The Surrealist 27,470 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Perfect Illusion is my favorite song from Joanne, so I didn't like the performance of it on the first date. The instrumentals were so loud (in most of the videos), that you couldn't hear her. She messed up the pacing. And overall the outfit doesn't fit the song. I liked that she was almost completely alone on stage. Maybe she can do the acoustic version of the song if it's too challenging in this pace.

The instrumental is a killer and it's 150 times better with the live band. I am sure that for those who are being there it is one of the best moments of the show.

Bayonetta 9,844 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I just think it needed some colourful lighting. Basic lighting + walking up and down the stage didn't do it for me personally, but she did slay the vocal area. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin 24,441 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I agree. PI is my favorite Gaga song ever and I feel like the performance didn't do it justice at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardevoir 9,653 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 whaaat? PI was so dope, everything. instrumental, those turned up demonic vocals, the outfit. Perfection! Sugar, spice, and everything nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Ng 1,457 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 The performance screamed a classic rock show with smokes, crazy flashes, the band standing behind, Gaga holding the mic alone and feeling the vibe. It was perfect to me P/s: I want ha to change the outfit, though. The hand parts are so good but others need to go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtGagaPop 61,940 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 She should get a swinging mic, strangle the drummer and jump into the crowd. Recreate the music video, the song is to violent for her just to stand there like she did But Idk i thought the sound, vocals and lighting was good. The stage is amazing but it feels to empty at times. I want her to being a few more props for future dates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality 72,125 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I thought PI was fine, maybe that's just me? Also, she cannot perform it acoustic. I need PI to be performed the way it's meant to: with a lot of of energy and aggression. It's sort of sad that the best performance of the song is done acoustic, but I really need more performances of her just getting into the song and being upbeat.

AndrewGr 6,019 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 The only thing that could've been done better in my opinion is if she had the classic PI look (ponytail-crop top, e.t.c.) and a wired mic in order to do the iconic mic swing during the bridge, but I get why it's not possible.

Darkstains 153 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I'm actually wishing she would perform it with the key lowered... There hasn't been a Perfect Illusion performance yet that didn't have me fearing for her vocals. (Not that there have been many performances of that) Plus, I'm worried how she'll be doing that almost every night... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy 5,243 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 From the Periscope stream I watched, the lighting and the GA audience POV, it feels exactly like the PI video, I'd say it's a perfect recreation of the video, it's like watching the video in VR except it's reality.
