@Ayumi27: musical value isn't only built on voice either.
And since when is using synthesizers something negative in music?
I don't think she's a singer on the level of a professional vocalist, but she does have good vocals, when she's not all distorting them.
Gaga is more than just her costumes, stage props, and dancing...and honestly, I'm kind of offended that people think that way about her.
Shows what they know.
@pop: honestly, I have been waiting for Swift to show me that she can sing for a very long time. After all the lives I have seen, I remain unconvinced. I guess it's nice she can (sometimes) sing her own songs, but I definitely wouldn't listen to her sing outside of a studio track.
And my statement about Gaga having an amazing reputation "in the industry" stems from her being a composer and writer...other people might want her to win best album of the year because of her popularity, but meh. I'm personally just happy that such a talented person has managed to break into the mainstream industry. There are not many people like Gaga around at all.
She's sort of like Hikki in Japan.
But like I mentioned, it seems the Grammys is more to celebrate the successes of artists, not their musical ability. That's fine. But I think some people might have a problem with it, since it's supposed to be an awards show for music or something, and thats why they complain.
