Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 26, 2011 Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 She always goes on rants about how her "art" is a reflection of all the different facets of her and how important it is for her fans to see that. She doesn't seem tongue-in-cheek about anything to me, she seems to take it all very seriously. The 60 Minutes piece really showed about how important it is to her to project the image she wants to project, more so than the music itself. I don't know if I see any clear messages in her work, other than Gaga hitting us over the head about how she wants to stick up for all the gays and the misfits in the world. There's nothing wrong with the "love yourself for who you are message", but she does have a tendency to exploit it to the point where it seems she's a bit manipulative and fake with it. I blame Justin Bieber for this crap... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted February 26, 2011 Administrator Share Posted February 26, 2011 Not everyone can go on singing shows. I think using Youtube is a great way of being discovered. I like watching some of those amateur videos (ie. DaveDays, Kurt Schneider's crew, Boyce Avenue, etc). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted February 26, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 Remember the days where there were no singing shows? The industry was so empty and full of non-talent studio creations and.... wait a minute... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Adam Posted February 26, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 26, 2011 My point was those show's never seemed to discover "talent" like they do today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 28, 2011 Members Share Posted February 28, 2011 That video is a hot tranny mess, but of course, the rabid monsters will claim it's the most insightful and stunning video ever made! And can she stop trying to be sexy? I don't know a single person that finds her attractive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted February 28, 2011 Author Members Share Posted February 28, 2011 "The Manifesto of Mother Monster".... did she actually say that? Oh man... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted March 1, 2011 Members Share Posted March 1, 2011 I don't find the "Born This Way" video all that bad, compared to "Alejandro" and "Telephone" it's pretty good. I always thought she had a difficult time finding a video worthy enough to follow up "Bad Romance". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted March 1, 2011 Members Share Posted March 1, 2011 But can I say how presumptuous, or ego driven that some artists have to make their videos almost 7 minutes long, or longer. That has irked me ever since the "Telephone" video. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted March 1, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) She's definitely taken his spot in that domain, among the living anyway. I don't mind the video. Its as outlandish as all her videos have been, but seems to take it to the next level... which is what each of her videos seem to do.... When you hear the song you definitely picture a much more low-key, happy, celebration, Madonna-esqe video.... but this is Gaga... what you picture in your head is certainly not what you are going to get. I find the monologue so cheesy, and honestly burst out laughing when I heard her say "This is the Manifesto of Mother Monster"... I wouldn't call it the best video ever made, but she at least is still trying to keep the format going by making epic videos... whether you like the "epic" videos or see them as just displays of egocentricity... they are fun to watch. I wonder how much this cost.... But, yes... Bad Romance is the best video (and song to date) she has ever done... I'll be very interested to see if ANY song on Born This Way can top it...
