The ‘Songwriters Hall of Fame’ ceremony brought with it a brilliant performance by the ‘Contemporary Icon’ award recipient Lady Gaga who honoured her fellow cut-creator Linda Perry.
Perry is responsible for penning the Christina Aguilera classic ‘Beautiful’ and many hits for ‘Family Portrait’ painter Pink!
Watch her in action below…

She has the same problem of Christina Aguilera, that’s “scream sing”, not singing. Nobody sings this song like Linda, nobody.
Wrong honey, she has dynamic. I dunno if you know what that is but it’s the reason why she can interpret rock records, get into her falsetto for operatic feats in the “Sound of music”, then turn around and tribute Stevie Wonder with a funk track then throw on a fur and sing a Jazz standard with Tony Bennett. You sound dumb and your statement is inaccurate. She screams because she can when she wants to give that , Christina screams because she refuses to accept that she’s an alto now and HAS TO. Big difference honey, look up dynamic and learn.
clock his ass!
Then you must have missed it when Gaga tried singing without a mic. S****** has a point, Gaga often strains outside of her range and ends up shouting. Alot of those jazz performances display that. Quite contrary, Christina has been singing much more within her natural range and has refined her technique. Although I admit I love her overing singing and melisma
@Grande Gaga is much more comfortable in her range than Ariana which is why she has the hardest time doing the most simple of things like anunciating her words. His point is invalid.
Dynamic, you mean versatility, if you can’t hear her voice almost cracking at times during this performance then you need to clean your ears.
Enunciation has nothing to do with your range or how comfortable you are in it. The only one with an invalid point here is you with that comment. Plus this has nothing to do with Ariana. I already know her strengths and weaknesses.
@S****** No Honey, I mean DYNAMIC.. The ability to make your voice soft, then harsh, then scream/growl, then bring it back to falsetto is vocal dynamic. Which can be showcased in one song, if need be. If you’re not into vocal terminology then just stick to you depressing grunge girl, cause I’m not these ignorant children on here. I read with credentials, facts and life experience.
You’re trying so hard, it’s painful, i know what dynamic is and if you think Gaga showed it here, man….
@grande anunciating your words has a lot to do with it. Again, clearly your TGJ music education has failed you. If something is a little too high or not naturally within your range it is easier to not pronounce certain syllables to help it come out. Not saying in every case but that is 100% fact. I’m not a teacher so I’m not here to give you a free education but you need to stay out of grown folks business if you’re only in 6th grade honey, I’m not here for that.
@s****** I’m trying hard but not as hard as when you just tried to incorrectly correct me with your dynamic comment. Wrong. And I’m not speaking of this performance specifically in speaking of just Gaga as a whole. As we know every performer has their good and bad performances but Miss Gaga has a vast majority of them in the good dept so i don’t see your commenting her in the Screamtina category as she has a plethora of failed attempts. I see the point you’re trying to make but it seems you’re just trying to be super-far-left negative just to be. Girl you need some díck PRONTO
Lol! You tried it with that shade. If anyone here is in the 6th grade here, it’s you who can’t carry a conversation without getting in your feels and throwing weak and stale shade. The fact that you just claimed her voice is dynamic shows you really don’t know what you’re saying. Enunciation has more to do with the mechanics of your jaw and tongue then anything else. Seeking validity online is pointless but I actually took vocal lessons, so save that weak shade. When I struggled with enunciating words correctly it was because of the way I opened my mouth, not how I approached the notes. As it is, Ariana has mispronounced words with simple notes that even Britney Spears could tackle. But again, this isn’t about Ariana. The fact that you can’t defend Gaga without bringing up Ariana says a lot. You claim to have credentials but but you’ve yet to make any valid points defending Gaga.
@ariana go do your homework girl, you only have a week or two left before school lets out for the summer so don’t slack off. I’m not being paid so there’s no point in correcting your TGJ music educated mind frame. Toddles
Lol!! Still no defense for Gagas straining? Thank you for proving my point. Deflection will only get you so far. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
@ariana no need to defend against the defenseless. You think I’m wasting my unlimited data on that? Girl.
@s****** Lady gaga has so much more control than Xtina Aguilera. Like it is not even funny. She may strain a little bit, but she does excatly what she wants with her voice. In Xtina´s case she just prays it all goes well (and not now, it´s always been like that) when she tries to hit some hurful belts (which always sound a mess live).
The Queen of Interscope!!!
Linda Perry said Pandora stream her songs 30 million times ans she only got $300. This is why the powers don’t like tidal. Tidal pay the artist more Taylor Swift just wrote and open letter to Applehttp://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/taylor-swift-apple-music-explains-804016 on why she will not be letting apply play her music
when will these other flop no substance artists like Beyoncé lmaoo
Beyoncé is on the same level, if not higher because of merit, than Gaga. Sorry babe I love Gaga’s talent but the truth is the truth!
@cough cough just dragged the sh!t outta @s****** biitch….
LG5 is snatching all wigs weaves tupees implants and so much more! hide ya favs
I’m sorry but some of those notes were strained and cringe worthy. It just sounds forced and not natural.
Coming from a Ariana stan?
We aren’t talking about dancing love, you can sit this one out.
Ariana has terrible diction and is one of the dullest and most generic artists to debut lately. Lady Gaga at least shows emotion when singing. I doubt Ariana will ever raise people´s hair like Gaga did at the oscars.
She already did last year at the American Music Awards when she performed Tattooed Heart with emotion ans received a standing ovation from everyone in the audience, including Lady Gaga. But hey, you tried.
That wasn´t hair-raising hun. She´ll never get there cause she doesn´t have it in her. As easy as that.
The girls think because they’ve watched a few YouTube videos that they know what they’re talking about. Lol giiiiiiiiirrrrrrrl
Says the one using dynamic incorrectly lol!
You CLEARLY got your music expertise from Facebook, TGJ and YouTube. When you get out of school tomorrow or when you’re on recess, look up vocal dynamics and learn something… Please.
not an Ariana Stan commenting on vocals? gurlllllll
@cough cough
you were absolutely right on your explanations about vocals.
Ladies, watching YouTube videos on your prepaid wireless phone does not make you a vocal expert.
Her voice is incredible!!! Why is Blondy and Ari stan hating?! Just so you know neither Maddona nor Ariana can hit the notes like Gaga. I’m not even a stan of Gaga but her live performances are amaizing!
She´s AMAZING.
Clearly the best among her mainstream peers.
This was why Madonna was upset. She can actually sing nbs. Ive been to her concerts and its the truth. Foh haters!!
TGJ could literally report that Gaga just overdosed and S****** would say she’s copying Amy Winehouse. He is clearly just a saggy lifeless hater. Anything she does he finds wrong in it. Even her FLAWLESS Oscar performance he found a way to hate. Ignore him. the biggest troll on here that knows NOTHING about the industry or vocal statistics. The biggest undercover Gaga fan.
I love Gaga but that performance was very pitchy. She did sound like she was screaming. She sounded the same way when singing this during her own concert.
She’s over in capital letter
Letters
Nice performance of lady gaga
True queen
