I have suddenly gained a new appreciation for Lady Gaga. I was a fan of her music, but I knew that she was always kind of weird. Her lyrics were kind of weird too. Like that song where she sings about taking a ride on someone’s pogo stick. Wow. Plus her costumes. She has some pretty crazy outfits and after seeing her performance at the VMA’s, she has definitely kept my vote as being weird, but the one thing I did notice was the biggest thing ever. She sings live!!! No one sings live anymore and to add to that, she’s freaking good. She dances, sings, and plays piano. She is super talented.
She was even on Ellen and she sang live and played the piano at the same time. Granted she stood on the piano bench and did weird stuff while she did it, but that’s just her style I guess.
Style and weirdness aside, she has talent. I wish people would show it more. Like Katy Perry for example. That girl can sing and play guitar, but none of her songs portray her talent.
The one thing Lady Gaga is not allowed to do is talk though. She sounds like she is 12 years old. She has this baby voice, but she has a powerful singing voice and this crazy style. To be honest, I almost anticipated her having an accent because not many Americans are willing to think outside the box like she does. But nope, she is all American with a tiny little voice. Check it out for yourself.
I have to admit that I do find her music awfully catchy, and I appreciate her real talent. But the weird is just TOO weird for me. I will keep listening to her music, but I think buying tickets to a concert is still out of my comfort zone ...
ReplyDeleteYay for crazy lyrics, too. Poker faces, disco sticks and paparazzi? "Creative" is just Latin for "bizarre."
Yeah, I'm gonna have to say that the craziness of her has kept me away from actually listing to any of her music and her music videos are just down right strange.
ReplyDeleteHowever, if you really think she's good under all the crazy I might be willing to give her anther try though.
