An album doesn't necessarily need to sound cohesive. Dancin' In Circles and Grigio Girls sound very different. Some people may cosider Grigio Girls as a "filler," but by your definition, why not DIC? It sounds very different from the rest of Joanne. "Basic" is also subjective. It depends on the context of the time period and the album's sound. "...was created to fill up missing space for tracks that didn't make the cut for release" -Ā Did you read what you just wrote? Why would sheāorĀ anyĀ artistāneed to "fill up" the tracklist if they already have songs available to them that they've already recorded throughout the creative process? In every album, Gaga's probably recorded dozens and dozens of songs. Every tracklist she curates represents what the album entails. There's no need to "fill up" the tracklist. If that were the case, she would've just picked another song she already recorded and produced to be a part of the album. "Here we can clearly see that Highway Unicorn was a filler" -Ā That's subjective. Just because you dislike the song doesn't mean it's a "filler." I dislike Telephone. Is that a "filler"? It also doesn't sound "very different/basic" from the rest of BTW. The whole album, actually, is very cohesive.Ā šš¤š¹ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRONG Totally WRONG Filler definition: FillerĀ songs are actually intended to be such by the artist.Ā FillerĀ are songs that a band just rushes through without any real dedication or inspiration, just to meet a deadline for an albums release, or to quickly capitalize on a hit or to literally fill up space Hey Girl: Female empowerment, uplighting each other, true duet in terms of having a back and forth style conversation with your collaborator, Elton and Bowie influences, album highlight Sinner's Prayer: Lyrical gold, heartbreak, leaving a man she doesn't want to, turning to her catholic roots, mentions family, fits within the back to home, stripped down theme of Joanne Fashion! About the art of transformation, feeling good in what you wear, finding your self-confidence through fashion, very Bowie-esque, fits within the theme of ARTPOP Again, you guys need to keep questioning yourselves if the songs that you call fillers fit under the definition of filler and not let your bias towards not liking the songs under question affect it. You continue to upset him buddy. Not good "I was protected by the monks of Azarath, I was raised by my friends. They are my family, this is my home and you are not welcome here."

She probably recorded hundreds of songs, there's a reason sheĀ picked these songs to be on the album ^ Precisely this -Ā a 'filler' is anĀ artefact term.Ā I do notĀ think Gaga in herself is ever short for choice of what she believes is quality material for an album, we all know how long she takes to write and how many songs she probably hasĀ to cut down from to formĀ anĀ album.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fillers, at least imo, are songs that despite whether or not they are good, fail to come near the "peaks" of the album.Ā They are what I consider to be songs she recorded and liked, but on the album, they just fill up space.Ā The ones I picked are personally songs I don't like, but she does have fillers. Bad Kids, while I love the song, is no ScheiĆe or TEOG.Ā I think it's also rather telling that she didn't perform SP or HG on the tour. She might enjoy the album but for many, they are the weaker songs.Ā Then again she doesn't like Money Honey and I love it.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAPA911 169 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 People need to stop calling songs "filler" just because they don't like theĀ track. Gaga is not the type of artist to make a song for no reason and throw it out there.Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
