And it isn't like her other albums don't have fillers: Money Honey, Starstruck, Summerboy, Disco Heaven, Swine ????????????? wtf seriously ? , Fashion!, Sinners Prayer, Just Another Day Etc. I don't really get what Monsters mean by BTW specifically having loads of filler GOOD FCKINg BYEEEEEE A scattered dream that's like a far-off memory... a far-off memory that's like a scattered dream.

You're classifying Government Hooker, Bloody Mary, Americano, Hair, and even HML as fillers???......All of those songs fit in more with the theme, message, and music of BTW better than I Like it Rough, Boys Boys Boys, and Summerboy do for TF. Hell even Teeth should technically be classified as a filler going by your logic. My statements aren't incorrect, you just don't agree with them. Teeth is a filler Just because certain songs semi fit the overall theme doesn't classify them as non fillers. ILIR, BBB, SB are indeed fillers, but they're better songs and have more potential as singles than anything off BTW. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by your statements, which are also just opinions btw and are as incorrect as anything I say, most albums would just be 5-6 song EP's and only include singles. A lot of songs you consider filler aren't simply on the album to increase the track length but can be considered to add to the musical theme and message of an album. I'll be damned if anyone thinks ILIR, BBB, and SB are better songs than Bloody Mary, Heavy Metal Lover, and Government Hooker... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren't the best songs off the album usually released as singles? Therefore, if a song has the potential to be a single, it must mean it's been thought it's good enough to release to represent the albums..and the fillers are well, just there..

I actually like bad kids, the queen, HML, but the fillers do absolutely nothing for the album. Do you mean they don't do anything sales wise for the album (cause that is incorrect) or sonically for the album (which is also incorrect)?

Money Honey). Not all songs on an album have to fit a theme, if Gaga likes a song and thinks it's somewhat fitting, she puts it on the album. Simple.Every song on BTW has a meaning and soul behind it, therefore they aren't fillers. She didn't write them with no purpose to fill the album.

And I'm well aware that my comments are my own opinions lol. Some fillers are better than others. Some songs are better than others. Just because BTW is worshipped doesn't mean it's free of filler, and it's fillers aren't even that good.

No. They are supposed to sound more radio friendly (or should) but that doesn't mean they are the best off the album. I think singles are USUALLY the worst songs off the album and stuff that doesn't get released is the best. Not necessarily the case for Gaga but for a lot of other artists.

But didn't gaga write all the songs for all her albums? Therefore she liked them all? Thinks they're fitting? Gave them soul? Meaning? You think money honey is trash. I think it's a great filler song.

I usually think singles are USUALLY the worst songs off the album and stuff that doesn't get released is the best. Not necessarily the case for Gaga but for a lot of other artists. Why would a record label release the worst songs off the album? They're supposed to release the best to draw attention to the project to sell because they want to make money.
