blacklistedd 599 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I don't think shes playing it safe at all. Have you even looked at her this era? The music is more radio ready than BTW but still. I don't think she played it safe this era, I think she just let every negative article and criticism get to her and this era is a reflection of how much she actually cares what everyone thinks. She didn't make something safe, she made something self-conscious. x2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tokyodisko 0 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 The music on this album, with the exception of Swine and JND, is not messy. Applause is pretty easy to understand. You said relatability matters, clearly relatability did not matter for Paparazzi or Poker Face or Bad Romance. I don't think the verses to Bad Romance are any more or less random than the verses for Applause. Overall Applause just wasn't as dynamic as BR or as hard to deny as Paparazzi and PF. But it wasnt a mess. Relatability is a bull**** argument. You're wrong. Accept it. The over all themes are completely different and because of her actions she is now in an uphill battle for a hit. BR wouldn't have smashed if it was released now either. But no, of course how closely GP can relate to a song wouldn't help in the slightest. Total bull****, that's why the top 40 contains such diverse topics. kbai. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewStevens 5,249 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 She is not playing safe... She is not even playing, that's the problem. Some of you don't know the difference between playing safe and being smart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
