hELXIG 43,080 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 This is probably not even thread worthy, but I just want to purge some of my thoughts today. I finally got my physical copy of Joanne today. I bought it from the same store I bought Born This Way from 5 years ago. An album that literally changed the direction of my life forever. Sitting in the car listening to this new album, an unexpected gem that I didn't know I wanted or needed until I had it, just reminds me of the journey of life. The journey in my life that I didn't know I was embarking on, when I bought Born This Way and started to really discover a person who made me feel normal. Some people might think "it's just music, get over it, how can it mean so much?" but to others it does. To some people music is everything. Because music has the potential to evoke emotions, bring people together, help people, and ultimately change lives. I'll meet this woman one day, and tell her how important she is, and will continue to be, for the world and humanity. Through Gaga's music I found a kindred spirit, I found self acceptance, positivity, courage, a reason to live. Thank you Gaga. I'll stick by you forever. I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvanas 5,768 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 We did it. And to think two months ago we stayed up all night in a thread wondering if Gaga had visited a radio station in New York. And now we have this gem of an album. "Who are we, if not slaves to this torment?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hELXIG 43,080 Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 I was only 19 when Born This Way came out. And at the time I was a very fragile, insecure, and emotionally unstable person. But she showed me for the first time ever that someone can be weird and different, and still be successful and loved by others. She said things in interviews that resonated with me like no words had before. I felt like I'd found a kindred spirit in a world where noone had ever understood me. She told me "don't be insecure if your heart is pure" and to "rejoice and love yourself today, because baby you were born this way" and reminded me to live life on the edge of glory, to feel the rush, and brush the dangerous, to marry the night and become one with my insecurities. And now she's reminding me to keep my chill, because even though there are angels being shot down, after all it's just another day. I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

I was 19 as well when BTW came out, and like you I was a mess of emotions at that time in my life. Gaga gave me a way to escape into her world of music. I agree so much with what you said about Gaga saying things in interviews that really clicked with you. She allowed me to see the things through a different perspective. I always think about how she said to love the traits about yourself that you hate or used to hate and be ashamed of. Those are the parts of you that make you special and will allow you to impact the world. She just really opened my mind and made me a less judgemental person towards others but most importantly towards myself. She made me feel so much more free to express myself, like she opened up this flower inside of me. I can't even put into words how much she has changed me.
