Believe it or not, this was the first time I've ever heard a Lady Gaga song. You're telling me this is a legitimate song and not a parody of something?

Brings up check list, let's see, no voice? Check. Bad lyrics? Check. Campy video? Check. Forgotten in a few months? Check.

Hell, she's not even cute.

I was wondering if someone could translate a line from this song:

"I won't tell you that I love you, just to hug you, cuz I'm bluffin, with my muffin, I'm not lyin I'm just stunnin with my love glue gunnin"

Other than the fact that she's bluffing with her vagina in some way, I'm not sure what that means.

Sweet! You know the words! Welcome my gay brother!

haha you're obviously too new here to understand who you're talking to. When I first joined these forums, I was a wee 15 year old lad that was not ashamed of his nsync collection.

Tits unto infinity.

I guess we're just not hip (or blindly desperate) enough to understand, Magnus. :(

She's cute, she just dresses very....strange. And it kinda hides it.

One thing you have to realize about Lady Gaga is that she didn't enter the pop world like a Britney Spears did. She came up through the dance/electronic music ranks, which is a different world. She just happened to catch on with the mainstream crowd, which is actually very rare for dance music.

To me, she looks like just about every other hideously made-up, jail-bait 13 year old wannabe currently infesting a mall or Dairy Queen parking lot near you.

You go to the mall?

BTW-She's 23 years old according to Wikipedia.

Gaga was born in Yonkers, New York to an internet entrepreneur father and a business partner, her mother is Greek and her father is Italian.[9][10] As a child, she attended the private Catholic school Convent of the Sacred Heart.[11] Having learned piano by ear at the age of four, Gaga went on to write her first piano ballad at 13 and began performing at open mic nights by the age of 14.[6] At the age of seventeen, Gaga was one of twenty people in the world to have gained early admission to the New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, where she studied music.[6] She honed her writing skills by composing essays and analytical papers focusing on topics such as art, religion and socio-policital order.[12] However she withdrew from the New York University.[4]

After she moved out of her parent's house,[13] Gaga started hanging out downtown, performing in the Lower East Side club scene with bands Mackin Pulsifer and SGBand. Finding herself surrounded by singers who all wrote the same style of music, she decided to do something fresh and provocative in the rock 'n roll underground: pop music.[14] Her entrepreneur father was shocked when she ran off to the Lower East Side to dabble in drugs and appear in burlesque shows at dive bars with drag queens and go-go dancers. "He couldn't look at me for a few months," she admits of her early experimentation. "I was in leather thongs, so it was hard for him ? he just didn't understand."[11]

Gaga got her stage name when the music producer Rob Fusari compared her vocal style to that of Freddie Mercury and took the name 'Gaga' from the Queen song, "Radio Ga-Ga". It was Fusari that helped her to write some of her early hits, including "Disco Heaven", "Dirty Ice Cream" and "Beautiful, Dirty, Rich"

Hmmm. Is this a case of MtB not being a good judge of musical talent, or of LGG disregarding any and all natural and trained ability when performing?
