My faith was restored when she talked about being on the piano in her studio with Bloodpop, and her writing sessions.  She is still super involved in this record even if Bloodpop is taking the helm with his dance production vis a vis sample packs.

Confession: I love stupid love but I’ve been listening to it for 2 months straight and I’m kinda sick of it.

How is that possible? The song's been out less than a month....

I have a theory about #Chromatica and from there part of the Tracklist and the history of the new era can be deduced.

The new era is based on 8 tribes represented by one symbol each, beginning with the love symbol seen in Stupid Love. #Chromatica  It may be based on the Metta or Maitī, which is a Buddhist meditation where the practitioner cultivates selfless love for himself, and then does it with the people he loves, friends, strangers and enemies, until he cultivates love for all living beings.

The Metta or Maitī is expressed thus:

-Love (Stupid Love)

-Kidndess (Kidndess Punk)

-Benevolence (?)

-Friendliness (?)

-Amity (?)

-Good Will (?)

-Sympathy (?)

-Active interest in Others

It is from there where the eight #Chromatica tribes can come off, In addition, the origins of the Metta lie with the Arab States, where the city of Babylon (Babylon) is located in Iraq. Don't judge me, I'm boredETB6Yf9WAAAlAto?format=jpg&name=medium

I know the album will come out on 4/10 and we will get new music that we desperately need. 

but can’t help but wonder how the Chromatica era will be always tainted with the Coronavirus pandemic. Sigh. Anyone feels the same about that?

I agree. In someways this feels like a “return to form” of sorts maybe even a redemption to the way Gaga was during BTW and ARTPOP. And like you said now it’s tainted and will always be a hollow shell of what it could’ve been had there not been worries with being in public etc etc etc 

Inb4 she tweets “The next few months of Chromatica will truly be its beginning because the virus is now gone, and the dreams I have been planning can now come to fruition. Please forgive me that I did not foresee this coming, I never thought after all the years of hard work that a global pandemic would occur. Give me a chance to show you the meaning of seeing colors all around you. Open your hearts to me again that I may show you the joy of us coming together through our talents, that we are stronger as a unit than when we are alone. Let me be for you the Kindness Punk that I know I truly am, let me show you the visions that have been in my mind for two years. I love you. Forgive me monsters. Forgive me Chromatica. You are my whole world.” :teehee:

Yeah, though it's some comfort that EVERYONE is in the same position, and it wasn't another stroke of bad luck that just affected Gaga this time.

That's why I get so frustrated with Little Postponers. They go on and on about the charts and this and that, but charts are contextual and if Gaga is hindered by the pandemic, everyone else will be too.

am i the only monster who is getting a little bit bored with this era already? like we have learnt nothing about this album and it’s less than a month away. no tracklist, no cover. no promo singles yet? please don’t hate, this is just how i feel. i’m not hating, i’m just saying yanno... with joanne we had so much more info. maybe bored isn’t the word, i’m still enjoying stupid love and the music video. i just want to get excited for this album!! but it’s been silent, which is understandable! i just want a lil more

You’re joking, right? At this point I have yet to find one monster that ISN’T bored :triggered:

Chromatica NOT cancelled confirmed :party: 

now everyone can shut up :party: 

Who confirmed it's not cancelled? 

I wonder if not cancelling it will actually help it because they can market it as a healing self isolation album

Stare at the Chartster in the mirror they talk to me too. #StreamFunTonight

Wait a minute. 

This is genius... and makes total, total sense. 

And, remember this tweet:

"Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu,” Lady Gaga tweeted on October 20. The mantra captures the essence of the feelings of love and happiness towards the world, reports IANS. When translated, in simple words, it means “May all beings everywhere be free and happy.”

"An in-depth translation of the mantra reads – “May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all.”

Which literally connects to how metta is about love for all from one's own loving actions. 

We cracked the code -
