If Lady Gaga is being compared to PRINCE, then does that MAKE LADY GAGA

The female modern day mozart?



If a = b and b = c then a = c. This means if Lady Gaga is
the female version of Prince and Prince is the modern day
Mozart, Lady Gaga is the female modern day Mozart.


For such a short period of time in her career she has made
an enormous splash. She's openned up for Barack Obama, arguably
the most powerful ineffective one-time super-majority President
in the world behind Pat Robertson and
Rush Limbaugh. Moreover, Lady Gaga has pushed the envelope
on musical content. Where Kenny Rogers only hinted at a Gambling
game (in the song "The Gambler"), he never mentions what game
he's playing. He only coyly hints at the fact that it's poker.
Lady Gaga pushed the envelope and said the word "Poker" where
Kenny wasn't brave enough to.

Like Madonna and Britney before her, She's incorporated elements
of hip hop into her music. However, she's taken the formula even
one amazing leap further by doing it and singing in key.

When the big 5 companies crumble under the pressure of changes
in the musical landscape, when Prince's career finally succumbs
to self-implosion in the name of the purple and gold, and when
The Olson twins finally land on Celebrity Fit Club looking like
Kelly Labrock of Wierd Science fame, there will still be Lady
Gaga.

Anyways, just putting it out there.

When reading the first two lines, I nearly dropped my coffee mug.

It would probably have to be dealt logically in a bit more sophisticated manner than that. wink

People calling Prince the modern day Mozart is due to a set of attributes that the two individuals and their musical works have shared. If Lady Gaga could be said to have those same attributes to her, then I guess it could be reasonable to make such a statement regarding her as well. However, if Lady Gaga shares for the most part a different set of attributes with Prince and those do not apply to Mozart on his part, then the logical conclusion you're proposing in this case is invalid.

I'm getting a sense here that folks don't think she's quite the
modern day Mozart, but perhaps more of a Beethoven or Brahms.

You can see where Lady Gaga has intimidated Madonna into singer better, lately.





Now if only Janet could sing better, but alas--Lady Gaga is a talented woman--not a miracle worker.

hm. Except she actually writes and produces her material(BIG HITS...no matter what you personally think of the songs)...and others (as opposed to Madonna who PAYS people to get her name on the songs). Not exactly the same - right? Also that puts here above ALL of Princes side projects since Prince wrote most of that. Amazing how narrow minded people are about music on the org. It's one thing not to LIKE something but to make uninformed statements just makes you sound ignorant.

Madonna really can not sing it seems she's getting worse with old age - no melody, no power. Even with her greatest album she sings terrible - i.e. Spanish eyes from LAP (although I really like that song)

At least Janet has a melodic and pleasant voice. Can you imagine Madonna singing ATAP?

Oh you want to go there, do you? Okay.
Fine. She gets a bit of a nod over Madonna because she can actually play an instrument.

Her voice is ASS.
And let me see if I've got this straight.
This broad shows up, wears outfits made out of Kermit the Frog puppets, singing about "disco-sticks" and "poker-faces" and is cutting-edge and the future of pop music.

Uh huh.

I have no love or hate for GaGa but does a hit song equate good? Macarena was a hit but it was hot garbage.

idk, any extreme fan kind of scares me. lol gaga's not a musical genius (at this point, at least, i wouldn't dare call her that, as there's not enough evidence - she writes good pop songs, yay for her), and prince isn't the be all and end all.

but you know what i think of all that lol hug

Too bad Madonna is tone deaf and can't sing.

As always, the gays are easily amused. So it's no surprise you consider Gaga immensely talented bored2
