Apparently, I as a straight male, cannot listen to Lady GaGa

Since we're posting clips, a combination of awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tE6owd3AfBc

Amanda Palmer performing "Poker Face" with the Boston Pops Orchestra. The real awesomeness starts around 2:30.

People think because of where I was born and raised that I automatically like Country music. Let ya in on a little secret....I can't stand it.

People also seem to be surprised that I like blow-'em-up movies. "You like those? But you're a girl?!" Hey, I'm the one that picked out "Timecop" and my ex (guy) is the one that picked out "Aladdin"!

I have Madonna, 4 of her albums. But what has she produced in the past 5 years that's of any real worth? Ray of Light was amazing.

Yeah, I got "Confessions on a Dance Floor" and I don't know why.

and as I said-I don't watch tv much or awards shows at all-the one where she smashed stuff and hung herself is the one I'm referring to....

The one where she hung herself was the 2009 MTV VMA's.

People forget about her smashing scotch bottles on her piano at the 2009 AMA's because they were too busy freaking out about Adam Lambert kissing a guy (who is strait, oh noez!).

I've got Rachmaninoff's vespers too!
I also like Lady Gaga, Madonna, Medieval Baebes, Sarah Brightman, and a whole lot of others from so many genres it's not funny!

Sounds kind of like my collection. Just throw in some Celtic.

My CD collection is pretty varied; I've had people express surprise over seeing Duran Duran, Blondie,

D2 - Ah, the best band ever! Loved them for over 20 years now.

And if we want to get into a "she did it first" contest....Debbie Harry was doing it before anyone else....and still is. Blondie has a new album coming out this year! Yay!

Isn't funny how all of us, myself included, are having a sort of "weird-off"?

Who is the most eclectic? Tune in to find out!!!

I've gone from a Christmas Cantata to some Sonata Arctica on my shuffle.

John Frusciante
Attica Blues
Psyche Origami
Squarepusher
Stereolab
St. Germain

Jesper Kyd.

Right now I'm listening to a lot of Jesper Kyd. Guy's awesome.

BoC.. now I'm going to have "Beware the Friendly Stranger" stuck in my head.

By the way, I'd like to enquire about your spoons...

The only Lady Gaga songs I have on my iPod are "Just Dance" and "Poker Face" (the first two released in Australia AFAIK)

As for me, because I'm female and under the age of 25, I'm supposed to like all dance music. Given that both my parents are rock listeners, my dad also listens to jazz and R&B and also plays in an Australian rock band (that's not a new genre by the way, it's basically a cover band performing stuff by Australian rock groups i.e. Midnight Oil, Jet, Crowded House etc.) and I was heavily involved in my music class all through high school, I tend to mostly prefer rock/pop music.

Lately I've been going back and forth between Paul Oakenfold sets and Vocaloid stuff, with a bit of Nomico.

You'd never imagine how much crap I catch for not being a native speaker, or particularly fluent, and enjoying it anyway.

Way I see it's very simple....most of the stuff has multiple translations, and it's certainly enough to understand what's being sung about. Plus, there are often very artistically done videos.

[BigGiant]

Heh,

I feel your pain. Although I'm not into Gaga, I'm a huge Madonna fan.


And I'm not gay, thank you.
