The journey and growth that she has shown recently is amazing. I was aware of her "performances" when the friends of my son's (now 25 and 29) were in middle and high school, back in the Monster Mother era... I recognized the strength of her voice, but her music wasn't for my generation... She now has truly become a singer for all ages. She has the ability to show strength and vulnerability at the same time. A "perfect" copy of this song wouldn't have evoked the tears I felt... And in the days of lip synched big performances at important events, there is no way anyone can think that for this. I heard this with you for the first time just now, and the rain inside my truck was almost as strong as the rain on the windshield (were having a last winter blast as I type).
I've been a fan of hers since I first saw her perform on So You Think You Can Dance. She's so amazingly talented. The vulnerable side of her is on open display here. Love it ❤
I have seen this before and found it incredibly moving. Lady Gaga is amazingly talented, period. This meant something to her. Yes, it is live and it is the Grammy’s, so no pressure there. 😉 But singing while emotional is challenging! A performance like this one is more memorable for its authenticity. It saddens me that so many are quick to judge and miss the treasure. Thank you for sharing this one, and your insights, Jennifer. ❤
I actually think the raw and slight "off pitch" was actually intended kinda as an effect to really express grief, pain and emotions.. however also to point out she wasn't meant to be performing either.. this was a last minute performance with like no prep. she couldn't perform this year cause shes full time onset filming the joker 2. she ended up agreeing last minute and was literally seen busy filming onset just before the performance. but im glad she did I really loved the performance
It is a fundamental truth that live performance is just different from what happens in the studio or the rehearsal room. Too many people think that there is - or should be - no difference between the way the two sound. It’s nonsense. When you’re live, there aren’t second (or eighth) takes, or Autotune, or production techniques that can hide some of the blemishes that our voices naturally can produce for a variety of reasons. I enjoy her earlier more produced work. But this is just on another level. The emotional impact of her performance, imperfections and all, is very very moving, and does nothing but increase my respect for her as an artist. Music is about feeling and expression, and this performance has that, without question.
Jennifer! Here somewhat on time today. Oh this is a surprise! Love me some Lady Gaga! Wow this is quite different though. Love the vulnerability. Makes you want to give her a hug doesn't it? Lots of raw emotion in this performance. LOL, 17:51 "it feels very much like a jam session, and they've just invited the Oscars to watch." 🤣 You nearly caught me with a mouthful of tea again. But yeah this was an amazing performance because it came from her heart. Amazing reaction and analysis as always Jennifer. 😊
I honestly think that her voice is already set in a crazy jazz mode of singing for Joker 2 esp that she is a method actress but she needed to revisit her edgy rock tone, we never know whats inside her head, notice her facial reactions on the red carpet she is still in character as Haley or Harleen. Nevertheless, wonderful artist!
Hi jen u must check morissette recent performance with david foster concert its a must 🤯 she perform never enough shes wearing blackdress and bodyguard medley wearing pink deess i strongly recommend the day 2 performance she SAAAAAANG!❤❤
Amazing how ppl want to analyze and critique someone like Lady Gaga without having a Legendary career equal to, or greater then she has had. Borderline hypocritical.
Perfect technique is for machines. Perfect artistry is the commitment to communicating.

Exactly!! Performing is a lot more than ‘getting the notes right’! So powerful 😊
It was the Oscars, not the Grammies

That smile she makes at 10:52 just fills my soul with joy. She's just totally in her element and you can tell it.
I prefer this version to the original, it’s so real and personal ❤ She has great vocals ❤
Ive seen the movie god knows how many times, listened to music score, brought the track. But i love this performance so much more 🙂

Just to add here gaga had spent the whole day recording for the joker movie before going to the Oscars so her voice was probably tired as well.

I was wondering if you are going to React to Ren - Hi Ren?
Amazing how ppl want to analyze and critique someone like Lady Gaga without having a

Let's see cover by novia, flashlight -jessy j..
Are u commenting Lady Gaga?
Vanny vabiola _ helo ......you must check miss
I’d love to to be able to hear the song more than 7 seconds before you start talking
It's not like she didn't say right up front that she would be pausing and talking a lot. 🙄
Great news, you can! Simply search for her VEVO placement of the performance, which is published without analysis. Good luck.
