Swan Heart 7,382 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 11 minutes ago, Kayla said: What bothers me about Lorde's tribute is how people seem to be reacting. When Gaga did hers people were livid, saying she "made it all about her!" and that she was "selfish," but Lorde got up there, had her own face on HUGE screens, and didn't have much else visually to look at to represent Bowie yet she doesn't face the same criticism. Ideally I wouldn't want EITHER of the tribute artists to face that kind of hateful criticism, but the fact that people wag their fingers at Gaga for "making the tribute all about GAGA instead of BOWIE!" when she did more to actually represent and showcase Bowie makes me want to pull my hair out. Jesus, yes.. But people will forget about it after another week. There's the Oscar performance coming too.. I personally liked both of the performances, they both represented two different things and were meant to be taken in two different ways. They say it's the last song. They don't know us, you see. It's only the last song if we let it be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also against the concept of this thread, but since it's going well and I don't want to limit people comparing/contrasting the performances civilly (keep it cute, monsters) we can let it stay open.

PopBitch 1,218 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Gaga singing in this tribute would have been the best. Her Grammys tribute started out great but somewhere along the line dissolved into cheeziness and the vocals were too low for her in some songs, and the Elvis twirls were a mess. But it was fine. She put her heart into it. Lorde was a little too mellow, but I felt her emotion. Still, I would have loved Gaga's more vibrant vocals on this. But I adored the intro and the videos of Bowie (so moving) with instrumentals of his music. But his son weighed in. I think for the family, this was more touching with the tributes by Bowie's two friends, Annie Lennox and Gary Oldman, and Bowie's band on stage playing his songs with great videos of Bowie, and then Lorde singing poignantly one song.

LUO YI 6,089 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I'm not supporting this thread but... Lorde's voice was terrible so I'll keep with Gags Gaga's tribute was a real celebration of his career so I really live this. Life On Mars is one of my favs so that's the first thing I liked from BRIT. The second was the background video. The night sky tells all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark 7,098 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 o<(0_0)>o So I just watched Lorde's David Bowie Tribute and I think Gaga was definitely better. He are the reasons why: -Gaga's innovation and creativity represented Bowie perfectly. Lorde had non of that. -Gaga showed great vocals. Lorde had bad to ok vocals -Gaga showed great Bowie energy. Lorde had none of that -Gaga seemed more like Bowie come back to life. Lorde was just a simple and cute cover. -Gaga's tribute was a remembrance and celebration. Lorde's was just a remembrance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evan Peters 10,755 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 think there's only one annoying person who thinks lorde's was better and they felt the need to make a thread that linked to their equally annoying posts about lorde doing the tribute like 4 times in a row emma roberts is an abuser Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
