Pure Adrenaline 1,518 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Gaga considers herself a songwriter, and over four albums she has by her own estimate written “90 per cent†of her songs. But this year, she’s done double duty, alternating between singing her own material on ArtRave and along with Bennett, performing standards from the Great American Songbookâ€â€songs written in an era before a premium was placed on singers also being songwriters. Gaga sees a value in both kinds of music, with one caveat: “If you’re not gonna write your own music,†she tells me, “you better be able to blow. Because if you can’t blow, there’s no reason to do the job. But then you think about artists that can’t really sing, that have songs written for them, and it’s like, well why are they artists? Why are companies paying money to promote them? Because they’re beautiful and look good on camera and are kinda-sorta singing along? It’s like karaoke for pretty girls. When you’re a singer-songwriter it doesn’t really matter if you’re beautiful. What matters is that you create a relationship with your fans, and they care what you have to say.†It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyliesChild 16,907 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I agree. I was going to say that she was hinting at shading Katy but she writes some of her songs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 680 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 What matters is that you create a relationship with your fans, and they care what you have to say. If you can do that is doesn't matter if you write the songs or are a great singer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essence 148 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Lies? I see none. To elaborate I like how she has emphasized how she does have respect for the talented vocalist even if they don't write music, she just has disdain for a society that promotes beautiful people who can't sing or write. Amen to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
