The one biggest mistake is not releasing "Gypsy" because it could have been an iconic hit single for her, but oh well... RIP

Don't know about that...

Frankly, GUY was way too blunt considering she spent half a year working on it.

 

A fallen phoenix rises from the ashes, gets baptized and dances in pretty locations. The pop culture references (Ghandi/John Lennon/Jesus/etc) were nonsensical and horribly crammed in between long scenes of gaga dancing looking "pretty".

 

She can and will do better once she realizes she can't do everything alone and lets her ego take her back to collaborating with other people like she did at her peak. 

 

I'm not going to argue with you over the G.U.Y video because it is just going to be subjunctive, but I for one found the greek mythology to be very interesting (and something that is not generally used in pop music videos).

In my opinion, her depiction of Erotes at the start and references to Icarus and Venus where smart. Her depiction of the Neptune pool as Mount Helicon’s sacred waters of inspiration was done well and using the Housewives as The Greek Muses was a good touch.

Her references to Eve and how she connected it with Aphrodite and the forbidden fruit was cool.

I also liked how she depicted the goddess Morrigan, (who is the Goddess of battle, strife, and fertility), when she broke into the corporation's offices 

 

The scenes where breathtakingly beautiful and it is, in my opinion, her best video yet.

 

She didn't do everything alone that's impossible, she collaborated with a lot of people for the G.U.Y video. Did you not see the credits at the end? It seems to me that you have a problem with her being the director yet you said Marry The Night was one of your favourite videos.... She seems to be capable of directing good videos in your opinion, so I don't know why you are now demanding she stops.

 

She doesn't need to do anything. She is the artist, and she has the money and resources to create whatever she wants. If you don't like what she is making then you are obviously not a fan :shrug:

flop

A BB 200 number one album, 2 BB Hot 100 top 10 songs (one top 5), a #1 BB Dance song, her biggest radio hit to date, the third best-selling female album of 2013, and Billboard named it the best album of 2013. Not to mention, Applause won a VMA Japan award, the music is amazing and her tour is selling wonderfully. I'm not seeing the flop part.

 I meant the era itself is floppy and boring, not the album.

This era was awful there's really no way around it. The album itself is good but that's all. Glad she's moving on to better things  :)

I'm sorry but I chuckled. :toofunny:

I mean it is what it is at this point. The music was great. The tour was fun. There were other great moments as well. But hopefully the next era won't be messy..

ARTPOP isn't over, and it's disrespectful to drag it this way. It's unappreciative.

It was more entertaining that just about anything else that's been going on in music lately, so it deserves to go out with APPLAUSE when it DOES finally end (which isn't yet).
