  6. queenbeyonce10 August 9, 2010

    I want a Ciara and Usher duet. It would be hot. In fact i want a Beyonce and Cici song. That would be killer! Has anyone thought about that?

  7. Tanya August 9, 2010

    Ok, I think Ciara took some vocal lessons or she is miming, cause that sounded stellar.

  8. Stephanie August 9, 2010

    0_o WOW!

  9. YUM! August 9, 2010

    I must say Ciara does sound good. Usher was amazing! They both should make a song together, A S** song lol that would be hot!

  10. BASIC INSTINCT OCT 5 2010 August 9, 2010

    That’s what I’m talking about CICI. So soothing and calm.

  11. C-error August 9, 2010

    Not even performing with Usher can make her relevant again. Next!!!

  12. BASIC INSTINCT OCT 5 2010 August 9, 2010

    I love your voice, so calm and soothing 🙂

  13. CIARADABESS August 9, 2010

    @hater Why you hating now that she singing good. SIT YO ASS DOWN!

  14. royalkev August 9, 2010

    Loved them 2 together! That was really nice.

  15. Thomaschris August 9, 2010

    I loved the way Ciara sound. I’m starting to like her voice. It’s very soothing. They should definitely do a duet.

    I’m glad Ciara is back, she’s really doing it this year.

  16. Marquis / Ciara STAN/FAN August 9, 2010

    CIARA SOUNDS GREAT!!!!!!!! and yea i thought about a ciara and beyonce working together that would be dope! as hell it would have to be uptempo and so they can kill the dance move’s lol!! with sexyness in the video!

  17. Carmello August 9, 2010

    Wow she sounds amazing! They should do a collaboration!

  18. ThomasChrisCarmello August 9, 2010

    And to that hater, wow.

  19. CIARADABESS August 9, 2010

    I been saying it since day one. Ciara has a unique voice. While it’s not a power house voice, it is acceptable and she’s growing with it. That’s why i love her!

  20. Ciara Stan 21 August 9, 2010

    Yesssss!!! Cici killed it!!! Now she can finally show those haters that she is a force to be reconded with! She can sing, dance, act, and above all think of her own music, unlike many other artists out today. GO CIARA!!!!!!!!

  21. Tavi August 9, 2010

    YESSS!! Ms. CiCi did her thing on this!! <3

  22. Emmanuel August 9, 2010

    Do ya thing Ciara

  23. DION-ISH August 9, 2010

    Imagine is one of those songs thats just extremely well written and iconic in many ways..and some say the best record ever.

    Imagine is also one of my personal favorites, and in all honesty it felt Un-Real and Un-passionate and just sooo IDK …Like she had to learn the lyrics in a day or two in able to perform it.

    But Whatever, on the bright side, A Usher and Ciara Calabo would be interesting to see, they should do that. but yea i usually dont comment on a ciara post but i love fukin love John Lennon and Usher is pretty cool….

    FYI– I Find it soo hilarious how ciara stans are getting life at 2:12 …ROFL

  24. CiaraMedlies August 9, 2010

    Get it Ciara !! AMAZING VOCALS!

  25. X,Y,”and Z” August 9, 2010

    Now, if they’d have wanted to get a “better response” from THAT particular crowd, given that particular demographic(?), and if you wanted to keep “in John Lennon mode(?),” then his “Give Peace A Chance” would have been “better suited!”:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPiJ9G7hR88

    I think the words, intent/sentiment of “imagine” just went right-over their heads!!
    (And yes, we, the United States of America is currently embroiled-in-two different wars!)

    X,Y,”and Z” — OUT …!!!

  26. DION-ISH August 9, 2010

    BAWHAHAHAHAH

    ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL

    ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    @ Ciara stans saying she has AMAZING VOCALS!! …FUKIN DEATH!!

  27. Anne August 9, 2010

    I rate it ‘not bad.’ Not great either but at least not bad. Nothing really memorable or highlighted about the performance.

  28. DION-ISH August 9, 2010

    BAWHAHAHAHAH

    ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL

    ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    @ Ciara stans saying she has AMAZING VOCALS!! …FUKIN DEATH!!!

  29. Roberto August 9, 2010

    The chemistry was great. I loved it.

  30. Nice :) August 9, 2010

    Wow that is really nice. Loved it. I agree with these people they should have a song together.

  31. Jennifer August 9, 2010

    Ciara’s vocal have improved a lot.

  32. BRITNEYFEVER August 9, 2010

    Aww how cute I LOVE CIARA and Usher. They should go out most definitely!

    BRITNEY might have a new song coming out!!!

  33. NUNYA August 9, 2010

    I know everyone dont have to have a powerful voice but its something about ciara that dont appeal to me. I like some of her songs but umm, her singing live is a BIG NO NO. I dont have a problem with Usher, he sounds good.

    And I like Tracie Spencer version of this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvG4a6h5dtc

  34. CIARADABESS August 9, 2010

    Ride is #2 on Urban BABY Almsot #1!!!

  35. Tiff August 9, 2010

    hmmm

    *shrugs*

    I see you cici.

  36. stan August 9, 2010

    lmao, it wasn’t all that. she did a decent job, but some of you made it sound like she was SANGING.

  37. Anonymous August 9, 2010

    Are we all watching the same video? I mean it wasn’t bad, but by no means was it standout either.

  38. BEYDABESS (DA REAL ONE) August 9, 2010

    Y USHER EVIN PERFORM WIT DIS FLOP?

    IZ IT N HIZ CONTRACT?

    DIDNT HE TAKE HER OFF HOTTY TOTTY TO?

    —————————————————————>

  39. CiaraMedlies August 9, 2010

    omce again AMAZING VOCALS!! it’s always good to see a hater, it means Ciara is doing something right! 🙂 *waves @ hater*

  40. Sistah Souljer August 9, 2010

    That was a good performance from both. The kids choir did well too.

  41. Sistah Souljer August 9, 2010

    Ciara generally always has better vocals when she’s not doing her usual heavily choreographed acrobatic performances. People never get a chance to see her just sing.

    She has a clear soft voice, like Janet, Madonna and Britney. Just because they dance doesn’t mean they don’t have good vocals.

  42. imo August 9, 2010

    lol, i read the comments first and everybody was saying she was great, I was excited. then I watched the video. not bad for her, but definitely not great.. really you couldnt hear neither of them clear.

  43. TheBaddestBitch August 9, 2010

    Well….she’s not a powerhouse but that’s not news!

    She got a beautiful tone though (like Janet)

  44. ~TeAM WeeZY~ August 9, 2010

    It was cool. Nothing special. Usher sounded good of course, and Ciara sounded pretty good, as well. She’s expected to at least sing on note, since she wasn’t dancing/moving. But SANG? Um, Hell NO! She can not SANG! What was so special about her singing? LMAO @ the Ciara stans thinking she was something amazing! I can’t!

  45. sure you right August 9, 2010

    usher sounded good……..

  46. CIARADABESS August 9, 2010

    Her voice doesn’t have to be powerhouse to be good. You haters are f****** sick!

    Sade is an amazing singer and she is not power house.

    Ciara’s tone is soothing and it fits her, so shut the f*** up!

  47. Lady Gaga’s Invisble Twin Marty August 9, 2010

    LOL @ people acting like this was the best performance ever. Usher sounded good, Ciara was just okay. At least her singing has gotten better.

  48. Dave August 9, 2010

    Ciara’s been taking vocal lessons for like 4-5 years or more, so @Tanya kill it. If anybody actually watched some of her better live performances when she really gets to sing “Promise”, “My Love”, “Never Ever” or her Ustreams for the last 2 months you’d see she is vocally talented when she wants to be. Ciara did great. 2:12-2:20 PUNCH CI!

  49. MUSIC LOVER August 9, 2010

    “Imagine” is not a song you oversing. Ciara’s voice fit perfectly with the song. I would love a Ciara and Usher duet. They make a s*** couple. ;D

  50. jb August 9, 2010

    Usher make her sing better she lost something but hope she get back…

  51. VA STAND UP!!! August 10, 2010

    This was pretty good. I have seen a couple of performances from Ciara where she sung live and she sounded good. She is obviously not a powerhouse vocalist (like 95%of the industry) but she can carry a tune. Plus she has great stage presence and can murder a stage. She is a true performer.

    I really wonder if the rumors of her Usher and CB going on tour are true. If so that would so damn awesome! Three incredible performers on the same tour! I don’t care about the price, it would so be worth my money!

  52. Pucci August 10, 2010

    Wow, i cant hear either one of them clearly to even make a judgment.

  53. LJ August 10, 2010

    tHIS WAS REALLY LAME. IT LACKED SOME FLAVOR. YALL ARE TRIPPIN.

  54. C-ERROR CANT SING FOR S*** August 10, 2010

    only thing c-error got going for her is her dance moves….b**** needs to stop singing…she sounds like a cat in heat….and with her hitting high notes are even worse

  55. smartee August 10, 2010

    Are we watching the same video because that was bad! You could barely hear her and her voice was low/deep as hell! She cannot sing well! What she was doing is singing really low so YOU COULD ONLY HEAR HER TONE and not her vocals, because they’re horrible. She’s doing a Janet but Janet’s voice is actually higher and a bit stronger than Ciara, and that’s not saying much because Janet can’t sing either. She WAS FLAT AS HELL! Y’all need to learn more about singing!

  56. C-ERROR STANS ARE SO IGNORNANT August 10, 2010

    nobody said that c-error had to have a POWERHOUSE voice in order to know how to sing!…so what the f*** are you dumb ass STANS talking about?!….the b**** cant sing regardless ( point blank period )…end of story

  57. truth serum. August 10, 2010

    Umm… you could hardly hear either of them and the mic gave feedback at some point. Can we get this in higher quality??

  58. remmy August 10, 2010

    For a second I thought there was something wrong with the video…I mean are we watching the same video??? You would think from the comments that she blew the house down…then people with ears started to comment and tell the truth…that’s when I realized all the other comments were stans…you should have seen the confused look on my face…lmao too funny…(no shade…she just can’t sing and we ALL know this)

  59. rob August 11, 2010

    she had her moments
