GagaXCollection 7,723 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 1 hour ago, Didymus said: God no. A song she deliberately wrote to not be a Gaga song can never be her most important song She wrote that song for a movie she didn't write, for a character that, by her own admission, is nothing like her. How can that compare to her previous hits? Edit: Don't get me wrong, I love the song, and I think some of the songs on the soundtrack are among the best she's ever recorded but I would never consider them the most "important" ones of her career. They don't represent her imo I Will Always Love You isn't even a Whitney song but it is one of her most important hits ladygagaxcollection.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy 11,889 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Wouldn’t JD be the most important since it gave her a career in the first place? Or rather, the chance to seize a career. JD was her best opportunity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they are Just Dance, Poker Face, Bad Romance, Alejandro (in latin america and spain), Born This Way and now Shallow. All those are in the same epic level of impact. We seem to forget because of a few years of not-so-much impact (million reasons exists but is not at the high level of those, it stands next to TEOG, huge hit but not as big as the ones I listed)., but she has quite a few. Of course if we have to pick one it would be bad romance because it was the one that gave her the STATUS she has (just like Thriller for MJ, even tho he has more songs as impactful as that). Alejandro was huge all over the Europe I remember those times.... My mom loves the song to this day. Also TEOG was huge here as well.

They don't represent her imo I don't think the separation of Gaga and Ally is as clean cut as she would like throughout ASIB OST. Yes, WDYDT isn't a Gaga sound, but Shallow? Hmmm... if you listen to Gaga talk about Shallow, the song's universal themes clearly resonate with her. In her own words, she thinks people are drawn to the song because we live in a shallow time and sincere conversations between men and women are increasingly rare. Also, remember the lyrics of that unreleased Joanne track Dark Blue were very very similar to Shallow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felixorfelicia 1,798 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 It only is if you care about charts. I don’t and for me Born This Way, Bad Romance etc are far more important Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her main albums were just as impersonal as The Bodyguard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefani and Gaga are one and the same though. Ally was created for a movie and she didn’t even think of the character’s name. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wet Fire 7,657 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 It is one of her most important songs. People don't see it as an Ally song lol. They see it as a Lady Gaga song. However, Just Dance, Poker Face, Bad Romance and BTW have had bigger impact than Shallow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adakam 2 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 4 hours ago, monketsharona said: It is part of her most important songs But Bad Romance; Poker Face, Just Dance, Paparazzi and Born This Way made her legacy and where she is right now. Absolutely, all of those put her in the map and made her a major Pop force. But they were still inside the wall of pop music for young audiences. Shallow broke that barrier and has attracted people from all genres and ages. She has done many things in recent years that changed the perception of many people, like C2C, Sound of Music tribute, National Anthem, etc. But you would still find people saying stuff like "if she is that talented, why does she do all that other crap?". Shallow shattered all of those expectations, and it has reached people everywhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serial Chiller 8,044 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Bad Romance remains unbothered. Well, slightly bothered because Shallow may peak at #1 and she will forever be a BB #2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But get Shallow to #1 regardless because it deserves it and more Well Just Dance was super important to make her famous in the first place Poker Face was a huge commercial hit that made her a force Bad Romance is still her most iconic to date And now Shallow to resurect her career I'd say those 4 are her most important Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
