Guys, srsly, it's obvious that Tony wouldn't be on it :sharon:

idgi, how is it supposed to be C3C if only Gaga is in it? That would simply be LG6.

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

bc it's a covers album not just with Gaga but with other collaborators like Brian May, Josh Homme, Adam Lambert, Paul McCartney, etc

The covers album we are waiting for is Cheek to Cheek 2 (jazz/standard covers) but what if the cover album we'll get next is a rock cover album?

That's what I meant with the thread

I understood what you were getting at. I never thought about that... I think it would be a great idea but they would have to be classic songs. Hopefully old enough to where the artist are no longer living. She might get backlash for "ruining a good song". Which is why I think the Jazz covers were appropriate because they are older and open for interpretation (and jazz music in general is open to interpretation so it allows for differ renditions).

Oriane

I expect her to do her own rock album instead.

Covering jazz standards is normal, this is how it's been done for decades, this is how it was done back then, and the songs don't even belong to their original authors anymore. Every singer makes these songs their own, that's one of the magical things about jazz.

But it doesn't work that way with rock, you would immediately compare with the original version, thinking "oh here is a song by the Rolling Stones, here is a song by Queen, I like this one better, but I don't think she did this other one the right way" etc. So I'd prefer her to write her own rock songs, and we know she has the skills for it.
