It's all too easy to forget now how much of an impact GaGa had in such a short period of time.

Gaga from The Fame - Born This Way is just ICONIC.

Britney owned the pop stratosphere from 98 -08, then Gaga took over from 09 - 12. And now we are in the era of Beyoncé (maybe Rihanna?). I need someone else to come in and REVIVE POP MUSIC. Because I don't want to live in a world where Katy Perry is seen as any type of pioneer for the genre.

WHY JOANNE. WHY.

-goes back to trying to like the album-

Like the Spice Girls who also had less impressive sales vs Madonna etc and whose hype died so quickly.

This is soooo true.

Gaga at her peak was undeniable in the U.K. Rihanna, Beyoncé, Katy, Taylor, Pink, Xtina Britney. None of those were anywhere near as big at their peaks just in the U.K. The Fame comfortably outsells Of their biggest single eras by some distance. An undeniable huge era and someone everyone knew of and spoken about. What an era her debut was.
