If she doesnt have a release date by now. I give up.

I highly doubt they have one set in stone at this point. I feel like they're waiting until the spread of the virus starts to slow before setting a concrete date. I could be totally wrong though.

this way this thread has gon from excited, to sad, then to excited, then to all loss of hope *sigh*

If there's resistance
If there's resistance
It makes you stronger
It's not the end
When there's persistence
When there's persistence
You can go farther
Make it your friend

On-topic: It was almost like Gaga was waiting for an excuse to postpone/shelve it. An April 10th release was too good to be true.

The level of drama in this thread astounds me 

Anyway, can we wait until after the concert, which Gaga is clearly focused on right now, before cancelling this whole era and declaring that the album isn't coming? It would be insane to expect any album news before that.

It was WAY too good to be true

i don’t understand the “she’s focused on this” argument. it’s not that hard to snap a pic of the track list and write a 5 min blurb. or address her album literally at all since it was postponed. or to even sing a 20 second cover of stupid love on her story for it to regain a little bit of traction again, but it’s going to die a tragic death and it this point, it kind of deserves it.

It was. It never comes easy with Gaga.

I mean other than MVs, some at-home performances and skype interviews... what else can they do? Which is to say... I don't see a reason why this new strategy needs to take so long to figure out.

I HOPE the at home performances (if they happen) are higher quality than these dreadful DIY ones everyone's been doing. Give me production value damnit. 

-Gagavisions based on previously unreleased BTS footage.

- Assuming the documentary is true, I’m sure that can be edited from someone’s home.

-Give exclusivity to 4-5 tracks and let a well known publication give an early review of the album to create hype.

-Live stream with Ari to announce ROM.
 

- Film herself in the studio singing to the instrumentals.

-Call in to radio stations.
 

- Howard stern, Zane Lowe, Zach sang interviews which are all always very popular and insightful because they’re good interviews 

And that’s without all the stuff she’s already had planned And is ready and waiting to release when promo starts again.

andddd if restrictions get lifted a bit in June - go to a closed set with a skeleton crew and perform in an empty venue using drones and only one or two other camera men, 2 back up dancers and create a multimedia performance of 4-5 tracks of the album using green screen & AR technology (this last one is the least plausible but I have ideas of how I would produce it lmao)

Kim K is literally filming KUWTK at her home. I think y’all are underestimating how much can be accomplished in quarantine. 

edit: I’ve thought about this a lot in my free time

Do people get warning points for flamebaiting? lol

[culturalbaptism 2,969]

Everyone but Gaga is coming. A pity.

I heard it and it sounds just like a noise reduction / filtering of the leaked snippet (maybe to extract the acapella)

Thought that too but the extended "BabylloOOoonnnN" and the "dance for your life" isn't in the snippet

Some users are surprised to be ignored when they don't spread online kindness.

On-topic: I'd rather think the worst, that Gaga will shelve the whole ****.

This post and putting the idea of her shelving the era is not only also not promoting online kindness but also just mean

is not th efirst time she cancels something that is already about to be released...

the only thing that give me hope are the cover art release and the preorders

We deserved better as 10+ year stans.

that's a terrifying thought & shouldn't be spoken into existence
