Seriously.
She has a great voice and a strong feel for all sorts of visual art.
She's like a combination of Linda Ronstadt and Andy Warhol.
Yeah, that's true. I think I dismissed her a bit because of some of her sideshow antics. But the girl can sing.
I think red eyeshadow is so very appealing! Stole the show.
I am a big Linda Ronstadt fan, not so much of Warhol.

FYI... most of the time in big production, heavily choreographed, dance move filled shows and concerts modern singers aren't actually singing and cavorting around the sage at the same time... they lip-sink to their own recordings... its hard to do aerobics and carry a tune...

Oh, and I forgot to mention that Lady Gaga is the daughter of a former West Virginia University cheerleader. Go Mountaineers!

I think I might be injured from laughing at that.
Triumph is like the Walter Cronkite of my generation.

OK that was cool!! i have heard that song in English and German hundreds of times (in high school) but only as a catchy pop tune, i never really listened carefully to the words or put it together with the cold war/Berlin wall before... awesome perspective flip...

Great! Just looking at the eyes of his wife and girls... I imagine that what he is really saying is pretty weird.
