I never really listened to her music before, and my 16 year old son told me she had an awsome voice, and now I agree. She is so beauitful too, love her eyes. Be Blessed Ms. Perry
I don't really know why that breathy voice in the beginning was necessary, but that falsetto voice on the first verse of the chorus and that transition to the chest voice in the second verse was really nice.
What the hell? Are these "horrible" messages just a troll? I can't believe how much there are those. I'm not a fan but she can sing live. I dunno how people have fucked up ears because I do a lot of music, sing, play guitar, piano. I can tell difference between wrong notes. She sings just fine live.
Fuck you. What the hell is wrong with you? Do you play and compose music? Do you sing? If you say that she can't sing live it is just because you hate her for sometihng else than her singing abilities.
TuomioK xD yes i did music :) I dont hate her, she actually has a great personnality, shes beautiful, she made some nice music, but rly, her live's singing hurts, sorry. :3
Daniel Thomas No?... She doesn't use playback. She also uses live back-up singers. So tell me: What the fuck is so bad in her singing live? Because she does sing in tune and basically sounds the same as in record. Only thing is that sometimes she is dancing AND singing so that makes it lot more difficult. So I honestly don't understand the critique. For example I saw Bruno Mars Super Bowl performance. That was nothing spectacular in terms on singing.
I think it's just a coincidence that all the people saying she can't sing are women, jealous? Btw she looks absolutely GORGEOUS and she sings pretty well live
I'm a guy and I can honestly say sh can't sing live. Same with Rihanna. They both have engineers who alter their voices in the studio with auto-tune and synthesizers. Sad really. They manage get away with it because of there looks.
Anyone who has actually ever sang live with a band in one ear and a crowd in the other would find her performance in this particular instance like a lightning ⚡
Rainbowglimpse lol no, I like Lady Gaga, 4th Impact, Tori Kelly, Ariana Grande, etc. They are all good singers. You really have the nerve to say I don't have the right taste in music? She is not comparable to them but she is not as bad as people make her out to be. No, she does not sound terrible, that's exaggerating. This wasn't the best but it wasn't bad.
i love katy perry since her "thinking of you" days and "i kissed a girl" days. she was not popular back then. i'm glad that she has made it on top. i believe in her singing prowess.
I'm sitting here reading the comments and laughing. Mainly at the ones that say she can't sing and the one that says if she didn't have all that makeup on she wouldn't be as big as she is😂 *wipes tears* 1.) you have to realise,when a singer is as big as katy...the more they sing in say a month the weaker their voice gets. Also when she dances/runs around the stage it affects their breathing which makes it hard to sing and dance at the same time. You have to remember it's really hard to do what katy does ecspecially when she's on a world wide tour as she's singing for a couple of hours every night for basically a year. I personally think she's got one of the most beautiful voices wether it's acoustic or pop,so from now one think outside the box as to why her voice may sound rustic,cause I for sure can tell you it isn't cause she can't sing. 2.) who cares if she doesn't look attractive without makeup (btw she does😸) it's not about that when your a singer,it's about how you sing,god.
This is actually a very good performance. Just because she didn't sing it exactly like the studio version (which she won't ever do because she likes to sing them different each time) doesn't mean she can't sing. You people think you know about singing because you've watched one single video about "learn how to sing" and you think that's enough. Not all voices are the same, sometimes the singer decides to sing some verses this way instead of that way just because. Not necessarily because she can't reach some high note or it's too damn hard for her to keep. Just because she likes it better that way. Can't you get it?
i am a musician myself. I play various instruments, one of them being the vocal one. The fact that she is out-of-tune is true. You can ask as many people that "know something about music"
Are you fucking kidding me? I'm a musician, and i can tell that she has a perfect voice... Listen some other songs live, and you'll see! Her abilities are unbelievable...
Why so much hate? ...Why can you have so much hate?...if you dont like Katy, just dont watch her, simple as that :) ... she wont be talentless only because you think that ;)
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag Drifting thought the wind Wanting to start again Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin Like a house of cards One blow from caving in Do you ever feel already buried deep Six feet under scream But no one seems to hear a thing Do you know that there's still a chance for you 'Cause there's a spark in you You just gotta ignite the light And let it shine Just own the night Like the Fourth of July 'Cause baby you're a firework Come on show 'em what your worth Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y Baby you're a firework Come on let your colors burst Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down You don't have to feel like a waste of space You're original, cannot be replaced If you only knew what the future holds After a hurricane comes a rainbow Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow And when it's time, you'll know You just gotta ignite the light And let it shine Just own the night Like the Fourth of July 'Cause baby you're a firework Come on show 'em what your worth Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y Baby you're a firework Come on let your colors burst Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon It's always been inside of you, you, you And now it's time to let it through 'Cause baby you're a firework Come on show 'em what your worth Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y Baby you're a firework Come on let your colors burst Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
In her eyes is writed all the love and the hope in that she does and that she loves... There it was three years ago and i'm so proud of her... katycat forever 3
+Katia doceira Excuse me !!!! I had just hit like and I am a Little Monster I love her voice when she sings acoustic and i think you should not say that
To those who says she can't hit her high notes. She uses falsetto to soften the version. Probably to blend into the season, which is Christmas. And this is acoustic version, she don't want to belt noises in this kind of celebration. She remove the vibrato to sound airy, icy and soft. Maybe look up to some of her Firework in her Prismatic World tour, where she sings the right note right.
Some of you are ridiculous. She isn't horrible live. obviously its going to sound different live. I have heard worse. Id like to see you guys get up on stage and sing live.
She may be one of my favorite artist I never realized I loved so much, until I found out what she went through and the facade and not being able to be herself and feeling suicidal. I never related to an artist more, hope she’s truly happy with her little girl
i don't know how some people can complain about this particular performance. Some of her performances are not that good but THIS! is absolutely stunning and beautiful.
I'm glad it does not sound perfect like the studio version. True live performance sounds exactly like this. If the artist is truly singing, then he/she can't dance because the would have breath problems with dancing and singing at the same time. If you see an artist dancing and singing, and still sounds perfect, then it is lip sync.
Gounda Mani Nope. If one singer can actually sing while dancing, that means that singer is really talented. To be honest, I hadn't seen any singer use auto tune or lip sync while singing live.
First, may I say, SHE'S GORGEOUS! And second, it's true that's she can't sing live as well as some others but she's got talent and nice personality too.
She may not be perfect at hitting all her notes, but she seems so nice and looks like she really lives and appreciates her fans. So, it think that's better than other singers who may be a better but are not very nice people. Ellie Goulding is and incredible singer, but when she performs she looks so bored and unhappy and ignores all her fans. Kind of puts things in perspective.
+Shay Bater depends on where you put your focus. if you're into good music then you probably go for ellie goulding (dont know her but she's probably more of a musician?)
Katy Perry would make a good Wonder Woman 😂
Yes !
ye
Yes💘💘
Trueee😂
OMG yas😂❤
Queen Of the pop
EXACTLY, if Micheal Jackson was the King of Music, and she's the ONLY female artist to tie all of his record she has to be the QUEEN!!
Madonna is the Queen, please, Shut up, Katy is a bubble gumer and plastic pop star..She suck.
I almost cried, this version is so beautiful, and she sang and performed so beautifully.
She's so beautiful in her little red dress :p ! And she sings so well, omg it's one of my favorites..
I never really listened to her music before, and my 16 year old son told me she had an awsome voice, and now I agree. She is so beauitful too, love her eyes. Be Blessed Ms. Perry
Shes so great in live ...the falsetto was great the whole performance was awesome ...lots of love for katy...love her so much
Her falsetto is one of a kind. Never heard of anyone’s falsetto that’s so warm and soft.
Katy Perry has one of the most beautiful, genuine voices in music now a days. I love her ! -3
12 years after this performance and I’m still here
I love katy perry
How dare you Taylor
Taylor Queen I've seen you. Comment once before
Wow a Swiftie loves Katy ❤️❤️
💙
I Love Ariana Grande :v lol
she so beautiful like a doll
I don't really know why that breathy voice in the beginning was necessary, but that falsetto voice on the first verse of the chorus and that transition to the chest voice in the second verse was really nice.
it was necessary cauz her range is 1 octave
+Woodz Old its 3 octave...
Woodz Old What are you talking about? Even Taylor Swift has more than 1 octave. Katy has at least 3.
This is such a sweet performance. I love how everyone's dressed up, including the band. Am I the only one who has a crush on them? haha
She's so beautiful and so caring towards others. I love her so much, she's the most big hearted person there ever was
She's a bitch
you bitch
fuck am I putting into
that bitch ass
+Agar.Princess Minecraft (KatyPerry) lol
OMG, she's so gorgeous and this version of firework is perfect
Can't imagine that she sounds so amazing in her studio performances!!!
She's so beautiful!!!!!!
Queen Katy Perry👑😍❤👑😍❤👑😍❤
She is drop dead gorgeous
What the hell? Are these "horrible" messages just a troll? I can't believe how much there are those. I'm not a fan but she can sing live. I dunno how people have fucked up ears because I do a lot of music, sing, play guitar, piano. I can tell difference between wrong notes. She sings just fine live.
u must do terrible music then and need ears
Fuck you. What the hell is wrong with you? Do you play and compose music? Do you sing? If you say that she can't sing live it is just because you hate her for sometihng else than her singing abilities.
TuomioK
xD yes i did music :) I dont hate her, she actually has a great personnality, shes beautiful, she made some nice music, but rly, her live's singing hurts, sorry. :3
Compared to Adele and Bruno Mars she is terrible live. Doesn't she usually mime her songs live though?
Daniel Thomas No?... She doesn't use playback. She also uses live back-up singers. So tell me: What the fuck is so bad in her singing live? Because she does sing in tune and basically sounds the same as in record. Only thing is that sometimes she is dancing AND singing so that makes it lot more difficult. So I honestly don't understand the critique.
For example I saw Bruno Mars Super Bowl performance. That was nothing spectacular in terms on singing.
She is The Queen
I think it's just a coincidence that all the people saying she can't sing are women, jealous? Btw she looks absolutely GORGEOUS and she sings pretty well live
I'm a guy and I can honestly say sh can't sing live. Same with Rihanna. They both have engineers who alter their voices in the studio with auto-tune and synthesizers. Sad really. They manage get away with it because of there looks.
@@danthomas8428 its sad that u think that way
@@danthomas8428 she can sing.
Of course they are Xx bless them xx
Anyone who has actually ever sang live with a band in one ear and a crowd in the other would find her performance in this particular instance like a lightning ⚡
this song just got re-freshed to the world because of The Interview! #RIPKimmy
omg my firework is so happy !!thank you for dedicating this to fireworks :')
she is so beautiful
She is absolutely stunning and more so in real life
she's so beautiful
She looks beautiful omfg
She's so beautiful, i can't even concentrate on her voice..
wtf this sounded good, haters going crazy for no reason
Ikr! I agree with you.
+Switcheroo Excuse me but if you had a proper hearing, you could hear this is off key AF
***** I'm sure you're a professional vocal coach to say that! She sounds fine, no one is going to sound absolutely perfect live.
+Switcheroo She sounds terrible. You have no idea what good singing sounds like because all the "stars" today are trash.
Rainbowglimpse lol no, I like Lady Gaga, 4th Impact, Tori Kelly, Ariana Grande, etc. They are all good singers. You really have the nerve to say I don't have the right taste in music?
She is not comparable to them but she is not as bad as people make her out to be. No, she does not sound terrible, that's exaggerating. This wasn't the best but it wasn't bad.
i love katy perry since her "thinking of you" days and "i kissed a girl" days. she was not popular back then. i'm glad that she has made it on top. i believe in her singing prowess.
i very love her voice and her hair
She's beautiful
She is amazing!!! I love you katy
I died with the girl at 1:23
I'm sitting here reading the comments and laughing. Mainly at the ones that say she can't sing and the one that says if she didn't have all that makeup on she wouldn't be as big as she is😂 *wipes tears*

when im feeling so bad, maybe after a LONG BAD DAY i hear this song, this video and my soul feels better. katy perry its my babe
Its her song guys. She can sing it whatever she wants
Blessed art thou Katy. Time and time again you keep my head above the water.
Her make up!!!! :) I LOVE IT!!! Too pretty. Beautiful song of course.:)
I abso-friggn-loutely LOVE her dress and shoes!
All I think about during this song is Kim Jong Un.
***** Me three
LOL
YES!!!!
totally!
:D
She is beautiful. She was so great with her previous performances. That's it. As expected when they perform live
This is actually a very good performance.

it's mostly out-of-tune. sorry.
AddictedToRock123 It's not out-of-tone. You so don't know anything about music.
i am a musician myself. I play various instruments, one of them being the vocal one. The fact that she is out-of-tune is true. You can ask as many people that "know something about music"
Would you mind writing a specific line where she's out of tone?
Matt Stevens listen after 1:00
She has a powerful voice, and my god she is absolutely beautiful.
Are you fucking kidding me?
I'm a musician, and i can tell that she has a perfect voice... Listen some other songs live, and you'll see!
Her abilities are unbelievable...
this is why i love katy perry. and to the haters IF YOU ARE TRYING TO BRING PEOPLE DOWN IT ONLY MEANS YOU ARE BELOW THEM
Why so much hate? ...Why can you have so much hate?...if you dont like Katy, just dont watch her, simple as that :) ... she wont be talentless only because you think that ;)
are you still alive?
Omg she looked so pretty here I LOVE HER SO MUCH
So beautiful !
Beautiful 🥰 red dress
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting thought the wind
Wanting to start again
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in
Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed
So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time, you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down down down
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
In her eyes is writed all the love and the hope in that she does and that she loves... There it was three years ago and i'm so proud of her... katycat forever 3
Katy push me up when I'm down...
5 months left for new year 2020. I'm still watching this💜😁
People who gave Unlike: Little monsters and Swifties. Amazing live! Beautiful voice.
Mostly swifties!
Being a Swiftie doesn't mean you hate Katy. I like both of them
+Katia doceira Excuse me !!!! I had just hit like and I am a Little Monster
I love her voice when she sings acoustic and i think you should not say that
,
Excuse me?I'm a swiftie and i love Katy.
At my lowest point, With no where else to turn, You keep me moving forward katy. You´re my only saviour.
HER voice is perfect
YES
Katy Perry live !! Fun 🥰👍😊
I love her so fucking much!
such a great inspiration.... ! thank God for a woman like her....
she is damn pretty !!!!

Canta muy bien en vivo, se escucha diferente pero no mal además es hermosa
I prefer this version!
Some of you are ridiculous. She isn't horrible live. obviously its going to sound different live. I have heard worse. Id like to see you guys get up on stage and sing live.
She may be one of my favorite artist I never realized I loved so much, until I found out what she went through and the facade and not being able to be herself and feeling suicidal. I never related to an artist more, hope she’s truly happy with her little girl
Love you Katy❤️
i don't know how some people can complain about this particular performance. Some of her performances are not that good but THIS! is absolutely stunning and beautiful.
Esta version es tan perfecta, simplemente katy es un fuego artificial que brilla desde lo mas alto :)
Glad I went to see her live when she was performing this on Bonfire Night (Nov5th) 2011 in my home city :)
I'm glad it does not sound perfect like the studio version. True live performance sounds exactly like this. If the artist is truly singing, then he/she can't dance because the would have breath problems with dancing and singing at the same time. If you see an artist dancing and singing, and still sounds perfect, then it is lip sync.
NSYNC did it pretty well lol
check out Beyonce ;)
Laura Barbulescu Yeah Beyonce's concerts are practically entirely lip sync
really did it pretty well
Gounda Mani
Nope. If one singer can actually sing while dancing, that means that singer is really talented. To be honest, I hadn't seen any singer use auto tune or lip sync while singing live.
First live of this song that I actually apreciate! Congrats, katy.
Katy Perry should share her millions with the sound engineers working at her recording studio.
First, may I say, SHE'S GORGEOUS!
And second, it's true that's she can't sing live as well as some others but she's got talent and nice personality too.
Inspirational , my queen :')
she is sooo stunning
omg this is so beautiful way better then the real version☺😉
alishba jamal she uses autotune. she cannot sing at all
calum hood ure so rude😕😬
Your very beauty katyyy😍😍😍
she is so amazinnnng
She is a PERFECT singer. Thank god she got famous
love you Katy Perry
I loved Katy forever she's Amazing talent singer and songwriter!(: Damm she can sing
Wow 1k people liked this video so much they turned there phone upside down and liked it again
The no. of Like and Dislike had already proved that Katy is Great!!
That's because more people have bad tastes in music than those who don't. It's called *commercial* crap for a reason.
Stop hating!! How you feel if you are a famous excellent singer and then all people in the world is haters?!
When you get older, you'll see she really can't sing.
Don't think so
just a little are haters. 57M add some facebook-ers are katycats ;)
Yeah, thats true
Fireworks Katy Perry
I loooooooveeeeeeeeee heeeeeer❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️😍❤️😍❤️😍❤️❤️❤️
SHE IS FLAWLESS!
Eu me arrepio toda quando ouço essa musica e choro tbm =C minha diva perfeita
She's very beautiful
q mujer tan bella
Katy Perry is so so so beautiful and awesome and funny
She may not be perfect at hitting all her notes, but she seems so nice and looks like she really lives and appreciates her fans. So, it think that's better than other singers who may be a better but are not very nice people. Ellie Goulding is and incredible singer, but when she performs she looks so bored and unhappy and ignores all her fans. Kind of puts things in perspective.
I feel like people like that are sometimes more worthy of their fame than the people who may have more talent but don't appreciate it!
+Shay Bater depends on where you put your focus. if you're into good music then you probably go for ellie goulding (dont know her but she's probably more of a musician?)
Vera Maria Yeah, she's an amazing singer but (from the videos I've seen) all she does is sing and leave. She doesn't interact or anything😕
Shay Bater dont know about that
Vera Maria I don't really watch her but from the videos I have seen that's all she does
🌹🌹🌹 Awesome to watch and listen again after years, this is so beautiful! 🌹🌹🌹
I miss your black hair 😓
love katy perry im a huge fan of her she makes people smile
i think her voice is special, she can sing better than Selena Gomez who really can't sing at all
Yeah true
+NhatAn-Elf13 Why hate Selena Gomez??? I know you support Katy but why put the hate on Selena??
+NhatAn-Elf13 does selena really needs to be specific in this one?
Grow up guys! Hating Katy wont make you pretty and a good singer :) Katy Perry deserves what she have.
This woman is .. WOW ! I don't have just one word to qualify her.
I love katy ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
La amo♡♡♡
