Gaga was praised as one of the few current makers of great pop songs, by bandmember and one of the men behind ABBA’s music, Benny Andersson:

Asked about today’s pop songs, he added: 'There’s not much to remember. They have other ingredients nowadays. I don’t really get it. I can appreciate a good recording, a good groove, great sounds, good rapping, good lyrics, but I don’t know where the songs themselves are any more. All of a sudden, you hear a good Adele number, you hear Lady Gaga… Katy Perry… Wow, that’s a good recording, that’s a great song. But otherwise, I’m not sure.' 

Also this quote for the giggles: 

When Andersson occasionally goes on to Spotify to listen to the British Top Ten, he finds himself struggling to understand their popularity: 'I listen to that and I say, what’s going on here? (:laughga: us too Benny babes, us too)

It’s big praise coming from him, considering the major smash hits he’s written. The other songwriter Bjorn has also praised Poker Face in the past.

It's never going to happen, but a ABBA x GAGA collab would be fücking iconic :diane:

She can use  a sample of one of her songs but people will say she is a copycat as Madonna did it before.

 

Gaga can write amazing stuff by her own like Speechless or You and I but I realised looking at the credits of her songs  that lately there are a lot of co-writers and sometimes she isn't even the first, when she doesn't need that many people

Witness is her best album. 

People are trashing it 'cause it had moderate success, but it's a good record.

I can’t deny One of the Boys was a solid album, but I can’t say I’m a fan of any of the others :sweat: But completely respect if you do, just not my thing!

Gaga is said to be very generous with crediting. Like if you'll add a word or two she'll credit you.
