Bullshit. I guess you'll readily ignore all the other artists she's similar to, but be quick to say everything from the way Gaga walks to the way she breathes is a Madonna facsimilie. Let's go to school on this issue, shall we...
Gaga and Janet
Gaga and Tori Amos
Gaga and Grace
Gaga and Cyndi
Gaga and Madonna
Gaga and Elton
Gaga and Dale Bozzio (they're practically twins)
Hell, for my money, I'd say she's more like Elton John in a dress (an oxymoron, but you get my drift) and Grace than Madonna. Sure they're both Italian bleach blondes with a thing for crucifixes, but that's about it. As I said, Madonna has done some wild shit in her day, but coming out on stage in an egg, wearing 10-foot platforms and wearing crazy sunglasses while playing an extravagant piano she has never done. This bullshit about Gaga being a walking, talking, breathing Madonna clone is tired, and it's about as true as saying Britney is a Madonna clone (when we all know that child is basically Janet 2.0). Gaga is all of these artists pictured above, and yet she's uniquely herself. That's what makes her such a force in pop music, and that is why the haters as well as the fans will guarantee her a spot with the greats in the future.

People who don't "get it" should spend more time paying attention to the music and the performance rather than dissecting why she's so terrible. Whether you buy her records or incessantly bring up her failures (or what you perceive to be her shortcomings), she still has realty on your tongue and in your mind. She wins, in the end. | |

The only reason these gaga threads go on n on cause its fun to poke sean and spin with a stick and watch them overreact time n time again. [Edited 5/6/11 13:23pm] The Most Important Thing In Life Is Sincerity....Once You Can Fake That, You Can Fake Anything. | |

I dunno about Sean, but I find it amusing to continually dispel the sheeple lies and drama up in these threads.
It's like watching a buncha chickens with their heads cut off, cluck-clucking about 10 million dollar videos and which teen pop queen last stole Madonna's bustier. | |

Aww, and we love you too, sweets. Truth is, they go on and on because she's on the top of the pop culture heap right now. Her fans (and particularly her detractors) have put her right there. "Get up off that grey line" | |

She is been influenced by a lot of artists. Not only Madonna. I'm a huge Grace Jones fan, and I see sometimes in her outfits almost a completely rip off.(sorry. I love Gaga but it's the truth.. She is been influenced in her style and music by so many people... I think she is influenced by Nina Hagen as well... look at the make-up and the outfits.. | |

It's just too much for me. And what she's doing is her choice and I hope she doesn't stop for anyone. And she won't, because she's got that level of confidence. Feh. | |

I'm really just excited to see what kind of music and videos she's putting out years from now when she's older and she's over all the stunts and trying to be shocking. I have the feeling she's got it in her to produce some damn good stuff. "I don't think you'd do well in captivity." - random person's comment to me the other day | |

Thriller took elements from musicals like West Side Story and made them modern (for that time), and really cranked music videos up a notch.
It was also an important foretelling of what MJ was going to end up looking like in real life after the release of Bad. You're a real fucker.

True! the fact Alej also helps but let's hope he doesn't read this. Any who but yes opinions are opinions and i never freak out if anyone say's they don't like Prince or MJ or Van Halen there's no point Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener
