didn't think much of her and her crazy act until I heard her on Stern singing "Edge of Glory" with just her playing piano. Anyone with doubts should google it. That woman can sing. Behind all of the outfits and the looks is one of the best voices int he business...
so I tried your link to You've Got A Friend. She has a very good voice, but at least in that performance, she over-emoted, which detracts a lot from the song.
So many people proclaiming to know something about something they know little about. :) Downfall of 'Murica.
I'm not a fan of her style of music, but after hearing her Tony Bennett stuff and her live work on Howard Stern, she has some serious pipes. She is outrageously talented. I was in awe listening to her.

Her performance on Stern with just her and a piano completely changed my opinion of her. The songs stripped down weren't half bad either.
Beyonce can't sing? I'd like you to watch this video of Beyonce singing acoustically at a children's hospital and see if you still believe that.
She annoys me, but her singing ability is undeniable.

She can sing, just in proportion to her fame. There are thousands and thousands of better singers than her in the world. For example this woman, who I suspect no one here has heard of can sing circles around Beyonce. There's tons more like her out there. Popular success depends too much on physical appearance for the best talent to be represented. Link - ( New Window )
and Lady Gaga's voice is self consciously overwraught
Check out her stuff with Tony Bennett if you haven't seen it yet.
Their chemistry is sweet. The age difference could be a little creepy with a song like "Baby it's Cold Outside", but it doesn't come off that way at all. They seemed to be having a great time - both in the studio and on tour - which goes a long way. She also keeps the delivery and production surprisingly simple when she's doing standards. For example, if you compare her version of "Lush Life" to Natalie Cole's, you might come away thinking Cole is the megastar and Gaga is just a really talented cabaret act, a la Blossom Dearie.

If you have any doubt about her talent or want to hear another great
Improvisation
Anyone can have an off night (especially with such an unforgiving song), but my money is on a terrific performance.
Yeah, they always search out down in the dumps has-beens for Super Bowl programming...

I'm not sure what some of you are concerned about.
Improvisation
They tape it the day before. Shouldn't be an issue.
My opinion of her completely changed after I heard her interview on Howard's show.
No, that's not it. She had a live mic and sang to a backing track of her vocals. SOP these days.
Look at this, not even plugged in:
She's acting on a pretty big show right now and part of some David Bowie tribute at the Grammys. Seems like things are pretty good.
Her own people acknowledged after the game that she was singing into a mic that wasn't live.

I guess to each his own, but I find her very physically unappealing and yes, homely.
