| The Ghost of RubangB said: Lady Gaga's lyrics do not... mean... anything. They aren't inspiring a generation to distrust authority or to try to stop a war or to think for themselves or to believe in themselves. They're "cherry cherry boom boom" and "I want to take a ride on your disco stick." It's mindless bubble gum dance pop! And that's okay! There's nothing wrong with fun catchy pop dance tunes! They can be great fun! BUT STOP PRETENDING SHE IS THE VOICE OF A GENERATION AND CHANGING MUSIC. |
listen to her singing it live and tell me that there is no emotion or meaning to her lyrics..
it isn't just a funny happy pop song, that's what makes her different..
Listen to the sadness she adds into a record like "Just Dance", its about THE FAME, how just dance is her continuing her life despite the fame destroying her in the inside, this girl went through 5 record labels that dropped her for being lady gaga.. and just dance was her first true record about her experience and how even when everything is turning against you, you must learn to just continue on with life, "Just dance' ganna be ok" I mean its really clear to me as a fan since she explains it through her acoustics and the emotion and depth she adds to the songs that immediately go from pop songs to very interesting ballads. "Wish I could shut my play boy mouth, how to turn my shirt inside out", Wish I could shut out the lies of the fame, and learn how to release what I really am to the world, "the record changed my life" she doesn't make the meaning blatently obvious.. because that's what art is.. a mystery.
It's simple stuff like that, she just spins it into pop tunes, but the lyrics have great meaning.. hidden within a shallow surface like she says about her telephone video above..
Then again we all have opinions, and everything is subjective, I could be wrong, you all could be right so who knows =P
