(30) Days of Music: Day 17

[sechan19]

Meaty.

The last song in your mp3 folder
"Summerboy," Lady Gaga.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know plenty of people who doubt my good sense for liking Gaga, but I do like her. She writes catchy pop confections that are designed for good, yet impermanent, times. (And "Summerboy" is perhaps the best example of the sense of evanescence that often imbues her pieces.) I also like that she's "crazy," that she likes boozin' and ballin' with the boys, and that she refuses to be objectified for her behavior. She is what she is, and that's all there is to it. (And yeah, I know that product figures largely in this whole scheme... I don't give a shit. I've always viewed capitalism with a kind of sorry good cheer, and I like her anyway.)
