Stefani Germanotta is her real name. From an upper middle class family in New York. She has been playing piano and singing since she was 4 years old. She is a talented musician and songwriter,and a carefully crafted pop artist. Love her or hate her,she's a household name,and has gotten a huge reaction from the world as a whole. I think she's great.

Got her stage name from Queen's Radio Gaga. I've listened to a few of her songs on YT.

She credits Freddie Mercury as an early inspiration, and I believe his influence can be heard in her singing.

She's a talent, and time will tell if she has what it takes to eclipse Mariah Carey's record 18 #1 hit's.

theres something very nice about this song. kinda wonder how many teenage girls have listened to this song... and gave it a try. seeing if they like tasting another girls cherry lipstick... the lyrics these days in pop music cover all the bases very well.

I can't believe I just read this entire thread. Five minutes of my life I'll never get back.

Yeah, the five minutes you won't get back, but at least your Geezer Card is still intact

it may be gay, but for some of us here we have teenage children. as this is the case, music is listened to very frequently. so it does not fall under the true gay catagory, as a old foegey might choose to theorise.

There are teenagers living in my house too, but they damn sure don't rule the roost. If I catch them listening to something inappropriate I'll break their ears off...and they know it.

This is still a very gay thread.

Hey! The only reason I posted on this admittedly gay thread was because I didn't want to leave doc swinging in the wind after bd dogged on the subject. It just seemed the right thing to do. Well, that and the fact my 15 yr old Granddaughter likes her a lot so I was forced to listen to some of GaGa's tunes last time she was up.
Check my avatar - could you 'no' to that face if she asked you to listen to her fave singer?

Shock and awe.....
The meat dress.

No they won't.

I guess if being 35 makes me an old geezer, then you're the one who should REALLY be counting your minutes.

She makes raw meat look good. Have to give her that.

OK, maybe not Journeyman Geezer, but I'm thinkin' Geezer Apprentice.
Nothin' wrong with that.

Doc never ceases to amaze me....a Gaga thread? I didn't care for her at first, didn't listen to her music or watch her on TV; but for some weird reason I like her now and am actually looking forward to her new music to see if she is just a flash in the pan or an artist that continues to grow and get better....I'm betting on the latter. Still can't decide if she's hot or not...

The meat dress was classic...I think that's a flank steak on her head.

Prolly ticked off a lot of PETA folks.

She has a few catchy tunes but I don't see her as that talented a singer. I feel she has a lot of talent in marketing though.
When you get down to it, talent is in the ears of the beholder.

This exchange between Grandpa stam and Oregoian - "a gay thread that proves that people will argue about...
.....anything."

'No they won't'

This whole thread was worth it for that exchange. I'm still cracking up about it......
