Going all against LG.<br /><br />Well, maybe the fact that she uses some "racist" words (which I didn't notice at ALL cos' i live in a "not so racist country" and I can't see how they're racist) can be, "quite fairly", debated, but people putting out <b>HERE</b> she "copied other artists.. blahblah" is just... <b>STUPID</b>... just shows you're just looking for something to make LG look bad, because some wars between pop-stars and fanaticism!<br /><br />As some other said, you should appreciate what she's trying to do and that she uses her influence for something more... Maybe this isn't the perfect "gay anthem" but <b>PERSONALLY, i don't care, i didn't request for one SO I appreciate it.</b><br /><br />And for the defense of Gaga, this is not the only thing she has made to help gay community or any other cause... just try to remember that before you attack her (or any other person) just because it's not your kind of music... Spread LOVE not hate, as gays we should really apply that if we want a better place for us<br /><br />PEACE! :)Erikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07313656021110040820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4907869562100366569.post-56804306898268261632011-02-17T10:49:47.202-08:002011-02-17T10:49:47.202-08:00I think it 's been only about one week since t...I think it 's been only about one week since this song released and this little girl covered it on youtube 2 days ago which made Lady Gaga herself cry.<br />This is so beautiful.<br />Please check this out.<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xG0wi1m-89odaichichihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16982986190420483862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4907869562100366569.post-14684138308355636952011-02-13T18:05:58.300-08:002011-02-13T18:05:58.300-08:00Hey, those of you who have a problem with the lyri...Hey, those of you who have a problem with the lyrics, the fact that she wrote this is ten minutes, or the "stealing" from other artists, just stop. Oh Bo, why don't you pick another song the be the LGBT anthem? That's right, there are no other ones. I'm sorry this song isn't EXACTLY what you wanted, but why don't you just write your own instead? Lady GaGa has people listening, and that's an extremely important step. Also, you're mad she wrote it in ten minutes. Maybe it didn't take her long to write it because she's passionate about this and didn't need any more time. Regardless, the song is what it is, and you need to stop complaining about someone who's making a name for you.kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06322568355917870316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4907869562100366569.post-590445644668207432011-02-12T16:42:07.609-08:002011-02-12T16:42:07.609-08:00This song was not as good as it was hyped up to be...This song was not as good as it was hyped up to be.

I can't help but feel a certain emptiness every time I hear an artist sing of his/her desire for someone of the opposite-sex. It hurts that I can't apply that kind of music to my own life. Gaga's song is a revolutionary step in a human direction!EamonnEdmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06854665133194546644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4907869562100366569.post-42787351093807630612011-02-11T16:32:18.323-08:002011-02-11T16:32:18.323-08:00Great song - perfect message.

I...I'm gonna start off with...I like Lady Gaga. I like most of her songs. I do not like this one.<br /><br />I'm with T-Dogg - sure, her mention of LGBT people is affirming, but it's not affirming, and quite frankly, backwards, to use racial pejoratives.<br /><br />As a counterpoint to Doc of Record's idea of Gaga "reclaiming" these terms - no. Just no. Do straight people get to reclaim fag, dyke, or queer? No. Do cisgendered individuals get to reclaim the T word? No.<br /><br />It is not okay for a majority to reclaim words that have been used by people in their group to repress and insult a minority.<br /><br />It is not okay for a white person to reclaim racial slurs, even if she is the "oh so holy and legendary" Lady Gaga.<br /><br />Also, if you want to make new "LGBT anthem"...let's take more than 10 minutes to write the lyrics, mmmkay?<br /><br />Furthermore, it's somewhat hypocritical to say that a song is going to be or just plain is an anthem for ALL LGBT people, when it's really about cis gay men. Besides listing us off, the only other LGBT reference is the line that's basically "Whether you love him or capital Him." I don't have a problem with songs being aimed at gay men, but don't pretend like it's inclusive to the queer community when it's not.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368411599603761303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4907869562100366569.post-84040365851700448662011-02-11T14:31:35.611-08:002011-02-11T14:31:35.611-08:00I love your blog for its concept and content.

I think that by throwing all those terms around, Lady Gaga is reclaiming them. Eleanor Roosevelt said: "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." By reclaiming these words, she is eliminating consent. You can't change the way I feel about myself based on these words because they are mine now. "Love yourself today/ 'Cause baby you were born this way."<br /><br />By the way, whenever I ask my 2-year-old daughter what she wants to listen to, she invariably says "Lady Gaga." <br /><br /><b>mortalityandfriends.blogspot.com</b>Doctor of Recordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14805064708931685729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4907869562100366569.post-69881853504782153962011-02-11T07:04:38.826-08:002011-02-11T07:04:38.826-08:00Affirming: Gay, straight, lesbian, transgendered.

Guess I'll have to hear it every time I walk into a gay bar now. Another classic case of how someone can say something racist without being intentionally so.<br /><br />One step forward, one step back.<br /><br />I'll just wait until someone makes an explicit gay anthem without the racial epithets.T-Dogghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04935475668103452754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4907869562100366569.post-42009244913718709072011-02-11T04:47:42.148-08:002011-02-11T04:47:42.148-08:00THANK YOU GAGA ....
