it is! one time i actually found a lady gaga video on youtube that was an actual recording of a native american song for teeth, just not edited or pop-song’d at all. i can’t find it, but i’ve been looking for it!

I have been playing it over and over since it came out, and yes, we have to be correct on that hunch. We need to find out where she got her music from. It sounds like a familiar native too, it sounds like a pow wow I went to, I just can’t remember the song and place. If I could place it, this would be awesome!!!!!!

I liked Speechless a little more once I found out she had written it influenced at first not by a lover, but by her dad. He was sick and in the hospital. That made me at least give it a second listen.

“Prepare to bend over”? “Punished accordingly”?

It makes me nervous that you have a six year old and a wife, Brad the Dad! I hope that sort of thing isn’t something you’d like someone to say to them eh?

Also, it’s just pop music, you know?

Yo.
I am a musician. I am a music lover. I love Madonna, Michael Jackson, but also love Coltrane, Wes Montgomery, Louis Armstrong, Classical symphonic Orchestra recordings, Guns N Roses, AC/DC, Indigo Girls, Beach Boys, Living Colour, The Melvins, TOOL, and many many more.
I saw one Lady Gaga video, and then her SNL performance, and was excited to buy the album ‘The Fame Monster’ and share it with my children and my wife!
My wife warned me that she thought my judgement had flown the coop, but I persisted that GAGA struck me as an intelligent, empowering female, with great musical abilities, and that the album would show this.

Umm,
NO.
This album is absolutely one of the largest meltdown letdowns of the last three decades.
Nowhere in this album is there a sound that produces a reaction in me that says, ‘Wow, they put some effort into this.’
In fact,
My six-year old has created a plethora of more unique, talented, ear-loving catchy tunes with her radio-shack keyboard and her voice alone.

Lady Gaga,
you owe me one, big time,
and I’m not talking about sex, baby. My wife does that thing with me all day and all night for realz,
not with a damn disco stick- (whatever that is).

You best take this money,
fire every human involved in this album,
head to L.A. or even Kansas City,
find a bass player, a drummer, a guitar player,
and perhaps a synth-keyboard master,
get a new producer,
and write some songs with some real emotion.

You remind me of someone who has had their soul scared out of them,
and now only lives to prove to the world that
nothing much matters to you anymore.

You dont empower anyone or anything,
except your wallet.

And, Lady-
even in America- that will NOT BE GOOD ENOUGH
over the long haul.
I surmise all the males who ‘love’ her ‘album’(parenthesized because it has no musical qualities),
are all secretly pedophiles,
or worse.

If you dont own up to the community, Lady Gaga,
I suggest you find a new day job.

I am very disappointed in you,
we put a lot of faith in you,
that you would knock our socks off.

Instead,
you have pissed off the all-knowing consciousness,
and will be punished accordingly.
Prepare to bend over.

i really liked this album, and your review was awesome, but there’s something i’m wondering about the backing track for ‘Teeth’. i’ve looked at lots of reviews for this album, and NOBODY has mentioned it, but the backing track is traditional Native American music! i’m part Native American, so it’s weird to hear something like that, something quite personal to me in that song. but anyway, i’m just wondering if anybody knows where i can find information about the background track and who recorded it originally, who gave permission to use it, etc. because i know Lady GaGa’s fans are very important to her, i would like to know if she thought about what her Native American fans might think if she used a backing track like that, and if she didn’t think about that, i don’t know if i want to support her anymore. i know this is off-topic, but i haven’t found anything about this anywhere, and i don’t know where to ask about something like this. i’m not trying to make a big deal…i just thought the people posting on here seemed nice, and liked Lady GaGa, so i thought it would be a good place.

thanks for reading

so like, I can only speak for myself but I very vividly remember being at my friends bday party and her mom had games with prizes and I won an Ace of Base cassette tape and it was like the most exciting thing ever. I was probably… 8 and Lady Gaga & I are the same age and there is honestly no point to this comment at all except me telling that story because the Ace of Base influence thing made me think of it. I cant’ put coherent thoughts together today or ever.

Dancing to Telephone, in the car, really late, with friends, at an incomprehensible loudness, is my new favorite thing. Seriously, where’d Beyonce come from? She hit it hard! I surely hope we can see Carly and Caesar’s choreography. Love the review.
