I'm frankly tired of hearing about how Lady Gaga is an 'enlightened' pop singer better than the rest. She's great for doing her part in marriage equality activism, but her songs are no better than the rest, really.
Some say Born This Way is the perfect example of 'enlightened music' today. However, not only are its lyrics cliched, one does not even have to think about it when listening to the tune. As I reported last year, even Tim Pawlenty can claim to be a fan of Born This Way.
At least you can't listen to Like My Mother Does without thinking a bit about family.
