I usually like all of her performances but this was just boring.

It's certainly not her best but it's not bad.

I love Alejandro though and hope it's a big hit. It's at #16 in the US at the moment and should go higher now she's performed on American Idol.

The complete version is a little better. She sings more of Bad Romance and theres no sloppy editing

American Idol edited it way tooo much! the unedited version is less choppy and she genuinely shows emotion as well as having longer on the piano and more dancing. I actually loved it but this one makes it seem rushed and messy!

If course you'd say that - you hate Gaga and everything she does Anyway the studio version is better

I agree with one of those Youtube comments - she needs to lighten up and stop taking herself so seriously all the time

Well, I like this performance alot. I find it hard to be wowed by Gaga because in my opinion she will never top the VMA's, and I don't think anybody will in my opinion.

The complete version sounds much, i was thinking alright that there was lines missing or something in the first one.

Must say Alejandro sounds much better live! (similar to Papparazzi in that regard imo)

And i agree you TylerTango, that VMA performance is gonna be a hard one to top.. have watched it so many times.


PS. The Gaga haters are so predictable! Can't satisfy them!

For goodness sake everyone has different tastes and should be allowed to express them.
I love Lady Gaga but even I have to admit this is weak. Worst song on the album if you ask me.

God, compare it to last years AI performance of 'Poker Face' and you can see how different things are now. Last year she looked much healthier, more energy and much better singles. This year she's brought out 'Telephone' (which, regardless of it's #1 is still kinda a flop considering how hyped up it was all over the world) which wasn't very good and now 'Alejandro' which is probably the dullest track on the album. She's lost a bit of sparkle, imo. She needs a long break or else she's just going to end up in the hospital or else will continue to give sloppy performances like the one in the OP.

Poker Face and Just Dance were fantastic, Telephone and Alejandro are not. Her videos are getting better but I don't think her songs are having the same effect as they did, which is probably because people are getting fed up of her.

This wasn't her best performance by far but it was still good.

Plus the dancing was fantastic. I can't wait for Alejandro to be released.

That's fine, I've got no problems with people voicing opinions but pointless hateful comments that aren't constructive or helpful are a bit of bore as they are constantly being said. My other posts show I accept peoples opinions but not when they're pointless! personally I think the extended version is amazing and shows she's still got artistc fire!

Telephone, a flop really?! It got to number one, where else can it go?! the video is still number one on itunes! It was written about in newspapers and online! How else could it have been bigger! and your opinion but sloppy! this performanc might not be to your taste but its got good dancing, good vocals and so sloppy seems like the wrong word! and her music is still having an effect, I mean she was never going to have the Poker Face success for a second year because shes no longer new, but all her new songs have got to number one and show that people are still liking her. Shes going to be sparkling for years to come!

#1 here in the UK, yes. But it's now falling down the charts. It was nowhere near as big as Poker Face, Just Dance or even Bad Romance. Considering the amount of hype it got (you're even admitting that it was written about in newspapers and online), the fact it only went to #1 for two weeks with the LOWEST #1 SALES OF THE YEAR and has since fallen down the charts i'd say it was a bit of a let down. Before it was released alot of people were predicting it'd be massive worldwide, yet even in America it only went to #3 and fell out of the top ten a few weeks later and now everyone is focusing on 'Alejandro' right now when 'Telephone' was just released last month!

and your opinion but sloppy! this performanc might not be to your taste but its got good dancing, good vocals and so sloppy seems like the wrong word!
Sorry but it wasn't a great performance. The dancing is fine and the vocals aren't awful however it wasn't very energetic nor as exciting as her last AI performance was.


and her music is still having an effect, I mean she was never going to have the Poker Face success for a second year because shes no longer new
If she had released more great songs then yes, she would have been getting the same success as last year. IMO, her latest work is a huge step down from last year.

but all her new songs have got to number one and show that people are still liking her. Shes going to be sparkling for years to come
I'm not denying people like her. She's insanely popular and is a megastar all over the world and is charting in the top ten in tons of countries. I'm just saying, though, that she NEEDS a break. She needs to relax and put some weight on and become more healthy then she needs to spend time on another quality album like The Fame and return with a massive single next year or something. She's working herself too much and it's equaling rushed albums and poor live performances now.

I think she sounds really good.

Even though she's got a backing track, you can still hear her live voice, and I think it's gotten better since her early performances.

Go GaGa!

But stop being a major douche in interviews :sleep:

Oh yeah, I remember that performance. It was very good, wasn't it? I personally think Kanye's little "Beyonce is the best singer of all time!" performance was better though

Telephone was nowhere near a flop :yawn:.

Poker Face,Just Dance,Bad Romance and Telephone have all been fantastic #1 singles.

Alejandro will be the next one. It is doing well in the US I tunes and Is #2 in the Irish I tunes chart.

I hope Dance in The Dark will be a 4th single. That definitely deserves #1.

Have you forgotten about Bad Romance? That was arguably just as good and successful as Poker Face - if not better
