For something in an awards show, it’s cool to see how well the song works in its pared down form. Shows that it is truly a good song. It’s like seeing an actor in a scene with no edits or special effects.
This was an amazing performance by GaGa as only she can put out there, she’s real and when I saw this at the awards the lighting and stripped down set with just the absolute amount of musicians put me in mind of her performance of Shallow with Bradley. Of course they were more glammed up that night but at the heart it was an intimate performance. Nobody does it better than this woman. I have always loved this natural look and when it’s meant to be raw she delivers every time!
This song and A Star is a Born made me wonder if she she is the next Celine Dion. Not in voice, because they are different performers, but for being hired to do cinematic songs. I am excited to see more of that from her.
