The lyrics are actually disturbing to me. I don't think it's a conspiracy or something like that - just her trying to be controversial, probably.

But I think this is probably going to cause a lot of CT-ists to write even more stuff about her.

How can someone avoid Lady Gaga when she's all over? LOL.

I've watched some. I'm not a fan, but I don't completely hate her. But I was on youtube looking up other stuff and I saw this video on the main page. I thought it might be something controversial by the title, so I clicked the link.

The CT people are already getting paranoid about it:

Someone posted this:

SONG MEANING ~

"Who is Judas?" Judas Iscariot: The man who was once a follower of Jesus. Then, he betrayed Jesus, helped the chiefs find and kill him on the cross. Judas committed suicide later because he knew what he did was wrong.

“It's about clutching onto the light while peering towards the devil in the back...I still go back again to those evil things.” - Gaga”

She leaked this song 4 days early - celebrating Judas betraying Jesus 4 days before Easter. (Copy&Paste)

I do admit that the lyrics make me uncomfortable because of the religious beliefs I've had in the past and I don't like that she leaked it before Easter.

To be honest, her video for Alejandro scared me. She put a rosary in her mouth and she had big, red, upside-down crosses on her sleeves.

I usually try to avoid her songs, though.

You have a point. I shouldn't get scared. it's just that so many rumours are going around that it's hard for me to not get nervous. I have OCD that is often triggered by religious things.

I do think that people sometimes get too worked up over things.

There is a video where Katy Perry said that she "sold her soul to the devil" as a metaphor and people thought she meant literally. And they were pointing out that the interviewer lady's earrings looked like upside down crosses. I think they might have been regular crosses on fishhook earrings or something...but maybe the quality of the video made it look like the hooks were part of the cross? Or maybe she really was wearing upside down crosses. But anyway, I don't think she meant it literally.

This thread is crazy.

True. 5 minutes & Google and anyone of relative intelligence can show you her array of influences.

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Gaga definitely utilises symbolism. The craziness (or "OCD" as Ez puts it) is that people then somehow arrive at the conclusion that this means ... oh God I don't want to even elaborate on the ridiculous conclusions because it makes me want to vomit... and I never want to vomit after eating anything with marmalade on it. It'd ruin it for me forever. In summary good artists use symbolism because it lets people read into their work from different angles, etc, etc,. Not because they're using symbols for mind control or whatever... -_-

Also Questionmark should watch Gaga singing happy birthday to a friend, the lighting is soooo creepy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZHeXnHR3WU [/lol]

^ awful

I would stick it in her pooper.

Evidence lady gaga is a man

Oh god I hope this is true haha: "there's this ex-gay ministry a few blocks from my school. I may have accidentally hacked into thier intercoms with this song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4a8QtvOkBQ) in full blast. That'll teach those a-holes something. "Don't be a drag, be a queen""

Also she admits she's got a dick. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQhx6P3Kzm0

Why is it only people outside the academic world of music that say that kind of thing? (although, please excuse me if you are a music professional) ^^

I want to see a genuine commentator within the music industry say it, in a musical/arts journal, backing it up somehow, before I take that idea seriously...

I mean for starters both of the songs have an entirely different theme.

Personally I don't auto-criticise Gaga and there's a reason for it. I go to a musical school. I'm surrounded by many people who automatically reject pop-culture, seemingly often just for the sake of rejecting pop-culture. Whereas personally I see it as the greatest medium for artistic expression to ever come into being. And I mean, people who break into pop-culture really do have more influence and all-around a better life materially than artists who are too snob-nosed and prefer their "indie" identity. F**k that. I like being an advocate for pop culture, especially when I'm around a lot of people that disagree because it's a good environment to strengthen my arguments in favour of...
