Song from BTW that means the most to you?

[Letmelivemylife 8,715]

Idk about you guys but BTW is an extremely personal album for me. It's terrifying how much I can relate to many of the songs on there. If there was one song you could pick off of the album that means the most to you, what would you pick? Mine would definitely be "hair". To this day it's one of a very small handful of songs that make me cry. It was like gaga had read my diary when she wrote that song. I was 24 when that song came out and it instantly took me back to jr high. I went to catholic school and we had school issued uniforms. I refused to wear the school issued white socks and would always wear neon colored socks instead.

I remember sister Josephine (who taught 8th grade English) would always force me to change them and it felt like my heart was being ripped out every time I changed them. She asked me why I rebelled so hard and made life hard for myself. The thing is, they weren't just socks to me. They were my identity. They were the one thing I could change to make myself stand out. Being denied the ability to wear my neon socks felt like I was being denied the ability to be who I was.

Government Hooker because I'm actually a high end escort for many rich, powerful and influential politicians

Marry The Night. Idk why but every word of this song explains my life.

Black Jesus + Amen Fashion means a lot to me, it says a lot about fashion and performing arts, two of my favorite things.

Born This Way of course reminds me of how it's okay to be different and embrace your uniqueness.

Hair also gives me an extra 'push' to do what I want and be who I want to be.  

Marry The Night is really influential too.

Definitely HAIR. Literally.

I could be your gurl gurl gurl but would love me if I ruled the world world world

 

Lusty teas.
It's associated to a romance of mine and every time I listen to HML it's an instant coulda been movie.

Hair as well 

Its message still applies to me today because my mom hates my colored hair and the fact that I sometimes wear my knock off Joanne hat shown in my avi

If there was a way I could go back in time, I'd tell my 13 year old self "quit spending hours in front of the mirror. Quit worrying about what people say. Fight every god damn day for your right to wear those neon socks because I was born this way"

Marry the Night and Hair

I remember I sang/listened to those two everytime on my first week of my new school. I transferred because I was bullied a lot, and those two songs helped me make friends and gain respect from them.

Hair because I've learned to love my hair and the way I truly am

Awww hugs. Never be afraid to be yourself. You were born this way baby haha. Looking back I wish I would've fought harder for my right to wear my neon socks. To everyone else, they were just socks but to me they were my identity. They were the one thing I could change to make myself stand out

Heavy Metal Lover because it kind of expresses me in search of my HML as I sleaze my way through New York City in search of someone who is willing to settle for me

I may have found someone, but I refuse to put a label on it even though we've met each other eight or so times and three to four of those times were actual dates; the rest were Heavy Metal Playdates

Yay!!!!! Lol my best friend Mandy always tells me "you're so not normal but that's why I love you". She's right I'm not normal. I'm artsy, quirky, and weird. I snort when I laugh and I trip on my own feet walking down the hallway. I was born this way lol

If I cared what people thought, I wouldn't have bright red hair 

Do you think if Hair had come out when you were in school that you would have fought harder?
