giskardsb 12,565 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Just trying to keep people from setting themselves up for disappointment. In every case where somebody mentions something about Gaga and LG5( i.e., Elton, etc) or a producer is rumored, or Gaga makes some statement that may or may not be a clue about LG5, a lot of people are taking words and hearing what they want to hear. At this point, some fans are convinced LG5 is a throwback sonically and lyrically to TF or TFM, others think it's her version of Adele, and both are convincing themselves by using the same words from the same interviews and the same stories. Maybe we should just take everything with a grain of salt and not hype ourselves up based on our own biased interpretations of what various people have said or various things Gaga has been doing. It's fun to speculate, but some of you are going to end up hugely disappointed because you come to believe something is happening that isn't. And then GGD will have a great big needless meltdown come LG5 release time. Really, we have almost nothing to go on and no direct statements as to what this album is going to be. Let it be a surprise and don't layer everything with your own expectations. It will be a lot more fun that way. Chillax. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LebaneseDude 6,146 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 So what's the point of these forums if people can't talk about Gaga stuff that excites them? Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kermit 15,807 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I couldn't have said it better. Like, really, I couldn't have said it better. I would have used a lot of censored words and each word would be capitalized. “For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic.

Sizzily 14,543 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'd say I'm pretty chill. But this is a fan forum dedicated to Lady Gaga, excitement and hype should be expected. Tears in the rain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy232000 11,367 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Sis....ILY. thank you for putting everyone in their seats. i see comments all around the website that "LG5 WILL BE THE BEST ALBUM TO DATE". what if it underperforms? im not here to see you all drag the **** out of LG5 just because it may not meet your false expectations.

I don't understand why people make threads like this. The point of a forum is to discuss, to analyze, to debate, etc. People seem to be anti-speculation and anti-discussion when that's why a place like GGD exists in the first place lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine Prince 105,685 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I just think people have very high expectations for the SALES. You people are going to be so disappointed. It's better to expect LESS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we already have signs of people convincing and self-hyping themselves in completely polar opposite directions. They are just setting themselves up for a mess, thats all I'm sayin.

dek0de 1,325 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I agree, I think we can all be excited without taking things out of proportion! I mean we honestly know nothing about this next album... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FRANK1991 3,329 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I won't believe a thing unless Gaga says them. Other then that I like to sit back and watch all the meltdowns on this site with glee. Cause once you let it go you better know it's gone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zilla 13,384 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 We go through this with every album cycle. "Insiders" comment on album, Gaga talks about album. More people talk about album, monsters get hyped up and believe every little thing. Something happens, monsters get angry. Some monsters tear into Gaga. Some monsters tell others not to believe the hype, and some monsters take it there. It's a cycle. 𝙸'𝚖 𝚊 𝚓𝚘𝚛𝚝𝚜 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚓𝚎𝚕𝚕𝚢 𝚜𝚑𝚘𝚎𝚜 𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚍 𝚘𝚏 𝚐𝚒𝚛𝚕. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
