Here is a video. Ok quality
Thanks.
Her performance of the highlight part was a bit instable, but overall she did a great job, looked like a goddess.
Hmmm I thought she had lost a lot of weight, based on the pictures she posted on instagram... but she hadn't. She looks the exactly the same as when I saw her last year on February.

Not only was this her first live performance in front of a crowd in almost a year, but it was also her first performance of Fly. Hopefully we'll get more performances of Fly as time goes on.
I think she looked amazing and did a great job at the performance. Some parts were a bit off, like the belted notes towards the end, but she did a really awesome job. The band sounded pretty damn great too. I didn't really know what to expect from the performance so I didn't have any expectation of how I thought it would sound, but I enjoyed the performance.
And about the event lasting longer than what it was scheduled for, when I set it up to record on my DVR, it automatically set it up to record 60 minutes after the scheduled end (the normal is 3 minutes). So I guess my satellite TV provider knew that this kind of event would likely go way over the scheduled time slot. lol

I can't tell if it's due to the video quality, but she sounds like she's still sick. and the backing vocals are really loud.

Very strange to hear it live. Avril looks amazing, she is very pretty, can't stop listening it..... Good job! Otherwise her voice sounds a little bit powerless for me.

Ok, kill me, but I didn't like the song. At all. The second chorus sounds great, but the rest of the song... well yeah. As we get used to it, she used that weird accent. I get that she was nervous, she did not perform anything live about a year, and she's still sick... but this is a hard "perform-live" comeback-song considering the too perfect studio version (which I like)

Biotics really affects her voice
It's weird, she is less energetic than when interviewed GMA

Every so often I think I'm losing a bit of interest in Avril then she does something like this and I'm so so proud of her

She did okay. Not the most amazing performance ever, but considering it was her 'comeback' gig after being bedridden for several months and considering she's stuffed full of antibiotics, she sounded pretty good.

Lots of people already said it but I'm still just gonna say it too: Avril did sound quite ill and it wasn't her best performance but after all she's been sick for months and she's still halfway through treatment. Being sick is nothing she or anyone can influence so it's totally okay if she sounds a bit weird. I just didn't know antibiotics could affect her voice like that... poor Avril
I still think it's one of my favourite performances because it's obviously so meaningful, not only because it's for Special Olympics and in front of 90,000 (!) people (and the rest of the world) but also because it's her first performance in a year, her first performance ever since she's been diagnosed with f*ck Lyme.
I hadn't expected anything except for Avril to enjoy being back on stage and have fun. It must have been really hard for her to get back on stage after such a long struggle and I am beyond proud of her; words aren't enough to describe how proud I am! Welcome back, Avril! ♡

I wouldn't be surprised if Avril includes Fly on her next tour- after all, she has to 'cause it's a single right? But there are a lot of special needs kids that go to her concerts and it would mean a lot to them if she sang it, plus she could use it to promote her foundation more. Honestly I didn't really hear any weird accent in this performance. She sounded almost identical to the recording. If she does include it on her next tour, which will probably be at least a couple of years from now, I think she will be able to give a much better vocal. Does anyone know if she did any interviews or anything?

I actually really liked it. I'm surprised. Her voice was a bit shaky at the end but besides that I thought it was a great performance! (But the violin was pretty annoying.)

Great video/audio quality! I'm really proud of her. I wasn't expecting too much because of her illness and everything. Very good surprise!

To all of you complaining about her vocals, I don't think you realize that she didnt sing that way because she had a cold or something, it's how her voice will be/how it will be npow when she's still not strong as she were before. -Even vocals can get affected from being weak or sick. It seems some of you thought she would perform like she have always done before, and that her vocals would be 100% the same. It's not the truth. Imagine that according to Avril herself it was a BIG STEP that she even sung the whole song through at rehearsals... Singing ONE song all the way through was a big step... She has a long way to go!

Given the circumstances, I can't really complain about her performance. You can tell she vocally gave it her best and that she's still not fully better yet. She probably wasn't singing the majority of her illness and she's not gonna be back to where she was just after a few rehearsals. She did actually sound quite nice, I can't wait to hear this after she's better and back to touring because it sounds like this could be a powerful song live.
