After she mentioned Years of Refusal was her favourite record of 2009, I decided to give her a try. I don't listen to the radio or watch TV, so I knew she existed only by magazines like Rolling Stone, which I read, and from friends who liked her.
I bought the Deluxe version of The Fame Monster, which comes with the original album The Fame and I was very impressed, specially with The Fame Monster. I don't think she is pop trash, at all. Her songs have something... larger-than-life - I do believe the chorus of 'Bad Romance' can be remembered many, many years from now and only time will prove me wrong or not. Other highlight from The Fame Monster, to me, is 'Dance in the Dark' - a simple pop tune, but very, very and absolutely catchy.
'Paparazzi', from The Fame, has a delicious chorus, I think everyone should listen to it if they already haven't. The video is also good - but not as good as 'Bad Romance''s.
