I got to save my baby
Because he makes me cry
I got to make him happy
I got to teach him how to fly
I want to take him higher
Way up like a bird in the sky
I got to calm him down now
I want to save his life

And I know that love will change us forever
And I know that love will keep us together
And I know, I know
There is nothing to fear
And I know that love
Will take us away from here

Sometimes it's such a pleasure
Sometimes I wanna tear it all down
It's easy to be lazy
And hard to go away from the crowd

I know the road looks lonely
But that's just Satan's game
And either way my baby
We'll never be the same

And I know that love will change us forever
And I know that love will keep us together
And I know, I know
There is nothing to fear
And I know that love
Will take us away from here

In the blink of an eye everything could change
Say hello to your life now you're living
This is it from now on
It's a brand new day
It was time to wake up from this dream (from this dream)

I know the road looks lonely
But that's just Satan's game
And either way my baby
You'll never be the same

And I know that love will change us forever
And I know that love will keep us together

And I know that love will change us forever
And I know that love will keep us together
And I know, I know
There is nothing to fear
And I know that love
Will take us away from here

Gag Me With A Spoon

I am very irritated about this Lady Gaga situation.

When she first hit the scene, I thought she brilliant, innovative, and was eager to have a new pop-tart to listen to/adore. I did even contemplate that she could possibly be the new Madonna, because she was so "fashion forward" and "artistic" and "creative".

My thoughts about this have changed drastically. Though I almost don't know where to begin.

Let's start with the most shallow & minor aspect-- she's ugly. She's not fat, and that's about all she has going for her. Because she's not fat, she can pile on 10 lbs of make-up and glue on some hair and fit into "fashion" and be called fabulous, but there is nothing fabulous about her unfortunate face.

Okay, that's really the smallest of my gripes and merely catty. The biggest thing for me going anti-Gaga was watching Kylie Minogue videos and realizing that Gaga was TOTALLY ripping her off. The wigs, the space costumes, omg. It was BLATANT. And OFFENSIVE! Kylie deserves so much respect for so many reasons-- (fighting breast cancer and WINNING, longevity in her career though most of her North American popularity has been amongst the gay community, AMAZING costumes and shows, omg) and then for this 23 yr old hag to come along and rip her off & shove herself down our throats while calling herself a "performance artist" and "original" makes me sick. Kylie has worked YEARS to get where she is and this girl is stealing her shit and running with it.

Her VMA performance-- ok, ALL of her performances -- are SO amateur! I know Madonna started off rolling around on the floor in a wedding dress, but Madonna had FIRE behind her. Madonna made marriage look sexy! Gaga just looks WEIRD. And I am fully open to weird, but it's not weird in a good way! I'm shocked that she doesn't completely alienate her audiences when she is covered in blood and hangs herself onstage. It's "performance art" but what is her art? Her vocals go to shit the minute she starts "performing". She is NOT a good dancer at all. She looks very unpolished and rough, like she doesn't practice enough FOR the performance. And she looks like she just throws on a wig and jumps out onstage. Just MESS.

Her speech for the Gay Rights Rally-- while her heart may have been in the right place, just sounded ridiculous to me. Screaming at the President? Really? Just looks crazy and I don't how the President is going to do anything other than laugh or be horrified, and I don't know how that works IN FAVOR of gay rights. I do agree that he SHOULD listen and maybe that was "attention getting" but honestly it just looked embarrassing. And I didn't notice many people acknowledging her plea for acceptance with her comment, "And I love Judy Garland." Just STOP already! We know you're a hag!

I will give her credit that some of her songs are very catchy and I like them, still, even after I stopped liking HER. I will also give her credit for writing her own songs and obviously having DRIVE and ambition to get where she is, but to me, that is where her similarities with Madonna STOP. Everyone thought Britney was going to take over Madonna's reign, (obviously she did not) but does Madonna have to "pass the torch" to every new pop-tart that comes along? There isn't going to BE another Madonna, because Madonna isn't GOING anywhere. Gaga needs to either originalize her game or get the fuck out. She said that her next songs are going to be gothy, it seems more likely for her to become the female version of Marilyn Manson than anything else; shocking for the sake of being shocking.

Yawn.
