Lady Gaga needs her own thread

the bridge to "monster" is so amazing - "he ate my heart and then he ate my braaaain"

^^^^^^

Best song on the album.

i love this, i think its a really good example of her like actually transcending the influence (ie ace of base here) instead of just blindly copping moves

Monster is 1 of my favorite songs of the decade, easy.

i don't mind the Di reference. i do love Princess Diana for a variety of reasons, none of them having to do with her prevalence as a gay icon.

(i actually didn't even realize she was a gay icon ...)

i don't get whats so daring about Teeth, sounds like an xtina joint

lex, pretty sure that's one of those uk/us divide things

"Teeth" totally sounds like Xtina, but it gets away with it cause it sounds like a song Xtina would never do.

Really sounds more like B. Jaxx with Xtina vocals or something.

in tales of the city all the SF gays are crushing hard on lady Di but i suppose that is ancient history?

I kinda get the impression most ppl in the US stopped thinking about her once that Elton joint slipped off the charts

i guess we're not the right generation but i think she had an effect on an older gen. of phags maybe

yeah mebbe

but LG is our age, so

also I have never noticed the Princess Di ref

yeah i mean lex has this major thing abt anything ever being a gay icon anyway so

Really sounds more like B. Jaxx with Xtina vocals or something.

OTM.

She was at the ballgame I attended yesterday, but I couldn't get into her box.

DON'T CALL MY NAME, DON'T CALL MY NAME

I'M NOT YOUR BABE, I'M NOT YOUR BABE

fernando

lol morbs

you know that i love you boy
hot like mexico enjoys

love the filter sweep under ^^^

"hot like mexico enjoys" is awkward as fuck

and then it all just connects after that in a moment of fundamental rightness before it launches into the chorus

xp yeah it is, but I love it

Teddy Riley produced "Teeth" (!)

than I DID watch it again and I had a realisation, that the whole video is about how she can't have sex with gay men even though she really wants to, and then she compares that to men in the military and to the catholic church and the whole thing is one long impossible love letter and now I kind of love it

Love this take on the video clip.

Really sounds more like B. Jaxx with Xtina vocals or something.

OTM.

naw

alejandro is dope though.

Isn't it "hot like mexico, rejoyce"?

(x-post)

yes

i think " half-inspired " about sums it up for me regarding alejandro

Steven Klein did an excellent job directing. Could the video also be a tribute to Alexander McQueen? The clip has his signature creepy/beautiful aesthetic that's reminiscent of much of his past collections. Then there's the funeral sequence, name of the song, etc.

No way, I've probably played this song 100 times!

:D

safe estimate for me, too

New song. Follows Speechless down the 70s Elton + Queen + rock'n'roll path. It's a good look for her. Underneath all the image, she really does have her fundamentals down pat.

Here she is at John Lennon's piano:

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

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

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.
