I am often a staunch critic of most pop music. The majority is just filler distraction for people with no musical education or exposure to proper awesomeness. I would generally include Lady Gaga's music as equivalent junk, but sometimes you have to give credit were credit is due. She is obviously very talented, and unlike most pop stars she can actually sing. You also have to give her some credit for her passion towards philanthropy and social cause, even if it is sometimes misplaced. Don't worry, I won't be jumping around in silly get-ups and prancing about to her albums any time soon, but just for a moment I will recognize her exceptional qualities and indulge in this fine acoustic performance. Maybe she should consider releasing a wholly acoustic album in the future, it might attract a different audience to her sound.
