :(
baby sounds demonic as hell. damn....like it was trying to clear his throat like a grown man. burping himself and coughing from smoking cigarettes at the same time. wtf!
There was a snippet for years on youtube, I would never thought in my wildest dream I would ever see full version! You just made my life, can't thank you enough.
@@SimbaTheGreat She wasn’t singing in head voice. She was singing in her lower register with falsetto in the studio. People get head voice and falsetto confused it isn’t the same. Head voice is stronger than falsetto. Aaliyah was singing in her singing style which was very soft and her signature falsetto in most of her records. Her she still singing in her lower register (chest) but her tone is heavier compared to her records.
This song needed so much more justice when it came to performing 😭 I wish she got to do it more and actually had all her dancers able to perform the real choreography.
I don't think this is a good performance by any means. very mediocre and amateurish. aaliyahs vocal choices make me wonder... why? I love the laid back and hip hop feel with the hype woman and Aaliyahs geninuine attitude, it gives her authentic credibility and displays her humility. she's having fun and that's so obvious and infectious.
Not only Aaliyah was just a guest for this concert and weren't on the rehearsal, but there were sounds problems during the whole day. Aaliyah's mic was way too low and she had to literally scream to be heard. They fixed the problem when Mary J Blige cussed them during her set.
#Aaliyah used to twist her waist so nicely for me, I hope she is dancing for God in Heaven the same way we enjoyed and still listening to her songs in Uganda here, R.I.P baby girl. we shall always miss and also remember you in our hearts until we join you in heaven........!!!!!!!
I think this is her best performance too she was having fun and confident here!!! I love you Aaliyah so much!!!!! R.i.p n thank you so much for finding this!
Well this is overall a good performance.......it just the the speakers , the baby laugh and the hype girl microphones were louder than hers.....also they could of kept the back up dancers in the back....they were trash💀💀
This performance was a hot mess. What's up with her background dancers and the person keep yelling in the background. The baby sound was getting on my nerves and that's why it sounded like aaliyah was yelling, and I know she can really sing.
Her live performances showcased how strong her chest voice was. She couldn’t sing high while dancing , it would’ve been tiring for her voice. So I love seeing this side of babygirl!!!
WHAT'S SO COOL ABOUT AALIYAH IS HER BACKGROUND DIDN'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT BUT SHE STILL WENT OUT AND DID HER THAANG MOST OF HER LIFE PERFORMANCES SHE GIVE YOU AN ENERGY LIKE NO OTHER AND IT'S A GENUINE ENERGY AND YOU CAN JUST FEEL THE PURENESS FROM HER LIKE I NEVER FELT BEFORE SIMILAR TO MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!!
can yall imagine after all these years how much her control endurance stamina etc performance abilities would have been perfected and performing this song on a world tour singing live with the classic "are you that somebody" dance routine?? omg rip aaliyah we all miss u and love you
It’s a fckg shame !! We don’t have much of her live perf and I’m soooo disappointed. She’s dead and we never had a chance to see what she could have be. Pls Lord, can we give you Kelly Rowland instead ? I’m ready to trade Beyoncé or Madonna
I love how confident and how much fun Aaliyah was having !!! Mic problems, but she still made it work.
Amen
+Tony Turner Aaliyah is still the best but whoever let the other bitch on stage should be shot.
Jimmy Page Lol, she was wild annoying.
Tony Turner don't say that to her tony OK
joyce mathews Say what?
BabyGirl was still finding her voice, just beautiful inside and out, with a amazing and different voice, god wish she was still here :(
I swear on EVERYTHING I LOVE, 2:07-2:15 was the ONLY clip I could find for the LONGEST TIME! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
At least she was having fun chile
My song 😍😍
2:41 was that a truck horn?? Somebody post the sound guy’s info. We need to have words 🤦🏽♂️
Back when it was about having fun, being comfortable, and looking sexy without jumping around in a leotard.
Aaliyah so beautiful and the DJ not playing lmao she said sang it 👿
ICONIC
1:31 mark, omg that damn baby sound effect
OH MY GOD
AALIYAH :((
this audio is horrible but this was a great performance
🖤💕💞
The baby sound in the background is Aaliyah as a baby! 👶
Lol, it's not 😂 it's an old sample from the '60.
The performance was great...BUT those background dancer really ruined it. :( They were just jumping around as if they all just came home from school or something.
lol! not home from school😂
Desiree H. 😂😂😂
Chasma Smith 😂😂😂😂😂right?!
😭😭😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂
The other girl was doing the most & the baby noise caught me off guard lol
Is that what that is ? 💀💀☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
That girl sounded aggressive as hell when she said “sing it y’all, sing it!” 2:02 😩
I fucking diedddddddd😭😭😭😭😭😭
She probably was stressed
Wish she was kicked out the stage so baaad
HELPPPP
LMAOOOOOOOOO
I hope the dancers didn't get paid
😭😭😭😭😭
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol
😭😭😭😭
Damn 5 yrs ago es shit funny 😂😂😂😂
1:31 wtf 😭😭 those sound people really did her dirty
I feel it was on purpose because the promoter had her only perform this song at small venues
At least it let them know that she don't lip sync & can really sing.
@@RdanglRd facts
😂
I wish she would’ve performed this more! This is one of her greatest tracks.
Loool I am CRYING at the loud baby noise 😂 I LOVED this performance, Baby Girl was having fun and I love to see it!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
2:21 youre welcome
I WAS LIKE WTF IS THAT 😭
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@thedude4795 HAHAHAHAHA thank u!!!! Rolfmao 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This wasn’t Aaliyah this was ha cousin raniea cuz Chile this was ghetto and trifling the back up dancers were dancing like rent was due and still got evicted and the Mc need then vocal chords removed and somebody get that baby sounding like they been smoking for 32 years
Lmfaooooo 😂😂😂😭
this made me laugh so hard lmaooo 😭
Aaliyah's performance was good but that girl nicole was meesed up. I'm not feeling it.😕
I wanna say I'm so happy this is uploaded but I really can't hear Aaliyah at all! :( whoever mixed the audio flopped lol thanks for posting though.
You can't hear her because her voice is weak.
@@TheCallowayBride lmao… her mic had problems stfu.
@@TheCallowayBride are you telling me you can’t hear all that feedback from the mic? And the loud baby cries? Her voice was absolutely fine 🙄
3:16 da fuck is that and I know that's not aaliyah 😂😂😂
+impossible The uploader added it in the video (for whatever reason)... The original version doesn't sound like that.
***** ohhhh ok
it's the original sample. Aaliyah's voice was never sampled on "Are You That Somebody", it's an old rumour.
AaliyahPL I never knew that
Emmanuel Molen I know I was trying figure out 😂😂😂
That baby sounds like it's in distress 😂
Hell Yeah 😄😄😄😂😂😂👍
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Needing some milk 🥛
This was ghetto lol😂😂🤷🏾♀️
the woman in the background is shouting and can't hear Aaliyah
Right she need to be quiet
so annoying
@@isaidwhatisaid3564 LMAOO☠️
That is Nicole Wray, dope artist! (Not so dope hype man) 😂😂😂
Maybe they should have given Aaliyah the MIC the other woman had we could hear her. I seems like it was working better.
Hahaha, right!
Lol.
@Tev hahahaha
This is so awesome. Seeing her performing and happy, makes me happy, on what otherwise would be a very sad day for me as an Aaliyah fan
Taylor Reed why what’s going on
@@amadwooten4006 she died
MiguelEvil 2 dude she’s been dead for over 17 years why are people still grieving over her like it’s ridiculous
@@amadwooten4006 idk lol they forgot about her and suddenly remembered
Yeah I here you
those baby sounds. lmao. i'm dead. deceased.
between Nicole Wray and that damn extra baby added in I just can't with this performance 😂😂
dahighbar ikr idk why Nicole didn't shut up.
She was a very bad hype man. But it's something that the whole crew used to do when they performed live with each other.
dahighbar right!?..... dead ass
dahighbar and it’s like Aaliyah was high as fuck
Too funny omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In my opinion, her best live performance. You can see how happy & relaxed she was. I haven't seen any other video of her similar to this one. Rest in Peace Angel

Yes, such a shame the sound was truly lame but she still managed it like the professional she was. R.i.p beautiful girl
Why didn't Aaliyah switch mics with the hypegirl since hers was clear
😂😂🤷♀️
Lmaooooo periodd!
Her name is Nicole Wray smh
@@vanchi7667 oh snap I never realized that was Nicole Wray
Right hers was loud and clear 😂😂😂😂😂😂 she was so annoying
Nicole was trippin and that damn baby was acting up at the end lol 😂 but Aaliyah looks so damn good as always
brandon Higgs lmao the baby was acting up 💀
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 the sound people suck and Nicole was not needed as a hype girl
The moment when those baby laughs are louder than Aaliyah singing
Thanks so much for this rare gem I love Aaliyah but the people who did the mixing for her live shows were terrible her mic volume was up and down and the other lady on stage was louder and unnecessary.

Did anyone else hear that loud baby noise. 😂😂😂
The baby sounds is in the original song

That note she did from 3:10 to 3:12 where she shouted high was awesome.

Wow she really went for it! Never noticed.
that baby sounds like she or he vomite all the time 😅
baby sounds demonic as hell. damn....like it was trying to clear his throat like a grown man. burping himself and coughing from smoking cigarettes at the same time. wtf!
Swing Lo' Sweet Chariot' its pretty funny : )

Yo, I'm dead! xD
RawNoiz Ent. 😂😂😂
Is it me or the baby sound like it has a cold
Fr😂
That baby sounded like it threw up.
@@denisegill2667 😄😄😄
@Hazel E Exactly!
LMFAOOO
If that girl in the back Could shut tf up and turn the music down a lil bit then maybe I cook hear the Queens Voice ❤
She came out there and ripped it while chewing gum. LOL. Miss her.
wow! this is the first LIVE version I seen of this song. audio is flipped, but my ears remixed it. so much swag!
i can tell Aaliyah had a good laugh before performing😇👌💯😞
What in the world is wrong with the baby??? 😆😆😆 That’s a Great Value baby! They ordered that baby on Wish!
what the FUCK is wrong with the sound? Aaliyah deserved better
the mic was acting up
Y'all do know that's Nicole Wray with the hat on right!!
@@cameronlockhart5715 I know that's right.
That’s weird
The hype woman really ruins it. Thank god that trend died in the 90s lol. Aaliyah was not a rapper, why did she need that woman screaming?
There was a snippet for years on youtube, I would never thought in my wildest dream I would ever see full version! You just made my life, can't thank you enough.
she has two different tones one live and one on the actual songs....its interesting rip baby girl
Her live voice is an octave lower so she can dance and sing. Chest voice vs head voice in studio
@@SimbaTheGreat you can definitely hear that
@@SimbaTheGreat She wasn’t singing in head voice. She was singing in her lower register with falsetto in the studio. People get head voice and falsetto confused it isn’t the same.

Torrie Lashae my fave part
Torrie Lashae yesss🔥
She came in Gangsta
Wow whoever you are thanks for uploading this. Aaliyah sung this song perfectly without her voice cracking. R.i.p baby girl
She's was so pretty 😊😍 Rip baby
Somebody got fired lol.. whoever she was pointing to ...

Omg the baby sound literally has me Ctfuu what is this?! come on y’all doing my girl dirty
3:10 going on is beautiful but not nicole with the baby noise she said “ eeeeaaaahyyyyaaahhhh”😭
They should've had Aaliyah performing this on the big stage! as classic as this song is.
Stage presence she had 🔥👌🏽💯👌🏽
It’s an upload issue with the vocals not the actual show. Nicole Wray was doing a lot but Aaliyah killed it. She sounded great
#Aaliyah used to twist her waist so nicely for me, I hope she is dancing for God in Heaven the same way we enjoyed and still listening to her songs in Uganda here, R.I.P baby girl. we shall always miss and also remember you in our hearts until we join you in heaven........!!!!!!!
OMG finally. We have this full performance in HQ. She sounds so amazing. Thank you so much for sharing.

I've never seen her like this. I love it! 😘
This was the definition of perfection ghettonesss😭😭😭.!
Chill out 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Perfection ghettoness. 😭.
She was high
Whoever was doing the equipment sucked trash. Aaliyah would've killed her red album tour damn.... Wish she had more time
The baby sounded like a mixture between the flying dinosaur and a ringing phone... pterodactyl 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
😭
I think this is her best performance too she was having fun and confident here!!! I love you Aaliyah so much!!!!! R.i.p n thank you so much for finding this!
That’s Nicole Wray 🤣 she’s actually a dope artist.. But a terrible hype man 😂
Damn wtf is the sound engineer doing?!?!
Everytime she performs this song her mic is fucked up😭😭 poor baby I know she was mad asf
@2:51 - @2:59 She Slayed My Life With Her Falsetto Note . Miss Aaliyah So Much 🌹😭🌹😭🌹
It’s hypnotizing
Well this is overall a good performance.......it just the the speakers , the baby laugh and the hype girl microphones were louder than hers.....also they could of kept the back up dancers in the back....they were trash💀💀
Her energy is unmatched and immaculate.
I love Aaliyah, beside the microphone problems her voice doesn’t sound good here 😅
yeah there’s too much going on
Is Nicole wary her hype woman?

Wtf.... I know those weren't her real dancers 😳😳... she was never a strong live singer... but still luv her tho
Keith Amos how u say u love her but doubt her singing abilities....like make it make sense 🤷🏾♂️

Seems like she just drop by as a favor and did 1 song. Thats why shes not prepared for the show as usual.
That baby is so disturbing oh well “that’s the way the laughing baby’s biscuit crumbles.” To Shea my self to Shea indeedy.😎
