Let's face it, 80% of the people on these boards know squat about music and have dreadful, childish taste. They just eat up whatever top 40 radio feeds them and are too lazy to even explore other stuff. THen, with the limited artists they support, they use arguments like sales and airplay to fight against each other. And this is the story of ATRL.

But I'm not here for that. I'm here for the 20% who have a brain here. You know who you are

Heh. I don't even necessarily disagree, but this still makes me roll my eyes.

Let's go back to obsessively bashing Katy Perry. That's far more interesting, innit?

Musically her songs aren't too different from the others (she has to be catchy and sell), but lyrically it's way better than just "shots shot shots shots shots shots"

Yeah I will say that Bad Romance is arguably one of the best pop records of all time. Maybe it's premature to say it, but I have no doubt that in 10 years it will be seen as such. I mean, even her haters or people who hate pop music recognize the brilliance of that melody.

It's one of those rare pop events, like Britney's Toxic.

This. Paparazzi actually has some mysterious lyrics, which I love.

Shadow is burnt
Yellow dance in return
My lashes are dry
Purple teardrops I cry

I do love her mysterious lyrics. I've noticed listening to the radio that the lyrics are mostly very straightforward. Gaga's lyrics are a bit of a puzzle...I'm not sure half of what she says even in a simple song like Just Dance. The same even goes for her tweets.

I have always had the hardest time understanding anything she said in Paparazzi. Like, as in her diction. All her other songs I am able to understand well except for that. For the longest time (since August 2008 to about June 2010) I thought, In Paparazzi, she was saying "Baby you'll be famous, jynx, you tell her til you love me".

I think Edge Of Glory will be ground-breaking.

The closest Gaga's got to ground-breaking is Bad Romance.
The dark mono-tone sound to her vocals that really define the dark German generic yet edgy bassline/percussion. In addition, the creepy raspy organ during the epic bridge leading into the verse.

It was so great. Perfect pop equation.

But i think Poker Face was more purposely amazing. But not ground-breaking.

What about

Run, run her kiss is a vampire grin. Moonlight's away while she's howling at him.

And all those flames that burn before him, now he's gotta fire fight, gotta cool the bad.

Edge of Glory gives me a "Changing Skies" vibe in terms of sound.

Only Gaga could turn a Hitchcock reference into a euphemism for anal.

Nope, those are Hitchcock movies.

The Kubrick shout-out is in Dance in the Dark.

I've never been able to decide what this means. I mean, I get that it is the image of GaGa being werewolf and expressing her desire for him, but does the moonlight being away signify how crazy he makes her?

Oops, corrected!!! This is so embarrassing...

Well i think in terms of music Gaga is pretty much like the others, but i mean her lyrics is what distinguish her, imo.

A brazilian singer (Pitty), once said in one onterview : It`s so hard to find music that has a deep message nowardays (of course she`s probably the one who has the most meaninful songs). and that`s what i feel about Gaga and in this case Pitty and the reason why i stan for both so bad. They say something in her music.

Speaking of DITD, the Vogue reference (using famous females who suffered under the male gaze) is nothing short of inspired.
