Gagaloo911 12,959 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 The Oscars stage has been Lady Gaga's for two years running. Last February, she essentially revitalized her career on that stage when she nailed her Sound of Music medley, earning praise from Julie Andrews herself. This year, with that monumental performance looming in the background, she still managed to shine. Gaga delivered by far the most compelling performance of the night. While most singers aim high for the huge vocal lifts, she dove low, showing off a powerful bottom register on her best original song nominee "Til It Happens to You." She accompanied herself with some stylized piano and brilliant staging, inviting dozens of sexual assault survivors to stand together on stage. It was a powerful moment — but not enough to actually take home the Oscar. That honor went to Sam Smith for his stunningly mediocre Spectre theme "Writing's on the Wall." However, when it came to moments where he actually got a change to show off his talents, he botched them. His bungled speech and lackluster performance only served to confirm one fact about last night's awards: Gaga came out on top. Everything about Gaga's performance operated on a higher level of artistry than any others that night. She had a show-stopping introduction, delivered by Vice President Joe Biden, who provided the context for her to sing a confrontational anthem about sexual assault. ... Yet after a performance so masterfully executed, Gaga's talent seems to be once again more boundless than viewers may have assumed. Her ability to create one of the night's most memorable storylines says more about her abilities as an artist than a golden statue ever could.

JevyDuty 2,961 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I am so bitter. I hate the title. She may have lost the Oscars...... there is no "but" for me. Winning an Oscar last longer than winning "a night." I prefer the win that's going into the history books. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's performance is the one being talked, and will continue to be talked about, unlike someone else's, or the Oscar win for that matter. His win will forever be tarnished with infamy.

Like saying his song as stunningly mediocre for some reason is hard. Still Diane was robbed. As I always believe, it is not the trophy that means, it is your LEGACY.
