Starships Debate (a thread)

“Get a wave” vs “Get away”

At the time of recording, I think it was definitely “wave”. It’s easier to tell from live performances that year. However Nicki occasionally said “way” in the following years. In 2019 Nicki went back to “wave”.

See below

American Idol (2012)

The “v” in wave is more clear here

Today Show (2012)

Again the “v” is clearer here

iHeart Radio (2014)

Here Nicki says “way” very clearly with a closeup of her mouth

Nicki Wrld Tour (2019)

Even though the audience sings along, you can hear Nicki say “wave”
