*shrugs*

Who knows, but my husband, who doen't notice a thing, said last night during the song, "That sounds just like EXPRESS YOURSELF"

I think this can only be settled by a Glee mashup.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

I just heard GaGa's next song. It's called "Pose". It's really cool. It goes:

It doesn't matter if your Christians or Jews
Put on your pose clothes and you'll be Cruise
Pose, pose, pose

Jolie, Aniston, took their cue
Brad Pitt, we like you
Fellows that were into looking
Ladies who were only hooking
Pose, pose, pose

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

I thought the same thing! I love Lady Gaga--LOVE her--but WTF? It's a good song, but "Express Yourself" was better.

God, Madonna was stunning in that photo. Once upon a time she was so luscious and gorgeous and feminine.

On first hearing, I thought, 'Oh dear...does she know just how much of an 'homage' this is?'

After seeing the performance last night, I think she knew exactly what she was doing. I think she is an extremely referential artist, going to the well of 80's pop and seeing if she can spin it with something that makes it relevant to today.

It may bug people, but, personally, I don't have a problem with it.

Just so we're all clear, this thread is also an homage to another thread.

I love the song and also have no problem with it.

I JUST read through that other thread after I posted here.

Holy SH*Tballs, that was some good reading! Some deer-ly good reading!

I don't know - she's being pretty covert about it all . . .

Well, at least she didn't get out of that egg last night wearing Bjorks swan dress...

Oh I'm always up for a good book/cd burning, Erik!

I just enjoy the self righteous atmosphere of those bonfires. My feelings about the content being burned is secondary.

Why, just last week I attended a "Finishhing The Hat" burning organized by Arthur Laurents and I love Sondheim.

Best chunk of Grammy live blogging from the Village Voice:

TB: Ricky Martin introducing Gaga is a little on-the-nose, huh?
RD: She's not subtle.
TB: Gotta say, this song is dope as f---. More songs should blatantly bite "Express Yourself".
RD: Agreed. It's like "Xpress" (Justice Remix). Not mad.
TB: Bridget reports that the side-ponytail was Madonna's hair when she did "Express Yourself", so hair homage.
RD: Good catch. People who say this song is just a rip-off don't really deserve Gaga.
TB: Voguing back-up dancers!
RD: Phantom of the Gaga FTW. Blown Madonna guest shot opportunity though.

Every single Gaga releases is burning up the charts and yet I hear from songanddanceman that there's a borderline in the gay community with members on one side whose hearts are frozen in regards to the Gaga. Gaga seems to me to be a lot like Cher, she lives to tell the truth, to be as forthcoming and honest and no BS as possible.

She's on Leno right now and stated that she got an email from Madonna and her people sending their love & support for the single/

Well, Madonna's a known thief in her own right, so it would be rather hypocritical of her to sue and it would start a bunch of piggyback lawsuits. The e-mail was probably something more like "You win this round, @ssholes, but 'Poker Face' is OURS next time Madge reinvents herself."

Oh, please! If Cher had recorded "Born This Way" the gays would never stop masturbating over it like monkeys.
