Not popular??? Then how everybody knows which song are we talking about?

And not recent, more to the point, that would make it..... a Classic?

From Wikipaedia:

Quote:

Music producer Rob Fusari, who helped her write some of her earlier songs, compared her vocal style to that of Freddie Mercury. Fusari helped create the moniker Gaga, after the Queen song "Radio Ga Ga". The singer was in the process of trying to come up with a stage name, when she received a text message from Fusari that read "Lady Gaga".[16]

Every day, when Stef came to the studio, instead of saying hello, I would start singing "Radio Ga Ga". That was her entrance song. [Lady Gaga] was actually a glitch; I typed 'Radio Ga Ga' in a text and it did an autocorrect so somehow 'Radio' got changed to 'Lady'. She texted me back, "That's it." After that day, she was Lady Gaga. She’s like, "Don’t ever call me Stefani again."[16]

Well that's a great tidbit, there, about the auto-correcting!

I like it.

As for the "not popular" remark, well according to

Radio Ga Ga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

it never got higher than 16th on the US singles charts, and I personally can only remember the annoying chorus and the ridiculous video (with a tie-in to Giorgio Moroder's remake of Metropolis).

I do see that it got as high as 2nd on the UK charts, though. But then they note

(kept from the number one spot only by Frankie Goes To Hollywood's smash hit "Relax")

At which point, I rest my case!

Does she have to pay Roger Taylor royalties?

(I think he forgot to write a real drum line for it!)

And here it is!

Ah, the irony of an inane song complaining about inane songs on the radio...

Lady Gaga has announced that she is celibate. That’s what happens when you dress like the furniture in Liberace’s house.

You can be a sex symbol without having sex – at least, that’s what Lady Gaga is out to prove. The singer

, who’s famous for her scandalous outfits and just posed topless for Q Magazine, told the Daily Mirror that she's sworn off good lovin' for her whole tour.

"I'm single," said Gaga, 23. "I haven't got time to spend on the road to get to know anyone. Even Lady GaGa

can be celibate, you don't have to have sex to be loved."

Lady Gaga recently ended an on-again-off-again relationship with Matthew Williams, a member of her personal creative team. She says that she has enough self-confidence to be without a man right now – and besides, her fans provide all the love she needs. "The thing that keeps me warm at night is my sense of self. When I see my beautiful fans I feel how much they protect and mean to me. It would be irresponsible if I didn't protect them and teach young people to be self-expressive, to love yourself."

While Lady Gaga wants to inspire her fans, she’s inadvertently inspired someone else: the Muppets. Word has leaked that the next Muppet movie, helmed by Jason Segel, will feature Miss Piggy as a “Lady Gaga-esque character living in Europe.”

Should "Telephone" book a ride to the top, Lady Gaga, with her first six Pop Songs entries, would tie Mariah Carey for most No. 1s in the chart's history.

She dresses weird but I really love her music. I don't think she's got one song I don't like.
