L8D Gaga
I’ll put myself on the pyre. Lady Gaga is awesome. As someone with good taste in music that’s stayed current on pop music developments for the past decade and a half, I’ll say that. Girl-pop, dance… not my styles. But she’s good.
It’s an interesting coincidence that Michael Jackson just died because she exhibits the same sort of pop-changing style and musical advancement that he did twenty plus years ago. Not only is she a great performer who writes her own music, she puts it all into her persona and image.
I realize that it would have been more clairvoyant if I’d posted this a year ago, but with her recent Telephone release (which, to be honest, I’m not too keen on the song…. YET) her artistry is completely apparent.
Bottom line, if you dismissed her as a Britney/Christina clone, you should give her a chance.
