[xaosslug]

I think Christina Aguilera deserves a huge apology from everyone.

finally.

 

[You Know Nothing]

Forget everything.

Röyksopp and Susanne Sundfør won with Never Ever. But Gags still came.

 

[cory64]

Rated R is still holding up for me. How does she do it? Uggh

I had a moment with Russian Roulette the other day and it's not even a song I usually fuck with either. The album truly goes in.

 

[Meowster]

I think Christina Aguilera deserves a huge apology from everyone.

Why? I mean, everyone should worship the ground she walks on for releasing the greatest song of her group (Britney, Backstreet, NSYNC) with Come On Over (All I Want is You) but that should just be common knowledge.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

is rated r the one with drunk on love? cuz that song shits

 

[AyaisMUsikWhore]

Not Perfect Delusion being a bad imitation of Amanda Miguel El Me Mintió

So Gaga basically translated this song? Lol

It's a boring song....but I liked it. Her vocals sounded so dead and tragic tho.

 

[Dr. Malik]

Perfect Illusion

thank god Röyksopp came with quality tonight

 

[Professor Beef]

I like PI. I'm not a huge fan of the breakdown a little after the 1 minute mark, but I like the song as a whole.

 

[WhereAreMahDragonz]

Forget everything.

Röyksopp and Susanne Sundfør won with Never Ever.

u right

 

[Koodo]

Not Perfect Delusion being a bad imitation of Amanda Miguel El Me Mintió

I'M SCREAMING.

 

[Bear Force One]

Her vocals are SHAMING all others.

Fuck this gets better every listen.

 

[Koodo]

Her vocals are SHAMING all others.

[Matt_]

I like it
don't love it
certainly wasn't what I expected on first listen but after conditioningrepeated listens it grew on me
vying for fourth place with Born This Way as far as lead singles go

 

[rhandino]

Someone called her the Godney Houston of pur generation.

I am done.

 

[Bear Force One]

Laugh all you want.

 

[Mau ®]

Terrible. All those talented involved for THAT?

Anyway, I'm still perched for the album.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I love it tbh

 

[Dany]

We need the Lorde to save us.

when will that kiwi arrive???

 

[Blood Diamonds]

[Bridge]
Where are you?
Cause I can't see you
It was a perfect illusion
But I feel you watchin' me
Dilated, falling free
In a modern ecstasy
Where are you?
Cause I can't see you
It was a perfect illusion
But I feel you watchin' me
But I feel you watchin' me
Illusion
But I feel you watchin' me
Mistaken for love
Where were you
Cause I can't see
But I feel you watchin' me
Mistaken for love
Dilated, falling free
In a modern ecstasy
Mistaken for love
In a modern ecstasy
In a modern ecstasy

 

[Garrett Hawke]

the only thing I don't like is the length

3:00 is ridiculous song length and shows that she's still not done chasing trying to be "on top" again and i really don't give a shit about that anymore.

 

[MANUELF]

What sort of Illuminati trash

 

[You Know Nothing]

3 minutes actually feels like a perfect length for this.

It's very in your face from the start and if it were longer it would start to grate.

 

[Dr. Malik]

The song aspires to the heartbreak and triumph of a classic disco record. But Gaga lacks the grace of a true disco diva. Donna Summer, Diana Ross, Gloria Gaynor – their voices were smooth, not jagged. Nor is there any sense of camp, or a knowing wink, to defuse the tension – no, Gaga’s deathly serious. At its most transcendent, disco was about dancing joyfully through your tears. Perfect Illusion sounds more like heaving sobs, flailing about in search of a melody.

[xaosslug]

I love it tbh

not surprised.

 

[llehuty]

Lmao, PI is so mediocre as a song, I AM SHOCKED, lol. And on top of that I can't stand her voice durimg the whole song. What the hell is she doing?, it's so fucking annoying.

 

[Floridian]

Apparently there's a Florence collab on Gaga's next album.

 

[Mau ®]

Apparently there's a Florence collab on Gaga's next album.

Gaga about to be upstaged on her own alberm

 

[MrV4ltor]

Apparently there's a Florence collab on Gaga's next album.

And a Beck collab

 

[You Know Nothing]

Father John Misty and Beck apparently did some production on this album too.

This is definitely her Real Music era.

Huh. The album is sounding like it oughta be a masterpiece with all these great collaborators.

I guess she really is done being a pop star. Good for ha.

 

[Little Mons†er]

PI is just So CATCHY

Ha vocals came through

Literally humming it all day right now

 

[Garrett Hawke]

not surprised.

excuse you tbh

Spoiler

i mean i am a big fan tho and i didn't really have high expectations so i'm pleased

 

[You Know Nothing]

It's everything I've wanted from her since the whole [redacted] debacle.

Working with real talent and not EDM hacks.

WHAT KIND OF LIE???

I need to listen to it more tbh. I'm already bopping tho

 

[royalan]

I listened to Carly Rae Jepsen's B Side yesterday with a coworker.

I liked it more than the actual album.

I feel like she branches out more with the tone of the songs on this album, which addressed my issue with her sounding too one-note.

 

[twobear]

perfect illusion is okay......it's better than like 90% of artpop so that's a start

bit repetitive tho

 

[Little Mons†er]

WHAT KIND OF LIE???

It's true tho!

After one listen I'm literally humming the hook like non stop

she killed it in providing a catchy hook tbh

 

[twobear]

wew wow it really drags at the end doesn't it

I thought I was crazy because I felt it's was better than the main album. Glad I'm not alone!

 

[Styles]

Side-B is definitely better than side-A

 

[olympia]

yeah i also think side b is better

 

[idwl]

1st listen: oh my god, I can't believe that was it. What a fucking disappointment

2nd listen: Like, all those people giving it praise.. what the fuck are they on

3rd listen: I just can't believe this is the song I've been waiting fo

4th listen: Wait

5th listen: Okay nvm this is rad as FUCK

This sounds like Stockholm syndrome

 

[twobear]

much like side a, side b is an near-immaculate collection of pop sings

but i can't bring myself to say it's better

 

[SilentSoldier]

Rated R is still holding up for me. How does she do it? Uggh

Took a break from Slanti to go back to Rated R and I agree with its continued slayage. I thing G4L is probably my favorite Rihanna song.

And as for Perfect Illusion

I want FameGa back, whatever this is can go away please.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Side B has Roses so.... it has to better than Side A.

 

[olympia]

the chorus in PI is okay, it doesn't grab me when it breaks in. there's no real momentum. i'm not at all crazy about the bridge at all

 

[You Know Nothing]

So many people wanting Gaga to get back in the studio with ReDone.

Like, have they heard anything he's made post 2010?

Gipsy is the best song in Artpop.
