just let you know im pretty new as a monster and i'm not familiar with her BTW, TF, TFM era at all so please dont judge me

I know she wrote telephone for britney but her team take it back

But is there any symbolism behind this song or it's just a filler added to the album for commercial purpose?

Did she mention bout this song at all in her interview?

As far as i know

So happy i could die is about fear of getting too attachach

alejandro is about fear of sex

teeth - fear of the truth

dance in the dark - about body image

how about bad romance and monster and Telephone?

SHICD is fear of alcohol/addiction

She's described both Alejandro and Monster as fear of sex.

Bad Romance the quote was something like "when you love someone so much and your fear of losing them is so great" + "I want the deepest, darkest, sickest parts of you that you're afraid to share with anyone, because I love you that much".

She once tried to say that Telephone was "fear of suffocation" but she was obviously stretching the truth to make it seemed like it fit the album theme. In reality you're right, it was the odd one out, written before all the others.

Isn't Alejandro's main theme fear of men?

I understand the theme she said with Telephone but it is less meaningful than the rest because of the fact that it was written for Britney.

Nah she pretty much just glued it into TFM cuz it was a bob.

She tried to justify it here and there but its obvious

Telephone - fear of telephones 

Kevin Parker, Mac Demarco, Mark Ronson, and a stoned Lady Gaga. Need I say more?

Telephone: Fear of Suffocation

It's agreed that it's the most generic sounding song from TFM, but I think it symbolizes Gaga's fear of being too overworked and stuff. Like maybe she wants to be free of something?

Yeah it's really fear of suffocation but when she wrote it she just wrote a cute bop and nothing else. It can be interpreted as having fear of being "suffocated" from someone.

Red and Blue - Beauty of young love

The Fame - Beauty of Fame

TFM - The ugly of fame/Fear

BTW - Beauty of self

ARTPOP - Beauty of Art and Pop

ARTPOP act 2 - Beauty of the trash bin folder

Cheek To Cheek - I don't understand the question.

LG5 - Beauty of Dancing/Movement (I'm guessing on this one),
