HOT-FLOOR VOCAL: Lauryn Hill, “Could You Be Loved”
In this rare documentation of a live hot-floor vocal, we see Lauryn Hill grow visibly more distressed as the performance continues and actually look downward several times toward the end of the song. She has figured out too late that the circular “rug” beneath her is, in fact, a heating element.
