Watch Haley Reinhart perform a sexy, sultry rendition of “Oh My”  on Real Music Live. The new show airs on NBC after Saturday Night Live.

The tune is from the season 10 American Idol alum’s debut album, Listen Up!

In the TV market (Boston) where I live, the NBC affiliate is airing infomercials in the time slot instead. But luckily, for those of you in the same boat,  the producers of the show are uploading the entire episode to You Tube.

Watch Haley’s performance right here.  In a short interview after her performance, Haley reveals why she believes live music is so important and more.

    “..too many “too”s with her during the show or right after and now it is too less of everything to please some people.”

    True enough, iani, but I think she’s smart enough to ignore those people and do what is right for her. If there are people who like a different sort of performance art, they can follow that sort of artist. NBD. 

    Like Ricky Nelson’s “Garden Party”  - ‘you can’t please everyone so you have to please yourself.’ IMO. Of Course.

    That’s nothing but hype lol. Trying to get people to vote or tune in. If she was all that her album would have done better and she would be more recognized.

    I just don’t hear her performances being talked about, if at all, besides here.

    Curious you chose one of her watershed performances of S10 to highlight how Haley fails as a performer.  That performance made many top ten lists, she has been critically acclaimed often since the season (not only at mjs), in fact she was the ‘critic’s choice’ of the Real Music Live show this thread is about  :P

    Maybe some of your ‘critiques’ from you previous post have some validity for people who want more ‘action’ from their entertainment, but in this post, your dismissive caricaturisation, “dead wooden look in her eyes”, especially for a highlight performance of that season, one that took Haley finally from bottom 3 and propelled her to 3rd place?

    I’m sorry, but choosing that particular performance to pick on as support for your statement??  Makes it hard to take seriously….   :/

    This album?

    NYT: “(Listen Up!) is a taut album full of meaty, thickly arranged pop-soul…these songs hark back to the 1960s and ’70s, when Motown girl groups were ceding ground to soul-driven rock. It’s singers’ territory that shows off both the smooth power of Ms. Reinhart’s voice and its
    engine-revving churn.”

    LA Times: “‘Listen Up!’ is a gamble. Carefully crafted pop hits are traded in for depth…Reinhart presents a nimble voice… She can belt pure, airy pop when necessary, and she does, but funky jazz, blues and R&B dominate the disc…It works, even if it doesn’t contribute to ‘Idol’s’ commercial prowess.”

    Reminder:

    OK. We get the point. Some people like Haley, some don’t. Never the twain shall meet. Now let’s move on.

    MJ I apologise, but when critique becomes derision, it’s hard not to respond.  Thnx for posting this performance

    I think Haley has a wonderful voice and she is very talented. I just can’t quite get her and I don’t know why. I think there is more frustration on my part as to exactly knowing why I don’t. Maybe that is what some are running into, knowing  Haley is good, but not quite feeling her. I think we want to help her get better, because she is likable.

    A question–does anyone know who her management is?  Is still with 19?  Thanks.

  • fuzzywuzzy

    Haley is still listed as being managed by 19M.

    Some idols signed with major labels, including Haley, that have had talents, voices even stage presences…,maybe they have got lost into ” too much too soon” though.  I think they’ve been unprepared for the big musical scene and some to fight the idol stigma in the same time(especially the winners). There have been no transitions but  big expectations from maybe both parts, artist and label with their music and careers. They have got lost in between 19s and their label-managements or personal ones, too many people to deal with and report to. I think what they have really missed after the show are their personal assistants, somebody maybe outside of the business and family members to help them. It is very important for an artist in MO to have a personal, absolutely friend-person to kick the artist’s butt or polish her/him to the right direction. It is also important to have some support from other artists, I see lots of collaborations and support for already established artists or for new ones they want to, not so much help/support for/with the idols/ or even into idol’s “family’. It is more than “let’s work together”, it should be “let’s do it together” more, different implications and messages than 10h-work from a personal manager paid/named by the corporate-reps .

     I have said this too–she’s laid back not stiff. She just doesn’t do the all the theatrics when she sings. That’s not what she’s about. Haley is such a natural vocalist and it’s effortless for her. Great singer. I think people are used to all the drama on stage–especially from female singers. I don’t really know why that is–but it seems to be the case.

    This song would seem to fit today’s musical landscape much more that Free. Should have been her single out of the gate.

    Anyway, she is a true talent. Wishing her lots of success and will follow her career. Really wish she would do more east coast dates. Would love to see her again (saw her on idol tour)

    My previous response was deleted, although I’m not sure why since I thought I was staying on topic. If so many people are feeling her, than I guess she will be a success. I guess we will just have to wait and see where her career goes.
