giskardsb 12,565 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 "In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few." - Zen master Shunryu Suzuki. Throw out your expectations. Experience the new era as if you had no knowledge of Gaga before. The vast majority of whatever expectations you've set-up, whether for music, videos, fashion, graphics, promo, charts, etc, will be incorrect. Why burden yourself with pre-ordained disappointments? Just experience the era, don't analyze it against past or imagined benchmarks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nino 12 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 What makes GaGa so fantastic is that anything's possible for her always. Even her Jazz era was exciting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaqJezus 1,027 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Just this. I used to do this after the Fame era, trying to imagine and predict for myself, but it never was true no matter what. She always shattered my ideas of her artistry and her influences and the translation of all of those creative inlets and outlets in her work. Now the only thing I expect, is to not know what I will hear or see. That is the mark of an artist who makes art because she was born to do it, and not for any other reason.
