did a side by side comparison of GaGa and Roisin Murphy videos last night, inspired by gin. GaGa's are so much more... American.
Roisin's videos are rediculous

I don't know why I ever had anything bad to say about "Bad Romance" on this thread

feels like Gaga's gone all the way from Vogue to Hanky Panky or something
not sure what you mean because Hanky Panky came straight after Vogue, so its the same timescale!

lol good point, i totally forgot Vogue was on the Dick Tracy soundtrack!

I think "Telephone" is a great song. For Rihanna, it represents probably her best ever single.

Depends on your definition of a pop star. The Beatles, for starters.
Madonna should never have made "Justify My Love" though. Still horrible and worthless crap.

The Beatles, for starters.
doubtful, but let's have your example (4 or more singles in a year all markedly different stylistically)?

sequence is different in the US tho (Keep It Together not a single in UK)

Shit just 1966 alone:
"Paperback Writer" / "Rain" · "Yellow Submarine" / "Eleanor Rigby"
― Adam Bruneau, Saturday, 13 March 2010 20:08 (fourteen years ago) link
How about 1968 these songs are all EXTREMELY different:
"Lady Madonna" / "The Inner Light" · "Hey Jude" / "Revolution"

Pretty sure some of those are double A sides.
Bad Romance is easily one of the best pop songs of the 2ks.

she looks pretty good in panties and bra, but I will challenge Gaga to a dance-off with one leg tied behind my back.

So what's all this I've been hearing about some Gaga video where she wears a jacket with GISM and DOOM patches? I have friends who listen to nothing but grindcore and harsh noise who are all pumped about Lady Gaga.

Yeah this just came up in my blog reader - t-shirts taking off Black Flag logo, mock up of Doom's Police Bastard EP etc:

I liked their dialogues much more than their song and dance routine
I agree that Gaga outclasses Beyonce in this video and I like unperson's idea that this collab was Gaga's idea, sort of her showing the world that Beyonce is two thousand and LATE

Speaking about the 'Telephone' video - which you can see here - Gaga revealed she was inspired by Tarantino when making the clip.
wow, really?

i believe they mean she literally got the idea from QT in a conversation she had w/ him
― some dude, Monday, 15 March 2010 14:15 (fourteen years ago) link
she can't dance, she can't act and she has those cold dead eyes but she has written some great songs (although, i don't think this is one of them). the thing that really irritates me about her is her complete lack of style, only a kind of desperation to have an effect and she's do anything to have some kind of impact. this is her at her most desperate - smoking cigarette shades? it doesn't even make any sense.

This isn't the first time someone in this thread has tried to make a case for Beyonce being passe while saying Gaga is NEW or really an original, and that's just silly.
― Cunga, Monday, 15 March 2010 16:05 (fourteen years ago) link
Beyonce's always been a touch weird, though, stuff like her outfits in the "Videophone" vid definitely feel like her trying to keep up w/ Gaga (although Gaga trying to sing on that beat and do B's dance moves comes off far worse), but stuff like the robot hand in "Single Ladies" was pre-Gaga
― some dude, Monday, 15 March 2010 16:07 (fourteen years ago) link
