This was a week or so ago on the AMAs...This is the country band Sugarland singing Beyonces Irreplaceable...I think they butchered this song and they should have never chose Sugarland to sing this or atleast pick another song lol. This is in my opinion...terrifying...:doh:

I like the original and I appreciated the performance for the AMA's but I didn't particularly LOVE their cover of it. The only thing I really liked was Beyonce coming out and doing it with them. It was a cool performance, just not a great arrangement. Jennifer Nettles is better doing upbeat type stuff, she can't really get the same attitude behind her voice for a song like this. It's too "angry woman" for her voice, in my opinion.
Did you see the Chris Brown performance? I think that one and the Alicia Keys thing were the top performances of the night. The Chris Brown thing was just bad ass, when they did the suspension towards the end, I nearly screamed, that was just fucking cool. And T-Pain tore it UP!!!! Seriously, awesome performance.
Here's the crap quality vid of the "Kiss Kiss" performance::

Best of the night, hands down.

I didn't give a crap about the song. I liked the mix and the performance. Especially the suspended guys at the end. Was cool to watch.
The lip sync was a little irritating but I can understand why he'd do that. The start of that whole thing he was doing all kinds of wild dance, there's no way in hell he'd be able to keep up with both. I'd rather see them lip sync and have a bad ass performance than actually sing and it suck hardcore. T-Pain wasn't lip syncing though so it worked fairly well.

Actually I don't think they were thinking at all...and if you watched it on the AMAs they said before they came out that "this is one that you will be talking about tomorrow" like they were trying to warn the viewers lol!
