great tune - this is actually the 1st time I can see her face, she is quite pretty too |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: northeastern CT/central Mass | | | No one will probably agree with me on this, but the stuff she's doing now is better. More crafted, more polished. A famous writer -- was it Faulkner? -- once said that a young writer has to write about two hundred thousand words of "garbage" out of his system before he finds his voice. This video -- as accomplished as the singing, playing, and overall musicianship is -- shows an artist still not quite at home with herself. She's still writing her way to the good stuff to come (on "The Fame" and "The Fame Monster").
Another thing I think of is this quote from Rossini -- "I wouldn't have been a good Mozart, but I don't think I'm a bad Rossini." That is, Stefani Germanotta would never have been a good Alicia Keys (or Nina Simone, or Carly Simon, or whoever she's trying to be here) but she is an amazing Lady Gaga.

Excellent performance, indeed......Too bad "they" got to her. Of course she might never have slammed it so big without "them". I, too, prefer Stephani over LGG, as well.

My gut feeling is that most stars have some real ability. The business is way too competitive to get noticed without bringing something to the table.

I can sum up my only explanation of why she would favor what she does now over what she did then, in two words.
SELL OUT.
/thread...in my opinion she doesn't even deserved to be mentioned on TB.
