Interscope Drops Marry The Night

The recent hit flop single ‘Marry the Night’ has just been recently dropped from being played on radio stations across the world due to the unsuccessful charting debuts it’s had. ‘Marry the Night’ hadn’t charted in the Top 10 and debuted low in all charts, and being #15 in the UK’s Big Top 40 Charts, the highest it has been.

Many companies such as iTunes and Amazon have been recently dropping the prices all over the world to try and help boost sales, but this just simply didn’t work out. Additionally, MTN Request Days were also planned by Monsters on Twitter to try and get a free promotion for Lady Gaga, but this again simply didn’t help to boost them as much as possible. 

With the amazing linear 14 minute video and the sensational sounds of Marry the Night, it will always be an iconic track from Gaga’s latest album, ‘Born This Way’!       YEAH RIGHT!!!

Ripping Off or Sampling?


Stefani released a song from The Fame era as a gift to her monsters for Christmas.  The song is called Take You Out. To my utter dismay, I mean, how can it be that the song sounds almost exactly like Kool & The Gang's Let's Go Dancing
Some monsters are saying that the song is sampled.  I'm not so sure.  It's pretty identical for it to be just sampling.


Now that I think of it, Stefani also released another song at Christmas called Stuck on Fuckin' You.  I gave it a listen and thought where have I heard this before?  Oh, I know, KT Tunstall's Black Horse and a Cherry Tree.  Stefani's song is a slowed down version and there's a part in the song where I could swear it was Courtney Love adding her vocals. 




Thanks Pike for sending this to me. 

Oh wait!!  I forgot about this one.



I guess that's two in the bag for Kool & The Gang. 

Loser


This person deserves to be made fun of.

Let's Talk About Gaga's Mess of a Performance on New Year's Eve


What should have happened is Dick Clark shoves her inside the Times Square ball and at the stroke of midnight, they blast her up into the stratosphere and right out of the music industry.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! 

The 20 Worst Albums of 2011

7. Lady Gaga
Born This Way

This turkey opens with “Marry the Night” (in which Gaga calls herself a “warrior princess” (SIC)*, presumably with a straight face) and only gets more ridiculous from there. Gaga has little sense of originality and so the regurgitated dance beats from previous chart hits and words from the Island of Misfit Lyrics are hardly a surprise, though they certainly are grating. The Cher retread title song wouldn’t be so offensive if it were, say, used as background music in a shampoo commercial and not passed off as real music, the way that you’ll take free samples of budget pizza at the grocery store but would never actually buy it yourself. The patchwork lyrics and styles are further examples of an artist who tries to be all things to everyone, whether on the torpid, turgid Madonna rip-off “Bloody Mary”, “Highway Unicorn (Road to Love)”, or the plain stupid “Heavy Metal Lover”. All this would be much easier to take if she had named herself Lady Dada as the absurdity, the sheer mindlessness of her music, would be easier to take. Painfully disposable.
