I just can't at my Mom right now. I came home from work tonight and ET was on. They were talking about Gaga's oscar performance and how great it was  :gaga:

Then my Mom goes, "I don't like how she did that [Gaga]. How she sung the same songs that Julie Andrews sang.  They made it like a competition. "

 

This is how our conversation went down:

 

Me: "What? Its a tribute to "The Sound of Music". How else would one go about tributing a musical than to sing the songs?

 

Mom: "Well they could have used scenes of Julie Andrews singing and made some type of montoge"(which they did at the beginning)

 

Me: "Watching a performance is way more entertaining though"

 

Mom: "Its like Gaga was trying to outdo Julie Andrews. What if the performance is better than the original? How is that tributing and honoring the original performer?

 

Me: "Thats how tributes always are. Somebody recreates the original for entertainment and out of respect. Its not about a competition or trying to outdo anybody. And it was a tribute to the movie not just to Julie Andrews. 

 

I don't remember how our conversation ended. My Mom is so ridiculous. She just loves to hate Gaga. But my Mom may have thought Gaga's performance was better than Julie Andrews. She wasn't really clear. She may have been talking in general about tributes being better than the originals. 

 

Sorry, Im sure nobody cares about this. I just had to vent.

 From the montage of Julie singing they deliberately left out all the songs Gaga sang so there would be no direct comparison.

I live outside the space time continuum.

Sounds like my sister, she was saying that Gaga was opening her mouth to big when she was singing, she also said, she didn't find it as spectacular as other people said it was. Maybe they just don't want to admit Gaga is a true artist.

I found my mom listening to Gaga's "Captivated" on her tablet yesterday. True story. Dunno how it happened, we didn't talk about it, but I figure it had something to do with the Oscars.
