can cite the classics that I know because there are just so many of them that I love.There are true oldies golden classics from the 1950s, '60s, and so there are classics from the hippie times in the '70s.But it's the '80s that I love.I listen to alot of Modern Romance and Euro-pops, the Roxy Music, Police and Sting, and all those.Across the Atlantics, Madonna stood out and stands the tests of time.I've eased out of music in the 90s, and look particularly disgusted by hip-hop.There are a few in the '90s that get my ears, but other than that, I don't overlook the '90s much.The '00s in the beginning of the millenium is equally unimpressive.I don't even bother with all those singers or names.Sometimes, when debates run high, I would have a moment aspect to see what's the big fuss about.Such is the case with Lady Gaga.I must say, I give not been impressed with Lady Gaga at all.For all her outrageous MTV, it's mostly only a rehash of the coming out of Mary in the 1980s, and by jove, Madonna is 30 years before of her time.Perhaps that would excuse the enduring surccess of Mary through these years, even though I haven't followed any of her newer songs since the 1990s.Those dance moves and outrageous costumes of Lady Gaga look more like copycat of Mary in the 1980s.I must say though, at least Madonna's have been more pleasing in the eye even though hers was outrageous at the times.For Lady Gaga?It's just outrageous, sans the pleasing part.I'm sure all those young Lady Gaga fans are leaving to rip me aside for such blasphermy.But sorry folks, your idol is not the actual deal.Those youngsters who believe they take a goddess representative of their time now would be painfully disappointed that their idol now is nothing more than a mirage from 30 days before.Given time, we'll be capable to try if Gaga can get out of this copycat phase to make something more master of her own, because one cannot go to be a copycat forever. Sure, there's talk of Gaga the person, and how down-to-earth she is.Madonna has been notable for her personality when she was starting out, of how she grew out and grew up from being manipulated by record companies to put out sugarpop songs like Borderline, to grant us much more sophisticated Vogue, Justify My Love, Express Yourself, Papa Don't Preach, and the more mallow Crazy For You, Take A Bow, and more.Speaking of Madonna's Express Yourself, there's rage over the very obvious plagiarized tune and mind in Gaga's Born This Way.For all the rage, I've decided to hold it out and see/hear it for myself.I must say, I'm so surprised on how like in the tune snippets of the two songs, the mind of the lyrics, and yet the organization of the song's instrument and the sound use of drums in the dance beat too.Perhaps Gaga has provided a really good opportunity to show herself that she's indeed a copycat, given Madonna's ahead of Gaga for 30 years.Disappointing.While I would take that some of Gaga's songs like Alejandro are fairly good dance beat, but she's no comparison to Madonna, in price of originality in songs, creativity and still as a dancer.And eve in the Alejandro music video, it's a mix of the transcript from Madonna's various music videos, including Express Yourself and Vogue. Perhaps Madonna has given us the shock-and-awe factor that there is even yet to be topped.For all the mouth of Gaga's costume, like covering herself in raw meat, sure it's a first, to be sure.But it's never going to be like Madonna who single-handedly made wearing your undergarment (corset and all) fashionable that others can and will copy.And that's what makes Madonna enduring.I'm sure how Gaga can top herself since her racy MTV's are already literally putting sex show on stage, boy-on-boy, boy-on-girl, and what-not.I've always enjoyed Madonna's music videos; but Gaga's copycats are simply so low in discernment and style, forget about class.
