Slayer 9,227 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 In my opinion, it's probably the best show she ever did. She's had better performances (like the Brit Awards and VMAs 2009), but as an overall show, I think she's never been better than she was at SwineFest. Every time I go back and watch it, I'm amazed by how well thought-out it was, how well-rehearsed it was. The performances of Aura, Swine and ARTPOP in particular are some of the best she ever did, IMO. The passion and energy are so electric and exciting. Performance-wise, Gaga was on top of her game - even though she wasn't emotionally or physically on top at the time. Some people have said that SwineFest hindered the era, that it took away the excitement and expectations, but I think it was one of the only things that this era got right. The one problem I can see is that we all inevitably compared the album versions to the SwineFest versions, and some of us weren't as impressed by the album versions (myself included, in the case of Sexxx Dreams and Swine). But it is what it is. I tend to think her live versions are better than the recorded songs 90% of the time, regardless of the fact we heard the live versions first with ARTPOP. Didn't mean to waffle on so much... but I was just interested to see what people think of SwineFest, a year later? I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!!

RAMROD 109,261 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 It was everything. Everyone love it. It was smaller scaled that her usual shows. And it was her first time on stage since injury. It was a show that everyone waiting for. Even those who just wanna know if Gaga will ever able to put a show any more after breaking a hip. And she can. It was great. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘢 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘢, 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯'𝘵 (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Blonde 6,145 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 It was a great show, the biggest mistake was that she performed only songs from ARTPOP... She ruined the surprise with the iTunes festival and the many teasers she released like ARTPOP, G.U.Y. and Mary Jane Holland also because we already knew Applause, Do What U Want and Venus. Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Heart 4,400 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Its one of my favourite Gaga performances ever. ARTPOP in particular, the way she moves and sings "GGD IS NOT FOR YOU" - Admin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howl 2 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I think it was great, because imo the show created some sort of curiosity and speculation, like 'how will sound this song on the album?'. I was totally hyped. I loved it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bebe 17,093 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I really loved it, I appreciate her more choreographed performances but it was nice to get a break from that after an entire era of tightly organised stage shows. To go from performances like these, and an incredible stage show like TBTWB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xl0N7JM3wZk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOcf-ohG27w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0ntRdqcs4M to a show like this was really refreshing. It just felt so raw and intimate. It was just wonderful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKRNGofmfGo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinladen 1,527 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 It was so good. The highlight of the era. She can do it for every album in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
