Hello, Madonna? I mean.... Lady Gaga?

This has probably been mentioned before but her new song sounds VERY familiar... Like a new version of 'Vogue'..

I'm talking about the radio version - not the performance from last night (which I still have yet to see on DVR)..

It sounds more like express yourself. Same key and tune is very similar. And her hair looked just like madonnas too. For someone who is as hyped as she is, I expected more creativity. Chat Icon Smokin bod though!

Yes it was Express Yourself..it really was. Listen to it again and sing express yourself.

maybe Madonna doesn't care but it's pure plagarism. Disappointed because she can really write good hits..she didn't need to do that.

From the moment I first saw Lady Gaga, I thought to myself that she was basically just a Madonna impersonator. It's like she read the book 'Madonna's Guide to Being a Popstar' and followed it word for word.

I saw a clip of her Grammy acceptance speech and even her way of speaking was very reminiscent of Madonna's "Proper British English" period.

Re: Hello, Madonna? I mean.... Lady Gaga?

It is literally the SAME song. I love Gaga but it's so distracting for me I can't even hear the lyrics or enjoy it at all. I just keep singing "Express Yourself" in my head. Chat Icon

Notice how she said last night at the Grammy's she thought of Whitney Houston when she wrote this song years ago....its almost like she's trying to tell us she thought of this first Chat Icon

I can't access youtube at work, so I don't know what you posted. But I am assuming it is la isla bonita?? Since Alejandro was basically a semi-rip off of that...

If you're going to do a bad Madonna put some effort into the show and at least have a black Jesus and a few burning crosses.

Re: Hello, Madonna? I mean.... Lady Gaga?

I think Madonna is gross and Lady Gaga is even grosser. But I have to say I like Gaga's music better than Madonna. Never been a fan of hers.

Re: Hello, Madonna? I mean.... Lady Gaga?

I was working one night and our piano player started playing Bad Romance, this gentleman at the bar started showing my clips of a performer from Serbia named Jelena Kaleusa. He was telling me how she has been around in Serbia a long time and that Lady Gaga stole a lot of her style from her. He showed me this video

click me

I thought it was interesting.

YES!!! I just heard it on the radio and thinking right aways MADONNA.... EXPRESS YOURSELF!

So much for creativity!

She really has copied everybody's style.

She is the frankenstein of pop. Cindy Lauper, Madona, Christina Aguilera.... all in one!!!

Re: Hello, Madonna? I mean.... Lady Gaga?

I am a huge Madonna fan and I have no problem with what Lady Gaga is doing. She is the new Madonna. Madonna can't keep performing and Lady Gaga has taken over for the next generation. I don't care if she "copies" some of Madonna's songs, Gaga is a talented performer also. Personally I am so tired of the Gaga haters just saying, oh she's so unoriginal, she's nothing compared to Madonna, etc. I think Gaga is just as good and entertaining as Madonna.

I don't understand the hype, never did. She tries way to hard and fakes an accent which is beyond annoying (madonna is that you?). The song def sounds way too much like Express Yourself. She thanked Whitney for the inspiration when she was writing the song meanwhile should have been Madonna.
