I don't understand why it's there, for me every single song on the album is fantastic, but that. I can't bloody listen to it.

I think Alejandro is good enough to be a single. It's one of my favorites on the album, so happy I could die is the only one I don't care for.

Hell if you follow Gaadailys Twitter, a fan bought Telephone 139 times on iTunes to bump it up in the charts.

Toaster Beef posted:Even as an avid Gaga lover I have to say ya'all are totally wrong about Pomplamoose To be fair, September was one of the few covers that I enjoyed from Pomplamoose. Everything else is just pretentious and boring and monotonous. However, the chick reminds me of a cuter Inara George.

It's just like how people eventually come around to liking Gaga.

Yeah the voice can seem out of place and not very fun sometimes and the constant doe eyes are a bit much but I have to say over all that they are putting it down and those are some pretty fun arrangements. I feel like I'm going to regret saying this but off the top of my head they remind me of Stereo Lab. I like the Aerosmith "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" the best: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmENgrVOwgA&feature=PlayList&p=DE53A978215C0424&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=9 Also put me down for: 1. "Alejandro" is OK, not my favorite but I can enjoy it. 2. "So Happy I Could Die" is my favorite Gaga song too. After "Bad Romance" that song is what initially got me listening.

Alejandro isn't my favorite song on the album, but it's definitely not hate-worthy. It's a fun song. In fact, I don't think there's a song on Fame Monster that even drops below "like" for me. I think the only Gaga song I don't care for is Brown Eyes. I haven't listened to that song more than maybe three times.

I've actually gotten bored of the Telephone video. I guess all the story makes the rewatch value drop significantly for me. Bad Romance is more of an eye candy video and is just as fresh as ever (yeah yeah, there's some story about the sex slave trade, but it isn't that noticeable). Also, the only song I really don't enjoy by Gaga is Beautiful, Dirty, Rich. Can't stand that song.

I have this fantasy of Gaga announcing a tour where she does stripped-down piano versions of her songs, maybe with a minimal backing band. And she does this in smaller venues for $30-$40 a ticket, where the tickets don't have to be outrageous to cover the cost of the crazy stage show. I think the reason I have this fantasy is because with Gaga, it's not altogether impossible.

I wouldn't be surprised if she does this when she gets older and can't do the poo poo she does now. I would like to think she will not take the Madonna route and know not to do sexually charged shows when shes 50.

Yes, women are only allowed to be sexual until they reach 40 years of age. Then they must turn it off

Also I said 50 not 40.

My wife and I (who attended one of her concerts in January) talked about this as an option as well, and think it would be ideal. Small, intimate venues, lots of inter-song banter and jokes and stories and audience interaction, just Gaga and a piano having fun on stage, like a cabaret act. I've been to similar shows put on by Ben Folds and Tom Waits, and while it is out of character for Gaga now, the style would still suit her well, and we'd be the first in line.

I don't know for certain for every area, but it does appear for Boston, NY, and the like that 200 is for the Little Monster package, which is GA. The cheapest seats go for around 70 each after Ticketmaster charges you for the convenience of printing out a ticket. Hopefully when Indianapolis tickets go on sale they are slightly cheaper than that, but probably not.

I tried to get tickets to the Toronto show today but it looks like I'm going to have to miss it. The lowest price option was sold out, and I wasn't about to pay $100+ for tickets that were still practically in the nosebleed section. So those of you who are going to the show better not let me down with grainy shakycam video footage!

Lady Gaga Sued For $30 Million By Producer/Ex-Boyfriend Rob Fusari http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2010/03/19/lady-gaga-sued-for-30-million-by-producerex-boyfriend-rob-fusari/ Rolling Stone posted:You know you’ve reached The Fame when someone slaps you with a massive lawsuit. Lady Gaga is being sued for $30 million by producer and ex-boyfriend Rob Fusari, the co-writer of Gaga’s hit “Paparazzi,” who claims he discovered the singer in 2006 and created the moniker “Lady Gaga.” In the suit, Fusari seeks a 20 percent cut from Gaga’s two companies Team Love Child and Mermaid Music, saying he entered into a contract with Gaga in 2006 that also promised him a portion of her merchandising and revenue, the New York Daily News reports. Fusari, who previously had hits with Will Smith’s “Wild Wild West” and Destiny Child’s “Bootylicious,” also claims that he was shortchanged on his royalty fees. So do you guys know anymore about this? This is the first I have heard of it.
