There was perhaps no live performance more anticipated at tonight’s Grammy Awards than Lady Gaga’s tribute to David Bowie. And judging from reactions on Twitter, she either slayed her nine-song medley, or rushed through too many songs too fast.
We might need to watch it a few more times to be sure.
The night’s best performance — so far — goes to Kendrick Lamar, but certainly people will be talking about Gaga later tonight and tomorrow morning. The “Born This Way” singer sported several different looks from the Thin White Duke’s vibrant career, and was joined on stage by Nile Rodgers, who served as the performance’s musical director.
Relive Gaga’s fast-action Bowie spin via the video below (while it lasts), and if you’re scoring at home, her set went something like this: “Space Oddity”, “Changes”, “Ziggy Stardust”, “Suffragette City”, “Rebel Rebel”, “Fashion”, “Fame”, “Let’s Dance”, and “Heroes”.
Wham bam, thank you Gaga.
