People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.
Kill them, Warpcrafter, and end the reign of emptyheaded worship of teeny, talentless, toneless (and somehow non-mainstream?) metal! Long Live Lady Gaga!

S-brand, your Chaos-tainted mind is too young for this kind of internet content! Also, given your penchant for Slaneeshi worship, I figured you'd love the Gaga.
I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
@FITZZ: Pre-packaged is kind of an ironic term in this case. But in all seriousness, she's anything but a couture Britney. Use that Wikipedia thingy we're all so fond of.

I'll give it a look Manchu, perhaps I'm being too judgemental,still,her musical stylings grate on my nerves.

Fair enough. Not everything is for everyone of course. She's not canned, is all. (I actually think she's talented but don't care for her music all that much. Some of it's okay, most of it's kind of meh. But she's a great entertainer either way.)

As a side note: The first time I saw Lady GaGa (on VH-1) I laughed and said "meh, plastic,fake and untalented,she'll never last",the last time I made a similiar coment concerning a performer it was about Madonna back in 1983,so..yeah,I've been wrong before

Funny you use that comparison, I think she could be on that same track but we'll have to see how album 2 does. Madonna has some mad survivability and Lady G may not be able to reinvent herself quite as quickly.
I finally saw a bit of one of her videos. Someone call me when she can actually sing or write a song.
Madonna did it better 25 freaking years ago.
-"Wait a minute.....who is that Frazz is talking to in the gallery? Hmmm something is going on here.....Oh.... it seems there is some dispute over video taping of some sort......Frazz is really upset now..........wait a minute......whats he go there.......is it? Can it be?....Frazz has just unleashed his hidden weiner dog from his mini bag, while quoting shakespeares "Let slip the dogs the war!!" GG

I endured the song/video she did with Beyonce (sp) with all the toy guns in it.
Holy cow that was the worst thing I have ever experienced (except perhaps Transformers 2). The video made no sense, the "music" appeared to be random noise and lyrics and yet repetetive at the same time.
It actually made my brain hurt to sit through it.
I don't know what is linked to in this tread, as I can't see it at work, but I can only assume it is as terrible as all the other stuff I have heard/seen from her.
Holy gak!!! I posted this hoping you would see it for what it is and unleash the standard Dakka storm of mockery and derision that usually falls upon anything as ridiculous as Lady Gaga. Gentlemen, your Nerdrage BS is less than an Ork's.
How was I not here at the start of this thread?! Grr! This is my gimmick, dammit! I kid, partially... Gaga is more talented than spending 5 seconds watching a video will tell you. Try doing some research and you'll see what I mean And for the record, the Bad Romance video is pure F'ing win.
P.S. @everyone: Metal is one genre. Dream Theater does metal better than your favorite metal band as well as many other styles.
