Did Lady Gaga and Christina Aguilera just have their Whitney Houston/ Mariah Carey moment on The Voice USA??! These two Divas are supposed to hate each other, but yet, here they are duetting together on Gaga's Do What U Want like they were super best friends!
I can't really judge the performance properly just yet- I need the shock to die down- but hearing the two Divas together does make me appreciate how similar their voices are. The whole thing could have benefited with some further rehearsal, being a little messy- vocally- in places, but I really enjoyed the staging and look of the whole thing.
Hopefully this momentous occasion- which doesn't seem to be getting as much media attention as I would have thought- will bring about a ceasefire between the duo's warring fans. Lord knows they could both do with more people buying their records.
Thoughts?
Goddesses!
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or Gaga really overpowered Xtina ? Not much, but still... btw, great performance !
ReplyDeleteI most definitely expected more from such an amazing pairing. It wasn't bad by any means but as you said, it could have benefited from more rehearsal. Did anyone else feel like they were putting on a show?Like trying to convince us that they love each other, or better yet each other...
ReplyDeleteThe main reason I love this is because it's two women who supposedly hate each other putting away their supposed massive egos and performing in front of millions. Despite it being their first time meeting, they meshed well together and the performance was pretty good.
ReplyDeleteI can't help but think this was a giant slap to Perez Hilton's face. First he tried to turn Gaga against Xtina and now he's trying to turn Xtina against Gaga. Here they are both laughing in his face in front of millions. Slay!
Nah, they're both control freaks and shady queens. They would not have done this if they weren't comfortable enough, and Xtina's speech at the end seemed genuine (something Xtina cannot and will not fake). If she doesn't like you, you will know it (see her reaction to Bieber on the show).
ReplyDeleteIm pretty sure it was an attempt at bringing enough publicity to both of them so that their albums would sell better. I wouldn't be surprised if they never associate themselves with each other again.
ReplyDeleteAgree, you can read Xtina like a book...
ReplyDeleteBoth of them strain so good together.... LOL... I liked it. Both held their own despite the laryngeal dampening on both counts, and the excessive grunting. Despite all the neck torture....It pains me to say so...I did like it.
ReplyDeleteFEEEEW....that took all my strength...I'm done for tonight...
this is probably gagas worst performance of DWUW
ReplyDeletei love what christina said about gaga after they finished the song - but i cant help but admit it was so messy
i would have prefered if they did an acoustic rendition like she did on ALAN CARR
here it was just a lot of grunting and straining
heres the acoustic version on alan carr:

lesbian lovers TBH ;)
ReplyDeleteI think it needed more grunts
ReplyDeleteIt actually showed me a more indepth comparison of the two timbres of GaGa and Christina...I never realized how heavy Christina sounded, until she sung the second verse with GaGa (I mean, yes I know Christina has a pretty weighty voice, but GaGa's sounded so light compared to Christina's, in timbre, not in power, I'd say they were on a pretty level playing field in power)..there was quite a bit of vocal flaws in the performance, but as a whole I thoroughly enjoyed it and what it presented...and ditto on the both of them needing some more sales/airplay...
ReplyDeleteI agree..Mariah is the worst today. Hell, Katy Perry could out sing Mariah live these days.
ReplyDeleteBut this sweetie...was no more lipped than there is a guy called Santa Claus living at the north pole. :-)
There's no reason for misogyny on a site that celebrates the women of pop. Get outta here.
ReplyDeleteNeither of them need either. XTina is currently #1 on iTunes and Gaga's song is shooting up on both iTunes and radio.
ReplyDeleteI like your face! Is that your face? Keep your face right there! Let me stare at it!
ReplyDeleteThis is probably the first performance of this song that I don't like
ReplyDeletei think the reason they are together is because their careers are both declining.
ReplyDeleteIts not a bad performance at all...
ReplyDeleteAs a Mariah-Whitney fan, Christina obviously has the voice between the two but we cannot deny that her voice is on a decline. She needs a surgery. However it is still better than Gaga's voice. It seems though that she didn't try to outshine Gaga. Good for her, she's not a diva after all.
ReplyDeleteAnd ARTPOP just surpassed 1 million albums sold :)
ReplyDeleteI agree, it was a grunt fest, like they were really constipated.
ReplyDeleteHe is disgusting, I wouldn't be surprised if he is molesting the baby he bought.
ReplyDeleteLoved the visuals, very Italo-disco Raffaella Carra. But between the grunting and Christina's straining...I just can't.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why on Earth so many people come out of the woodwork to discuss straining, almost as if they have their ears perked up for the slightest sign of strain of discomfort--just sitting there, perched and waiting for it. Many, many, artists have strained, including greats. Tone is what matters most to most people that are not vocal connoisseurs.
ReplyDeleteBoth girls had a few off parts, but they sounded quite good together. I was quite surprised at how resonant sounding X was in her middle, especially when she came out with "my bones hurt" that instantly cut through the music with gusto.
Gaga held her own extremely well, and aside from some obvious strain both exhibited, they were quite on with their tone choices and vocal embellishments. Quite a good show, and I very much enjoyed seeing my two favorite current pop vocalists show the world how it's done.
You've obviously misunderstood my comment. I mean between Gaga and Christina. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI knew this would happen. I mean gaga actually sang this song doing her best Christina impression. The straining, the big voice -- it's all Christina. But am glad that finally she admitted that Christina is her ultimate vocal idol. All is well that ends well.
ReplyDeleteThe reason is because if you heard somebody with an amazing voice - not even an excellent voice, I mean that sort of 'HOLY FUCKING CHRIST-BALLS, DID THAT VOICE COME FROM A PIECE OF GOD'S LARYNX?! WHAT IS THIS?!' voice that Christina has naturally, wouldn't you be pissed of that she flaunted how much she's damaging her voice?
ReplyDeleteoh... everything makes sense now :)
ReplyDeleteSorry, my slow moment.
ReplyDeleteI think she can but someone from her management or friends will tell her she sounds so bad especially LIVE.
ReplyDeleteThere are number of performances though this year that she did pretty well like the I Love Rock and Roll and Say Something on The Voice and the AMA performance. But the rest, you can feel she can't hold a note anymore and there's a tension on her voice and that it was damaged.
I would go as far as saying this decline happened over the last 2 years. In 2011, she can still hold a note like when she performed Under Pressure by Queen, she hold that long and strong note and on AMA Moves Like Jagger.
I believe the drinking cause this, also her weight affected her breathing. I don't know. I still have hopes she can turn things around. If she'll get rid of her ego. She's way more talented that Beyonce, Gaga, Katy, Taylor, Arianna and Adele combined but she's just too lazy.
Her grit is forced. Not natural like Christina. Obviously she's reductive.
ReplyDelete*should tell her
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, do you seriously think that both Whitney and Mariah couldn't kick Christina's sorry ass any day of the week in their primes? Hell, even after - that James Brown tribute was a complete MESS - her voice sounded coarse, distorted, and just awful. At least James Brown knew when in the song to reel it in a little and THEN let loose, this was just her going nuts with her melismas and bad placements.
ReplyDeleteI hope (Whitney) and Mariah can do this. If they can, get back to me.
ReplyDeleteReally? Mariah in 1992-1996: pick literally any performance she did in those years and I can guarantee better musicianship, tonal placement, support, sound, range, and connection to the melody than Christina's James Brown tribute. When Christina sings in her natural voice and doesn't fake her tone, THEN I can see the musician.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with what you said, Mariah was really good during those years. However, she wouldn't be able to nail a James Brown song like Christina did here. Her voice was made for ballads not powerful and soulful songs like this Man's World by James Brown. We are talking about POWER here not the perfect tonal thing or whatever.
ReplyDeletei didn't mean vocally!! Lol. I meant as in two divas who were reported to have rivalry duetting together.
ReplyDeleteReally? I doubt that - loudness doesn't have the same power frequency as a trained singer, it's just loud.
ReplyDeleteIt was studied that a trained singer will be able to project over an orchestra by supporting and resonating correctly, and singing into this 'band' of I THINK it was 4000-6000 Hz, which will show up. There's a link I can give you that will describe it better if you like.
For that reason, a trained singer (like Beyonce) could overpower Christina without a single issue because her voice isn't loud, it's powerful, and therefore practically SLICES through any other sound around her. At that point, it's quite literally the physics of sound, and that study I believe was made because people couldn't believe how a Wagner soprano could sing over an orchestra of 90 even with vocal cords the size of Everest.
I hope you study music first. Even Herbie praised Christina. She's loud but that's her natural voice. To compare her to Beyonce is like comparing 1st world to a third world country.
ReplyDeleteBeyonce kept her (not so good) voice by lipping.
Christina can't even overpower a small upright piano and you think she could overpower a trained voice? Screaming is not power, it's just screaming.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, what? Just because a singer is praised doesn't make them terribly good, especially when it's praise from people who are not Classically trained, ie, the ones who actually studied the mechanics and physics of the human voice.
ReplyDeleteMy voice teachers have all said that Christina has a beautiful voice, but strains it ridiculously.
Conversely, Beyonce's voice is worked to the point of perfection. There aren't any huge gaps in the voice where the chest and the head voice aren't melding, no screams unless she's being silly in concert. When she sings, her voice RINGS (pardon the rhyme), because the harmonics are all present because she's resonating correctly.
Christina's voice doesn't ring because she doesn't place it or support it correctly. That's the real difference between 'loud' and 'powerful'. When a singer uses power, the harmonics above the voice physically become more present, and therefore cut over all other sound.
And her voice ISN'T NATURALLY LOUD. If that were true, she wouldn't crack on easy notes like C5 while Mariah, who is a decade older and has had nodes since she was 8 can still belt clear E5s.
Baby, you must be going deaf. That performance of "I love rock and roll" was full of choked and off key notes.
ReplyDeleteIf Beyonce can sing Ain't No Way (Grammy style) then come back to me.
ReplyDeleteScreaming is not power, true. But sometimes, POWER is mistaken as screaming. If one don't have a proper knowledge about music and only learned it by himself then he'll messed up with his assessment.
Gaga was grunting, not truly straining. She hit an upper middle belting and it was cleaner than anything Christina has done in 10 years.
ReplyDeleteBeyonce can sing 'Freakum Dress', and she doesn't always need to lip her F#5s while barely dancing.
ReplyDeleteYou think the arts should revolve around the uneducated masses? LMAO
ReplyDeleteTone is entirely subjective, some think Christina's voice is the most beautiful in the world, I think she sounds like a transsexual being brutally murdered most of the time, and there's even an effeminate male singer who sounds just like her (Josh Strickland) but with cleaner high notes, which - again - transsexual vibes.
And I might not be alone on my distaste, because if she were so universally loved she would have outsold Britney by now.
First of all, "grit" in a voice is NEVER natural, it is a product of poor vocal hygiene. Usually those with "grit" are either smokers, alcoholics, have acid reflex or eating disorders.
ReplyDeleteChristina fakes having a "big" voice by pushing her larynx down and tilting it forward, the Kermit the frog placement. Male opera singers also sing with a larynx low, but neutrally low and comfortable with open throat and high soft palate, not choked and tight as she does. And her voice is not huge in volume, it becomes incredibly distorted and colorless as it gets louder instead of blooming in beauty and color the way a true larger voice would.
And you think you're educated about the music? ROTFL. Haters masquerading as music critic like u should realize that you're on minority. And posting these hate and invalid criticisms won't convince people. THAT GIRL CAN SING better than your Beyonce.
ReplyDeleteActually, yes, I am educated about music :) I just graduated with a masters degree in music :) and I bet if I asked you to name all the notes in any given key other than C major, off the top of your head, you wouldn't be able to without looking at wikipedia :)
ReplyDeleteCan Christina support a note as low a C3 with resonance without using a close up microphone as Beyonce did in her acapella of "Halo" in Africa? No, she can't.
Can Christina sing a song that continues to climb its key higher and higher, encompassing a melodic range (not interpolated or optional notes, but actually written as part of the melody) from E3 to Bb5 with total ease as Beyonce does in "Love on top"? No, she can't - She herself has said how difficult that song is.
Can Christina sing operatic, fully supported and resonant soprano high C's the way Beyonce does in "Flawless" and "Bow Down"? No, she can't - She sings in the thinnest falsetto imaginable.
Can Christina sing coloratura runs crossing the three registers, up to high C, with precise intonation and perfect agility that rivals any operatic coloratura mezzo-soprano the way Beyonce does in "I Care"? No, she can't.
Can Christina sing a phrase that spans more than 2 octaves, from F3 to G5 in a single breathe the way Beyonce does in "Party"? No, she can't.
If she could do any of those vocal feats, she would have done them by now :)
The performance was intended to be campy and messy. The vocals were awesome, none of them overshadowed the other one and both of them looked very good. It was truly the biggest pop event of the year. Two supposed "rivals" performing together and being friendly on stage. Stan wars are so stupid and this performance just proved how the endless "wars" between fans were dumb. Britney's fans are certainly pressed though because they thought Gaga would work with Britney whose career is in danger.
ReplyDeleteI was incredibly entertained by this performance. This is what I would expect out of Gaga and XTina. Patchy vocals (naturally...duh!) but I can't over how cheesy, charming and camp this whole this was. It just worked! Gaga and XTina complemented each other so much. And XTina (sorry, her name is too long to write) was quite nice to Gaga, you can tell. And Gaga seemed humbled and so polite, I haven't seen her like that a lot of times.
ReplyDeleteAs a listener and audience wanting to be entertained, I'd pay to see something like this over boring, yawn-inducing 'oh-so-technically-purrrfect', generic sounding singers like Ariana Grande.
btw, where is the post about Celine's performances? She had two!
Omg we are so lucky! Musician with a master degree spends his valuable time on music blog about pop girls to educate us instead of making his career happen:((
ReplyDeletePS.I guess you are not too familiar with Christina's discography.
I think this is my fav too - Gaga at a piano is always stunning! Her acoustic "Applause" is also AH-MAZING!!!!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjLuAS8HYm8
I don't care about technicalities. Christina is not one of them. Can she hit Love on Top? Oh God, she can. If Beyonce can sing Man's World without lipping then talk to me again.
ReplyDeleteDeclining? Gaga's ARTPOP went to No.1 even if it didn't have a big an impact as her previous albums and although Christina's has declined since her heyday it was in fact her added name and voice to the song Say Something that helped get into the Top 5 whereas before the song and the band were completely unheard of by the general public. Both are still bona fide superstars (and I say that as a non-Gaga fan) even with "declining" careers.
ReplyDeleteThis was certainly interesting - both the performance and those outfits, and it was good overall, but not amazing and I am not going to fangirl over the fact that this happened (although I was shocked). Gaga proved (to me, anyway) that she is obviously very much influenced by Xtina and her vocals, particularly on this song - a lot of people thought it was Xtina or said it reminded them of an Xtina song when they first heard it, and that those are reasonable things to say. Vocals weren't perfect by either but they weren't bad - Gaga obviously employed Xtina's trademark use of throaty singing and grunting/growling and she just came across as a second-rate Xtina in my opinion. A duet between Xtina and Celine Dion would have been far more interesting and up my street though.
ReplyDeletePS: Believe it or not, I am not one of those Xtina fans who dislike Gaga for an alleged beef they had, but because though Gaga is talented and has some good songs, I find her annoyed and over-hyped.
LOL....no.
ReplyDeleteYep, he even tweeted Gaga saying he hopes they perform "Swine". I'm not sure if that's a dig at either or both of them though, since I'm not familiar with that song, but the tweet certainly seemed to be full of bitchiness and sarcasm.
ReplyDeleteMaybe for Gaga but I think the boat for Lotus to boost sales sailed a year ago… Lol
ReplyDeleteSorry - I hear MJ in Gaga's vocal...not Xtina. Gaga isn't forcing down her larynx to make that "grunt" (which isn't a technique Xtina invented btw).
ReplyDeleteI'm not quite sure if she drinks and parties as much now though? There are reports that her slimmed down body is due to a healthier diet and lifestyle and more fitness which surely helps the whole body, including the voice. She has shown glimpses of improvement in her voice this year and I think she is certainly aware of proper techniques and how to use them, but just chooses not to use them most of the time, at least in live performances.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm sorry, I have to disagree and I 'like' Christina. Both Whitney Houston & Mariah Carey "can do this" and much better with a more apparent, healthier and natural, technique.
ReplyDeleteTHESE ARE WHAT YOU CALL "SOULFUL PERFORMANCES".
Exhibit A: 'Whitney Houston - I Am Changing' -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0AMzXCoDRc
Exhibit B: 'Mariah Carey - If It's Over' -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65pzEJqTir0
While I agree Whitney and Mariah >>> Xtina, that James Brown tribute was a good performance (just not vocally) - I did honestly feel the emotional connection to both the song and Brown when she "sang". It's probably one of my favourite performances of her that was vocally bad.
ReplyDeleteThat I can completely agree with. Christina's emotional connection to her material is undeniable. I just wish she would think about how she was presenting it before doing so.
ReplyDeleteI really don't think her reaction to Bieber showed she disliked him (there was the fact that just before he came up to her she had lost one of her contestants on the show which I believe she had to send home) - her reactions to Tony Lucca on the other hand...
ReplyDeleteI'm curious...
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think about this "singer's" voice? Albeit, the extreme rasp and coarseness is a reaction towards years of alcohol abuse. But, nonetheless...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhvBP8wcDhE
But you're talking about her "fake" tone, what are your thoughts on her real tone? And again Josh Strickland's voice is reminiscent of her fake voice, not her real one.
ReplyDeleteMJ? She sounds nothing like MJ who has a far more agile and lighter voice than Gaga. While Gaga may not be forcing her larynx down she still sounds very much like Xtina and her vocal stylings - especially at the beginning - scream (pardon the pun) Xtina in that they were showy and seemed to be completely random. I know she isn't the first artist to do that but she is certainly the most popular around today who does it.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to think so...
ReplyDeleteAccording to reports, she did say that she had given the 'alcohol' a rest, a couple of years ago, because of her pregnancy and need to follow a healthier lifestyle as a means to set a good example for her child but there is no doubt in my mind that she is, or may be, drinking again. I don't think she was ever a 'severe alcoholic', per say, but she has stated on many occasions that she loves Whiskey and that is, by and large, the most dangerous kind of alcohol there is, for a vocalist anyway.
The vocal delivery is MJ, not Xtina. Agreed her voice type doesn't match his...but even Xtina sounded odd trying to deliver the vocal the way it was delivered by Gaga on the studio recording.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Gaga might not have Xtina's overall range, but at least at this stage in the game she is a better technical singer than Xtina's ever was.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, their are times that their voices sound similar... people have been saying that since Gaga came out. Personally I think that is more a function of their ACTUAL vocal cords and not any overt aping. Even when going through the registers on a 'clean" vocal (like Capitvated) Stefani's tone gives off an Xtina vibe at some points....
ReplyDeleteUmmm, Gaga just had a no.1 album and Xtina has a song at no. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 that's also no. 1 on iTunes . . .
ReplyDeleteLOOOOOOOOOOOOL.
ReplyDeleteDo you feel happy now that you got that of chest? Do you feel happy that you've told us about your precious degree in music? Bitch, KILL YO' DAMN SELF. LMAO.
Instead of trying to make your FLOP career happen, you're instead wasting time trolling a music blog, and youtube, to inform us about female singers who are, and always will be, more successful than your hating ass. Typical ass hater. Oh, the irony. Where is your record contract or acclaimed live performances? Have a seat bum b*tch. LMAO.
The man is a delusional ass hater!!! LOOOL.
ReplyDeleteYou're comparing Beyonce (who lip syncs almost all of her performances) to Christina Aguilera - widely regarded as having the greatest voice of recent generations and sings live nearly 100% of the time, regardless of if she's sick, etc? Really? There is nothing special about Beyonce's tone. There are dozens other who can sound just like her, or better. Same can't be said about Christina. Sorry. Doesn't matter how many degrees in music you have - you have a bad ear.
ReplyDeleteWhy are you commenting on everyone's posts? GTFO. You hate Christina - we get it. GTFOOOOOO!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I have ever heard anyone claim Beyonce has a more powerful voice than Christina Aguilera, lol. I'm in shock. Speechless!
ReplyDeleteRight? Beyonce does not have anything special for a voice.
ReplyDeleteThat's because she lips her entire performance. Are you actually trying to claim Beyonce sings live in most of her performances?!
ReplyDeleteI can't.
Christina held back - you can tell. It's Gaga's song/performance.
ReplyDeleteJosh Strickland's song in which he sounds like her, to a modest degree, is not nearly as identifiable as X's tone. It is noticeably different, as well as noticeably altered in studio, as he sounds quite different live.
ReplyDeleteChristina uses an improper technique to get a bigger sound on her high notes, most likely because her influences have far grittier voices than she herself does natrually. For example, heroin, or any opiate for that matter, is extremely drying to the vocal cords--hence with Etta had some of that trademark rasp.
However, she has demonstrated good pitch insofar as she knows where the pitch should lie. That does not always translate into real world, seeing as that would then require technique. Even perfect-pitch Mariah falls off--but the difference between them and Katy is that they are aware of it and normally rebound after an off note.
I don't see why you are so obsessed with a woman who can definitely sing while people like Katy Perry and Britney Spears have abounded for so long.
Just deal. No one really cares. You are so prolific in your hatred for this bitch.
I can't help but think this is in part because all of America saw you try to imitate her with ill success. But perhaps, like Josh, you can use your studio magic that you've gleaned over the years to your benefit,
*sighs* Do I REALLY have to go into harmonics? Again? Lemme dumb it down - good singers have strong harmonics in their sound that make their voices powerful because they resonate and project. A bad vocalist will either strain or not resonate, thereby reducing their voice to either 'quiet' or 'loud' instead of 'soft' and 'powerful'. Christina is not a powerful singer, I'm sorry. It's physiology and science. Beyonce doesn't even technically have the most powerful voice in the world, because she's a lyric coloratura mezzo, but she does have a much more powerful voice than Christina because SOME power is more than NONE.
ReplyDeleteYou also use modest pitch shifting in your recordings, which many have told you sound lifeless. There's an unnatural switch inbetween your notes. You are using more than a 0 ms delay and possibly snapping to pitch. It's no secret.
ReplyDeleteSis, you are not the only educated person here. Many people here are singers, work with music in some form, or are quite intellectually capable of learning such in quite short time.
The cockiness is just appalling at times.
I had no idea how blind Christina stans could be until I read this bitter comment. People aren't born with a loud voice, the way Christina projects her voice is unhealthy and horrid to behold. To put Christina in the same league as Beyonce is like comparing Rebecca Black to Whitney Houston.
ReplyDeleteThere's a reason one of them has been demoted to a backup singer for Pitbull songs.
Then you agree with me? Both are declining "Gaga's ARTPOP went to No.1 even if it didn't have a big an impact as her previous albums" this sentence of yours tells that Gaga is indeed declining. "Christina's has declined since her heyday" you said it yourself. and it's not just xtina but also "The Voice" who really helped the song. if Xtina wasn't in the voice im not quite sure if it will be a hit. and i still think they are still a star but going through the phase when the brightness is dimming and only time knows whether it will be bright again or be just a stardust
ReplyDeleteI don't believe alcohol has a permanent effect on the voice like smoking does.
ReplyDeleteMost alcohol damage, from what I know, comes from the dehydration of the vocal cords, as the vocal cords as most membranous tissues are the last to be hydrated.
I think, of all drugs, alcohol might have a temporary effect. Smoking, however, singes and burns.
Her damage is most likely from her overuse of high notes that were improperly placed, which is no secret. Rather than to fix them, she seems content with incorporating the damage into her sound. She likes the rasp, but wants to occasionally pop off a D-F5, which is the quandary.
because you're sentence construction is awkward and confusing. you said "As a Mariah-Whitney fan, Christina obviously has the voice between the two" anyone will probably misunderstand that
ReplyDeleteI remember 2009 when she did Glastonbury and another fesitval her voice cracked trying to hit eb5 but now adays she hitting even higher notes, so those F# notes may get more comfortable for her.
ReplyDeletehahahahahaahaha Another one Celine plays for a fool! Keep on believing her, pal. LOL!
ReplyDeleteSurely :)
ReplyDeleteGaga vocals are always evolving. She still needs to stop smoking/drinking too much, P!nk vocals evolved a lot after she stopped smoking.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XILMjNPbh_I#t=184
ReplyDeletewhats the note she hits around 3:01-3:03???
D5
ReplyDeleteAnd we KNOW that she can do more, due to her live vocals (at least 3.5 - going towards 4). I honestly thinks she writes her songs to cover notes that she can sing repeatedly without overtaxing her voice. That's why she can do 100 shows in a row and still sound good on stage. Other singers push themselves to their limits in the studio, and then can't deliver the goods live. Unlike them, Gaga thinks about the PERFORMANCE while writing her songs.
ReplyDeleteDIVA - PLEASE UPDATE GAGA'S RANGE!!!!!!
At the most, I say Lady Gaga has a possible range of A2-D6 give or take a semitone or two, but so far she's only shown A#2-F#5-(A#5). She has been improving. Most mezzos can sing well between the A4-E5 region and Gaga has show some nice notes there, particularly in manicure and sex dreams the C#5s are great.
ReplyDeleteIs that a harmonized C3 at 0:44?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIewtRS3f8g
Low note 3:26
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIowGEl0Mzc
I just found this note on muppets special.
ReplyDeletehttp://youtu.be/gEuVVLcG4Og
Any thoughts?
https://soundcloud.com/spyros-alejandro/lady-gaga-marry-the-night those belts ! wish she would sing it like this live !
ReplyDeleteAcapellas of Artpop http://www60.zippyshare.com/v/84161682/file.html I can hear so many low harmonies, sounds like there is a B2 in Mary Jane Holland harmonized, someone should listen to all these ....
ReplyDeleteDuring what part do you hear B2?
ReplyDelete0:27 one is amazing :)
ReplyDeleteCiao everyone.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm currently searching videos from the fame monster era and I saw some youtube comments regarding a F#5 (some say F5) head note done in Teeth.
Anyone here already has heard this note? I saw a lot of teeth performances and I didn't found any head note, I really doubt that it exists.
Never heard it :(
ReplyDeleteChorus, not sure, i am not very good at this...
ReplyDelete6.47 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-76HSgHghx8 hope its the one you want :)
ReplyDeleteThe clip of Water and a flame is not lipped!
ReplyDeleteWoah nice find \o/
ReplyDeleteActually the note is a tad higher lol, it's a G5.
Thanks pal :)
Hey Lee where's your studio vocal range video?
ReplyDeleteI can't find it :/
shes the best lip syncer ever!!!
ReplyDelete
