She has some very good songs, and, if you listen to the ones that aren't big hits, a good voice. I like her. Sure, her costumes are over the top. I remember when people dismissed Elton John with his wacky outfits. Not saying GaGa is of that caliber, she's only done a couple albums so time hasn't had a chance to tell.

GaGa is almost the only current musician/singer that my 14 y/o daughter likes. (For reference, her most-played iPod list currently is Hendrix, the Doors, John Mayer, and David Bowie. She's going through a rock phase I suppose.). However, she (daughter) is disappointed at her (GaGa's) latest single, feeling it is a rip-off of Madonna's ''Express Yourself''.
