Top musical performances (Live TV)

A few that stand out for me as memorable, for various reasons:

- Whitney Houston singing The Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl

- Lady Gaga’s rendition of The Sound of Music at the Academy Awards

- Sonny and Cher reunited in the late 80’s on David Letterman’s show singing I Got You Babe
 


Any performance by Milli Vanilli, especially the MTV Club performance in 1989 was so good vocally you'd swear it was lip-synched... Oh wait, they were.

Maria Carey gave a wonderful live performance in 2016 at the Dick Clark New Year's Rockin Eve. Was it live or was it Memorex?

And how could we ever forget Roseanne Barr's infamous rendition of the Star Spangled Banner at a San Diego Padres game in 1990. Unfortunately, that one was not lip-synched.

Totally agree!! Excellent choices. I have that Letterman still recorded on VHS. I don’t have a vcr anymore and got rid of almost all tapes, but I can’t part with that one.
 
Ashlee Simpson on Saturday Night Live. ;)

Always surprised to see that Billie Jean performance brought up. I'm a big fan of MJ in those days, but that performance was 100% lip synced.

I didn’t know that, however, it’s not about the singing, it’s all about the dance moves. First time he did the moonwalk on stage.

See, to me, it should be all about the singing. Dancing was great, but as a fan of music, I feel cheated by lip syncing.

I agree, but just explaining why that particular performance (Motown 25th anniversary special) got so much attention. Michael also performed that night with his brothers in a reunion of the Jackson 5, but that was considered the start of his rise to stardom as a solo artist.
