Nothint pitchy about it. Demis voice is just way brighter, and Gaga has a darker tone

Definitely pretty flat on the chorus of PC. Her pitch was good during Disease, tho.

I really wanna stan Demi so hard, because she has so much going for her, but I just can't get fully behind her idk 🥲

Kinda how I feel about Miley, tbh. Very talented, but I just feel there’s no there there.

Gaga does so many tone changes, inflections, voice things ;x - she plays with her voice in such unique way that you need to grow a pair of big hairy balls to cover her music. And we can here it there. Demi is a vocal powerhouse with huge range but it's still missing something - the gaga factor.

Gaga wrote the songs so of course she has deeper connection to them and can perform them in a way nobody else can, not fair to compare them!

Demi did good, a nice tribute and I truly appreciate it!

It was actually good. I don't understand not bringing emotions comments. It's not like Gaga is known for it. She just focuses on showing off her voice like Demi did in some songs, so...

We can’t be out here saying that Gaga isn’t known for being an emotive performer lmao. If anything, Gaga is known more for being an emotive and passionate performer than she is for having an exceptional voice.

I see the potential but the chord choice sounds off because I'm so used to the original chords I guess.

Didn’t she perform it on Howard stern???

She did?  I didn't remember lol but it was acoustic, I need Gaga to perform the album version live

I know Demi is a good singer by normal standards, but that just sounded so lightweight. She's riding around on a Honda 50. Gaga drives a Ferrari.

I'll just repeat what most people here already said, these are good covers but Gaga just brings her Gaga twist to it, and it definitely cannot be replicated

Great song choices and cool arrangement , but I'm really not a fan of her or her voice at all. She took two of the absolute best songs on Mayhem and removed all of their nuance.

All style and no substance.

When you hear covers of songs like these, you realize how much the originals bear Gaga's inimitable signature.

The only credible or interesting way to cover Gaga - as with many well-known artists or songs - is to bring an original interpretation to it, rather than attempting to copy it.
