Lady Gaga needs her own thread

new song is great imo

i don't really like "little monsters" as a designation for her fans though :/ never liked mariah calling hers "lambs" or tori amos calling hers "ears with feet" either

the more confrontational and alienating lady gaga is to her fans the more I will like her because it seems appropriate

i think the real fanboys and fangirls LOVE that (in all 3 cases) - i kind of feel i should cuz it's at root a way for those kids to feel like they "belong" to something, but it's still fairly cheesy

― لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Saturday, 10 July 2010 11:33 (2 years ago) Permalink

ugh i'm a realllly real fanboy and i don't love that shit

takes all the magic out of "monster" to make it so fuckin obvious

omg this song

― janice (surm), Saturday, 10 July 2010 15:35 (2 years ago) Permalink

altho there's one part where the melody totally sounds like she's about to launch into "what's up" by 4 non blondes. she doesn't go up on the last note in the line which saves it.

dope new song, would like to see it be a single. i wonder if she's gonna come with a new album soon while she's on this roll, or are they milking more singles out of Fame Monster?

― some dude, Saturday, 10 July 2010 15:58 (2 years ago) Permalink

yeah it's just very basic, with true soul

― janice (surm), Saturday, 10 July 2010 16:00 (2 years ago) Permalink

Ehh this one's alright. Pretty straightforward. She does mention it's not like the other songs on the album, so guessing it's gonna stand out stylistically kinda like "Speechless" does on The Fame Monster. ("Speechless" is a v. much better track, though.)

C/D: hipsters at 3 AM declaiming that all top 40 music is terrible because the performers don't write their own songs, then citing Lady Gaga as the first example, then arguing over to the extent to which this has to be read in light of the Jewish control of the media

at least three of those albums were untouchable to me in my early years.

1,5,& 6 if you're asking.

"telephone" takes place a couple hours before "just dance", right?

You can tell which LG album songs will be released as singles by the stutter ratio ('future love' asides due to foul language ('I want a f-f-f-f-future man, I wanna f-fuck you as hard as I can.').)

My 6 year old cousin just overheard my sister playing Lady Gaga and she came asking her "why does she stutter in all her songs? Does she have a problem?" Never really thought about it but:

Just Dance: Just, j-j-just dance
Pokerface: po-po-po-poker face po-po-poker face
Paparazzi: papa-paparazzi
Bad Romance: Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah! Roma-Roma-ma-ah! Ga-ga-ooh-la-la!
Telephone: I am sick and tired of my phone r-ringin.
Alejandro: Ale-alejandro Ale-alejandro

Monster: That boy is a monster, m-m-m-monster

what the hell does "sometimes i feel like i live in grand central station" mean?

― The Reverend, Wednesday, 22 September 2010 15:08 (2 years ago) Permalink

Grand Central Station = a crowded, public place. Being constantly bugged by the people calling her Telephone is as exhausting as if you lived in a subway terminus. She always feels like somebody's watching her, and she has no privacy.

Alternately, she feels like a homeless person but I'm not sure how that would fit with the premise of the song.

― Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 22 September 2010 15:15 (2 years ago) Permalink

she stutters in those songs because it's easier than coming up with lyrics to fill in the empty space. it's also annoyingly catchy and repetitive and elevates her songs to ear worm status.

― fan of puppetry (Spinspin Sugah), Wednesday, 22 September 2010 17:13 (2 years ago) Permalink

she also stutters in those songs because stuttering is a convenient way to throw off a melody, or a rhythm, just enough to make it interesting, and a little bit different. not saying this holds up when it is overused, just sayin.

pretty lame

― Dominique, Friday, 15 October 2010 15:18 (2 years ago) Permalink

not bad, but if this is a single, it's super slight, especially in the context of a career in which she released her previously slightest single, "Just Dance," two years ago and has already put out "Poker Face," "Bad Romance," "Telephone," and "Alejandro" since

― markers, Friday, 15 October 2010 15:24 (2 years ago) Permalink

dunno if it's a single

cool i'm glad we agree

― janice (surm), Friday, 15 October 2010 17:50 (2 years ago) Permalink

+ i assume it's a demo, so if it's actually a single it will likely be much grander

― truly blunted rhyme fiend (J0rdan S.), Friday, 15 October 2010 17:57 (2 years ago) Permalink

this + "you and I" is a promising 1-2 punch for me

― janice (surm), Friday, 15 October 2010 18:16 (2 years ago) Permalink

maybe even very promising

― janice (surm), Friday, 15 October 2010 18:18 (2 years ago) Permalink

This is a pretty old song though. She didn't write it ("Like A Virgin" autor Billy Steinberg did) and it's either a several year old demo that Gaga sings on (or made to sound like her to get her to sing it).

― Stockhausen's Helicopter Quartet (Elvis Telecom), Friday, 15 October 2010 19:32 (2 years ago) Permalink

that's funny, i was just thinking about Billy Steinberg yesterday, while listening to "how do i make you", wondering what he's been up to all these years since he was a bit of a hit factory. [his family owns huge grape farms in Thermal (Calif.) and i actually grew up down the street from his house (in palm springs)]
