I have no doubt that Lady Gaga could do an amazing Bowie tribute but hoo, that one on the Grammys was not it. That was some seriously dumbed down material for the masses.

That was a very awkward medley, the breaks between pieces were far too obvious, it felt kind of like one of those old k-pop commercials for famous artists where they just play 5 seconds from each hit. Not only that but it felt like she was being weighed down by trying to perform all of the pieces just like Bowie did. There was no room for any kind of artistic interpretation or comment on his life and music through his music. It was just a sterile and cold performance that was slavishly dedicated to sounding like the originals. If you want to see how to do medley's right watch Kendrik Lamar on the Colbert show.

I wanted to link a youtube clip but none exists that isn't sped up which kind of ruins the sound. Slate is the only one I could find that works in Canada and sounds ok.

The whole time I was thinking "why is Bette Midler dressed like Elvis?"

It was fucking horrible, and it's a shame because Nile Rodgers was the musical director. It came across like a bad Vegas revue with zero artfulness and zero taste. I'm not a big Lady Gaga fan, but I would have expected something more interesting than whatever that was.

The Lemmy tribute was better, and all that was was a display with an amp, a bass and and some cowboy boots...and Johnny Depp playing "Ace of Spades" with Alice Cooper.

Fuck the Grammys anyway, shit was lame.

Apparently Bowie wanted to do something with Kendrick Lamar.
