AlexanderMagno 10,746 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 1 hour ago, Kayla said: EDIT: Or is it like...the regular is the genuine album, then deluxe is like a bonus amount of songs that the artist didn't necessarily want lumped in with the flow of the original album but still wanted to release to the fans? That is their excuse I can't believe that an artist, when composing one album, defines a standard and a deluxe edition. If you want your fans to listen to the songs, release a b-side, or better yet put them out there for free. I guess it still sounds weird, but I get to trust more those who release a deluxe editions months after the album was released. I understand that, once the album is out there, it grows in you, and it grows in ways that an artist sometimes is not expecting, so it makes sense to re-release it with additional songs, as an update (specially if you, as the artist, are still very into it). Or you release an album full of b-sides (as it is or in the form of a second album). Releasing the standard and the deluxe at the same time is much more meaningless.

AnglerfishbraBENUS 5,734 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 It's better this way. We want as many as possible... regular people def just want the best i'm sure. The born this way bonus tracks are my fave especially FOHL, but the GP does not need to hear black jesus LOL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

See I would say that releasing a deluxe months after is more of a money-grab because they're ensuring that everyone buys the original and then saying "buy this one too for more songs!"

joannesrats 26 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I'm fine with it. The less tracks on the album mean that there are less filler tracks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
display name 4,360 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I thought that Gaga just didn't want the word "deluxe" on the album cover... Anyway, definitely glad to be getting thirteen new songs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayer 9,227 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 The problem I find with deluxe editions is that my mind immediately treats the deluxe songs as redundant and filler...because if they weren't good enough to make the standard edition, then why should I treat them all the same? I had that problem with the three BTW bonus tracks. I just hated them all to begin with. Over time I've grown to like BJAF and FFHL but nowhere near as much as the standard edition songs. Worried the same will happen with Joanne deluxe songs... I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, and that's why I admit it sounds kind of weird but still, get my idea? For me it can be more meaningful than releasing both at the same time. It's not ideal anyway. The best would be to release a whole new album, with the scraps of the previous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
