Same. It's so genuine and just says so much about the power of a hit that was 20 plus years ago and they hear the chords. Ugh!!!! love that part. my fav if anything.
I love how the audience came in strong with that intro!!! Really love this era of hers where she’s embracing her older songs that some of us connected with so much. Her voice is timeless to me. 👌💛
It's great that she made her peace with "Candy". She was ashamed for the song for a very long time. It's wonderful how she grew up and found her place as an artist. I wish her all the luck in the world. She is so natural and kind.
Yes! I never thought I’d hear her sing it again. She’s so talented and this song is how so many of us discovered her. Love her so much, wish she would sing more.
I can’t stop watching this video. It’s so beautiful. She’s performing with her husband while pregnant with her baby, singing the song that introduced her to the world and everyone is singing along.
Yo this band and her 2022 vocals are EVERYTHING!!!! This feels nothing like the bubblegum sound it used to be!!!! I looooove this rendition of the song!!!!!
I think that in the original recording of the song she's kinda overusing the vocal fry (channeling Britney Spears) and also bringing in some overused soul overtones (channeling Christina Aguilera), and the fact that she was being forced to copy other's trends is why she has resented her pop career for so long. This might be much closer to her own personal interpretation of the tune, which already makes it quite special :)
When you get signed to a record label, they fight with you and try and get you to sing and sound a certain way. You either play that game or don't. Even people like Josh Groban WAY back years ago was signed and given a vocal coach for over a year to sound like the Josh Groban you hear today before recording his album. Women have it worse, and Mandy Moore was competing with Britney, Christina, and Jessica Simpson during those years.
@@jimmorrison4ever529 and she can out sing all except Christina. And they can’t really be compared because she’s got a sweetness and almost like a Burlesque dancer, she gives just a bit of sexiness and reels it back. Christina is less subtle. She is all power and a more in your face sex bomb. When she sings Dirty it’s very believable.My only complaint is that I think Christina does too many “ fills” and it can come across as just making noise just because she can. When it comes to Britney, no matter how many times someone says “ oh she can really sing!” , I just don’t hear it. There is so much auto tune and limited range. She has the same dance moves over and over and the sexiness is contrived. She’s more a performance Artist to make up for the limited range she has vocally. I think she was pushed way too soon, too young into being sexualized which is a common mistake in the industry. You see Mandy Moore and Debbie Gibson being able to cross from innocent child star into Womanhood without crossing into the raunchy side. That is how they remain timeless and in my opinion more powerful. They seem to be able to not go off the rails, or wind up with serious substance abuse issues , they aren’t all over in tabloids with salacious dramatic headlines etc. It must be that they have a strong and Loving support system with peoples around them that helped to guide and protect them along the way without exploiting them for their own gain. As such they have become strong Ladies in charge of their careers. Britney and Christina both have rather tragic childhoods and in Britney’s case add serious mental health issues with a greedy “ parent “ and sibling . Sorry for long response here. 😆 I’m kinda sleepy, was kinda on a tangent here and hopefully it makes sense. After I’ve slept I will likely wake up and think “ yeah.. probably should not have typed all of that.”🤦♀️🤷♀️
Honestly, I wasn’t a big fan of the song back then but this made me smile the entire time. It’s nice to see her reconciling her old self with her new self. You can only do that when you’re really secure with your new self.
LOVE how comfortable she is with her groove and movements!!!! LOVE how she friggn ROCKS her preggo bump and comfy clothes. All in all…..100 %!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know she isn’t or wasn’t a big fan of this song for a long time, she still got it though and I think her sound is even better than it was back then this song is Mandy, I love this song because it reminds me of my childhood I liked her way more than Christina , Britney and the others from that time ,Mandy was different but in a good way ,Mandy Moore is awesome 😎
I was glad she was able to reconcile with her songs from when she was a teenager. I know as a woman in her 30s, looking back at her teen self was probably a little embarrassing. But I don’t imagine her singing any other songs at that age. She was introduced to us at the age of 15. It would have been disingenuous of her to be singing about love and heartbreak at that age. This pop song comparing love to candy was perfect for that time. And the fact that she did the spoken word and everybody followed along, gave me life.
Great live performer! I always loved this song. So glad to hear that she is finally getting comfortable owning her past as a teen pop star-no shame in it. She was and still is so talented-no auto tune like most pop stars today. A great song and great talent never goes out of style.
I LOVE that she's been able to embrace her beginnings & receive the love her fans have for that song. She's clearly having as much fun as the audience!
omg this is so beautiful. I think an artist doing something like this shows they're not insecure and they know they had a massive hit, but they're not a one hit wonder. They had fans who followed them from the beginning.
I was so Mandy obsessed as a teenager! I even met her in person once and she was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO nice, sweet, pretty, gracious! I’ll always love her for that 💓💓💓💓
A classic from a beautiful person. Seen a Interview years ago when she said...." I might not be the best I just wanna be remembered for the right reasons " ......Then......yah
This is great and super nostalgic! Mandy you sound amazing after all these years, dont forget to do the other classics! just listen to the crowd, we've been craving for you to perform them live again!!! Hope she includes "walk me home, i wanna be with you, crush, in my pocket, cry, have a little faith in me, my only hope, when i wasnt watching, in real life, four moons, little dreams, and non official singles that im sure we all know and love like "everything my heart desires, the way to my heart, it's gonna be love, all good things, on top of the world just a little word changing to SO REAL and that bop will be fire too✌🏽
Actually, Mandy's been talking in interviews about how excited she is to perform some of her early hits on this tour! I know that, specifically, includes "My Only Hope" 'cause she mentioned that this tour is the first time she's ever sung it live to an audience! She realizes she was diminishing her early career and doing a disservice to her fans by not performing her old songs for so long. So, yeah, I don't know which ones (other than "Only Hope" & "Candy") but, Mandy definitely made a conscious effort to include her classic songs on this tour's set list! 😊

It’s so amazing that she found a place of gratitude for this old gems.
I know right! She used to always go on about how much she hated all her old music. I'm so glad she had a change of heart!
@@aratreyadoesthings4924 yesss 💕💕💕
No u don't. Hahaha no. Jennifer. No jocelyn.
When people realized the Candy chords 😂 always give me chills.
I may or may not have teared up 🥹🥹
Same. It's so genuine and just says so much about the power of a hit that was 20 plus years ago and they hear the chords. Ugh!!!! love that part. my fav if anything.
@@kristophergracia3162 and there's nothing wrong with that, I got chills lol

Why would she be ashamed for this song?
ashamed? how ungrateful then it's literally her most successful song ever released
I’m ashamed I had a child with the worst baby mama EVER! But I love my daughter 🤷
What is up with that dress?? Is she Amish now??
Her voice has matured SO well
I can’t stop watching this video. It’s so beautiful. She’s performing with her husband while pregnant with her baby, singing the song that introduced her to the world and everyone is singing along.
Brings back those hot summer months 1999 memories…. 📝
Yo this band and her 2022 vocals are EVERYTHING!!!! This feels nothing like the bubblegum sound it used to be!!!! I looooove this rendition of the song!!!!!
I think we all love the bubblegum pop this used to be and appreciate the new arrangements too.
I remember my Brother he loves Mandy so much but now he's gone , this song is one of his favorite 😢
I'm sure he's watching the concert from a good place. Hugs to you and your brother. 🤗
So sorry ❤️
I can already tell this is a different arrangement and she’s using her voice differently than she did back then. I like that.
I think that in the original recording of the song she's kinda overusing the vocal fry (channeling Britney Spears) and also bringing in some overused soul overtones (channeling Christina Aguilera), and the fact that she was being forced to copy other's trends is why she has resented her pop career for so long. This might be much closer to her own personal interpretation of the tune, which already makes it quite special :)
She grew up....so did her voice lol

@@tracylynnedgar5788 She's not singing out anybody. She is no Mariah Carey/Whitney Houston. LOL Delusional.
i've always felt that this song truly showed her vocal prowess and this performance proves it. Love her voice!
She finally did the spoken word part ;)
it's amazing the crowd immediately reacted to it only after one or two code progression
She did good to revisit her old songs ! So cool that her husband is jamming next to her
Which one is her husband?

Wait, she's pregnant again?
@@annaklingensmith6268 yeah, she found out on tour and canceled the rest of the shows
@@SpookyAsuna No idiot. You don't get that large and then just "find out" you're pregnant. lmao.
@@SpookyAsuna did she really? So glad I got her concert June 22
@@annaklingensmith6268 she's 7 months now . I saw her June 22 and she said she was 6 months

Pregnant looks good on Mandy. What a lucky boy that he gets to hear his Mama sing constantly.
Take us back Mandy!!!!!!
I love this song. I remember it like it was yesterday. Such a fun song. ✨✨✨
I too .

Something about her voice is so calming. I wanna take a warm bath in her voice, if that makes any sense.
I knew she could hold a note but her pitch is pristine🔥 Such an impressive ear🔥
I LOVE the fake out of the guitar intro until the recognizable chords and then the drums and everything comes in!
I LOVED this song when it came out…long live the TRL days.
Great live performer! I always loved this song. So glad to hear that she is finally getting comfortable owning her past as a teen pop star-no shame in it. She was and still is so talented-no auto tune like most pop stars today. A great song and great talent never goes out of style.
this is honestly so cool that she's doing these gems in 2022. reclaiming them as wonderful reminders of her journey.
I literally smiled the entire time. I love me some candy Mandy ❤️
I’m still smiling!
This song is EVERYTHING
Everything!!!
I'm glad she's embracing her old songs she went years talking shit on them
Mandy Moore living her best life. So happy for her. 💙🍭
I love Mandy's music & so happy she's performing again! She sounds amazing!
She has a great tone in her voice. Love this 💕
Ooh uh yea yea yea yea yea😍

She still has it !!🥰🥰🥰My favorite song of hers !! I love this song ! Good to dance to !
She looks so happy and that’s all the matters y’a know

I want to see her live SO BADLY 😂😭😹
I was there, such an amazing show!
Me too! Had a great time.
Reigniting her singing career, smart after the show. Loved that old Mad Tv sketch with Will Sasso as her songwriter for hire.
I love this!! I smiled while listening the whole time!!
Love this! So happy she’s chosen to embrace her old songs, they mean so much to us who were fans back the
Fun fact: in 2000 for Kids Choice Awards, she co-hosted for the music category but before she won "Favorite Rising Star"
This song was always such a mood!
