didnt know she had a addiction. I am myself drinking very often because of depression and eating dissorder and will start a therapy in some time. This Song gives me hope.
I don't tend to get emotional when a famous person passes away, but Gaga, if I ever lost you I would feel so lost in life. Since you have burst onto the scene, from day one I have looked up to you. . . I have looked to your creativeness, your individuality, your love and talent. You have unknowingly helped me grow through my teenage years, helped me fight my anxiety and depression and helped me accept who I am. I can easily say that without you, I wouldn't be the person I am today. I have cried with you and I have partied with you at the ARTRAVE in 2014. Never leave us please
You're not the only one! This year I lost my other half, David Bowie, whom I felt the same way you feel about Gaga. I couldn't lose Gaga. I fucken love her so much.
coming from an addicts perspective this song is extremely powerful. I literally thought she wrote this song for me when I first heard it. it describes the struggle addiction causes losing everyone around. great song
I was listening to this song when I was 10yrs old and its my fave back then, right now as I listened to it again, it hits very different now. My father is an alcohol addict and my mother down wanna go home again with us because of his addiction and he is depressed. I feel so sad and hurt listening to this song as I understand everything about this song right now. God bless u, Gaga.
You know what's funny? Every Lady Gaga video of a popular song has so many dislikes but her unknown shit has a lot of likes. That proves that haters just go to her popular videos to dislike it then leave, it feels good being in a Lady Gaga video with just her fans.
They dislike what they dont understand, nowadays ppl will more appreciate songs about booty shaking and twerking, that being said those hater only knows her by her name. I love her she's very kind to her fans and very talented..
That has nothing to do with the song or subject of the video. They just like f@#&in things up like little gremlins because that's how they get their jollies in life. It doesn't even matter if it's a cute puppy video. lol Of course, the more popular the video, the more they come out.
That's what I thought too when I first heard this song. I'm going through a rough time with depression and anxiety and have lots of bad habits that I can relate this song to.
@@franky2347 I also have bipolar disorder and have struggled with dr*gs and alcohol (in recovery now, thank god! If I didn't get sober when I did, I wouldn't be here today, that's for sure!) this song has meant so much to me over the years! I always love Gaga's performances the most when it's just her and her piano! She's incredible!
THIS is a real song. THIS is real art. Goodness, Ive recently fallen in love with this artist. Most modern pop is so bad. This is something entirely different!
Lady Gaga is one of those rare artist that can relate to us in real life, not some pop start who only sings songs without meaning. Her music always has a story or take away message and although she is in wigs, has make up on a lot, she is the best and REALEST musical artist out there. Period.
One of the hardest things I ever had to give up was drugs and alcohol, and I still have a real hard time with it. But too many great artists, and too many friends, go, because of those two things. And I want tonight so badly to be a change... I do not have to be high to be creative, I do not have to be drunk to have a good idea. I can sit with my thoughts, and not feel crazy. I can do it. I can do it without the dope. -Gaga
Hi everyone. I just wanted to say that gaga helps me so much. I have had a dope addiction for about two years now, and im struggling so badly. I am alone every night, and I sit here by myself hoping one day I will be better, but this has just become me. Please guys, stay away from hard drugs, I love you all, especially you gaga.
but still.."you are beautiful Dylan 'Cause God makes no mistakes and you´re on the right track, baby Don't hide yourself in regret Just love yourself and you're set ... Don't be a drag, just be a queen Don't be a drag, just be a queen Don't be a drag, just be a queen Don't be Give yourself prudence and love your friends Subway kid, rejoice of truth In the religion of the insecure you must be yourself, enjoy youth..
Same here, I got to see her in Phoenix in July on my birthday, it was awesome but this song it home big time when she performed it, I hadn't heard it til then, cried then and still cry now but it's beautiful.
When Gaga first came out, I liked her dance music and thought she was quirky but in the last two years I have realized how absolutely talented and innovative she is. I'm a huge fan now. I guess once she started being more raw and herself I caught on. This song is gold.
Okay I respect and like Gaga but don't idolize her or anyone. There are many great kind and compassionate musicians and actors out there who have opened up to their fans.
Yeah, this made me cry. I remember going to my first ever Born This Way Ball on the 30th of November last year in Johannesburg with who was then my best friend. I'll never forget how incredible this woman made every one of the 80,000 people that had showed up to the concert feel. I was less than 10 steps away from her and the emotion on her face, in her eyes, in her voice was just unbelievable. Her speeches between songs were so sincere and genuine and I really felt like she was an old friend of mine. I truly love Lady Gaga, and she's an inspiration to me. I cried watching this, because I remembered how close my friend and I were when we went to this concert. How we only knew a few songs, but that didn't stop us from having the most amazing time.. It also reminded me of how much we've drifted apart since then. I know things will never be the same between her and I again, but I'm just grateful that I went to the Born This Way Ball with her. And even though she'll never see this, I just want you to know that I love you, Sedi.
This woman should be inducted as a National Treasure. When life gets you down the most, listen to LADY GAGA (S.G.) and she reminds you what it is to be a human being...and what it takes to go on.
8 Years, 105 Months, 3,211 Days, 77,078 hours, 4,624,708 Minutes, 277,482,536 seconds! *Truly amazing what One Day at A time can give you. Sobriety is THE ultimate FREEDOM***
***** its a meaningful and beautiful song about past struggles in her life. she finally overcame her problems and wants to help others do the same. and if you can't respect that, you need some help, man.
***** hahaha, it is a bit self indulgent. If she's alcoholic and still fighting the drink she will end up at the bottom like the rest of them who think they can buy their way to recovery. Alcoholism is the great equalizer. It levels the rich, the high and mighty , down to the level of the bum in the alleyway. Just ask the other musical genius.... Winehouse, oh wait....
She's one of the few artists that sounds just as good live as she does in her CDs. This song always makes me cry, I'd love to meet her. She's so inspirational.
I've never really listened to Lady Gaga's other albums but this one has stuck with me. This song can make you cry even if you are not an extreme fan of Lady Gaga and it takes a lot of guts for someone famous to point out stuff like this and apologize. I really appreciate how truthful and genuine she is. (^-^)
Much respect to you Lady Gaga. I lost my father to alcohol, and almost my wife. She's recovering, but it's not easy. Thank you for making the public aware that it is not easy to quit. Thank you.
Thank you GaGa, I cried watching this because I have had family and friends affected by addiction, some are no longer with us. Please keep creating the music that you do, because it's real, it's honest, it makes me feel like my experiences are at least understood by others, and that we aren't alone in those experiences, good or bad. NEVER let the negativity diminish the light in your music. You are amazing.
The Time Vevo didnt hate lady Gaga as much as now . Vevo have deleted over 60k comments , 200k likes and 30millions views on John Wayne Music Video. and now you know Sia copying lady Gaga old style
favorite performance of all time, so much emotion. gaga cares so much about the monsters, and this performance shows her absolute compassion for her work and her supporters. forever love
She is one of the most beautiful, creative, and most real artists out there today. She sings with her heart and you can see how passionate she is about what she does. She doesn't pretend to be anything she isn't and I think everybody can learn something from her. Love her to bits
Robert C If you're talking about the costumes and all the showy stuff, thats not really what I'm talking about. The costumes are all for show, eye candy, if you will. But what she sings, how she opens up and says what she means is the most beautiful and real thing to me.
Lyrics Cork's off, it's on The party's just begun I promise This drink is my last one I know I fucked up again Because I lost my only friend God forgive my sins Don't leave me, I Oh I will hate myself until I die My heart would break without you Might not awake without you Been hurting low, from living high for so long I'm sorry, and I love you Sing with me, "Bell Bottom Blue" I'll keep on searching for an answer cause I need you more than dope I need you more than dope Need you more than dope Need you more than dope I need you more than dope Toast one last puff And two last regrets Three spirits and Twelve lonely steps Up heaven's stairway to gold Mine myself like coal A mountain of a soul Each day, I cry Oh, I feel so low from living high My heart would break without you Might not awake without you Been hurting low, from living high for so long I'm sorry, and I love you Sing with me, "Bell Bottom Blue" I'll keep searching for an answer cause I need you more than dope I need you more than dope I need you more than dope I need you more than dope I need you more than dope I need you more Need you more I need you more than dope
Her range, vibrato and growls are impeccable. People can say she can't sing; doesn't mean it's true. She belted an E5 effortlessly twice in this performance, can you 'haters' do that?
@@Paara106 one thing is to cheer, other is to ruin the song for everybody else, one time would be more than enough, and this version is different anyways
If this is going to be on youtube 100%, why is everybody recording this? They aren't gonna watch their messy clips anyway. Just live that moment, you were lucky to be there
It takes a talented person to write honestly, about dependency to chemicals. I know that as an artist it was the scariest thing to perform a song I wrote, in front of an audience. The mere fact that she is so strong vocally shows how deep from her soul this song goes. Writing music, or doing any other art for that matter, is a means for your soul to have a voice. Not many have the strength, or the confidence to go there. She is hands down the best vocalist of this century! WWG1WGA Lady Gaga, you are truly the best artist this century has seen.
as a teenager your music helps me get vibes i need to get. whenever im sad, i listen to you. When im happy, i listen to you. Whenever i feel pain, pressure and frustrations, i listen to you. Your music is somewhat whispering things to me, that i should do. Please continue making great music.
Yesterday, I smoked weed for the first time. My bestfriend was like my everything. She found out today that I smoked weed, and she just said words that I never thought she would say them to me. I lost her. I feel real stupid right now. I will NEVER EVER do it again, 'Cause I can be thousand times more happy without drugs. So now I'm listening to this song because it explains my story and I can't help myself from crying.
Don't listen to Kevin this song does apply to your situation. This song is about the importance of people that care about you and people that you care for over drugs. It's very easy to lose sight of value while using using dope.
You lost your best friend because you smoked weed once? Gosh weed is healthier than alcohol or a normal cigarette. Doctors use it as a medicine. It's not cocaine or heroine or something like that.
Is that really happened, your "friend" was not a real friend. Real friends won't judge you like that from smoking weed once. I find it hard to believe that was the real reason. It's weed not meth.
I was in a true bad place around Christmas two years back, I happen to hear this number on you tube awards- well I listened to it over, and over, and over with tears non stop because I finely looked at what I lost in my life, I was torn up and all I wanted to do was not think anymore, dealt w/ my pain, got thur that month, been off the dope/ booze sense, had good times sober, had bad times too, sober, still dealing with the loss of a girl friend/ Fiance, staying sober still two years later, thank you Lady Gaga for singing my song to keep me alive, I'm even helping others w/ there demons,,,, I am still alone tho, it's killing me, my art, my music writing , it's empty for me, not saying the lack of using is making me empty, I just like to be able to have someone see my soul and someone opening up there's to me, I want to love again,,,, thanks
I love her Like really really much I love her music, I love her looks, I love her personality, her everything Many people judge me because she is disgusting and weird and crazy to them, but I don't care Gaga is such a great person, and an amazing inspiration She is beautiful, in the outside and inside too People should stop judging her just because of some things she has done in the past She's a great singer, songwriter, actress and dancer Stay strong Gaga, we love you :) ❤️
This performance, and her other performance's prove that this woman can sing, and her message is probably one of the most beautiful messages for a fan to ever hear.
Love the purity of GAGA's way of speaking to us all about not being in denial about the world of drugs and liquor. Im certainly no angel and struggle everyday as well. Like i am learning everyday, Lady Gaga's music will be one thin that lives on forever. My most favourite artist in my miserable life. Gaga is one person that makes everyday a little easier to keep on living.
I sent this to my daughter. Young I was. Grew out of it, I said. The love of your mom saved my life. Daughter called. She cried, "Dad, help me". She's still alive to fight. Thank you Lady.
When this song came out I was having my own battle with alcohol. Now 2020 im sober but I can garentee this song helped me make that decision to go to rehabt
I'm sobbing I love her so much you guys have no idea how happy this woman makes me I just wanna cry forever because I love her with all my broken heart ❤️
When she sang ‘forgive me monsters won’t you’ I got goosebumps, I’m not even kidding. All the chills. I’ve been a little monster for years now and I can say that I’ll never stop supporting her and the art she creates.
My brother has been destroyed by drugs. He was such a cool guy too, it really sucks. He's only in his 20's but he looks half dead and so aged and his brain is damaged from ODing. He was smart, good looking and charming and now while he is still alive and breathing my brother is truly gone.
This made me cry! I love this lonesome ballad it reminds me of the 60s. I love that she out right sings about it instead of sugar coating it. Thank you.
She's a True Lyrical Genius. I Absolutely Adore her, she has single-handedly renewed my love of music. There's hardly anyone, anymore that can reach down deep into the deepest corners of your soul and touch the darkness, the hollowed out shell of our souls and say "Come on out, Join us- We're All A Little Mad Around Here". Thank you, Gaga for giving us (the forgotten ones) a reason to brave the brightness of the "Normal World".
Great inspirational song. Love when Lady GaGa sings to the piano, her keyboard is awesome, nice number. Love the white outfit and even more that swish white grand piano. Magnificent Performance:))
TheMelopeus it inspires us to appreciate the people around us. Its as simple as that. It inspires us to continue to live even if were on the edge of falling. It inspires us to see beyond whats happening right in front of our eyes. It inspires us to envision our lives better than where we are right now. It inspires us to change.
This performance was just everything. Dope is definitely one of my favorite ARTPOP songs, I can feel what she wants to express. Gaga's balladas are flawless :)
Lady Gaga a quelque chose de plus que les autres artistes : elle est elle même et ce pour toujours ! C'est pour sa qu'on l'aime... C'est grâce à elle que la vie est moins triste! ♥
The best versions of her songs are always the live ones on the piano
They are beautiful ballads I also loved her on the 🎸❤

8 Years, 105 Months, 3,211 Days, 77,078 hours, 4,624,708 Minutes, 277,482,536 seconds! *Truly amazing what One Day at A time can give you. Sobriety is THE ultimate FREEDOM***
I haven't dropped a single tear for years. But when I first listened to this song I cried
Stop.
crybaby :P
***** its a meaningful and beautiful song about past struggles in her life. she finally overcame her problems and wants to help others do the same. and if you can't respect that, you need some help, man.
*****
hahaha, it is a bit self indulgent.
If she's alcoholic and still fighting the drink she will end up at the bottom like the rest of them who think they can buy their way to recovery.
Alcoholism is the great equalizer. It levels the rich, the high and mighty ,
down to the level of the bum in the alleyway.
Just ask the other musical genius.... Winehouse, oh wait....
***** 1. I like Gaga; 2. When I posted this I was experiencing similar struggles. The song resonated with me, I see no shame in that.
She's one of the few artists that sounds just as good live as she does in her CDs. This song always makes me cry, I'd love to meet her. She's so inspirational.
i know...im bawling
Best live Performer!
I THOUGHT HE JUST SCREAMED AT THE ONE PART BUT NO TOAD SCREAMED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE DAMN VIDEO WHEEEZEEE
I've never really listened to Lady Gaga's other albums but this one has stuck with me. This song can make you cry even if you are not an extreme fan of Lady Gaga and it takes a lot of guts for someone famous to point out stuff like this and apologize. I really appreciate how truthful and genuine she is. (^-^)
SmallSauce it's one of those you could play for anyone who tells you she's talentless
she's cool. been there.
And her boldness and cander.
Much respect to you Lady Gaga. I lost my father to alcohol, and almost my wife. She's recovering, but it's not easy. Thank you for making the public aware that it is not easy to quit. Thank you.
How's your life? I hope it get much better, i see you deserve it
Can't believe Toad is screaming the whole performance 😂😂😂
Thank you GaGa, I cried watching this because I have had family and friends affected by addiction, some are no longer with us. Please keep creating the music that you do, because it's real, it's honest, it makes me feel like my experiences are at least understood by others, and that we aren't alone in those experiences, good or bad. NEVER let the negativity diminish the light in your music. You are amazing.
amen!
Wow... She's such a great person... When will your fave ever tell you they need you to stay alive...
she's telling me to stay myself. is that right?XD
Steven Matthews she told me that I'm beautiful no matter what they say , words can bring me down. Is that enough?
The Time Vevo didnt hate lady Gaga as much as now . Vevo have deleted over 60k comments , 200k likes and 30millions views on John Wayne Music Video. and now you know Sia copying lady Gaga old style
Zak Mik sia is not copying she is totally different and im a fan of both and i see the difference
Why can't i watch this video now😢
favorite performance of all time, so much emotion. gaga cares so much about the monsters, and this performance shows her absolute compassion for her work and her supporters. forever love
She is one of the most beautiful, creative, and most real artists out there today. She sings with her heart and you can see how passionate she is about what she does. She doesn't pretend to be anything she isn't and I think everybody can learn something from her. Love her to bits
really? she's all about pretense. that's what Mary Jane Holland is about
Robert C
If you're talking about the costumes and all the showy stuff, thats not really what I'm talking about. The costumes are all for show, eye candy, if you will. But what she sings, how she opens up and says what she means is the most beautiful and real thing to me.
+Rebekah Loves yes. definitely!
@@robertc6912 and that's worry you and you need to make down all good people. your level of mind. don't make projection on other from y fck mind
Lyrics
Cork's off, it's on
The party's just begun
I promise
This drink is my last one
I know I fucked up again
Because I lost my only friend
God forgive my sins
Don't leave me, I
Oh I will hate myself until I die
My heart would break without you
Might not awake without you
Been hurting low, from living high for so long
I'm sorry, and I love you
Sing with me, "Bell Bottom Blue"
I'll keep on searching for an answer cause I need you more than dope
I need you more than dope
Need you more than dope
Need you more than dope
I need you more than dope
Toast one last puff
And two last regrets
Three spirits and
Twelve lonely steps
Up heaven's stairway to gold
Mine myself like coal
A mountain of a soul
Each day, I cry
Oh, I feel so low from living high
My heart would break without you
Might not awake without you
Been hurting low, from living high for so long
I'm sorry, and I love you
Sing with me, "Bell Bottom Blue"
I'll keep searching for an answer cause I need you more than dope
I need you more than dope
I need you more than dope
I need you more than dope
I need you more than dope
I need you more
Need you more
I need you more than dope
Flo - Thanks!
You forgot toad
@@enawithagun4070 right😭
@@Flo-fl9sd no no its okay IT WAS BEAUTIFUL
@@enawithagun4070 an ✨amazing✨ noise
Her range, vibrato and growls are impeccable. People can say she can't sing; doesn't mean it's true. She belted an E5 effortlessly twice in this performance, can you 'haters' do that?
I love her so much. I'm crying.
6:26
gaga i love you so much?
omg she's perfect?
omg she's so good
first i heard omg shes so good but after this comment i now hear all three 😮
Such a talented genious, what a voice... she's amazing!!!
yas
You meant toad, right?
the piano arrangement in this is EVERYTHING. a genuine artist having a genuine moment with her fans.
throughout the song you can just hear toad😭
Omg, I thought it was just one part not the whole thing lol
yeah like shut the fuck up I wanted to listen to the song ;-;
So annoying lmao
@@notalice... If you don’t want to hear the fans then go watch the official version?
@@Paara106 one thing is to cheer, other is to ruin the song for everybody else, one time would be more than enough, and this version is different anyways
If this is going to be on youtube 100%, why is everybody recording this? They aren't gonna watch their messy clips anyway. Just live that moment, you were lucky to be there
could not agree more!
insta biatch
lmao do you know that everyone doing the same like that with other singers , have u seen yet except this one
maybe the cell phones were so ubiquitous you needed to be 6'5" to see anything
Maybe to live the moment that I was there in video.
Her message is so strong and powerful, it just brings me to tears
It takes a talented person to write honestly, about dependency to chemicals. I know that as an artist it was the scariest thing to perform a song I wrote, in front of an audience. The mere fact that she is so strong vocally shows how deep from her soul this song goes. Writing music, or doing any other art for that matter, is a means for your soul to have a voice. Not many have the strength, or the confidence to go there. She is hands down the best vocalist of this century!
WWG1WGA Lady Gaga, you are truly the best artist this century has seen.
Forgive me monsters won't you?
Crying...
I forgive you MOM .
this song just bring so many tears to my eyes.....
"I'm sorry and I love you. Forgive me, monsters, won't you?"
i literally cried. this gets me every fckng time. We love you always, mother monster.
Thank god she cleaned up. I can't love a popstar who may die from drugs. stay clean Gaga, we need you.
We indeed do need such a great artist! GAGA I adore you! Wonderful song, amazing performance!
I guess you don't like Michael Jackson
@Alicia en el Pais de las Maravillas heehee
@Alicia en el Pais de las Maravillas you can choke michael is innocent
@Alicia en el Pais de las Maravillas ok boomer
as a teenager your music helps me get vibes i need to get. whenever im sad, i listen to you. When im happy, i listen to you. Whenever i feel pain, pressure and frustrations, i listen to you. Your music is somewhat whispering things to me, that i should do. Please continue making great music.
I can’t take this seriously with Toad screaming in the background
Me neither lmfao
What a gigantic artist. I'd far underrated her. She's the most genius female pop artist ever. Astonishing: simply GREAT !!
Yesterday, I smoked weed for the first time. My bestfriend was like my everything. She found out today that I smoked weed, and she just said words that I never thought she would say them to me. I lost her. I feel real stupid right now. I will NEVER EVER do it again, 'Cause I can be thousand times more happy without drugs. So now I'm listening to this song because it explains my story and I can't help myself from crying.
Smoked weed once? This song doesn't relate too that situation what so ever.
Don't listen to Kevin this song does apply to your situation. This song is about the importance of people that care about you and people that you care for over drugs. It's very easy to lose sight of value while using using dope.
You lost your best friend because you smoked weed once? Gosh weed is healthier than alcohol or a normal cigarette. Doctors use it as a medicine. It's not cocaine or heroine or something like that.
Tyst Gt your friend sounds like she sucks
Is that really happened, your "friend" was not a real friend. Real friends won't judge you like that from smoking weed once. I find it hard to believe that was the real reason. It's weed not meth.
I was in a true bad place around Christmas two years back, I happen to hear this number on you tube awards- well I listened to it over, and over, and over with tears non stop because I finely looked at what I lost in my life, I was torn up and all I wanted to do was not think anymore, dealt w/ my pain, got thur that month, been off the dope/ booze sense, had good times sober, had bad times too, sober, still dealing with the loss of a girl friend/ Fiance, staying sober still two years later, thank you Lady Gaga for singing my song to keep me alive, I'm even helping others w/ there demons,,,, I am still alone tho, it's killing me, my art, my music writing , it's empty for me, not saying the lack of using is making me empty, I just like to be able to have someone see my soul and someone opening up there's to me, I want to love again,,,, thanks
paul you’re not alone Paul! I’ll be here for you
I love her
Like really really much
I love her music, I love her looks, I love her personality, her everything
Many people judge me because she is disgusting and weird and crazy to them, but I don't care
Gaga is such a great person, and an amazing inspiration
She is beautiful, in the outside and inside too
People should stop judging her just because of some things she has done in the past
She's a great singer, songwriter, actress and dancer
Stay strong Gaga, we love you :) ❤️
so real. so flawless and natural. lovely. Dopeless. Explicit.
From someone who has struggled with addiction, and have been a fan of Gaga since I was young, this song is so inspirational and emotional to me.
This performance, and her other performance's prove that this woman can sing, and her message is probably one of the most beautiful messages for a fan to ever hear.
Why do fans have to scream like maniacs when artists are having an emotional moment? This was fucking masterful.
XDanW Have you ever been to a concert? Stfu. Gaga loves it
Leave toad alone
Ohhhh
OH MY GOD SHE FARTED
I'm sorry-
@@lauraiscool2549 BAHAHHA PLEASE
toad was fucking masterful
Love you Lady Gaga you saved my life many mornings over and over listening to your music especially this song sober five-and-a-half years now
Love the purity of GAGA's way of speaking to us all about not being in denial about the world of drugs and liquor. Im certainly no angel and struggle everyday as well. Like i am learning everyday, Lady Gaga's music will be one thin that lives on forever. My most favourite artist in my miserable life. Gaga is one person that makes everyday a little easier to keep on living.
I stopped listenning to Gaga 2 years ago (not for any reason). Now I see her again, she's still got it!
Reminder to listen to Gaga i 2021. She still has it 🤣
I sent this to my daughter. Young I was. Grew out of it, I said. The love of your mom saved my life. Daughter called. She cried, "Dad, help me". She's still alive to fight. Thank you Lady.
i wish i could like this video a thousand times.
this song helped me with drugs and alcohol...and it is hard to get over...
Kayla Leopard I'm glad you made it!😊😉❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
When this song came out I was having my own battle with alcohol. Now 2020 im sober but I can garentee this song helped me make that decision to go to rehabt
HER VOCALS GAWD DAAAAMNN 😍😍😍
I'm sobbing I love her so much you guys have no idea how happy this woman makes me I just wanna cry forever because I love her with all my broken heart ❤️
When she sang ‘forgive me monsters won’t you’ I got goosebumps, I’m not even kidding. All the chills.
I’ve been a little monster for years now and I can say that I’ll never stop supporting her and the art she creates.
My brother has been destroyed by drugs. He was such a cool guy too, it really sucks. He's only in his 20's but he looks half dead and so aged and his brain is damaged from ODing. He was smart, good looking and charming and now while he is still alive and breathing my brother is truly gone.
Sad...I hope the best for you and your brother
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Damn that sucks
R.I.P
This made me cry! I love this lonesome ballad it reminds me of the 60s. I love that she out right sings about it instead of sugar coating it. Thank you.
YALL THIS FINALLY DONT SAY PROCESSING NO MORE YESS!!
I swear I love this women. She's the reason I breathe. One of the realest and most authentic artist today!
i love her so much omg
Me too
She's a True Lyrical Genius. I Absolutely Adore her, she has single-handedly renewed my love of music. There's hardly anyone, anymore that can reach down deep into the deepest corners of your soul and touch the darkness, the hollowed out shell of our souls and say "Come on out, Join us- We're All A Little Mad Around Here". Thank you, Gaga for giving us (the forgotten ones) a reason to brave the brightness of the "Normal World".
Great inspirational song. Love when Lady GaGa sings to the piano, her keyboard is awesome, nice number.
Love the white outfit and even more that swish white grand piano. Magnificent Performance:))
I agree. She sang that song from the gut. I've watched it so many times because it's so real.
Steven Trapp Tops! Nice weekend:)
SeaBassVamp I do not understand, how does this song inspires you? What inspires you to do?
TheMelopeus OK.
TheMelopeus it inspires us to appreciate the people around us. Its as simple as that. It inspires us to continue to live even if were on the edge of falling. It inspires us to see beyond whats happening right in front of our eyes. It inspires us to envision our lives better than where we are right now. It inspires us to change.
This performance was just everything. Dope is definitely one of my favorite ARTPOP songs, I can feel what she wants to express. Gaga's balladas are flawless :)
It is impossible not to cry watching this
Lady Gaga a quelque chose de plus que les autres artistes : elle est elle même et ce pour toujours ! C'est pour sa qu'on l'aime... C'est grâce à elle que la vie est moins triste! ♥
c'est mignon haha
heureusement qu'on l'a elle est juste unique et irremplacable
you could see her struggling to open up about her personal life when she was giving the speech at the beginning
6:25 to hear Toad screaming "Omg she's perfect".
Estoy llorando. Esta mujer es increible. Es perfecta y consigue que sea mejor persona por ella. Ella es mi Mother Monster y la quiero
