Lady Gaga Covers Kanye West's "Heartless" Live in Toronto

June 22, 2009 9:24 AM ET

Kanye West went on The View earlier this month and announced he'd be going on tour with Lady Gaga, praising the fashion-forward "Poker Face" singer as "not an opening act." Now Gaga has returned the favor: she took a seat at her custom-designed Pyrex piano and started to play "Heartless" in Toronto Friday night. "So did you hear about the Kanye tour?" she asked during a pause. When the cheers died down, she added, "I would say Kanye is one of the most talented and intuitive people I've known in a long time." Watch the clip, above, and get maximum Gaga here.

“Help Me”

Joni Mitchell | 1974

Joni Mitchell wrote and recorded this song for her album Court and Spark, but she had to switch from her regular band to make the song sound exactly the way she wanted. "I had attempted to play my music with rock & roll players," she told Rolling Stone. "They’d laugh, 'Awww, isn't that cute? She's trying to teach us how to play.'" Mitchell switched to a jazz band, Tom Scott’s L.A. Express, and scored the biggest hit of her career in the process.
