Yeah in the eyes of people who easily buy into hype. Taylor has inspiration behind her lyrics which are far more witty and poetic than Lady "i wanna take a ride on your disco stick" GaGa :lol:

 

You can't actually be serious. :blink:

 

GaGa's music is actually conceptual and has a point to it, Taylor Swift... erm, no. Take that 'Teardrops On My Guitar' song for a prime example.

Swifty and Gaga are both different artists who make great music. These 2 pages of debating (arguing) is just not helping. :rolleyes:

She has sold far more albums than Gaga in both the US and Worldwide. Albums are far more important than singles. How is Gaga the only deserving winner? As someone said, Taylor is on an independent label and has still had so much success - that's quite an achievement.

 

I'm sure Gaga will win it (the BRITs have shiiit taste) but Taylor winning would be a breath of fresh air.

 

Taylor has been around since 2006, though and, let's face it, is Z-list compared to GaGa outside the US. Besides, Taylor sold 9million WW with two albums, Lady GaGa 8million with one (TFM is a re-release, not a stand-alone, at a stretch it is an EP, which isn't an album).

 

If you're trying to argue that Taylor Swift is more successful, I'm going to have to stop you there...

 

Breath of fresh air in what way?? She's boring and can't sing live. GaGa has had the most successful singles run since the Spice Girls in 13 months.

 

If album sales mean so much, compare Swift to GaGa IN THE UK...

Surely this agruement should be in the brits forum.

Last time I read this thread it was an iTunes topic, can we not go off random. Thank you.

So she gave 1 lousy performance and all of a sudden she can't sing live, if that were the case everybody in the world could be accused of not being able to sing live including GaGa.

 

Anyway I hope Timbo can get back to #2 soon.

Taylor sings badly in the vast majority of performances, people are just clocking on to it now because The Grammy's is such a big thing and everyone saw it.

 

I can't think of a particularly bad vocal performance for GaGa.

 

Anyway, i'm glad to see Telephone holding up instead of rising then falling like in the past.

someone needs to check their figures. taylor swift has sold over 10.1 million albums in the US alone. add in her canada sales (3 times plat), her australian success (more than gaga) and any other sales she has picked up in the last couple of years and she is well past 12 million sales.

 

neither is my thing, but if you are gonna post things like 9million WW make sure you can actually back it up.

Rude Boy will hit the top ten by next week. ^_^

I'm actually not really sure if I prefer GaGa or Taylor, but why the f*** are people even arguing? Apart from the fact they're both women, they're worlds apart.

Glee have crossed the line now. After weeks of covers of average - rubbish songs, how dare they touch the sacred cow that is 'Walking on Sunshine.'

:w00t: That's amazing! I hope they get higher! :wub:

I'm getting pissed off at the Glee invasion now :/

I love the show but it's very irritating to have their mauling the charts week after week.
