NO DOUBT, THIS WOMAN IS INDEED ONE OF POP MUSIC'S BIGGEST TREASURE RIGHT AFTER MADONNA. A TRUE AND REAL ARTIST AND I AM SO GLAD THAT SHE CAME IN AT THE VERY RIGHT TIME. SHE'S WHAT MUSIC INDUSTRY NEEDS. NOT JUST A ONE HIT WONDER. SHE WILL DEFINITELY STAY HERE FOR GOOD. KUDOS TO YOU GAGA. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH YOU INFLUENCE A LOT OF YOUNG PEOPLE THESE DAYS. PLEASE STAY GROUNDED. DONT MIND YOUR HATERS. JUST KEEP EM COMING. STAY FOCUSED AND CONTINUE LOVING WHAT YOU DOING. KISSES!
Great performance!!! and anyone who says it's inappropriate is nuts. Nothing is inappropriate about it! She wrote it for her grandpa who died and it's an amazing song! people are gonna hate because she sees the world in a different way than you do?? At least she's not afraid to think outside of the box and realizes people have their differences and should be accepted for them! Thank you GaGa for being who you are ♥
Clarence Clemons' last legendary performance. Really loved it at the time, and like some others felt it may revive the great sax sound in pop/rock music. Rip Big Man.
te amo lady gaga lejos lo mejor del mundo tu no tienes competencia tu si que escribes musica y muy buena musica eres la diva del pop judas es genial me encanta el video y ahora con the edge of glory estoy feliz te amo gaga
this is soooooooooo amazing and beautiful i wish she won idol this year because i could care less about scotty lady gaga is sooooooooo sweet and she is my idol
love her big rich subtly and dramatically spirited soulful voice, the cry in her voice... it;s just, i dnt kno... I love her style, she's not attacking anyone, just being eccentric and amazing
I have to admit, I kind of watch her performances just to see Mark Kanemura from SYTYCD dance. He's absolutely incredible and brilliant! I'm so happy he's like basically her lead male dancer. Love him! :)
@Albolu De acuerdo, además que el álbum de ella es un álbum con un alto contenido de sonidos agradables no es plano tiene muchas variaciones mezclando diferentes géneros y el resultado salta a la vista
Grow up people. I see the same thing on all those dance shows. Lady Gaga is brilliant, and this is coming from a lifelong rocker and metalhead, whose iPhone is filled with all rock. You don't have to like her music, but you can appreciate her genius and amazing talent. My favorite Gaga song! Rock on Gaga!!
@YankeesRock4eva Bon Jovi, Dreamtheater, Aerosmith, Michael Jackson, Kiss, Iron Maiden, Opeth, Judas Priest, AC/DC, Muse, Radiohead, Queen, The Beatles, Bruce Springsteen, John Mayer... All of those are among my favourite artists of all times. You don't know a thing about me or my musical preferences. I LOVE Lady Gaga. And, whatever you may think, she's one of the best (if not THE best) artists of the new generation. And I say it from a deep knowing of music and music genders. NOW that's music.
@JohnnyWeatherfield We will see where she is three years from now. I think you will be surprised. And FYI, she was broke in the middle of her last tour. She has money now, though I'm sure she will make a dent on her pocket again for the next tour. She pays for everything with her own money, or at least she did last time. Maybe now someone will sponsor her tour... By the way, she doesn't dance like MJ, are you serious? O_o How can you compare them? And I'm telling you, she's NOT a bimbo at all.
@YankeesRock4eva No, I'm not answering because I wasn't talking about her being better than anyone (though I think she is). I was talking about THIS performance, not comparing it to any other. I was making a political statement also. And you started talking nonsense about another artist I hadn't even mentioned. Since this song is about the last minute on Earth before dying, you tell me how she should have ended it. The performance wasn't disturbing AT ALL. Again, get over it.
This was AWESOME! Normally, American Idol sucks out loud, but GaGa makes it watchable. Also, it's LADY FREAKIN' GaGa! Of course her performance is going to be odd, sexual & dramatic. I know we're becoming "One nation under idiocy", but please stop being so naive. The producers knew what they were doing when they asked her to be on the show. If you're a "concerned parent", fine. You know who Lady GaGa is. So if a bare midriff makes you and your sheltered kids cry, then change the channel. Oh,
Oh... My... GAWSH! At first I was like, BOOOOOOORING. And in the middle I was like,WTF all the way? Then the end, OMG, artistry! It is the edge of glory.COOOOOL!
@rushmanzero She says "It isn't hell if everyone knows my name tonight" and she's saying that if her grandpa went to heavan, than earth is as close as she'll get to hell and if people knows how hard she works, and that she loves Jesus, it will all have been worth it! She said this in an interview, she's not referring to the actual hell.
@TheFashionista27 - She wasn't committing suicide, she was performing 'simulated sex' during her 'performance' of a totally inappropriate song on Prime Time (read Family time) national Television...
who did that noise in 2:23? its completely out of rhythm, made gaga confused of her line too.. the saxophone is not clear too. the set is also too dark.. but gaga is still awesome.. love the voice and the choreography with the guy, but she should made it the acoustic way.. britney should be jealous right now..
@HooHooDilly17 but the show is supposed to be family friendly??? yea of course you can just change the channel if you dont like a show but to put sexual themes and suicidal themes into a performance on American Idol is a little bit over the top! The show is intended to be seen by a younger audience. just bc you're a fan of Gaga doesn't mean EVERYONE knows who she is and what her stage performance is like. If manson walked out and started ripping up bibles, would that be ok? you KNOW who he is.
This was AMAZING!!!! Great Job Gaga!!! She can SANG! and dance as well! I Loved this performance! BUT the guy with the SAX did really BAD! Ohh well but gaga did amazing! :)
@TheFashionista27 Actually the people who are most to blame are the producers of the show. They know who Lady GaGa is and what she does. When she was mentoring the contestants they had to blur her shoes because the heels were penises. They should have either set boundaries for GaGa or adequately warned parents because American Idol caters to a young audience, particularly this season where the two most hyped contestants were teenagers.
I dont understand why everyone is angry at Gaga. Don't u think u should blame the producers for putting her on a "family friendly" show? These are what all her performances r like... She didn't decide to undress cos she was on Idol, just to annoy and scandalise parents!!
I was afraid to watch this song's performance. It´s a pretty song and I was afraid it were lost because of the costumes and the weird make up. But i liked it. she is so talented!
@HooHooDilly17 Yes, it is Lady Gaga. She is still just as ridiculous as she always has been. This "performance" just happens to be on a FAMILY oriented TV show during prime time, NOT on late night TV on a channel that you expect R rated or X rated music videos or music performances... The Simulated Sex was way over the top and outright ridiculous.
@dannykjackson Actually, he didn't choose to leave the room, my mother made him. You really think an 11-year-old would miss a lady dancing skankily around in lingerie?
I was shaking my head during the "Guy Groping While Recorded Background Gaga Sang" .. this girl doesn't have to do all of this Broadway Act schtick. She can sing..Beyonce was by far the best of the night. Sorry.
@TarantulaCandy [...] THAT IS performance art. Something Madonna never did, something Gaga has nailed. So it's YOU know doesn't know what you're talking about. And, obviously, since Madonna sadly hasn't done anything important lately, it's Gaga who's overshadowing Madonna. What a sad, sad comment you wrote...
@FarewellBlackSwan You're forgetting that this is a show that families are supposed to be able to watch this together. You're calling my family fucked up just because we don't want my brother to see halfway porn when he's 11? Wow. Look who's talking.
@TarantulaCandy No, I'm not 10. What about you? Because your petulant answer is kind of childish. FYI, I grew up listening to Madonna because of my oldest cousin. And I love her. But what she does is NOT performance art. Madonna never put Broadway, plus avant-garde film, plus cabaret, plus burlesque, plus vaudeville, plus fashion and art installations, plus a show in four acts with script and dialogue on a pop arena stage. [...]
idiotic people -.- she's not commiting suicide o simulating sex... Please,just search the mening of the song first and then you can comment!! Gaga is the most beatiful artist I have ever seen, I had ever had so much respect for a pop artist like her...
@yankeesrock4eva It wasnt disgusting lustful sex, it was portrayed more as love. And the suicide was tasteful, and in my opinion beautiful. If you can't interpret or appreciate visual art, don't try to criticize it. There's no point,for you know nothing about what you are talking about. And you can't deny that she sounded good. No need to be rude. As a music artist, she's above average, but not my favorite. As a vocal artist, she is great and only keeps improving, though,again, not my favorite
@YankeesRock4eva WIF?!? o.O Where the hell did she tell people it's ok to commit suicide? This is an artistic interpretation on how the last moments of your life are. The moments where you live your life to the fullest and think about how great your life was. It was inspired by her grandfathers death and how he spent his last moments with his wife and feeling like a champion in life. I think any mature human being can figure out the rest themselves.
people know what to expect when this woman is on the stage.... why not focus some of that disdain towards to people that wanted her to perform for that poor 6 yr old ..and why not be upset at the judges for giving it a standing O ? lol --- good showing Gaga, great song
Dude, you people need to chill out about her body. "omg why is she undressing" and "omg my mom thought this was a FAMILY show". Chill out. It's called 'sex' and it's beautiful. Maybe you should grow up a little
@Allpau808 not haters. just simply calling it for what it is..Mediocre at best...this is way better than the Madonna Rip off Express Yourself though. funny though the loli lux ripp off (Judas) was probably her best release so far from this album and yet it flopped so badly...
@YankeesRock4eva: you say she's arrogant and you seem so full of yourself in your response... Lady GaGa is what people need: an entertainer who's amazing and loves her fans. the sex represented love, back when sex only happened (for the most part) when two people loved each other the jumping meant going over the edge...listen to the song's chorus, lol to others: where has Madonna been lately? yeah she was amazing, but she's basically passed her legacy on to gaga...she even approves of what gaga
@Albolu Madonna is better by far, how old are you like 10? Madonna's trademark (the one gaga copies) is Performance act. the fact that you fail to acknowledge this shows how either A) you have no idea what you're talking about or B) find Madonna's overshadowing of gaga so threatening you refuse to accept the a known fact. either way it takes away any Credibility Gaga fans have. MADONNA WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER THAN GAGA...that's what you need to accept.
I agree with some of you...it was great, she was great, but the touching and kiss at the end? Not appropriate on something advertised as a "family friendly" show.
NO DOUBT, THIS WOMAN IS INDEED ONE OF POP MUSIC'S BIGGEST TREASURE RIGHT AFTER MADONNA. A TRUE AND REAL ARTIST AND I AM SO GLAD THAT SHE CAME IN AT THE VERY RIGHT TIME. SHE'S WHAT MUSIC INDUSTRY NEEDS. NOT JUST A ONE HIT WONDER. SHE WILL DEFINITELY STAY HERE FOR GOOD. KUDOS TO YOU GAGA. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH YOU INFLUENCE A LOT OF YOUNG PEOPLE THESE DAYS. PLEASE STAY GROUNDED. DONT MIND YOUR HATERS. JUST KEEP EM COMING. STAY FOCUSED AND CONTINUE LOVING WHAT YOU DOING. KISSES!
That performance was brilliant bravo ! Bravo ! She can song live very well .. Love u gaga keep doing what u doing ur unique n I love u for that.
Her vocals are amazing! Oh Gaga u are a true performer
Great performance!!! and anyone who says it's inappropriate is nuts. Nothing is inappropriate about it! She wrote it for her grandpa who died and it's an amazing song! people are gonna hate because she sees the world in a different way than you do?? At least she's not afraid to think outside of the box and realizes people have their differences and should be accepted for them! Thank you GaGa for being who you are ♥
AMAZING
I Loved the final.! Was beautiful.! Both falling.! I loved.

Clarence Clemons' last legendary performance. Really loved it at the time, and like some others felt it may revive the great sax sound in pop/rock music. Rip Big Man.

Woot woot! Shes amazing!
I have to admit, I kind of watch her performances just to see Mark Kanemura from SYTYCD dance. He's absolutely incredible and brilliant! I'm so happy he's like basically her lead male dancer. Love him! :)
she surely is good at performance!
love how she jumps off the edge coz it totally show what the song means in my opinion.
Greatest performer alive! :D
OMFG I LOVE THE END!
finally a new song from her that doesnt suck..
@Albolu De acuerdo, además que el álbum de ella es un álbum con un alto contenido de sonidos agradables no es plano tiene muchas variaciones mezclando diferentes géneros y el resultado salta a la vista
I hate how everyone bashes her ! I love her she's amazing .... Anyone who disagrees ..well I just dare you to write a song this good!
Jumping off the edge at the end .. Epic. Amazing performance as usual. Expect the unexpected but expect to be amazed! ("")("")
Yaaaaaay gaga
Love! me gusto mucho el videoo! canta genial! ;D
@CyberserveATX Thank You!! Finally someone who can see whats going on here, I'm tired of people defending her being on this KID FRIENDLY SHOW!!
Wow, this was amazing.
Love when they fell off the edge.
And I totally love the random Harry Potter spot.
Grow up people. I see the same thing on all those dance shows. Lady Gaga is brilliant, and this is coming from a lifelong rocker and metalhead, whose iPhone is filled with all rock. You don't have to like her music, but you can appreciate her genius and amazing talent. My favorite Gaga song! Rock on Gaga!!
lady gaga is actually good when performing live.
LA AMO, OK ?,
WOW EPIC
That was cool
insane
oh j.lo, don't hesitate to give her a standing ovation.
@YankeesRock4eva Bon Jovi, Dreamtheater, Aerosmith, Michael Jackson, Kiss, Iron Maiden, Opeth, Judas Priest, AC/DC, Muse, Radiohead, Queen, The Beatles, Bruce Springsteen, John Mayer...

That was Mark Kanemura with her :-) Love him!

Well i don't think this was her best live performance but she's naturally really good and the falling part made me go all ._. rofl great job gaga!
@JohnnyWeatherfield We will see where she is three years from now. I think you will be surprised. And FYI, she was broke in the middle of her last tour.

By the way, she doesn't dance like MJ, are you serious? O_o How can you compare them?
And I'm telling you, she's NOT a bimbo at all.
foi tudo
@MegaPeace7 What's inappropriate? Please, elaborate.
i am worried about her voice :(
yay!! that was Mark from SYTYCD!!!!
@badwolf509
How am I a loser, exactly? Please elaborate.
@swallowedtothesea this should and will make a dent... love it
Me gusta (:
People just hate....TEOG is an amazing song.
@MegaPeace7 Why?
@YankeesRock4eva No, I'm not answering because I wasn't talking about her being better than anyone (though I think she is). I was talking about THIS performance, not comparing it to any other.

Mark Kanemura is soooo CUTE!!!!!
@rushmanzero Actually I think it's "who gives a hell if everybody knows my name tonight"....that's what i heard O_O
the end :D WOW !
This was AWESOME! Normally, American Idol sucks out loud, but GaGa makes it watchable.

Oh,
The way I see it...if ya got haters....then you're going something right.
Oh... My... GAWSH! At first I was like, BOOOOOOORING. And in the middle I was like,WTF all the way? Then the end, OMG, artistry! It is the edge of glory.COOOOOL!
Woah at 2:35 she got off beat for a sec but she's great she came right Bak from it!
@rushmanzero She says "It isn't hell if everyone knows my name tonight" and she's saying that if her grandpa went to heavan, than earth is as close as she'll get to hell and if people knows how hard she works, and that she loves Jesus, it will all have been worth it! She said this in an interview, she's not referring to the actual hell.
That's Mark from So You Think You Can Dance!
@becbec20101992 i don't see the inappropriate anyway...britney used to do more inappropriate things when she used to performed in her early days :S
@BrandonMay01 she never dies
@TheFashionista27 - She wasn't committing suicide, she was performing 'simulated sex' during her 'performance' of a totally inappropriate song on Prime Time (read Family time) national Television...
who did that noise in 2:23? its completely out of rhythm, made gaga confused of her line too.. the saxophone is not clear too. the set is also too dark.. but gaga is still awesome.. love the voice and the choreography with the guy, but she should made it the acoustic way.. britney should be jealous right now..
I think she really did do it with the dude who came to the edge of glory with her.

she sounded tired, but she still has a great singing voice.

@smoothmoves97 yeah id feel so awkward watching this in the same room as my parents, she's a good singer, she's doesn't need to be so vulger
Amazing live singer just wished there would've been space for dancing on the rock thing
RIP Clarence
I was afraid to watch this song's performance. It´s a pretty song and I was afraid it were lost because of the costumes and the weird make up. But i liked it. she is so talented!

I was shaking my head during the "Guy Groping While Recorded Background Gaga Sang" .. this girl doesn't have to do all of this Broadway Act schtick. She can sing..Beyonce was by far the best of the night. Sorry.
The best part of this was The Harry Potter commercial! I wish that was a REAL edge she jumped off of.
