Whatever image Lady Gaga is trying to convey, or whatever character is she trying to portray, the fact remains that her music right now is the most powerful sound that is hitting the airwaves. Definitely, this 25 year old is on the edge of glory, and her voice will be here to stay for a very long time yet.

Amen eileenleyva! Lady Gaga has convinced me to agree to be Lord Judas. Now all she's got to do is 'ask' (and--you know--pay the 30 shekels of silver-or-gold-or-lithium-or-whathaveyou ) I might 'write' a song to the tune of "Sledgehammer" - "I wanna be ... your Lord Judas. Won't you call on me? I wanna be ... your Lord Judas. Your call is my testimony. GAGG! ... GAGG! ... GAGG! ..." I think I'll Search the Web for "Sledgehammer lyrics" to spoof it off of 'proper.' Yep, Lady Gaga will be famous for inspiring the name 'Lord Judas,' just like Queen (and Freddie Mercury) are famous for inspiring the name that Stephani Germanotta uses!

I am a huge fan of this woman. Was actually quite guilty of dissing her before I even knew of her talents, and talent she does have in abundance. I randomly came across Grayson Chance's piano recital of Paparazzi and I was blown away. A related youtube video linked to a Lady Gaga video doing an acoustic version of Paparazzi and being the Curious George that I am, I gave her a chance. though I must admit that I did prejudge her as the next outlandish Britney Spears wannabe sans the Lolita-ish good looks. After seeing her piano chops and hearing one of the most eclectic voices of this generation (would you believe it,a pop singer not hooked up on auto tune software?) I was humiliated. How could I not be a fan of such clear talent? I guess her outlandish fashion sense somehow became a disservice since in my opinion it did distract one from looking at her more finer qualities. Give her a chance and see beyond the pound of makeup and glitter. Try looking for her acoustic performances in Youtube and prepare to be blown away. Long Live Gaga.

Lady Gaga is here for awhile! She is a good singer and songwriter! She knows how to get people's attention! She knows what she is doing! Lady Gaga knows how to make money with her music and I am starting to like her music! At least some off her "I was born this way" album! I have friend at work who is a huge Lady Gaga fan and he has helped me become a fan of her music! I think her outfits,at least ,most of them and her videos are weird,though!

I love Lady Gaga her music is wonderful and her voice is great. She is so talented with writing her own music and creating the ideas for her custumes. She is definitely different and will be around for a very long time. I saw her concert on HBO from New York and she was just so powerful and unbelievable. She is one of my favorites along with Adele who is my second favorite at this time.. She is an English Girl all of 21 years of age and has also some great music out there. I can listen to her all day.

I have heard Lady Gaga compared to Madonna. It seems she will be around for a very long time. I think she wears such outlandish costumes to show that she is different and doesn't mind it. She is not the typical beauty, but she is in her own way.

I personally don't like lady gaga. I don't like some of her songs and I don't feel comfortable listening to her kind of music.

Hiya eileen, She is okay to listen to yes. I quite like her and her Songs are catchy as well. Comparing her to others that I like I still like the other Singers much better but I do listen to her. There is a Spanish Woman who has one of the most amazing Voices I have heard in a long time but it´s Women her that never get to be famous but have a fantastic Voice. Can you win? No suppose you can´t but she is famous where she lives and that must be something. Her voice is very powerful but beautiful to listen to. I can´t put a Video on here for you to listen to as they have blocked it from youtube. She sings something like the late Rocio Jurado. Everyone stood up and aplauded her. You know she was so uncomfortable being dressed up trying to be someone else so the next time she went in wearing flatter heels and a dress that suited her much better too.

I don't like her at all. Her voice is as good as other singers such as Taylor swift. Furthermore, there are no changes to her genre of songs, they are mostly similar. I do admire her for her image, creativity, but being a singer, she ought to put her focus on songs. She has to be known for her singing prowess, not her dressing. So far, i'm only interested in 3 of her songs, out of many she's sung.

Lady Gaga is a force to reckon with. At 25, she had tremendous achievement just by doing what she does best and showing herself to the world that she's not afraid to take risks and that she dares to be different. I saw her performance in the American Idol finale where she sang her new single, Edge of Glory. Even though a few parts of her choreography were pretty bold and a little bit creepy, I still found her really really amazing. She was fearless and unstoppable and the song was catchy and has a lot of great messages in it.
