djBuffoon 12,120 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 To this day, I still can't pick one favorite. But here are the ones that I love the most. Sexxx Dreams - I love the s-xy, slow groove, and how it builds into an explosion of hot synths and the absolutely fantastic inclusion of a pick bass. I am also crazy about Gaga's split octaves during the chorus, the guttural and sensual lower register, and his whispery, sweet falsetto. Masterfully put together by DJ White Shadow Mary Jane Holland - This is a true rock song in EDM clothing. The laser-like 80s arpeggio that begins the track and runs through it is just :giveup:, and also the trembling "talk box" effect deep within the mix. I love how it crescendos in an ode to Queen/The Who-style rock opera, and her vocals are more than equipped to match it. Madeon had only a few chances to shine on the album, and he aced this one. G.U.Y. - Quintessential Gaga, the kind of song that put her on the map in the first place. Everything about it feels familiar, but not in a manner that comes off as redundant or tired. Zedd's production hits hard from the beginning, and doesn't let up for one measure. Very much a throwback to The Fame-era s-xy pop, but everything about it feels more dangerous and chaotic. Venus - The lyrics are a nonsensical jumble of non-sequiturs, planet names, and exclamations, but that's the point. This is a song about atmosphere, and it recalls 1960s science-fiction cinema in a way that is uncanny. ARTPOP - Ethereal, deliberately-paced magic. Fashion! - Some of the most intricate, sophisticated production on any Gaga song, ever. Captures the ease and power of walking into a party knowing that you are dressed to the nines. Gypsy - Some say it's cheesy, but I think this is Gaga at her most open-hearted and sincere. Folk-rock-disco is something I never thought I'd hear from Gaga, but this song is utterly gorgeous.

SlayLin 1,557 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 My favorite has been G.U.Y. since the day of release when I gave the album a first listen in full. Before it became a single, I thought it was going to be the next HML, or Scheiße. An under appreciated gem, a gem only the fans would be aware of. Man, was I wrong. But I still really love it and don't know why. I just think every aspect of the song is perfect, to me. For example, the way she sings "Gee, You, Y," (she sounds breathtaking) the lyrics!!! I will never get over it. :flutter: Also, my favorite part of the song? I don't know what you all will make of this or am I just reading into it too much? But the lyrics: "I don't need to be on top (of the charts) to know I'm worth it cause I'm strong enough to know the truth (I know I'm talented and I've got heart.) I just want it to be hot (the music, good for the fans) because I'm best when I'm in love (relationship with the monsters is where she gets her "power" [as in inspiration, happiness]) and I'm in love with you. In a nutshell, you know? I thought my interpretation of that part is pretty intense, and it made me cry seriously when I realized that. + this the alpha 본전 + Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
