I mean, let's discuss GUY. That song fucking shits I can't take it. Pre-chorus into chorus is really unexpectedly good even though we already heard the snippet. Like the extra line blasts me off to a new dimension

 

does it take you to the planet...to the planet...PENIS?

 

also, Gypsy should be the album closer and they shouldn't have even put Applause on the album TBQH

[cartoon eyes 2,540]

DOPE

[naachoboy 7,993]

i think that on Venus she say: Venus/Penis on different layers tbh

[National Anthem 9,904]

Dope is so rad, it's quite a grower tbh.

[Sitar 22,213]

Having trouble deciding potential singles apart from Gypsy

 

Swinefest tracks, I guess. Was kinda the most commercial showing. Sexxx Dreams + MANiCURE, maybe even Swine. Both Applause and Do What U Want are the most "mainstream" so I'd at least like some videos for some of the more daring tracks.

 

Let's join in prayer for non-single vids like Venus

 

does it take you to the planet...to the planet...PENIS?

 

also, Gypsy should be the album closer and they shouldn't have even put Applause on the album TBQH

 

I actually love the tracklist a lot more than I predicted based on my first reaction! I think it could be improved with Do What U Want before Dope maybe, to make the latter sound less disjointed by comparison. Otherwise there are a few genius sequences like Aura-Venus-GUY-Sexxx Dreams and Dope-Gypsy-Applause.

 

Maybe something like

 

Aura

Venus

GUY

Sexxx Dreams

Jewels N Drugs

MANiCURE

Donatella

Swine

Mary Jane Holland

Fashion!
ARTPOP

Do What U Want

Dope

Gypsy

Applause

 

But I'm pleased

[National Anthem 9,904]

I was actually thinking about the singles earlier... Here's my list for now:

 

1. Applause

2. Do What U Want

3. Gypsy

4. Venus

5. Donatella/Swine?

6. Aura?

I doubt Aura's ever going to be a single, that song has a messy release and history... but it sounds like the continuation of The Paparazzi Trilogy so we never know. I really do hope Venus, Gypsy and MANiCURE becomes a single together. Especially Gypsy.

[Heaux 1,400]

im a tad underwelmed i guess, i love the songs but we heard so much of them before it actually leaked and ive got kinda bored of my favorites already

[DUKE 2,530]

Here's a random review I typed up just now:

 

Unlike popular opinion, I think that Born This Way was a fantastic album. Even though not every song became my all-time favourite, I still think that it is technically an album packed with great songs, each of them polished to absolute perfection. That is when looking at each song in isolation. Needless to say, this album was created under entirely different conditions, yet, in retrospective, it doesn’t quite work. It really lacks a fresh breath of air here and there, amidst its seemingly never-ending tour de force of songs clamped together.

 

On ARTPOP, it seems, she selected fifteen out of those ninety or whatever songs supposedly written during its making, and moulded them into one all-encompassing work. This is where it shows that she has learned tremendously as a producer. Not only is ARTPOP giving us a break once in a while, but it’s also less of an overwhelming fix at first listen.

 

It logically divides into segments: inviting the listener to “peek underneath the cover” in “Aura,” exploring the etymology of sex and sexuality throughout the ménage à troi (no pun intended) consisting of “Venus,” “G.U.Y.” and “Sexxx Dreams,” and taking a surprising turn to urban music with “Jewels N’ Drugs” and “Do What U Want.” She cryptically, or not so cryptically after all, unfolds the ARTPOP philosophy in the title track. She has her most personal moments during the last half of the album, notably on “Dope” and “Gypsy.”

 

ARTPOP is indeed, as multiply stated throughout the past weeks, a musical journey allowing quick halts at completely different sonic settings. Even though the jumps she makes are relatively rapid and abrupt, ARTPOP doesn’t channel a sense of restlessness, particularly sonically, like Born This Way did. Besides her contemporary experiments with electronic music, or EDM as some people like to specify, the most interesting and fascinating music happens when she leaves this very territory.

 

Analogue-sounding synths accompanying her dominant piano playing on “Dope” evoke the idea of Bowie and Brian Eno recording this song with Gaga 1977 in Berlin. “Fashion!,” although drawing on contemporary music, recalls David Bowie of the late 1970s. “MANiCURE” sounds surprisingly convincing for a self-acclaimed pop artist.

 

It is refreshing to hear that this time, she is willing to have an evident sense of humour. “Donatella,” for instance is, as a matter of fact, pretty hilarious through being an unapologetically shallow ode to Donatella Versace, even though it is not entirely all fun and light-hearted. There are moments throughout the song where it takes a surprising spin into an almost melancholic and thoughtful direction. This change of musical motif is nevertheless quickly outweighed by its seamless return to being “a fun pop song.”

 

“Gypsy” and “Mary Jane Holland” represent deep confessions. Instead of pandering to the seriousness nature of their lyrical content, Gaga manages to save both songs from sinking too deeply into a black sea of depressing melodies by adding some glitter to them. The result is a remarkable mixture of styles. It is a quality that applies to all songs on ARTPOP: none of them is either too shallow or too deep. It is the balance she keeps that makes the album listenable and conclusive in its entirety.

 

Besides unfortunate ambient noise levels on some tracks and one unfortunate mistake made in vocal editing on “Mary Jane Holland,” Gaga and her producers really deliver a phenomenally produced record that features rich sound production, supported by dynamic compositions and neat song writing with truly outstanding moments, and there’s plenty of them. It is nice to hear that her singing is finally becoming more cavalier and offhand, just like at the live shows.

Who wants to help me figure out the lyrics? I'm going crazy trying to do it by myself.

[Sitar 22,213]

I want you, and everyone who is upset about Gaga's style of promo in releasing snippets and live performances in advance, to fast-forward several months into the future. You're listening to ARTPOP. In that moment, does it matter how you heard it initially? Does it matter that you made the conscious decision to listen to her teases? I mean in the end, ARTPOP is the full piece that is going to enter the Gaga/pop music conversation and so many fans are allowing a few months of promo to affect their long-term opinion. I see things like "it's good but I wish it were more of a surprise." Children don't you see it doesn't matter? Think more objectively.

SEXXX DREAMS

 

(Last night...)

Our lover's quarrel

(I was thinking about you)

Hurt more than I can say

(And it was kind of dirty)

All night

(And the way that you looked at me)

Help me here

(It was kind of nasty)

Help me here

(It was kind of trashy)

'Cause I can't help my mind from going there

 

Heard your boyfriend was away this weekend

Wanna meet at my place?

Heard that we both got nothing to do

When I lay in bed, I touch myself and think of you

 

Last night

Damn, you were in my sex dreams

(You were in my)

Doing really nasty things

(You were in my dreams)

Damn, you were in my sex dreams

Making love in my sex dreams

 

We could be caught

(I just want this to be perfect)

We're both convicted criminals of thought

('Cause I'm broken by the one before)

Let's white-glove the bed

(He was kinda nasty, ah!)

Help me here

(And I feel so trashy)

Help me here

'Cause we can't hide the evidence in our heads

 

Heard your boyfriend was away this weekend

You could turn to stone

Or the color of man petrified by a woman

In love as I am when I lay with you

I think of him, I think of him

Don't want your jewels, I want your drugs

Want your jewels, I want your drugs

And you may find it quite offensive

But I won't die at the hands of another

I'm your mother's sister, your father's brother

This family is stupid attractive

If you've surveyed the way we've acted

Keep it coming and coming around like your friend now

I think you should shut up and sit down

(x2)

Looking good and feeling fine (x3)

Looking good and feeling fine (x3)

 

You've got company, make sure you look your best

(Fashion!)

Makeup on your face, a new designer dress

(Fashion!)

There's a life for us where the couture is beyond, beyond

(Fashion!)

Married to the stars

I own the world, we own the world

 

Look at me now

I feel on top of the world in my (fashion)

(x2)

Looking good and feeling fine (x3)

Looking good and feeling fine (x3)

 

I take it off, I put it on

I feel alive when I transform

But this love's not material

Now take me in and turn me on

Zip me up, it can't be wrong

'Cause your new look's ethereal

 

(Looking good and feeling fine) (x3)

(French verse)

 

Fashion, fashion (x4)

 

 

MARY JANE HOLLAND

 

Lady of the 'dam won't be a slave to the blonde

Nor the culture of the popular

(She won't, she won't)

Sing at you, I'll fly under radar tonight

Make deals with every devil in sight

(I will, I will)

 

'Cause I love-love, 'cause I love-love

You better than, you better than

My darkest sin

Russian hookers and cheap gin

 

I think that I could be fine

If I could be your Mary Jane Holland tonight

I think we'd have a good time

If you'd meet me and Mary Jane in Holland tonight

 

Mary! Jane! Holland! (x2)

 

I don't like to boast but our travels are the most

Mad magical in Amsterdam

(She won't, she won't)

So if you have fear, Apollo, sit on my lyre

And play him like a piano, man

(I will, I will)

 

'Cause I love-love, 'cause I love-love

You better than, you better than

My darkest sin

Russian hookers and cheap gin

 

I think that I could be fine

If I could be your Mary Jane Holland tonight

I think we'd have a good time

If you'd meet me and Mary Jane in Holland tonight

 

Mary! Jane! Holland! (x2)

 

I know that Mom and Dad think I'm a mess

But it's alright because I am rich as piss

When I ignite the flame and put you in my mouth

The grass eats up my insides and my brunette starts to sprout

 

(Introducing, ladies and gentleman, Mary Jane Holland!)

 

I think that I could be fine

If I could be your Mary Jane Holland tonight

I think we'd have a good time

If you'd meet me and Mary Jane in Holland tonight

 

Mary! Jane! Holland! (x4)

 

 

DOPE

 

Cork's off, it's on

The party's just begun

I promise this drink is my last one

I know I fucked up again

'Cause I lost my only friend

God forgive my sins

 

Don't leave me

I ??? myself until I die

 

My heart would break without you

Might not awake without you

Been hurting low from living high for so long

I'm sorry and I love you

Stay with me, bell-bottom blue

I'll keep on searching for an answer

'Cause I need you more than dope

I need you more than dope, need you more than dope

I need you more than dope, I need you more than dope

 

Toast one last puff

And two last regrets

Three spirits and twelve lonely steps

Up heaven's stairway to gold

Mine myself like coal

A mountain of a soul

 

Each day I cry

I feel so low from living high

 

My heart would break without you

Might not awake without you

Been hurting low from living high for so long

I'm sorry and I love you

Stay with me, bell-bottom blue

I'll keep on searching for an answer

'Cause I need you more than dope

I need you more than dope, I need you more than dope (x2)

 

I need you more, need you more

I need you more than dope

 

 

GYPSY

 

Sometimes a story has no end

Sometimes I think that we could just be friends

"'Cause I'm a wandering man," he said to me

And what about our future plans?

Does this thing we have even make sense

When I got the whole world in front of me?

 

So I said, "I don't wanna be alone forever

But I can be tonight

I don't wanna be alone forever

But I love gypsy life

I don't wanna be alone forever

Maybe we could see the world together."

I don't wanna be alone forever

But I can be...

Tonight, tonight

 

So I just packed my baggage and

Said goodbye to family and friends

And took a road to nowhere on my own

Like Dorothy on the Yellow Brick

Hope my ruby shoes get us there quick

'Cause I left everyone I love at home

 

And I don't wanna be alone forever

But I can be tonight

I don't wanna be alone forever

But I love gypsy life

I don't wanna be alone forever

Maybe we could see the world together

I don't wanna be alone forever

But I can be...

Tonight, tonight

 

'Cause I'm-I'm-I'm, I'm-I'm-I'm a gypsy-gypsy-gypsy, I'm

I'm-I'm-I'm, I'm-I'm-I'm a gypsy-gypsy-gypsy, I'm (x3)

 

And then he asked me, he said

"Baby, why do we love each other?"

I said, "Honey, it's simple

It's the way that you love and treat your mother."

 

Thought that I would be alone forever

But I won't be tonight

I'm a man without a home but I think

With you, I could spend my life

And you'll be my little gypsy princess

Pack your bags and we can chase the sunset

Bust the rearview and fire up the jets

'Cause it's you and me...

 

Baby, for life

(Would you go with me?)

Tonight

(See the world with me)

 

'Cause I'm-I'm-I'm, I'm-I'm-I'm a gypsy-gypsy-gypsy, I'm

I'm-I'm-I'm, I'm-I'm-I'm a gypsy-gypsy-gypsy, I'm

 

Russia, UK, Paris

I'm Italian, Asian, kanpai!

Africa, India

I'm a gypsy-gypsy-gypsy

I'm Latin American

I don't speak German but I try

Someday in Jakarta

I'm American, I'm gypsy

Bangkok, Australia, Malaysia

Sweden, Finland, Norway

Be my home just for the day

I'm a gypsy-gypsy-gypsy, hey!

 

 

APPLAUSE

 

I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong

To crash the critic saying, "Is it right or is it wrong?"

If only fame had an IV

Baby, could I bear

Being away from you

I found the vein, put in here

 

I live for the applause, applause, applause

I live for the applause-plause

Live for the applause-plause

Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me

The applause, applause, applause

 

Give me that thing that I love

(I'll turn the lights out)

Put your hands up, make 'em touch

(Make it real loud)

(x2)

 

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E)

Make it real loud!

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E)

Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

(x2)

 

I've overheard your theory, nostalgia's for geeks

I guess, sir, if you say so, some of us just like to read

One second I'm a Koons

Then suddenly the Koons is me

Pop culture was in art

Now art's in pop culture in me

 

I live for the applause, applause, applause

I live for the applause-plause

Live for the applause-plause

Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me

The applause, applause, applause

 

Give me that thing that I love

(I'll turn the lights out)

Put your hands up, make 'em touch

(Make it real loud)

(x2)

 

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E)

Make it real loud!

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E)

Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

(x2)

 

Touch, touch

Touch, touch now

 

I live for the applause, applause, applause

I live for the applause-plause

Live for the applause-plause

Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me

The applause, applause, applause

 

Give me that thing that I love

(I'll turn the lights out)

Put your hands up, make 'em touch

(Make it real loud)

(x2)

 

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E)

Make it real loud!

(A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E)

Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch

(Make it real loud!)

Make it real loud!

Put your hands up, make 'em touch

 

A-R-T-P-O-P

 

 

Probably didn't illuminate anyone's serious lyrical WTFs because I still have a few, but at least it's organized.
