I like Lady Gaga, even, but I think Lady Gaga fans of all people should appreciate the avant-garde 80s artists who she references so thoroughly a lot of the time. Grace Jones in particular comes to mind, but Laurie Anderson's thoughts on consciousness and mass media definitely come into play in Gaga's smarter stuff.

I used to love MIA but while it was awesome that she had Martin Rev onstage with her, I find "Born Free" to be about the laziest sample track in a long time. Samples are totally great but she just sampled "Ghost Rider" and then did... absolutely nothing with it. I dunno, I find /\/\/\Y/\ as a whole really disappointing.

Seriously though that live performance of "O Superman" after 9/11 makes me cry every time.

I registered here just to express my delight at this post.

I also just want to say as a Millenial that I was the first person to call him out and Laurie Anderson has been rocking my world since my early teens. The under-30 set is not all philistines I swear to god.
