I'm not a fan of her videos, to be honest. They're just so over the top now and I don't understand what half the random things in it have to do with the song. Well, I understood Telephone, but that was about it.

Your sig I guess. And countless other GaGa fans who have rocked the Jesus tree. Original bunch http://www.spillitnow.com/images/smiles/juggle.gif.

You do? Out of all the videos that was the most random.

Just typical pop can't see nothing outstanding about it. And oh joy Gaga tries to offend the Christian religion again, how original and overdone. How about offending another faith, that would be more interesting. I am sure she would cause a bigger storm if she offened the Muslim faith or other faiths. Get some new ideas. :pat:

I agree. This "new" material of hers proves she's a one trick pony. People thought her the next legend in music, but she's ran out of steam already.
Bye bye Gaga.


Although, give her credit, she's a lot better than Britney Spears miming to a computer and dancing like an incontinent aunt at a wedding.

I don't nessacerily think she is trying to offend it, Harry. Just nicking their iconography. Islam isin't really sexy.

As much as I hate the song myself your just running on autopilot with your hate and it's a bit boring.

FYI, that is me showing my faith http://www.greendaycommunity.org/For.../Dark/hmph.png
From someone who listens to Aqua and tries to preach about their music, calling this a typical pop song doesn't mean much

Where did it say she was trying to offend them? http://gagadailyboards.com/images/smilies2/toofunny.gif

:joker:

I have to say though Smithy the song - however good you might think it is - clashes something horrid with the red text in your sig. Bad Romance is the titanium plated Judas from the year 2511. Not the other way around.

Judas is the in-the-club drivel. It's made for the club. The irony is just staggering.

Who wrote that anyway?

Popjustice

The Christian iconography for shock in music videos has been done before. Lady Gaga's songs dont have to be all about hard hitting lyrics and having strong messages through them. Sometimes the best songs of all time have had far simplier message and have not relied on shock factor to be 'good'. Lady Gaga's ''idols'' have done so. I would like to see what she would do with the Islamic faith.

Surprisingly the song grew on me by the end, but I really don't like the chorus.

She is trying to offend the Christian faith or for them to 'take notice' of it which is nothing new. Aqua are underated.

K, but HOW is she trying to offened them?

The song is about embracing you're demons to bring yourself into the light, surely that's a positive message?

And there's a reason for that

They ... don't. That's the point. You may have missed it.

Why would you want her to do a song about Islam? That's just fucking retarded. She's not going to be chanting to the west bouncing around on a Camel's dick hollering ga-ga-Gaddafi. It doesn't sell. It's not the type of pop music she is in the business of making.

Is it a deep song or a throwaway pop one? Do you want her to do the simpler stuff like you said or do an Islamic song? What are you actually talking about?

By the way she's not offending the Christian fate. Stop saying that. I reckon she has a hard on for the Jesus figure and it's more out of that than wanting to say 'yeah, down with Bishops!'.

Again she is just nicking their iconography. Christianity can be very, very sexy.

I could see that working

Whoah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm in love with All-a-ah, All-a-ah

All-Allah, All-Allah, All-Allah, Alla-Gaga
All-Allah, All-Allah, All-Allah, Alla-Gaga

My favourite 'deep' GaGa moment was the nauseous, select audience only meaning of Born This Way. Coz' God makes no mistakes and that's presumably why children are born with horrific defects.

Wishy washy ball cockness of the highest order, dawg.

Really want to like Gaga's music again but this is nothing on her earlier stuff, where the quality of bad romance and telephone! This song is better than born this way, and i can see it being quite catchy but im not overly keen :( come on gaga! get back up there!

Just wait for the video...

Isnt the fact that a song with ideas of the Islam faith different to anything in popular music merit on its own. She could challenge the ideas the faith has about woman and how they are treated. That could be interesting and could try to enlighten people of how bad some people treat women in the faith. With a music video as well. It just is not different as many people have used the Christian faith in their music.

In other words "Im making it up as I go along, just hating for the sake of hating"

omg I just read the other part of the post omg, how can you expect her to write a song about a religion she knows nothing about

omg f/

So excited! And it's her directorial debut! :dance:

Sounds more like Rihanna's thing.

But why? The argument is just silly. I hate the Black Eyed Peas but I don't think a measure of self improvement could be instigated by them doing a concept album around the theme of the Australian Aboriginals right to their homeland just for the heck of it. It's just such a stupid, juvenile demand. Especially as it contradicts your earlier one that she should leave out all the messages and just do simple pop for a change.

That is what she's doing, by the way. It is just simple albeit well produced and well performed pop and anyone is kidding themselves if they think there is some unfathomable mythology to it all.

Anyway, have it your way. Aqua are underrated etc.

No I am not making it up as I go along.
