For some reason I don't see Dance In The Dark being released as a single in the US. I love that song though too! I liked to see it released as a club single like "Impressive Instant" from Madonna's Music. The remixes would be killer. |

She's not going to release 'Starstruck' at this point. I wish people would just get that thought of her possibly releasing it out of their heads. That song came out in 2008 on her first album, now it's 2010 and she's on her sophomore album. If she's going to be release singles, they'll be from this current album.

GaGa tweeted this earlier, hilarious:
pretty genius, big huge man banging on the car window outside the arena, trying to sell me scalped tickets to my own show. yoouuu skalliwag

With the surprise entries of "Paparazzi" and "Bad Romance" (respectively listed at #83 & #39) on Pitchfork's Top 100 Tracks of 2009, the P4K staff follow through with their newfound GaGa glorification with a belated review. Acknowledgement is half the battle, but they're kind-- very kind. |

Acknowledgement is half the battle, but they're kind-- very kind. Did Pitchfork Magazine ’sell out’ by giving Lady Gaga a high rating?
I was taking my daily ’stroll around the alt internet scene’, and I noticed that Pitchforkmagazine.com had reviewed one of the latest albums by the popular mnstrm icon ‘Lady Gaga.’ I didn’t read the review, but noticed that she got a 7.8. In the past, I think that score was what they gave to a ‘buzzband who yall need 2 watch out 4 in the future.’
I feel confused. I always thought that pitchfork was an indie music site, but Lady Gaga is 0% indie. Maybe I am supposed to ‘appreciate her’ since her gimmick is artistic or something. Maybe Pitchfork is no longer an ‘indie site’ since they get mad hits, so they have to cover this type of stuff 4 ’search engine optimization’ purposes. Seems like p4k might be ‘going mainstream’, trying to get some emerging tween hits, or something.
Feel overwhelmed by GaGa mania. I think she really appeals 2 middle america, though. Like she represents something ‘zany’ and ‘glamorous’ that helps ppl disconnect from their real lives’, and gives them an absurd image to lose themselves in. Wonder if she will evolve into an ‘icon’, or if people will just ‘lose interest’ and she will just become another fallen star who performs in gay bars full of audacious homosexers who ‘adore’ her. I think Lady Gaga’s best career move might be staging a suicide/murder/drug overdose, which will preserve her legacy. Afraid that she will have some sort of cheesy ‘unplugged’ era where she has dark hair, and plays songs that sound like Feist/Regina Spekty.
Still can’t believe she got a 7.8. I would ‘give my right arm’ for my buzzband to get a Pitchfork 7.8.
Maybe Pitchfork should alter their rating system in the 2k10s. Possibly expanding the range from 0 to 11. Truly great albums in the 2k10s will sound nothing like great albums from any time before. I feel like they would generate a lot of buzz by doing this, especially if they called in the ‘AnCo rule.’ Really would be an effective way of communicating the quality + relevancy of an album. |

Hopefully we'll see the updated numbers soon. We haven't seen numbers for LG in two weeks, but my guess is that it's around 1.96 million. Should pass 2 million next week or the week after. "Paparazzi" is also going to pass the 2 million mark the week after next as well.

My friend always makes a point to assert that GaGa is simply engineered to appeal to "people from the Midwest." Actually, in his own words: Through some combination of talent, perseverance, and Midwestern fans, she had won over - or at least silenced - all of her doubters. It's a fascinating notion, to say the least. How mind numbingly pretentious. Yet another example of how unbearable the average indie aficionado is. Nah, that's just Carles dickin' around. He's a caricaturist of the spoon-fed, diluted hipster archetype. |

She just performed a Monster/Bad Romance/Speechless medley and looked so disappointed by the end of it. She was probably pretty pissed about that shoulder thing that kept falling off. :(
Good perf. overall.

I really like that interview. She is much more personable in her interviews in the past few months compared to her earlier interviews, where her personality frankly turned me off. Her performance was meh. Her vocals, dancing, etc. seemed off from her usual self likely because of her wardrobe issues....

So my bro said his card just got refunded for tomorrow's show... I wonder how many dates she's going to be taking off? Not that she doesn't deserve a break, but this tour should have been scheduled better if she's getting sick after just a few weeks. She was well enough to perform on Oprah today... Just saying.

My show is on Monday! It apparently is postponed? No word on when it's postponed to though, I assume it'll be after her NYC shows. Kinda sucks, I kinda made a weekend out of the show, its at a casino, so now idk what's gonna happen. But obv. if she needs rest she needs rest, so hopefully she gets better soon!

Supposedly she's coming back to Orlando and whatever other city she had to change up venues on at the last minute, recently. Thanks a lot for the weekly sales by the way, so much GaGa-ness, it's awesome! |
