Christmas Crackers: Day 5

It's been quite a year for the eccentric Lady Gaga, and her sex-driven costumes and songs have undoubtedly helped garner a large proportion of this attention for her. Yet it seems particularly tragic when she becomes so attached to the topic that she can't even detract from blatant insinuations when she writes her own Christmas song.

With a catchy backing track that starts off very much like a Gwen Stefani solo effort, this is quickly misted over by a haze of unrefined and imprudent lyrics. Lyrics such as 'my Christmas tree is delicious' make little sense and those that do simply come across as crass. The whole song feels incredibly rushed, as if nobody bothered to put any thought into it whatsoever and gave no consideration to it's listeners. Luckily for me, it's so lackluster that I don't have many positive thoughts to contribute in return.

So if you're looking for a questionable track to startle the grandparents on Christmas Day, Lady Gaga's 'Christmas Tree' may just be the song for you.
