Marry The Night - accepting you flaws Born This Way - accepting who you are and how you were born Government Hooker - a song that talks about how we are “hookers” of our political leaders Judas - a song about forgiving someone who betrayed/hurt you Americano - A song about unfair immigration laws that empower embracing one´s ethnicity and nationality Hair - a song about feeling free scheibe - a feminist song Bloody Mary - a song that talks about being “devine” yet “human too” Bad Kids - embracing rebelliousness and your behavior Highway Unicorn - traveling down the road of dreams Heavy Metal Lover - TBH I dont know the meaning behind this one Electric Chapel - Talks about being enclosed in a safe space You and I - a love country song The Edge of Glory - living the thrill of life and death Black Jesus - autobiographical song that uses NY imagery to describe Gaga´s rise to fame Fashion of His Love - just a tribute to Alexander McQueen The Queen - empowerment of being who you need to be I fail to see strong connections between the songs in bold and the theme of "self acceptance and identity" You could say "Judas" is linked by stating that "you were born to forgive" but thats just reaching or how "Bloody Mary" talks about being divine (strong) yet human (weak) in an allusion to saying that we as humans should embrace the idea that sometimes we cant be powerful and have flaws, but again, reaching. All songs have weak links if you reach enough, but not all of them go directly in theme with the album, making it actually her least cohesive album thematically for me in her discography. Still the most cohesive sonically tho, 2 different things Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-YO talks about Gaga ignoring the haters through her rise to fame and john wayne talks about her tendency to like men that are bad for her, and since its an album about her and her family, they all connect back to "GAGA" they at least represent some personality trait of her Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
