She is ugly. If she was the the last moving thing in the universe I wouldn't .

Lady Gaga plays basic piano at best. And she's ugly to boot.

I am competent enough to let you know that Lady Gaga is a better piano player than Rachmaninoff, but not Liszt.

I'm waiting for the new Justin Bieber prog album. Supposed to have Rick Wakeman on keys, Andy Latimer on guitars, Bill Bruford on drums and Chris Squire on bass.

Damn! I was just going to flip on The Police's Ghost in the Machine there... Oh well I'll do so anyways. Back on topic: Gaga in a progressive setting? Does she/he have a weener? Did she play the oboe on Relayer? Is Fernando the long lost vocal piece in the middle of Moonchild?

We should probably go back to arguing between Yes and Genesis rather than having a conversation about GaGa huh?

Ah. Lady Gaga.
Been a long time since anyone discussed her on the forum, heh? It was really needed.
Oh, by the way, what happened in the last MLP episode?

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

He's a disembodied soul of music's past come to enlighten us.

Rachmoninov and Franz Lizst changed my life forever when I heard them play.
They are the reason that I can write 24 chord chord structures that modulate between keys. Rachmoninov specifically had hands so large that 99% of even the BEST piano players in the world can't play everything he wrote based off sheer hand size. |
How old are you? Franz List died sometime in the1880s and Sergei Rachmaninoff died in the 40s. Well maybe you could have heard Sergie if you're over 60 years old. I think you're talking about their compositions. They both wrote on the piano. I think it is their compositions you are fond of.

I'm pretty sure I read that Lady Gaga tried to make it as a piano-based singer-songwriter, but career didn't exactly take off. Then she decided to go for broke with image and here she is.
Anyone who has done regular gigs at their instrument is going to have some skills. Meaning she could probably kick all of our amateur arses easily. Comparing her to other professional key players is another matter, and I doubt she would even make that claim.
She created an entertainment product that has worked very well in this place and this time.

Exactly.
If I learnt something from ProgArchives was to be open-minded, even it took a long time, and am still learning.

Even if I don't know who Sorabji is, I know what you mean and that's exactly my view.
Sometimes proggers think that prog musicians are the best on everything, why question MTV that they put pop music? Dude, it's pop for some reason. There was a time were Collins-era Genesis was on MTV, Dire Straits, not anymore. These are trends.
Why don't ask for classical or jazz music on MTV? Blues? Death metal? Post rock? etc, etc..
And by the way, the last time I saw MTV actually putting on some music was like 4 years ago, here in Argentina it's like complete oddity were they put on lame American shows.

She's the best thing to happen since Celine Deon isn't she?
