bigbozzboy 14 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I've seem some discussion lately that Gaga's lyrics might not be suited to everyone. Are lyrics really that important for listeners as a sole factor of liking the music or not?Personally, I was attracted to Gaga's music at first because her melodies and musicality were something that most other pop artists couldn't offer me. I never really ever thought about lyrics TBH. I have seen a couple of threads recently saying that her music has been unrelatable (due to lyrics) and it didn't really make sense to me. As a musician, I respect gaga's musical intuition more-so than her lyrical prowess so I was wondering if the reason most of you listened to Gaga was for her "music" or more for the "lyrics".Just curious!

Yanko 9,860 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 both play big part for mei think she has her style of writing but i just can't enjoy songs like donatella and bad kids Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staryu 6,162 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 The meanings of her lyrics aren't as important (to me) as the music itself and how those lyrics sound. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceGaga 7,243 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I enjoy both. I love her strong messages in some songs and strong melodies others (most of the time, both in the same song) and I also get a kick out of her more silly stuff that melodically is great but lyrically is really slap-stick. Depends on my mood at the time of when I'm listening to it really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbozzboy 14 Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 I know donatella's lyrics suck.. but I LOVE that build up / production. I think it's a great track musically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music comes first for me. If the lyrics work well with music that's a plus! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartz 11,923 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 To me, I do give the melody a big part when deciding if I like the song or not. But for me to stay hooked to a song, that will be up to the lyrics. And for that song to have lasting impact in my life, the lyrics have to be STRONG (e.g. BTW, Marry the Night) Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman 4,660 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Because I love pop music, but I dont want to listen to basic mindless crap all of time. Yes she makes mainly top 40 pop, but her music actually has substance. For instance, you can a--lyze and debate about what her lyrics are about. Also, her songs have meaning and important messages to them. She actually attempts to bring change and artistic aspects into pop music. Which I appreciate because its the genre I love the most, so I can connect to it easily. Not to mention she writes incredible choruses, and her music is thematically diverse and interesting. Her songs has gotten me through SO much. Through heartache, pain, and even happy moments. And for that reason alone I will always listen to her music and I will always be blown away.

SlayMeToVenus 3,098 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 She made me realize that we're the same in many ways. I can relate to most of the stuff that has happened to her. & also her music brings out my inner sass. I don't have a Diamond Heart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbozzboy 14 Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 I'm new to this forum.. anyways I was trying to respond to Lamon. I agree Gaga's choruses are amazing. But I was wondering are you more attracted to her choruses because of the lyrical content or the melodic content? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
