clear confession: “I’m listening to Boys for Pele in its entirety right now, and I’m just in awe. I really think this album should be looked at objectively as a masterpiece by musicologists and music critics. It’s such a rollercoaster of emotions, ideas, and sounds, yet it’s so united and simple at the same time. Not to mention that the actual quality of the album is excellent. PopMatters shouldn’t be the only one to give Pele the respect it deserves.”

Full Confession:Not to be a bitch, but, I really, really dislike Lady Gaga. I am even part of a group on facebook (more like a debate/discussion group.) I hate any comparisons between her and Tori (Wow, they both play piano and sing - does anyone say other singers are the same just because they both play guitar and sing?)   It really annoys me that a female singer/pianist (whose songs I find laughable) has become so famous in this day and age and gets so much praise and recognition when Tori hasn’t doesn’t get anywhere near as much as she deserves to. The sad thing is, Gaga actually played more classical piano style songs prior to her fame - her style now is totally different to that,  even her friends have said so. She obviously went commercial to sell records — I am proud of Tori for not changing her style and lying to herself to get fame the way she did.
