I honestly hate this. The original (Peter Gabriel ft. Kate Bush) was so much better. There was raw emotion and a sense of support emanating from the original - an integral component this song lacked. Plus, I felt that Gaga's part was overpowering; the song is about the female vocalist supporting the male vocalist - not being an attention seeker. Kate Bush sounded like a support net in the original, unlike Gaga who takes center stage. Plus, they sped it up too much...
Has everyone forgot about Midway State??? Everyone here is praising Lady Gaga for some reason... I would give more credit to Midway State for this song.
awww i love her so much!!! she inspires me everyday to be better than i was before... :) im so happy ive seen her live and i get to see her again <3 ohh what a goddess <3
OMG. When Gaga sings 'Don't give up', she really sounds like Lucie Silvas... Don't you think?! But the other time she sounds like Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera and now Lucie Silvas!:P Lady Gaga has a great voice combination!:P
"Don't give up 'cause you have friends Don't give up You're not the only one Don't give up You still have us Don't give up now We're proud of who you are Don't give up 'cause I believe there's the a place There's a place where we belong"
Gaga's voice is over-flowing with sincerity and emotion, she isnt "trying" her voice is naturally dominant, its beautiful, every word she sings its like she means it, even in other songs not just this song, really amazing i got teary listening to this, i prefere this version by faaaaaar to kate's.
anyone who thinks otherwise well your obligated to your opinion, just dont go around bashing it, dont like it fair enough..move on..
This is pretty dreadful. It's way too fast and part of the charm of the original was that it was slow and ethereal. The singers are completely overdoing it and are trying to hard, and as a result the emotion and feeling that ran rampant in the original is completely sapped. Also the musical arrangement sounds terrible.
And also you can cut that crap about "if I don't like it then don't listen to it". I make it my business when one of my favourites is covered and it ends up shit.
It's impossible for a Peter Gabriel song to become staling and old. Apart from anything else this isn't a different "interpretation", this is a great song being made artificial and terrible for a generation that treats music like processed burgers at a fast food restaurant.
This version sucks and if you don't like what I say then by all means write it in your little pink diary because I won't give a shit.
That is entirely your opinion. The sound quality is, as I feel, grainy and old. The instruments are outdated in this continually evolving music industry. It's "artifical and terrible"? Your opinion. Tons of people think otherwise. This version rocks and if you don't like what I say, or don't like how The Midway State or Lady Gaga sings it, by all means write it in your tiny little pink diary because nobody else gives a shit.
Thank you for offering up a witty retort using my own words. You obviously figured out that the only way to beat me would be to mimic me. Also I quite like the adding of the word "tiny". Makes it more effective.
I also like your phrase "The instruments are outdated", which is bullshit anyway because intruments can be played at anytime, but I would like to point out that at least there "are" instruments being used in the original. It's all made up on computers now, which sucks.
I fact most music sucks nowadays. All mainstream stuff, particularly pop like this, has no soul and I would quite frankly rather listen to my only son being murdered than listen to this. The original was "Art Pop" which doesn't exist now. Hell even some of the underground stuff isn't that good, "In Case of Fire" being an example. The best music now is the heavier stuff like metal, because it has barely changed and is lyrically and musically complex. Also people actually play "instruments".
Also if you think the sound is "grainy" and "old" I suggest you either invest in new speakers or a hearing aid, because you are most likely going deaf (After all, it's remastered now isn't it? Ahh the wonders of the technology!).
Just to finish, I don't actually wish to argue with you, but I just want you to see why people like this, and why it actually isn't so terrible after all. It's not a forceful attempt to change your opinion; You are free to think so after all; It's just me wanting you to see this song in a different light. It's just a different interpretation not everyone may like, especially fans of the old classic.
I can dig that. I guess I have to respect you since you are willing to defend your opinion tooth and nail like I am. Too many people are pussies who only like stuff because it's popular and not because it's in any way "good", which of course is another thing I hate about my generation, but I digress. You have been a worthy adversary, I'm really only into these arguements because I suffer from chronic boredom. Whatever, lets just lay down our swords and call it a draw shall we?
Yes, in fact, let's call it a double win. I, like you, actually mostly get into these arguments solely because of sheer boredom. Ah, a new hobby would be nice, but a sharpened tongue is never a bad thing, is it? :)
Of course. Keeps the mind ready for anything people throw at you. After all stupidity is like fossil fuels or sunlight, its a natural commodity. Just don't get me started on the Scissor Sisters... or the Jonas Brothers.
Have you still not realized everything you said is opinionated? It's entirely YOUR opinion, and it is NOT fact. Stop presenting it like it is. You are free to think so, but I am likewise free to think otherwise. If anything, I'd like you to watch "Lady Gaga Poker Face Acoustic", then tell me if you can repeat again half of what you said. Now go ahead. And no, it's called sarcasm and irony, not mimicry ;)
I already told you by the way, it is WHAT I FEEL, and what this rendition does is to MODERNIZE it with new instruments and a different INTERPRETATION. You may not like it, but many other people do, because they have different TASTES. If the whole world had the same opinions, it would be pretty damn boring.
Kate Bush would be spinning in her grave if she was dead ...It lacks the gentle emotion that Kate adds plus the original has a backdrop of unemployment Thatcher style ...had to translate to USA
