Lady 748 Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 You guys are not getting , she is not saying that she is going to make basic happy records to please others , Heck No. Just Dance and Bad Romance were breaking boundaries they were her art and what she believed in and it just so happened they became immensely successful.To every human there are many emotions many shades to express what is deemed your imperfections are the painful parts of you and what is deemed your perfection are the brave parts of you. What Gaga is simply saying is that she is going to express the brave parts of her she's gonna be Brave and happy for us, music has an infectious nature a song like Dope could evoke negative emotions such as sadness and regret. What Gaga is trying to say is she's gonna remain positive and in an uplifted spirit for the next record cause it's what we all want , we all want Gaga to express the brightest parts of her i mean alot has happened her and Taylor , C2C, AHS. She is mostly in a happy place.What was so great about TFM was it was a dark album yet it was an uplifting approach as Gaga faces her monsters instead of running away from them , LG5 could be the same Gaga resisting the pain instead of giving into it. I think Gaga has what it takes to overcome anything i believe in her and she has to believe how perfect she is to us. Your explanation is exactly what I was hoping to get from someone cause I understood that I probably don't really get what she's trying to say cause it's really hard for me to believe that she would just start creating songs like JD again just because, just because....

Head Empty 25,087 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 This makes me very sad to read, but some of the reactions on here actually make me sick. In no scenario whatsoever should an artist feel pressured by the audience to change their musical direction. Statements like these just prove that all the negativity and complaints from within the fanbase genuinly do affect Gaga. And it seems like she doesn't feel free to write whatever she wants because if it. And what makes me angry is that some fans are happy about it or agree with it. A song like Dope might not be the most popular, and in might also not be a song that rubs well with everyone. But it's such a powerful, personal song, and at the very least a fan should respect that - even if they do not enjoy the song. Saying that Gaga should change her music just because you don't enjoy something, and cheering her on when she does, that just seems egotistical and wrong. And songs with a negative undertone aren't bad. They can resonate with people and cause healing. It has actually been scientifically proven that watching sad movies or listening to sad songs can help people who are feeling bad . Heck, I love Imagine Dragons and 80% of their music is very much about being broken and having negative feelings. But it resonates with me and really helps me deal with my own negativity. And I'm pretty sure that Lana, who's also popular on here, also barely writes music about anything other than being broken and unhappy. So Gaga should just write whatever the hell she wants, and let the haters be haters - even if they're fans. As long as she truely loves the music herself, she should write and release it. Happiness will never last, darkness comes to kick your ass... ᵃˢˢ 🕺 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiona Apple 13,006 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 It's obvious that ARTPOP has a lot of pain in it.I just wish that she could put that pain into the lyrics and make us understand how she feels instead of putting it into the beats and the vocals.Still love the album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bye 3,947 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I'm...disappointed. I'll still be here for her no matter what but I kinda always wanted piano ballads, power ballads and the like from here I won't burn my stan card though unlike those who just want a dance bop and would throw a tantrum if she released an album full of Dopes (I would kill for such an album).

Lady 748 Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 An interesting take on her comments from one other forum:I'm no expert but I think she's saying she wants to do darker, imperfect stuff. She feels that songs like "Just Dance" are too sweet and "Bad Romance" is too perfect; she likes "Dope" and tracks from "ARTPOP" because she believes they weren't perfectly dark. However, she thinks that nobody really wanted that - everyone wants to see perfect darkness or just perfection itself. So she is trying now to create stuff that has the right balance of perfection and darkness, which is why she likes Hotel because the imperfections win out.If that's the case, then I'm not complaining that much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mee 381 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Can't understand Gaga, ARTPOP wasn't pain in pure, there is a ton of normal bright and cheerful sounds on ARTPOP and when there was pain, she hided it the most time behind loud beats and flat produced trendy sounds.ARTPOP don't feels like a painful album, it's very artificial and synthetic. I want so much more humanity for the next album, but refined and experimental. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miley 5,006 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 You know what guys,She's not just talking about us, her fans, but the audience as in "everyone". I think it's more difficult to actually create something for an audience, instead of making an audience of your music. I mean, that's what she did until ARTPOP. ARTPOP was something she believed in, but people were not interested. And that's how life is. If the dogs want to be fed with a certain thing, it's up to you. You either feed them what they want, or you feed them whatever you choose to, but you can't expect them to stay when you do that. She's almost 30, she has more experience than all of us together when it comes to these things, she'll be fine. She's smart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haroon 49,685 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Sorry to be a pain but doesn't a thread like this belong in the News & Events section? If you see a thread in the wrong section or a thread that belongs better in another section then report it and mention that in the reporter's comment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donatello 129 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 If she sang Dope in her Speechless voice and RedOne produced it, it would not get this hate at all. Lyrical content doesn't matter. In fact, as obvious as the meanings are to stans, Paparrazi/Bad Romance/Judas made no sense to me let alone to the public, and interviewers would always ask what they meant. Most of the songs I listen to, unless they are as direct as Just Dance, I have absolutely no idea what they're about. There is a David Bowie quote on how lyrics don't matter. Remember the day when the album tracklist was revealed, and those fans who camped outside her studio painted the titles on the wall? She literally ran out to them every 10 minutes and asked them what to change, how to tweak the songs to make them sound even better. She didn't care about her own opinion, she was desperate to please us and return with material that we will like.I don't know how I missed this piece of info back in 2013, but my trust in her musicianship is absolutely shaken rn. These disgusting fans are probably the reason she took out the hihi's out of the ARTPOP song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
