I am a great admirer of Lady Gaga, What I write now will most likely come to nothing, but if you don't try you won't know.
I am a male in my mid 50's now and growing up in the 70's there was a singer and songwriter by the name of Clifford T. Ward. I have always loved his music and every time I hear one of his songs I think to myself ''what if Lady Gaga were to sing one of his songs'' I thought that if she were to listen to his words and music she would love his work as much as I have.
So here I am, as we Irish would say, chancing my arm, hoping that by some remote chance that my Lady Gaga may come across this. I love the idea of her discovering Clifford T. Ward, listening to his music and thinking ''WOW!'
And, you never know.

The awards, now in their eleventh year, are one of the country’s most prestigious music prizes and celebrate both French and international music.
Also among the winners this year was Rihanna for International Female Artist of the Year and Beyonce Knowles who scooped the NRJ Award of Honour.
However, the event was overshadowed by a blunder that saw the Black Eyed Peas wrongly named Best International Group, a prize which was meant to be given to German band Tokio Hotel.
Choreographer Kamel Ouali, who announced the award, realised his mistake after no one came to collect the award. He returned to the stage to apologise and name the real winners.
Lady Gaga, who could not attend the ceremony as she was performing in New York, will be touring the UK later this year, starting at Manchester’s MEN Arena on February 18th
