Gaga Album: 'Alchemy'

Pretty random thought, but... 

I think 'Alchemy' would be a fantastic title for a Gaga album. What album it would be, I'm not totally sure... but I don't think it would suit a PC record, which I know, is what has been suggested for LG6. 

Specific projects aside, 'Alchemy', in my opinion, is the perfect word to describe Gaga's creative process. Archaically used to refer to how one substance could be morphed into something new - often in a magical or 'otherworldly' way - the term holds a lot of relevance to Gaga's constant, artistic shape-shifting. I also think it's a very 'bold' title, yet still has a certain ambiguity to it. 

In terms of the relevant album, I'd imagine it would have to have quite an avant-garde, amorphous sound to it - whilst still retaining an element of rawness and grit, since the title is connoting of a more authentic style. Perhaps it would be Joanne meets ARTPOP - a strange combination, but it's Gaga we're talking about here... so who knows.

Visually, Gaga could look to themes of darkness, witchcraft, astrology and magic - all linked to the philosophy of alchemy. Perhaps the wider statement would be synonymous with 'The Art of Darkness' - 'alchemising' something beautiful from the ugliness within, achieved through constant evolution. 

I don't know - just an idea. What do you guys think?

I'm really just using this place as a notebook for my fanfics now... :triggered: sorry guys lol

Reading all this through, AMORPHOUS would be a pretty cool title, too - and it's definitely more in-keeping with the current LG6 vibe. Ahhh... too many ideas :icega:

Maybe something like brooklyn nights but a little bit more stripped back... But I agree it would be mindblowing

I love the witchcraft part. It's also something she has teased many times in the past, like the "maybe I already did [cast a spell]" caption on IG and in A-YO she says "I can't wait to cast my spell"

That rootsy vibe mixed in a psychedelic way could be very interesting. 

I'd prefer something like that down the line tho. The next album maybe shouldnt go too far off the deep end. Haha

You know what first came to my mind? ARTPOP, the title track. 

This is a great example of what I had in mind with 'Alchemy' - even the aesthetic here is relevant:

Now THAT I would do!!!

Reminds me of one of Sheryl's own lyrics, "I dropped acid on a Saturday night to just to see what the fuss is about. And there goes the neighborhood!"
