This review noted "Bringing her Monster's Ball tour back to Dublin, she teeters around in a skimpy nun outfit, simulates a sex act with a bald German named Michael (both spattered in fake blood), and plays heavy rock guitar dressed as an S&M Dalek.
Such shock and awe exhibitionism might reek of desperation if Gaga didn't have the songs to back up her pretensions.
However, over a debut album and a follow-up EP, she has demonstrated uncanny gifts as a pop writer: the lyrics to 'Bad Romance' may read like Emily Dickinson by way of Marilyn Manson
, yet it's got one of those choruses that demands to be blared at maximum volume when you're popping out to the supermarket with the kids."The Spaghetti Incident is simply just hanging out for the release of Gaga's Born this Way.
Set List borrowed with love from Swear I'm Not Paul.
