Lady Gaga fans, honest question, I really need to clarify how you view the world:
Forget Madonna... Lady Gaga or Beatles?
|
John Lennon > Lady Gaga > The Beatles in talent and quality (not success) tbh.
The Beatles were just a Justin Bieber group back then, that was their success. AKA the backstreet boys, Boyz to men all that is sex appeal. In the 60s, adults were more gullible, today only teens and kids are in respect to music.
Freddie Mercury and Queens > Elvis Presely in my book, any day. Bohemian rhapsody? The show must go on? We will rock you? We are the champions? Elvis' song stealing fat ass can go take a seat.
As for Whitney Huston and Madonna, Madonna's success was her sex appeal, she broke the boundries of what a recording artist could do. She brought sex into music. Whiteny Huston's perfect voice made her career, she doesn't have iconic songs like Madonna does. The average person can identify iconic songs that belong to Madonna like Like a Prayer and Ray of Light, Whitney's song is I will Alway Love you which is not hers. So I would say they are pretty even.
As for the present and future Artists, Lady Gaga is the obvious winner. All her albums have been nominated for the best prize in the music industry, Album of the Year at the Grammys. All of her songs are amazing when she plays them on her piano, she can sing, and gives us glam rock eye candy that reminds us of the days of David Bowie.
On MJ, I feel like people just push things too far with him, I personally do not like his voice. Frank Sinatra was popular in his days and very successful. We have Elton John, Bon Jovi, and John Lennon. Michael Buble is the new guy in town, but he puts me to sleep.
