Acapella means without music, this was taken from the studio recording. I'm about 99% sure there's still all the same affects used on it as the full song we hear on the radio.
Actually no, the effects are all gone. The version with effects have an echo and filter. This doesn't have any. AND YES GAGA WITHOUT AUTOTUNE IS PERFECT!
It's been a long time since I came around Been a long time but I'm back in town This time I'm not leaving without you You taste like whiskey when you kiss me, oh I’d give anything again to be your baby doll This time I'm not leaving without you He said, sit back down where you belong In the corner of my bar with your high heels on Sit back down on the couch where we made love the first time And you said to me Somethin', somethin' about this place Somethin', 'bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face Somethin', somethin' about my cool Nebraska guy Yeah something about, baby, you and I It's been two years since I let you go I couldn't listen to a joke or rock 'n' roll Muscle cars drove a truck right through my heart On my birthday you sang me "A Heart Of Gold" With a guitar hummin' and no clothes This time I'm not leaving without you Ooh-oh ooh-oh Sit back down where you belong In the corner of my bar with your high heels on Sit back down on the couch where we made love the first time And you said to me Somethin', somethin' about this place Somethin', 'bout lonely nights and my lipstick on your face Somethin', somethin' about my cool Nebraska guy Yeah something about, baby, you and I You and I, you, you and I You, you and I, you, you and I You and I, you, you and I Oh, yeah, I'd rather die Without you and I C'mon! Put your drinks up! We got a whole lot of money but we still pay rent 'Cause you can't buy a house in heaven There's only three men that I'mma serve my whole life It's my daddy and Nebraska and Jesus Christ Somethin', somethin' about the chase (six whole years) I'm a New York woman born to run you down Still want my lipstick all over your face Somethin', somethin' about just knowing when it's right So put your drinks up for Nebraska, For Nebraska, Nebraska, I love ya You and I, you, you and I Baby I rather die Without you and I You and I, you, you and I Nebraska, I'd rather die, Without you and I It's been a long time since I came around Been a long time but I'm back in town And this time I'm not leaving without you
This will always be one of my favorite songs by Gaga not just because it has that edge but because of the fire and that pure passion the vocals display.
This Vocal is autotuned. It's not much autotube in this track, but i can still hear it. ;) Her singing is amazing and i love her voice, but do not worry Unfortunately, no one sings absolutely perfectly in every tone. They are not much of a detuning, but they can affect the rest of the song. Autotune is simply necessary in vocals like EQ, reverb, delay and compressor ;). Sorry for my Englis ;) P.s I agree, She needs to release an album with all her songs not autotuned ;)
Is this a track extracted from a full studio production or pure solo? Sounds like it could be a studio take. This would put the lie to any presumption that studio arrangements and instrumentation, let alone autotune bullshit, enhances her performance in any way. And she composed it. A great groove and a little bit o' country thrown in. I'm really astounded at how talented she is.
It's pretty much real. Just listen to it. The breath, the vibes, the intonation. It's definitely live, and made separately. Shut up and listen! That's what songs are for!
To me that sounds like an awkward cutting together of two vocal samples. It's unnoticeable when layered of the music so it doesn't matter. There may be a tiny amount of auto tune but I actually doubt it. She has a very, very good voice and a LOT of control over it.
I actually feel like there's used some kind of vocal enhancer here, just a tiny bit. I know she has a very powerful and good voice, but nevertheless, the vocals sound here too evened out (no natural dynamics in the vocals).
Sometimes, i hear Gaga is criticized. .... WHY???? A marvellous voice, a marvellous person, so, i wanna say : "SHUT YOUR FUCK UP AND LISTEN TO THIS GEORGEOUS SONG!"
no, acapella is ANY vocal only performance or file. this is the acapella that was released probably for dj's and such when mixing her tracks with others. that being said, @Jakubox96 THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for uploading this, using it to make a hip hop beat for my new ep :)
Lady Gaga sounds great in her recordings but honestly she sounds even better live. her voice is just amazing! You know shes a real performer when she sounds even better live
I think you're correct. I think this is the original vocals which were added to the music later or whatever. I also think you can't extract the vocals to this high quality it will sound 'tinny'. This is amazing! love it!
I don't think there is such technology that would allow us to extract voice from the song so perfectly. I assume these songs were specially leaked by Gaga's managers. About word "acapella" - maybe you're right, I'm not a musician, but I don't want to change the title now, while people look for it by this word.

@OhDeerGirl In all technicality, "acapella" generally means voice only without accompaniment. It can be solo voice or many voices, so this falls in that category in a way.
