googoo for gaga puffs

Downloaded The Fame Monster last night. Been listening to it more or less on loopsince about noon, with special attention paid to "Bad Romance" and "Teeth."



The terrifying thing about her isn't so much that she appears to be batshit insane (I'm inclined to agree that it's a calculated insanity, not an actual one). It's the fact that under the batshit insanity, the woman is pretty fiercely talented.

Also, not everyone can get away with stalking across a room wearing an entire polar bear for a coat.

Okay, I need a mashup of that with this. Both song and video. Somebody get on that, kay?

you know, if you cross Manson with Madonna with Bowie, I think you might indeed end up with Gaga. Excellent observation.

I want Manson and Gaga to have horrifyingly beautiful post-human babies together.

And after they teach the kids how to walk, how funny will that be when they get to kindergarten? Schools 'll keep testing them for palsy.

Their kids would never walk - they'd be carried everywhere on a litter by midgets.

You're right. Also, they'd need autotune if they were going to say anything in anything but a monotone.

I'm actually surprised to discover that Gaga has a decent set of pipes on her (there's an acoustic video of her singing Poker Face while playing piano (with her feet, because it wasn't freaky enough to use hands I guess). Marilyn's not good for much but the sinister whispering and the shouty though, you're right.

That's the thing that sticks in my craw. She DOES. She really doesn't need that crutch. I realize that autotune has gone beyond a "fix-it" tool and is now a key style element in modern pop, but so help me I'm sick to death of that sound.

The foot playing is because she needs an extra hand and why the hell hire someone to play only a few notes next to you.

you know they'd just grow up to be the most boring republicans ever, right? also that kid would have NOSE and NARROW FACE issues like whoa.

Yes just discovered Lady Gaga about a week ago or so. Damn...some of her music videos from her latest album are amazing. I love the costumes. Have you seen the music video for Paparazzi?

Whoa. I can't tell what creeps me out the most about her--she seems to have at least three different faces, depending on what kind of makeup she's wearing and the lighting of the scene. It's either that, or the obsession with face prosthetics.

That said, I am totally in agreement with you that the polar bear coat is made of awesome.

I think the part of this that really cracks me up is all of the dancers strutting around looking like a BDSM/ Where The Wild Things Are mashup. Assless pleather chaps + well beloved children's book = chart smashing success. Who knew?
