we live in a strange & different world when the phrase "real deal" is used to describe lady gaga

It's only used because she's not cute.

Her songs still sound like Dr. Luke concoctions anyway, so does it really matter whether she writes them or not?

makeitpop, Wednesday, 10 June 2009 21:45 (seventeen years ago)

if you are trying to troll geir you probably want to talk about melody in there somewhere too

AMYL NATHRAKH (jjjusten), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 21:47 (seventeen years ago)

I think it does, to some people...

All of her melodies are boring shit!

stepwise motion - repeated note - descending arpeggio - stupid spoken word bullshit that is supposed to be "arty" - REPEAT

1899 Horsey Horseless (HI DERE), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 21:49 (seventeen years ago)

"Lets Dance" is good.

touch my bum / this is life (daavid), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 21:51 (seventeen years ago)

oops, I meant "Just Dance".

'Just Dance' may have captured your fancy right now but you will never remember it in the future.

"hipster" may be the most misused word in the english language, after "irony".

GIS Lady Gaga and I get "Related searches: lady gaga camel toe"

That's what makes it a good pop song.

i've been working towards this kind of total disconnection for a few years, but i've managed with no effort at all not to hear lady gaga. im barely aware of who she is.

FREE DOM AND ETHAN (special guest stars mark bronson), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:01 (seventeen years ago)

oh boy i do not like that poker face song one bit

AMYL NATHRAKH (jjjusten), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:01 (seventeen years ago)

and as a leading hipster im fine with her doing her thing, making bake or whatever. if people want to listen to her, more power to her elbow.

FREE DOM AND ETHAN (special guest stars mark bronson), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:02 (seventeen years ago)

That's what makes it a good pop song.

^^^is this the ultimate poptimist challops or what

Kitchen Paper Towel (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:03 (seventeen years ago)

this song is so GREAT because it is SO BAD!

Kitchen Paper Towel (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:03 (seventeen years ago)

i always get this sort of dumbed down radio friendly version of peaches vibe from this stuff

AMYL NATHRAKH (jjjusten), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:05 (seventeen years ago)

yeah thats right PEACHES but DUMBER

AMYL NATHRAKH (jjjusten), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:05 (seventeen years ago)

oh no you didnt

suggestzybandias (jim), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:05 (seventeen years ago)

Poker Face makes me think of Liquor In The Front, Poker In The Rear, a terrible old joke that was once the title of a Rev. Horton Heat album.

i like that a troll thread is going for the century in under 2 hours.

suggestzybandias (jim), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:07 (seventeen years ago)

is this what we've become?

suggestzybandias (jim), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:07 (seventeen years ago)

kind of mystified by the hatred lady gaga inspires but i want to remind everybody that the more u hate her and the more vocal about that hate u are, the more fuel you are adding to the fire of the fools who want to believe shes transgressive in some kind of transcendently campy way

rip dom passantino 3/5/09 never forget (max), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:08 (seventeen years ago)

britney is so much more accepted by the discerning crowd.

if it weren't for the lack of brit slang crap i would swear makeitpop was from england, yes THAT weirdly clueless and out of touch

surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:08 (seventeen years ago)

no one fucking likes lady gaga

i think this is otm

yeah good pop songs aren't memorable, everyone knows that

well i mean what hipster movement is this thread about exactly? if anything lady gaga has inspired a bunch of tl;dr bullshit on ILX (see: that one thread about the vacuousness of pop or whatever) about how terrible she is, it's the gays and the mainstream fans that seem to be building her up the most.

ti's girl on the outside (musically), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:11 (seventeen years ago)

we're through the looking glass here people

Kitchen Paper Towel (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:11 (seventeen years ago)

i don't think the gays are that powerful

those gays... they used to have such good taste

Kitchen Paper Towel (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:13 (seventeen years ago)

well i mean what hipster movement is this thread about exactly?

i believe it is the rolling stone hipster demographic

i dunno with all that working out you'd think gays could bench quite a bit

If it helps, my working definition of hipster would be: people who fancy themselves as smart and cool.

makeitpop, Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:15 (seventeen years ago)

^^^ confirmed britisher sighting!

suggestzybandias (jim), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:16 (seventeen years ago)

fancy!

suggestzybandias (jim), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:16 (seventeen years ago)

oh no maybe not

suggestzybandias (jim), Wednesday, 10 June 2009 22:16 (seventeen years ago)

no way hipsters are always snogging a bag of crisps in their anorak and what ho
