Actually the Lady Gaga analogy is a little bit deeper. Lady Gaga is very good musician, but she intentionally pursues money/fame/attention/whatever instead of originality/art/excellence.
- coldtea 13y ago>Lady Gaga is very good musician Compared to what? Beethoven? Charles Mingus? That she can produce some shitty pop tune to be forgotten in a few months after release doesn't indicate much.
- toyg 13y agoShe is classically trained and went to a good school. That sets her apart from the overwhelming majority of contemporary pop acts, whose training is mostly from karaoke pub competitions. She's no Beethoven, but she might have been; that's the point.

- smoyer 13y agoSo true ... I don't really appreciate her current music (I mean like Brahms or Mozart), but she was so bluesy in the NYU talent show (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM51qOpwcIM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM51qOpwcIM). I could listen to music like that all day.
