Lady Gaga has been on top of the pop music world going on 5 years now. That's actually pretty damn impressive.

Not really. 5 years is not long in the music business.

In the pop world, all bands try to do is get that 1 hit. A few (Katy Perry, Christine Aguilera) can actually stay. But they go for their 1 big hit to make it, and then fade away and file for banckruptcy 2 years later.

I actually enjoyed that one, the one where Jerry's girlfriend gets him out of the tickets, and the smelly car.

Its a good show. It's not meant to be watched on a regular basis like every Sunday night. It's meant to be watched 5 episodes in a row.

I think that part of it was that I never watched it and it was so talked up that it could never meet its expectations, so it let me down. Which is why I won't watch Breaking Bad. Because it just can't meet my expectations.

No, in the pop world, executives decide who has marketing appeal, and hook them up with this guy:

Pop music is a business. Bieber is marketed towards little girls, same as the Jonas Brothers. Once their business appeal is gone, their careers will be over. There are a few that start out as pop hits that actually go on to substantial things, i.e. The Beatles.

And yet I don't thin I've ever heard one of her tunes...

And I'm happy for that.

I heard "Go" on the radio the other day and rocked out hard. The college kids and "adults" looked at me like I was some heathen Viking warlord who showed up at a pool party.

I celebrate their entire catalog...well, maybe not all of it. Very good live band, though

She does not write her own songs. There isn't an ounce of intelligence in her skull

She is a good musician, but only got famous when she started dressing crazy and doing early 90's dance music. They are catchy songs, though.

I will disagree. She's a master marketer, imo

That's all she has going for her though

Actually, before she got famous, she used to be a studio song writer for other people. So she can definitely write songs.
