Settled down at last and very happy.
Re: Lady Gaga
I also saw Pink's concert and she was excellent. She is very popular here in Australia.

1. Lady Gaga is hot, I'll grant you that. Her videos offer great visuals (other than the appearance of that heifer Beyonce of course).
2. When I listen to her music, however, it sounds to me like the standard light hiphop/dance pop a la Britney Spears and Beyonce that dominates the pop charts these days. It has nothing in common with black metal and there's nothing edgy about it at all. She's just another pop diva. Chrissie Hynde, Joan Jett, Deborah Harry or Siouxsie she's not. As a result, I don't understand why you like her.
3. Is Lady Gaga very much like Pink, the other new name I hear mentioned a lot these days?
am I the only one that thinks she is not hot at all?... I don't understand the attraction to her
as for music... ehh.. she is like Nickleback... So average and indifferent feeling that it's for people that don't even like music(magic's going to come kick my butt for that comment)
Pink... she's at least a bit different, and doing something that wasn't necessarily done before... Ga Ga(who's name I can not stand at all.. nothing about her appeals to me) is doing nothing new, she isn't even making a mockery of the old, she just tries to be different for the sake of being different IMO
and if I hear Bad Romance one more time.. heads will roll
I will give her one thing, one solitary positive thing I can find with her.... Poker Face is catchy as hell, but I will never listen to it by choice.. usually I'm a sucker for the catchy stuff, but not this one
I'm done, you all can go back to having your fun
Eberg said:...it's for people that don't even like music....
I agree. It's for the crowd that turns on hit radio stations for background music but never buys any recorded music. But if you ask them what kind of music they like, they'll say "Oh, all kinds!" Then when you play them something a bit edgy that gets no radio play, they won't like it and will then say "Well anything but that". What they mean of course when they say they like all kinds of music is they like only what hits the charts - meaning they're not really into music. If you ask them what kind of stereo/sound equipment they have, they'll say "None really. I mostly just watch TV." Then after you smack them in the head they whine.

Agreed! Very creative! Not personally a Beyonce fan either!

Fair enough because you said "It sounds to me!" When we don't like a genre sounds tend to blend together out of indifference IMO! What I disagree with is why someone can't like a poppy dance artist and edgy metal at the same time. We only have one mood or taste Foxhound? I don't get the comparison! Plus, if she was just another pop diva we wouldn't be talking about her right now.

Nope! I think she's fugly personally but she has ambition and guts which is attractive.

Nickelback was fresh for the scene when they first came out. So is Lady Gaga and we'll she if she stays the same like Nickelback did!

Love Bad Romance! My favorite yet! pink came out when Britney, Christina was already big. Lady Gaga came out when pop was stale and she gave it a much needed enema! There's no such thing as different just to be different. At least, it can't be proven. Nothing's new right? But she was fresh at the time which is just as good!
I will give her one thing, one solitary positive thing I can find with her.... Poker Face is catchy as hell, but I will never listen to it by choice.. usually I'm a sucker for the catchy stuff, but not this one
Agreed! Still catchy!

I agree completely that the people who say they listen to everything are most often douchebags who listen to essentially nothing and think all of music is comprised of pop, rap, rock and country

Hey I listen to everything... But I always say now that I listen to all genres.
My proof is anyone that's been over and sifted through my well kept and well organized CD collection of about 5,000 and growing.
It' an A-Z that boggles most people's minds...there is pop in there, but there is alot more of the "Who are these guys?" type of titles.
I like Slayer & Dimmu Borgir also and own collections by both acts...but IMO they are mainstream bands. But that doesn't make them bad.
