Lady Gaga

I never thought of Gaga as a risk-taker. Mozart could be considered a risk taker maybe but Gaga? Her music is pretty good and I think she is smart in terms of how she markets herself but other than that..I don't see many risks taken. Her fashion sense reminds me alot of Grace Jones though.

On the whole, there will always be a person like Grace Jones or Lady Gaga every generation. But I would not go so far to say they are frauds. It is just that most think their's was completly unique and not influenced by anyone.

Yeh, I think it is more about perception than anything. And I suppose that is ok, maybe some haven't seen anything like her before and they get excited by that. But they can't expect other people to just agree with that, as some will have experienced other artists than they have and so may see things differently.

Her new 'The Edge Of Glory' single is quite good actually. She actually sings alright and looks half normal for a change.

It is a good thing, although it does go away from the general theme of the album.

have you heard the full album?

the last two tracks don't really fit the theme of the album at all.

Born This Way and Judas fits the theme of the album though it's not that "weird" imo.
