Personally, I don't find Gaga to be any worse than anything else out there on the commercial XM stations I'm often forced to endure, and actually miles more bearable than your garden variety emo bands. That said, music is generally the first line of discussion regarding her--which, considering she is named after one of the more ridiculous songs by Queen, should not come as any surprise.TJWoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00312890704167853988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-10958597840992533082010-02-19T17:03:28.463-05:002010-02-19T17:03:28.463-05:00Well, apparently we have reached concensus!

Fake Madonna, only even worse than the original.

Leon Russell and supposedly the record will be out this year. <br /><br />I've had no difficulty avoiding Gaga Woman, outside of knowing her name I know nothing about her or her music. I will say that Madonna has produced absolutely nothing of cultural value, ever. I assume Gaga is on the same page, but will be happy to be surprised some day. Not holding my breath.<br /><br />I do like that Scissors Sisters song "Filthy Gorgeous".
