SEANGT 4,709 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I read through the first page...did y'all forget or weren't around for the hype of this performance? It was advertised before Bowie even died as an Intel x Gaga vision of the future. At the last minute it got changed to a Bowie tribute. God knows what the original plan was since she had no new music coming out anytime soon as we now know...but yeah. The over-the-top vibe of the performance was originally supposed to be for something else entirely. You can still blame her, since at the end of the day it's her responsibility, but i'm sure there were intel contracts & stuff to follow through on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
 TeenIdle 116,809 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 It should've remained as either a performance powered by Intel or a Bowie tribute (but less theatrical imo). The combination felt forced and rushed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LetsGetHigh 52,683 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I agree. I liked the performance but the Intel stuff was just tacky and dumb and way too many songs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would've been a completely different performance. Then they chose to do the tribute and mix the two together, but it just didn't translate well at all... all the hyped 'innovations' were tacky/boring/invisible as phuck and she really looked like an impersonator (just like another user remarked a couple of posts before you). I still want to know what the original intel performance/song was Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsn 1,640 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I understand his points tbh They should have went ahead with the original performance as planned and then made room for a proper toned down tribute somewhere in the schedule.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lad-gaga 263 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I honestly think if she hadn’t made plans with intel in the first place and she was only due to perform a tribute it would have been different. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ordinarynam1310 2,453 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I agree with his criticism. The Bowie tribute was definitely one of her worst performance. It was rushed and had too many songs. She could've sang Space Oddity alone and made it great instead tbh, but like he said, every artists make mistakes. Lorde handled the tribute so well.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AddMeOnMYSPACE 1,815 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I liked it. The visuals were spectacular and I felt like gaga should of went in that direction instead. The costume felt to force, she should of just dress casual. But over all the performances was good and gaga did excellent. All these dusty rock Stans are too snobby and pretentious. Just like Bowie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fame Monster 3,361 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I think Gaga should have just performed Space Oddity. It was such an epic part of the whole performance. The way she sang it and the way her voice sounded was amazing! Find your freedom in the music Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sense8 182 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Sometimes even the greatest stars ,they need a bit of a good and constructive advice. I believe, that being surrounded by people that always praise your talent ,can do you wrong. Mark Ronson did a great job ,because he tried and managed to give cohesiveness to Gaga´s "chaotic" artistic inspirational storms. I know that Joanne it wasn´t a pop album that it was meant to have bops and radio friendly tunes, but it was a good lesson for Gaga to learn. She is not 20 years old anymore ,and she has a lot of brilliant things to do to feed her legacy. I agree with Bowie´s pianist ,but i totally Disagree with the mean reaction of Bowie´s son.   Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
misunderstood 8,736 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I’m still so confused as to why so many people don’t like the performance, I feel like I’m the only one that liked it lol.
