Naor Daniel 937 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think this thread is basically invalid when The Cure exists, which is a pure EDM single. I don't think she is going to ever abandon pop music. I think Joanne is going to stay unique in her discography in the way it is distant from general mainstream pop music. I guess LG6 is going to be more like The Cure less like Joanne or C2C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crackpoppodcast 1,531 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I've been telling everyone lately that I imagine this being her last tour for a long time. I know she wouldn't give up pop forever, but it seems to me like this tour is a tribute to her entire career so far and she will be leaving on a high note! She probably wants to lay low for a little with Cristian and start a family- she's always said those were aspirations. We shall see and I hope I'm wrong but I wouldn't be mad and wouldn't blame her for wanting to live out her life a little more normally and out of the public eye for a while.

Yandere 570 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Gaga is gaga and it's ok she made me lose hype era after era but she's the number 1 always and forever, her albums are always the best. but... Imo she should've put out BTW album now. Imagine the blaaaaast sorry but after btw nothing has been the same, she made something impossible to be surpassed. wasnt simply pop. It was the music my soul needs, cant be defined in a genre. Amazing. I still got chills @carminemorriello Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginald 13,841 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 As usual, I'm late to the hit threads. Anyway. I'm here for any genre GAGA does, as long as she writes great songs (or finally delivers C3C). I feel like Joanne was an interesting genre change but besides a few gems (Diamond Heart, Million Reasons, A-YO, Joanne) her songs seemed kind of flat and not memorable, this time. Patiently waiting for LG6, whatever genre she will be (Or C3C, ahem...) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIghtmareElm 2,606 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Sorry man I had to use that Excuse Me No react on you. You made me do it. The first and hopefully the only time I will use it. But seriously, no. She starting morphing back into more Lady Gaga and The Cure is straight up pop. I think she just needed a little break from it before going full on pop again. I'd love to a dance pop album with hard rock elements again. Like JWT was a pop show but with lots of raw rock music mixed in. It didn't feel clean, it felt dirty, raw, and sexy. I hope she gears that way for her next album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VforVendetta 2,024 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Joanne is pop. (poprock is still pop) Just because it's not the generic pop your hear everywhere in 2017 it doesn't mean that it's not pop music, it's just pop music the way it has always been supposed to be, personal and real. Not a copy/paste situation of the same sound, made by the same producers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonSwiftAnton 3,746 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Idg what some of you are talking about. Joanne is not straight up pop but it is still pop right? The Cure were also a pop record sounding like early Second Time Around Gaga. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nono 3,576 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 15 hours ago, Givenchy said: I think saying goodbye to PopGa means saying goodbye to mainstream Gaga with high budget music videos, tours and performances as well. I know everyone here wants to pretend to care about what she personally wants and it's cute, but let's be realistic, Lady Gaga became Lady Gaga because she craved the fame and the spotlight. Hell she herself called her album The Fame Monster and she sang "I live for the Applause". Changing that to a "I'm not a money-making machine" attitude and making something totally differently will end up alienating her fan base, hell it already did, as I see a lot of people today are a hell lot less dedicated and defensive of her as they were back during the BTW era, and if she continues down that road she will soon not even be a money-making machine for herself, let a lone a big label. Lady Gaga is a very talented women. She can sing, dance perform, act, dress, shock..etc. and she can even borrow stuff from other artists and look fine doing it, despite the controversies. But she got where she is because of shock value. In the world of pop, people hardly care about talent, unless someone somehow got lucky like Adele and made it to mainstream music with ballads and powerful lyrics and no sex. And as much as you wanna deny it, Gaga got famous because she shocked people with her outfits, the shock value was like a bubble that eventually popped. Like meat dress, egg/vessel, mermaid, blood, teddy bear dress, wood debris dress, flying dress, what else? metal dress? stone dress? you can only do so much before you run out of ideas or run out of resources to create something you haven't done before, and unfortunately all that happened so fast. People recognize her talent, but many don't care because they wanna dance to her catchy songs in clubs, watch her perform and do crazy stuff on stage or appear at an event with a weird outfit or make a shocking statement. That's the mentality of the majority of the people who care about her. They're more interested in the lady that wears from Versace and Giuseppe Zanotti than the girl who wears regular stuff. They want the over-the-top performances, the crazy long music videos with story and weird ****. That's what made the most of us love her so much. Of course, I'm not saying she's worthless without those, but she'll never have even close to the impact she had, with any different attitude than this, which is why she attempted to return to that image with The Cure and then performing Super Bowl which brought back her old looks and now JWT which has a lot more pop hits than Joanne songs. Now you're gonna say "she can do whatever she wants". Yeah, sure. But that cannot stop us from discussing the elephant in the room. When people here complain about the lack of videos from this era or the videos that didn't feel like something Lady Gaga would make, well that's what changing to a more country-ish or rock or metal sound would yield. How weird can one go with Perfect Illusion or Million Reasons? how crazy can you get in a music video of a song that doesn't have much craze into it? and all that will reflect on appeal which reflects on sales which reflects on upcoming performances, tours and albums. She won't be granted as much resources when she doesn't generate much income and when the public gets disappointed by something or just not so hooked into something, they usually remember that when there's something else coming. I mean if I see few movies for a certain director and they don't appeal to me, I will take note whenever I see his/her name on a movie again, same goes for music. So if this really is the end of Pop Gaga, it will eventually mean the end of Gaga herself, and telling people to "support her instead of b*tching" doesn't help because you don't lie to yourself pretending that a song is good. You provide feedback in hopes of seeing change and if there isn't, you move on. Make a thread with this tnx Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
