I Speak To You With Song
Some people love to chat by text; others on the phone.
Some talk all day long cause they cant stand to be alone.
I’m not too much of a conversationalist - face-to-face or any of the above for long. I’d rather sit and write in melody and speak to you with a song.

Your songs are incredible and you are my favorite singer Alisa. Thank you for sharing with us pieces of you.
This was really cute
I love to talk by text because I dont have to deal with a lot of talk back
How cliche.
Seriously... How old are you?
Sorry, but you can't win or lady gaga, your voice are good but yours songs... stay off
From INK:
Well, I came to know you by reading the news about your singing challenge with lady Gaga so I came here to see your tremendous talent. I am very careful in judging people, especially someone's talent so rest assured that I have made a good research about your music quality before I dare to give these comments to you.
Firstly, you said that lady Gaga is a plastic and a cheap product of the music industry these days which has become obsessed with sex drugs and well others "unreal stuffs". You want people to listen to your music and feel it, from the souls: beautiful words,but... cliche. Sorry, i have got to say despite your good intention or illusion of making this world a better place (this world is forever rotten so don't worry, there would never be a not rotten society), it still has nothing to do with Lady Gaga. Because if "plastic thing" is your reason then you know there are a lot of singers out there who are just like that... or even worse. But you aimed at lady gaga. You have good intention huh? Go and challenge all of them, why not Justin Bieber hahahaha I don't care about your defense so expressing it is uncessary.
Secondly, I listened to several of your songs (live and studio recording) and I felt it was quite funny because even when you mention about the soulful aspect of "true music", I don't think you are that good to be able to claim so. You may think you have talent and deserve it. But you cannot see yourself more clearly than another person who stands outside yourself (others) so well, if you want to think of yourself as a talented person, I have no idea. But You are not anyway and that is my personal idea so there is no point in arguing about this (as different people have different tastes). Don't give me all those theory about people cannot do something then they go and tell you that you cannot, please. Those stuffs should be for kids and extracted from textbooks. I am a listener and I have total right in judging you.
Thirdly, I don't think Lady Gaga (I am not a big fan of her anyway but what is true is true, even it depends on different people)'s music is cheap. There are some of her songs, the motions are very stiffs and "industrialized" and "sexually suggestive" but her music has a catchy tune and it leaves long impression on me, and a lot of people. Cheap things cannot last long impression, ex: Your confusion music video. I immediately forgot it when I fnished it. And what the things you talked about when music includes sex and all those "dirty stuffs", well, look again at your confusion video then claiming it. It even contains more sexually suggestive stuffs than some of Lady Gaga'videos.(at least she does not show her bodies in such an indecent way-anyway you did not show it but it is still your music video so well, don't tell me that you are pure and know nothing about this-which is impossible). The person that you challenge is quirky, a real eccentric one (I do not think she is faking it because faking at such extreme is incredibly hard-and well even if she fakes it then it is still talented haha, more than you). You should listen to how insane her style of playing the piano and the random motives and expressions, I suggest search the song speechless (which she writes for her father) and hear her sing live. Then you can compare your music to hers when she is not "cheap" (in your words). I bet she is 10 times better than you in expressing her emotions when she chooses to do so. And those types of song have some quality about it. They are not all empty and cheap like you said. And if they are, then your music is even cheaper. it is a bitter truth but having someone to tell you the truth is good
4th: I came across your blog and a lot of people praised you (tsk tsk), I am speechless. well, if you go and look at your entries, quite a lot, you mostly criticize the cheap quality of music these days, how some singers nowadays do not really have talents, how they lip sync (kane west sth) and think they are good (or genius) still the public prefers those kinds of music rather than "your kind" (confusion and billi hahah-I am sick of your billi anyway-not good at all). You also have quite a big illusion of briging beauty into this world by your music and send it to millios of people, do you think all world population are idiots. How old are you? I bet you have experiences life and there are a lot of people who are smarter than you and know what music is; a lot of them can create beautiful and good music too so yeah making everything so negative and promoting yourself (you cast as a good guy and a lot of others as black guy) is ironic. If there are a huge number of people who like someone else's music and not yours, there must be reasonable reasons for it and rather than lashing out on all the people who have those awards (whome you think don't deserve of course-but still better than you anyway haha), you need to look at the truth about your music first. You do not have a distinct voice that set you apart from milliosn people and that is star quality. Mariah Carey is Mariah because she is, Celine Dion is Celine because She is, eminem is him because he is, Lady gaga is herself because she is. I listen to their voice then I can recognize but yours-a big no. You do not have that and it is time for you to face it and do something about it rather than writing on your blog (your right anyway) about all these stuffs about others singers, the bitter truth about the music industry and your good intention, your pains (who cares- a lot of people would, a lot would not haha), your passion for music, your criticism and later than do exactly what you just criticized (confusion) so well, before you say and challenge someone, please consider your ability first.
I don't come here because I am a fan of Lady Gaga. I come here because I see all those writings in your blogs and it puts a pain in my ass so yeah, good for you. A lot of "good" people would support you who can enjoy your innocent and beautiful music but yeah do not come and argue with me. this is my personal point of view so there is no use in doing so. I do not regret in missing your beautiful music at all. Listening to them makes my head quite dizzy, geez
PS:Want to know what is true sensational music that touches your soul and shakes it deeply inside, try a typical one called "you lost me "by Christina Aguilera. When you finish and think that you cando better than her, go challenge Lady Gaga.
From INK:
You call youself the underdog against the unreal one? (you and lasy gaga) nah nah sorry but poor you yo are not that smart to be called the underdog lol so yeah, it rquires eccentricty which you obviously don't have
I go to Youtube to search for your video then no result appears then I search again well finally, then I listen to it, yeah around more than 1000 views, amazing number lol keep it up. and seriously read those comments on youtube; They are proofs for your disillusion in believing a lot of people would admire and love you. Wrong
You need to know what you're talking about before you mouth off about the music industry and other singers. I might have liked you had I heard about you some other way, but your recent comments about Lady Gaga came off as really catty, unnecessary, and ignorant.
Music and other art has always been produced for money. Most of the great works that are passed through the centuries survive because they were produced for wealthy patrons. Rembrandt didn't paint most of the works he signed, he had a legion of apprentices churning out paintings. There have always been people turning art into "a machine". There's nothing inherently wrong with that. Don't think you can change anything.
Furthermore, if you're going to choose someone to "feel sorry for" because she's a "plastic doll", why choose Lady Gaga? She worked her way up performing in clubs. She was writing songs for other singers before her label gave her a chance - she wasn't "generated" by the music industry, she was the one doing the "generating" by writing material for other performers. She was defining her image before she was signed to her current label, the only thing that changed was that she got more money to work with. She fought with her label about her image and how she wanted to appear on her album cover, and she won. She writes all her own material, and many of the hits off her debut album were written before she was signed to her current label.
Know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.
Just saying that anyone is a "plastic doll" "generated" by the music industry is really presumptuous and pretentious. It's insulting and dehumanizing. Pop singers are active agents in their own lives, not mindless and passive like you imply.
The way you talk sounds like you have no respect for other human beings. So there's no reason why anyone should respect you.
i think your a super awesome singer and writer! waay better than lady gaga. you're sooo good! I think it's good you challenged LADY GAGA because her music is really fake compared to your songs. very good! But i think you should be a bit nicer to her but don't back down!!! I think you could totally win against her!!
I guess you think 'bad publicity is better than no publicity'. And I guess you're one of those people who try to 'change the world' and woo others with your soulful words and cliche music. Ha. Maybe you should stick to dentistry.
One more thing, did you write your biography? With the gushing self praise? That's pathetic.
"Committed"
Snap,crackle and pop.
Unknown nicknames of the human mind.
Push me with stress.
Guilt me with pain.
Imprison me with your love.
Peace to all the insanity.
I need a daily break.
Curse me with your anger.
Trap me in the mind game.
Freedom is the target.
Silence is a downfall.

wow, your challenge for lady gaga surely has attracted quite a lot of attention huh, exactly what you wanted? If you are serious aout your challenge and want to win, i suggest practicing 24/24 without sleeping, eating and breathing hahahahaha. but anyway, I think it is better for lady gaga not to respond to your stupid challenge as she can come to youtube and search for your "true ability" easily->no point in proving her musical talent to you (I don't think you deserve it anyway).
So do not use others as a tool to attract attention. You said you did not on news and only wanted to prove to the world what real music is. Wow. You think you are an angel? Evryone is devil or fool?
Tsk tsk
obviously you are jealous of lady gaga because she is way more talented than you. In fact, you are not talented at all, definitely not enough to become a real singer. Music courier is not for you, you should go find something else to do.
Alisa you are an incredible singer and you know that and so do your fans. Your voice is incredible and you work hard. Lady Gaga and all these music generated singers can finally go down. We want true singers, if my money is going somewhere it will be with you.
Ah yes, Alisa Apps and her army of accounts spouting her praise! What a very humble thing to do. *sarcasm hand raised*
I have only recently found out about Alisa, through a random search on Native Americans.
I love your voice, Alisa. It truly is soulful, and it would be such a shame if you listened to any of these... immature children who only bicker and point fingers with a mob mentality.
I will be praying for your success.

How do you know that we are children? Oh, kids often tell other kids are kids themselves (without realaizing that they are also kids). And by the way, if we are chilren including pople who prefer lady gaga's fans (they are not all beggars and uneducated hehehe, then what are you hehe? You are telling me millions of people who buy lady gaga's records are idiots and children. well, tsk tsk poor old man. enjoy being old anyway. if someone tells me that i am a kid and that i am childish hehe, thank you for that because that means I'm young. I'm too young to be old. Or if being old is being like you, then i prefer to stay young.
A truth is a truth. Alissa Apps may have singing abilities (who say that she cant? No one. Anyone who is not mute can sing, as long as he has witnessed another human perform the same action, or learn from it through education; it is the function of the mind)but that does not mean she is better than Lady gaga. and she is not. because if she is then we might say someone's talent has been thrown into the garbage bin by this society and this society is where you are living. rememeber that, old man.
And when someone says that alissa PPs is not that talented as she thinks (people who have listened to her music and think about her her abilities), then that person is not neccessarily wrong. it depends on everyone's tastes. You got it? And of course old man you can think that she is talented (it is your right and yout taste), but by saying that everyone else is children then you are lowering the level of yoursef -i doubt that you have any levels left . You don't have a of super mentality to underestimate other people, do you? Are you genius of this era in music?if you are, pointing anyone and claiming that their tastes are childish is reasonable as you have a super good ability. if you are not, then claiming it is a little bit fucking moron-head. hehe
nah nah, poor ya.
continue to pray for her as i know most people when they pray even have time to pray for alissa apps. hahahaha. i don't go to sleep and pray for a singer. jeez Are you jesus christ? can i have your signature?heheheh
Alisa All the way guys!!!!!!!!!!
You have a way with words that nobody else has... and we love you for it.
