Didn’t know that she could really sing like that...
Was recently wondering what ever became of Gaga...
One of the musical numbers she performed was 'My Favorite Things' from the legendary movie 'Sound Of Music'. ��
Here are the lyrics she used:
(Sing It!) - If you sing it, its especially hysterical!!! ��
Botox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines tied up in string, These are a few of my favorite things. ��
Cadillacs and cataracts, hearing aids and glasses, Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses, Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings, These are a few of my favorite things. ��
When the pipes leak, When the bones creak, When the knees go bad, I simply remember my favorite things, And then I don't feel so bad. ��
Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions, No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions, Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they bring, These are a few of my favorite things. ��
Back pain, confused brains and no need for sinnin', Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin', And we won't mention our short shrunken frames, When we remember our favorite things. ��
When the joints ache, When the hips break, When the eyes grow dim, ��
Then I remember the great life I've had, And then I don't feel so bad.
Now that has class... I wonder if Gaga is getting tired of junk.
FROM THE AFP:

“In contrast to her own flamboyant concerts, Lady Gaga was all about the voice as she sang highlights from the beloved 1965 movie to the accompaniment of a string combo and a choir.”
Who woulda thunk?
I would have liked to have seen her in a Bratwurst Dress. LOL!
I didn’t watch the Oscars, but I am glad they recognized Julie Andrews.
She makes Madonna sound like a screeching cat.
Those of us who either saw or heard her sing, aqua hair and all, with Tony Bennett were not at all surprised at the range and beauty of her voice....she stole the show from where I was sitting.
But she has one of the dumbest show business names that ive heard of: lady gaga.
She ought to change that to something normal.
Downright classy aside from the massive bugle tattoos on her arms.
I think Lady Gaga ( real name Stefani Germanotta) is trying to reinvent herself ( much like the aging Rod Stewart did before her ).
She’s probably trying to show off her artistic range... you know, to be a star for any age - not just one tied to the fickle nature of the charts of the hour.
Heck, with this number, she even belted to the sky mother superior’s operatic finale, “Climb Every Mountain.”
Her most recent hit recording for instance showcased her ability to sing and perform American Standards when she recorded a full album “CHEEK to CHEEK” with Tony Bennett.
Her last pop album flopped big time, she knows that part of her career is over. Wish Madonna would take the same lesson from her.
True. Maybe she will change it when she gets married.
I liked them doing “Lady is a Tramp”.
You could really tell her performance was heartfelt. She did a good job.
dressed like that, it is not a tribute but an insult
I guess I was blessed. I wasn’t watching the oscars, but though, it’s 11:20, they should be to the winning film. Instead I was pleasantly surprised with the into of a singer I didn’t recognize beginning to sing “Sound of Music”. And then Julie Andrews appeared. And after the ‘best muscial score’ I turned off the tv.
