New Musical Obsession


ive known about Lady Gaga for a while, mostly because of JO. but it takes me a while to become a full blown aficionado on an artist, but once it starts, its quick and complete. ill know everything there is to know about the artist, where they are from, how they got their start, what their past material is, etc. Lady Gaga is no different. the turning point was seeing the Poker Face video. i hate music videos because alot of the time they have nothing to do with the song and the direction sucks, etc. but this video is sooooo different! it seems to go along with the song, the imagery and direction are great, and the song also, naturally, is awesome.

of course, there exists no official video on youtube, and even if there was, the embed would be disabled, so instead ill have to link you. i promise you. this video is worth a watch.

alright nevermind. i dont get why these record companies take artists videos off youtube! its like free advertising and publicity for them! o well. it was on her website as of last night, i physically watched it on there like 3 times and now its gone. maybe they strong armed her into taking it off? wtf! heres what im going to do. im adding lady gaga's blog (yes she updates her own blog) to my blogroll and its likely if the video is added back it will show up.

make sure you check out her "Transmission Gaga-Vision" video diaries. they kind of take you along with her on her on going press tour. i think she adds a new one every week?

ps. her album drops the 28th...and there's a performance and signing on the 27th at the Virgin store in NYC if ne one is in the area

And here is the rest of it.
