      The kids have a singer who can’t sing, a guitar as a prop as she can’t play it, dresses in skimpy clothes and has dancers?,, oh and flashing lighting to take there mind off the total lack of talent that stands before them AND OF COURSE AUTOTUNE,,,,,,, and Ray, well just none of that just great talent which the music business will probably never surpass.

      Tomas.
      You are 100% correct.
      And, do you realize that some of the greatest artists in music history, turned the lyrics of others into critically acclaimed masterpieces.
      Do you understand that?
      Because millions of low IQ weak minded sheep don't.
      Ella Fitzgerald, Ray charles, Frank Sinatra and elvis presley are the greatest artists in music history because they did the most difficult thing in music. Turning the lyrics of another writer into a critically acclaimed masterpiece. THAT is true artistry and genius.
      If anyone doesn't understand what I just said, you need serious education.

    How lucky we are to see this live performance. Ray has grey hair but proves himself as one of the greatest vocalists of all time. In fact he is one who sounds as good live as he does recorded! What I find comprehendible about Ray, and the other greats, is how he can accurately keep in time when he wants to but his best is to stray from the time. Keep in time and express otherwise; that's blues. Ray is the blues and soul great!

    Let me explain something.
    The greatest artists in music history, turned the words of another, into critically acclaimed masterpieces.
    That's exactly what Ray is doing here and on other classics.
    The most difficult thing in music, is the ability to turn another's words into critically acclaimed masterpieces.
    Ella Fitzgerald, Ray charles, Frank Sinatra and elvis presley did just that on numerous occasions.
    They are iconic artists. The best of the best.
    Anyone who doesn't understand this, needs serious education.
