    I can only agree with you. Awesome cover, everything she touches seem to turn to gold.

    She mangled one of my favorite songs.

    Absolutely mangled.

    :' (




    DISCLAIMER: I like Lady Gaga. Don't get me wrong, she's fantastic at what she does. She has a great voice and produces some good stuff. But in reality, she took a powerful song that told a story, mangled up the tune so badly that it's barely recognizable, and stripped it of all meaning. I feel she hasn't done justice to the original, which makes me quite sad because I think that she has the voice and ability to do so.

    Ditto, ditto, ditto. Viva la Vida is one of my favorite songs, and it doesn't transition well into a pop-ish song.

    It's not really pop.
    It's called 'Radio 1 Live LOUNGE'.

    Lounge music, for the most part, is absolutely terrible sounding in the first place.

    I personally like that she had fun with it. I enjoyed her take on the song too. That's what music (and all art for that matter) is all about you guys, expression and enjoyment.

    Yeah I have to agree, she's a good musician and all but I don't think she does this song justice

    I love Lady Gaga, but this cover is terrible compared to the original.

    I like both versions, but the major thing that Lady GaGa's version has over Coldplay is her diction.

    I couldn't understand all of the words in Coldplay's version, but thanks to Lady GaGa's amazing diction (she annunciates amazingly when she sings) I know all of the words, except for the ones that she changed.
