LUO YI 6,089 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Oh and I respect your opinion about how you feel but I prefer her doing the things she wants before doing what she's supposed to do. If she wants the GP, let her be, she will serve as always. She's having a more "normal" life if you understand what I mean. She seems happy.

I really felt like it was her return to form! it sounds cool when I play it in the car or house but the headphones get ****ed up. It sounds... Flat?

Flat? Hmmm... now that is an angle I have not explored. I've mostly listened in the car or on computer speakers. Rarely in headphones (unless I'm at the gym, in which case I'm not really paying that much attention/can't hear that well). Will have to give this a whirl and get back to you. Fair question to ask tho... what source files are you using while listening? Streaming from Spotify, Apple Music, etc...? Illegal downloads? iTunes downloads? Or HQ rips from the actual CD? Not shading, just asking. It does make a difference! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that the fun of being obsessive pop music fans? Proclaiming what you love and then expanding your horizons when you realize others love something different? I hear you, my friend! And I agree... Art, at the end of the day, is not about the audience. But it is about the artistic expression of the artist. As much as I "want" Gaga to pander to my taste, if she chooses to become a chicken farmer who writes tacky romance novels for the rest of her life, so be it. As long as she's happy and feels like she's releasing her artistic energy in a manner that makes her feel happy and healthy, who am I to complain. It's her life and her art. I have my selfish interests, but how she chooses to express herself is ultimately about her and her alone. I just hope that she continues to do that and not get caught up in what will be "successful" or what will "please the audience." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The honest truth is: overanalyzing the symbolic meaning embedded in Gaga's work is literally my favorite hobby. It amazes me that after 8 years, there are still things that are obvious that I have yet to see. This is why I stay compelled after all this time. She does pop music like it's a literary masterpiece.
