Better than the original!!

I don't get the "Lady Gaga" thing. I guess she's the modern interpretation of Boy George, Prince, etc....

I am saying it is hilarious, prior to viewing it. Maybe not as funny as it would be if I were more familiar with Ms Germanotta's work, but we shall see, have to finish this Marx Bros

The video linked, is a dude in drag, however that is NOT lady Gaga.


She is by no means normal, but still does not deserve the criticism some of you give her. She is a decent musician, and does what she wants, when she wants... There is a lot to be said for that....


Geez open your narrow minds.... Go look up Amanda Palmer....

Although I don't dig Gaga, I've sen her piano work. She's decent.
My GF's kid is gaga about Gaga though. I don't think he gets what good music is about. :confused

I have never really heard her play but I've heard that she is good.
Her music does absolutely nothing for me except that it makes me change the channel. Don't like it.

About her being a hype... Being filthy rich and acting and dressing like an idiot does not merit any respect IMO. And she's certainly not the first to do it.

i think musically, she's extremely talented. but i also think she's bat **** insane. she's got some major credit to her resume before becoming "lady gaga." and even if you dont like her music, you can't deny the amount of hits she's had in the last 2 years.

Or maybe I really need to open my eyes and not read every other word.

Never mind.

Believe it may be a bit deeper than that. Scuttlebutt is that she has both sets of equipment onboard. I could care less but she/he/it is strange. Rich but strange...

That's Wierd Al's head grafted onto an unknown female body, via CGI. I think the video is a really funny parody, but have no opinion on lady gaga. It's just not my taste in music.

And Sidney, lighten up!
