As everyone probably knows Lady Gaga is one of the biggest rising stars of todays pop culture. She has had countless number ones in the past 2 years and can be recognized almost anywhere she goes (not only from her crazy outfits). Her songs can be found in almost any country and have people who listen to country listening to pop and adults actually listening to pop radio again. Lady Gaga has definitely gave me hope for this generation of music to turn around and become something unique and awesome again. This is her second CD titled The Fame Monster when her first CD was titled The Fame.
Bad Romance- 10/10- This was her first single off of the CD and it made it HUGE!!!!! When I first heard it I didn’t like it but after hearing it 5 or 6 times it really grew on me and to this day I am not sick of it. The vocals of course are amazing and one of my favorite Lady Gaga songs. Props to the people who designed this music video it is pure genius! Also, who hasn’t caught themselves singing the rah’s to themselves at one point or another? (:
Alejandro- 8.5/10- At first I really liked this song but after hearing it 100 times I started to get sick of the name Alejandro. She is singing about a guy who is abusing his girlfriend and how she doesn’t want to be in this relationship anymore. This song has a really nice beat but almost no lyrics and the lyrics that there are just get repeated over and over again. Still a good song that I don’t skip if it comes on shuffle but I wouldn’t pick it if I was looking for a song to listen to.
Monster- 9.5/10- This song wasn’t one of the ones that made it to the radio but strangely I like it. This song reminds me of a friend warning her best friend of a guy that she used to go out with and how he is terrible and to be really careful of him. I love the concept of this song and the way she sounds on this song is really cool. One to check out!
Speechless- 11/10- This is my absolute favorite Lady Gaga song EVER!!! This is one of the only slow songs that I have heard her sing and I LOVE it! She is talking about a boy who let her down but she will still love him forever and won’t love anyone else because no one could replace him. This is a topic that a lot of people can relate to and it really shows that Lady Gaga can actually sing and she isn’t all techonizied (not a word). This is one I listen to on repeat for hours and one to check out on YouTube or iTunes.
Dance in the Dark-8/10- This is another song that didn’t make it on the radio but is actually really good. This is a song I like to freestyle to in my room to. (Yes, I dance in my room) (: The reason it is getting it an 8 is because like most songs on her CD it is quite repetitive. This is a song that I would expect to find in a club and everyone dancing to. I’m not quite sure what this song is about….. but with songs that are strictly dance songs the lyrics don’t really matter as much.
Telephone- 7.5/10- This song features Beyonce and is one of the singles of this CD. This is about a girl who really doesn’t want to talk to her boyfriend and she is telling him that she is really busy dancing at a club and she doesn’t want to talk AT ALL. Again like all of Lady Gaga songs this has a nice beat but the same lyrics repeated. I also don’t like the concept of this song, not sure why it doesn’t strike me as very creative but overall a great duet song but for the radio, no thank you.
So Happy I Could Die- 7/10- This song is just kind of there for me. I don’t love it, I don’t hate it. She is just talking about how happy she is on this night and doesn’t want it to end. There isn’t much to say about it but I wouldn’t recommend buying it.
Teeth-8.5/10- I’m going to warn you right now, this song is really inappropriate. I really like the feel of this song it has a country- hip hop kind of tempo and it is a song you either like or hate. As I said before this is inappropriate so I try not to listen to the lyrics but think of all the cool dance moves you could choreograph to this song and if she ever makes a video for it I’m sure the choreographer will have a lot of fun!
Bad Romance(Starsmith Remix)-1/10- This is one of the worst remixes I have ever ever heard! The first 30 sec of the song is just “Caught in a bad romance” being repeated. Then you can barely hear her singing because the beat is so strong and loud. The only reason this song isn’t getting a O is because I can see where it would work at clubs or weddings (where there is a DJ). Listening to it alone gives me a headache I strongly recommend not looking it up.
There is no denying the craziness that comes along with Lady Gaga but she is definitely a roe model for teenagers to be crazy and show the monster inside of them and to not be shy. She is slowly changing the face of music for the better and this CD was for the most part an example of that. This is worth buying but you don’t need to run and buy it this second.

We are just curious here but we would love if you would comment on what your favorite Lady Gaga costume is! My favorite is the Kermit the Frog outfit. (:
