Anyway, why is she wearing headphones?

I just don't get it, the instrumental is playing live next to her, what else does she have to listen to?

possibly a click track.

Her voice to make sure she's singing well enough..

 

Tbh I don't think this video was filmed during recording because she's moving her mouth away from the mic way too much. It would sound really weird  :confused:

 

She projects well enough not to need to be near it. Did you see her C2C performance in brussels? At some points the mic was near her waist!

Different people like to hear different things when they are singing / recording. She may have some instruments higher or lower in the mix. It's just a matter of choice. I notice Tony Bennett never wears headphones so that's the way he likes it

She listening to a monitor mix that includes her own voice.

possibly a click track.

No chance. A click track wrecks Jazz feel.

It's nice, but tbh the shot at 3:45 killed it for me, wasn't this one already in another C2C video?

Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride

I don't like this song very much : I'd rather liked a studio video for Nature Boy or Cheek to Cheek

i'm not questioning the authenticity of her feeling emotional, everything is just so painfully exaggerated for the camera 

 

Because Gaga is not known to cry at the smallest gush of wind :flop:

 

 

Anyway I love this song, it's so tender. 

 

Do I dare to say tho that she looks like she had a few Jameson before recording this song

:gum:

It's unfortunate, but I have to agree. It all looks so fake.. I'm not saying Gaga's emotions are fake, because the song is really sad, but the way those emotions were portayed and the way the video is cut is not right. It's actually painful to watch. Other than that, the song is really beautiful. 

I agree with this. She seems too aware of the camera and therefore her actions come off as slightly forced to me. Plus the track and video aren't in sync at all (it looks like they took footage from a different recording of the same song), which looks very odd and makes it hard to connect with the video properly.

I don't think the musical recording was a one-taker?

They probably did it a couple of times and all of it was filmed. So the final video-edit is a combo of different 'performances' of the same song. The only thing I don't like about the edit is the small thing where the painting of the garden is on Gaga's sheets of music, but you see Tony put it there towards the end of the video. But as an editor I know how tricky it can be to keep consistancy.

According to Gaga I'm a ****ing rad bitch
