ah.
yeah....that was a pretty big mess up on Travolta's part......lol.
is there any truth that they only shortened Frozen but the other song performances were regular length?
love your avvy.............btw. Raven!!
They all have to be within a certain amount of time. She was talking on FB and Twitter about how she was rehearsing a different arraingment of the song for the AA because of the time each of the songs are given. I didn't notice with those that used instruments themselves had any problems, but I think there was a problem with those that were using the orchestra hearing through their earpiece since the orchestra was not on site. I'm sure there was just as much of a problem with the orchestra leader hearing the vocalist at his end. I'm not sure who's idea it was to have the orchestra off site, but it ended up being a pretty stupid decision. The sound from all of the vocalists was horrible at least for TV, not sure what it sounded like there.

oh, so the other vocalists sounded off too?
and, yeah, that does seem like a stupid decision to not have a live orchestra.
do they normally do that at the Oscars?
I have never seen the Oscars without the orchestra in the orchestra pit or behind the stage.
It's something fairly new they either started last year or year before. I personally don't see the purpose of it.

Robert Lopez, the songwriter who helped wrote the Frozen soundtrack including Let It Go with his wife, became a EGOT last night. It means he has won Emmy, Grammy, Tony, and now Oscar and he's only 39 years ago. It's quite an impressive achievement.
It's really not that big a deal. It's a live performance. Heck, half the most well known actors in the world stumbled over reading lines off a prompter, she can be forgiven a rough note or two.
she also got a standing ovation, right??
oh, so other performances got a standing O, too??
so they didn't stand for Idina just out of sympathy/pity??![]()

Only U2 and Idina Menzel got standing ovation for their performance.
