misunderstood

So I was listening to the Joanne album when I was in the car and I noticed something and wanted to share it. Joanne covers different genres and topics of course but I noticed that even the standard tracklisting puts these songs in those sections. This is what I mean:

Dance Songs:

- John Wayne

- Dancin' In Circles

- Perfect Illusion

Country Songs:

- A-YO

- Million Reasons

- Sinner's Prayer

- Grigio Girls

Social Justice / Statement Songs:

- Come To Mama - Putting our differences aside and coming together

- Hey Girl - Women empowerment, coming together and lifting each other up

- Angel Down - Police brutality 

Uncategorized AKA I don't know where to put these:

- Diamond Heart - I don't know what genre you would consider this song to be in

- Joanne - Folk song

- Just Another Day - I don't know what genre you would consider this song to be in

Work Tapes: :derpga:

- Angel Down (Work Tape)

- Million Reasons (Work Tape)

 

what do you guys think?

You could put "Diamond Heart" and "Joanne" as personal or deep songs, something like that. I don't know about "Just Another Day" though.

A-YO is NOT Country.

Angel Down is about gun violence, hate and lack of humanity in today's society in general.

Where did you find the MR work tape?:huh:

I think it's understood at this point that in relation to Joanne "country" means "country-tinged." 

Also the work tape for MR's been out for a long time, it's nothing special though. If you've heard it live, you've heard the work tape.

OT: DH, JW, PI, and Joanne could be added to an amended "Rock/Country/Folk-influenced" category, with JAD lumped the work tapes as "Raw/Bonus Tracks" since it has that vibe imo

Just Another Day has a jazzy feel to it idk D: 

Have that middle instrumental part and a NY, NY feel to it

Just Another Day has always reminded me of a Beatles song. The weird jaunty piano just always seems like that style of 60's pop to me. 

Come to Mama has a Motown feel to it, reminds me of The Shirelles or another similar 60s girl group sound.

I always group those to songs together in my head because of that.

The fact that there are some songs that are uncategorized kind of undermines your point, but I would have done:

Dance Songs: John Wayne, Dancin' In Circles, Perfect Illusion, A-YO

Sentimental Songs: Joanne, Diamond Heart, Grigio Girls, Million Reasons, Sinner's Prayer, Just Another Day

Social Justice Songs: Angel Down, Hey Girl, Come To Mama

Make it stupid!

The song sounds super country to me and the fact that it was written with Hillary Linsdey makes it more country to me lol. It doesn't mean the song is bad.

This is cute :oprah: reminds me when I reordered the album to have the songs in a more cohesive order. and to be honest it's the only order I accept:

Ballads
Angel Down
Joanne
Million Reasons

Bops (mid-tempo)
Grigio Girls
Hey Girl
Just Another Day
Sinner's Prayer
Dancin' in Circles

Bangers
John Wayne
A-Yo
Diamond Heart
Perfect Illusion

 

...and that's it! The whole album, as it should have been! Did I forget anything? :oprah: Hmmmmmm no doesn't look like it, whole gangs here :trollga:
