To think that Lady Gaga sings rather well

Watching her on BBC3 live. Surprised to discover she can actually hold a tune. Not a fan of her style and always assumed that she was rather manufactured.

She can sing and put on a show but she needs a lie down in a dark room.

Think I agree with you!

She's clearly a trained pianist too. All her hype has always put me off her music.

mad as a box of frogs definitely but obviously a very talented lady

infact I think she's rather wasted in pop.... jazz is obviously where her heart is

She is a v good singer but her diction is really lazy imo

I only saw her briefly, but commented to DS1 that she's much more talented than Madonna (who some say she rips off), and he remarked on the fact she can actually play the piano.
I think she shows Madonna up for the posturing, talentless idiot she is.

The only talent Madonna had was singing through her nose!

True - but don't forget ripping off Cindi Lauper - another one who can actually sing and write music.

well, although I was never a M fan, you've got to hand it to her - she made it that big with no discernible talent, which is pretty awesome imo.

Lady Gaga, just don't understand why people think she's mad - she is incredibly talented and essentially an artist.

I agree that she is talented, but think she has a slightly monotone deep voice. ie she doesn't have that much range.

Madonna is shrill, though less so than at the start of her career, but like Lady Gaga, has a voice that works well for pop.

Anyway, I enjoy listening to Lady Gaga's music, and thats good enough for me!
