G U C C I 5,154 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 I love their friendship so much. Tony seems like such a gentle soul and he truly believes so much in Gaga's talent and ambition! I have heard the song LFS by Ella Fitzgerald several times but never truly paid attention to the lyrics until watching this video this morning at work. I found a really cool article about it and what a stir it caused in the 1930's. Here is the link if anyone else is interested: https://www.nycitycenter.org/About/Blog/2017/love-for-sale/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She looked like a pretty schoolgirl, which was entirely wrong for this kind of song. She was totally unsuitable for such a number….The critics attacked ‘Love for Sale’ so much that Cole Porter left for Paris in a rage three days after the show opened. So they realized they had to replace her.” I never thought there were these connotations. I always thought that it was just a character "selling" love because she had so much of them to share.

Shipper 12,765 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 This is so touching cause Tony just passed on his torch to Gaga and this is so beautiful. I can see Gaga doing the same all the way to her 90s collaborating with new artists and releasing jazz albums. The beautiful chemistry and cycle of artistry continues and is passed on and jazz remains alive and relevant. 💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol older jazz can be quite naughty and even have lyrics or messages that can be considered pretty salacious even today for some people. I just never paid close enough attention to this song in particular because it was never a favorite. But others like I Need A Little Sugar In My Bowl or Shave'em Dry are an interesting listen given the time period they were recorded in!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy 10,359 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 V nice but I also wish she’d stop talking about jazz like it’s this hemmoraghing genre when it’s super vibrant and alive rn. Even singing covers is not a dead thing. It just reads as super out of touch to the scene she proclaims to love so much *especially* as most of the pioneering jazz artists right now are people of color. Idk it just rubs me the wrong way and isn’t really even necessary to say when you could just say that last part about keeping it alive singing it your whole career or whatever.

NewUsername 10,337 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 If this doesn't warm your heart, then I don't know what will I'm so excited for the album and the documentary and specials etc. I muted this video when they were singing to not get spoilt yet though :p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re being very cynical, she just means that jazz is something that should be universally treasured instead of being dismissed by pop, rock, rap and dance music stans.
