Copycat from Ballarat?


Lady GaGa. She's lovely, she's attractive and she makes slightly annoying fizzy pop music. However, I want to know whether she's also a bit of a music thief, or a sufferer of coincidence.


I can't question her huge hits 'Just Dance' and 'Eh Eh', however with her latest offering 'Love Game' I became suspicious of her credibility.


Before I explain what I'm talking about I need you to be familiar with the incredibly odd but mind blowingly brilliant 'Mighty Boosh' television show. If you're not already familiar I urge you to watch it for your own sake anyways, however for the purpose of this exercise I only ask you to view this piece of brilliance from an episode entitled 'Old Gregg'.



I think you'll all agree quite humourous and intensely weird.


Right. So, Lady GaGa. Let's check out the filmclip for her new song 'Love Game'. Pay particular attention to the song after 50 seconds.



Now is it just me, or has Lady GaGa taken some 'inspiration' from the cerebral brilliance that is the Mighty Boosh, or is it all a coincidence? I'll let you decide and leave you with this. I think it's fair to say that whatever the case, the lines:
"Let's have some fun, this beat is sick, I wanna take a ride on your disco stick" from 'Love Game' have to be some of the best lyrics since Nickleback's:
"I want the hottie with the million dollar body."
Nice one Gaga.


'Nuff said
