That's awesome! My dad said that same thing about La Vie En Rose (we saw her sing it live on the C2C tour). Gaga really is a closer.

I agree, there really is no persuading with Gaga, she can take care of it all herself, you just have to get some people "in there". Gaga is a true talent and it shows effortlessly. She always breathes her music and that can not be denied, even if HER thing just ISN'T your thing, the woman is talented and reeks of emotion when she performs.

The future's uncertain and the end is always near.

No, Gaga is. Lyrically TIHTY its "Let me wallow in my shitty feelings and dont tell me anything nor try to help because you arent going through this" which is frankly, the worst thing any person suffering depression can do lol. But if you like that message its fine

I don't think you get the point of the lyrics.

Such an incredible performance. She is such a passionate performer and a true icon of this generation. Even her speech was heartfelt and emotional.

I literally had to remake my ggd account just to share that statement.

Or....it is "don't try to tell me how I should feel or what I did wrong or how I invited this violation....you have no idea what this feels like, unless it has happened to you!"

That's the opposite of self pity, that is standing up for yourself and your right to be angry over being violated! 

 

I believe it's really positive that you found that meaning, but it's innacurate to what the lyrics say

You tell me "it gets better, it gets better,
in time"
You say I'll pull myself together, pull it together,
"You'll be fine"

....

You tell me "hold your head up"
Hold your head up and be strong
Cause when you fall, you gotta get up
You gotta get up and move on."

The lyrics literally depict a person trying to comfort the rape victim by telling her that eventually in the future she'll be better and that said victim needs to remain strong (because as we all know giving in to depression sends you further down in the hole). No where in the lyrics it's implied the person said something in the lines of "This is how you feel", "What you did was wrong" or "You invited this violation" it's quite the opposite in fact. Regardless Gaga reacts by scream "what the hell do you know" which, while accurate, is misguided anger and ultimately the message it sends when combined with the verses is "Scream and rage to the people who are trying to help you"

I'm sorry, but those are the lyrics. It's not my fault

No, i get perfectly her intention. But ultimately the lyrics and the message she is trying to send are dissonant.

NNNNNNNNNNN :toofunny::toofunny::toofunny::toofunny::toofunny::toofunny:

that's not what she's trying to say with those lyrics....

 

You tell me "it gets better, it gets better,
in time"
You say I'll pull myself together, pull it together,
"You'll be fine"

....

You tell me "hold your head up"
Hold your head up and be strong
Cause when you fall, you gotta get up
You gotta get up and move on."

 

The person isn't trying to comfort the rape victim, they're telling them to "get over it". Basically ignore what you're feeling because life goes on and **** happens. Which is the way NOT to go about it.

 

No where in this is she saying rage at the people trying to help you.

Essentially she's saying to the people telling her to get over it  "what the **** would you know about what i'm going through".

:toofunny:

I always thought that was what the lyrics implied in a broader context related to the documentary- that the incident is belittled, or that incidents like that are overall belittle, whether or not that was the intention.

idk

3 points in and ready for more

That was the best performance of her career. 

I love that she is advocating for real industry and social change. Its long over due. And shes the one to get it done.

 

I love you Gaga

A decent performance. I'd give it a (charitable) 6/10, and that's only b/c I like her.

Gaga looked like she's been eating good. With the bloated face, double chin and puffy lips--she conjured up memories of a haggard Courtney Love walking out of Golden Buffet retaining sodium and water.

Still, overall it was a cool show.

Im sure you dont look any better girl , go relax and get your life.... go eat you some carbs.

The "best performance of her career"? In what way?

Because of the audience? The social consciousness, etc.?

I saw her several times live at clubs shows during The Fame Ball, and I would consider any of those performances to be superior to what I saw tonight (one song on piano). 

For that matter, I thought the Oscars performance was far superior to tonight.

Under what metric, thought process, qualification, etc... are you proclaiming it as the "best performance of her career"?

You can't ignore your lessons even after you become a star

The message, the relevance of the award, her exposure and position in her career. Many reasons..... perhaps maybe not the absolute best, lets definitely go with top 5.
