Yep. That and actual musical composition in her songs.

In 50 years after a double nuclear holocaust, the only things remaining will be Mariah's heart necklace and Ariana's ponytail.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
Was listening to Born This Way today. LORD what an impeccable album. Even the "duds" like Bad Kids and The Queen make my heart flutter. Favorite pop album ever

YESSSS somebody else who recognizes Born This Way as the incomparable masterpiece album that it is <3
OMG Heavy Metal Lover (my fave), Judas, Bad Kids, Highway Unicorn, Scheisse, Hair, Electric Chapel, it just goes on and on. BTW has the most longevity of all Gaga's albums for me. Gaga will be back to slay billboards once her "public has turned on her" phase is over (that any popgirl worth a damn goes through, including LEGEND Madonna)

My faves in order:
Born This Way > Artpop > (slightly) > The Fame Monster >>>>>>>> The Fame

Um, not it's not. What exactly was musically interesting about Just Dance or Poker Face?

It was dance pop music on a year with dance pop music. Really really interesting tbh.

You need to listen the 2014 AOTY Glorious and cry more.

me too actually!

at first i thought it was weaker than their debut, but now i kinda like it more. i think contra is still the best.

I actually prefer it to Contra, although, Giving Up the Gun is still maybe my fave VW song. It's absolutely MINDBLOWING when they play it live.

[edit] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEL8ReHs8UM a decent-ish version of their recent live arrangement. you can't really capture the awesome synth bass on a mobile phone. when the strobes go off for the final bleepy bloopy bit there's a big bass rumble like an enormous vandergraff generator discharging.

but contra has white sky AND giving up the gun! how dare

and I Think Ur A Contra

but I honestly think that Modern Vampires is basically a perfect album. i literally cannot think of a way that it can be improved, or a criticism that isn't just 'i don't like that kind of music'

and every time i remember that Rostam Batmanglij is working with Charli XCX i get a little shiver in my balls

I don't think I've ever listened to Vampire Weekend except for A-Punk :( where do I start or are all their albums worth listening to?

their albums are all worth listening to

honestly just go on spotify, put all of their album tracks into one big playlist, and hit shuffle. instant summer playlist.

I don't even think I've listened to part I since 2010, part II is so superior that it renders the original obsolete.

Hate on Godga all you want but Poker Face is one of the best pop songs of the last century.

Bye.
LoveGame, Just Dance, Poker Face, Bad Romance, Paparazzi, Telephone, Alejandro...her Fame/Fame Monster singles run just shit and slayed lives. Probably the strongest run of pop singles of the 21st century after Girls Aloud.
