13 Reminders That Lady Gaga Has Always Been Incredibly Talented

Just a girl and her piano straight-up slaying everyone's crew.

It's a little weird that so many people seemed surprised by Lady Gaga's epic tribute to The Sound of Music at the Oscars.

I mean, come on, people! Despite all the wild outfits and the sometimes hard-to-follow performance-art persona, this woman has been one of the most gifted singer/songwriter/performers walking the earth.

Sometimes all she needs is her voice and a damn piano to prove it!

So, for everyone who forgot about Gaga, here are a few lovely reminders of how great this Lady has always been:

1. When she was Stefani Germanotta in 2006, just crushing "Fever."
