the only talent in Missing Persons was Warren Cucurullo anyway

once he left, he took everything with him

I saw Missing Persons a few years ago (with Dale as the sole original member). Her singing is okay, she doesn't appear to play any instruments, and anyone can tell the band's lyrics were always mediocre. Lastly, age has caught up with Dale, so that part of the appeal is gone. In a way, Lady Gaga walks a narrower line as far re pop success, due to the lack of beauty.
Well, Dale was a coke addict. And from what I hear, she still dabbles. So, that's what caught with her. Not age. It was a pretty intense drug addiction.

As for Lady GaGa, her lack of physical beauty has nothing to do with the fact that she's not very creative. She may be able to play the piano, but she can't write music to save her life.

Also, that Princess Die song? Probably the stupidest thing she has ever done.

No, it wasn't just Warren with talent. Terry Bozzio has a good reputation as a drummer, and obviously the keyboard work on the albums was good.

Anyway, I disagree that Lady Gaga lacks talent (beyond piano playing). I think the writing and arrangements for songs like "Paparazzi" and "Judas" are creative and strong. However, in today's pop world, that probably does not count for nearly as much as sex appeal, and she lacks that.

She took the melody for Judas from a synth pack that was already used by Loli Lux a year before.

But I'll give you Paparazzi. That's her one shining moment, imo.

Terry Bozzio can't do anything people like Keith Moon did a million times better

yes he was a highly sought-after session men

but so are many other faceless drummers

edit:- Warren scored a gig with Zappa, which was no easy task I think

Terry and Warren both played with Zappa for quite awhile. Terry was actually with Zappa all the way back to 'Zoot Allures' and turned out some pretty manic, complex stuff. I always thought of him more as a jazz drummer than a rock drummer though he did plenty of both.

There isn't one. They are all terrible. But I'll go with the Fame. It doesn't have ay plagiarism on it.
