Lady Gaga - Telephone (acoustic)

This performance left me speechless. Gaga’s vocals during the first section of the song were so flawless and raw.
I may have a SLIGHT obsession with acoustic music right now…there’s just something about the vocal emphasis that draws me in…
Its a shame that she only shows off her vocal ability to this extent during live performances, yet her records all seem to focus on the technological, dance side of the track. I'm hoping that her new album features a wider range of tracks varying in pace, to show off the best of her vocals.

Queen: live at Milton Keynes (1982)

To think this gig i’m watching was 11 years before i was even born.
Yet I am so astounded by the pure brilliance of the band.
No matter how much live music has progressed over the years, this performance shows that when all the pyrotechnics & props are stripped from a performance its the music that captures the audience.

Words can’t explain how jaw-dropping i found this video.
Freddie’s voice and onstage personality, the use of acapella style midway, the moment the music in sync draws back in.
Just WOW.

This is why i love music so much, that a band such as this can still touch peoples hearts this many years on.
That a performance so stripped back as this can capture the hearts and attention of so many people.

I’m saddened that i wasn’t around to experience this at the time.

Queen forever have my heart & utmost respect. <3
