MDevacelli 1,245 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 (edited) There’s another performance scheduled for tonight but without an interview. She’ll be there again? Film another one or they filmed two songs? No one was there? Edited October 2 by MDevacelli Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replying to anothers opinion like you did is something I cannot tolerate. You wrote things like "I feel like vomiting reading those nitpicks as if those pretentious phags don't consume music from artists who use auto-tune even for their breaths and can't barely hold a note live", which is highly aggressive, confrontative and not at all a normal statement of your own opinion. What do YOU expect to be met with, when formulating and posting such a snarky and hateful post on an online forum? You preach about different opinions, when you are the one who gets aggressive, then defensive once you are called out. Shaking my head. And why do you assume I am not genuinely happy with Gaga's performance? Trust me, it's playing non-stop, and yes, I am mature enough to acknowledge something I do not like, but not make a fuss about it. I simply stated what I hear, and moved on. Unlike someone else... So wait, I get defensive after you quote me but I don't get to rebut? It was nauseating to read those unfortunate comments, not only by you but from many other people as well. Imagine we are here celebrating then your "snark" remarks with "genuine" performances about this and that gets shoved into our face? Like what the heck were you anticipating? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how my posting, which simply expresses my honest feelings (and as far as I can tell does NOT insult others like your reply does) could be taken as "snark". If you did think that way of my posting, I do apologize as this was never my intention, and I really mean it! But to me, your reply was off putting, so I also got defensive. We are humans after all, hot headed little shits Peace! Edited October 2 by TraeumereiLPB It's hard to light a candle, easy to curse the dark instead.

PawsUpJago 1,949 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 (edited) I can't believe I rushed all the way here just to see people still having something to complain and fight about with THIS performance?? I feel like I don't even want to come back here for the eventual LG7 discourse anymore, yikes... Edited October 2 by PawsUpJago 3 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, I apologize if I also said something insulting but It was honestly disappointing that those nitpicks were popping out of nowhere like common it's abysmal I rest my case here and just stream HM 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewUsername 10,997 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 What a performance! The setting, the look, the choreo, the vocals!! Sad it's not uploaded in 1080p or 4K. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMonster 14,579 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Was a beautiful performance, no doubt, but it would've been even better if they didn't pitch correct it. The moments of vocal rawness were the best. Gaga doesn't ever need her vocals to be artificially 'improved' because stripping out the imperfections of her voice (which we all love) can never be an 'improvement'. subtext / fantasy 1 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FameMonster01 6,980 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 This is EASILY the best Gaga VOCAL performance of all time. There isn't a single performance of hers that can even come close to this perfection Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOT 2,647 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 53 minutes ago, TraeumereiLPB said: I am actually quite relieved others have mentioned it before me, but yeah, there certainly is some pitch correction going on. Even if it is still on the more subtle side, it was evident to me from the first word she sang. Now we don't know if that tuning was on the microphone already when she performed it live, or if it was added in post processing, but it is there, fact. We all know Gaga is an excellent vocalist, and she rarely ever uses pitch correction during live performances. Most of the time, like on the Chromatica Ball HBO thing, it is added in post. So, she has got nothing to prove, but still, pitch correction is the bane of every genuine live performance... so as magnificent as her vocals are, the pitch correction kills some of the emotion, as it tends to make voices sound cold and artificial. Maybe she used it deliberately as an "effect" more than correction, who knows? Anyway, great performance, fantastic vocals, whatever tuning is going on is unfortunate, but not a deal breaker! Even metal bands use pitch correction for official concert releases, and that's much more of an issue, as they often preach about the genuineness of live performances and such... So, everyone is in on it. Thanks, yeah, agree with all that (notwithstanding that I don't know anything about metal bands). This is a beautiful performance by Gaga, and she is my favourite singer of all time, but I would prefer if this was unpolished. Her performance of Hold My Hand at the Oscars drew a lot of criticism, but I loved it BECAUSE it was raw. You could hear imperfections and strains and see the effort and I thought it suited the song, and I think the same would apply to this song. Her voice these days is sensational imo. Right through Harlequin it's gorgeous, it's gorgeous on Die With A Smile, and in her last couple of Vegas runs (where I don't think there is any pitch correction or any of that stuff) I think she has been way better than for example late 2019. Anyway, this one goes on the playlists. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagzus 14,463 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 God I cried a bit watching this, her voice just sounds the best it’s ever sounded. I hope she sings this on the LG7 tour Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
