Brandy Performs ‘Long Distance’ On The Morning Show

Published: Monday 8th Dec 2008 by Sam

With this week ushering in the release of Brandy’s new LP ‘Human’, Ms. Norwood is hot on the promo trail – today stopping by CW11’s Morning Show to perform the album’s first single ‘Right Here (Departed)’ as well as the awesome follow-up ‘Long Distance’, both of which you can view below:

Long Distance

Right Here

She nailed it! I was becoming a lil’ weary of the ‘Right Here’ performances (still great though), so it was refreshing seeing her give such a stellar rendition of my current song of the moment ‘Long Distance’. Fantastic.

Randomness: Is anyone elses best part of ‘Long Distance’ the runs and adlibs at the end (“Can you hear me crying ohhhh”) LOL?

What do you think of the performances?

    Ok she strains to much when singing to be considered a diva ro next legend. Sad to Say Rihanna and Ciara arent that far behind her. Monica held a longer and stronger note then Brandy just the other day. To many stronger vocalist out there killing it now. Beyonce Fantasia Xtina Taylor Swift Leona Mariah Mary Monica Jennifer Hudson and sometimes Keyshia and even Pink. Performances were ok.

    I liked the Long Distance performance best i’m still gettin used to the live key of Right Here.

    Prefer if sung in key of the actual song..

    ^^ Brandy? Strain? LMAOOOO

    I’ve heard it all.. and you have the nerve to mention STRAINstina STRAINgulera.. Gerl, sit down.

    You have to be the only idiot who thinks Rihanna OR Ciara can hold a candle to Brandy, and I’m a Ciara fan. Brandy is inspiration and influence to many of the people you named. almost 10 years after being dubbed a Diva by Vh1 and 15 years in the game, here you come comparing her to Ciara. And you named Monica and off-KEYshia? Where is monica sis? *walks off*

    you don’t have to be a super powerhouse to be a good singer.

    anyway, i love the added percussion on “long distance”.

    Truth is…. you’re stupid! How the hell are you gonna strain on a song like Long Distance. Put simply its a soft song meant to be sung that way. Your not a singer obviously if you think, Fantasia, JHud, Beyonce, and Xtina dont strain. That’s all they do!!

    STOP THE HATE!!
    HUMAN IN STORES TOMORROW… 12/9/2008!!!

    i watched that long distance performance and she was NOT straining its her facial expressions that make it seem that way because in no way shape or form does she sound like shes straining. she did a BEAUTIFUL job on that song and now knowing who its really about is just the cutest thing ever

    i dont care what you look like when you sing its what it comes out sounding like and it never once sounded “off”….somebodys obviously deaf and it aint me

    Gettin tired of the RHD performances she has killed it more than once…And she killed it this time..this b**** is a vocal beast..

    Now with Long Distance Brandy poured her soul into this performance I really felt that

    RHD I really can't stand this song…but, she was vocally on point & miles above other performances. Glad to see her singing live
