"Queen Of Me" tour - PICS & VIDEOS


The fact that she miming to Paul Michael's voice as if she was singing it on several songs is just so bad. They don't even sound that similar. It looks she forgot the words to WUD on Giddy Up on several videos I've seen. Like just use the same backing tracks that she used for the NOW tour and let's go and use the track from the album version for songs for QoM.

Now we know why the NOW Tour and Let's Go were nearly 100% lip synced. She cannot sing live consistently. I thought the performance as Tortuga was okay even though their were issues but these performances just sound so botched.

This will probably be her last tour. Maybe she'll do another Las Vegas residency and perform occasionally at award shows and music festivals but I don't think she'll be able to do a full scale tour again.

The visual and entertainment elements are great. But it’s like they neglected the vocal/sound elements. I hope they recognize the issues and fix them.

The worst performances I've seen so far are WUD and MIFLAW. The second one is embarassing. They took the album version and messed It up somehow to make It sound like she's singing live. IGGG and FAFA are not as bad as it seemed after the opening night. Maybe they fixed them for the Seattle date or the Spokane quality videos were low. Anyway, she shouldn't sing live at all. The difference is too big not to notice.

She just can't sing "Live" anymore. Period. Her singing voice is unfortunately shot even after the surgery. So just go back to the backing tracks from NOW tour and I guess purely lipsync the QOM songs. Quit playing games with the backup singers. Sounds and looks ridiculous.

The Up/Come on Over medley sounds really bad as well. Sounded much better when she did it at Tortuga.

Something is very wrong with Waiter Bring Me Water.

I respect that she wants to try to sing, but agree it would be better to lip sync. She can still put on a great show. I would like to hear from people at the show to find out how it comes across in the venue.

 Thank you!!! 

I LOVE "Inhale Exhale Air" live. Great energy.

I also love Inhale Exhale Air, one of the best songs on the album, and one of the best choices for singing live.

Waking Up Dreaming is a disaster. She even pities. Sounds like hearing an old goat or a crushed cat... The album version, the vocals are very processed and out of her singing abilities. She'd better leave it entirely to her backup singer. She probably wants to sing it live because she's in the middle of the audience and it would show if she lipsynch the song. 

She should have taken Best Friend, much easier to sing.

RE:


Just watched the full concert of that registration that was posted above and watched some other clips of the two shows so far. My findings:

Outfits 

- amazing she brought the original outfits out so far of TDIMM and MIFLAW

- love that she changes outfits during the run of the tour - not as many changes during the show as you’d expect at a Shania show (only 2 per show) 

- using wigs is a fun element for her. But the blonde wig can stay in the tour bus for me personally (it’s just not Shania for some people)

 

Setlist 

-For me the biggest improvement since her comeback in 2012: most of her tours had 90% overlap in setlist but she’s mixing things up now and brings fan favourites that weren’t performed in a while 

- good combination between new and old material 

- I miss LATGG 

Band 

- Good energy 

- Great to always have Corey at her side ❤️ 

- The backing vocalists are way too loud + not mixed well with either the live feed or prerecorded vocals 

 

Show production/design 

- the back drops and video elements fit the style that her QoM promotion has been in and look well produced 

- big fan of the light production of this show! 

- there are not many show elements. She showed during the Rock this Country Tour that dancers are not needed, but than she brought pyro’s, flames, the flying riding bull to name a few things + she had a catwalk to get into the room. During the Now Tour she flew on a guitar case. The only extra show element during this tour is the neon cart going through the audience right at the beginning. 

- The natural flow of the show is missing. There are a lot of breaks between songs (where she tells an anecdote for instance). It takes away energy of the show 

- No catwalk or b-stage: a bit of a pity 

 

Backing tracks/vocals 

- Great to have new prerecorded backing tracks for some songs. FTMO and DBS are the best re-recorded tracks in my opinion 

- A big improvement from the NOW tour is to have her singing some (complete) songs live again. Inhale/Exhale Air is also quite a crowd pleaser from what I’ve seen. 

- Very weird to have new backing tracks where she sings a very low harmony and the new backing vocal singing her parts with an autotune effect that makes you listen twice to see if it’s her voice or his. Quite noticable during WUD, IGGG, Any man of Mine, TDIMM, MIFLAW….. 

- MIFLAW is a mess: it’s a combination of backing tracks of different era’s + the ending is the cd version, which sounds tacky 😆 

 

General 

- Great to see how many shows have sold out so far! It sold better than the NOW tour in presales 

- In the past there was more audience interaction during and in between songs. Hope we’ll see more of that during this run 

 

Some less positive feedback is all meant out of love for her as a performer and producer of the show and mainly as a professional. I wish her nothing but the best, but think this production thus far is personally my least favourite since her comeback.

Really cringe that she didn't sing the second or third choruses of You're Still the One and just held the mic in her hand for the audience to sing it while occasionally singing a random "oh".

Her timing also was completely off, like she expected the song to end but it kept going.

I feel so embarrassed for her. Fans deserve better.

Also the guitar is all for show in YSTO. She is putting her fingers to play the chords but she doesn't have a capo on the guitar which means she would be playing in the wrong key. It's probably not connected to the sound system. This version is in the key of C which is the same key that she sang it in for the Let's Go shows and with Harry Styles. Notice the capo position in the pictures.

While I preferred the version she sang in Vegas in 2019, and I think there are issues with the backing track on this (she's not singing the melody during the chorus) I am SO HAPPY she is singing FAFA. It's the first time since the Up! tour that she is singing it on tour. Really wish she would have had it in the Still the One residency or RTC tour when her voice wasn't as bad. I think FAFA is one the best songs ever written by any artist.

 I’m not unhappy with the tour. I just want them to improve the sound/vocals. If that means lip syncing, that’s ok. Shania’s vocal issues aren’t her fault and she’s done everything she possibly can to improve them. So, I have no issue with lip syncing if needed. I’m going to two concerts and don’t care at all if she does (and, as of now, prefer she does). 

Shania still has the ability to sing well, but, unfortunately, it’s not consistent enough to be able to get through an entire concert.

 I also love this song. One of my favorites.

I also love When, and was pretty happy when I saw the song is part of the Medley, but I didn't like it... Apart from the "1, 2 , 3 now" the rest of the song is unrecognizable. This one they should REALLY fix!

Her voice sounds a ton better tonight. YTSO is live here, not playback.

I think she may actually be wearing a wig. It's hard to tell from the videos. Her hair, makeup and costume tonight are giving me IGGG music video vibes. I wonder if her outfit from the museum tonight will be the bodysuit from that video?

Lots of good clips of tonight's show on this Instagram story:

https://www.instagram.com/stories/wadecody/

The backing track issues where the backup singer was singing her part and she sounded like a robot on IGGG and AMOM seem to be mostly resolved! Hope it's fixed for MIFLAW.

IGGG still sounds a bit funky, but it's A LOT better. Her "live" voice tonight is really good - best it's been in a while. Not as deep sounding as the other day and she's really on pitch and doesn't sound like she's struggling for air like she does sometimes.

Way way better, Big improvement with the back-up singers. Perhaps Eja had a chat with his mother. Vancouver was absolutely improved and I believe she probably heard the negative comments well and fixed a lot of the issues. I don't think she hated the criticism but in fact listened to fans. I think the technical issues were noticed after the first and second Show and were worked out to be what I call a show going forward will hopefully continue to improve and I believe it will. Great job Shania. I wasn't ever hating but like a few of real fans glad you and your team noticed it. Love you and the crowds and packed out arena last night proved this will be a successful tour.

The backing track still sounded strange on MIFLAW but I think now you can hear Shania under Paul Michael. They have his mic too loud here and I don't know if he's supposed to be singing the same part as her. That being said, this show was much improved, and I think give it a few more shows and all the kinks will be worked out.

Definitely an improvement. The difference between live parts and playback is less obvious and she looks so much better with dark hair.

I like the change ups too, Roll Me on A river is my least favorite song on now people seem to go for beer when she plays it. I love Waiter bring me water, She's not just a pretty face is one of my favorite songs from up and I am a huge fan of Thank You baby. However I'm thinking for overseas Ka Ching will be played as it was a hit outside of North America and well is my favorite song on up besides Forever And For always and as mentioned above SNJAPF.  I'd replace Roll me on a river and sing the full version of what made you say that, I'd replace pretty liar even though I like It with you win my love. If your not in it for love I'm Outta here should have been played. Love gets me everytime I believe was her biggest hit on Country radio back in the day in terms of how long it spent at number 1 so a no brainer it should have been on the set list. Black Eyes Blue tears was an amazing song too why that was never a single was surprising back in the day. No one needs to know is another favorite of mine. I love the woman in me song as well. I ain't no quitter even though ain't her most popular is certainly another song I love.as well. Man I Feel like a woman should be the opening song and Rock this country should be the ending song.  Anyone have any ideas what songs should have been added and what songs shouldn't have been added? No disrespect to Shania just I like the interaction with everyone on here whether we agree on everything or not. Also she doesn't have much of a band like the rest of her tours I will ask this again maybe a fan who has been to the concert or Tommy might know is the band 100,% live? I question it because there aren't many band members on this tour so I'm curious as to how many of the songs are completely playback without the band. Perhaps I'm wrong just curious
