You might say I just "discovered" Lady Gaga. I've heard her name talked about on different shows but never paid attention, then listening to the radio while in front of the computer I hear some songs I liked but never caught the name of the song or the artist. This happened once before when a song was played as background music on HBO (when I had cable)...drove me nuts not knowing the name of the song or the group singing the song...later found out it was Clocks by Coldplay..needless to say I'm a die hard Coldplay fan. Well the same thing happened just last night. On Oprah Winfrey she had Lady Gaga...I caught the end so didn't hear what song she sang, so zoomed over to good old reliable Youtube and typed in Lady Gaga...nearly fell off my chair when one of the videos I watched was the same songs I've heard on the radio--Bad Romance and Paparazzi. For those of you have not seen the full length versions of either song, yes they ARE very weird--kind of avant guarde-ish..you know kind of "artsy"? And just plain weird...but I love them and now I'm a fan of Lady Gaga's. And now can't get those two songs out of my head. Have you ever become an "instant" fan of an artist/musician cause you're fascinated by their, well, weirdness? Anyone else a fan of hers or is she a bit much for you? Here's a video, and I might add a VERY tame version of Paparazzi (to see the "real" version you have to go to YouTube : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC1DRAxJr_A&feature=player_embedded
