Can we please PLEASE stop with the fake CD'S/Vinyls. Stop being fake insiders. Stop teasing and taunting because a lot of us are having a really hard time right now and this album is something that means a lot to a lot of people and by doing things like making a fake leak or claiming you have a cd or a leak (agree to disagree on whether or not someone should listen to leaks) it is harmful. We get our hopes up to have maybe a new song to listen to and get disappointed. It's not funny. It's not cute. Honestly you're just being a d*ck.

Yes. Thank you. There has been absolutely enough major disappointment within the last 30 days- the many smaller buildups to letdowns are not helping.

For an album she said was about “dancing through the pain” and “no matter how bad your day was, you can still dance”, she really didn’t deliver on it. 

Im sorry. I know it’s negative for me to say this but I’m disappointed at the hypocrisy regardless of the circumstances. 
Literally everything feels hollow and cheap, and I still feel betrayed.

I know people are dying, and have lost their jobs (me being one it them) but this album could have made it so much more bearable and provided some sort of semblance of hope- and she literally appointed that as a huge influence behind the project in the first place... 

Yeah, she’s been busy raising money and organized this event for the WHO but as selfish as this sounds I’m going to say it anyway; she’d not even have the leverage if it weren’t for the ones of us who have been starving for this album long before anyone even knew what COVID-19 was and sometimes people need more than money- they need hope and some sort of normalcy.
 

For god sake there was even music as the Titanic sank... we don’t even get that while the world falls a part— at least not from Gaga  anyway. At least Dua, The Weeknd, and Twenty One Pilot fans are getting served. 

As a Gaga fan, it feels like we always lose, always wait, and are always having to speculate. 

Today was supposed to be about having the distraction of dissecting and discovering almost twenty brand new, freshly produced GAGA tracks that we’ve been teased crumbs of for almost 2 years but instead we are just going to have to live with the fact that Gaga and her team decided that we wouldn’t recognize or appreciate the severity of some god awful global event that’s keeping us chained like animals. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

the way I said this when it first got delayed and got for attacked by everyone, but when you suddenly say it, all you get is support. 

ahead of the curve as usual 

in the end, it doesn’t ****ing matter bc we don’t have the album so I guess we rot

THIS is so true

it feels like being a Gaga fan is always waiting for something to happen

we are so used to waiting that even when we get a confirmed date from Gaga we doubt it can be true

When Gaga said "dancing through the pain", she wasn't thinking of a world pandemic...

She isn't going anywhere. It's not like she's become anti-LGBTQ. I think feeling "betrayed" is a bit much. She delayed an album, much like how everything is. It's not a big deal. We're still getting the album.

And it's very entitled to say she wouldn't be successful if it weren't for you. Of course she needs sales, but your one sale isn't going to cut it for a huge star like her who doesn't get the streams like The Weeknd.

Also, Dua and The Weeknd already did all their promo for their albums with multiple videos and singles already out. Adding Dua's leak, their albums were ready. More so the Weeknd, but that was that on the issue.

Again, the album is coming. It's not a big deal. We aren't "chained like animals"... We'll all be listening to it soon. Although I'll thankfully be one who was humble throughout the whole process. 

Looking forward to the Global Citizens event that she has worked so diligently on.

Sometimes I'm worried about some of you. I mean, it's just an album, but the way you said it makes it  really bigger, like it was something you need to live. Ok, you're a fan, I get it, but this isn't healthy in my opinion.

Since it ends up being postponed, cancelled or ignored... all the damn time. ARTPOP app, tours, Chromatica... and the list goes on

Not really an overreaction. Yes we knew it wasn't coming but I mean at least a message or sum from her would mean a lot. Shes been dark this entire era so far. This albums means a hell of a lot to us who really have nothing good happening right now.

She has literally talked to us numerous times about the delay and yet the fans continue to shade her behind the scenes. She hasn't been dark. We got SL, the cover art, two magazine spreads and interviews, got a message addressing the delay numerous times, the new Global citizens show, etc. People need to stop shifting the goal posts.

Está bien, pero eso me pareció súper grosero. 

Todos estábamos pasando por mucho, especialmente con mucho, si la mayoría de nosotros no teníamos trabajo, no calificaríamos para ningún tipo de beneficios, quedarnos atrapados en casa y posiblemente estar enfermos.

Siento lo mismo, el álbum me ha dado algo que esperar durante el día, pero desde el aplazamiento ha sido meh y esta noche fue súper emocional.

I think I made a mess, sorry if I offended you, but it is still a bit unnecessary get sentimental about an album, Gaga has more music that is incredible, we could be locked up listening to the song that we like least. her and so we can discover that this song is not really bad. If I offended someone, I'm sorry, it was not my intention.

[Der Meister 3,000]

I feel like people are gonna be doubting Gaga from now on when it comes with dates and tours. I mean, she cancels everything last minute, you can't do that...

**hugs** 

I am sorry. And don’t worry, the scathing lashings are coming for me, the keyboard assassins just haven’t finished their self righteous responses yet. I don’t post as much as I used to, despite being a member and daily visitor for almost 10 years. I’m as loyal as it comes... But I’m just done with having to be okay with it, and I don’t have to be. At the end of the day the album could have still been released but Gaga chose not to release it.

the cover art was only posted because it was leaked

Lmao sis just let people express how they feel, even if it comes across as maybe excessive to you. Everyone's in quarantine, it's nice to be able to release your emotions anyway or anywhere you can.

You do realize music can be an outlet for a lot of us in tough situations right? "Music saved my life" is a real sentiment. Thats why I got the tattoos I have. Some of us just were really looking forward to having some kind of release or happiness during the time were in rn.
