Somewhere in that space between Madonna and Marilyn Manson lives Lady Gaga. I don't know as though she has the longevity of either, but who knows… she has only just begun it would appear. Her name is all over the place these days and is thus hard to ignore without some investigation by a musical slut such as myself. I wasn't terribly impressed with the first song I heard months ago, "LoveGame", but I am giving her another try. I am far more impressed this time around. I'm not even sure if the song is as good without the extreme visuals of the video. There is something very "The Dope Show" meets "Vogue" about the video for this song, and as it was with those videos, I cannot seem to take my eyes away. Approve or disapprove, original or not, good or bad there is something entertaining and bizarre, appealing and repulsive about Lady Gaga. Advert your eyes if you must, but don't feel bad if you push replay button. I did.

UPDATE 12/1/2009:

A friend and frequent visitor to TSotD.com had this to say, and I had to share…

"YES! I am so repulsively in love. LOVE that song. But, hey, did you happen to catch Poker Face yet?"

"It's great! But then take a look at the acoustic version done by Chris Daughtry. Equally or more stellar!"

Also "she's more bizarre the deeper you look. With one eye."
