Last May, an amazing album hit the market. "Born This Way" by Lady Gaga is a great album that encourages acceptance of others and yourself. Lady Gaga's wonderful singing and instrumental skills also shine through.

In You and I she plays a beautiful piano ballad, complete with an awesome guitar finish. Hair sings of her striving to find acceptance with her parents and to be herself. Then, there's Born This Way. This beautiful song is the new anthem in today's uprising of social-acceptance. Not only will these songs stay on your mind, but they'll encourage you to break barriers and to be yourself, no matter what.Say what you will of Lady Gaga's questionable outfits, but she'll always have her raw talent and accepting personality to back her up. Not to mention a strong fan base. Paws Up!
