| As far as current music goes, I guess she's not too bad but when I see the video for "Judas" I get the song "Poker Face" stuck in my head because there isn't a huge amount of variation going on. Its the videos and the looks that are different. Bowie used to make a big deal out of changing appearance for every album but Lady Ga Ga changes a dozen times per video. Surely though we can't say that Lady Ga Ga is as musical as David Bowie (Ashes To Ashes, for example) and there's no way that she could come up with art like Jim has. The tune for Ga Ga's "Born This Way" is slightly nicked from Madonna's "Express Yourself". However, I have to admit that she is much much better than Justin Bebier. I don't get that musical craze at all. > I really dislike most current music, but Lady Gaga is > truly a ruby in a mountain of rocks.
