That alone sounds like a gimmick, so I'm not holding my breath. I'll just leave it at that.

I personally love the song. But I love many, many songs.

Gaga comes off too knowing of the business to take a major risk in my opinion. There may be something of a "Throwing Away the Gaga image" album, but I fear that it will be just as calculated.

The guitar on Paperback Writer is just amazing. I actually think that single is the best Beatles release because Rain is also a top 5 song. And I also have no faith in the Lady Gaga album, but it is worth a try I suppose.

You should really open your mouth a little wider when you speak.

This site is called Music Banter for a reason. Hope this helps.

I think if she's as strange as she tries to appear to be, then maybe there's a chance she'll start making "strange" or experimental music. I really do hope she looses her fame so she might focus on writing interesting music and start to do something positive for the music industry. It's not like she's not good at what she does. After all, she's been in the music business for a while now. I still hate her music, though...
