Bests:

Aura: just an amazing song, powerful, in your face, awesome. demo was better but whatever

G.U.Y.: just a bop that has amazing choreo and is fun and loud and good.

MANiCURE: best song on ARTPOP imo. just incredible. loud, rock inspired, fun, perfection...

Donatella: loud, sassy, amazing

Mary Jane Holland: loud, in your face, different, creative lyrics

 

As you can see, I sort of like the louder, in your face, songs. They are so powerful.

 

Meh: 

Venus: just meh in general. good production, good vocals, just good. but literally JUST good

Do What U Want: very different, and cool. good vocals. interesting instrumental. but it just didn't have the wow factor others had for me.

ARTPOP: this song is just sort of made to be meh. like it isn't loud, in your face, or anything. it is just really original and interesting and creative and has good lyrics. it is a great song and very different, but tame.

Swine: a very good song, powerful, good lyrics, cool instrumental. it is better live, which it should be. very close to being one of the bests. if swine, stache, and skrillex had a baby it would've been amazing.

Fashion!: again. just meh. not good, not bad. just eh.

Dope: Good. not as good as other ballads shes done. probably her worst. but its fine. 

Gypsy: way to overrated. it is a good song, but bland. it sounds bubble-gum poppy. The piano at the beginning does nothing because it is too sped up. if it had a very raw acoustic beginning then progressed it would've been better. I agree with the op on the key change

Applause: an amazing song. only here cuz ive gotten sort of bored of it after a while. 

 

Worst:

Sexxx Dreams: the demo was so much better. She should've kept the original bridge. but the topic sounds like it was more of a, "everyone else is singing about s-x now so me too" sort of thing .

Jewels N' Drugs: If she wanted to go full out rap and stuff she should've. But not like cake. It could've been more of a See You Again thing with Gaga as the chorus and bridge. But that is more of DWUW. so yea. just... not really necessary. a good song, but compared to the rest it isn't up to par.

You put DWUW ft. R. Kelly in the bests but put the link to the version w Xtina :neyde:

I know I did, I said I liked that version better.

What? Gaga has always sung about s-x. Like 90% of her songs are about s-x.

DWUW should have been the lead single but nor the R.Kelly or the Xtina version do it for me, I only like the solo version tbh.

I pretty much agree with everything you said I love Sexxx Dreams, G.U.Y, ARTPOP, Fashion!, Gypsy.

The song I really hate are Dope & Venus, these songs are just bad.

It was just never in your face like with your Sexxx Dreams but I love it anyway.

@Mast  By reviewing other albums, do you mean other Gaga albums or albums of various artists?  If it's various, may want to start an album review blog thread in the Community Section.  :)

Ik... but like.. this one just seemed so clearly about s-x, and with it almost being a single. Gaga doesn't usually sing about s-x as blatantly obvious she did here. Like, in Sexxx Dreams, she is literally telling you she thinks of someone and fingers herself. In Poker Face, you really had to read into it. It isn't a bad song, but it just didn't really have as much "wow" in it. The criminals of thought was interesting though. If she kept it with more of a mysterious s-x theme, it could've worked better for me. :P

Just goes to show so many fans have different views of this album. Mine look to be very different from yours:

Best: Aura, Sexxx Dreams, Jewels N Drugs, MANiCURE, Do What U Want, ARTPOP, Swine, Donatella, Mary Jane Holland, Dope, Gypsy, Applause

Meh: Venus, G.U.Y

Worst: Fashion!

AP, Donatella and MJH really grew on (wasn't until I saw MJH live that I really appreciated it) and Venus and GUY grew on me but then died again. I ultimately knew I wasn't being honest when I said I loved them. Even though I listed Fashion! as the worst, I think it's ok but it's definitely the worst on the album even so. Which shows that even when Gaga's not good, she's not bad either.
