If you think Lady Gaga has no talent look here.

Wow just listen to this. I simply cannot beilever this is all done by her, no audio processing, no back music and no auotune.
I just wish her songs on he albums were more like this, maybe I'd be a fan.

I've heard this voice a billion times before, practically everyone has been trying to copy Aretha Franklin for 40 years.

This is why I dislike her so much. She WASTES her talent with the "Lady Gaga" persona. I remember seeing an interview where she said it's not about the money or fame, which is obviously BS.

Simply being a good singer isn't enough now to make it big. You have to do something that will get you noticed to make you money. Lady Gaga has some good songs but sometimes the weird factor kills the mood. Born This Way was a good song but the video was so weird it was a distraction to the actual music in my opinion.

Of course, the pop music haters will come in and call her every name in the book just because.

She's talented, there's no doubt about that. She's also smart enough to know that music like that isn't what sells. Pretty much the same deal with Christina Aguilera, very good singer but you rarely actually get to see the talent under the pop star status.Ace6301

Sadly, this is true. However, if Gaga made more music like this, I would might actually start listening to her stuff. I mean, the only thing bad about this song is the lyrics, really.

Of course, like you said, this kind of music does not sell. Anyone who's been alive for 10+ years should realize this.

She's a talented individual, but no more so talented in singing than the average small-time artist who plays in bars and local shows and that's it. She found a gimmick and she ran with it. Looking completely crazy is her thing, and that's what took her from small-time to big-time, her image. I think being able to really take advantage of something like that and turn your basic, no-frills talent into something massive is a talent in itself.

What? This specific version? Or that autotune-ridden version that all the kiddies eat up?

she is talented but if it wasnt for the crazy looks, she would be just another average singer....honestly look at her before all the wierd clothes...she isnt that different from every other girl trying to get in the industry

Surprised she hasn't quit her job at the post office yet, since you know.. she's still a male lady. UCF_Knight

This is how she should be. I remember seeing a video before she was Lady Gaga. Much better but nothing special.

I hope you're kidding... Lady Gaga most definitely uses autotune. The fact that she's a very prominent figure for using it doesn't help your arguement.
