Default Lady GaGa ~ Born This Way

Thoughts? Love it? Hate it? Hate Gaga? Don't care?

I know a lot of people hate LG, but I don't care. Give your opinions.

I'm neutral to Lady Gaga and like a lot of her songs.

However, I can't say I'm really feeling Born This Way. Rather than sounding original and unique like you would expect given its title and Gaga's entire persona, it sounds exactly like Express Yourself by Madonna (or Waterfalls by TLC, God is a DJ by Pink, When Love Takes Over by Kelly Rowland, take your pick)....

I listened to it once and don't really care to listen again after :/

It's listenable. Not loving or hating it at the moment.

This song sounds generic to me and it's also a clone of Express Yourself by Madonna. It sounds kinda small and the fact the she ripped off Madonna makes it worse. She hurt herself with this. She lost credibility.

I love every single song Lady Gaga has put out so far but I am not really into this one. Now I have only heard it twice so maybe after the 20th listen I will love it but I am kinda disappointed. I hope the rest of the cd is alot better.

See everyone is going with Express yourself... I think it sounds a lot more like Vogue... At least IMO.

It's good though, I like it

I think it has elements of Vogue and Deeper and Deeper, the song is very underwhelming its OK but that's all.

I like Gaga, but I can't listen to this. God awful.

I hated The Fame, but really liked The Fame Monster. This is disappointing, not what I had imagined.

I like the song but I'm disappointed in it too. I just don't think it's anywhere near the amount of hype that it's received (#bornthiswayfriday has been trending on Twitter all week) and it's just not that original. I think Gaga is an innovative artist, I respect what she does and I like the positive message she's trying to send here, but there's not a whole lot new to it. Plus, yeah, it sounds like a Madonna megamix, which certainly doesn't make it any less enjoyable, but this is Gaga. It doesn't have to.

Never been a fan of Gaga or Madonna. But while we are on the subject, I must say I still love this:

I agree! And thank you for taking us down memory lane. They showed my girl Vivica with 50 Cent twice in the audience.
