NERVES.

Answer 5

it is due to the failure of concentration. keep your eyes close for maximum time during the performances andvisualizee your lyric in the mind like a open texton thee paper.don'tt feel nervous always think u r doing the best.

Answer 6

There could be dozens of reasons why it happened, including sometimes things like this just happen.  From my experience as a performer and teacher I find that things like this tend to happen when confidence levels are not what they should be.  If your concerned about certain phrases that are coming up you can lose your focus on what your doing.  However, if your well prepared your confidence is way up and nerves way down.  the more you perform the better you get at dealing with nerves and using that energy to your advantage.  Keep on keeping on!

Answer 7

Nerves.

Or Murphy's Law...

Take your pick.
