Just listened to Lady Gaga's song Just Dance and Poker Face. She can sing really well. I like the music videos too. Very talented. Hope she does great in the US.

Am I the only one who didn't know Lady Gaga wrote "Elevator" from the new PCD album? I love that song so much, now I know why! Here's the link for you guys:

^I knew she wrote a song, I just didn't know which one. Lady GaGa is an awesome performer AND writer!

I LOVE Lady GaGa.
I just started listening to her a few days ago.
She's really amazing!
"Just Dance is amazing."

I just read this from some interview with Xtina:

What do you say to those on the Internet who are hinting that you borrowed Lady Gaga’s look?
You know, that’s funny that you mention that. This person [Lady Gaga] was just brought to my attention not too long ago. I’m not quite sure who this person is, to be honest. I don’t know if it is a man or a woman. I just wasn’t sure. I really don’t spend any time on the Internet, so I guess I live a little under a rock in that respect.


I don't know why, but I find it a bit rude. It's kind of obvious that Lady GaGa is a woman, and how she refers to her as "this person." Like she's a nobody or something. XD

Kaiouforever 18th November 2008 09:14 AM

Haha I think we discussed this a few pages back. I think Xtina just got a little defensive, but didn't mean to come off like that.

dddaiyamondo 18th November 2008 09:36 AM

I honestly don't understand why she'd try to attack Gaga. I mean, how is Xtina gonna front like she doesn't know who she is when her entire look for this album is based around ripping her off?

"I don’t know if it is a man or a woman."

Seriously? :rolleyes

♥ you! 19th November 2008 02:42 AM

I like how Xtina stans are starting to call her Lady Gargoyle :laugh

anyway I finally got around to hearing the album and it isn't that bad. I'm like, obsessed with Poker Face ATM. She should really focus her promo on Europe/Australia/Canada and just forget about the U.S. for now. If Just Dance and Poker Face weren't able to make much impact over there I don't think another song from her album can.

[taskin.ayu] 19th November 2008 12:22 PM

Yeah, the US isn't really receptive to this style of music I guess. I think she would do quite well in the UK though.

*Petit* 19th November 2008 01:43 PM

I think UK would be perfect for it too, allthough I Hear it quite a lot in Paris too. It's one of those songs that were made for europe I guess. Maybe it's a little too far out/glitzy for the US? I*d love to have this music be made popular in the US again though.. DIsco is not dead. :eviltongu:lech

Yeah it's a bit rude, but today you never know. Lady Gaga might be a group, a single lady or even a man. Her newest look is dfinetly a little too similar to gaga's though. =/

MemorialAddress 19th November 2008 09:44 PM

I guess the US just doesn't know how to appreciate good music :weep

Kaiouforever 20th November 2008 07:40 PM

Indeedy! She should focus on overseas promotion since she'll probably have a bigger impact there...even though I'm from the US and I love her :P

*Petit* 20th November 2008 10:07 PM

IN all fairness "Just dance" isen't THAT different from Rihanna's Disturbia, but Lady Gaga's image is like the embodiment of the image of eurotrash and the the rest of her music takes a very different approach in general even if the two songs are close in how they sound. So even if I guess the sound for that song could be right for teh US the whole package isent'.


I just love the lyrics though, they're really what clubbing is all about LOL. In her site she says she wants to bring back the carelessness of dance music in the 90s (eurodance) and to me that's a BIG +!

drewbilation 20th November 2008 11:54 PM

I don't think GaGa should give up on the US at all. in fact, "Just Dance" is currently no. 16 on the Hot 100, and she's at no. 9 on iTunes and still climbing.

edit~ I've just been told "Just Dance" is at no. 4 now!

kang daesung 21st November 2008 02:22 AM

I think Lady Gaga will start to become popular soon. It's gonna be a slow build, but I feel like it's going to really pay off soon! Too bad "Just Dance" is still getting attention when "Poker Face" will probably be all forgotten about :weep

Partino 21st November 2008 02:49 AM

drewbilation 21st November 2008 04:48 AM

Kaiouforever 21st November 2008 05:12 AM

How is "Just Dance" just NOW getting into the top 20?! I feel like it's been around so long...but at least she's finally getting more popular!

kang daesung 21st November 2008 07:19 AM

^I know right? I remember hearing the song in the clubs in like June!
