theARTVampire 3,316 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 The "Fade-out" is the technique of ending a song with a slow decrease in volume over its last few seconds. Share your opinions on songs with a fadeout ending! Would you like more fade-outs on LG5? Examples: "I like it Rough", "Paparazzi", "Dance in the Dark", "Hair", "Do What U Want", ...

PartySick 134,413 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I like songs with solid endings better. Aura, Applause, Born This Way, Judas, and the live versions of pretty much every song. It just gives it a little something...Idk. Especially in the case of DWUW. The live ending with the xylophone synth thing is 100 times better than the ad-lib fade out 🖤 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swan Heart 7,382 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I don't really like it. But it wouldn't be a big deal if there is.. They say it's the last song. They don't know us, you see. It's only the last song if we let it be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyliesChild 16,907 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Nope. I think it will sound kinda lazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Venus 473 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I don't like it cause idk when i should stop dancing when i'm doing my Gaga concerts at home Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eifulien 2,276 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Can't say it's something I really pay attention to. I'm more used to a strong ending. Gives it a more complete feeling. But I'd be lying if I say I don't ****ing love the endings of DWUW and DITD. So there's definitely room for such effect, yeah! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
super ultra 878 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 yes! I would die for a song like Helter Skelter, at the middle of the song it almost fades out, then quickly fades back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swordstalker 1,829 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I think the abrupt ending sounds the best in most songs, but when the song is going for an older, emotional feel, like the masterpiece "The Queen", the fade-out is magical Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didymus 32,745 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Well, I mean, it completely depends on the song imo Summerboy's fade-out adds to the song's magnificence. Same for The Queen, Paparazzi, The Edge of Glory. I don't have an opinion about fade-outs at all, when they work, they work. I don't believe that songs should either have a fade-out or not.

CatelynnMarie 3,832 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I mean it doesn't matter, but personally I prefer solid endings to songs in general. Often times during fade outs, I'll hear instruments and chord changes/ etc that I'll wish weren't so soft sounding. For example https://youtu.be/dX3k_QDnzHE?t=3m40s VS https://youtu.be/FVAAE0lhZgM?t=3m56s Like, I LOVE the ending of the live version of that SO much better.

eifulien 2,276 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Hmm, she seems to be using it less than before. I just checked TF has 5 fade-outs initially. Then on the re-issue it is with 8 (from 16) TFM has 1 (DITD); BTW - 5 and ARTPOP - 1 (DWUW). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lona Delery 7,177 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 No, I dont like Fade-Outs. It fits Paparazzi and The Queen, but I dont like the rest. And I wouldnt consider TEOG a fade-out, since the ending is just the hold note from the saxophone which gets quieter but stops eventually Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
