Radio 1 Live Lounge - Lady GaGa - Viva La Vida

[kirstenoldham]

you can't not like Gaga ! gosh.

[jennyd126]

she is such a highly talented person, its just ashame it's overshadowed by her ridiculous behaviour!!!

[totally0511]

lol its a fun version of viva la vida kkkk

[Spy22Anda]

Yes. She's talented. Unquestionable. :)

[celticemily21]

gotta love gaga x proper good artist and i see many comments about how shes a drag queen, or a ugly twat but she is an inspiration to all people out there, be who you are, "you were born this way" and i think all people out there should belive that and who the fuck cares if you dont fit the mould you are an individual, and dont eva forget that xxx luv ur individuality gaga =)

[SweetCyanide412]

better than the original.

[HumanPietBox]

Sounds like she's in pain...



[AmmyxM]

Wow this is soo good, she made it her own.

[heartsthatbleed87]

She is awful and needs to be ended.

[jordan8afc]

cringing at "oh, o ah ah oh" x1000

[BubblyBethie]

I wish she'd do less "oh oh"-ing. It gets kind of tedious.

[iOllieGeorge]

Why am i only hearing this 3 years later?! It's amazing!

[toFEEminded]

@iOllieGeorge haha now you can say 3 years later...like 2 days ago it was only 2 years^^

[bellahowly]

be your chris and i'll be your gwyneth ahaha

[LoserAnthemSweetBaby]

This is the weirdest and best thing I've ever heard.

[rodrigosalasja]

LONG LIVE THE QUEEN !!!!

[rodrigosalasja]

SHE IS THE QUEEN <3

[jimene89]

This is gaga's funniest video. lol.

[123coining123]

F'CK ME! Lady gaga has real talent?! Why am I only aware of this now? Oh yeah, auto tuners, calligraphers, fashion artists, and PR/media stunts, f'cking fame whore. It's our fault she needed all of that sh't to get noticed. Have fun dwelling on that nugget comment readers

[maffei42]

woahhhh, at the start I thought it was going to be shit, because noone can compete with Coldplay, i dont even like Lady GaGa really .. but this was so good!

[penelopeofjesus]

her voice is amazing!

[ImAWhaleArooooo]

Why is this not on 'The Best of Radio 1 Live Lounge'? Along with 30STM's Bad Romance? Fuck it, I'm downloading it all.

[xemilyeesAliasx]

people need to see the other side of lady gaga, not just the poker face.

she is actually a really talented artist who has a real voice and can play musical instruments, shes not just a barbie who songs auto tuned dance stuff to get famous, thats just how she came into music, but now people should see her true side

[xsingsthesorrow]

1:58 is my favourite part, 'h-h-h-h-honest'

[roxchix14]

at least shes not a fucking barbie that cant actually play an instrument or sing ....seriously good improv, i think she actually amazing despite how much shes slandered !

[Braderli]

NO ONE can deny she has talent! She is an amazing singer and pianist. She did not kill this song AT ALL!

[MrBlackrapist]

ad suck her cock!!!!

[farcry2isthebest]

i have to say she has ruined this song

[Alexdurrant7]

@farcry2isthebest It can't have been that good a song in the first place if it can be ruined by a single cover.

[minesdecarli]

she is good!

[Rivalhopeso]

lol i know it's pretty random but i was playing as altair vs crusaders in AC when i heard this.... this sounds a bit jolly for that though. lmao...

[jrdesigncompany]

Lady Gaga is immense, the best musician of our time!

[LoreleiHM]

I didn't even know that her talent was so big...

[GablesHorse]

BRILLIANT!!!

[sarahholic]

what an artist... jeez talent at its best. 'nuff said.

[aldooraffs]

gaga get them oot

[mikey12O]

i like this hat lol

[carlosjtown]

does she have a probelm with words?????? every song she makes starts with either oh or ah..or ma

[RoundishBubble]

lady gaga has just killed a really good song!

[MsTroller12]

she is so good she can even sing that amazing live!!

[MissEllisHinch]

Omg, this is unbelieveable! Ive got so much love for the MOTHER MONSTER! <3 

[nicola1c1992]

Amazing cover, great piano playing aswell and i loved what she did with some of the lyrics too :) when she added chris and gwyneth etc, even if there were a few slip ups, she made up for it :)

[callinewman1997]

she's perfect.

[Sniffysmyboy]

Wish she'd do more singing and less drag queen stuff...

[mutahtz]

@Sniffysmyboy what drag queen sits at a piano and writes and sings ballads..?

[Sniffysmyboy]

@mutahtz obviously Lady Gaga

[MrDavee1992]

@Sniffysmyboy a drag queen is a man that dresses as a women, lady gaga is a women that dresses like a women. Go back to school

[Sniffysmyboy]

@MrDavee1992 It's a saying, actually. Lady Gaga dresses up to get attention, trying to distract people from her voice. If she let people see her real beauty, rather than hide behind a mask of a 'drag queen' then she might get more respect. When I look at her, I see someone who is insecure, so she dresses wacky to draw attention away from her appearance, as such. Music is about talent, not appearance. That's what I was trying to say.

[arvindknight]

@Sniffysmyboy not really a big fan, but i got to admit shes got the talent to back up her eccentricities :)

[Sniffysmyboy]

@arvindknight Exactly why I said that. With her 'eccentricities' she takes away the attention from her voice, if you know what I mean :S

[Gin4tonic]

its a shame that they cull badgers!

[orkavaradu84]

this is amazing!

[ferreelzzsedra]

I'm just completely captivated

[carboff]

I can't stand her when she does all her pop dacey stuff and dresses like a clown but when she does stuff like this she's brilliant, at least she has talent though at the end of the day unlike most of the money grabbing sing anything that's put in front of them x factor idiots.

[Em3riCanOc]

my opinion for lady gaga ,is much better now, after hearing this cover,

[LeFlowuhPowuh]

"Be my Chris and I'll be your Gwyneth" nice twist.

[AGloriousMelody]

This women has one of the best voices in the music industry to this day. But she just doesn't show it enough in her own songs!!! <3

[elskasa]

if i heard this for the first time i would of thought this is her song <3

[YesIShareMyself]

This is bloody fantastic. It's great when different singers put their own spin on songs which aren't their own.

[OeNoesRAWR]

She took the coldplay, and gave it her own spin, and it actually sounds decent :D

[S34TTLE]

Wow, actually listened to a whole Coldplay song without falling asleep, Amazing!!!

[Dkkbulletsmile]

i gotta admit here that she showed off her artistic side well good here, as she was improvising the lyrics and most of the melody

btw i'm not really into gaga but she did a good job here though

[georgep6461]

@Dkkbulletsmile you don't have to say your not in her nothing embarrassing about it. she is talented. it hard for a guy to admit gaga is a good singer but it is the truth she sings greatly and i think she just should lay off the fancy dress party only in concerts. but that is what makes her unique...

[glbarlow1]

pretty sure if you're going to sing a cover, you should at least know the freaking words. Its cool that she put her own spin on it but she didnt do the song justice

[ejs2690]

I love her twist on it! She stayed true to her sound and the music she does! Fantastic!

[zanetTt]

12:05 and her voice is so fresh ]]] really cool!

[Icerama108]

@zanetTt There is no 12:05 . . . 

[zanetTt]

@Icerama108 I´m talkingabout time. ]]

[Icerama108]

@zanetTt What time?

[zanetTt]

@Icerama108 Tme, which U can see in the video in the background. ;-)

[TheMegantierney]

she gets the words wrong and still sounds better than any other live lounge. no fair:(

[imsuchagleek1]

when she hit that note at 2:53...i got chills...

[XraffelX]

WOw she can really good sing great voice miss lady gaga ;)

[mrscullen838]

she's actually an amazing musician i dont think people realize she is singing and making up the piano as she goes along

Whoch is hard

[portishphonic]

You can't see the lyrics on the paper in front of you? Get rid of the glasses and that horrible fucking thing on your head.

[h0b0p13isbannedwtf]

yes. this is the best song she has ever done :)

[msmiley94]

@h0b0p13isbannedwtf Look up the songs Again Again and Brown Eyes by Lady Gaga

[Sabina5Husain]

She has a beautiful voice - she should do more songs like this - instead of songs like 'disco stick'

[ausername182]

Pooed myself at 2:53 :(

[RetroOaf]

2:50

Jesus Christ!!!

[xchristiebx]

The reason she Is weird Is because she is Lady Gaga. It's just who she Is. If she wasn't she would be Stephanie Germanotta

[Jeolia]

i like the 'just a gaga on a lonely string part'... :P

[Jeolia]

some parts were great... the beginning wasn't that great

[romaromave]

Gaga no es una artista plástica, es puro talento !!! a relazado la música pop

[luktheduk68]

Why does Lady Gaga have to be so god damn weird? She had so much potential.

[pamew]

@luktheduk68 "Why does Lady Gaga have to be so god damn weird?"

Haha, yeah, because talented musicians are, as we all know, generally boringly normal.

Why does her behaviour at any level affect her as a musician for you, is to me, a much better question.

[luktheduk68]

@pamew weird in music style. i mean her outfits are just ridiculous and her choice of style is just loud and annoying. i love her voice, and that little thing she does at 0:16.

[Karajadeshuker15]

GAGAGAGAGAGGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAG­AGA<3

[brdlystvll]

ew this is nasty and gross and every other word that relates to those. she sickens me. TOTALLY BUTCHERED A GREAT SONG!!!!!!!!

[1990jkc]

@brdlystvll Dont watch it then =)

[1990jkc]

@brdlystvll Dont watch it then =)

[LittleMonster703]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEE shes so awesome and adorable

[goinroundthebend]

@3:27 Lawl! And yes, I think it's a pretty good job too :D

[iDafterPunk]

It's alright, but It'd be better if she kept to the original tune more. But thats just my opinion, this is so much better than her other music.

[ssmiggle85]

not that bad:)

[ElliEctricity]

I love how even she sometimes messes words up <3

And I love how this is proof she is much more talented than she's actually famous for, if you catch my drift, and everyone that thinks she's just a crappy pop singer, needs to listen to this. Her voice is actually really amazing!

[narcoticfish]

I don't think her vapid synth shit does her soulful voice justice.

[jellybeanfairyxxx]

wish she'd sing songs like this more often..

[TheShaunaStyles]

WOW.

[sonicdeatmonkey]

am i listening to the same thing as everyone else, can you hear her voice, she completely nailed this its fantastic !!!!

[jamioe100]

@sonicdeatmonkey its good but not as good as the original as is the case with MOST covers.

[xEyelidx]

I actually like this better than Coldplay.

[sandinmysandwich1]

@xEyelidx Agreed!

[Strictlyvoices1]

amazing but we could do better team #strictly voices

[SewahFwancesca]

I love her..... <3<3

[SewahFwancesca]

I love her..... <3<3

[munchingonlego]

Come to me, i don't think my boyfriend would mind..

[Scuzzz]

oh my god she slaughtered one of my favourite songs

WHY WOULD YOU FUCKING DO THIS

[rosaleenauk]

shes terrible...

[vlMart1ns]

@rosaleenauk i don't think you wacthed the same video the rest of us did mate...

[rosaleenauk]

@vlMart1ns i think i did... Its just my opinion "/ she looks too manufactured for my taste idk, im not saying your opinion is wrong, but i just dont find her a good musician, fashionista or any other title the newspaper deems her.

[Yvonneeh]

Be my Chris and I'll be your Gwyneth, haha!

[TwilightOfTime1221]

She's great. Nothing more can be said. Maybe.... SHES FANTASTIC!!!!!!!

[Lukay111]

omg, hands off coldplay, trashlady

[ahtchilili]

AMAZING ! 

[WigMinstrel]

I don't like Gaga because she tries to be wacky, but you can't deny she is very talented. It's sad really.

[bb3840]

wow this is just an amazing cover!

[mdavid504]

she's amazing :)

[jjjbannister]

I'm not surprised she messed up the words, must be difficult to read with a hat covering your face...

Love you Gaga.

[lovealinaa]

i heard this forever ago and it's one of the most beautiful covers i've ever heard

[JoejonasBBBB]

omgg she is so amazing !!

[russellaggett1]

she can sure play the piano.

[katiebcunningham1]

das sum version :D

[Tasha2905Dugz]

omg i love her! <3 :') xx

[ubergypsy89]

Quite a lot of mistakes, could have been a lot better. Kinda reminds me of regina spektor, I recon she would do a similar version. And yeah its good to hear a pop star who can actually sing really well live.

[angeldevil56]

Even though she messed it up, it still sounds so right. She sings as if it's the most natural thing in the world... she sings as if she's only breathing. Amazing, actually. She sings as if the song is hers.

[ThePaperGangsta64]

best. fucking. cover. of. anything. ever. at. all. in. the. world. ever.

[Megzerz96]

That's a true artist; someone who laughs at themselves who screw up and just get on with it! <3

[finonia]

I like this better than the original

[mrgravyman]

I love lady gaga but my friends who hate her were saying loads of things tonight. Two of them were that she uses auto tune in radio 1's live lounge and that she doesn't write her own music. I personally think those accusations are BS but I'd like to clarify it with the other monsters out there.

[MrMLH93]

@mrgravyman Nobody uses auto tune in live lounge, and she does write her own music.

[mrgravyman]

@MrMLH93 Thank's for clarifying :)

[Brendilov]

Nice!



[Lottielovesmusic]

Perfect cover.. shes not all kooky lyrics and show stopping outits, she has an amazing voice. LOVE IT!!

[JourSaysRelax]

Oh wow, what a beaut. <3

[RobJackHartley]

You know this is just one of the reasons why I love Gaga. She can instantly make any song her own. And if she does stuff up, she jokes about it and keeps going.

[whirlyfan]

well done lady gaga nice hat

[laurenoxox01]

she'd make a good rocker

[Lozzabeyyy]

she knows she's amazing, I LOVE HER

[condorpride37]

she'd be good if she wasn't so weird and her fans wouldnt act like shes god...she should just act normal and stop trying to get so much attention

[topandtilch]

you ruined this.

[93simo1]

@topandtilch why do you speak without thinking? bah..

[topandtilch]

@93simo1 hey im not going to argue with you :-)

its my opinion just like that's yours & that's cool...its just not my cup of tea love >.<

[awmckenna]

No wonder she messed the words up! How does she see past that hat! Crikey! Sounds awesome though :)

[anjani252]

lady gaga can sing ..........wow ...got to know this thing just right now ..and she can play the casio tooo....

[Lee74740]

@Clive.....I'm a massive Coldplay fan and she oodles talent. Not many people can interchange like that. And Chris Martin loved it so shows how much you know!

[TheCokhead]

one word- TWAT

[DaneBabyJo]

the oh oh oh oh ohs are awful

[Olive2244]

oooooh wtf gaga !! the worst cover ever ewwww ! don't you dare to make a cover of coldplay again !!

[bythe95]

This shows off her voice perfectly :)

[MrSaltyseadog]

absolutely murdered it...

[DjCalliMixes]

ah ah ah ohhh ah ah ah ohhh ah ah ohh

[JAGillmor]

one singer who can actually SING!

[myARTjournal]

@JAGillmor one? theyre are many who can sing...

[JAGillmor]

@myARTjournal i never said that theres only one? i said one singer, as in one of the singers?

[myARTjournal]

@JAGillmor oh lol i misread that haha

[makomerekun]

did she really have to?? #fail

[MonsterSceneGirls]

Not perfect, but shes still amazing... her voice is just beautiful.

[TheJohndoe63]

never an an an an an honest word

[TheJohndoe63]

class of her own,,makes me gaga

[BloodSlut]

gaga should make different music her voice is good but she looks like a cheap whore and her music sucks ass ..

[dannydarkbaracuda]

@BloodSlut how does she look like a cheap whore when shes in chanel?
