I shouldn't drag her for covering a magazine for older folks, and I take that back. I should know better, and I apologize. Gaga wasn't on AARP.

I think Joanne is Gaga's best in a lot of areas and I don't believe it's anything close to mediocrity but to each his own. Think whatever the hell you want. I know Gaga is capable of even better than Joanne but I understand why she made a lot of the choices she made when creating Joanne. I am more than satisfied with what she has given us. Joanne has made me feel something no other album has and that's all that matters to me. My issue with your comments is that you legitimately drag her lyricism and her craft as something from a significantly lower tier than that of Lorde, which I do not, nor will I ever believe. If you really think Gaga has been delivering generic music since The Fame Monster, you need to reevaluate your musical perceptions. This is generic: This is not generic: If you can explain to me what is generic about a politically charged album, such as Born This Way, (about the LGBT community, immigration, feminism, and literally her fans), or ARTPOP (about greek mythology, critics, media, and being addicted to weed), or Joanne (a heavily country influenced album by a pop artist known for her electronic dance music about world peace, her aunt, her friend with cancer, black lives matter movement, her own career), then I'll agree with you. But I know you can't. Gaga goes left field all the time. Look at ****ing Electric Chapel? Like wtf? Perfect Illusion? Government Hooker? Venus? Dope? ARTPOP? Aura? GENERIC? WTF?

You can't just say that because you don't even know if I read them or not so why are you saying that as if I didn't consider THEIR opinions? If people don't want to go on about an album they aren't in favor of them they can just see that they've mentioned it and leave the thread. You stated that people didn't respond to you with reasoning, but with gifs. I stated that some people did give longer answers and explanations. People should leave a thread if they don't want to post several times on multiple pages like you? Now you are dictating how people should leave their opinions on music? Some people want to express an opinion and move on. There is nothing wrong with either way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBatman 951 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Damn Katy's second week numbers are so bad wow wtf even Gwen did better. I still feel like Joanne and Witness era's will end on on par but.... at least in the battle for second week sales: Melodrama wins! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I made the post people commented with a gif solely so how's that igniting any conversation whatsoever? That is an excerpt of what I said. I never said that some people didn't just respond to me with gifs solely but people have provided their stances maturely but on topics about Gaga's songwriting and not what we're discussing at the moment. I have a response to what posts about how “Gaga is not generic" but I'm deciding on whether to make it a thread or not, but you're assuming that I just ignored their posts because it isn't inclined to my thoughts. If they don't want to converse then log off? You're acting as if people can't say their stances in 5 minutes and just leave the thread if they don't want to discuss it any longer but that's not what many—even people who share the same opinion of mine—did.

The 1 star reviews on iTunes for Witness are almost the same amount as the 5 star reviews. It was obvious Witness wasn't going to do well once BA came out. The only thing keeping Katy afloat is giving away free copies of Witness away with her tour tickets, and even her tour sales are doing terrible.

WideAwake 0 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Joanne didn't win at all, the only reason it managed to reach 1M pure sales and a top 10 song is thanks to Superbowl. Without it, the era would have died this winter. Gaga was just lucky. Katy's about to get another top 10 or 20 with Feels which is outperforming The Cure.
