Which performance do you like better, "Imagine" from today or 2009?

I think today's performance is miles better than the first one. She had this weird tiredness/heaviness in her voice during most parts from the 2009 cover. I honestly never really liked it very much.

2009 in every aspect.

[HausOfNena 1,712]

2009 tbh. 

[Swan Heart 7,382]

The 2009 one doesn't even come close.. 

[Alien Tulip 12,428]

Imagine 2009 is way better in my opinion. The current imagine cover is decent but I'm honestly not a fan of the over the top high notes every few keys. I liked the high notes during the oscars but this performance just wasn't my taste.

I think her vocals and work on the piano were stronger today, but personally I feel that more softspoken vocals match the song better. I'd still love for her to perform the song true to the original.

The overall look she sported and grandeur of this set-up make me prefer the most recent one in the end.

despite the 2009 performance being good, i truthfully stand by the performance she did today.
it is obvious her voice has matured and has become a lot stronger.
her interpretation bought me to tears and i haven't stopped listening to it.

so proud of you Gaga <3

2009 is better. I cringed a few times in todays performance.

[GawdGa 1,399]

the 2009 one is more gaga

Both were great but 2009's feels a bit more nostalgic so that for me  

[Staryu 6,162]

2015 by far

[My Little Phoney 658]

Today's is, from a vocal point of view, infinitely better than the 2009 one.
