I'm genuinely astonished this is proving to be divisive. I thought it was spectacular and expected everyone on here to be gagged. I actually would've been less impressed by a copy-paste of the usual Abracadabra choreography. She gave us something completely different and unexpected. It's got to be one of her most artistic, televised performances ever. It was such a moment and easily her best Grammy performance for me. 

This! :heart:

I'm fine, Ta

I'm sorry mate but you are beyond clueless. 

I am so done with some of you on here who are literally incapable of recognising artistic brilliance when it’s staring you straight in the face. Seriously go off on a f*cking gap year, educate yourself and LEARN-SOME-TASTE.

 

This has gotta be one of the coolest performances Gaga has done in years! High fashion, dark chaotic Mayhem energy on a minimal set. This is quintessential Lady f*cking Gaga! Serving 80’s New Wave performances like the Eurythmics and Gary Newman, classic Glam Rock like David Bowie, visceral dark 90’s Metal and Industrial Rock like Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, and even more alternative bands like Tool. All of which don’t need choreography and backing dancers, but just stand and perform as actual music artists.

To have her, front and centre on the deck and keyboard, leading the construction of the song as an actual musician is essential to the message she was conveying that night - to celebrate the female producer. And between two music legends, Ilan Rubin (from Nine Inch Nails) and Andrew Watt,...amazing. They became a real band for that performance. 

 

Oh and that “Ikea lamp shade”... classic 2009 Alexander McQueen mate. Straight from 'The Horn of Plenty' collection. The level of art and fashion culture encapsulated in that look alone is mammoth.

 

Abracadabra may not be an Avant Garde song, but she transformed it into one with this performance. Emphasis of high fashion, alt music genres, the chaotic darkness of Industrial Rock and trippy 80's New Wave, visceral abstract performance art, the camera exploring angles of her body like a fashion photographer. Genius. I truly hope she does more stuff like this!

But you are a Gaga fan. She's been wearing and celebrating McQueen for years!

Does that mean I should immediately recognize every Alexander McQueen piece the second I see it?

Truly, do I have to understand a pineapple to eat a banana? :neyde:

Don't be a philistine mate. 

Idk if it’s really being a philistine to recognize that logistical constraints can fuel interesting artistic decisions.

I'm not sure what you want :samanthac:

I said it's a good performance and I love the technical work they did despite the fact that she's mid-tour and likely in a time crunch :samanthac:

Do I need to lick her toes to show my appreciation or can a gay just say "that was a cool performance" and move on with life :samanthac:

I've been waiting for her to do something this for such a long time. Just her voice, her eccentricity and her band.

The way she sang "the floors on fire" had my *** on fire for real 🔥 🔥 🔥

I always know when you pop out of the woodwork to praise something Gaga does, it must be GOLD :iamfair: A true GGD legend.

Girl for all I knew she was raiding dressing room trash cans for that thing :messga: 

Girl danced the runway in a hat that looked like it cost $15 dollars at a Joann's fabrics store and 45 minutes with a hot glue gun and yarn and it turned out to cost a literal million dollars

I don't know sh*t about fashion nor do I care to :messga:
