When I saw her live Tuesday night she actually started out "Dance or Die" like this, but rather than being with her two dancers, she hid in one of the VIP balconies until her part and then started singing from the balcony. It was SUCH a surprise and she was SOOOO close to me!! Also, "Faster" is my JAM!!!!!
@xSubaa There is clearly an influence here but you got your references wrong homie--- this is influenced by Manu Dibango's Soul Makossa-- which incidentally MJ ripped off for "Wanna Be Starting Something"-- Manu sued him in court and got paid--check it out.
@xSubaa whatever!!!!! they are barely similar!! you can see sum stylistic influence, but that's about it, she's very much influenced, but very original as well
I saw her live and she's great - but much of her vocals end up sounding like noise with the loudness of the band. For instance, in the beginning of this performance, everything sounds muffled. She really needs to work on that. Other than that, great song.

Great song--- she is clearly a student of music. Much appreciated.
"Faster" is my favorite song on her album. Fills me so much emotion when I listen to it.
