December 30, 2010 at 12:17AM EST Reply to Commentwtf? radiohead!? are you serious? how could you forget that they have an album ready to release any second?
katie, a princess They have not indicated AT ALL that they'd be putting out a traditional album this year. Yes, they have been in the studio forever, but they were in the studio forever last year and only released a song or two. If they (or their handlers) had officially mentioned they'd definitely have one in 2011, it'd be in here.

December 31, 2010 at 4:41PM EST Reply to Commentboring obvious list... britney spears? come on! she doesn't even write her own stuff, she just go to the studio when she have to "sing", and that's all she does, she's boring and gaga i hope she doesn't write more songs stuttering in was OK for ONE album then girl??
mark She does write some of her songs. I actually like the fact that her songs are all written by different writers bc you can listen to the whole album without it all sounding the same. That why her albums are the best.

January 5, 2011 at 5:04AM EST Reply to CommentWhen I want to be inspired by music, I listen to U2. When I want to be depressed (in a good way), I listen to Adele. When I want to rebel, I listen to Green Day. When I want to just dance and listen to damn great beat songs, I listen to Britney Spears. By far, her best album is Blackout, and if her 7th album even comes close to that, 2011 will be her year. I'm sorry I'm not a monster. I believe I'm beautiful in and out. We call people that we despised monsters. What's cool about being a little monster?
January 12, 2011 at 10:32PM ESTStephanie Oh Cheryl, seems like you haven't read Roger's message well. I think his point is that Lady Gaga is just promoting ugliness, and not the physical kind. Her behavior is nothing less than a monster. She intentionally goes to a baseball game wearing a two-piece and giving the finger. She consistently uses the F-word in her concerts for no reasons at all. Lady Gaga is a real monster. She makes her fans as if their inferior and then she tries to make them think that she is there to empower them. Sorry, my friend, but that's the truth. I'm not a big Britney fan, although I listened to her Blackout album, and it was quite good. I looked it up on dictionary.com, and here's what a monster means: .
January 29, 2011 at 5:45AM ESTa legendary animal combining features of animal and human form or having the forms of various animals in combination, as a centaur, griffin, or sphinx.
2.
any creature so ugly or monstrous as to frighten people.
3.
any animal or human grotesquely deviating from the normal shape, behavior, or character.
4.
a person who excites horror by wickedness, cruelty, etc.
5.
any animal or thing huge in size.
I, too, would hate to call myself nor my children monsters. Would you?
