Gaga is very good at writing catchy refrains with great hooks that you can't forget, even as casual listener (BTW, Shallow, Alejandro, Pokerface, ARUTW, Bad romance, ROM, Just dance, Millions reasons). However, for the rest of the songs, I feel she just goes for the first words that somehow fit the music, rhyme, rhythm and vibe of the song with out much border if it creates poetry, a stringent story or makes sense overall. And that's what makes many of her songs so much fun and kind of iconic, at least for me. But yea, no excuses for Malibu Gagaa saga and "Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (Make it real loud)".

It’s the zebra dress for me.

omg WHAT?! this is huge news i am so happy for her

By far not my favorite album of hers but, unlike many bitter people here who only want to see her fail, I am happy for her success cause I think she works so d*mn hard and she is undeniably a great artist

Bitch same. I got a pass and Idgaf about sitting through trailers anymore.

people know it's coming, why waste money on the promo slot when youtube is doing enough for now?

wait are these actually the lyrics?

but I want to change your mind

I understood what you were saying, but I’m just disagreeing about them seeming childish. Agree to disagree 🤷‍♂️

oop it wasn't even meant to be a read yah i agree but is it being shown? I always assume it goes teaser - trailer 1/ full trailer 2 (shown in cinemas) -

It’s not that they are simple, it’s not what my post was talking about, I mean, pop music is built around simple easy to remember lyrics. It’s just these specific lyrics are giving me a kindergarden vibes But St. Vincent is an amazing songwriter and artist and the album is one of the best releases of the year, so even she can write cringy lyrics sometimes and it’s fine 🤷‍♂️

I just don’t see how Anne writing a song inspired by Sophie’s death is any different to people on Twitter reacting to Sophie’s passing like they knew her personally. Anne is a fan, she dedicated a song to Sophie, not sure how that is worse than some random tweets saying “oh, she died how she lived” or something.

I mean, god forbid a lyric be simple lolol. It’s not the greatest thing I’ve ever heard, but it’s also definitely not that bad

I think the lyrics are pretty abstract, kind of jarring, but I wouldn’t say disrespectful. St. Vincent always teeters on simplicity to convey a deeper, more complex message. When she says “my Sophie” it could be off-putting, but I find it kind of beautiful- I see it as her saying “my influence”, someone she holds close to her, and inspires her. Fans say it’s weird that Annie Clark and Sophie never met, but artists give a piece of themselves when they release music, and Annie used that to tribute. Art isn’t always going to be sensitive

I feel like most artists would appreciate that their death inspired somebody else's song lmao. I kinda would. Mythologize me mama

I don't think it's disrespectful or something, just the lyrics are cringe and gives a kids song vibe about a clumsy character who falls down and dies My bunny climbed to the roof to get a better view of the moon moon 🥰 Oh my, then one wrong step 😣 took home down to the depth! 😱 But for a minute, my cute little bunny said: what a view! What a view! 🤩

people feel so entitled to sharing their opinions and forcing those opinions on other people. these bitches didn't know sophie either so their thought on the matter is irrelevant. annie has the right to write a song about whatever she wants and she said she felt inspired by the story cuz it is tragically beautiful. they don't like it they don't have to listen to it

Oh I've seen this on Twitter. I don't find it weird to write about an artist's death, tons of people have done it before. But the lyrics are not particularly good. When I saw this on Twitter, I thought it was some unknown artist that people were making fun of.

She was honoring an influential musical figure and nothing in the lyrics was insulting so I don't see the problem. Sensitivity is nice but too much is just annoying.

This, tbh. I remember listening to the record for the first time thinking it was a lovely lyric and being taken aback that people seemed to be offended by it lol

Oh we're doing in person?? In that case.. Thanks to this random fan who posted this picture back in 2012 of my exact show

It's co-headlining!

Taylor who?
